MILLS AND CRISP,
Both Speakership Candidates In Town and
Zach Confident of Success.


Both Speakership Candidates In Town and
Each Confident of Success.
The presence of Mr.. Mills and Mr. Crisp in
Washington renews the speakership discussion,
but there have been no new developments in
the situation. Mr.. Mills is just out of the Ohio
campaign and Mr.. Crisp is just going into it.
Both appear to be confident and it becomes
more and more apparent matters advance
that the contest for the speakership lies be-
tween them.
Mr.. Mills is said to have considerable strength
among new members of the west and to have
recently gained new courage through being
able to secure the support lof some of Mr..
Clevelands friends.
Mr.. Crisp claims the support Of an extraordi-
nariiy large percentage of the old members
who have served with him in the House. and is
credited with great strength in New York and
New England. His friends assert that he is in
the lead of all the candidates, and that Mr. Mills
stands second in the strength Of his following
Mr.. Mills has kept out Of sight since his re-
on Capitol Hill. but those who have talked
with him say he is pleased with the outlook in
Ohio and expresses the greatest confidence in
the success OF his own canvass for the speaker
ship.
has received on the speaLership question has
been satisfactory. While he does not express
confidence in words, he evidently agrees with
his friends that he is very apt to be Speaker of
the next House.
He leaves for New York this evening and will
return In time to reach Cleveland, Ohio, Sun
day night. He is to speak in Cleveland ON
Monday, probably with Gov. Campbell, and he
will be in the campaign in Ohio tor perhaps ten
days.
He will talk tariff reform and says that that
is the issue in the Ohio contest, which the re-
publicans cannot avoid with Mckinley as their
leader. He will make two or three speeches in
New York and at least one in Massachusetts, be-
fore the campaign closes.
