.OLNEY DOWN AND OUT
Southern and Western Dem
ocrats Will Not Consider Him.
SPEECH LAST NIGHT
WILL HEREAFTER BE CLAssED
WITH MR.. CLEVELAND.
Sentiments Of the Minority Heard in
the Cloak Rooms and Corridors
of the Capitol Today.

Democrats in the House and Senate were
lished report of the harmony dinner given
in New York last night in honor Of Mayor
Mcclellan and for the purpose Of bringing
together prominent representatives from
different sections of the party. The fea-
ture of the dinner which attracted the
most attention and occasioned the most
comment was the speech of Mr.. Olney set
ting forth democratic principles and nam
ing Mr. Cleveland as the greatest living
exponent of those principles and the man
who could most successfully stand for
them as the presidential candidate of his
party.
In the cloak rooms and corridors of the
Capitol the democrats discussed delight
edly the STRUCTURES of NIr. Olney and of Mr.
Hill upon the dominant party and Presi-
dent Roosevelt. General concurrence in
the views of the speakers upon the repub-
licans and their leader was found among
democrats. But when It came to Mr.. OIL
ney's suggestion Of Mr.. Cleveland dam
per would be thrown over the discussion.
olney Now Out Of It. -
Mr.. Omeys remarks about Mr.. Cleveland
were met with wry face among the south
ern and western democrats. One effect of
his speech last night will be. 1t is said, to
eHoCtudlty SHUT OH dn ConSiueIdtiol VI MI.
Olney as a possible presidential candidate
by the southern and western democrats.
He will be ticketed and classed with Mr..
Cleveland more effectually than ever before.
although his candidacy always has been
tainted with Clevelandism, to use the ex-
preston most frequently heard among
southerners. Within the past ten days an
effort has been made to start an Olney
boom, but it Is evident from the remarks
made today by prominent democrats that
neither the Olney boom nor the Cleveland
boom is likely to get further south than
the Back bay.
versation with Star reporter this after
noon, gave utterance to the opinion which
seems generally to be shared by democrats
of the south and west. g.
Senator Tillman on Cleveland.
Cleveland again?' said Senator Tillman.
THE idea is nonsensical. With him as our
candidate we would lose every chance that
We now have to carry Vhe presidential elsc-
tion. Within the past month or TWO l
have heard expressions and have seen in
terviews from every democrat In the Sen
their statement that Mr.. Cleveland WAS
impossible.
81 realize that among the gold-bug demo-
Gratis of the east he Is popular. l also ad-
NIT that he would get some votes from
republicans. He Is good a republican
that he would be preferred by many men
In that party to Roosevelt But, bless you,
bring us he would lose an untold number
of our own democrats. Oh 1t Is absurd to
talk about Cleveland" said the senator
with a gesture of disgust.

Henry WaiIenstein Discusses Condi

Henry Wallenstein of the Boston Store
returned from New York yesterday, where
he had been for several weeks in the
interest OF his firm. In speaking Of in
dustrial conditions back east, Mr.. Wal
lenstein said:
There is nothing serious in the money
market in the east and the panic which
has been told about so much l was I'M
able to notice Everything seems to be
sr perfect working order and moving
along nicely. Business is good and one
never hears a complaint along this line
from New York business men. They
have begun to awaken to the fact That
the west is coming rapidly to the front
I'm commercial and financial considera-
ton The east is looking TO the west
with a jealous eye, for, as they say II
IL soon to be the greatest business cen
ter of this country. l see no ground
for making the assertion that the east
however is in hot water over money
strineencies. They are rejoicing in their
prosperous conditions and now the only
thing that possibly remains to make
them feel rather gloomy is that our part
Of the country is slowly but surely gain
ing tie iaure!s, from a business stand
point
Mr Nanenstein also spoke OF the ter
rife winter they are having in New York
and said: New York has experienced
tn. worst winter this season they have
had since 1854 Terrific bliZZards have
been raging there constantly and the
mortality among the poor people has
greatly increased thereby.

AGAINST DEMURRAGE RULE

There will be a gathering today of the
representative business men of the city
of Wichita who are car load shippers
for the purpose of discussing and protest
ing against the new rules recently put
into effect by the Missouri Valley Car
Service association, regulating the denur-
rage charges The meeting will be held
commencing at 7:45 O'Clock in the Cham
Der of Commerce rooms
There have been many complaints from
car load shippers regarding the new rules
ever since they We're put into effect. At
Kansas City a short Time ago the bust
ness men got together and protested in
such vigorous manner that the officers
of the Car Service association finally de-
cided not to enforce the new rules and
the order was revoked. The change also
affects St Joseph but does not affect any
other shipping point.
Since the issuing of the new rules some
| of the local shippers have been paying
whatever demurrage charges were pre-
scented against them. Others have refused
to pay only what they thought was right.
When seen yesterday, ]. E. Howard.
who is a director of the Chamber of
Commerce and one of the largest shippers
of grain in the city, said: we are simply
going TO protest against the imposition.
We want what is just and equitable.
You can say whatever you please about 1t
in the paper. There is nothing right
about the new rules
Under the revised rules consignees of
freight are given no free time whatever
for ordering the disposition of cars and
even reduced the time for unloading in
some cases. One of the products affected
by the change was coal. Before the
change was made y hours were allowed
for unloading, but it was proposed to re-
duce this TO IS hours. This rule changing
the time on unloading coal has not yet
gone into effect. Ever since it was made
though, the coal dealers have declared
that it would be unjust to them and pro-
pose to protest.
