WASHINGTON LETTER,

(From our regular correspondent
The next Speaker of the House will
bo M. Mills-Crisp -McMillin-
Springer Hatch, just as certain as
the caucus meets next Saturday. As "a
prophet with a reputation to maintain,
there are no signs visible that would
justify your correspondent in dropping
any portion of this composite namo.
In plain everyday talk, these five
gentlemen and their friends are en-
gagged in conducting one OF the liveliest
and the most uncertain campaigns for
the Speakership ever known. Each of
them is apparently confident OF win
ing. 1t is conceded by the other can
didates that Mills and Crisp are well
in the lead. but they contend that
, neither of thcm can get votes enough
to get nominated and that after two or
three ballots are taken without result,
there will be stampede to other can
didates. Mr.. Crisp's friends boldly
claim his nomination without fail on
the FIST ballot, while the advocates
OF Mr.. Mills say that he will be nomi-
mated on the second or at the outside
rived wfeallot.
