MARYLAND DEMOCRATS
MEET TO TALK HARMONY
Senator German, Taken III,
Does Not Preside.
Those on Outs With Organization Score
City Leader Rasin-Mayor
Hayes hot Present.

BALTIMORE, July 7.TBy invitation IF
Chairman Vandiver. of the State Demo-
cratic committee. all the various lead
ers of rival factions In the party in the
city and quite a number of their lieu
tenants met at the Eutaw House this
afternoon to discuss a proposed reor-
ganization of the local machine.
The conference was planned by Senator
German, who realized that unless there
was harmony the partyscannot hope for
success this fall or next spring, when
the municipal elections take place.
The idea was to bring the malcontents
into the fold, commit them to a plan.
and thus prevent their kicking because
they were not consulted.
German Not Present.
Senator German was to have presided
over the conference. but he had severe
bilious attack yesterday, which confined
him to his bed, and was therefore unable
to be present Among the local leaders
who participated were l. Freeman Rasin.
the manager of the local Democracy; ].
Frank Morrison, John ]. Mahon. and
Hiram G. Dudley.
The three last named were on the
outs with the organization during the
past year, because they were not recog
nized, and It was in part because OF
their inactivity that the party met with
repeated defeats. Mayor Hayes was
among those invited, but did not at
tend.
1t had been heralded that this was to
be a harmony conference, but about the
only matter discussed was the time for
holding the primaries, at which the new
executives and new organization are to
be chosen.
Matters Deferred.
1t was finally decided TO defer the Sc
lection until the fall of 1908, for the
reason that the new law provides that
a voter registering must state his party
afnliation. AS the enrolment does not
take place until after the date fixed
by law for holding the primaries. 1t was
decided to postpone the reorganization.
Meanwhile a provisional committee
will have charge. This was in Difference
to Mr. Morrison. bitter opponent of the
machine. Incidentally. Morrison attack
ed Rasin's methods, which he said were
responsible for Democratic defeat. The
record Of the party. he said. was strewn
with broken pledges, and the time
had arrived to keep faith with the peo-
pie The castigation was received in
silence. Whether there will be har-
mony when the fight comes off remains
to be seen.

Chicago Spectator Be-
lieved to Have Corner
ed July Corn.
COMBINE SNAP UP ALL OFFERS
Attention of Market Centered Upon
Abnormal Condition-0ther Fields in
Sympathy With Western City's Ad-
vance-Clique In Full Charge.

NEW YORK, July What Wall Street
corner" in July corn carried the price Of
that delivery to s4A cents a bushel in
the Chicago market today. This was a
jump of u. cents bushel since Thurs
day.
1t was cents over yesterdays top
price for July wheat in Chicago. and
was the highest price corn has reached
in Chicago since 1898. The attention of
the grain markets of the country was
naturally centered upon the abnormal
condition which the Harris-Gates party
has brought about. The grain markets
we're strong in sympathy with the Chi
cago advances
The Washington times., 1902-07-08
MAY Have Control.

Everything at this moment indicates
that the Harris-Gates people control the
Chicago July corn situation. They have
secured the supplies OF cash corn as fast
as they appeared and have taken care of
them. One story told in this city To-
day regarding the operations of the
clique was to the effect that 1t has
taken care OF great deal of corn ty
shipping 1t to Europe.
Corn has been delivered to the Harris
Gates people on contracts maturing prior
TO July, and as fast as they received
the spot Sor cash corn they have dis
posed of II to exporters, much of ii
being disposed of at prices under the
then ruling price for the July future.
In some cases the clique understood
to have shipped corn abroad at cents
q bushel under the price paid for 1t. In
this way the actual corn has been en-
tirely eliminated from the market.
Knows Little of It.
Charles G. Gates. the son of John W.
Gates, and one of the special partners
in the firm OF Harris, Gates G. Co.. re
turned TO Wall Street today from Chit
cago. Mr. Gates was seen at the ofIice
of his firm in Wall Street, and when
questioned about the deal replied:
II don't know much about 1t. / am
not a grain man. / went to Chicago to
attend the races there. l guess all
there is TO II is that he who sells what
he has not got must pay for IT.
81 understand. though. that they have
got the Chicago grain hospitals pretty
busy sorting out corn OF poor grade so
that 1t will grade No. 2, which is the
contract grade.
"Mr. Scotten is the practical grain ex-
pert of the firm. My father. John W.
Gates. has nothing to do with 1t. /
don't know whether there has been any
proposition for a settlement. Perhaps
they think they can deliver the goods. :"
