SENATOR FROM DELAWARE.
The Chances Favor the Election of
Sound Money Man.

The Chances Favor the Election of n
Sound Money Man.
A special dispatch to the Philadelphia
Press from Wilmington, Del, says:
Much doubt is expressed as to whether
the democratic legislature will elect a sill
yer man for United States Senator. 1t Is
not even believed that the silver men will
have a majority of the democratic candi-
dates. The members of the general as
sembly were named in most instances with
out regard to their opinions on the money
question. Most of the Kent men are known
to be for sound money. and the same is
true of the New Castle delegation. These
men supported the Bryan ticket on the
ground Of party regularity.
So far the only ones spoken Of for Sen
ator are Willard Salisbury of this city and
Charles B. Lore, justice of the superior
court Mr.. Lore was defeated by George
Gray for the Senate in the memorable con-
test of 1856 He was the leader of the
SALISBURY wing of the party in this county.
Willard Salisbury is the present demo-
cratic county chairman He is pro
nounced gold standard man, and did not
appear on the stump during the present
canvass.
In contest Judge Lore will probably get
nearly the entire support of the Salisbury
element down the state. While in Congress
ne made number Of speeches in favor of
silver, and his views were nearly always
opposed by Bayard and Gray.
There are so few prominent silver demo-
Gratis that the chances are in favor of q
sound money man for Senator.
Cold democrats believe that should a gold
democrat be selected from Delaware. he
would get his seat whereas the election of
a silver man would be almost sure to unite
republic ans and gold democrats in favor
OF Col. Du Pont in preference to a silver
Senator.
There was some talk today among the
politicians that Congressman Willis would
contest the election of Mr.. Handy. In
hent county all the districts showing a re-
ground Of fraud, and the board of canvass
ers Virtually took control of the returns.
II Is said that Mr.. Willis is seriously con-
Sioerlng making contest against Mr..
!1iy on the ground of these Irregular
