MAKING LOTS OF TROUBLE
Moran Seems Likely to Kick Over the
Democratic Dish in Massa-
chuSetts.

Boston, Aug. 2S.-Public utterances from
various state leaders today developed new
interest in the struggle for the Demo
cratic nomination for governor of Mas
sachusetts. District Attorney John p.
Moran led off by sending a caustic let
ter to Josiah Quincy. chairman of the
Democratic state committee refusing the
latterS suggestion to submit the nomina-
ton issue to William Jennings BRYAN.
Inc district attorney forwarded one of
his campaign buttons to Chairman OlJin-
cy with the remark that the wearing of
the same would be proof of Mr.. Quincy's
recognition OF the right OF the people OF
Massachusetts to govern themselves i'm
defiance of dictation by self-constftuted
bosses.
Chairman Quincy replied by promising
vigorous hostility TO Mr.. Morans candi-
dacy. He added. however that he would
cease his opposition TO Moran after he
had become satisfied that a majority of
the Democrats wanted candidate whose
nomination, to his mind. spelled "humili-
alton and disaster" Mr. Quincy init
mated that he would resign his position
as chairman Il Mr.. Moran were NOM
mated.
Former Congressman John R. Thayer
not be a candidate for the Democratic
nomination for governor under any cir
cumstances. Henry NJ. Whitney recently
issued a similar announcement and for
mer Governor William l. Douglass has
declared his unwillingness to run unless
nominated without opposition. The situa-
ton has apparently given new hope "a

Tillman Seems to Have Pulled
Through in South Carolina
Democratic Primaries.

Columbia S. C.. Aug. 2S.-The state pri-
mary election held today attracted un-
usual attention and the vote was large.
The dispensary was the issue I'm most of
the counties, there being two sets of can
didates, one favoring and the other oppos-
ed to the dispensary. Incomplete returns
indicate that a majority of the dispensary
advocates have been chosen.
Interest In the election centered in the
race for governor and the contest for at /
torney general. Senator Tillman made
about twenty speeches in favor of the dis
penSary. He supported Richard l. Man
ming for governor and was opposed to M
F. Ansel. who stands on local option
platform. He also opposed ]. F. Lyon for
attorney general Lyon is against the
diSpenSary and as a member of the ex-
ecutive investigating committee an
nounced that he was investigating early
transactions of Mr.. Tilman when COVER
nor. Incomplete returns from nearly every
county give Ansel a considerable lead over
Manning.
Lytton leads for attorney general. There
is no contest for railroad commissioner.
Boyd leads for adjutant general and Wal

Appeal to the Public.
The executive committee of the car
men today issued a statement in the
form of an appeal to the public. de-
claring themselves unwilling to return
to work unless upon some offer more
definite than il conveyed in the com
munication of President Calhoun invft-
ing them to return to work pending a
consideration of their demands.
No official statement was made by
the railroad officials during the day.
and 1T is not expected that any other,
oner will be made to the men under
the present conditions. 1t is a general
impression that the company will not
wait more than a few days for a re-
spouse to the invitation to return to
work, and in some quarters it is be-
lieved that an attempt will be made to
operate cars within the next three
days.
Activity Of the Mayor.
There was but little Improvement IN
the conditions affecting the general
public during the day. Mayor Schmitz
has announced that he will tomorrow
attempt TO arrange for a conference
with representatives of the United

mayor has expressed a belief that the
existing differences can be most speed

clared himself in favor OF a general
