CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-THE Illinois Congressman are
oG for Washington. One of them, Finerty, goes
from Democratic district, unpledgcd for Speaker.
The Democratic State delegation will give Springer
the compliment of a solid vote on the first ballot;
but Mr. Springer, himself and his friends do not
look upon it as merely complimentary Their
theory is that there is going To be wrangie, that
Springer is "a real candidate and that he has an OPP
portunity. His organ, The State hegister, keeps mp
the fight, urging him not only upon personal
grounds but as a compliment TO the State. Springer
emphatically disputed The Louisville CoaiG-journdrs
statement that Morrison is supporting Carlisle,
and says he shall remain a candidate 50 long as ne
has one vote in the caucus.
Apropos of the Speakership contest. The Tribune
prints this morning the results of canvass of the
Democratic members of COngress-elect rs to their
preference and shOwss first choice for Speaker as
follows; Carlisle, 9S; Randall, So; Cox, 80
doubtful total 1914. II is now intimated that il
Springer finds the outlook hopeless and can control
his support in the Illinois delegation, he viii turn it
over to Cox.
Ex-Governor Hendricks in the city yesterday,
and in an interview says: Il should like TO see
Cox elected Speaker Randall is little extreme in
one direction aud Carlisle too much on the other.
The latter also halls from Kentucky, and should he
be elected it would give an increased impetus to

create Cox is satisfactory to everybody and un-
satisfactory to no one. He is able and honest, and
would grace the position. / should not I've surprised
