I organization of the republicans in a city normally a republican stronghold, fraud | ulent legistration, repeating and corrup tion. They insisted that the fusion or ganization would be continued and per fected. Mayor Julius Fleischmann said: “Tile election of the entire republican ticket is a victory for the people of Cin cinnati. They have filed protest against the defamation of their fair name. This triumph means not only that Cincinnati ! will continue to progress as she lias progressed during the tjiist three years, but it means that the mist governor will be a republican, that Marcus A. Hanna will be returned to the senate and that Theodore Roosevelt will be the next pres ident of the United States.” Results Throughout Ohio. While the republicans had material gains in the municipal election in Ohio i today, they did not secure many changes in the administration of the cities. The most notable exception was at Columbus, where Mayor Hinkle, democrat, was suc -1 ceeded by Jeffrey, republican. The may ors of all the large cities except Colum bus were reelected. The repuolicans re tained control of Cincinnati and the dem ocrats of Cleveland, and Samuel M. Jones was elected as an independent for the fourth time as mayor of Toledo. The democrats elected their tickets at Dayton. Sandusky, Chillicothe. Hamilton and other cities normally democratic, and the republicans at Stuebenville, Youngs town, Warren, Ironton, Portsmouth and other towns that they have heretofore controlled. The winning tickets were of either of the dominant parties. The fu ; sion tickets, as a ’rule, were defeated in a dozen or more cities where they were In the field. One of the most notable gains of the republicans was at Mains fleld. and of the democrats at Spring field. were local issues controlled results, as was the case tn most of the changes. Puts Johnson to Fore. i There is much diversity of opinion as 1 to the effect of these municipal elections * upon the next republican nomination for governor, but it is conceded that Mayor Tom D. Johnson, of Cleveland, will now b. "ome a formidable candidate of the d'-mocratic nomination for governor a few months hence. The Ingalls organization will be. continued with a view of making him the democratic opponent of Hanna for the senatorship. There is consider able gossip here tonight about the in cipient boom . i Mayor I’leiscb ma mi tor the republican nomination fur governor, it is conceded that, the indorsement of Mavor Fl isehmann's administration maitilv produced tile result, in Cincin n..ti, the largest plurality on the .arg, -t total vote in the history of the city. Mav.ir Julius Fleischmann said: “The election of the entire republican ticket is a victory of the people of Cin cinnati. This triumph means that the n xt governor will be a republican, that Marcus A.

Senator M Hanna today gave the Associated Press the following brief statement concerning the result of yesterday's electi m: “While the result in Cleveland is dis app'inting to the republicans, th. . ff. cl will be to stimulate them to greater ef fort m the future campaigns. The re sult by no means shakes my faith in the belief that we can carry this tt'uyahogai county next fall. The general situation in the state continues favorable to the republican party. M A.

Traffic over the Grand Isle road is in terfered with by the Magnolia trouble below the city. Passengers have to be transferred at that point until a new line of track can be laid, as a mud box to protect the weak levee at Magnolia, is being constructed over the tracks of the railroad. The work at Hymelia went along with out interruption today. The utmost cau tion is still required to protect the crib bing from washing. Sacking, however, is constantly' increasing its strength.

All day a terrific current swept around th" broken ends of the cribbing and through the great 700-foot gap in the levee, undermining the light, idling which it had taken thirteen days and nights to build. Early In th" fore noon it became evident that any eflort to build fresh cribbing to point the ends would 1»- futile and every energy was directed to protecting what was left. Considerable success attended these ef forts and the sacking of other portions of lhe cribbing continued, but il was gen erally’ understood that a complete sur render would be made to the river to morrow' if the experiment of driving S. w'ill piling across the break hi the cribbing fails.

Members of th Lafourche levee board, engineers and representatives of the planters and railroads were concerned in the conference.- A proposition to close tlie break with sheet piling for SIO,OOO was considered and rejected on the ground that it was not feasible. It was learned from the crevasse today that both wings of the cribbing are still holding firmly and that the broken ends are no longer washing. This has en couraged the hope that something can still be done to reduce the duration and extent of overflow. V telegram was sent to Governor Heard, who is at Caiancio. La., asking his approval of th, plan to rcsuim work. If the crevasse can be controlled the benefit of the planters and those de pendent upon them will be inestimable.
