Harrison for. second place.

Washington, April S. - Democratic
leaders here nave bean studying over the
significance of the mayoralty elections
in Chicago, St. Louis and Cleveland, so
far as national issues are concerned.
Reorganization of the party is the inev-
table topic whenever democrats Of
prominence are together. and every
event is scanned to determine its effect
IN 1904. They have come to the conclu-
sion that after eight years of President
Me hinley's popular administration the
people. thru natural perverseness, will
be ready for change, provided Bryan
ism is publicly defeated inside the DEM
ccratic party.
For this reason the talk among the
party leaders has been as to whether
Rolla Wells, Tom johnson or Carter H.
Harrison would make the best showing
for a place on the national ticket. Tom
Johnson has not always beer popular in
his own party. and hence it is that he is
generally eliminated from the consider
alton. Rolla Wells was openly opposed
ry the Bryan followers in ST. Louis, and
iienee ii is said he would be a weak can
didate, as his nomination for a place on
the national ticket would be resented
BY the Bryan men to such an extent
as 10 prevent an election.
Carter Harrison is generally said to
be the most likely man of the three. He
has, they say, record OF pronounced
loyalty to the party standards, Willie at
Kansas City he was in the thick of the
light against radical silver plank.
The leaders who have been studying
the situation say that Harrison must be
winner in a national convention, as he
Is not the kind of a man to keep his
name before ths people if he should go
cut of office in the spring of 1903, where

rived over the Northwestern in the
morning. The second section was ex-
pected to arrive over the Santa Fe at I
o'clock last night, but did not get in
until 1850.
The incoming soldiers were met at the
station by many relatives and friends
who had not seen them since the regl-
ment left this city more than two years
ago for service in the Philippines. OF
the 1900 men who accompanied Col.
Cornelius Gardiner when the regiment
left Fort Sheridan, only twenty y-six Off
GERS and 73S men returned. Three hun
dred had died of fever or had been
killed In the sixty seven fights and
skirmishes in which the regiment en-
gagged. Twenty officers and $50 non
commissioned officers remained in the
Philippines. while many prvates also
accepted positions in the islands. II was
the absence of all these that made the
home coming of the men last night pa
thetic rather than joyful.
