RANDALL'S TACTICS.
--latest from the Front of the Speak
ship Fight.
The Pennsylvania Man Still Calm and
Confident Very Varying Views
--JOe Blackburn on Southern
Candidates--G Gossip.

CHICAGO, Nov. 29.-The Journals Wash
ington special says: The speakership fight
grows warm as the day for the Democratic
house caucus approaches. As the days pass
and the phases of the contest develop,
the cunning of Randall is every day
more apparent. He is gaining the
reputation of being second
Tilden for shrewdness. The reports from the
south, showing a stroAg change in the senti-
ments of the press in his favor, were no sur
prise to him. 1t turns out now that this sud-
den change in spirit was brought about by
truSty and accomplished agent of Nj. Ran
dali, who was quietly dispatched through
the south, while the other aSpirantS were
sitting i'll their coZy headquarters here,
shouting that they had the thing in their own
bands. 1t is whispered, too, that there are
other surprises in store for these same states
men. There is a marked difference in the
system of warfare adopted by them, and it
Will be very interesting to note the final result
of each. RandalrS policy is to make no
disclosures and no claims il detail. He
argues, and with apparent reason that if he
shows his hand before he plays it, he gives the
adversary the game, or at least gives him
every opportunity to win it. On the other
hand his opponents seem to think that the
more they parade the names of those
they claim, the more firmly they re-
tain their hold on them. Only a few
hours ago your correspondent visited
Mr.. Randalls room with a list thas Mr.
Carlisles friends had furnished for pub!ica-
ton, which list purported to give the number
that he would have from each state on
the first ballot. "We give no names and
no figures" was the polite but firm re-
sponse, except that we are conf
dent that Mr.. Randall has a ma ajority, al
ready. That list, he said, running over it
hastily, that list is all wrong, except, per-
haps, two states One state that they have
down there for Carlisle will go solid
for Randall" There are all sorts OF opinions.
One man said to your correspondent a
few hours ago that he would be willing to
wager something that the anti-Randal COM
bination would go to pieces in forty-eight
hours while another man has made bet
that Randall's name will not be mentioned in
the caucus. The oldest heads are still saying
that Randall will win

CINCINNATI, Nov. 29-Hon. Joe Black
burn, Of Kentucky, being in the city was
asked:
''Who seems to bs the strongest man for
the presidential candidate in 1SS4"'
Mcdonald, by all odds. Mind you, I
don't say ne is my individual preference, but
the entire circuit seems to be setting in his
direction"
whats the matter with Tilden, SAM
uel J.9'
'Not to be considered at all The chance
to rectify his great wrong was lost right here
in Cincinnati at the last Democratic presi-
dental convention. The statute Of inlita-
ton would operate against him."
"Ohio has some timber left.n
''Ohio has had her share"
"When will they put up a southern man?"
Never"
"WhyT
because there are persons who attach a
taint to any man who ever wore the gray"
" Then why not take one who did not wear
the uniform, but was prominent in other re-
spects!"
{" He would not be accepted by the south
as representative man. No stay-at- home ;
would have their support. Yes sir, the Con
federate uniform has worked injury to many
a man since the war closed. Take my own
case in the contest with Randall 1t was one
of the closest votes on record, and my uni
form beat me. Good night

Not SO bad as 1T Looks,

New YORK. Nov. 29,-"Gath' says: Much
is said about the destruction of American
commerce: but 1 can recall the time when
there was hardly an iron ship in this country
built by our own mechanics. At present we
have an enormous iron tonnage wholly built
here, because no foreign-built vessels are
allowed to compete between our own ports.
Our iron shipping has been created abso-
lutely since the war, under the tariff sys-
tenn, and it is one of the largest navies in the
world We used in ship-building by the last
census, about 156, 100000 pounds of iron. We
used nearly 'O0,000,0OO pounds for new YES
sells alone during the year, and the rest was
used for the repairing of vessels. The state
of Delaware, for instance, used 13,0O0 900
pounds of iron, Pennsylvania nearly 45, ,00O,-
GOO pounds, and even in the lake commerce
there were nearly 2O,O0O,OO0 pounds of iron
emplOyed

Randali's Popularity.

CINCINNATI, Nov. %. The Enquirer's New
York special says: I heard Milton Sayler
and Henry Watterson have few words to
gether at the st. James hotel. Sayltr said
that Randall would be elected speaker; that
any body could bet money on it.; that he was
the best politician in congress, and that
Carlisle would find when he came to the
critical point that he was all mashed up
Watterson looked distressed about it, said
he could not see how it was going to happen,
and yet obsel we'd by his flush and trouble
that he thought it probably true.
Hereabout almost every body likes Ran
dali The campaign against him for speaker
