Fourteen American ofllcers have been detailed to study tho bloody s.cienco with tho armies of the east. They will bo guests of tho Mikado and tho Czar. The increase of our merchant ma rine was only a quarter as great last year as the jear before. This looks as if a ship subsidy bill would be found useful. Congressman Dick- of Ohio, a close friend and lieutenant of Senator Hanna, deceased, has been elected by tho Ohio legislature to the Iatter's seat in the United States senate. The 3,00O,0O0 worth of now Philip pine four percent bonds seem likely to bo taken with avidity. Thoy are issued in accordance with the policy "Tho Phillipines for the Filipinos." Tho Japanese seem to be able to take considerable military exercise, although their diet is confined to rice, greens and llsh.

In tho lower houso of congress he will bo succeed ed by Mr. E. L. Lampson, who has been lieutenant governor of Ohio and prominent in politics for tho last twenty years. As tho Buckeye stato goes so goes the rest of tho world I There is oven Republican harmony in New York stato and tho three great leaders, Gov. Odell and Senators Piatt and Depew, aro all agreed, and each is welcomo to tho conlldenco of tho president. Senator Depew is a candidate for re-election and there ap pears to be llttlo opposition.

A great calm has fallen on Repub lican politicians since the death of Senator Hanna, and the soap-bubble character of tho various "booms" for president, other than the present oc cupant of tho white house, has been demonstrated. The president is mak ing no special effort to pick out a manager for the coming campaign; a manager hardly seems to be needed. Everything Is falling into place like clock-work. Mr. Dover, private sec retary to Senator Hanna, takes the place made vacant by tho resignation of Perry Heath, and for the present prominent Republicans will look after the larger Interests of the party. It Is now known that Senator Hanna had the most sincere friendship and the highest regard for tho president, and that he was not the man to carry a knife up bis sleeve. There is no longer a Foraker factional fight in Ohio; if there were any aspirants in that state for Hanna's vacant seat they have generously declined to come forward, and all are willing that Con gressman Dick should become the new senator.
