HOLDS SOME CONFERENCES

Atlanta, May 7.-(Speoial)- 1.-The politi- cal situation continues to grow interest Ing. Two or three political conferences have been in progress during the day,
 Is stated, and Hoke smith Is reported
 70 be preparing a reply to the interview from Clark Howell, published this morn ing, according to the politicians, had added some zest to the discussion.
 An interesting feature of the situation was the presence in Atlanta this morn ing of J. Pope Brown, chairman of the railroad commission, whose gubernatorial boom appears 10 have been badly punc- tured by his friends, according to the political prognostieatlons.
 While Mir Brown would say nothing for publication. his friends assert and one of them Is Congressman T. W. Hard :. wick of the Tenth district, who was l in the city with him today-that there is perfect understanding between MT a3rown and Mir Smith, and that which never one of them makes the race, the other will be found supporting him.
 In support of this theory the fact may fbe pointed out that while here MT. Brown spent the entire morning in conference with James k. Gray, editor of the Jour nal which is conducting MT. Smiths campaign. Following this conference MT. Brown, who has just returned from Rome, where he has been making commence merlt speeches took the train for flaw knsville after declining to be interviewed 1r any manner upon the race for the govei norship.
 On the other hand 1t is stated sthat MT Brown may have called on MT. Gray to know why he had been thus treated. ! In the absence of any definite informa- ton on the subject, it will have to be guessed at.
 Congressman Hardwiek is authority for the statement tha, there is perfect un- derstanding between MT. Brown and Mr. Smith, which would appear to mean that one and only one of them will make the race. Congressman Hardwick also ex- pressed the opinion here today that whichever one of them made the race would win.
 It seems the most interesting develop

ment today therefore, is that either MT. Brown or MT. Smith will retire from the race. Which will it be? MT. Smiths friends assert confidently that he will run-in fact they say ne cannot do any
 thing else in view of the practical chal- lenge which has been given by MT. Howell. If this is true 1t would seem that MT. Browns retirement would come along with MT, Smiths announcement
 Whatever turn the matter may take, this Is likely to be the most important development of the campaign within the next few days and politicians are anxiously awaiting the turn of the die
