NEW HAMPSHIRE sENAToRsHIP
The Chancss OF the Various Aspirants
for the Office.


WASHINGTON, May 5.-The New Hamp-
shire Senatorship has become a topic of
consideration among Republicans here.
Senator Bsair bas gone home TO look after
his interests and Secretary Chandler has
already been ploYing the State over for
two or three weeks. Besides these gen.
tlemen, who viii be leading candidates,
there are a host of aspirants. Ex-Sena-
tors j, w. Patterson and Il. III. Rollins,
Attorney General Mason W. Tappan,
District Attorney Burns, ex-Congress-
man Ray, OF the Second district, and Gen.
Marsten are mentioned. The candidacy
of Mr.. Rollins is reported to be only in
the contingency OF Senator Biair's re-
election being doubtful. A New Hamp-
shire politician, speaking OF the situa-
tlOh tonight, sgid "The chances are that
Mr.. Blair will be returned. He has occu-
pied a prominent position before the coun-
try on educational, temperance and labor
questions, which are Only just turning
their faces to the people aS the political
reforms of the immediate future. But his
constituency at home is an intelligent
one, advanced beyond most States in the
consideration of these SUBJECTS. The only
danger to him is one that has even greater
danger for the Republican party, 1t is
budl, ioiiOW1uB ln6 SAdtlpi6 SET III Tue
Rollins contest two years ago, minority
of the Republicans shall set themselves
up in opposition TO the caucus decision
and hold off until new man can be
brought in as a compromise. The effect
of such a course on the party dis
cipline from Maine TO Texas, at the
present time, would be exceedingly bad.
The tendency woulu be toward disorgani-
cation and disobedience of caucus obli-
CATION everywhere, when we should
rather be drawing closer together and
accepting gracefully the compromises OF
caucus consultation in order to restore
the party lines and victory. There are
number of States in which the coming
Senatorial contests would be seriously
affected by a b0lting movement in New
Hampshire. Illinois is setting the cOun-
try good example which is needed for
number of close States next winter.
Senator Blair is at q disadvantage IN the
control by Chandler of the principal Re-
publican organ of the State, and in Chan
dler's untiring ability in political man
agement. The Legislature will meet in

Two men, one white and the other a

No interest was taken in the election in
this county. Not more than one-fourth
of the usual vote was pOlled, and that
was cast principally ~ negroes, Few
Democrats went TO the polls. The entire
Republican ticket is supposed to be
elected. A light vote was also cast through
out the State. The general apathy ex-
listing precludes the hope of the result
being known for several days. The Dem
Ocrats anticipate a good working ma
.jOrity in the convention.

Incidents of the Debate.

Incidents of the Debate.
LONDON, May 5.-In the House of Com
mons this afternoon Premier Gladstone
in answer to questions stated that Sir
Peter Lumsden, the British Afghan
boundary commissioner, and Col. Stew
art, had been ordered to come home i'm
mediately. Premier Gladstone was asked
how it was that while Sir Peter Lumsden
was recalled from the Afghan frontier by
England Gen. kOmafeff was retained by
Russia, and If these facts would not indi-
cate confession of wrong on the English
side on the Afghan dispute.
Premier Gladstone stated that there
was no relation between the cases of Sir
Lumsden and Gen. KomarOff. The latter
was not recalled because he was in COM
mand of the Russian forces while Sir
Peter had been employed in a purely civil
capacity. Sir LumsGen, the Premier
added, had not been recalled, but had
been consulted upon the subject, and in
conformity with his views had been re-
quested to return to England, as 1t had
been decided to carry on in London future
communications with Russia about the
main points on the Afghan frontier line.
Both Sir Peter and Col. Stewart had been
directed to come to London.
IL - oIucldliY eAplalheu JnaI Olf IeLer
Lumsden has not been recalled from
Afghanistan in the diplomatic sense of
the term, but has been summoned to Lon
don to advise the government upon tech
nical matters regarding the delimitation
Of the frontier.
1t was rumOred in the lobby of the
House of Commons to-day that Lord Ran
dOlph Churchill intended to initiate a
Conservative vote Of censure of the gov
ernment because it has failed to protect
the interests of India.
Premier Glad tone, at the request of
the Conservatives. has consented to take
the next stage of the vote of credit on
Monday instead of Thursday. The Con-
seryatives hope that in the meantime
further light will be thrown on the
Afghan question.
GRANVILLE ON ARBITRATION.
Earl Granville, Foreign Minister,
in the House of Lords this after
noon, stated, on behalf of the gov
ernment, that he could conceive of moth
ing better than referring the dispute over
the Pendjeh incident, involving the honor
of two officers, to the decision Of a third
party in whom each side had perfect con-
fidence. In this way the whole matter
could be closed hOnorably for both sides.

stances, one Of which was the relation

read and the clerk asked him IL he was
