10 THE EVENING STAR, MONDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1896-TWELVE PAGES. THE STARS CAMPAIGN NEWS FROM ‘THE POL A SLIGHT REACTION Democrats in Ilincis Seem to Have Regained Courage. THEIR CLAIM AS 10 THE POLLS Effect of Col. Morrison's Attack on Gov. Altgeld. THE LEGISLATURE Correspondence of The Evening Star. CHICAGO, October 23, 1806. Surface indications continue to favor the republicans in Illinois, but at the same time there seems-to be a slight reaction. While the republicans are still confident that McKinky will carry Ilinois, and by a big majority, they are beginning to feel nervous about it. On the other hand, the democrats seem to have regained some of their courage. They now make boasts of success and appear to be more in earnest about it than they were. While Bryan is In the air more than before, it is difficult to find grounds for the claims of the democrats. Every poll 1s agains* them. A very careful poll was made by the republican county commit- tee in Chicago, and this showed that out of 306,00) people Interviewed a majority of 110,000 were for McKinley, and in this estimate the republicans have deducted 25,000 voters who either refused to answer the questions asked or declared them- selves for Palmer, or one of the minor candidates. Polls of factories ard other labor centers, office buildings, and, in fact, every poll, including that which has been made by the Kecord, show the same re- sults. What the Democrats Claim. That these polls may be correct Is freely admitted by the democrats. That Is to say, they concede the figures to be ac- curately added and the men who take down the arswers to their those whom they contend that the are going to vo They the polls put questions as given by interrogated.

Put ask them for names and facts, and they will not furnish them. The frresistible conclusion is that the talk is bluff. Ground for Democratic Confidence. t Some ground for the democratic confi- dence may be found in the fact that Alt- geld has been making a tour of the state and Pryan entered it at Danville this morn- Ing. Much is expected from Bryan's speeches, although experience does not seem to show that the expectation is justifiable. Altgeld has been making many speeches, and his meetings have been attended by the largest audiences of the year. Twice as many pco- ple attended Altgeld’s meeting on the sou Side night before last as attended “Tom” Reed's address at the same point. It m@st be remembered, however, as has been pointed out in these letters, that Altgeld's vote will be much larger than that of Bryan. The republican leaders concede, in private, that if McKinley's majority is jess than 50,00) Tanner will probably be beaten for governor. This fs In splte of the fact that the republicans are using every effort to get the members of their party to vote the straight ticket. But polls which show McKinley in the lead often show Altgeld also ahead. One was made at a factory recently, which showed: McKinley, 2 Bryan. 21. The same men voted: Altgeld, 161; Tanner, £9. This poll Is exceptional, but ft suffices to show the strong hold Alt geld has upon the workingmen. Belief as to Altzeld. Morrison's attack on Altgeld was a great surprise. It was believed that Morrison would at least tacitly support the regular party ticket. The bold:y reiterated charges against Altgeld of dishonesty, malfeagance in office and m!sappropriation of state funds coming from a man of Morrison’s prominence cahnot fall of effect. It will net have much in northern Ilinois, but down fu Egypt, where Mortison is the biggest man the party ever had, and where he has still @ strong following, it will have a great ef- fect. Ben T. Cable sa!d to The Star cor- respondent that he thought it would cost Altgeld 20,000 votes. It is believed that Morrison will vote the Palmer ticket. The democratic managers affect to be- lieve that the attack wil! amount to nothing, but the broadside from the veteran is not relished by them. nevertheless. Various reasons have been given for Mor- rison’s attack. One that has not been much discussed, but is probably as strong as any suggested, is that the democrats have in- dorsed Jehu Baker in Morrison's old con- gressional district. Baker will be remam- bered in Washington as the man who de- feated Morrison for Congress and forced him out of the att halls at Washing- ton, to which the Egyptian statesman has not since returned. Morrison's friends have been very scre over this, and they are like- ly to resent it. Morrison's letter may have the effect of ‘nsuring the defeat of Baker. Danger Spot to the Republicans. The danger spot in the republican cam- Paign seems to be the legislature At Present it consists of 204 members, with a republican majerity of 44 on joint ballot. The democrats hope to be able- to over- come this through fusion and send Altgeld to the Senate. The republicans are di- vided In several districts. Many of their caudlidates have nasty records and bitter local fights are being made in many sec- tions. The members are elected under an apporticnment made by the democyats for the purpose of perpetuating their pow- er, but which failed of its purpose at the late election. They believe, however, that if the republican majority is less’ than 50,000 they will be able to elect a succes- sor to Senator Palmer. : William E. Mason will not follow Bryan around when he fs in Chicago. This was the intention, but it has been abandoned. It was learned that Mason would meet with a warm reception. It had been ar- Fatged to pelt him with decayed hen fruit and vegetables when he entered democratic bailiwicks. This was broadly intimated by Secretary Burk of the democratic coun- ty committee and 1s believed to be respon- sible for the determination not to let Ma- son follow Eryen, as intended. It was considered that discretion would be the better part of valor. NEGLECT OF THE Halk OFTEN DESTROYS ITS vitality and natural bue and causes it to fall out. Before it is too late apply Hail’s Hair Renewer— a sure remedy. BOTH CLAM IT. Twe Estimates to the Result in Michigan, Correspondence of The Evening Star. GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., October 22, 1806. Chairman Fred A. Baker of the popo- cratic state central committee has given out a statement claiming Michigan for Bryan by 20,000. .He bases his claim on the eiection returns of four years ago. The re- Publicans polled 220,000, democrats 202,000, populists and prohibitionists each 20,000. He figures that Bryan will receive half the prohibitionist vote, which will more than offset the sound money democratic defec- tion. The populist vote will be solid for Bryan, making the popocrat vote equal to the republican vote of two years ago, and the gains from free silver republicans will be clear velvet. He estimates that there are at least 500 free silver republicans in each of the eighty-five counties of the state, taking the average, on a total of 42,500. Mr. Baker then cuts this silver re- publican vote in two, as a precaution #gainst undue confidence, and points to 21 as the Bryan plurality in the state. The claim is not based on anything like a canvass of the state, nor on observations made by experienced political workers, but seems to be figured out chiefly to suit the occasion. The republicans admit some losses to free silver, especially in the southern part of the state, but claim that it -vill not amount to 5 per cent of the total republican vote, or 11,40 in all. This loss will be more than offset by a gain of 5 per cent from the democrats, and the democrais will lose 5 per cent more to the Palmer and Buckner ticket. The populisi vote is conceded solid to the popocrats, but nat above 2 per cent of the prohibitionists will go that Way, and as many will go for McKinley. The total voie four years ugo was 465,000 againsi 475,00 eight years ago. This year the total vote will probably reach 500,W0, and the republicans claim the gain will be largely in their favor. Tie republican claims are not based on a thcrough can- vass in any part of the state, because it lias beer found impossible to make such a can- vass. The wcrkingmen in the cities and the farmers out in the country have alike been reticent in regard to their political predilection or what they will do on elec- tion day. Many of the sirewdest and keen- est politicians in the state are in the re- publican ranks, however, and the estimates given are as they figure it out on a con- servative basis. None of them will admit that taking the state through the repubii- can loss will reach 5 per cent, and many of them estimate that the republican gain from the old democracy will be at least 10 per cent, with a further loss of 5 per cent to Paimer and Buckner. Yhe republicans have made a leading card of the tariff in the rural districts the past month, and this wil undoubtedly hoid many reoublican farmers in line. For the go down the home stretch the pepocra:s have Vice President Stevenson, T. J. Mahoncy, E. B. Howells and Charles Haruman or Meniana, John Marron of Pennsylvania, Gen. Weaver of Iowa, J. H. toiman cf Kochesier, M. W. Meagher of sui.ois aid “Coin” Harvey of auino.s, aud hope to secire Gov. Altgeld. George Fred Wunams spoke ims Wee« at Uetiuit and other puints.

The court holds that the democratic’ people’s union silver party, the sound money democrats and na- tional prohibitionists are all new parties and their positions on the ballot must be governed by the order in which the ticket are filled. The republicans and prohibition- ists are “regular’’ and are entitled to first and second place, respectively. ee OUTLOOK IN OREGON. The Vote Close and the Either Way, Small. spondence of Tne Evening Star. PORTLAND, Oreg., October 19, 1896. The closer grows November 3 the stronger grow the claims of the popocrats for vic- tory in Oregon, and the weaker those of the republicans. Beyond a question, the vote in Oregon will be close, and the result will be considerably less than 5,000, which- ever way the state may go. Today I have talked with one who is probably the most prominent republican in the state. He has traveled little, it is true, but he has been in torrespondence with persons in every corner of the state. His opinion is well worth publishing, and thig is it: | "Phe result in Oregon depends entirely upon what Portland city and Multnomah | county will do. Bryan will come to this county with a majority. How great no one iknows. To oppose this we will do our best here in this county. I look for 5,000 ma- jority for McKinlcy in Multnomah. If he has this, the state will be saf@ and Mc- | Kinley given a neat majority. I know | there are many who think the vote outside | of this county will be a stand-off, but I ! feei sure it will not. Bryan will certainly come here with 2,000 votes to the good. if it is no more, and I don’t think it will be, McKinley will have between 2,000 and 3,000 the more votes, and Oregon's electoral vote will be properly recorded in the republican column.” ‘The Palmer-Buckner vote is going to cut @ greater figure in the Multnomah county vote than most people imagine. There are a@ great many democrats who will not vote for McKinley, though opposed to the teach- ings of Bryan. They agree fully with Mc- Kinley upon the financial question, but up- on all other questions differ with him. Be- sides, they have voted the democratic ticket all their lives, and will not now vote for a republican. The nomination of Paimer has given them a candidate, and for him a reat many will vote. Over in Washington the Bryan men have things their own way, and it seems now ‘ to be an assured fact that not only will the state go for Bryan, but that both Con- gressmen will be popocrats, and the legis- lature for free silver. I was on Puget sound this week, and I found this to be the sentiment. Even supporters.of McKinley expressed the opinion that they would lose the state. Idaho will also cast its vote for Bryan. California is very much in doubt, though the Indications point to McKinley. Wyoming, having nothing but parture lands, is safe for McKinley. During the past week there hus been ; much of a stir-up in popocratic circles. The Management of the campaign has been centered in the hands of Jonathan Bourne, ir., a republican member-elect of the legis- lature. lt is funny how some things come about, especially in politics. Not only is Bourne a republican member of the legislature, but when the campaign opened he was secre- tary of the repubiican state committee. He has always been a strong silver man, and after the bolt at the republican national convention by Teller et al. much solicitude was expressed as to Bourne's course by those who had placed him in such a prom- inent position. Soon it was rumored that he would desert his party, and for weeks the republican leaders wat‘ted for some word from him. He held off until after the democratic and populist conventions. Then his associates could stand.{t no longer, and demands for h:s resignation came from ail sides. It was on the eve of the campaign that Bourne. made kmown his _posit.on, w.thdrew from the state central. committee and cast his fortunes with Bryan. Ever since the campaign cpened he has directed the campaign work of the Oregon National Majority, te week have placed him at the head of the entire opposition, and henceforth -his fine Italian hand will direct the campa‘gn for Bryan. Today I had a lengthy talk with him about the result in Oregon, and asked for a statement for The Evening Star. This is what he gave me: = Bryan and the Populists. judging from present indications, Ore- gon, in my humble opinion, will give the Bryan and Watson electors, November 3, at least 5,000 plurality. A perfect and com- plete fusion between the populists,. the great majority of the democrats and a large number of the republican indepetideht | Bimetallic League, and the events of last | at ate bimefallists has been effected in this state. The Bryan and Watson electoral ticket consists of two populists, one democrat and one silver republican. This ticket will, in my humble opinion, receive the hearty and Joyal support of the entire populist party of this state, of 80 per cent of the demo- cratic party. and of 10 per cent of the re- publican party. Our state election in June unquestionably demonstrated that the great Majority of the voters in this state were in favor of independent bimetallism. “The principal products of Oregon are of the class uf which the United States pro- duces a surplus, and therefore the price is regulated by the international level of prices. The majority of the farmers of Oregon realize that McKinleyism simply means-that they will be forced to pay more for what they consume of finished products for the benefit of the eastern manufacturer, while they will receive no more for their own products They realize that the bullion value of silver (so long as the principal competitors of the United States remain on the silver standard) is a material factor in the cost of producticn of all products of the silver standard nations, and hence equally effects in competition the value of similar products of.the United States. Ev- ery cent’s rise in the bullion value of silver as messured in gold means a corresponding increase in the cost of production in ali silver standard countries as measured in gold; hence a corresponding increase in the gold price of our products, thereby increas- ing our profits or minimizing our losses. It is the realization of this fact rather than the question of an increase or decrease of our supply of redemption or primary money that will, in my judgment, bring to the support of the Bryan and Watson electoral ticket the great majority of the agricultu- ral votes in this state.” ——. HOOSIERS HOPEFUL. Desertions From the Bryan Cause Too Numerous to Count. Correspondence of The Evening Star. INDIANAPOLIS, October 24, 1893. The political skies are surely brightening for the republicans in Indiana. The deser- tions from Bryan are coming sc fast that the leaders cafi hardly keep a committee together long enough to give the members proper instructions. In this city they re- sign as fast as they are appointed. The leaders are actually demoralized and know uot where to turn. If there is anything at all in surface in- dications Mr. McKinley will have a very large plurality in the state. The way the tide is setting is well shown by the drift of the German vote. In the state there are 60,00) German votes. For several years past at least 75 per cent of the Germans have acted with the democratic party. Leading Germans who are !n a poeltion to know say that this year at least 75 per cent of the German democrats are oppos- ing Bryan. In other words, that out of the 45,000 German democrats in the staie nearly or quite 34,000 will not vote the Chicago ticket. The Germans are the most active and outspoken enemies of free silver in the state, and the leading Germans claim that fully 75 per cent of those who will not vote for Bryan will vote for McKinley. This would give to McKinley 25,000 German democratic votes in the state. There is but one German of state prominence who is advocating the election of Mr. Bryan, while all the others are opposing him, many of them using all their influence di- rectly for McKinley. It is said that there are but two whole- sale merchants in the state supporting Bryan, and not a single manufacturer whose output amounts to $10,000 a year. With the democrats all the prominent leaders, with the exception of half a dozen or so, are gpposing Bryan, and many of them have declared for McKinley. Every prominent railroad man is engaged in the same way. Among the lead.ng democrats who are stumping against Bryan, or tak- ing active part in anti-Bryan clubs, may be mentioned W. D. Bynum, ex-member of Congress; W. O. Pickens, Albert Lieber, John R. Wilson, John P. Frenzel, Evans Woollen, Austin H. Brown, all prominent as leaders in this county and in the state; Charles L. Jewett, ex-speaker of the house of represemtatives, and ex-chairman demo- cratic state committee; Rufus Magee, ex- state senator and minister to Sweden: John C. Nelson, democratic candidate for Heutenant governor in 1886; George Cooper, ex-member of Congress; C. A. O, McClellan, ex-member of Congress; Col. W. E McLean, ex-deputy commissioner of penstons; F. H. Burke, United States dis- trict attorney; Sterling Holt, ex-chairman of democratic state committee; S. P. Sheer- in, late secretary of national committee; Pierre Gray, son of the late Governor Gray; J. O. Henderson, ex-auditor of state; George W. Julian, ex-member of Congress; D. P. Baldwin, ex-attorney gen- eral; ex-Senator Sarnighausen; Crawford Fairbanks, member of demecratic executive committee; John C. Robinson, ex-judge of the circult court; Emory Sellers, United States attorney under Cleveland's first ad- ministration; W. O. Hawkins, ex-United States marshal; Llewellyn Wanner, candi- date for Congress in thirteenth district in 1894; Henry Kramer, ex-state senator; ex- State Senator Isadt Layton; ex-State Sen. ator Harry B. Smith; Mortimer Nye, lieu- tenant governor of the state, and T. J. Wood, ex-member of Congress. This does not by any means complete the list, for in every county may be found local leaders who have deserted the Bryan column and are actively opposing him. To offset this list, the democrats can point to but one solitary republican of state promi- nence who is opposing McKinley—Joseph B. Cheadle, candidate for Congress on the populist ticket in the ninth district. It ought not to be understood that there are no other free silver republicans in the state, for there are, but none of them: have ever been prominent tn the party. The Bryan leaders are still claiming that they will succeed in electing several members of Congress, and in this their claims may not be wholly without foundation, but yet, in face of the known facts, some of the claims they have sent out are ridiculously absurd. For instance, they claim they wiil be able to defeat Henry U. Johnson in the sixth. Early in the campaign both the democrats and the populists. nominated a candidate in that district, but a few weeks ago the democratic candidate was with- drawn and the one named by the populists put up. On the strength of that fusion all their hopes are based. This is the district that was so long rep- resented by George W. Julian, and after- ward by Gen. Tom Browne. It is largely settled by Quakers, and long before the war it was prenounced in its opposition to democrscy, and for fifty vears has never been represented by any other than a whig or a republican. It was changed somewhat by the last legislature, but at the election two years ago it cast 22,004 republican votes, 17,831 democratic and 1,207 populist. It will be seen that the republican vote was more than 8,000 great- er than the combined vote of the opposi- tion. In Wayne county, alone, the re- publicans believe they will make a gain this year of at least 1,000, and that they will not lose in all the other counties of the district anything like that number. No candid man who has been in the dis- trict’ can see any danggr of Mr. Johnson being deteated. Where Democrats May Gain. If the democrats gain any Corg-essmen at all it must be in the first, second, third, fourth or twelfth districts. Had the fusion been perfected in the first district, it might have elected a Bryan candidate, but there the populists are of the middle-of-the-road class and have rejected all. propositions of fusion. Evansville is in that district, and the sound money feeling among the democrats is very strong owing to the large German element, and it is believed that most of the sound money democrats will vote for the election of Mr. Hemmenway. It may be that the election in that dis- trict is doubtful, it certainly cannot be claimed as certain for free silver. The same state of affairs exists in the second district to a great extent. The populist candidate will not withdraw. If the com- bined free silver vote could be had for one mar Mr. Hardy would surely be de- feated, but as it cannot be combined he stands a chance of re-clection. Normaliy the district is strongiy democratic, and the sound -money feelirg is not so pro- nounced there as in other parts of the state. The chances are in favor of the dem.ccratic cardidate. ‘Archbishop Ireiand's Letter. In the third district there ia also a lack of fusion, but its normal democratic plu- ralty is so overwhelming that a race for a republican is almost hopeless, but the istrict is largely Catholic and the letters > of Archbishop Ireland and Bishop Chatard are havirg a very:ngtable effect, but the outlook is that the; idemocratic candidate will succeed with af very comfortable plu- rality. The fourthn is, another democratic district, but the republicans have a much better charce thanilneither the second or third, and the indications are that Mr. Holman will again bedefeated. While the democrats claim the twelfth district every- thing points to the; re-election of Mr. Leighty. The democratic loss in Allen county alone. will make his success cer- tain. As it stands now the democrats may have four of the delegation, but the paanoey are they will not have more than wo. NEW JERSEY’S VOTE. A Plurality .of Forty Tho McKinley Predicted. Cerrespondence of The Frening Star. CAPE MAY, N. J., October 25, 1896. The campaign in New Jersey is practical- ly fought to an end, although there will be oratory all this week by speakers of all three parties. But the result can hardly be changed. Senator Hawley of Connecticut and Senator Frye of Maine were in the state last week doing yeoman service for their party. Vice Presidential Candidate Hobart will make four speeches in the state, beginning tonight, and then remain at national headquarters in New York city during the remaining hours of the canvass. The democratic speakers for the week are State Senator Daly and a few men not any better known. The sound money democrats have as their principal orator Attorney General John P. Stockton, Allen McDer- mott having at the last moment tried to play both wings, to secure a nomination on which he hopes to slip into Congress from the seventh district. But it is too late, many think. The silver democrats still claim the state, but they have as yet to give the figures on which they base their claim. The republi- cans give out their figures, and the state league's filled-out blanks, received from every voting precinct in the state, show that the electoral ticket will get about 985 plurality. This can be regarded as a few thousand over the conservative mark, but it is conclusive evidence that McKinley will have at least 40,000 plurality, or about what the combined repub.ican plurality was on the congressional tickets of two years ago. The state will choose ten presidential electors, eight Congressmen, eight state senators (one over a third of the upper branch), a full house of assembly of sixty members and eighteen of the twenty-one sheriffs in the state. The republicans from their canvass claim the whole eight Con- gressmen by the following pluralities: First district, Henry C. Loudenslager, 12,000; second district, John J. Gardner, 10,000; third district, Benjamin F. Howell, 6,000; fourth district, Mahion Pitney, 1,300; fifth district, James F. Stewart, 7,000; sixth dis- trict, Richard Wayne Parker, 8,000; seventh district, Thomas McEwan, 2,300; eighth trict, Charles N. Fowler, 4, On the other hand the democrats claim they will defeat Pitnéy and McEwan, and possibly Fowler and Howell, but their only chance at all seems to be in downing Pit- ney, which {s not prabable. In the first district Congressman Louden- slager has thoroughly canvassed his dis- trict, in company with Charles H. Litch- man of Massachusetts, ex-secretary of the Knights of Labor, and the former man- ager of Ben Butler's campaign. In the second district Congressman Gard- ner has left his friends to take care of his canvass, while he has been stumping for McKinley and Hobart,in Indiana and IIli- noise. His cppongnt, who is running for both Congress and the state assembly, too, from Burlington county, has no show to secure either placé. In the fourth district, where young Mah- lon Pitney 4s having the fight’ of his Ife, the silverites are running former Congress- man Augustus W. Cutler, who is a man of considcrable wealth, popiilar and well known outside his district. The gold demo- crats have indorsed Pitney. Speaker Reed, Governor Griggs and others have helped Pitney by incursions into his district. ‘The fifth district includés Paterson, the home of Mr. Hobert and Governor Griggs. It gave Stewart two years ago within 28 votes of 6,00. This year It will give at least 7,000, and probably 8,000, for him, and even more for McKinley and Hobart. There ts another vice presidential candi- date living in Paterson, in the person of Matthew Maguire, the socialistic-labor can- didate, who 1s popular among the work- md for ingmen, and a member of the board of ; aldermen of that place. In the seventh district there has been a Breat deal of sparring as to who is the regular nationah democratic (Palmer) can- Gidate for Congress. County Clerk Fisher of Hudson decided in favor of Rynier J. Wortendyke, who is the genuine candi- date. Early in the campaign the silver democrats named Allen L. McDermott for Congress, but as he had fought the Chica- go platform and abstained from taking Part in Bryan’s nomination with other Jersey delegates because of the silver plank, he withdrew, after a full county ticket had been named by the silver men. These colleagues on the ticket were all of his old ring in Jersey City. But in the meantime the gold democrats named Ry- nier J. Wortendyke for} Congress and a full county ticket also. But before these gold nominations were filed McDermott ac- cepted a petition nomination for Congress as a national democrat, the county allver candidates being on the same ticket. Short- ly after the silver men named Alexander C. Young, a young man of twenty-seven, for Congress, and the straight gold men filed their ticket, and the county clerk Mid the Wortendyke ticket was the true national democratic ticket. McDermott and some of the old ring men then carried the case into the supreme court, claiming that they had the right by priority. They, however, are not after McDermott’s elec- tion, but want to bar out the gold county ticket, which will elect McEwan to Con- gress by an increased majority, and give the republicans five county offices, and eleven members of the legislature. ‘Clerk Fisher was upheld today, and MeDermott knocked out. ‘There are six electoral tickets filed with the secretary of state, as follows: Repub- lican, democrat (which contains two pop- ulist_ names), national democrat, national silver party (same as democrats), socialist- labor and prohibition. ‘The time for filing all nominations in the state expired Satur- da§ night. $ lew Jersey -has the secret ballot, but not the blanket sheet of the Australian system.

HE MAY RESIGN HIS SEAT Correspondence of The Evening Star. HARRISBURG, October 2, 1896. There was certified to every county in the state this week the official ballot that will be voted on November 8, and the lists may therefore be said to be made up and in- capable of change. There ‘3 a great deat of interest in the election for senators and members of the legislature, for on these gentlemen will devolve the duty of electing one, and probably two, United States Sena- tors.

Of these the terms of twenty-four republicans and one democrat expired, and there will be elections in the twenty-five odd number- ed districts this year. The one democratic district will return a democrat, but one of the republican districts, the forty-first, composed of Butler and Armstrong coun- ties, will send a democrat, for the reason that the two republican candidates broke up the conference while there was a dead- lock, and both propose to remain in the field, thus giving a democrat more than a chance of election. The next senate will, therefore, stand forty-three republicans and seven democrats, providing the free silver sentiment in some of the rural districts is not sufficiently strong to bowl over the re- publican candidates in the close districts. Of this, however, there is little fear. It is absolutely certain that Senator Quay will control the senate, as his friends in the hold-over senators, and in those who have been nominated, largely predominate. Quay Wants Hastings Chosen. In the house of 1895 there were 175 re- publicans and twenty-nine democrats, and it is not at all certain that there will be any material change at the next session. While the majority of those who will be elected are friendly to Quay it is not in evidence that they are infatuated with the gentlemen whom Quay has selected to go to the United States Senate, and the next session of the legislature of Pennsylvania may witness one of the biggest political rows that was ever seen in this state. The one man abové all others that Quay wants to see in the United States Senate is Gov. Hastings. When Quay elects Hastings to the United States Senate the governor will have to resign, and in his place will go Lieut. Gov. Walter Lyon of Pittsburg, the closest friend Quay has in Pennsylvania. ‘There is nc heartier advocate of Hast- ings for Senator than Mr. Lyon. Day in and day out he thinks of nothing but how he can serve his dear friend Hast- ings and aid him to get into the United States Senate, albeit he was a short year ago holding the governor up to scorn and ridicule as a member of the famous “hog combine.” Having disposed of Hastings and secured @ governor, Quay will next arrange for the election of Senator Penrose to the Senate. Semator Quay to Resign. But this is ancient history and only told for the purpose of leading up to the state- ment that to make Penrose a United States Senator the silent man from Beaver, Sen- ator Quay, will resign from the United States Senate before the 4th of March next and appoint Penrose, which appointment will be ratified by the Pennsylvania legis- lature, if Quay controls it and there is no revolt. Quay never held an office from which he did not resign. From private sec- retary to governor up to secretary of state, member of the house, colonel in the army, state treasurer, secretary of the state committee, he resigned from all of them. But he is canny. He is not going to step down and out for nothing—retire from poli- tics. Not a bit of it. When he leaves the United States Senate it will be to go into William McKinley’s cabinet as Secretary of the Navy. Those who know everything that amounts to anything say that this is an actual fact, and that in the event of McKinley's election Quay will be the ruler of Uncle Sam's na-vee. It is true that Maj. McKinley says that there are no promises out, and Mark Hanna holds up his hands in horror at the bare mention of promises, bul, «ll the same, Quay is not in politics for his health. He is in it strict- ly for business, and that journey to Can- ton before the campaign had gotten on ‘ts hind legs was for business pure and sim- ple, and then the position of Secretary of the Navy is what would just fit Quay. Mr. Wanamaker as a Quantity. There is one large able-bodied fly in the Quay oirtment, and that is the candidacy of ex-Postmaster General Wanamaker of Philadelphia for the United States sena- torship. Already he has some of the smoothest politicians in the state hustling for him, and it would not surprise any- body if the Philadelphia merchant has a good many votes for Senator, possibly enough to elect him if some of those sup- posed to be for Quay and cougted as Quay men should take a notion to jump sway from him. Stranger things than that have happened. Wanamaker’s canvass is in charge of FrankW.Leach,at one time Quay’e private secretary, and the man who was responsible more than any one other man for Quay’s remarkable political success. There are other men who are looking wist- fully at the United States Senatorial plum, notably Congressman Charles W. Stone of Warren, J. Hay Brown of Lancaster, whom Quay and Cameron wanted Herrison to appoint to the Supreme bench; ex-Licut. Gov. Watres of Scranton, who served a term as chairman of the state committee and paralyzed the politicians by submitting Eis accounts to be audited; Congressman Jack Robinson of Delaware, Peter A. B. Widener and William L. Elkins, Philadel. phia* multi-millionaires, and a few cther lesser lights. But if Quay controis the next legislature the United States Serators from Pennsylvania will be Daniel Hart- man Hastings and Boies Penrose. —__. AUCTION SALES OF REAL ESTATE, &c. ‘Tomorrow. 8.
