While there never has been moment
that the situation justified the supporters
OF Col. Roosevelt in giving odds. he was
undoubtedly stronger Immediately after
the adjournment of the Saratoga con
vention than he has been at any time
since; and impartial observers admit that
he has been growing weaker and weaker
as a candidate every day. BY election
cay 1t is not altogether improbable that
Col. Roosevelt's canvas will collapse ut
teriy. There are signs Of 1t in the air to-
day.
Senator Platt has his gaze fixed upon
the legislative contests. Aside from the
election of successor to Senator Muir

Mr.. Platt and his organization to retain

The DEMOCRATS sand Silver Republicans
have entered into a fusion out In Idaho
and the chaReesfare that Senator George
l.. Shoup viii retire to private life upon
the expiration ofhis term. Idaho has fol-
lowed in the footsteps of Wyoming. Col
orado, Montana and Utah and adopted an
amendment to her constitution granting
universal suffrage. The change will in
crease the vote OF the State, It is said. by
about 500 Senator Shoup is personally
very popular with the opposite sex, but
the vast majority of them In Idaho, It is
believed, will vote the fusion ticket There
may be a chance for former Senator Fred
bois las always been a consistent friend
of silver and he supported Bryan on that
issue in 1886. He is a Yale graduate and
man Of marked ability.
Thomas Henry Carter. of Montana, Is
another Northwestern senator who will
probably share the same fate as Senator
Shoup at the expiration OF his term Mr..
Carter has endeavored to keep in with
the Republican party and at the same
time convince the people of Montana that
he was a loyal friend of silver. The at
tempt has not been very successful AS
might have been expected. he is suspected
by TIE Administration at Washington and
distrusted by the people of Montana. Mr..
Carter, however, is a man of fertile re-
sources. In his early days he was a
lightning rod agent which is generally
conceded to be a pretty good schooling
for sharpening ones wits. He will need
all of his talent to save himself from
defeat.

The Republicans in Indiana are rejoic-
ing over the fact that the Populists of
that State have declined TO fuse with the
Democrats. and have put up separate
ticker. They argue from this that they
will have no difficulty in carrying the
State and electing a successor to Sena-
tor Turpie. There is some talk that for
mer President Harrison may be candi-

have majority in the legislature to be

A RumOr that Another War Ship Had

An illustration of the intense interest
that is still felt in the Spanish imbroglio
was the reception of a rumor from the

effect that another American battle ship
had been destroyed by Spanish treachery
In an incredibly short time the rumor got
noised abroad and was discussed in many
quarters in the city. The Journal telephone

GLADSTONE'S WILL
HAS BEEN PROBATED
It Is Remarkable Document Writ
ten by the Grand Old Man in
a Memorandum Rook

LONDON, Sept. 5.-The will of the late
Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone has been
probated. 1t shows that his personal
estate is valued at ESQ, 506.
Mr.. Gladstone's will was written by
himself In an ordinary memorandum
book. 1t is a document of about 1000
words and is a remarkable specimen of
penmanship. The second clause of the
Will has reference to the funeral arrange
ments, and says:
Commencing myself to the infinite
mercies of God In the incarnate Son as
my only and sufficient hope, 1 leave the
particulars of my burial to my executors,
specifying only that they be very simple
and private, unless there be. conclusive
reasons to the contrary. And desire to
be buried where my wife may also lie.
On no account shall a laudatory inscrip-
ton be placed over me-"
After appointing his sons as executors.
the will charges the future possessor of
Hawarden to remember that, as the head
of the family, it will be his duty to extend
good offices to other members thereof, ac-
cording to his ability and their manifest
needs and merits. The rest of the docu-
ment leaves souvenirs to servants and be-
queaths to his grandson. William, as
heirlooms all patents of crown offices held
by the testator and books and prints pre-
scented to him by the Queen, letters from
the Queen, etc.
The will bears date November 26, 1896.
