TOSERVE rs CRAIRMdN.

MIR. Apsley Foresladowed the Defeat OF the
Veteran Democratic Leaders in the Next
Presidential Contest-He Predicts tho
Election of Mr.. Morton of New York by
Majority of More Than One Hundred
Thousand.
Washington, March 5.-These officers
We're elected at the meeting of the re-
publican congressional campaign COM
mittee tonight to serve for the en-
suing two years:
J. w. Babcock, Wisconsin, chairman:
L. D, Apsley, Massachusetts, vice chair
man; William B. Thompson, Michigan,
treasurer; executive committee, J. H.
Hull. Iowa; Joseph Cannon, Illinois; J.
S. Sherman, New York; Joseph Ever
street, David Mercer, Nebraska, and
Senator's Pritchard, North Carolina;
Pettigrew, South Dakota, and Mitchell,
Oregon
representative Aplsley nominated Mr..
Babcock for his former Office Of chair
man. In doing so he spoke Of the
ability displayed by Mr. Babcock in the
last campaign and asserted that in a
large proportion of the congressional
districts carried by the republicans the
result was due to Mr.. Babcock's clever
work
Mr.. Hull of Iowa, in nominating Mr..
Apsley to succeed himself as vice chair
man was equally complimentary. He
assured the committee that Mr.. APPS
ley had displayed excellent ability and
that he was entitled to share with Mr..
Babcock the honors of the campaign
adding that during his four years con-
nection with the committee the duties
entrusted these officers had never been
more satisfactorily performed
Mr.. Apsley in reply referred to the
predictions made by him during the
progress of the last campaign. He
showed that from the reports received
by the committee he was enabled INTEL
ligently to foreshadow the defeat OF
such veteran democratic leaders as
Holman of Indiana, Wilson Of West
Virginia, Bland of Missouri and Sprin-
ger Of Illinois, and also to indicate the
election of Mr.. Morton in New York by
a majority of more than 100000.
Mr.. Babcock created nerriment after
endorsing all that Mr.. Hull had said OF
his colleague by declaring that the
best thing about Apsley is that the
latch-string Of his pocketbook always
hangs out"
I Mr.. Hooker then renominated Mr..
Thompson for treasurer, and said he
had creditabIy discharged his duties.
Messrs. Babcock and Apsley were
then instructed to select an executive
committee, with the result as above an
nounced, Mr.. Hull of Iowa succeeding
Senator Manderson of Nebraska as
chairman
Before the meeting adjourned Mr..
Apsley again addressed his committee
associates, saying the political outlook
promised an overwhelming republican
victory next autumn. He predicted as
result of those elections a republican
house and senate and executive.
