Iiilman Against Morgan. It ap-
pears that something has occurred to bring
about such an enlargement between Sem
ators Morgan and Tilman that their diff
ferences are now cutting a figure OF TO
mean proportions in the Alabama cam
paign- Senator Morgans reelection. it is
said, is not yet absolutely assured. and
since his latest change of view toward the
Nicaragua Canal enterprise It seems that
Lis enemies at home have been able to
make some Roadway against him. TIE
South CarClinian, it is reported is lending
aid and comfort to the enemy by flooding
Alabama with the numerous speeches he
lately has made against the retention of
the Philippines, for which Senator Morgan
is one Of the stoutest advocates in the Sen
ate. II seems that the foxy Tillman is do
ing this in lieu OF going to Alabama and
taking the stump against Morgan. This. It
is alleged, he had promised to do under the
guise of advocating the establishment IN
Alabama of the dispensary system which
he established in South Carolina. But it
appears that he thought it wiser to stay
away from the State and adopt the indirect
method indicated by sending his anti-Phii-
ippine speeches by the wholesale TO Ala
Dama.

1t will be interesting to observe the
manner in which the party which always
knows how to escape from its dilemmas'
will account for the course of the Admin
istration in the matter OF the Idaho bull
pen horrors. Perhaps Mr.. Hanna, or Mr.
Frye. or somebody viii make a speech and
attempt to show that martial law was
maintained, citizens kept for months in a
filthy cattle shed without being told Of the
charges against them, and dying men re-
fused water or religious consolation, in
order to show the American people how
strongly the Republican party is opposed
to trusts.

Mr.. BcyerIdEe Plays Hob.-When the
Oxnard Porto Riean Tariff bill was forced
through the House and furious storm OF
protest came from all sections and all
parties Of the country the Hen. Albert
jeremiah Beyeridge Of Indiana was quoted
by a friend as declaring that the breeze in
the HOosier State soon would blow over
when the Hoosers learned what the bill
meant. For a week this young statesman
has been quiet as a mouse on the Porto
Rican question. Various newspapers have
reported him as having made a speech en-
the subject in the Senate caucus, but as a
matter CT fact he said not word while his
brethren were expressing their views con-
fdentially to one another. His silence has
been one Of the most aggravating features
of the situation TO the peace makers No
body. it is said, has been able to force from
him a single word indicating the drift Of
the thoughts which everybody knew we're
coursing through his mind like a Johns
town flood. When the peacemakers we're
appointed by the chairman of the caucus
a week ago it was taCitly agreed that all
debate and amendatOTy proceedings 50 far
as the Republicans were concerned should
be held In allegiance as far as possible until
another caucus is held and a definite party

out saving, therefore, that the free trade
amendment offered by the young Indiana
statesman yesterday caused chagrin. if not
CONSERVATION, among the peacemakers.
The fact. too that Senator Beverage had
been with the President just a short while
before he introduced his amendment added
TO the chagrin. For a while there was
lively scurrying around by the leaders OF
both factions TO see, il possible. just what
was meant by the Indiauan'5 conduct. II is
not yet definitely known whether Mr.. Me
kinney has again changed front. though, OF
course II ne advised the Beveridge amend
ment it is fair to assume that he does nos
now stand on the Porto Rican question
where he stood when he forced the bill
through the House under the party lash.
That Mr. Beyeridgc has changed front
there is no ground tor bubble. and 1t is
considered not unlikely that the White
House influence had some hing TO do With
the sudden revolution wrought in his
judgment

To Succeed GnEe.-Persons whose
political representations usually are &C
counted first class are responsible for the
statement that, while they are en-
gagged in the pleasant but unsafe pas
time Of counting their chickens before
they are Matched, the Administration
managers are stating for next Secretary
of the Treasury former Governor Mer-
riam. Of Minnesota. who is now Director
of the Census. For many years Governor
Merriam has had Cabinet aspirations
and once or twice it is known that he
barely missed the goal through the i'm
placable hostility of the Hon Cushman
kellogg Davis. But it is known that
truce has been patched up between these
two old enemies during the reign Of Nc
Kinley, and that they are now on such
terms Of amity that their wives exchange
calls This latter circumstance is taken
as a positive indication that the Ratchet
has been buried and that the war that
has been waged between the houses OF
Nerriam and Davis for so many years at
last has been brought to a close through
the tact and fnesse of the amiable Mr..
Mckinley II this is true il is considered
probable that Merriam's aspirations for
a Cabinet portfolio at the next distribu-
ton may be gratifed provided Of course.
that his friends have any places to dis
tribute Just why Mr. Merriam is being
slated for the Treasury is not apparent.
This place usually goes to somebody
whose experience and associations pre-
vious to his entry to the field OF states
manship have been Of such a character
as the interests which watch closely the
management of the Treasury can approve.
Still, II Mr.. Merriam should prove ac-
ceptable to the Senate it is not likely that

GAME In THE SOUTH
Unusually Abundant Tins Year.
Choice Spots for the Hunter


There is more game of every kind
In the south this year than there has
been in q decade is the interesting
statement made by Charles l.. Hop
kins, Philadelphia, district passenger
agent Of the Southern railway, who
speaks not only with the personal
knowledge Of a hunter, but after
most careful and honest inquiry into
the subject before him. Continuing,
Mr.. Hopkins said
81 am confident that this will be
proven by those who go there to hunt.
Naturally, my knowledge OF the mat
ter concerns most directly the terri
tory trayersed or reached by the
Southern railway, but inasmuch as
this covers practically the entire
Southern sporting country, / can safely
say throughout the South.
For several weeks ] have been in
correspondence with gentlemen In
nearly every hamlet, town and city
along our lines, and my request has
always been for an opinion on the
conditions formed after carefully OBJ
serving the situation. / can say that in
every ease the reports tell OF an
abundance OF game nearly every cor
respondent reporting more than for
many years. and some more than they
ever knew OF before.
SOME CHOICE LOCALITIES.
"It would be hard to pick out any
particularly favored spots, yet il
seems that the Southern Virginia
country eastward OF Danville, which
includes among other places, Chase
city Clarksville, Finnywood and
Keysville. and the magnificent
stretches of Western North Carolina
around Hickory. Winston, Salem,
Taylorsville. Mooresville, Mocksville.
Statesville, Elkin, WilkesborO and
Charlotte are as we'll supplied with
game as any other section. and ara
perhaps, better than some in provid.
ing conveniences for all sportsmen
who may choose to visit them.
South Carolina. Georgia, Alabama
and Tennessee are alive with game.
and / shall be very glad to provide any
hunter with the information at my
command.
Around Chase City, I am informed.
both deer and wild turkeys are more
jndicious laws, we'll enforced. Is be-
coming apparent. The other states.
too, are taking care Of their game
with the same good results"

Special to tho Evenlng Journal.

New Castle, Oct 1S.-William Henry
Finnoy, eolored. who is confined in the
county jail here as a self-confessed
chicken thief, may have to answer the
more serious charge OF assault with in

shot in the left hand by negro as he
was crossing the Naloney farm, below

taken from Finney when he was ar
rested is Of like calibre to the ball
which has been extracted from Becks
hand, II may be exceedingly difficult
for Finney to disprove the charge
which Beck may make against him.
Whoever did the shooting was a man.

HEAVY FROST PREVAILED
Al SEAFORD MEETING
Special to the Evenlng journal,

Seaford. Oct. SIN keeping with
former meetings the Democratic rally
held here yesterday was a failure True
a large crowd of the curious cOngre-
gated In front OF the speakers stand,
for they had heard that Senator Black
burn would be pres Mt but when it
was learned that he would not be pres
ent many, in disgust departed
Then, too there were gatherings at
street corners toview the parade which
consisted OF q band wagon, few
horseback riders, and a mass of farm
wagons and coal carts bringing up the
rear
BY the time that the procession pass
ed the crowd had assumed small pro-
portions and local politicians, who had
longed for a big attendance, saw an
other frost staring them i'm the
eyes.
The performance opened with John
Biggs on the stage, and so fOrclble was
his TRADE against militarism that a
number, so IL is rumored, departed
last night for the densa swamps OF
Hog Island for fear OF being drafted
And when he opened his rapid-tire gun
on trusts many farmers in the audi
ence who had hitherto flattered them
selves with the idea that they we're
fairly prosperous, trotted their nags
wearily homeward at nightfall, slaves.
When Willard Salisbury trOtted in
view and neared the foOtlights, the
audience prayed fervently for a change
Of air Not So however, for In five min
utes, by the clock, the audience saw
this republic a trembling empire, with
Mark Hanna occupying the seat OF
honor.
That apparently jarred the audience.
for it began dropping off by two8 and
threes. BY the time that the country
was in the throes Of the rebellion
tho timid audience had fed. and when
the curtain went up on the hand
grasping act, a white frost was seen
nipning the delicate petals of the
floral decorations. Even thermometers

down-spirited during the "frost's"
