Tuesday night. Campbell. Brice, Ingalls, Sorg
Tom Johnson Kline, Thurman and Holden are
the most prominent IN the list. II IS expected
that this dinner will develop a remarkable de-
mand upon Campbell TO accept. Brice, ingalls,
Sorg johnson and Holden millionares. IT
has been suggested that they will readily assure
Mr. Campbell that his lack of war sinews VIII be
supplied.
II Is understood that in order 10 bring about
harmonious reaction in the Ohio Democracy
these millionaire Democrats will put UP fund
Out of this fund will be paid the expenses of
Campbells campaign for Governor. He Is
proud man, but the argument has been made to
him that Governor Mckinley accepted a relief
fund while he was Governor and that the Re-
publicans can make capital out Of such pro-
posed arrangement is now considered. So
late tonight there is hope that Campbell will re-
consider and that the band will play THE Camp
bells Are Coming" as the convention overture.
BRICE AND SOUND MONEY AHEAD.

Springfield Ohio. Aus. 11.-Ohio Democrats are
IN a dilemma. They are gathering here tonight
for their convention. which on Wednesday will
nominate a candidate for Governor. Despite the
boasts Of the party leaders for weeks that the
Democracy was coming to life again in Ohio. no
leader is willing to run the risk OF being elected
Governor. The nomination goes begging. Sorg
was the almost unanimous choice Of his party
until ne declined peremptorily. Then they fell
back on Campbell. who has made losing and
one successful run for the office. Campbell
pleaded poverty and suggested Colonel James
Eilbourne. OF Columbus the most available
man. Campbelrs friends took up Kibourne with
modest enthusiasm, and only yesterday 1t looked
as II he would be nominated with a hurrah.
