CHICAGO. Juno lot is to be hoped that not
too many opponents OF q European Sunday
were in Chicago to-day. II they were It was q
bitter experience. for the widest Imagination
OF what Berlin or Madrid must disclose on tho
seventh day could not approach the scene in the
Freak City OF the West To use native cowboy
expression. the whole city turned loose and
stampeded. Tho few thousands that were
corralled In tho Palmer House. tho
Grand Pacific. and the Auditorium. drove all

the four noise-laden winds. Those three
hotels initiated the situation In and around
the Tower OF Babel. as the chroniclers record
It Inside the walls the people were massed
shoulder to shoulder. so that tens OF thousands
who hoped to get in were turned away at
the portals and stood outside swelling the
crowds that blocked the roadways and pave
ments. Inside and outside everybody was
yelling. drunken men were 1Ghtngs

side the great hotel buildings forces OF police
were necessary to enable the guests to get up
and down stairs and to their rooms. In the
Palmer House there were so many policemen
that tho place looked like the old St. Louis
Hotel in New Orleans when Kellogg turned 10
into q State house and guarded 1t with
soldiers. 1t did not take a very lively fancy TO
imagine that the police were there to keep
the crowd from pushing out the walls OF the
building. for there seemed to be about i've
times as many people as there was room for.
and it looked as though should they all draw
long breath and stretch out their
chests the walls would fly into the
streets. Tho kind OF people that Geores-
calls jaw workers. were having q grand time
in all these hotels. They stood on the stair land.

crowds on the second stories OF the hotels.
were the parlors Of the leaders. They were
like the Roman gods. who were to utter the
DEGREES that should set the rabble hallooine
to some purpose.
Three OF these leaders were peculiarly inter.
esting. because they are possible candidates.
First and foremost among them in all calcula.
lions was Arthur P. German the Spartacus OF
the Democracy in the days OF Dictator Reed.
His greatness Is not obtrusive. Only those
who knew his face could point him out and
then not because he put himself in the way or
sought to attract attention. He Is clean.

eyes. thin. firm lips and q face like that of the
sphinx that no man can read. As usual. his

that no one can describe 1t. after leaving him.

with no jewelry. He keeps to his double-bed.

police barriers consulted their cards. read the
number 100. and found the door to Gorman's
parlor. Once in while the Senator slipped
out OF that door and into the rooms OF the Ma
tional Committee.
Gov Campbell Of Ohio lives at the Grand
Pacific. but spent good deal OF the time In

q colder blooded man than Presidential
candidate ought to be. He Is tall. squares

wears very small moustache and has exceed
ingly black eyes. He is very careful In mat

Congress-. he was socially prominent. al-
though the Governor. as he Is called gener.
ally in Ohio. does not like to be put down as Q
society man. He Is battling with another
popular tendency Just now. He does not want
to be put down as candidate. With his own
hand he wrote an interview. published in the
Chicago Herald this morning. in which he says
that the effort to get him out from behind
Cleveland is part OF the trap the anti Cleveland
men are setting to dissipate Cleveland's
strength in a swarm OF "favorits son" candi-
dates. AS he talks this way privately and to
his intimates and assures the Ohio delegation
that he is not seeking any honor. his al.
legiance to Cleveland ought not to be cues.
