standing along the road side Baker re-
fused to stop, but rode to house some
distance away and secured shot gun

Thinks German "HoIds Hopes"

By Gath.
United States senators are bright I
was riding up the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad with ex-senator FauliSnsF of
West Virginia, who said Of his successor
Stephen B. Elkins:
His portion of the sale of the land
and railway of the West Virginia Cen
trail company was SIS, 100000, The price OF
all the property was $1S,000,0O0 of whieh
the Davis brothers between them and r.
C. Kerens got the other half. The en-
tire cost Of the property to them WIS
about s50O0,000 They found a customer
in the Goulds, who probably pay part
ly in their securities. It VIII take moro
than two years to build through Mary
land to the West Virginia Central, as
the region Is rough and rocky
Mr.. Faulkner said that Elkins was a
remarkable man. Everything he touch
es seems to turn to mony. He sold piece
OF land in New Mexico recently for ST.
100000. He has fine library and reads
1t. Yet his father was an old-fashioned
virginian who passed on to- Ohio. then
to Missouri"
Mr.. Faulkner said he thought the
country had no enthusiasm for the re-
publican party. but was not quite will
ing to trust the democrats. He said two
democrats had the confidence of the bus
mess class-Olney and German. I queried
German, and Mr.. Faulkner said that
the big railroad magnates. like Cassatt.
absolutely trusted him, and on his ac-
count retired John X. Cowen from the
presidency of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad. II German wants the Prcsi-
Dental nomination, he can have tho
backing OF Davis and Elkins who are
kin, and Mrs. Elkins is Davis daughter
. and Germans cousin. 1aa
From the above conversation I Judge
that German holds hopes Of the Presi-
Dental nomination. particularly now that
Hill and Pattison have been defeated.

that they protest against the law and dc
