Washington, May 10 Senator Voor-
hees voiced the sentiments of the dem
ocrats in an interview in the Euenino
Star to-day. He comes out boldly for
the confirmation of Robertson on the
ground that the democratic senator's
have nothing to do with the republican
quarrels; that their duty is to confirm
the nominations If the nomination is
capable and honest, and that nobody
denies these qualifications Of Robert
son. Stfl 'Conkling has some promi-
nent democratic friends inside and out
side Of the senate, who work for his
caucus. Ex-Senators Eaton and Nc
Donald, and Judge Parker have in let
ters and in person urged the democrats
to vote against Robertson, but this had
little effect. To days estimate, made
by coolheaded senator's on both sides.

TIE CHAMPIONSHIP.


The events of the past week have materially

eaying Chicago still in the lead, but bringing
Buffalo squarcy into second place. aud Only
,ne snlue behind Chicago. By strong, steady
wurk Cleveland has como abreast Of Worcester
.or third, and Detroit has steadily improved ITS
position until It has passed both Boston and
Providence, Troy being still in the rear. Up TO
his time the race is closer than ever before
known, and there was never time when 1t was
10 difficult tn name the best four clubs. Not only
loes the question as to the winner Of the pennant
or 1881 remain entirely prob]ematical with the
:hances, however, very strongly In favor OF
:hicago, but it -czi,d puzzle the profoundcst OF
baseball scientists to figure out what clubs are
;uing to be second, third, fourth, and so on. Not
:yeu the tail -ender can be named With anything
Ike certainty, for wc .ook to see Troy do some
arong pulltng-up from this time forward, and
sho shall say what other hearts must ache in the
meantime? Chicago found Troy in high feather
ast week, with tho Trojan pitchers in good trim,
md the whole outfit playing good bafl. Some
sody else Is sure to strike the SAINT sort of set
,ack In Troy,-no Doubt Of that. At the close of
.esterdny's Eamcs,- but two being played, owing
