MISTAKE or THE CENTURY
MCCOrkIe CharacferIzeS Democratic
Hos iIIify TO Expansion.

Parkersburg. w. Va, Sept. S.-For-
mer Governor MacCorkIe, who is one
of the leading democratic candidates
for governor, was here yesterday. In
an interview he asserted that if the
democrats declared against expansion
they would make the mistake of the
century. The ex-governor said that
the democratic state organization
headed by the Hon. John t. McGraw
was the only organization now in the
state, which would indicate that the
organization headed by the Chiftons
and to which the ex-governor formerly
belonged had disbanded. When asked
whether he believed Bryan would be
nominated in 1900 he said: This is
my busy morning"
During the last campaign Governor
MacCorkle was considered a gold
democrat, although he professed to
train with the supporters of the
Chicago platform.

CREDENTIALS AMBITION.
He Would Like to Be Elected Gov
e-nor and Then Senator.

Topeka, Sept. S.-John w. Brieden-
thai gave out a statement few days
ago that he was in favor Of the fusion
lists Nominating their sualte and sena-
torial nominees by direct vote. In this
way, he says, the people would make
the selections, instead of the polite
fans and wire-pullers. If this scheme
is adopted next year, Breidenthal will
nlct be candidate for governor, but
fer United States senator. He has an
idea thai he is more popular with the
masses than any other leader in his
party, and that he can win the sena-
tCTship nomination with ease under
the direct vote scheme. But the
are that the plan will not be
adopted. In this event Breidenthal
will de a candidate for governor, and
later will Shy his caster into the sena-
torial arena in case the fusionists have
a majority of the legislature.

The Condemnation Of DreyfuS Is
Conceded
BY HIS FRIENDS And COUNSEL
n LabOrI Says That fhe Verdict
Judgment VIII Be Rendered This
Afternoon = Elaborate Military
/ Preparations Have Been Made TO
meet Any Emergency.

Rennes, Sept. S.-That Captain Drey-
fus will be condemned is the almost
universal opinion heard in Rennes TO-
night. Hitherto there had always
been divergence, but now both
camps, the Dreyfusards and the anti
Dreyfusards, seem unanimous in the
conviction that the verdict will go
against him. Upon just what this is
based and the precise reason fer the
conclusion, are a mystery, but there
is no Disgusting the fact that from NJ.
Labor down to the numerous Drey-
fusards who crowd the hotels and
cafes and who last night were still
hopeful that Dreyfus would be saved,
all now agree that his last chance is
gone.
The one source of hope is in Labori
himself, who said this evening to the
correspondent of the Associated
Press: I'VE fear that Captain Drey-
fus will be condemned, but we do not
intend to throw up the sponge We
shall go on fighting for him. NJ
Jaures, the socialist leader, and other
prominent Dreyfusards expressed a
similar opinion
Excitement is at fever heat and
nothing is discussed but the verdict of
tomorrow. The military precautions
are of the most elaborate character
and no attempt at disorder is likely to
have the slightest success Orders
have been issued to repress the first
symptom of trouble with an iron hand
A small anti-semitic meeting was
held here this evening and the COM
plete calm that attended it is an indi-
cation of quiet day tomorrow. A
strong force of gen d'armes guarded
the approaches to the building where
the meeting was held, and their or
derss were to arrest the first man who
raised a sseditious cry Nothing, how
ever, occurred Indeed, the inhabi-
tants of the town seem Indifferent and |
the neighborhood of the Lycee and the |
prison is deserted, save for a few gen |
d'armes.
The news of the publication of |
Count Won Buelow's speech in the |
reichsanzeger reaches Rennes today |
and is accorded to be very important |
on the verdict, which, in some quar-
ters, it is thought, will be regarded as |
a slight by Germany if it be a con-
demnation, as being tantamount to a
public refusal to take the word of EN-
peror William, as his minister is mere
ly his mouthpiece.
According to the latest report, the
verdict may be delivered between 8
and 4 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, the
court adjourning after NJ. Demange's
speech until o'clock. There is some
criticism of NJ. Labori's decision not
to speak, the friends of NJ. Demange
thinking it his object to escape his
share of the responsibility in the
event of a verdict CT condemnation.
M. Demange having once seen Dreyfus
condemned under his advocacy, would
naturally like NJ. LaboIi to share the
criticism this time, especially as M.
Labori has assumed such a prominent
part in the proceedings.

ally.
"He was lately retired from all busi-
ness, except to act as supervisor of
his properties. Few men are such per-
sistent workers. His usual work day
was from O'clock In the morning until
5 O'Clock in the afternoon. He knew
every detail OF all his properties; every
detail OF all the charitable institutions
which ne supported. There were never
any deficiencies in the after. When Mr..
Vanderbilt heard OF one he paid II out
OF his own pocket.
There existed n perfect attachment
by the officials and employees OF the

bilt. When they heard this morning
that ne was dead some OF the older men
actually shed tears.
