Now there is ono serious objection to all

CHICAGO, June 21.-The grand jury

morning, and At once started in to look up
Alexander Sullivsn's speculatiOns.
Messrs. Schwartz and Dupee were sub
peued to bring the books into the grand
jury room for inspection. 1t is believed
that in this way light will be thrown upon
features of Alexander Sullivan's specu-
latiug record, which have hitherto escaped
scrutiny. The actions of the police indi-
cate that some arrests are about to be
made. Some one is reported to have
"squealed police refuse to say who,

CONGRESSMAN CAMPBELL THINKS FORA
KBR Is D00NRD.
The Butler County Leader Sees Democratic Victory
in the An-A Scathing Review Of Fora
ksrs Career as GovsrnOr-His
De'aai Certain.

NRw YORK, June 27.-The World will
print the folio wing interview in the morn
ing:
Ex-COngressman James E. Campbell, Of
Hamilton, Ohio who has habit of win
ming Democratic victories in Republican
districts, and who is named as the most
probable Democratic candidate for Govern
OF, was found in his room at the Astor
House in very happy mood. He had
heard Of the news of Foraker's renOmina-
tiOn, and rejOiced greatly, for he felt conf
dent that
OHIO WOULD NOT STAND A THIRD TRRM
GOVERNOR.
Especially one who had made so many
powerful enemies among the better class
Of Republicans. Mr.. Campbell c0yly
admitted that he was a candidate for
Governor, bat said he would not search
for a nomination. There were three
OF four good men who stood 6
good chance, but in Repub-
lican State he thought that each
Of them would want pretty spontaneous
call 70 induce them 10 run. Foraker 2
race, ne thought, was about run, and his
chances for 1892 were very small. His
great desire now is the United States SEN
atorship, although the fact that he is a
poor man makes him hesitate about join
ing the PlutOcrats' Club.
''But that is the place he really yearned
after" said Mr.. Campbell. HE can gain
no further glory out Of the Guhsrnstorial
fgure-bead business.
FORAKRR HAS WEAKENED HIMSELF
very much by being too much of politi-
cian. He Lost many friends, including the
soldier vote, and gained an election fol- me
by removing Major H. P. Lloyd from the
trusteeship OF the Xenia Soldiers and
Sailors Orphans Home for no other rea-
sons than to make it a political machine,
and his course toward Sherman, Butter
worth and others has made the host of op-
ponents in his own party very powerful.
| Then, too, his course toward the cities,
and here Mr., Campbell grew very warm,
''has been such as to weaken him greatly
among the better class OF voters. see to-
day that the convention adopted a vote Of
sympathy for home rule in Ireland, and
yet every city of 10000 inhabitants and
over in Ohio is living
IN SLAVERY TO FORAKER

Eight of ColumbIa's Crew Victims of Over
work.

Eight of Columbia Crew Victims of Over
work.
NEW LONDON, CT, June N.-The fea-
lures of to-day's boat race IVES the exciting
contest between Cornell and Columbia and
the sensational collapse OF the Columbia
crew the instant they crossed the finish
line behind Cornell When they stopped
rowing six OF them, Bradley, No.
/; Meilhim, No 2; Roberts,
No. 3, O'Gourman No. 4, and Klapp No.
6. fell over in a dead faint, completely
exhausted. Five of the six broken-down
men recovered consciousness within a few
minutes, but Meilhim was uncon-
scious for fully thirty MINUTES.
The six men mentioned were then lifted
out of their shell and placed on board the
Carrie Goodwin. While these transfers
were being made, ths two other men in
the Columbia boat, Tuttle No. 8 and Pei
ton stroke, also tainted and had to be az
sisted out Of their boat.
There was great excitement, but the
men ere reported to be coming around well
this evening. 1t was simply case OF
over exertion. Cornell won.
The following is the official time of the
freshmen race: Harvard, 1921; Columbia,
1928.
In the triangular race no time was taken
of any crew but Columbia and this is not
official. The approximate time as taken
from the press boat is Columbia 1880.
