no political significance, and yet con-

were not infrequent yesterday. Con-
spicuous in the lobby We're eX-Presi-
dent Harrison, Senator Sherman, Sen
ator Burrows, James S. Clarkson, Con-
gresham Cannon and Joseph H. Man
ley.
Senator Burrows, when asked his
opinion in regard TO the republican
presidential candidates, said: The
woods are full of able republican candi-
dates. | only wish it was so that we
could elect fifteen presidents at one
time in order to crafty the ambition
OF everyone. The senator also said
he thought President Cleveland would
be renominatcd.
What about the recognition of the
belligerents in Cuba? Will it be done
by congress-
1T may be done, and if so it will
give the struggling Cubans some ad-
vantage. One thing believe will be
done. and that is a declaration by
congress UNFOLDING the Monroe doe
trine The Monroe doctrine has never
been acted upon by congress, but it
will not be too late"
Congressman Grow was decidedly in
favor of recognizing the struggling
Cubans as soon as possible
Senator Sherman said that he was
in the city on private business and
would attend to political matters when
he returned to Washington.
