Circumstances Under Which the Senator May Secure the Democratic Nomination. ‘The talk of Gorman as a candidate for Presi- dent seems to be spreading. The work that is being done in the interest of the Marylander is very subtile and his friends are keeping very quiet. They are trying to dixguire nny effort on their part to help along the boom, but at the same timea considerable amount of work is being done im a quiet way and its strength lies largely in the secreey maintained | as tothe most important movements. growing itapression with many that there islittle chance of 1iill’szetting the nomination, and believe that Hill will he able to prevent its goi to Cleveland. ‘Lhis turns attention to the pos sible candidates outeide the state of New York, and Gorman is most prominentiy spoken of. Most of the anti-Cleveland folks are ready to turn to this shrewd politician, and he is said to be far less objectionable to the Cleveland sup- pozters than others who are mentioned. Some Itisa two yeurs ago it was generally under- stood that Cleveland and Gorman were at outs, but all differences appear now to have been made up. It is said that Cle willbe acandidete until it appears beyond doubt thgt there is no chance of his getting the nomination and that Gorman and the Marylaud delegation will support him, but if he ‘ails— if Hill ean contol the New York delegation against him—the Cleveland forces, so far as he can control them, will be thrown’ over to Gor- man. ON WHAT HIB CHANCES DEPEND. The Marylander’s chances seem to depend upon the failure of Cleveland to get control of the New York delegation, yet Gorman is cred- ited by Cleveland people with working for their cause. ‘The one thing that they are all anxious for is the renomination of ap eastern man, and Clevciaud folks believe that if the’ ex-President is not nomi- nated the nomination will not go to w York. ‘There are several other eastern candidates who might then be considered as available—as Pattison, Russell, Abbot or Me- herson—but an important consideration wiil e to get an eastern man who will not be objec- tionable to the south and west. All these men might appear to the people of those sections as gold-bugs servants of Wall street, but G: man has endeared himself to the south by hi | fight on the force bill, and his luat vote on the silver question was’ for a iree coinage b which will go pretty well with the west, while the eastern democrats belicve that this was a strategic vote cast in the interest of another cause. THE STATE OF THINGS IN NEW YORK, Since the Gorman boom is not apt to amount to anything in the end unless Cleveland fails to secure the New York delegation, his supporters have reason to watch affairs in’ New York with considerable interest, and there they discover cat evidences of strength on tle part of Cleveland’s friends. doing some active and some very clever work. Ever since they got Hill into the senatorship trap the friends of Mr. Cleveland, it is claimed, have had the governor ata disadvantage. He still has control of the machine in the state, which gives him power to do harm, but which his opponents believe he cannot operate so as to give him the delegation. Mr. Hill made some active enemice when he first tried to control and then him- himself accepted the election to the Senate, and he has added to the number of these enemies by his action with relation to the nomination for governor. ‘The Cleveland people are at work with their old time vigor and shrewdness and in this contest as to the nomination for governor they appear to have ontwitted Hill. It is genvrally admitted that. the most prob- able thing at present is the nomination of Flower. The situation favorable to Flower is understood to have been brought about by the Cleveland people. ‘Their work in this cou- nection was very subtile. They first brought a favorable cousideration of Flower by Hill people, by themselves holding off, and then, when the Hill people had gone too far to retreat in good order, it was developed that Flower was just the man that the Cleveland s:pporters wanted nominated. Flow- er's nomination is now regarded as almost a certainty, and with it will come, it is believed, increased strength for Cleveland. Recognizing this and that it will greatly lessen Hills chancesto get the nomination for the preei- dency, the Hill people may turn around and work for Gorman. a THE ARGENTINE REPUBLIC. An Abstract of Its Financial Budget for 1892. The bureau of American republics has re- ceived an abstract of the budget for 1892 sub- mitted by the minister of finance of the Argen- tine Republic. ‘The estimated receipts are $44,740,000 gold and #16,720,000 curreney. The estimated expenditure is $27,640,000 gold and 250,990,000 currency, leaving surplus of $17,100,000 gold and a deficit of €37,270,000 car- rency. Estimating #259 currency equal to £100 gold there will be a net surplus of ‘The minister includes in expenditures of $15,000,000 currency to be burnt in case there is any surplus.

An increase in duties, amounting in all to 319S,600,is proposed on the following articles: Tobacco, from 56 per centad valorem to 60; matches from 45 per centad valorem to 50; perfumery, from 50 per cent ad valorem to 60. ‘The expenses of ad- ministration are set down at $30,576,249 cur- reney. The Ki In his report to the department relating to his experiments in producing rain by explosions Col. Dyrenforth says that after each explosion so far made under proper conditions there has followed rain. The rain came sometimes im- mediately after the explosion, while upon one occasion it was four hours before precipitation set in. It is not admitted that these falls could have been mere coincidences, because they oc- curred ina region which had been for # long time aftiicted with cxcessivedryness. The areas upon which these rains descended have varied from four to ten or twelve miles, with the point of explosion us the practical center. Col. Dyrenforth does not, however, conclude that his work has gone far enough toestab- lish indabitably what be so firmly holds—that is, that where there is rain above it, it cau be brought to the earth by his methods or im- rovetncnts upon those methods—but he has no TiSsstion fo anying that the problem is soived to his own satisfaction as far as the principle is concerned. sauce eee co ee Marriage Licenses.

REPORT OF TRE COM’ TTEN TO DRAFT RESOLU- TIONS RELATIVE TO THE DEATH OF PRESIDENT WINCHELL—YOREIGN DELEGATES AND THOSE FROM THIS COUNTRY. The audience that assembled this morning in the law lecture hall of the Columbian University to attend the second day's sestion of the Geo- jogical Society of America was not a large one. It was, however, made up of many of the lead- ing writers and teachers of geology in this and foreign countries. The coming together of such anctable body of some of the leading | geologists of the world is an event of more than usual interest. To the average Jay mind the printed program of papers presents noth- ing very attractive, but to men who give their days to the study of geology it presented an opportunity of hearing from men of world: | wide reputation the results of their investiga~ tion of knotty aud complicated questions. So when President Gilbert called the society to order he looked upon a group of men whose earnest faces indicated their absorbing interest. TRIBUTE TO THK LATE PRESIDENT. From the committee appointed to draft ap- Propriate resolutions relative to the death of Dr. Alexander Winchell, the president of the Prof. Orton made a report which was adopted. The resolutions reported yay a just and touching tribute to tie character of the deccased und fittingly acknowledged the great services which he had rendered to the science in the course of the forty years of arduous and unremitting toil, which he had devoted to its investigation. To his writings and lectures Was attributed ina great degree the growing liberality and enlargemeut of thought of the more eericts-minded portion of thecommunity | iu regard to the theory of organic evolution as Presented by Darwin and b" successors. | Dr. inchell, the report affirmed, stated and de- fended with marked ability and courage and persuasive power this the most characteristic and far-reaching doctrine of modern geological sciencz, “Ihe first enunciation of this doc- trine,” the report stated, “was sure to awaken distrust and even’ bitter hostility among alarge class of people because of its ap- parent incompatibility with some of their most fundamental convictions and beliefs. To dis- regard the sincere apprehension of this great class, comprising, as it does, so much of the moral and intellcetual force of the beady poli- tic. would be heartless. To mock at its tcars, ill founded though they were, would be w: % What worthier service to science and the cot- munity than to disarm hosiility by showing that the evolutionary philorop so far from ading end dishonoring man, makes him in 4 peculiar sense the head and crown of the creation.” In seconding the resolutions Dr. C. A. White paid a warm tribute to Dr. Winchell, with whom he had been on terms of intimacy for many yeare. Asa further mark of respect the resolutions were adopted by a rising vote. DR.
