WORK DONE YESTERDAY.
David b. HIPS deputation of political strangers
Organized for the purpose of choking the life out
| of the Cleveland movement was reinforced yes
tcrday by another member of the triumvimte
United States Senator Calvin S. Brce, OF Ohio and
New-Yorll, the chairman of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee. The news Of the revolt against
Partner Hill had brought Mr.. Brice promptly to
New-York, and he lost litte time in putting MN
self in communication with the other member OF
| Che syndicate Senator German. The Maryland
| Senator had been aboring hard since his arrival
on Thursday evening to stem the tide, but had
found it setting heavily against Hill. Mr. Brlce
and Mr. German held long consultation, at which
the unpleasant change in Mr.. Hills campaign
was considered. Senator German, it is reported,
told Senator Bricc that he had done everything
in his power 10 prevent certain prominent Demo-
crots from Joining in the ant-Hil movement,
which first broke cover in Friday nights Murray
Hill Hotel meeting but without any degree oi
success Both Senators are represented as haNlh@
EXPRESSED surprise at the strength and rapld
growth of the revolt againt the Ex-Governor.
They are both disgusted with Hill, said New
York politician who had talked with both "orman
and Bricc and think that he did very iooilSh
thing when he rushed down here from Albany
and tried TO smother the opposition to hih. lheI
cannot fail 70 see that by so doing he may sue
cccd in increasing the Importance of the Cleve-
land schemes
Not few Tammanv leaders took the same
view of IIilrs tactics. 1t is the weakest move
that Hill ever made said Sachcm Of the Column
ban Order. "Th' fact is that when he heard oi
the Grace -Andcrson-Fairchild plan OF attack ne
got ratified and lost his head
Senator German Withdrew from the Held NeS'er-
dav afternoon and took the "tongreSslohal tram
back I, Washington at 30 p. m. Those VINO saw
him depart say that he looked adcd and dlsplrted'
Nevertheless. it is predicted by those who have
bccn close oFs,rvcrs Of Mr.. Gormans political
career that nobody can throw Hill overheard more
quickly than will The Marylander. If he finds the
oppo.ition 10 him i strong enough to destroy the
ex. Governors prestige in the State of Ncw-Iork
