SEYMORE AND MURPHY.
Likely to BE the Opposing Candidates
In New Jersey.
Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star.

Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star
CAPE MAY, n. J.. July 16 1901.
Since vacation days have come the po-
litical wiseacres of New Jersey are getting
together and talking over the guberna-
torial campaign which will be inaug,lrated
In September, when the nominating con-
ventions take place.
The fight will be made this fall between
the republicans and democrats on state
issues. National issues will not be con-
sidered, for there are no representatives
to be elected, and the legislature will have
no United States senators to choose Be-
sides the governor. there will be a Gull house
of assembly of sixty members to choose
and one-third of state senate or seven
members of that body.
The democratic mayor of Newark, James
NJ. seymore, will prosbably be the demo-
cratic nominee for governor, and if he is
nominated, his reputation as a business
man and his having been thrice mayor of
Newark VIII go great way toward win
ming democrat votes from the conserva-
tive element throughout the state There
is some talk that BENJAMIN F. Lee who
was for twenty-five years clerk of the SUI
preme court, may be the nominee. On the
republican side it has all along been ex-
pected that Franklin Murphy, who has
been state republican chairman for sew
eral years, and who was one of President
Mckinley commissioners to the Paris ex-
Governor voorhees, was elected three
years ago by small majority of less than
o,Ooo and he won against a man HON
even the democrats did not consider one of
their strongest men. Therefore the out
come of the contest will depend entirely
upon the nominee and upon the turns taken
In the pleas to the people for the support
of these nominees.
There are a few more than a Thousand
voting precincts IN the state, and If each
precinct turns over three votes for the
democratic nominee that would elect
the man and change the whole political
complexion of the state. In the ecnate
there is already a hold-over majority CT
the republicans, and there is no possible
chance for the democrats to control that
body for at least two years, even should
they elect every senator this autumn.
Many Of the democratic state leaders are
indorsing the recent action of the Ohio
democrats in turning DOWN the Bryan
Ideas. Both New Jersey democratic lep-
resentatives, Allan L. McDermott and
Joshua S. Salmon, have issued st ata,n nts
approving the rundown.

CRISIS POSSIBLE IN PEkIN
GREAT BRIr&1S AND RUSSIA DIFFER
OVER INDEMNITY PLAN.
No Agreement Seems Probable Until
Thi. consfover-y i.
sc Settled.

The ministers, of The powers at Pekin
now freely ADMIT that the prospect of a
conclusion of the negotiations is growing
darker. The situation is most serious, as
the deadlock has continued for more than
a month. The meeting arranged for today
was postponed because it was apparent
that the proceedings would be fruitless.
1t was at the meeting Of July IL that the
ministers reached something in the nature
or an agreement as to the indemnity, put
almost Immediately a radical dlference
developed e>tween Great Britain and Rus
STA as to the details of the plan Of pay
ment. All the ministers were IN accord
with the scheme early in June, subject TO
the approval of their governments, but
Great Britain disapproved the arrange
ment on the ground that 1t did not ade-
auately protect her commercial interests
Agreement Depends on Concessions.
The neutral ministers assert that either
Great Britain or Russia must make ma
terial concessions before a conclusion or
the agreement Is possible. Meanwhile the
committees Of the ministers are working
upon comparatively unimportant details,
sucn as improvements in navigation, put
II the financial question was settled the
negotiations could be closed in day.
LII Hung Chang keeps sending strenuous
requests to the ministers of the powers to
present a complete plan. He represents
that China is willing to accept any reason
able terms, and is chiefly anxious to know
definitely what the powers require so that
she may begin compliance with the terms.
The ministers regard newspaper accusa-
tons of procrastination on their part as
exceedingly unjust The governments. and
not the ministers, are RESP onsible, the min
listers say, for the deadlock.
