A GERMAN REPUBLICAN ADDRESS OUT

rsPEcIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArCH.1
New YORK, Aug. 2S-Republicans who
nave been saying the party's National
Committee was not doing work enough for
The party and its candidates should have
seen Chairman Thomas Henry Carter to-
Day. Six days in the week is not enough
for Mr.. Carter He had nearly all of the
Etenographers and typewriters from head
quarters in his rooms at the Plaza Hotel
to-day, and kept them as busy as bees the
better part of the afternoon. He
also received visitors who called to talk
politics, among whom was Congressman
John c. Houck, of Tennessee. The na-
tioual committees of both parties have had
leading politicians from that State in this
city for several days, and it is understood
that they desire to know just what effect
the miners troubles and the Independent
candidacy of Governor Buchanan may have
on the result in Tennessee.
Mr.. Houck, who spent a long time with
Mr. Carter to-day, represents the Second or
Knoxville district in Congress, district
which includes the counties where the
miners fought their recent battles with the
militia
why Davenport is So QGiet.
The fact is noted that John l. Davenport
Chief Supervisor of Elections is keeping
quiet and contenting himself with an occa-
sional fling at the local Republican organi-
cation. Remarking on it to-day, a gentle
man connected with Republican headquar-
tiers said suggestively: "The President
hasn't published his letter of acceptance
vet. When that is done it may be seen
why Davenport is keeping in the back
ground"
Davenport is the confessed author of the
elections or "force' bill
The delay in the publication of the
Presidents letter of acceptance is being COM
mented on. 1t was understood that it was
ito be given TO the public nearly two weeks
ago 1t has been written, but it was said
to-day by one of Chairman Carter's aids
that it would not be published for some
time to come. Whitelaw Reid, it was
said, has been advised Of its contents, and
his own letter, following the same lines,
will be published soon after that of the
Presidents.
Big Victory in Maine Predicted.
Ex-Congressman Charles H. Grosvenor,
of Ohio, who has been in Maine assisting
the Republicans with his voice in their
State campaign, was at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel TO-DAY. He predicted big victory
in the Pine Tree State for his party. He
said there is no doubt that the Republican
State ticket will have a plurality of L.. 900,
and it may be much larger.
United States Senator Watson C. Squire,
Of Washington, who is in the city on a
tfsSszsiisit, took occasion to-day to reply to
the statements made by the Democratic
National Committeeman from his State,
Hugh c. Wallace, regarding the possibility
of the Democracy's CARRYING Washington.
The Senator said it is true that there is
puch jealousy between the cities of Seattle
and Tacoma, but that the jealousy is of a
business character, and has been shared as
much by Democrats as by Republicans.
He thinks the Democratic State Conven-
tion's declaration against the proposed canal
to Lake Washington, back of Seattle, will
cause disaffection in the party.
