on a close canvass it socn became appar-
ent that the support Of Gratz Brown inGc-
pendently of all others must prove a fail
ure from lack of but a few votes. The prop
oSition of a possible coalition with the sup
porters of any other candidate was long
as | now recollect: by Doctor Emil Pree-
torius. then a member of the legislature.
THE farther the discussion advanced. the
more evident it became that Mr.. Browns
election must be wholly abandoned. unless
some coalition was made with supporters
of another candidate. THAT other and avail
able candidate was General John T.. Hem
derson. though his assured adhercnts did
not. all told. exceed seven in number.

Rumors of various combinations were
rife, the situation was growing serious and

definite must be done. and that done quick
