WASHINGTON LETTER.
ESPECIAL CORRESPONDENTS OF THE MoNIToE
Washington, Oct. 21, 1895.

Wdshin qton, Oct. 2I, 1895.
The Republican National Commit
tee will shortly decide the time and
place for holding the next National
Convention. Chairman Carter, who
was in Washington to-day, says he
has asked the opinion of every mem
Der of the Committee by letter, and
has within the last few days had per-
sonal conferences with a number of
them. 1t is an inviolable rule that
the committee meeting which decides
the time and place for the convention
must be held six months previous to
the date upon which the convention
meets. "a There is a difference of opin-
ion, both in and out ofthe committee,
as to whether the convention should
be as early as May or whether it
should be held after the democratic
convention. In other words, wheth-
er the presidential campaign shall be
a long or a short one. The decision
lies entirely with the National Com
mittee, although the action of its
members will, of course, be largely
Influenced by the opinion of other
leading republicans. Should major
ity of the committee indicate their
preference for holding the conven-
ton in May, the committee meeting
will have to be held sometime next
month.
Senator Cullom of Illinois, was so
much interested in the Waller case
that he came to Washington with the
Chicago colored lawyer who brought
a petition signed by leading citizens
of that city, asking Mr.. Cleveland to
secure the liberation of Ex-Consul
Waller, now unjustly confined in
French prison. Mr.. Cullom escorted
the lawyer to the White House and
introduced him to Mr.. Cleveland, who
referred them to Secretary Olney,
who, he said, was conducting the dip
lomatic negotiations. Mrs. Waller,
wife of the imprisoned Ex-Consul,
and her children, arrived in Washing
ton recently and will remain until she
finds out whether the administration
really intends to do anything for her
husband. She speaks hopefully; she
is afraid to speak in any othey way,
less it might make the administration
still slower, but what she thinks is an
other matter.
The report that the President and
Vice President are not on speaking
terms, which was started during the
last session of Congress, was revived
when the announcement was made
that Mr.. Stevenson, who has been in
doing the exposition since
the middle of last week, would start
for his Illinois home to-day, at about
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1895-10-28

his cabinet left Washington :. for. At
lanta. Whether the two officials are
on speaking terms is more than I can
positively say-they probably are
when they can't help themselves
but this is not the first time, by sew
eral, that Mr.. Stevenson has by his
actions made it. plain that he did not
wish to meet Mr.. Cleveland in public,
and it is perfectly we'll known in
| Washington that neither of the men
likes the other, and that no man in
public life has had less influence with
| SON. 1t has always been understood
that this question of influence was at
the bottom of the trouble between the
two men. Early in the administra-
ton Mr.. Stevenson was, it is said,
given to understand that his recon-
mendation of any man for Office was
sufficient to keep the applicant out
in the cold, and matters were not i'm
proved when Mr.. Stevenson refused
to ride rough shod over the rules and
lands command, when the extra ses-
sion was considering the silver repeal
bill.
Col. John S, Mosby, who was one
of the first prominent ExConfeder
ates to become a republican, is in
Washington again after a long absence
he was appointed U. S. consul to
China by President Grant and retain
ed the position for many years. AL
though not young man, his talk in
dicates that he has half a mind to go
into Virginia politics. He said Of ma
tional politics: "The next campaign
will show some remarkable changes
in the political sentiment of the diff
ferent sections, and if the republicans
would give the second place on their
ticket to an ex-Confederate they
would make some inroads into
the South that would be surprising. I
should like to see Gen. James A.
Walker Of Virginia, nominated for
Vice President, and I believe if it is
done, the republicans would carry
Virginia and several other Southern
states.'' Gen. Mosby expressed the
belief that Gen. Walker would sue
coed the late Gen Ma hone as leader
of the Virginia republicans.
The German ring has succeeded in
raising corruption fund far beyond
it's expectations in amount, and its
members are now Boosting of their
ability to buy votes enough to carry
Maryland next month. According to
a published report, one Baltimore
democrat openly said: eve have
now money enough to buy up the
whole republican arty in Maryland
and we are going to win" The re-
publican leaders Of the state are wide
awake. They know the German ring
has plenty of money, and that promi
nent colored republicans have been
corruptly approached, and they are
determined either to stop the bribery
or to send some of the bribed and the
bribers to prison, if it can be done,
and they are satisfied that it can.
