of the action of his colleagues this evening differs
quite materially from that given by some OF I%ho %

that the New-YOrk men who desire to vote 1or M.

Speaker are extremely dissatisfied both with the
attitude of Mr.. Cox and with the result OF the con-

before the caucus be held Mr.. Cox will cease to be
Al a late hour tonight it is understood that the
Carlisle men who are bound by the resolution
adopted tonight to support Mr. Cox we're IN con-
sultatOn with Colonel Morrison, Mr. Carnsie 5
lieutenant trying to map ont course BY whlcn
they may escape from the dilemma into which tnelr
friendly regard for Mr.. Cox and his opportunities
have forced them
At 10 o'clock Mr.. Carlisle and his friends were
still jubilant. Mr.. Willis, of Kentucky, who has
conducted themathcmatical branch of Mr. Carllsles
canvass with great ability and skill, said: we 1eei
no interest in the NewYOrk conference for 1t Will
make no difference. Ninety-fve votes will be SUI;
fcient TO nominate the successful candidate, ana
there are in Washington tonight from ninety-sx to
ninety mine votes for Carlisle. This victory Is won
already"
Ali the Carlisle men who could be seen
spoke in like terms, and they are lmpatently WalU
ing for the vote to be taken.
RANDALL NOT DISTURBED.
At the RANDALL headquarters there was
less buster but not less confidence
Governor Curtin, with a sigh of relief
said 1.-THE danger is passed and we shall win tins
fight. 1t does not lie in this Congress to defeat
Mr. Randall"
Mr.. Randall was complacent, and there were new
signs of confidence in his face. To TRIBUNE cor
respondent he said: "As you know, never give
figures to any human being in fight of this sort.
will not express an opinion as to the result lou
can probably form as good an opinion about that as
can. can only say that am not disappointed
nor disturbed"
There Is no doubt that since morning some things
have come to pass for which the Randall men have
been anxiously waiting and upon which they
greatly depend for the success of their candidate;
No one need be greatly surprised If Mr.. Randall
wins, Nevertheless the "hurrah Is certainly in
favor of Mr.. Carlisle, and if the views of majority
of the Democratic representatives find free express
sion he will be the nominee.

Kent,s EurOpcan Hotel

Among the institutions that have grown
with Dallas growth, and strengthened with
her strength, is the hostelry of Alfred Kent.
Commencing in rather limited and expert
mental style, Kent has gradually advanced
in proportions Until his house has attained
all the comforts Of the English inn, with the
modern improvements of the American
system of elegant landlordship. Whilst it
is true that mot every man can keep no.
| tel, yet it is exceptionally conceded that
Kent can. His secret is an open one. Sub
stantlal, choice and well cooked viands
clean and cheerful rooms the exercise OF
an unobtrusive courtesy that creates the
prevalence of true home feelings among the
guests, are the only appliances he has EN-.
ployed to make his house the most popular
of Dallas hotels. You see it all by his cleo
| trio lights.
