They Will Try to Throw the Gov.
ernOrship to the south.
The strength of the various candidates for
Governor has been pretty well canvassed
by the friends of the gentlemen who aspire
for this high office. but as yet they are all
guessing as to the result. There is a strong
effort making by delegates and politicians
from about Huntington to throw the guber-
Material nomination as far south as possible,
in order TO make the locality argument more
forcible in presenting the name of Leopold
Levy as a candidate to oppose that of +. j.
ScholZ, the present Treasurer. Mr.. Scholz
Is the only one Of the present Republican
State officers who is TO have opposition in
the convention. Ii is taken for granted, as
far as the other offices are concerned, that
the old policy of the party to allow State
officers second term should be followed
this year. In the case of Treasurer, how
ever. Ar. Levy claims the right to make the
race this year. He was a candidate against
Mr.. Scholz two years ago and was defeated
for the nomination.
Recognizing the fact that this acknowl-
edged policy of the party will be Of great
weight in the convention, the delegates who
are for Levy will throw their strength to
southern candidate for Governor. They would
prefer Posey for the reason that he comes
from Evansville, the home of Treasurer
Scholz. With Posey nominated Ii would be
a great deal easier to defeat Scholz. If they
see that Posey is not strong then John l..
Griffiths may profit by this peculiar sltua-
ton. The fight will be made strong against
Griffin and DOxey.

Hanna Keeping the Wires Hot-Where
tee Meetings Are to BE Held.

There was a sudden rush OF delegates to
Indianapolis last night after the municipal
elections were over, and the jam about the
hotels toward midnight became tremendous.
The advance guard had been holding down
the floors OF the lobbies since Saturday, but
yesterday morning the delegates themselves
began to arrive, and as they came in there
was noted a surprising development of senti-
ment against instructions. They were strong
Mckinley men for the most part. but they
could see no necessity for instructions. They
believe General Grosvenor's figures and un-
derstand that Mckinley is practically nomi-
mated now. They cannot, therefore. see any
advantage TO be gained for him by instruc-
tions, but they can see that Ii would be of
some advantage to certain bosses who have
promised to deliver the goods to Mr.. Han
ma. of Cleveland, neatly tied up in labeled
packages.
II have talked with no less than sixty dele
gates from various parts of the State,' said
a politician of considerable prominence in
southern Indiana late last night. "and II
is my belief that they will not instruct 1
am taking no interest in the matter myself,
further than that of curiosity. and discover
that most of the delegates are feeling the
same way. They don't seem TO think II
cuts much figure with Mckinley or anybody
else, except few people who want to be
in line for the postofices and things. The
most definite result they can see i'm 1t is
a lot Of bad feeling engendered in the party
to no purpose. This has already been the
result in Illinois. and they do not want a
similar state of affairs here. You know We
expect everybody 10 vote for and work for
Mckinley after he is nominated, and the
delegates / have talked to seem to believe
II is better TO leave all Republicans in shape
to do this heartily
Senator Charles Shiveley, OF Wayne
county. said that he believed the effort for
instructions was a mistaken idea, and one
that would be discarded by the delegates
when they had studied the matter carefully
as they undoubtedly would before the time
came TO cast their ballots for or against
instructing. Senator Shiveley seems to ex-
press the opinion of the majority of the
prominent Republicans. Said another: I'VE
cannot afford to handicap such men as I'm

Brownlee and Gen. Wallace by deciding for

MR. GOwDY's LETTERS.
A Couple of Confidential Missives
shown About the DenisOn.

couple of confidential letters from
Chairman Gowdy were shown about the
Denison last evening, and caused considera-
BILE comment. They were written to friends
of his in a northern district, and asked
these gentlemen to see 10 1t that one man,
whom the chairman named, be put on the
committee on resolutions, and another,
whom he likewise named, be put on the
committee on rules from this particular dis
trict Apparently such letter had been
sent TO at least one man i'm each county in
the district and IL was generally supposed
that he had selected men for these places
in all the districts. While the men who re-
ceived the two letters mentioned were very
good friends of the chairman. they stated
that they do not believe this was a matter
he should seek to control. His anxiety on
the subject of the resolutions committee is
taken to be on account of the patronage and
apportionment planks in the platform and
the proposed resolution Of instructions.

The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1896-05-06

Indianapolis News. May 5.
1t does not appear that the representatives
of the party here to-day are i'm favor Of
instructing the delegates at large TO vote for
Mckinley. The sentiment against any ac-.
ton on the presidential question by the del
egates has been a surprise to good many
persons who had been led to believe that
everybody who came to attend the conyen-
ton would be shouting for instructions i'm
mediate.y upon arrival. The general i'm
preston seems to be that Mckinley will be
the nominee for President. but many rep
resentatives of the party who are most i'm
favor Of his nomination are not In favor of
instructions. They believe it will be better
policy for the party in Indiana to keep si-
lent. They say there is no doubt in the
world that the delegates to the convention
from Indiana will al vote for Mckinley SO
long as there seems to be probability for
his nominations; and they believe it will
be bad policy to force through Instructions
under circumstances that will leave a good
many members OF the party in bad humor.
Ine Mckinney people are intimating that
IL the Harrison stalwarts'' press the fight
against instructions too far, the slate for
delegates at large may be broken. For
several days Ii has been pretty well UNDER
stood that the delegates at large would be
Richard w. Thompson. Charles w. Fair
banks, Lew Wallace and Hiram Brownlee
AT least two of these men are satisfactory
to the Harrison stalwarts." IF this con-
test over the question of instruction gets
too warm" said one of the Mckinley man
ayers to-day. I'VE shall drop at least two

ing earnestly for place on the delegation
and his friends believe he will make a strong
race. He is for Mckinley and is for instruc-
tions. The Mckinley managers say positive
ly that the delegates at large will not be
elected by acclamation. 1t Is probable. they
believe. that the four will be elected on one
ballot, each county voting for four candi-
dates at one time.

How Ii Looks to Another Paper.
Indianapolis Sun. Nav ).

Indianapolis Sun. May 5.
There is a growing feeling, as the dele
gates arrive, that ii is not the desire to in
truct the delegates to the national conven-
ton for Mckinley. This seems to be the dis
position of even those delegates who are out
and-out Mckinley men. They do not favor
the idea of being bound and gagged. Those
who have been watching the fight as it
progresses think that tncse who have so val
iantly been fighting for instructions are all
like yer Uncle J. Gowdv-dead on the trail
OF an office in case Mr. Mckinley should
land i'm the presidential cathedra 1t
further appears that these fellows formed
the advance guard of the delegations from
the various counties and that they have
been making favorable statements regarding
instructions which the delegations as a
whole will not bear out. But there's no tell-
ing what Will be done. Mr. Gowdy is tug
ging with all his might at the strings of in
struction. Thus far this year he has won
every fight he has been In. 'Will he win in
