Bayou Sara, La, Nov. 1.—A can- vass made by correspondents among political leaders from a majority of the Republican states—senators gov- ernors and representatives, aboard the presidential fleet—indicates that the insurgents thamselves in congress have underestimated the strength of the movement which they initiated at Washington last winter.

Names of tentative candidates for speaker who are under consideration have been reported in confidence to the corruspondents and If made pub- lte would astound some of the intimate Gannon coterie.

One of the prospective speakership | candidates is from New England; an- other is from a state hard by the New England division. Two come from sister states in the Upper Mis- sissippi valley; one is from Nebraska and a Pacific coast representative, who has been prominently identified with the existing. house organizaticn but who 1s ready to break away, is the last one to be suggested.
