Probability That Congressional Dele- gation Will Be About Equally Dit- vided—Each Side Makes Claims. Special Correspordence of The Evening Star. INDIANAPOLIS, October 19, 1898. The report from Washington that the next Congress would not contain so large a republican majority as the present one, is having a good effect for the republicans of this state, as it {s stirring them up to the belief that they have work to do, if they do not desire to see a democratic gain in the delegation from this state. In 1894, for the first time in the history of the state, the re- publicans carried every district. Two years later the democrats recovered four of the districts they had lost. Since then there has been a recasting of the geographical lines of some of the districts, but not so as to deprive the democrats of ‘any of the four districts they carried two years ago. It looks now as if the next delegation would stand six democrats and seven republican: and that it is possible for the democrats to have the seven and leave the republicans with but six. Opposition to Cromer. The opposition to Cromer in the eighth district still increases, and leading repub- licans in every county in the district are openly opposing him. In his own county every preacher is against him, and neariy every lawyer. The preachers openly preach against him, and the lawyers, doctors and other busin men have combined against him. It is confidently claimed that in his own county fully 1,000 republicans will not vote for him. Many of them ill vote against him. Two years ago the present incumbent was elected by a plurality of about 2.300. He may pull through, but it will be a close call. Many charges are brought against him, one of them being a lack of fealty to the party in past times, especially in municipal elections. a In the fifth district the tide is still against Faris, but not so strong as a week or two ago. He now feels certain of his election, but the indications are that he is not en- tirely out of the woods yet. His opposition to civil service reform is helping him, for in Indiana the present civil service law is not popular with any party. If the ques- tion of the repeal of the la’ ‘as left to the voters of Indiana the vote for the imme- diate and unconditional repeal would carry by at least ten to one. Mr. Faris is known to be an active and determined opponent of the law, and this is giving some strength with those who ure opposed to him on other grounds. In the first district matters are brighten- ing up somewhat for the republicans, and the best opinion is that Hemmenway will be re-elected. The democrats claim they will defeat Hemmenway, Faris, Cromer and Overstreet, with a fighting chance in the thirteenth district. They no longer claim the defeat of Landis. The republi- cans, on the other hand, are just as loud in their claims that they will elect nine of the thirteen members, and that they have a fighting chance for two more. This last claim is not well founded. Unsafe to Bet on Indiana, It is never safe to bet on an Indiana election and hardly ever safe to make even a guess. Committees out here are built on the plan of claiming everything. ‘That is their strong hold. The man who can claim the most and make that claim the loudest is always regarded as the best politician—until after the election. The republicans now feel so certain of controlling the next legislature that the senatorial question is awakening a strong- er interest than heretofore. Neither of the avowed candidates have developed any de- cided strength as yet. Each has his friends, but so far as can be judged the majority of the candidates for the legislature are without preferences as to senator. This is evidenced by the number of names being canvassed who are not avowed candidates. Talk of Perry S. Heath, Within the past week there has been a remarkable revival of the talk of Perry S. Heath. He is personally popular, and it is recognized that if he were in the Senate the Indiana applicant for office would have a stanch friend, who would urge his claims n charged that Senator Fair- banks favorable to the election of Judge Taylor, but the senator has taken no part in the fight in any w nor has he even expr d a preference to hi st ii timate friends. If Mr. Heath was a candi- date, however, it is believed he would have the support of Mr. Fairbanks. They are very warm friends, and the senator be- lieves in the political sagacity of the first assistant postmaster general. AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN. Runaway Accident — Death of Louis Baker—Other Items, A runaway accident occurred yesterday afterncon on the Canal road, which result- ed in the serious injury of the driver of a team, Williem Fick, and the demolition of his coupe, while two lady occupants of the vehicle escaped without injury, though badly frightened. The coupe belonged to Fatrick O'Donnell of 1520 L street, and Fick was driving, as passengers, Mrs. Kate Lloyd and Miss Alice Drake. The horse at- tached to the coupe was frightened at some object on the road, became unmanageable and ran, and his mad flight did not end un- til the coupe coliided with a telegraph pole. The driver was thrown off his seat anc two ladies were thrown out of the v Mr. John Shugrue, who happened to be near by in a buggy, conveyed the driver to the Georgetown University Hespital, where an examination showed that several bones had been broken, besides an injury to the skull, though his condition was, not re- garded as extremely dangerous. The pa: sengers were able to get home without as- sistance. Louis Baker, the twelve-year-old son of William and Virginia Baker, died yester- day afternoon at 1:45 o'clock of typhoid fe- ver. The deceased was a bright youth and very popular among his comrades. He was in the fifth grade, and attended the Fill- more School. He was stricken with typhoid fever eighteen days ago, and gradually sank into unconsciousness, from which he did not revive. The funeral will take place from the residence of his parents, 2066 street, tomorrow at 9 o'clock. John Weaver of £053 M street, who was found yesterday afternoon lying uncon- scious on a pile of leaves near the naval observatory, as stated in The Star yester- day, is now out of danger. The man was taken to Georgetown University Hospital, where he informed the physicians, upon regaining consciousness, that he took the Gose of laudanum to relieve pain caused by dysentery, and not from any suicidal in- tent. His statement was ascertained to be true. He is now occupying a ward in the hespital. S Prof. B. T. Janney, supervising principal of the public schools of Georgetown, hav- ing rented his kome at 1611 31st street to Col.

Notwithstanding the opposition offered by the town commissioners to the exten- sion of the Baltimore and Ohio tracks to their station at this point, a large force of ‘men began work laying rails yesterday morning, and by 4 o'clock had finished, before an injunction could be obtained. The work was hurriedly pushed through, under the immediate direction of B. F. Fendall, division engineer, A petition to the com- missioners against the laying of the tracks is in circulation, but the work being fin- ished the paper will have but litue or no effect. It is said the principal objection upon the part of citizens to the extension was the fear that the company would use the track for a siding, and in. consequence would be a menace to the safety of the public. The purpose of the track, The Star reporter was informed, was for the use and accommodation of passengers on the Chesapeake Beach road. This road will make connection with the Baltimore and Ohio, and the tracks will be used only for passenger service at this point. lt is understood the commissioners, ow- ing to the increased danger at the crossing, will ask for an additional man at night, and also a suitable walk across the tracks at that point. A republican rally, under the auspices of the Riverdale Republican Club, will be held tonight at the Masonic Hall. Senator Well- ington and Representative Sydney E. Mudd, candidate for re-election in the fifth con- gressional district, and others are expected to address the meeting. Prof. E. H. Brinkley, assistant agricul- turist at the Maryland experiment station, has been removed because of an alleged uncomplimentary remark made by Brink- ley about Governor Lowndes, who is ex officio president of the board of trustees. It is stated that the conversation in which the alleged remark was made took place at an informal gathering of some of the professors and that one of them conveyed the information to the governor. Brinkley states that the remark was jokingly made and that no manner of disrespect for the governor was intended. > CONTRACTOR MISSING, Snap Jadg- Mr. Charles H. Ruth Absents Himself From the City.

In their efforts to meet German compete tion the fabric manufacturers of Roubalx, France, have developed the new weaving machine, which In speed surpasses the new Northrop machine of American invention and permits the use of ordinary material. The fabric produced is turned out at the as- tonishingly rapid rate of from 10) to 1 yards per day of ten hours. There is great economy, one workman overseeing six ma- chines, and the motive force is one-half of the ordinary requirement. The fabric shows a woven effect on one side and knitted on the other, and it is believed that the ma- chine will be a powerful factor in compet- ing for the plain goods market, if not for high novelties.
