WASHINGTON. ID. c.. January 12.---s
Special Virginia members Of Congress
are beginning to take consid cradle inter-
est in the expressions of public men as
to the most available man for the Demo
cratic presidential nomination next year
In the Virginia delega ton, as among
Democrats In the House generally, the
sentiment appears to be more favorable
to Judge Alton B. Parker. OF New York
than to any other candidate.
Representative Hay said today: II am
for Judge Alton B. Parker. He is the
most. available man. He has never been
identified with either wing Of the party
but has a clear record OF supporting
the nominee. He possesses all the quail
ties essential to political leadership and
which make man eligible for that high.
office. He has great mental powers an.
is man Of unquestionsd integrity of
mind. and purpose. His Democracy and
his record as Democrat cannot be sue
cessfully assailed.
STRENGTH IN THE EAST.
Judge Parker's candidacy would mean
victory for Democracy. in many Of the
Eastern States. Besides this; he could
carry the great independent vote of the
country.
his strength III new fOTR Is aSPiucHCtu

Representative Lamb, Of Richmond,
shares the opinion of Mr.. Hay, He said:
while think It is too early to express
opinions on the next nominee. and who
he shall be. have no hesitation in say

me that he is in every way fitted for the
leadership in 1904. think he is the man
who can win, and therefore I am fo1
him.
Congressman Gaines of Tennessee
said: II am for Parker, in fact, so far
as l am able to ascertain, there is an
almost unanimous sentiment In his favor
