AT THE HOTELS.

member Of the Democratic National Com
mittee, who is IN attendance at the sit
tings Of the Supreme Court, said last
night at the New Willard that he would
not be greatly surprised If the Democrats
united on William Randolph Hearst as
the next candidate Of the party for Pres
ident
THE tone OF Dir. Hearst's papers has
been changing so noticeably lately, and
he has become so largely the advocate
Of the protection Of property, that would
not be at all surprised if 1t resulted in his
selection as the head of the Democratic
ticket.
IF President Roosevelt decides 20 &C
cept the Republican nomination, / believe
that Mr. Bryan viii not run again. am
thoroughly convinced Of this. The Demo-
cratic party is ready for some conserva-
tive Eastern man who will accurately
represent its true spirit"
Lewis stuyvesant Chanler, Col. Lewis
said. does not possess the necessary pop
ularity, nor is he known well enough
throughout the country 10 receive the
nomination. Concerning the fact that
Judge Parker the last Democratic candi-
date was also rated as a conservative
and was an Eastern man, Col. Lewis said
that az the time Of Judge Parker's selec-
ton he was not well enough known to
win from a man like Mr.. Roosevelt.
Col. Lewis has been mentioned as the
next Democratic nominee for the COVER
norshis Of Illinois. In speaking Of this,
he said that on his return from Russia
the question as 10 whether he would ac-
cept il or not was asked him. he said
that he had then stated that he would
under no consideration take the nominal
ton unless he were allowed 10 do so
upon his own platform, and unless It was
distinctly understood that in his selec-
ton no obligations 70 any boss were in
CURED. He still holds 70 this decision.
a. o. Crispin, Of Dodbrook, England,
who, with Miss Crispin, has been a guest
at the Shoreham for several days, comes
of a distinguished line Of Englishmen.
The charter Of Mr.. Crispin's manor, Dod-
brook. was given to one Of his ancestors
by Henry II. Another Of the family.
William Crispin, was surveyor general
for William Penn. and was largely in
strumentaI in founding the present State
/ Of Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Crispin was a friend Of President
Mckinley, and yesterday for the first
/ time met President Roosevelt. He IS a
student OF American conditions, and be-
/ leves that there are several aiiings OF
! the body polite which require attention.
/ Speaking Of the immense fortunes typi-
| fed in this country by that Of John D.
1 Rockefeller. Mr. Crispin said that such
| enormous Accommodations were a menace
10 the country in which they exist IN
| England. he declared, no such cumula-
/ tive fortunes are possible.
4 The trusts, he believes. are much in
need Of the hand Of a master, as they
are but a higher type Of swollen for
( tune and perpetuate the control Of COM
modities to such an extent as to seri-
ously threaten the markets OF the world,
/ If not curtailed
/ Mr.. CTispin believes that the great num-
/ Der Of foreigners who settle in America
each year are necessary 10 the growth
/ OF this nation. and does not think that
| laws which will tend 10 lessen this tide
/ OF immigration can be more tightly
/ drawn in the near future.
The present tariff, he believes, must
| sooner or later be removed, or else II viii
! become necessary for the other nations
OF the world 10 help remove IL by acts Of
similar nature directed against American
products. Mr.. Crispin said that he be-
/ lieves the excessive tariff Will ultimately
| cause such high cost OF living in America
| that it viii be impossible for men to live
( here on the same amount Of money as IN
other countries.
| Bayard T. Hainer, associate justice Of
/ the Supreme Court OF Oklahoma. who
/ has been az the Riggs House for several
/ days, said last night that no matter
what men are appointed 10 the Federal
/ judgeships in his State by President
! Roosevelt, no mistake will be made. as
I all those who desire these positions are
well worthy of receiving them.
/ Judge Hainer said his part OF the
country is strongly Rooseveltian, and
/ that II the President Will consent to take
/ the Republican nomination, he believes
oklahoma VIII roll up a majority for
him over the Democratic candidate OF
more than 10000.
| Concerning the much-discussed consti-
tuition, Judge Hainer had little 10 say,
! since he was the judge who rendered =
/ decision in the injunction proceedings in
/ stituted against that instrument.
The reports that the banks Of his State
/ have been directed 10 suspend business
! for limited period he regards as merely
/ an indication that money TO move the
/ immense yield Of cotton is still needed
/ by the financial institutions.
we have had such a great cotton
crop said Judge Hainer. "a crop that
/ has never had an equal in the State.
/ that it will take a large amount OF
money to handle it.
Otherwise I believe that there is no
reason for any apprehension over the
order for suspension Of our banks The
State is very prosperous. and there need
be no fear that it is anything other than
what I have Stated-that is. al the bot
tom of the suspension"

trict said last night at the New Willard

President that the country has ever
known. not barring even Abraham Lin

doubt If Mr.. Roosevelt can be induced
10 accept the Republican nomination, hs
will sweep the country.
Referring TO politics in the environs OF
Pittsburg. DR.. Barchfeld said that in the
