SOUTH cARoLrNA's sENAroRsHIP.
senator TiIlman Declines to Aid Ex-
GOV. Evans i'm His Fight.

Washington, June Ex-senator Tilman
refuses TO interfere In the coming primaries
to decide the South Carolina senatorial
contest. AS stated in these dispatches he
may have a friendly feeling for ex-Gov.
John Gary Evans, but he has informed the
ex-governor and his friends that he pro-
poses to keep hands off In the senatorial
race.
Further developments concerning John
Gary Evans recent consultation here with
Senator Tillman have leaked out. 1t is
said that the ex-governor and some of his
political friends held consultation In the
Hotel jerome, at Columbia, and the result
was not favorable to the eX-governor's SEN
atorial prospects. The consultation was
supposed 10 be strictly secret, but 1t was
evident that the ex-governor could not
consolidate the forces assembled. though
all Of those present We're supposed to be
his friends. Some of the gentlemen who
supported him in his race against the late
Senator Earle refused 10 commit them
selves to him again on the ground that
they do not believe he can win. Several
reasons were given for this belief. 1t Is
claimed that a fight among the reformers
at this time would be of no advantage to
the reform party or the state administra-
ton, which would undoubtedly be against
the ex-governor.
Another reason assigned was the fact
that many reformers who had heretofore
supported the ex-governor would not now
feel inclined to antagonze Gov. Ellerbe,
but would prefer to have his appointment
ratified. Those who took this position,
however, finally agreed to support the ex-
governor in the race, provided he could get
Senator Tillman to take an active part in
the fight and draw the lines" as OF old
The ex-governor hurried to Washington
to obtain the active support Of Senator
Tillman. The senator having declined to
come to the rescue Of his young friend, the
query among Palmetto politicians is. Will
the ex-governor friends who participated
In the Columbia caucus stand by him with
out Senator Tillman IN charge of the
fight?
