He Will BE Made the Leader OF the
Minority.

WASHINGTON. July 1l.-There seems
10 be no doubt that ex-Speaker
Reed will be the caucus nominee
Of the republican representatives
for speaker Of the house. The
suggestion Of Jerry Simpson. that
Representative Burrows VI Michi-
gan might be made the candidate Of q
fusion element including republicans,
populists and free coinage democrats
has been repudiated by Mr.. Burrows
and the general scheme itself Of the
third party leader finds no commenda-
ton among the republicans.
There is not q republican representa-
tive now in Washington who does not
express the belief that Mr. Reed will re-
ceive the nomination unanimously and
thus again be clothed with the
powers OF leadership Of the mi.
nority OF the house His pre-
eminent qualities az a leader
were shown In the last session. At pres
emit il looks as il each Of the three poll
teal parties represented in the house
would make caucus nominations fol
speaker. and that each nominee will Sc
cure practically the unanimous vote Of
his party.
