weakest point is the opposition he would
create among the silver men. 1t is propa-
bly, true that the ideal candidate in New
York is one who is known to be for gold,
but there is danger of provoking a thlrd
ticket if an extreme gold man is named.
Danforth fancies that here is his strength;
that while he voted for Bryan and silver,
he is known to be Il gold man.
Justice Barrett and Judge Gaynor are
two probabilities. The latter is especially
strong. He voted for Bryan, but he would
not drive away from his support any of the
gold men who are acquainted with his real
convictions on the money question JUS
tice Barrett is an able man and Croker
is said to favor him. but there is a spot in
his record that would do lots of mischief.
The impression all over the state that he
drew the infamous Ellsworth auti-neWSpa-
per law is prevalent, and that fact alone
would rouse the newspapers to take up
arms against him. He is known to be
close TO Croker.

of views as to the scope Of the commission
Investigations. in which the president par
ticipatcd quite freely. The president had
put his own views i'll writing and read
them before proceeding to a verbal dis
cussion. In this statement he said that
complaints had been directed especially at
the surgeon generals the quartcrmastcr
generals and the commissary generals de-
partmcntS of the army. and he suggested
that the conduct Of these departments
should receive especial consideration at the
hands of the commission. He wished the
commission to go TO the bottom Of the
subject in all cases and proceed with its
work without fear or favor,

that occurred. "thc commission should

bic for me to do TO see that it has"
The suggestion was also made to the
commission that the first effort should be
TO secure general information in regard
to the organization of the army ana the
time in which the work was performed.
The president suggested the name Of Ma
jOr Miles, Of the army. for the position Of
recorder of the commission.
Secretary Ayers request as made in the
letter read by the president was for a
complete inquiry into the conduct of the
war especially on the lines of the charges
published in the newspapers. He said these
Charecs had assumed such m SNituC1 that

Dr. Phineas S. Conner, of Cincinnati, all
nOunccd as the ninth member of the com
mission, was selected because of his emf
nalce as a physician. The president had
been anxious from the beginning to secure
the services of u medical man, because
the medical department of the army is
pouch involved III the charges that have
been made.
