Been Offered Him Yet.
[BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE }

WATERFOWL, n. Y. Aug. H.-John w. Carlisle
chairman Of the executive committee of the Demo-
cratic State Committee. asked to-day whether
the craftsmanship of the Democratic State Com
mittee had been offered him by former Senator
David b. Hill. He said it had not been offered by
Mr.. Hill, and should IL be he did know
whether he would accept. He regarded the talk
about 1t as simply the gossip of politicians who
were at Saratoga, and said the chairman of the
State committee would not be selected until the
meeting of the committee.
Close friends of MIR. Carlisle in politics think he
will be offered the place for his able work in the
last campaign and that he will accept and make
the effort of his life to bring about harmony in
Democratic ranks and put his party in line for the
Presidential campaign next year.

States to leave Washington and take part in the
elections.
When, as soon after November as might be
found practicable, Congress again assembled, it
would be with a slate cleared of all but hnan-
clal legislation to which the entire time up to
the first Monday in December could be devoted
While it is as yet too early to say that this
view has gained friends in Washington, and es-
pecially among those who at first strongly OPP
posed so early a session, it may be said that
this view is receiving careful consideration, es
pecially as it is believed to be favored by some
few of the most experienced and influential Re-
nublican members of Congress.
