Dy Associated Press.)


CHICAGO. June 15.-The Inter-Ocean
this morning publishes the following:
Secretary of State Walter Q. Gresham
is said to be a candidate OF the Illinois
Populists for United States Senator to
succeed Senator Cullom."
This news reached Chicago the same
DAY the Secretary arrived here. The
coincidence is striking. but what Is
still more striking Is the fact that the
scheme In regard to Judge Gresham
comes from no less a Populist leader
than H. E. Taubeneck. who Is Chairman
OF the National Executive Committee
of the Popullst party,
Chairman Taubeneck is convinced that
this year large numbers OF Democrats
will vote the Popullst ticket, and esti-
mates that the Populist vote In Illinois
will not fall short of G0.000, and may go
beyond 100000. He is figuring that from
one to Ave or six members OF the Leg
tslature may be elected In November.
These members. he says, will hold the
balance OF power between the Republic
cans and Democrats in the Legislature.
Neither Republicans nor Democrats
would then elect United States Sena-
tor, and Judge Gresham will be entirely
satisfactory to the Popuiists. Secretary
Gresham has had Information as TO the
movement. but declines to discuss pol

The marriage of a foreign un-ortnooox
Princess TO a Russian heir-apparent neces-
states three distinct ceremonies-reconcllla-
tion 10 the Orthodox Church, oetrotnsl
and nuptials. The ceremonies formerly
were always separate, but the betrothal
and actual marriage latterly have often
been performed together. An imperial
manifesto on this subject is expected from
LivRdia. ,-
Judging by the telegraphic inquiries re.
ceived from abroad there must be Tar
more visible spontaneous concern In the
foreign capitals than is noticed in the sur
face of St. Petersburg, where the press IS
not allowed to utter q single worn
of the sorrow at the bedside OF
the sick monarch. In the remoter parts OF
the empire there are probably whole pop.u-
lations who had hardly yet heard that the
Car is seriously i'll. As Russian has eX-
pressed il, the Russian newspapers are
waiting to know when the police will allow
them to weep and to express their feellngs
freely.
