COMING TO HEApouARrxRs
The advance guard Of the victorious hosts
that won the fight as Minneapolis are coming
into headquarters to report in person to their
chief and bare their brows TO receive the laurels
Of the conquerors. Battle-begrimed thew may
be, wsg-worn and weary, vet scatheless withsl
and with not color Lost in the hght They
march proudly up the White House stairway
room-swings open at their approach and they
enter an atmosphere Of warmth and cordially.
The great mass OF the fighters who swept the
anti-Harrison legions from the face Of the po-
Htical earth last week have. Of course, returned
to their homes and are probably going through
the ancient and honorable custom Of beating
their swords into plowshares and their spears
into pruning hooks. But the generals and the
fighting captains who led the fray will continue
TO drop into the White House at intervals to
tell the President how it was done.
COL. NEWS WARN GREETING.
Col Jno. c. New, the commander-in-chief OF
the Harrison forces, has reported. II is said
that the meeting between the President and his
victorious general was almost affecting in its
warmth and cordiality and that the man who
says Benjamin Harrison is Of q cold. unre-
sponsive nature would have been greatly sur
prised could he have stood the warm tempera-
ture OF the surroundings long enough TO have
witnessed the scene.
Col. New is Of very modest, retiring dis
position and seems entirely unconscious Of
being the hon OF the hour.
Col. New thinks that the result of the Mime
apolis fight is due to the worthiness Of the cause
and the candidate rather than TO the efforts Of
the men who fought the battle. This is becom-
ing modestv, Of course, in the man who led the
battle, and vet there is in it a sincere feeling
upon Col. News part for the President and his
administration.
81 am almost absolutely sure that the repub-
licsn party will carry the November elections"
said Col New. The prospect for victory was
never better. There viii not be the opposition
to Mr.. Harrisons reelection that confronted
him when be first went before the people for
election"
Col New, who holds the remunera.ive posi-
ton Of consul general at London, will return
to his post at an early date, probably leaving
some time this week.
RETURNING DELEGATES TALK.
Col. A. NJ. Hughes, who was chairman Of the
Tennessee delegation at Minneapolis, called to
see the President today, accompanied by Con-
gresham Taylor of Tennessee. Col Taylor
was enthusiastic over the nomination.
ave are going to make big fight in Ten
nessee," he said, land We think we have good
man to lead u.s."
Two members OF the Virginia delegation at
the convention are in the CITY on their way
home. They are fairly bubbling over with en-
thusiasm and confidence.
.we are going to carry Virginia for the re-
publicans beyond the shadow of q doubt" said
one Of them.
Ex-Congressman Cutcheon of Michigan called
at the White House today. To STAR man be
said: .'of course there is a little disappointment
in Michigan, but it won't last long. We viii
turn TO with will and roll up handsome ma
jority for the President, although l don't be-
lieve it will be large the one we gave him
In lsss. which Was 2S 900: but there viii be har-
mony and peace in the ranks and we will make
