CHICAGO. June lot was An almost sombre

playing solemn air. the club paraded down
Michigan averue. in front OF the great hotels.
In the procession were nearly three hundred
men. and all We're dressed In black clothes
and wore black gloves.
This club is named after the man who car
ried Indiana for Cleveland. and who from the
cay he became Vice President was neglected
anc Stunned by Cleveland until the hour Of
his death. These men Of the club have not
forgotten Cleyelands treatment. nor the fact
that the eX-President preferred to r.naiI
away from the funeral of one Of Indana's
most eminent Democrats.
This is not the only I'D sore that Is noticed
in the streets OF Chicago on this occasion. The
friends of Daniel Manning in the New York
delegation constantly speak Of him and then
OF Cleveland. and the remarks are not compli-
nentary To the .X-President
As one eminent Democrat put IL to-day.
"Cleyeiand's record is one long chapter 81

the Democratic party. We cannot win with

ply did most OF the talking this afternoon and

vote themselves to visitors from other dele
cations. Congressman Burke Cochran was
busy the greater part OF tho time with the

that David Il. Hill was elected Licu.onant-G Gov

dent carried the State by 1.14H. ard tho

Hi carried tho State by a plurality Of 1912.
The difference in the vote between Cleveland
and Hill was 3l.1S4 This. notwthstand-
ing the fact that Mr.. Hill neglect
ed his own canvass in the state and
stumped Indiana and other States in the intor-
est Of Mr.. Cleveland. Three years later Ros-
we'll P. Flower succeeded David Z. Hill as
Governor. He was elected by a plurality OF
4T.937. Mr. Hill became Governor when the
State debt was over s700o.O0O: when
he left the office the debt was only

ment that he is not candidate for the office.
Mr.. Kitchener says:
Il must positively decline to be considered
in connection with the Craftsmanship OF the
National Committee or with any other place
connected with the committee. The truth is
that my business engagements are such as to
prevent me from accepting any place OF the
sort even il had the opportunity or the de-
sire. l think this statement Is only right
to be made by me at this time in justice to
other people who are thinking OF some oi these
positions. In my judgment l would say tina.
the Chairmanship will probably go either to
New York. Pennsylvania. or Illinois. although.

the subject
It's generally understood that in this last
remark NJ. Kitchener has reference TO Gen.
