a Chicago story.

The story Of a plot to make Judge
Gresham President, telegraphed from Chi
{ cago, may have some foundation, but the
/ chances are that il hasn't The story is
that q number Of the repub lican senator's
who are'hostiie to Gen. Harrison and who
were active in trying TO prevent his re-
nomination have arranged with some of the
more prominent OF the third party leaders
to nave the Republican and third party
/ presidential electors cast their votes for
Judge Gresham in the event that no one of
! the presidential candidates secures a ma
/ jority of the electors. II there should be
no election by the electoral college the
House Of Representatives would have to
elect President from among the pres
idential candidates, and Mr.. Cleveland
would, of course, be chosen, because the
House is largely democratic.
To carry out the scheme TO elect Judge
Gresham it would be necessary to get the
consent of the electors Of the Peoples and
Republican parties. 1t is not improbable
that the electors of these two parties could
be induced to vote for Judge Gresham,
though it would be a rather difficult matter
to get the republican electors to do so, be-
cause Of the enmity between Gen. Harrison
and Judge Gresham. The chances are that
the republican electors would rather see
Mr.. Cleveland than Judge Gresham elected.
1t Is alleged that a number of senator's Of
the Republican and Peoples parties had
about agreed upon their plan whom Judge
Gresham announced his purpose TO vote for
Mr.. Cleveland. A committee was at once
sent to Chicago to get him to dsny that he
had made such an announcement, and to
make known to him the fact that there was
chance for him to get the presidency. The
fact that Judge Gresham has refused to be
interviewed relative to the announcement
Of his purpose to vote for Mr.. Cleveland is
referred to as an indication that he has the
plot Of the conspirators under consideration.
It's true that Judge Gresham has many
friends in the Republican party, but they
are not among the friends of Gen. Harri-
son, and now that Gen. Gresham has come
out for Mr. Cleveland it would be next 20
impossible to get any considerable part of
the Republican party to sanction a deal
with the Peoples party in his behalf.
But the talk of a deal between the Re-
publican and Peoples party indicates that
in the minds of many prominent repub-
licans Gen. Harrison's chance for being re-
elected is not good. There lie no enthusiasm
for him and he appears to be losing, rather
than gaining, strength.
In some of the southern states there may
be fusion Of the Republican and Peoples
parties, but there will be none in the cleo
toral college II Gen. Harrison doesen't
get majority of the presidential electors
no republican will be elected President.
and il there is no election by the electoral
college Mr.. Cleveland will be elected Presi-
dent by the House. 1t is pretty certain,
however, then Mr.. Cleveland Will be chosen
by the electoral college.
