YORK JURIST MPOS-
SlsLE@TO ELECT.

PITTsBURG. June ls.ln talking
to a close friend James NJ. Guffey,
State Democra leader. stated day
or 50 ago that his sole effort was TO
sseeura the choice of a Democrat who,
win. He said he had twice followed
Bryan, in an army of unshod, on for
$lorns hopes, Id now he wanted to sup
n port u man with whom there was
some hope Of arriving at definite
and tangible result.
Such man, Gufrey has about con
@cInded, Grover Cleveland. While
admitting that personally he cannot
consider Cleveland as most to his
taste he believes that the Princeton
man is the only one strong enough
get the backing of the business
men and win, i. ,nat is possible for a
penocrat. In figuring on a possible
Bryan detection Guffey says that
enough votes, heretofore Republican,
viii be secured by Cleveland to more
a than offset the loss.
Other Pittsbt1rgers are taking this
view of the case. Charles A. Pagan
expressed himself in favor OF the
cleveland candidacy and says he be-
ssliaves the Sage of Princeton will be
nominated in ST. Louis after the first
ballots are taken.
E City; Controller Larlsin is much in
terested in the Presidential situation,
u and is keeping in touch with the
march Of events. He had a talk
with Pagan a few days ago, and the
II
a5at length. The Controller thinks
Cleveland would make strong candi'
date and does not think Judge Parker
can win on account OF the Tammany
{ opposition in New York. No meeting
of the Allegheny county delegation
has vet been held The delegates will
probably leave for ST. Louis on July
n Cd
5sAs the time for the Democratic Ma
s5tiona1 convention in ST. Louis draws
nearer activity in the Democratic
ranks is reaching an acute stage, and
more and more interest centers around
the uninstructed Pennsylvania dele
cation and its leader, Colonel James
M Guffey- Many factions have sought
to get some word from the Pittsburg-
4Eer, and having failed directly are
sounding all the Democratic leaders
OF the State.
Guffey's position, tits stated tlefin-
itely, is a neutral one, but he has re-
Gently had leanings toward Cleveland.
Personally he favors Judge Alton B.
Parker. but ne firmly believes that
Judge Parker has no chance for cleo
z-tion, even If he secures the nominal
ton. On this account he worked
against the instruction OF the Key
stone delegation, and has since re
fused to identify himself with the
& Parker following
Guffey has had a number of confer
ences with the TapnEnany leader, c.
4 r. Murphy, but beyond stating his
view OF Parker's candidacy, which
Tammany opposes, the local man re-
fused to pledge himself. He was
sounded for Mcclellan. but was not

Distinguidos militares americanos
1 Oplnan que Ia captura de Puerto Arturo
no hara mas facil la campafa para los

| que decidira en- defnitiva, tendra que IL
brarse en- TERRA y sera en- Ia Manchuria.
Ell plan estrategico de los japoneses con-

de creerse que los rusOs 10 cOnsientan?
Los japOneses podran obstruir q los ru-

dicen los militares de referencia, que ell
prOblemA de transporter pertrechos de
guerra y provisiones de todas classes re-
sultara tan diffcil para los japoneses CO.
mo para los rusOs, con Ia agravante de
los peligros del mar. Los rusos poseen
la facilidad de Ia conducci6n por TERRA
y puede tenerse Ia seguridad de que con
