ALBANY, May 2S-One effect of the
anti monopoly howl that the Stalwarts
have been making has been to arouse a
sentiment against monopolies, which is
certain to ruin the chances OF Chauncey
NJ. Depew, and it is doubtful whether
that gentleman will enter the race at all.
He is a pronounced friend and repre-
sentative OF the corporate interests,
and does not attempt TO conceal his
position. The Administration men who
were advocating his candidacy are there.

William A. Wheeler

tila to it's theory OF party government.

dict that the mantle will fall on Cornell
