MORRISON a CANDIDATE.
Tho Illinois Free Trader May be Sprung
on tho Chicago ConysntIon.

Oh tho Chicago Convention.
CHICAGO, May 23.-Col. William R.
Morrison, chairman of the interstate
commerce commission, and for many
years chairman Of tho ways and means
committee OF the house OF representa-
tives, has suddenly forged to the front
as somewhat formidable presidential
candidate and his friends assert he will
be presented to the national convention
as the choice OF the Illinois delegation
in case Cleveland is not nominated by
storm in the early enthusiasm OF the
convention. In the meeting OF the new
state committees in this city to-day was
the occasion for tho gathering OF most OF
the Illinois delegates and politicians
IRON all quarters OF the state, and was
productive OF not little surprise when
the presidential preference OF the dele
gates were canvassed.
The forty-eight delegates from Illinois
are instructed to vote as unit in the
national convention. and recommended
10 favor the nomination OF Senator Pal
mer in case it should be deemed ex-
pedicnt to come west for presidential
candidate. 1t now. appears certain,
however, that Colonel Morrison and not
Senator Palmer is the choice Of very
decided majority OF tho Illinois dele
gates, and that after primary ballot
for Cleveland and complimentary one
for Palmer, it is tho intention OF the
majority to throw the solid support OF
the forty-eight votes OF Illinois to Col
onel Morrison. Under the unit rule
imposed by the state convention this
can very easily be done, and as even
tho friends of Palmer conccde that
Colonel Morrison has q majority OF the
delegates in the delegation, there is
little doubt that tho plan will be carried
out. 1t was perhaps by no prcarranged
coincidence that Col. Morrison himself
was in the city to-day on his way to at
tend meeting of the commission at
Minneapolis, but however that may be,
he.wa busy during most OF the day re,
cciving visitors and holding conferences
with political leaders from all portions
oi the state. To tho press the great
tariff reiormer maintained a discreet
silence as to his intentions and presi-
dental prospects, but his friends were
quito enthusiastic in insisting that he
would receive the support OF Missouri,
Arkansas, Texas. Kentucky and, indeed,
nearly all the solid south whenever the
Illinois delegation should present his
name to the national convention.
