Been Violating the Postal Laws-secre-

WASHINGTON CITY, June 1S-President
Harrison's political friends are not discon-
certed over the story in the dispatches of
meeting of politicians at indianapolis
Thursday night to float a Gresham presi-
dental boom. The story goes that the
convention was attended by Otto Gresham
and Gen. McNulta, of Illinois: several per-
sonal friends of Gen. Alger and Exon
gresham Conger, of Ohio. There is
absolutely no reason for the presidents
political friends to fear anything from any
boom for Judge Gresham said well-in-
formed Indiana man.
a Handicap for Gresham.
a Gresham boon would be Handicapped
at the outset by the CulIom boom in Hi
nois. 1t could have no other foundation
than in Illinois, for Indiana is sure 20 be
for the presidents denomination. II
Judge Gresham can command neither the
Illinois nor Indiana delegations he could
not expect to make showing in the con-
vention. If the meeting in indianapolis
had any special object it is my belief that
1t was more in the nature of an anti Har-
rlson indignation meeting than for the
purpose of starting Gresham boom.
Gen. Harrison May Decline.
Gen. Harrison may not ask Indiana to
support him in the next convention He
may decline to make the race. for he is
even now seriously considering the mat
ter. He will consult the interests of his
party before his own personal wishes But
there is one thing most certain-whether
President Harrison Is a candidate or not.
Judge Gresham will never control an In
diana delegation. That is one of the things
in politics winch Is absolutely certain
