DEPEW'S OWN CHANCES Enhanced by His Diplomatic Din- ner Party. * MORTON’S SUNSTROKE a GOV. The year preceding a national convention is a trying time for every candidate whose name is mentioned for presidential hon- crs. Incidents that would not figure in the reputation of a politician under ordi- nary circumstances are taken up and mag- nified, and the slightest action or mishap may be cause to appear of enough im- portance to decide the contest. Gov. Merton’s Sunstroke. The fact that Gov. Morton was overcome by the heat in New York yesterday while watching a parade has been taken up by politicians here, and some fear is express- ed that in that slight oceurrence may be lost Mr. Morton’s chances for the nomina- tion. When Mr. Morton has been talked of for the presidency the chief objection rais- ed against him has been his advanced years and alleged not vigorous health. Be- fore he became governor of New York this talk was indulged in very freely, but after entering upon a vigorous administration of the affairs of that state, after having worked’ at his desk day after day with the energy of a young man, having followed a course of independenc2 in regard to state appointments and in every way shown an ability and physical strength which greatly surprised the politicians, the talk of his advanced age grew unpopular. Now that he has been overcome by the heat these old stories are being revived, and they are not likely to help Mr. Morton's cause, al- though what occurred to him was in no way serious and might have taken place in the case of almost any middle-aged and vigorous man. Mr. Morton's little mishap is the second that has visited the presi- dential candidate during the past week, the first being that of Mr. McKinley, who suf- fered a routing defeat at the hands of the Foraker men in the Ohio state convention at Zanesvilie. Glad He Was in the Woods. There are politicians who do not hesitate to say that Mr. Reed views with a great deal of pleasure his ability to get into the Canadian fishing regions where the tele- graph cannot reach him. They essert that Mr. Reed feels severely the dangers that lurk about every act of a public man who aspires to the presidency. Many believe that Mr. Reed is sincerely glad that he could not attend Mr. Depew’s dinner in New York, as he will be readily excused for not having received the invitation in time to accept it. Beyond the reach of the interviewer and away from all temptations to make a mistake of any kind in his polit- ical course, Mr. Reed can secure complete Test, so that he will be in good ccndition to take up the very important duties that await him in the place which he will doubt- less {lll as Speaker of the Hcuse of Rep- resentatives. Mr. Depew's Chances Advanced. It is generally believed that Mr. Depew's harmony dinner has done as much to ad- vance the candidacy of Mr. Depew himself for the presidency ¢s it has to bring about harmony in the republican party. Mr. De- pew has indorsed Gov. Morton for the nom- ination, and in this act it would appear that he had relinquished his own claim to the high ofiice; but, of course, Mr. Depew’s word does not settle the matter so long as he fails in positive terms to say that he will not under any circumstances head the republican ticket. He has not done that, but ft Is generally understood that his ratl- road connections are so remunerative, and his fear so great that those connections would operate against him vastly among the masses of the people if he should head the ticket, that he prefers to maintain his present position in his party. But if the romination should be presented to Mr. Depew there are many members of his par- ty who think that he would not throw it away if, in the judgment of others, he could be successful in the race. So many republicans now believe that any good republican could win that it is ques- tioned whether Mr. Depew’s railroad con- nections will be so impertant a handicap as they have been regarded in the past. At any rate Mr. Depew has figured as an arch diplomat in the most important role that is to be played among republicans be- fore the next national election comes off. He has proven himself to be a harmonizer, and that is just what the republican party wants. Reed Scores a Point. People who are well acquainted with Mr. Reed do not hesitate to say that the Maine statesman does not regard pretentious and lavish entertainments as at all conducive to the popularity of a presidential candi- date among the great mass of the voters of the country. In this day when so much is being said of the antagonism between capital and labor, it is asserted that Mr. Reed would much rather be out taking a holiday in the woods than to have it heralded over the country that he was at the banquet board of one of the greatest railroad presidents of the world. So that while both McKinley and Morton have had &ppearances during the last few days that may be used against their candidacy, Mr. Reed’s friends think that he has really scored a good point. o—____. WILL DECLARE FOR SILVER. Almost Certain Action of the Ohio Democrats. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 29, 1895. It is almost certain that the democratic state convention will declare in favor of free silver. The free silver sentiment seems to generally pervade the party. Senator Brice has declared war upon the free silver movement as he sees it, and announced his intention to prevent the adoption of a free silver resolution in the convention. He will have hard work to do so. Thé fight is al- ready on. The Senator will strive to have a late date set for the state convention. This he will work for, in order to have time to counteract the work already done by the friends of free silver. He and his friends believe also that the times will improve rapidly from now on, and that by the close of summer the so-called “calamity” argu- ment of the free silver advocates will have disappeared. ‘Thurman, E. B. Finley, Editor Holden of the Cleveland Plaindealer and other free silver advocates are asking that the con- vention be called at once. As the chair- man, A. W. Smalley, is a close friend of Senator Brice, the latter will probably win this preliminary contest at least. —.——__ Faneral of an Old Employe. Mr. Louis Burgdorf, an cld and valued clerk in the treasury cash room, died at his residence, 1027 8th street, yesterday morn- ing, in the seventy-fifth year of his age. His funeral took place this afternoon from his late residence, under the auspices of Lafay- ette Lodge, No. 19, F. A. A. M., of which he was a member. His associates in the cash room sent a beautiful cross and wreath of white roses and immortelles. Mr. Burg- dorf held many places of trust, and leaves an umblemished reputation. He was a messenger at the White Heuse from the time of President Polk to the administra- tion of President Johnson, and in a humble capacity assisted in the preparation of the emancipation proclamation. In April, 1866, he was transferred to duty in the cash room, and he served-there faithfully in a responsible clerical capacity up to the time of his death. —_>__ Indian Head Trips. The popular Indian Head trips will begin tomorrow night, the steamer Macalester leaving her wharf at 6:30. No trips have so won the favor of the public as these beautiful sails on the Potomac, and it is a foregone conclusion that the boat will be crowded every evening from now on. —.__. Ex-Congressman Butterworth delivered a Memorial day oration last evening at Music Hall, Cincinnati, and Gen. Alger at the Grand Opera House. 7 THE WORLD OF SOCIETY.

Miss Talty at a re- cent concert at the convent school which she attends was prominent among the vocalists. Mr. and Mrs. J. M. McGrew left last night for Minrequa Springs, Pa., where they have taken a house for the summer, hoping that the change will be of benefit to the former, who has been confined to nis room for six months. They will be ac- companied by Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Smith, and expect to be joined later by Mrs, Wick- ersham of Mobile, Ala., and Mrs. Dr, Bal- loch of this city. Mr. and Mrs. Charles E.
