The One Topic at Political Headquarters— Republican Efforts in the South. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star, New York, Sept. 27.—-Mr, Cleveland's letter of acceptance is the chief topic of discussion here today. Itis commented upon as lacking the vigorous style that characterized many of his previous documents, and its uncertain tone in many of its features is attributed to the dif- ference of opinion existing in the democratic party upon the issues af the campaign and be- element of the party. The republicans are juite tified, however, with its attitude on ¢ tariff question, and feel that the issues are sharply made both by the platform and by Mr. Cleveland bimvelt. as statement is made here , On apparent authority, that the republicans have decided to make an ive cam in, Missouri, North ‘Carliua, Alabama, West Virginia and Tennessce. This conclusion has been reached after receiving reporta from the three differ- ent commissions sent to view the field. It is further stated that assistance will be given to twenty-four congressional districts in other southern states, notably Vi: inix, South Carolina, Georgia and Texas. Tho roads which the people's party has made on the white vote in many of the southern states lead to the conclusion that work of this char- acter may.be effective. tae eee IN WALL STREET TODAY.
