QUITE A NUMBER OF ASPIRANTS All Seem to Think They Will Have Senator Wellington's Support. THE FEDERAL OFFICES Correspondence of The Evening Star. BALTIMORE, January 2, 1897. Although the election of the next genera! assembly is ten months distant, members of both parties are looking forward to it with almost as much interest as would be dis- played were it to occur within the next three months, and the outcome of that elec- ticn, which will decide whether Senator Gorman is to succeed himself or to retire to private life, is a subject of general dis- cussion. The republicans are confident of winning, and a number of candidates from that party are already in the field. Senator Gorman and his friends are de- termined not to allow the independents, who turned the state over to the republi- cans, to control the democratic legislative neminations, and the latter are prepared to vete the republican ticket again rather than aid Mr. Gorman in his fight to succeed him- self. Republican Aspirants. The most conspicuous aspirants among the republicans are Messrs. William W. Mc- Intire and Sydney E. Mudd, the congress- man-elect from the fourth and fifth dis- tricts, respectively. Mr. McIntire is one of the most popular members of his party in the elty and state. He has many strong personal friends among the democrats, many of whom voted for him at the last election on purely personal grounds, al- though they voted for Bryan as well. He is a capable business man. and an intimate friend of Senator-elect Wellington and oth- er leading members of the party. Mr. Mudd’s Chances. Congressman-elect Mudd will not be sup- pressed without difficulty. He is a shrewd, adrolt politician, who has had his eye on Mr. Gorman’s seat ior over a year. He declares that Mr. Weliington will be found among his supporters and that the back- ing which he expects to receive trem the senator-elect will be in fulfillment of a pledge made him in Mr. Wellington's mem- orable campaign at Annapolis last winter 19 succeed Senator Gibson. One factor ts likely to operate strongly against Mr. Mndd, and that is that his career as a practical politician noi likely to com- mend him to the formidable independent element that has latterly come to the front in Maryland elections. The more conservative faction of the re- publican party will be loath to antagonize the independents. and they will co all in their power to insure the nomination of representative members of their party 10 the state senate and house of Celegaies. Gov. Lowndes Ambition. Governor Lowndes is another prorninent republican who is anxious to xo to the Senate. He is not an avowed candidate at present, although 1t is believed thai it will require but little to bring him out. The governor's candidacy is not taken seriously by the majority of Maryland re- publicans, and the fact that he and Sene- vor-elect Wellington come from the same county would be likely to prevent his at- taining his end. were there no other cb- stacles in his path. Furthermore, his career as governor has been vigorously condemned by many members of his party, and his distribution of the state patronage has cre- ated a great deal of dissatisfaction, not only among the reformers, who voted for him, but among the republican. regulars, which will take a long time to beal. It ts thought that he is also depending upon the support of Mr. Wellington, but the latter, when questioned by personal friends, has declared that he has no intention of sup- porting the governor's candidacy. Mayor Hooper and the Council. While there would appear to be a sus- pension of hostilities at present between Mayor Hooper and the city council, an out- break is expected as soon as the coun meets. The mayor has a number of ap- pointments to make. and a decisive battle is looked for when he sends his green bag down. The bulk of the appointments al- ready made has been given to the mayor's personal friends, rather than to his party, and Mr. Hooper is accused of trying to build up an independent faction to insure a renomination. There is Mttle prospect of his gaining a second reguiar nomination, but it is thought that he will head an in- dependent ticket, and latterly there has been considerable conjecture as to whether or not the democrats will be Nkely to in- dorse his nomination, should it be made in such a manner. It is understood that such a movement will be backed by the Baltimore Sun and the News, and the advocacy of the scheme by ex-Congressman Barnes Compton, now naval officer, is regarded ae indicating that Senator Gorman approves of it. Federal Appointments. Although no federal appointments will be given out until some time after the inau- guration of the McKinley administration, the horde of applicants for places is daily inereasing in size and voracity. Mr. Wel- Imgton has announced his determination to secure the appointment of State Senator James M. Sloan of Allegany county as col- lector of the port, despite the fact that a large number of aspirants for this place are in the field. The latest candidate is Mr. William T. Malster, whose friends in- tend to make a personal appeal in his be- half to President McKinley. Mr. Malster's admirers declare that his consistent atti- tude as a McKinley man deserves such recognition, and they are prepared to em- phasize Mr. Wellington's association with the Reed boom, when they make their ap- peal to Major McKinley. While no formal agreement has been reached as to the spe- cific distribution of offices, it is understood that the federal patronage will be divided among the six congressional districts as follow: Surveyor to the first district, two praisers to the second, United States mar- shal to the third, subtreasury to the fourth, collectorship of internal revenue to the fifth, and the naval office, and the collec- torship of the port to the sixth—in the last place it is understood that whoever Sena- tor-elect Wellington may support will be indorsed. It is believed that Dr. Washing- ton G, Tuck, the republican leader of Anne Arundel county.has been slated for the col- lectorship of the internal revenue. There are several other candidates for this pori- tion, and a great deal of opposition has been manifested to Dr. Tuck's candidacy. It is expected, however, that he will be ap- pointed, as it is understood that this place will go to Congressman-elect Mudd’s dis- trict, and he is said to favor him, ——.W.—— Robbery of a St. Louis Department Store. A conspiracy, having for its object the systematic robbery of one of the large de- partment stores in St. Louis by employes of the firm, has been exposed through the ar- rest and confession of six of the employes. The store is that of the William Barr Com- pany, and the loss will amount to thoue- ands of dollare. The conspiracy, it is eaid, will include a number of other employes besides those at present under arrest, to- gether with a number of persons not con- nected with the store. The men arrested are Cassius English, P. J. Lee, William Haupt, William Jacks, Wiliam McFarland and Luther Shobe. ——_+e+_____ An Impending Calamity. From the Detroit Free Press.

McCULLAGH Interesting Stories Told of His Oareerin Thie City. How He Happened to “Leave je Ane sociated Press — His Experi- ence as a Tenderfoot, The late John B. McCullagh, editor-in- chief of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, was for many years a reporter for the Associat- ed Press in this city, and aiso at the same time a correspondent over the signature of “Mack” of the Cincinnati Commercial. Many stories are told of his peculiar‘ties while he resided in this city. Jesse Sarvis was the only telegraph operator for the press work of the Senate when McCullagh was reporting there: “When McCullagh was reporting on the floor of the Senate,” says Mr. Sarvis, “ of the senators from California made him- self disagreeable. McCullagh simply stopped reporting what that senator said on the floor. He never said anything against the senator, but preserved strict slence con- cerning Lim. This so irritated the senator that he made a speech one day devoted entirely to a personal attack on McCul- lagh, who had to sit there and listen with- out tme right to reply. McCullagh said, when he came up in the gallery, that he Was going to California to defeat that sena- re-election.” Why He Was Removed. Mr. McCullagh was succeeded as reporter of the Senate for the Associated Press by Mr. Hy. Conquest Clarke, now of the United Press. “The reason for Mr. MeCullagh’, separation from the Associated Press,” said Mr. Clar “is not generally known. His was the first example of a newspaper man being started on a new and successful career by the disfavor of the Senate. The incident was recalled io me when Jim Young was elected to the House: after hc was turned out of his pcsition in the Sen- ate. “McCullagh’s dismissal from the Associ- ated Press was demanded by the senators. He was the Associated Press reporter on the floor of the Senate and at the same time corresponded over the signature of “Mack.” He was a perfectly fearless though just and accurate. In the letters some of the senators were criticised very sharpiy. They could noi complain that any untruth was told abou: them or that any injustice was done, but that did not lessen their anger. The fact that what ‘Mack’ said was true made it hurt worse, and it was offensive to them to see McCullagh occupying the privileges of the floor. Finally they waited on the Manager of the Associated Press and de- manded Mecullegh’s dismissal. They threatened to take from the association the privilege of having a reporter on the floor of the Senate if McCullagh was retained. Eventually, with great reluctance, the man— ager of the Asscciated Prese had to yi This was the besi of good fortune fo: Cullagh.” One of Hix Own Stories. Colonel McCullagh in the course of his career had many laughable experiences and did “not hesitate to tell a good story, even though the point was on himself. Sitting in the old “Beanery the old-time gathering place for men of the note book and pencil, in the fail of “#1, he told the following story to a little knot of newspa- ber men, one of whom happened to be the writer: “Some years ago,” said Mr. McCullagh. “I went west to make my fortune. I was young and foolish, and in Butte, Mont., I went ‘broke.’ I did not know a soul, was hungry, and how badly I wanted a drink of z00d, old Missouri rye you can imagine. 1 walked up and down, past saloons and dug- outs, and finally hit upon a scheme, which I proceeded to put into operation. I walked into a saloon, noticed a big cowboy leaning up against the long bar, with a brace of revolvers, large as young cannons, hang- ing over his hips. Approaching the bar- tender, I said: ‘I understand they make a man drink in this wild and woolly west whether he wants to or not?: ““Yes,’ said he, ‘sometimes.’ “I decried it as an outrage and a shame, gave a short temperance lecture and des- canted upon the rights of American citizen- ship, and wound up by vowing that, even though I were a tenderfoot, no living man could make me drink against my will. Just here I noticed the big cowboy finger- ing his gun nervously, and before I knew it I was ‘covered.” “Jim,” said he to the bartender, ‘put six drinks of whisky on the bar.” To me he said: ‘Young fellar, you drink them six @rinks or, by G-d, there will be a new ten- derfooi in hell tonight.” “I spluttered around, made a feeble pro- test or two, but my cowboy cocked his gun. I slowly drank my way to the end of the row of glasses, stopped and smiled. The cowboy laughed and began a harangue about a tenderfoot’s cowardice and bragga- docio, and when he had concluded, I said to him: “Say, mister. if you will fill "em up again I will drink my way back to where I started from.’ ” ——— ON THEIR WAY TO CUBA. Departure of the Commodore—Fili- busters Rescued by the Dauntless. The stcamer Commodore, which cleared from Jacksonville, Fla., Thursday night bound for Cuba, with arms and ammuni- tion, grounded in the St. John’s river at Commodore's Point, a few miles below the city, and remained there all night. The revenue cutter Boutwell started down the river yesterday morning, and, seeing the predicament of the Commodore, threw it a line and pulled it off, afterward towing the boat down the river until steam could be gotten up. The Commodore crossed the bar about 2 o'clock and headed for Cuba. The gunner from the Boutwell has been withdrawn from the Three Friends by Capt. Kilgore, acting under instructions from Washington. District Attorney Clark has received no instructions to libel the steamer, and it is now free from the cus- tody of the government. The question whether the Three Friends fired upon a Spanish cruiser will, however, be brought before the grand jury of the United States court, now in session at Jacksonville, and a thorough investigation will be made. At present the government has nothing upon which to base a charge against the boat. Rescuing the Filibusters. The filibusters who left Fernandina on the steamer Three Friends, about three weeks ago, bound for Cuba, and who, after the failure of the expedition, were landed on No Name Key, have been in distress, and at least two of them died because of the privations that they were compelled to endure. No Name Key is situated about sixty miles northeast of Key West. The steamer Dauntless, which left Jack- sonville Tuesday afternoon, reached the key where the men and cargo were left that night and succeeded in taking them aboard, and they are supposed to be now on the way to Cuba again. A dispatch from Key West received last night at Jacksonville gave the following informa- tien: “The Dauntless arrived at No Name Key last night and the transportation of the arms and men from the island to the steamer was, begun immediately. Four Key West schooners assisted in the trans- ter of the men and arms from the key to the steamer. While the work was in pro- gress two steamers were seen to pas: giving the fillbusters a fright and neces- sitating the suspension of operations for the time being. A scare was also caused by several newspaper men visiting the camp in a tug from Key West. So soon as the signal was given that the visitors however, all fears were al- Jayed and the work was continued again. ‘Three newspaper men are aboard Dauntless and will go with the expedition. The Cubans here received direct informa- this afternoon and reported that every- thing had been loaded safely and that the expedition was well out to sea.”- ——_+e2+—___ Paul Ritter, the Painter, Dead.

Pa omn- and than ever. It is a fight to the death, and this is admitted by such republicans as Hiram L. Grant of the state committee and by such populisis as O:ho Wilson of the state committee. Last summer the populists offered to pledge themselves to support Pritchard if the republicans would take down Russell and put up Guthrie as the nominee for gov- ernor. This comes direct from a sta committeeman who was present when the offer was made. It is asserted by the re- Publicans that a binding pledge was made in January, 1895, by the populists, througi: Senator Butler, that they would support ard for re-eleciion. Butter ies this, and says he merciy made a personal statement that he hoped the fusion or cc operation relations would continue in 1X07 as they then existed. He says the state- ments must be stopped; that they are twaddle, and will not be permitted. | Was There a Pledget This latter declaration, over the senior senator's signature. moved Republican State Cemmitteeman Grant, who is Pritchard's most devoted friend, to declare ‘hat on the Sunday before the senatorial caucus in Jonuary, 1895, it was decided by the re- publicans that Pritchard must be given the long term; that Butler then went to him (Grant) and made voluntarily a 4 lede to support Pritchard for re-election says ne will swear to these facts. irant Buti has uot yet had an opporinuity to repiy to this ement of Grant. His news- paper, the Caucasian, published here, does not appear this week. But next will no doubt “shell the woods.” Populist State Committeeman Otho Wi son, who is, by the way, an earnest as- pirant for Pritchard's place, says the lat- ter must take the free sliver pledge in order to be re-elected; that without such a pledge his re-election is an impossibility. This brings up the question of the pledge. Will Pritchard take it? Judge Ewart, who speaks as Pritchard's close friend,’ say that the latter will, when the legislature assembles, announce that he will vote for a bill providing for the free and unlimited coinage of silver. irrespective of other countries, but that this must be an inde- pendent bill, for this particular purpos not a “rider” on any other bill. Ki. Gudger, one of the republican nomine for elector-at-large, makes the same state- ment. But State Commiite-man Grant Says, Pritchard will only vote for a. bill asking joint action by other nations on the silver question. Otho Wilson evidently thinks Pritchard will take the pledge. for he refers to the fact that Senator Thurs- ton speaks for Pritchard and says the tariff question is paramount and that of silver inferior. Wilson says Pritchard is in straits. week he The Legit re. ‘The legislature meets next Monday.

The latter will be here next wiek, and will begin his campaign. His brother-in- law, Mr. Hyams, the secretary of the 1 publican state committee, will have charge of his headquarters. Populisis who will talk say that if Pritchard has plenty of populist votes pledged to him, it is singular that he is now taking so much trouble to look after his fences. Republicans But- ler is now so desperate that h will use anybody to defeat Pritchard: that if he ca: do so he will induce Julian 8. Carr, demo- crat, to be a candidate. Grant says t- ler wants to be the Matt Ransom of North Carolina polities.” The whole matter resolves itself into the qtcstion whether Senator Butler controis all the populists. There are some republl- cans who secretly are Inimical to Pritchard. The latter knows these, and also knows that if things begin to go against him they are ready to join in the clamor. Republicans declare the populists are too grasping. Indeed, the latter have already secured far more than their share of the offices, according to the general view. They are also to have the speakership of the house. t is said positively by republicans that every democratic officehoider under the state administration is to be removed, and that speedily. There is a rush for post- tions on the part of both republicans and populists. The New Governor. The governor-elect, Daniel L. Russell, ts fifty-one years of age, and his home ts at Wlimington. He is a lawyer and a rice planter. He has served in the legislature, as superior court judge and one term in Congress, at which time he was a green- backer. He is for free silver. He is a de- voted friend of Senator Pritchard. Governor Russell's inauguration will be almost primitive in its quietness. He has refused all offere of escorts, receptions, €te. nd will deliver no inaugural address, but will simply be sworn in by the chief justice, and will then send in a message to the legislature. The democrats are very quiet. Whipped at every point, there is nothing for them to do but await’ developments. No one can tell what these may be.
