It Is the Overshadowing Topic

Washington, Sept. 29.—The candi-
dacy of Senator Hill continues to fur¬
nish the leading topic in political cir¬
cles here, as it seems to be agreed that
the result in New York will have an
important bearing on the presidential
Contest two years hence. Since the
New York convention, Hill's name has
been connected with the presidency by
Democratic leaders who have heretofore
regarded No him in Washington as an impossibility. At
man more en¬
thusiastic over Mr. Hill’s' nomination
than Senator Faulkner, wl|o is now de¬
voting all his energies to the congres¬
sional campaign. Senator Faulkner is
close to Senator Gorman, find in view
of the Maryland leader’s hfitred of Hill,

'.‘There is only one D; B," said
Mr. Faulkner. ‘ ‘Think of the unparal¬
leled boldness of the man! He has
staked his whole political future on suc¬
cess in this fight. And, ’ ’ he added, with
emphasis, “I believe New he will York, win. A
friend of mine from a prom¬
inent man, and one who does not like
Hill, told me recently 'that, next to
the Whitney, Democrats Hill could was the Wrongest man
nominate. He is
a marvelous politician. Here he was
fighting us on the tariff question as
hard as he could, denouncing the income
tax and doing all that he oould to cir¬
cumvent the Democrats, and now he
goes back to New York and has every¬
thing his own way,*’ the
The narrowness of Democratic
margin in the senate, with the prospect
of a hard fight to retain even the pres¬
ent advantage, naturally has aroused
considerable speculation as to the effect
of Mr. Hill’s candidacy on the Now
York senatorship. No one imagines
that he will resign, and it is doubted in
some quarters that h'e Will qualify as
governor, if elected, even if the Demo¬
crats sembly get a insure sufficient his majority in being the as¬
to successor a
Democrat, If he wins and the victory
extends to the legislature, Bourke Cockran it is the geu- will
eral belief that
succeed him in the event of his retire¬
ment from the senate.
It is the opinion on all sides that de¬
feat would mean the termination of
Hill’s political career, and that even his
usefulness in the senate would be gone.
Strange as it may appear at this time,
there is a strong belief that Mr. Hill
will not retire from the senate if he is
elected. The triumph ill New York
would give him new prestige as a Dem¬
ocratic leader, but the seuator has much
to accomplish, which could only be ac¬
complished in the senate, to make him
an acceptable Democrats prasidential of the candidate and to
the south west.
Before the repeal of the Sherman Hill bill
became a prominent issue Senator
had strong silver leanings. - -Senator
Stewart talked openly about Mr. Hill’s
views in favor of silver, and he was
sorely disappointed when the New York

seuator Jumped info the leadership et

anti, by forcing unconditional the repeal,
blasted the hope of silver men that
they would secure some concession, car¬
rying with it the purchase of silver on
the part of the government, Mr. Hill
haa yet to make terms with the south on
the silver question. His stand in favor
of free raw materials made him many
friends in that section, but the silver is¬
sue is not overshadowed by the tariff.
For these reasons it is thought possible
that Mr. Hill, if elected, will beoontent
with the prestige of the triumph and
Will return to the senate for the purpose
of building fences for 1898.
In certain Democratic circles here, it
is feared that the sugar trust will use
it’s influence to cause Hill’s defeat. He
almost secured the passage of the free
sugar amendment when the bill was
being taken up by paragraphs, and carried and it
was amendment he who which proposed cut off from the the
trust the privilege of importing President sugar
free up until Jan. 1, next.
Havemeyer, of the trust, admitted be¬
fore the sugar investigating committee
that it was the policy of his company to
contribute to state campaigns, what and it
will be interesting to discover part
the trust will play in this campaign.

Washington, Sept, 29. —, Secretary
Carlisle was questioned as to his views
of the wisdom of the Saratoga conven¬
tion in nominating Mr. Hill as the Dem¬
ocratic candidate for governor of New
York- The secretary declined to dis¬
cuss for publication it is the learned action from of the
convention, but his
friends that the secretary regards the
ticket as a strong one—one as strong as
could have been named, and it is his be¬
lief that it will be successful in Novem¬

A RUMORED SALE.

Atlanta, Sept. 29.—A rumor is out
to the effect that there will be papers
filed, in the United States court at Ma¬
con within a very few days asking for
the immediate side of the Central Rail¬
road of Georgia. It is said tliat the
same gained publication in an afternoon
paper in Macon, and that it was backed
up by the word ot men in position to
know what they were talking will di¬
Although Receiver Comer not
vulge any of the details of the work, it
is said that the reorganizers are now
clamoring for a speedy straightening of
the Central’s affairs. It is said that the
schemes are all laid and that the work
will be rushed through the courts like a
flash of lightning.
It is further stated that the Southern
Railway company will control the sale
of the Central absolutely, although it is
believed, and is in fact given out, that
the giant system will not attempt to
bay the road outright or manage it in
the matter of operation.
According to the rumors that are out
it would appear that the papers asking
for the sale of the road will be ready to
be filed when Judge Spoer in the Macon
court convenes the court the first Mon¬
day in October.

Waco, Tex., Sept. 29.—A. G. Gass,
secretary and treasurer of the Bayou
Lumber company, of Camden, Ark.,
arrived here and caused the arrest of O.
L. Wiiliams, F. K. Cammack and H.
M. Cammack. They are with society violating young
men. They are charged representing
the United States laws by

they wore a lumber firm doing business
at Waco, when in fact they were not
snch, and by false representations in¬
ducing the Bayou Lumber company to
forward to them lumber, which they
sold from the cars at a large discount.

of this place violated mi agreement and
sold their sugar for less than the price
stipulated by the trust, and when these
merchants sent in their next order their
money was returned to them, with the
information that they could not pur¬
chase any more sugar of the trust. The
trust has put up sugar on* cent on the
