TEN EYCK nESITATES.


Philadelphia, Aug. 12.-Unless there
II q marked improvement In Ten Eyck's
condition his father will not permit him
to start In the regatta. Ten Eyck says
the four days Of seasickness on the trip
from England and the many receptions
and other social functions here nave put
the young champion little out OF form.
He Is now tribe lighter than when he
rowed at Henley last month. His hands
are also somewhat sore. Ten Eyck
recognizes the fact that Whitehead,
Juvenal, Thompson, Mcguire and Al
ward are hard nuts to crack. and says 1t
would be cruel for an 1S-year-old boy to
60 against these fast men when he Is not
in proper shape. The Henley champion
has had very little practice since bis ar
rival from England. but is now working
hard to get into form. His father, who
is training him, hopes to have him In
shape I'm time. but thinks II is doubtful
1t will be great disappointment Ia

able to start Several OF the crack SOUL
lers are confident that they can defeat

THE COFFEE WAR.

Profits of the ROasters.

NEW YORK, Jan. 5.-The Mail and Ex-
press says: when the sugar people first
went into the coffee fight it was said in
Wall street to-day, there was Il difference
of 3 TO cents between green and roasted
coffees, and in this was the profit of the
roasters. Since the green coffee has gone
down cents, while the margin for profit
on roasted coffee is about half to l cent
1t is said in Wall street that this profit
will be wiped out before the week is over

visible supply of coffee in the world on Jan.
l is 4OOO,OOJ, an increase of 400 bags since
july j. This increase is in spite of the fact
that the trade has bought heavily in Eu-
rope and here owing to the novelty of the
price compared with the last six or seven
years. The supply is still on the increase,
and Rio and Santos have a stock of 1.000,-
10 bags unsold. AS holders find it more
difficult to sell than at the beginning of
the crop, a great many sensational cables
are being sent forward to stimulate the

source, so long as it tends to help to ad-
vance prices"

A DEMOCRATIC BAIT.
Offers to Friends of Minor Candidates
for Senator.

The Democrats will hold caucuses this
evening and go through the motions just as
if they had votes enough to elect some
body. John r. East, of Bloomington and
DR.. f. G.. Thornton, of Brazil are spoken
of as candidates for the complimentary vote
for speaker. OF the two East will probably
win the empty honor. unless the minority
should have an unexpected accession of
good sense and vote for Allen Swope of
Seymour, who was quiet conservative
and altogether respectable member of the
last House. The Democrats will probably
not hold their joint caucus on the senatorial
question until the night before the election,
If they hold one at all. They will prob
ably cast their vote for Voorhees, as neither
Matthews nor Shanklin will make a fight
for the honor.
The leaders of the Democratic forces are
sending occasional ambassadors to the man
ayers of the senatorial interests of minor
Republican candidates with assurances
that a deal can be fixed up to elect one or
the other of them if he can get mis- follow
ers to bolt the Republican caucus. 1t is
hardly necessary to say that no attention
has been paid TO these offers. None of the
Republican members entertains any other
idea than that the senatorship will be
finally settled within the Republican eau
Gus.

Vests Chances Good.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Jan. 5.-To-
night almost the entire membership of the
Thirty-ninth General Assembly, which as
sembles here at noon tomorrow. are in the
city. The most important action TO be TAX
en- at this session will be the selection of
a successor TO Senator CT. G.. Vest, whose
term is about to expire. The senator is
here. having came from Washington yes
terday. He has established headquarters
and is making a strong fight for re-elec-
ton. with the chances greatly in his favor
as the assembly is Democratic joint
ballot. There seems to be considerable op-
position TO Vest on the part of the Popu-
list members. whose strength. combined
with that of the Republicans and any dis
affected Democrats there might be, would
be sufficient to defeat the senator. Governor
Stone is spoken of favorably by some of
the Populst members and would make a
strong man, but he is said to have pledged
his support to Vest and would therefore
not let his name be used. Samuel b. Cook,
chairman of the Democratic state commit
tee is looked upon as available. as he is
popular with Stone and his followers and
accountable to the POpuliStS.
