CoNFABs OF REPUBLICANS.
Varying Opinions as Expressed at
the Hotels.

Varying Opinions as Expressed at
the Hotels.
There were confabs earnest and strong
among Republican delegates at the
various hotels last night, getting ready
for the fray today. There was one at
the Ryan and two at the Windsor. One
of the latter were off in a room by them
selves, which looked very for.
NAL. The other was in the Wind
Sor corridor. Here the delegates
and among them were Gen. Nj. d. Flow.
er and E. S. Warner-were busily COM
pairing notes. 1t leaked out that the
factions supporting McGilI and Doran
have not developed the strength that
they expected. 1t was strongly rumored
that there was great PROBABILITY that
neither faction would be able to swing
either McGill or Doran before the con-
vention, and that E. G. Rogers was
hourly gaining strength. aud would be
run i'll as a dark horse. One euthusi-
astic Republican did not hesitate to say
that he believed all factions would unite
on Mr.. Rogers, and that he would final-
ly be nominated with whoOp.
While all this was going on o. 0.
Cullen sat calmly surveying the scene,
apparently perfectly at ease. A prom
inent Republican said to GLOBE re-
porter that he felt firmly convinced that
if any friend OF Aid. Cullen should
chance to be present IN the Republican
convention today, and should finally
nominate Mr.. Cullen. that the conven-
tion would indorse him. He predicted
that Mr.. Cullen would carry it all his
way. Such were the differing opinions.

be the result of selecting either one as
our party leader. 1t is manifest that
one will provoke a religious issue which
we cannot successfully face, and that
the other will arouse local jealousy
which will prove fatal.
Why throw away our glorious victory
of two years ago and all its fruits. For
the first time in over twenty years st.
Paul has enjoyed Republican admin
istration, and in spite of the ISLANDERS of
the GLOBE, the gang and the men
turned out of Office. | am here to de-
clare, and declare it boldly, that it has
been pronounced success.
1t is true that our successful standard
bearer Of two years ago has declined to
be again candidate, but this.l believe.
was due to unjust criticism of political
enemies. After the honors already re-
ceived at our hands, he cannot and will
not refuse to again lead US to victory.
All agree that it was unjust not to
give Gov. McGill second term, and to
take up a new man at this time is to
acknowledge before the people that the
Republican administration of the past
two years has been a failure. And if
we go to the voters with such a declara-
tion, what reason will they have for
continuing us in power second term?

First Ward.

In the First ward John Copeland car
ried through his entire list of twenty
two delegates. The delegation is unin-
structed. 1t is claimed by McGill's
friends as an entirety; but the impress
ion prevails strongly among some Re-
publicans that the majority of it is for
Doran. The belief is expressed that
John Copeland is strong DoraD man.
and that he has taken good care to work
in majority of the number for his
favorite candidate.
About the only fight in the ward was
over the candidates for the assembly
and board OF aldermen. Copeland will
receive the solid vote for the assembly,
and A Lindahl, the Payne avenue jew
eler, will be equally supported for ward
alderman. The opposition ticket for the
assembly was o. II. Aronson, and for
alderman, Emil Skoog. The winning
ticket received Lis votes to 451 for the
losing ticket. Following is the list of
elected delegates:
John II. Wolterstorff, John Copeland,
Charles Wallblom, John Sandell, John
Bodin, L. D. Sheehan, Matt Jensen,

Second Ward.

The Second ward elected a solid Do
ran delegation, fourteen men. 1t is
stated by weilknown Protestant Repub-
llcans that every man of the delegation
except one is a member of the A. p. A..
organization. The delegation was
elected by a majority OF 121.
The ticket ON which was printed the
successful delegates was headed by the
name of Aid. Zimmerman for alderman.
This, Of course, insures the renomina-
tion of the alderman. No disturbances
are reported from the Second, but there
was good deal of skirmishing between
the Doran and McGill factions. The
latter was not, however, at any tine
equal to the Doran forces.
Thomas Joice is said to be the mem.
Der of the delegation who is not an A.
P. A. man. The winning delegation is
as follows!

the Kenny henchmen were too many
for him. and the result was the Kenny
delegates were elected by three to one.
w. c. Duffy, j. G. Reichart and John
Harris were planted in front Of the win-
dow of the voting booth as challengers.
but as Harris represented Hanley his
challenges, although numerous, did not
carry much weight. The judges asked
each voter his name and address, and
also if he voted the Republican ticket
at the last election. If he had the
Kenny ticket In his hands no particular
objection WAS madeto his voting.
The Hanley ticket received II votes
ami the Kenny ticket 209. The mem-
bers of the winning delegation claimed
they were unpledged as to the mayor
atty fight and also the other Off ces.
Hanley said his delegation, if elected,
would have been for Rogers.

Eighth Ward.

The delegation elected in the Eighth
ward is uninstructed, and claimed by
all factions on the mayoralty question.
1t seems. however, to be pretty well
settled that Doran has four, McGill ten,
and the remaining four may support
Wright's candidate.
The only fight in the ward was over
the candidate for city treasurer. There
were tickets for Assemblyman Johnson,
Matt Jensen, and e. l.. Herst. The
Johnson ticket won over both the other
candidates more than three to Que. The
elected delegation is as follows:
A. Defiel, Ferdinand Boyer, Gates A.

move was made so quietly and
shrewdly that the other lieutenants of
McGiii and Doran were taken unawares
when they learned of it, and they made
an effort to f0restall the plan to go over

very probable that Gen. Flower Will
keep his promise. and nominate Mr..
Lightner. but there will he contest.
The Doran and McGill men Will pro-
pose the name of f. G. Stevens for
chairman. and will make a fight for
him. -

A RnIns.l Wedding Cake.

An English gentleman residing in Calcutta brought an action against a hrm of Paris pastry cooks and confec- tionets under rather interesting circum- stances. The blaihtiff was about to be married and ordered what has been call. ed phenomenal wedding cake from the defendants. A sum of Sl20 was paid down for the cake on delivery, The colossal and expensive article of confectionary was packed by the plain tiff's order, and he took it with him to Calcutta. On opening the caso contain ing the cake when he arrived in India, the Englishman found that he had lit erally nothing but a shapeless mass of crumbs. The splendid gateau had been hopelessly bruised and broken during the. voyage.
 An action was then brought against the Paris firm for asum of $l35, which included, besides the price paid for the cake, the cost of packing and transport. The defendants maintained betore the Paris tribunal of commerce that they had no more responsibility after they had delivered over the cake to the per son who ordered 1t. 1t was true that they recommended packer, but that expert acted under the orders of another individual, who had been selected by the plaintiff to supeIintend the operation. The tribunal decided in favor of the de- fendants. St, Louis Globe-Democrat.
