Miss Gould processes not to know who

Apparently, about every vessel in the

Rochester n. Y, Nov 12.-Dense gray
clouds and heavy rain have been caus-
ing disappointment to those who have
been looking forward for months to the

approaching the main mass. DR.. Lewis
Swift, recently of this city, writes from

When Mr.. Depew saw Senator Plat on
Thursday night he was asked by Mr.
Platt il he thought he was the choice of
the Republican party.
Mr.. Depew told Senator Platt that he
believed he was, and this could be tested
Senator Platt replied that If he could
show that the party wanted him he ought
also to be able to show that he had a
majority of the members of the legislat-
ure.
Senator Platt clso told Mr.. Depew that
if he could win he-Platt-would not raise
a hand against him.
Governor-elect Roosevelt had already
told Mr.. Depew that he would like him
for Senator. Mr. Depew nominated Col
Roosevelt for governor at Saratoga and
made speeches for him.
Mr.. Depew's friends have gone out
through the State TO get pledges from
members of the legislature.
In the meantime the supporters of Gov
ernor Black are showing pernicious ac-

Senator Plat yesterday said that under
no circumstances could Governor Black

Words do amount to a provocation in

by the robbers, who, after killing him, be-
came frightened and made their escape.
Another opinion is that Mclaughlin was

the murder theory is generally accepted,
