Times Dispatch Bureau.


Washington. p. G., Sept. is.
The friends of Lewis Stuyvesani
chanlel, Lieutenant Governor of New
York, announce that they will launch
formally his boom for the Democratic
nomination to the presidency at an
early meeting OF the Democratic State
Committee of New York State. They
claim that the committee will indorse
his candidacy. and allege that this Will
mean that the New York Democracy
will go into the national convention
pledged to support the nomination OF
Nlr. Chanlcr.
1t is planned to have the State cons
mittee meet soon after the session of
the Republican Central Committee of
New York State At the meeting of
the Democratic committee a resolution
the candidacy OF Lieutenant
Governor Chanler will be proposed, and
1T is claimed that will be unanimous
!y adopted. II this be done. there Is
little reason to doubt that Chanler will
capture the state delegation to the
Democratic national convention.
Outside of New York such action OF
the Democrats of that State would ba
regarded as declaration of intention
to press the claims of the young Lieu
tenant Governor with aggressiveness.
Any candidate who goes into a ma
tional convention with the support of
the Empire State behind him should
be taken very seriously. The Chanlers
people claim they are rapidly getting

and have been at work on this in

of North Caioiina, have indorsad HIS
candidacy.

For almost q week Mrs. Fenton has

what she has endured. one must have
the Imagination of Baudelaire or the

Woven in with the story is n strange

marvellous courage of this woman who,
imprisoned with those who rave,
worked out her own salvation.

fact. there have been found some who
have gone SO far as to express doubts
as to his being even anywhere near
the very frigid point from which he
is alleged to have tried to start his
flight to tho pole, and very grave
doubts are entertained in some quar-
ters as to whether he has an air
ship.
This belief In the genuincness of the
purely Chautauquan enterprise upon
which Wellrnan has been engaged is
universal among those who know him
best. Even granting that all the
money and labor have been expended
upon the enterprise that he alleges,
it will prove a paying investment.
