MIR. CoNKlING's OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES is hearing
a great deal just now among the politicians
about reconciliation" between the admints-
tration and Senator Conkilng. What there may
be In it as regards the President it is Impossible
to say; but that Mr.. Conkling is seeking 70
restore the entente cordaAe is fact beyond Gues-
ton: Many little circumstances Of more or les
significance have occurred since the recent cleo
ton pointing strongly in that direction. The
lmpeii1ng motive is transparent enough. Mr..
COnkling has set his affections on the republican
nomination for the next Presidency, and in
order TO secure the prize he has discovered that
he cannot afford to further antagonize any sec
ton OF the party; He is now in a frame of mind
to be friends with anybody and everybody. His
recent success in his state has convinced him
that its thirty-five electoral votes are his prop
erty, and In order to augment his political CAP
ital stock he is prepared to make almost any
concessions con. and almost any promises. The re-
longer be insisted upon, and Mr. Cornell viii be
left to shift for himself as the Senator has other
interests to care for. His friends here were
never more active than they are at this mo-
ment, and you will not have to wait long before
their manipulation Is visible on the surface
