To Thwart Threatened Republican Out
RACES and kascaIIty.
New YORK, Dec. 9.-Senators Carlisle
German and Brice, the comm iLlee OF the
Democratic caucus in Washington, az.
rived in New York early this morning
They met at the Fifth Avenue Hotel
and were driven to the residence of eX.
Secretary WhlOney, whe e they spent
the day. The following official state
ment was handed out by Senator Cor
man tonight:
Senators Carlisle, Bruce and German
in reply to inquiries as 10 the object OF
their visit to New York, said that they
had no hesitation in stating what it was
| The statement made in part in The pub
lie press that they were here for the pur.
pose of conter:ing with President.elect
Cleveland in reference to the incomiu q
administration, was, they said, without
warrant, and there was absolutely no
truth In it..
The Democrats of the Senate are very
much concerned about the publications.,
which indicates that there is an Orya-
niZpd attempt TO reverse the will OF The
people expressed at the late election. 1t
was understood by everybody, until the
pasL few days, that the Democrats had
not only elected the President and Wee.
President and large ma OritY OF the
House Of Representatives., but that they
would have Il clear majority in the Sen,
ate OF the United States. thus enabling
measures Tor which the Democratic par
ty stood in the late campalyu to be
enacted into laws. To the surprise OF
all, it was found that the attempt t,
change the political complexion OF the
Legislatures IN Kansas, Nebraska
Wyoming, North Dakota and California
was serlou sly under way.
Their visit here is TO confer with the
campaign committee Of the Democratic
National Committee, and 10 take meas
ures that will prevent the consummatlou
OF this outrage. They came TO New y ora
TO col,fer with such members of the cam
| paign com nitlee of the national com
mittee as are present, and they hope
before leaving, TO coulter with the entire
committee.
In reply to the question, What W il
your committee do in a case Of tha
sort?" it was said: 1.-The national com
mitLee can do nothing more than tC
counsel with the committeeman iron
each OF tile States that are threatened hN
these returning boards, and with the
chairman OF the State central committee
and give them such encouragement ant
advice as the case, may reqmle. Th,
main work must be done by The variou
residents Of The State. but we Cal
encourage them and be kept full,
Informed, 80 that when case comes
before the United State Senate all the
information and all the facts may be
properly brought before that body, aud
we may not be in position that we
were in the Montana case. where the
Democrats carried the State aud a ma
iority of the Legislature, and yet by
sharp manipulation two Republican
Senators were seated. In short, what
we desire 20 do is to see the will OF the
people properly recorded in the election
of Senators in the Sta les named.
