CLEVELAND TALK ARISES
Eastern Arrivals in ST. Louis Lean
Toward Ex-President.

st. Louis. July Talk in the in.
terest of Mr.. Cleveland for the presi-
dency constituted the most prominent
feature of the ante-convention gossip
heard today and the publication here
Of a Washington dispatch quoting
John R. Mclean in advocacy of the
eX-presidents nomination had added
somewhat to the column of predic-
ton.
There is no definite movement dis
cernable as yet in Mr.. Cieveland's in
terest, and the few delegates in the
city generally decline to discuss the
probabilities, saying that all predic-
tons would be premature at this
| time.
The discussion is therefore confined
| to politicians other than delegates, and
with reference to the Cleveland nom
classes-those who favor him and
those who fear him. In a general
way, eastern arrivals are favorable on
the ground that M +. Cleveland can
carry eastern states, such as New
| York, which they say no other man
can carry. 1t is asserted that strong
| influence among the business inter-
ests is being organized in his interest.
At the Jefferson hotel, where the
national committee makes it's head
quarters, the friends of Judge Parker
are congregated in large numbers,
and included among them are a num-
Der of leaders from the west whA;
delegations are not instructed for n
New York candidate. They are very
antagonistic to Mr.. Cleveland, and,
believing that Mr.. Parker is the most
available instrument with which to
accomplish the, defeat of the ex-
president, they are quite prepared to
accept him. They freely predict
Parkers nomination at a compare
| lively early date in the convention.
Delegates instructed for Mr.. Hearst
say that gentleman will not be able
to control all his forces in case Of a
break, and the claim is made that
even many of them will go to Parker.
Indeed, the friends of Parker ASSERT
that the Cleveland talk which is now
SO plentiful will have the inevitable
i effect of aiding their candidate.
/ The Parker men do not accept the
theory that Mclean and German are
sincere in their support of Cleveland,
/ calling attention to past antagonisn
in support of their theory.

A STRANGE MESSENGER

The story of the discovery of human
bones and bangles in the interior of
crocodile captured at Fort John
son. Rhodesia, brings to mind an
other story which may appositely be
recalled at the present juncture.
Everybody has heard of Mrs. Mac
quarries' chair as they call the east
ern point of Farm cove, in Sydney
harbor There it was that a poor
emigrant, in precable days, killed and
towed ashore a shark cut him up and
found a London newspaper in his in
ternals. In the paper was the an
nouncement of the war between
France and Germany. The shark had
outdistanced the steamer by which the
mail was coming, and here the dis
coverer had the fact to himself. He
gave his information to wealthy
wool dealer, who bought all the sea-
sons clip at 9 pence pound and sold
it at 8 shillings after the news of war
had arrived by the ordinary channel.
He cleared, it is said, f4,000,000 by
the deal. The man who killed the
shark and extracted the news OF
price-well, he received battered silk
hat and 5-shilling piece, and unre-
strained liberty as to the disposal Of
the shark
