SCOTS Chance
For Chairman
WEST vlRoINlAN's PROSPECTS
BRIGHT TO FOLLOW COR.
TELYou. &.

WASHINGTON. D. c.. Jan. T.
The prospects are regarded as good
that Senator Scott will succeed
George b. Cortelyou as chairman of
the Republican National Committee
when Mr.. Cortelyou becomes secre.
tary of the treasury in March. BY a
resolution authorizing him to fill any
vacancies some think that the power
to name his successor will lie in Mr..
Cortefyou. Others take a different
view. They say that when Mr.. Cor.
tefyou resigns he will no !Lnger have
the power Of filling vacancies. How.
ever that may be, the word Is ou.
that the tdnior Senator from Yves.
Virginia stands a good show OF getting
the place. Stories have been sent
out to the effect That there has been
a deal between Scott and Fairbanks.
whereby Scott Is TO he made chair
man Of the committee over New-an
Indiana man-and that in return
Scott is to support Fairbanks for the
nomination. However, there Is
thought to he TO foundation for this
story. though 1t must be conceded
that Scott end FAIRBANKS both train
with the Old school o. Republican
statesmen, rather than with the new.
of which Rrcsiden; Roosevelt is the
exponent.

ments for the Ohio. Ite says that 1t
is probable that The war department
will recommend a twelve foot stage at
Parkersburg, and that DE to3es to
have the money now available spent
with a view to giving that depth of
water.
Not at Al Frightened.
The stories in some OF the West vir-
gfnia papers to the effect that there is
an effort made to so shape up
the legislature so as TO secure the Sc,
lection OF Governor Dawson to the
senatorship to succeed Senator Elkins
do not seem to have alarmed that dis.
ing,ished gentleman very much. II
Is pretty certain from what has trans
pirei in Washington in the last few
months that Dawson and Elkins I'M.
derstand one another and hat there
Will be no trouble along that score
Governor Dawson has not the remot.

the other hand he has been here
several times and has had frequent
conferences with him. AS a matter of
fact. all tho politicians who come to
Washington treat tle selection of

old FIGHTERS ON
THE GROUND FOR
USUAL SCRAP
Fairmonters Reach
State Capital

CHARLESTON. Jan. THE inter-
view in which Governor Dawson is
quoted as saying that an attempt is
being made to organize the State SEN
ate by and for grafters, has stirred up
quite a hornets nest among the sena-
tors already here, aud there is much
talk tonight of investigation, In which
the governor Will be called upon to
give some facts which he claims to
have. Several; different conceptions
have been heard regarding what was
the meaning Of this sentence In the
interview. some taking 1t to include
all members, while others think II
only means certain factions. A great
deal of interest has been arousei
the interview and 1t may have cd
cradle meaning on the result o
fight for president OF the Senate.
CHARLESTON, Jan. IA majorl(
OF the members OF the State legislatursS
are on the ground and from now on
there viii be nm interesting time until
after the Of the Republicans
are held on Tuesday. The hotels are
filed with members OF the law making
body and politicians from ali parts OF
the State, and there is a great deal OF
work being done both by the admins
tration and the antis for their candi
dates for the presidency Of the Senate.
This fight overshadows everything
else in point Of interest and viii con.
tinue to do so, even though each side
claims they have the other whipped
to a finish. A large number Of the
delegates and Senators from the
northern and eastern part of the State
came IN tonight, and they were nc
companied by many who were looking
for Jobs, as well as others who are
here simply for the purpose OF looking
on at the show.
The administration people are
claiming that they WI win out In the
fight for president OF the Senate hands
down, and that McDermott, OF Nor
gantown, will be the man. They also
claim that John T. Harris, of par
kersburg, will be the clerk. which has
been a foregone conclusion. II Is
claimed that while McDermott has not
been as strong as was anticipated.
since his arrival Saturday he has gain
ed In strength to a wonderful degree,
and that there is now no doubt but
that he will win ont In the end. On
the other hand Marshall and his
friends are just as confident and some
of the most confident ones claim that
he will not have less than fifteen mem
bers OF the Senate when the caucus IS
held.
Governor Dawson and the other
State officials are reported to be TAX
ing little active part in the contest.
with the exception Of Secretary OF
State Swisher, who has been and
still is backing McDermptt He is Just
as optimistic; now as he has ever been
regarding McDermott.s chances OF
winning.
