But there is conflict of opinion as to whether the Spanish commissioners tomorrow will pre- sent a counter-proposition. This matter, it is added, was undecided at 2 o'clock this afternoon. i The Echo de Paris today-expresses sirong approval of the speech delivered at Wor- cester, Mz November 1 by Senator Hoar, in which he denounced the so-called pol- icy of American extension. The paper men- tioned quotes the speech fully and remarks that all American politicat men “apparent- ly do not agree with the policy of conquest.” Critical Point Reached. The Figaro says: “The peace negotiatio: have reached a very critical point. Up to yesterday the Spanish delegates had re- ceived no definite instructions from Madrid. Will the Spanish government accept the American proposition? We doubt it.’ The Petit Bleu remarks: “One must ad- mit in looking beneath the surface thai the late war has completely changed the American character. Outside of being fous merely for commerciat supremacy piaying a small political part, save regard- ing the South Amerfean® republics, the United States felt no desire to interfere in European politics.

POTTSVILLE, Pa., November 3.—There are three congressional districts in this im- mediate section of the state which th ocrats expect to carry next 1 which the republican manage are in doubt, the thirteenth, seventeenth and nineteenth. The two first named are repre- sented in Congress now by republicans and the latter by a democrat. Investigation of the conditions existing in those districts shows that the dem- d demo have foundation for their districts, and the republica: be alarmed, although they hav ceded deft in the thirteenth teenth, nor abandoned ail hope in the nine- teonth. The thirteenth district is composed of the county of Schuylkill, with a po: last election for Congress, Brumm, s 3 repub elected, receiving Vv 2 for Watson F. Shepherd, demo 239 votes for S. G.

The political history of the thirteenth district presents two conspicuous facts— that Mr. Brumm has been a perennial can- didate for Congress and that the majority vote has swung from one to the other in the elections of the past with con- siderable imparti The vote is fickle, and neither ime has been able to claim the district as its own for keens, as in the case of some of the other rock-ribbed republican or democratic di tricts of the state. Sometimes the repub- He have hold of it for two or three terms and then the democrats would get a turn at it. This year the democrats are demanding their innings, and the renublicans are somewhat lukewarm in their resistance to the claim.

Rowe had been out eleetioneering, and upon his return, it is alleged, while under the inftuence of liquor, went to Smith's house and attempted to kick the door in.

Anti-Quay Influence Feit. The conditions in the district involve mainly a straight fight between the demo- cats and republicans, but the anti-Quay guarrel is expected to have considerable influence upon the outcome. Northumberland county was carried by the prohibitionists one year ago, when Dr. Swallow, now candidate for governor, was up for state treasurer. There is no rea- son to expect diminution of that prohibi- tion vote this year, and if it goes to the prehibition candidate for Congress it will weaken the vote for Mr. Woodin, because the most of it will be drawn from the re- publicans. Hope for the republican can- didate, however, lies in the possibility of the anti-Quay republicans voting the pro- hibition state ticket and the republican con- gressional ticket. ‘The nineteenth district is regarded as likely to go democratic. It includes the ecunties of Adams, Cumberland and York, with a population of 180,246. It was car- ried by Mr. Jacob Benner, democrat, in 1896, by 22,160, against 21,382 for Frank E. Hollar, republican, 529 votes for W. H. All- bright, prohibitionist, and 498 votes for C. A. Hawkins, gold democrat. In this cam- paign the candidates are Robert J. Louis, republican, and Edward-J. Ziegler, demo- crat. The district will turn upon the vote in York county, and the only cause for un- easiness Yh thé part of the democrats is some friction in gYprk city and ceunty over local affairs, but this may be more than counterbalanced by the anti-Quay fac- tional troubles among the republicans. The conte® for representative in Congress is, therefore, close enough to be interesting, with the odds believed to be in favor of the ‘democrats. N. 0. M. ———————— Registration in Mlinois.
