Especial Dispatch to the Morning Journal
Santa Fe, n. NJ. March 14.-The
political cauldron is seething vigor-
ously today and rumors are plenty.
Simmered down, the present situation
is about this: Andrews wants a eau
Gus and figures on the twenty-three
votes required to win there. Whlle
his competitors do not admit that he
has this number still, if he has, 1t Is
not enough to win, as there are sew
eral members who will not vote for
him under any circumstances, ana
the general impression is that he can
not add TO the strength that he al
ready has. In other words, the
strength that Andrews has on the
start will be the limit of his strength
and after the first show down he
will have shot his bolt. OF course his
friends still claim that he is the one
sure bet; but the best bet in TINS
contest is yet to be discovered.
The friends of Andrews still cling
tenaciously to their theory that II
will be Andrews and a dark horse.
but to one looking at the show from
the outside, this does not look like
the right dope.
There is a good deal of feeling be-
ing manifested over the presence here
of Senator Casimiro Barela. from
Colorado, and there is disposition
manifested to have Senator Guggen-
helm call him home. The method OF
electing senators in vogue there 90
not appeal to the people OF New
Mexico, and they do not see the ne
cessity of having an outsider come
down here and attempt to run our
affairs, and especially a man from
the rottenest state in the union, po-
litically. Barela is stirring up feeiihs
that will not help the republicans OF
this state and he is not wanted mere.
Just how much he has accomplished
and how much harm he has done
will be developed later
Outside of the lieutenants of An
drews and those who are back OF
Barela in his movement, the genera
impression still prevails that Judge
FAN will land. and from this II must
not be inferred that the Barela con-
tingent is opposed TO Fall. They are
not: but are looking out only for their
