VERY MUCH LIKE GORMAN.
Indications ThasIa Boom is Beginning
to Appear.

to Appear.
The day that Speaker Crisp announced
his committees, aud just after the adjourn~
ment Of the House, says a Washington
special OF Jan. 8 to the New York Times, a
gentleman having an intimate acquaintance
with the speaker said on the floor of the
House and to the writer: Don't you think
that things begin to look very much like
German 2"
The writer, who noticed that things about
the canvass of Mr.. Crisp hsd "looked like
German" for several days Of the preceding
week, ventured to admit that they did, and
then asked: I'm what respect ~
& The intimate acquaintance of the speaker
answered: For the presidency"
There was no suggestion that the speaker
had inspired the remark, and it is possible
that he did so. But it Is clear to good
many pc sons here that the German
boom" is beginning to assert itself, and
there is an indication Of it in an evening
paper that is rather conservative about as
sisting booms before they appear co be de-
serving of public recognition.
Germans "boomn received an impetus
upon the arrival Of Hill, and the very COR
dial relations at once established between
these Siamese twins of tricky democracy
are construed to mean that Hills object in
man. Having met yesterday in a very cons
fidential manner, and again this morning in
the same afRectlonate way, 1t is now as
serted by knowing politician at the CAPT.
tai that Cleveland is not TO be sin it," that
German is to be the candidate and that Hill
is to wait for 1896 before asking to be re-
leved of further service in the senate.
The Star says that German is almost uni
versally favored in the south. 1t has heard
fhof ha ic r,f,yNI1lar in tho hicr nd
believes that Hill can get New York for
him. The plans of the senatorial managers
for the Democratic party are very likely to
develop in this way. They do not want
Cleveland if they can cheat the people out
Of his candidacy. They do not care when it
is suggested that Maryland can be carried
| by any body, and that it does not make a
particle of difference whom the south
| favors il the man favored in that section is
not acceptable to the east and northwest.
] The patrons of the German movement
| are about as indifferent to the future as
were the supporters of Crisp. They may be
successful, in the present feeling Of the
Democratic party, in securing the nomiua-
| ton Of German. Eastern men are out
spoken In expressing their belief that If
! German is nominated he will have to be
elected without the help OF Massachusetts,
| Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York or
to the Democratic party.
| In O. conversation among the eastern men
here Yesterday, several of them declared
that the neglect Of tariff legislation and the
passage of free silver bill will result in the
recovery by the republicans OF every con-
| gressional district except that OF ONeal of
Massachusetts, and the disappearance of the
large delegation OF eastern democrats In the
| present congress.
| Rut Gornen,s nomination will make
Maryland surely democratic.
IT MADE HILL SMILE.
An interesting tale, to the effect that ex
Senator Wallace, Congressman Mutchler,
Eckley B. Scott, J. NJ. Gufey, State Chair
man Kerr and other prominent Pennsyl-
vania democratic politicians, had met prom
inent democrats from New York, Indiana,
| Ohio and other states in conference at
Wizards last night, appeared IN the New
! York Sun this morning. Since the San
left the Associated Press, by the way, 1t
eau no longer be claimed OF anything rouud
| in it's columns that tits So"
It was announced that each man in the
distinguished party represented distinct
and personal following, aud extensive nnau-
cial resources. Before they broke up they
we're pledged to aid in making Hill the
narty,s candidate" Other information
Given in this precious story was that Mr..
| Kerr, who IS the CteEk VI VIC A1Ou Va ~
resentatives, by the way, would yield to
appeals and accept a reelection as chairman
man of state committee, and that "Fennsyl-
vania's delegation will be arranged to vote
for Hill for President" Other statements
NJ like tenor were made.
MIR Kerr returned from Philadelphia this
morning. where he had been since yester-
dav afternoon, ana found number OF
Kilograms awaiting his perusal. They con-
tanned inquiries concerning the alleged
neetiny. Mr.. Kerr was as much In the
dark as his interrogators, but he replied
that be had attended no such meeting as
the one mentioned by the Sun and dld not
beiieve that such meeting bad been held.
His subsequent investigations showed HIM
hat he was correct in his assumptions
None of the men except Mr.. Mutchler was
in Washington last night and that gentle,
man ia known to be an ardent Cleveland
man. .L,a ufoLor
d,snatch does not appear. Senator hi
smiled tonight when asked If he had nearo
81 onIy know what l read in the SUM- ne
soid s'If such a meeting had been held: !,
seems to me that would have known Oh II
