Ex-Congressman Hopkins, OF Pittsburg, and
Controller PattiSOn, OF Philadelphia, are the most
prominent candidates for the democratic nomi-
nation for governor OF Pennsylvania before the
convention which meets at Harrisburg to-day.
State Senator Coke has finally, it appears, con-
senIed to the use Of his name, and these three
make up the list OF openly ayowed candidates
There are numerous dark horses in the field. Ex-
Speaker Randall seems to have enectually
Squelehed the boom that was being worked for
him, he preferrng, it IS stated, to be returned
TO Congress The prospect of democratic success
renders the nominations OF the convention desir-
able and the probability IS that the contest, es-
peeially for the first place the ticket, will be
spirited one. Some OF the party leaders think the
convention VIII not complete its laborS before to-
morrow evening, as 1t is thought to be a time
when the democracy should proceed very cau-
dousy and deliberately, in order to take the full
est advantage possible OF the opportunity now
presented 10 them.

The Charge is openly made and believed In
many mercantile quarters in New York that the
managers OF the great railway trunk lines have
no desire and no intention OF settling the ques-
tons between the freight-handlers and them
selves on any basis until after the 1st OF July,
when the advanced tariff of freight will 90 into
eject, and the immense quantities OF goods now
piled up in New York awaiting shipment can go
forward ar the increased rates. One can scarcely
believe that anyone would so trif1e not only with
the rights Of the labOring man but with the COM
mercial interests OF the whole country, for the
sake OF the enhanced profits thus secured; but
greed OF capital underlles the whole difficulty and
the tactics attributed to corporate monopoIies in
this case are no more unlikely or dtsreput able
Than others 10 which they have been III the habit
OF reSorting, in order to fleece the public

AT every session OF Congress for some years past

% originate the appropriation bills carries with it
the right TO fix the salaries OF government en-

regards this interference with its domestic affairs
