Colonel William K. Morrison contented himseH
with the remark that .tha Democrats are hckeo'
but not conquered" Some Democrats VINO are
willing to discuss the matter privately asserted
that general dissatisfaction with the National Al
mnistration was responsible for the disasters which
had overwhelmed the Democratic party IN the Nor'h
and Vost-a statement which holly denied and
bitterly denounced untrue by other Democrats
who declared that the anti Administration iac'ioh
was wholly to blame. One of them IN conversation
with a Tribune correspondent. boldly asserted that
"the nomination OF Maynard. despite the fact that
his defeat was known to be inevitable was ioreeu
bv David Il. Hill and his friends In order 10 EN-
barrass President Cleveland and his Adminstra-
ton" He did not try to show any relation between
tho nomination of Maynard in New-York ana the
crushing Democratic defeat in Massachusetts New
Jersey. Pennsylvania, Ohio and Iowa.
The charges and counter-charges made by men,
bers of the opposing Democratic factions nave al
ready developed a vast amount OF bitterness ana
are ranid,v intensifying the hostility which became
