And His Prospects Looking Bright

the Westarn Germans.
Baltimore Day, Saturday.
An intimate personal friend Of Senator
Bayard, in ar interview yesterday with
Day reporter In Warrington, spoke very
hopefully Of the senator's nomination.
"Since the New York convention
Bayard stock has gone up wonderfully"
said he. "Psople are finding ont that
Cleveland Ia mot so available after ALL"
"What will Kelly do In case Cleveland
Ia nominated 7" asked the reporter.
FIFTY thousand TAmmapy vosers will
stay at home. While they may not
work against him, they will not support
him. He cannot get their voies.''
"Well, do you think they can be
trusted to support Mr.. BayardHn
"Oh, yes There Is no question about
that. The senator is perfectly acceptable
to Kelly. Tammsny ia going to Chicago
,O0O strong. and every man Of them iR
for Bayard.''
"Do you fear Blaine on the Pacific

that IT was vetoed by a Republican Presi.

when the veto was announced H''
"Who is preferable to the business
men, Cleveland or BAyard Z"
sit New York City, where Gov.
Cleveland should be the strongest, II the
strongest anywhere, the merchants and
business people are in favor OF Bayard.
They remember the work of the committee
which investigated the .moisiy system. :
The cross examination was conducted by
the senator, and through his efforts .
rotten practice was broken up and the
merchants relieved OF great imposition.
The Germans in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois
and Wisconsin prefer Bayard to
Cleveland" continued the gentleman,
copy Of the Washington Sentinel was
here produced, which contained inter views
with leading Germans in the west, many
OF whom are delegates to the Democratic
convention. Bsyard was the ohuioe Of
nearly If not all Of these before Cleveland.
"The fight" concluded the gentleman,
will probably be at Chicago. It was
the case four years ago, and 1t looks az
though there will be repetition Of tia
same thing this year. We claim now
decided majority, and We are pretty sure
OF holding that and gaining more -
MR. BAYARD IN MARYLAND.
There is every reason to believe that
Mr.. Bayard will get the solid support OF
the Maryland delegation. The abortive
Cleveland hurrsh, started just before the
New York convention, has been prsoti-
cslly cut short in the throats Of the dis
appointed shouters. DR.. Thom's Cleve-
