a wAsnrNeroN correspondent

A WASHINGTON correspondent dis
covered that several OF the Ohio dele
gates are not loyal to Mckinley. He
says that some OF them will forsake
him at the first opportunity; that
there is base treachery in the ranks of
the McKinleyites and that in all prob
ability Harrison will be the gamer by
the final break in the Mckinley col
nmn. This is interesting. In the first
place 1t reminds the country Of the
conduct OF the Ohio delegations in the
past. 1t recalls the experience Of John
Sherman when Garfield, who went TO
The National Convention as his spokes-
man, became the candidate. II brings
up memories which Sherman revived
by the publication OF his book and,
most interesting Of all, it gives rise to
the question: ''Will Harrison re-enter
politics and be candidate for nomina-
ton ut ST. LOUISE" Nothing would be
more la keeping with Harrison's rec
ord ms a politician than his return to
politics and his success in the Nation
al Convention. He Ii a sly bride
groom and as quiet and strategic In
politics as in love. What surprise
Ct would be to the political prophets to
lind thai the Ohio Napoleon had been

Resolved, that we hail with delight
the efforts of the masses of the Demo

many of our sister states to emancipate
themselves from the domination of the
Republican financial policy, which has
been the cause Of so much distress. and

the selection on behalf of that party, in

standing in the way of this course is the

St Louis, June I6.-Auspiciously and
serenely, beneath a sky across whose
arched dome not a cloud fioated, the
chieftains of the republican party, from
the pineries of Maine to the orange
groves of California, from the ever
glades of Florida to the placid waters of
Puget Sound, met in council today, and,
in she presence of about 5000 specta-
tors, entered upon the work of selecting
candidates and enunciating policies for
the campaign of 500. The first session
of the republican national committee
was brief and formal
Chairman Carter. of the national com
mittee, dropped the gavel At 1870, and
sixty minutes later an adjournment was
taken until 10 o'clock tomorrow. There
was not a jar to mar the proceedings;
there were no sensational incidents to
arouse, nor any demonstrations to thrill
the vast concourse of people.
The temporary chairman, c. w. Fair
banks of Indianapolis, delivered his ad
dress, a strong, forcible statement in ar
raignment of the present administration
and in refinement of the issues; the
committee selections for the various
delegations were announced-that was

to Mckinley which would loose bottled
up enthusiasm for the little Napoleon"
which has had no fight to uncork it, or
who imagined thar, perhaps, some of the
great leaders or orators of the party
would be called to the platform to fire
their imaginations or quicken their
pulses, were disappointed. II was pure
ly a formal session.
