IBr TELEGRAPH TO THE TRrBUNE.i
| WAsHISGToN, Oct. 13.-In an interview to-day
Mr. Eugene Hale, chairman of the Republican Con-
ggasslopal Committee sketched the results OF the
elections and the general political outlook as 1t ap-
pesrs from the point of view of his committee to-
gstber with the plans for the future. hr. Haze III
substance said:
1.-THE fact that the party was able IN ONO 10
carry the State by majority Of 10000, when last
wear the Democratic majority was nearly 2o'OOo'
shows that on fair presentation Of financial issues
the people agree with the Republicans Ii the
strongest Democratic candidate for the Presidency
with all the apparent advantage Of sOftmOney
theories this year could make no better tight IN ms
II own State than Senator Thurman did, 1t Is plaln
what the final issue must be- The Congressional Com
mittee is now engaged In securing the services OF al
the speakers of National reputationin Ohio, Indiana
| and Iowa to speak in the November States. The
committee is now IN communication with Ehhu b.
Washburne, General Benjamin Harrison, of In
diana, General Garfield, Charles Foster, William
w. West, of Ohio, Stanley Matthews, j. u. Cox
Major Butterworth, Congressman Dantorth, helter
and Mckinley, Thomas Brown, j, L. Wilson, and
Senator KirkwOod.
1.-The committee expects gains in New-YOrk, Con-
lnecticut, New-Jersey, Pennsylvania Maryland Yir-
gina and North Carolina, and that the Republicans
will hold their own in the other November States.
The tendency of the campaign in these States is IN
the direction of an uncOmpromisng position upon
the money question. The fate of those who faltered
| upon that question, together with the success Ill
Ohio, where the battle was made for sound cur
reney has removed nearly all the doubts which any
lRcpublican may haVebad as to the position which
the party shall take. The popular strength of the
sound money theory in Ohio shows that the back
bono of the Greenback movement has been broken,
land the evidence of panic in certain Democratic
louarters shows that their leaders begin to realize
That III permitting the 10 dSbuInb
advocacy Of sound currency they have made as
great mistake as they did in assuming the disoyal
side in the war:
There is another encouraging feature" Mr.. Hale
sad, in the States where the Republican party has
lbeen for time defeated. The Republicans, instead
of repining, are found ready and eager for new
contest. Notably is this so in Maine. While the
disaster IN September surprised most of the leaders
OF the party there is not found any discourage
ment or any disposition to abandon the fight for
honest money. The Republicans IN Maine are
lfeady to renew the fight, and believe that in the
contest next year for Governor and the Legislature
they will carry the State by their old sweeping Re-
lpublican majority"
Letters received by Nh. Hale from Maine indicate
the fact above stated, and that the fight will be
Inade there, as elsewhere, upon the financial and
Icurrency issues In Indiana the effect of the defeat
has evidently been TO put the Republicans for the
Ifnture square upon the financial question. The Rep
Iresentaiyes who defeated were generally those
Iwhofatered and who attempted tOprOpitate instead
offghting the Greenbackers. All the correspondence
lof the committee indicates that the Republicans
who are elected to the XLYIth Congress VIII be
almost unit in favor of maintaining the law for
the resumption of specie payments aud of acting
against every form of Greenback heresy.
"The omens Of success in the contest of 1892
THAN today The committee VIII continue the dis
ltribution of documents and speeches. mainly On the
sound money question, until November. The
speech Of Mr.. GOrham, secretary of the committee,
about which 30 much has been said, has never been
lprnted by the committee but small issue was
lprnted at the expense of Mr. GOrham himself, and
t has been sent only to persons who have asked for
lit All the speakers which the committee is now
leugaging are sound on the money question. Ap-
lpontments have been made for General Garfield in
lPennsylvana, Illinois, Michigan, New-Jerscy and
IMaryland. 1t is the intention of the committee to
send one OF two good speakers into the lid District
of Vermont which was nearly carried by Green
backer in September"
! Mr. Hale if he recOvers from the lameness caused
by fall, which has injured his knee will speak, in
answer to requests, in Pennsylvania, Eew-York,
Connecticut and New-Jersey
| An earnest effort will be made to carry certain
districts in South Carolina. where it is clear that

Mr.. Hale said: after conference with the commit
