A CONFERENCE TO BE HELD TO-DAY Mayor Gourley Favors the Candidaej of Uajor A. M. Brown. .BETTING OX FEDERAL APPOINTMENTS Major Montooth returned from 2few York yesterday and emphasized the state ments he had previously made by an abso lute declaration that he would not be a candidate for Mayor under any circum stances. A-Not even if Dr. McCandless should withdraw?" was asked. '.Not if he would withdraw to-morrow. I can't afford to be a candidate or to accept the office and I would not accept the nomi nation under any circumstances." A short conference of several Republican leaders took place in City Hall yesterday afternoon. "What transpired none of them would telL Another conference is slated to take place this eveninc. C I Magee, who is expected to have much to do with the selection of the Republican candidates, will be home from 2'ew York and partici pate in this important meeting. Those who have been talking of Major Brown's desirability as the nominee have decided to wait until after this conference before send ing a oommittee to the Major to ascertain if he will accept the nomination. In regard to Dr. McCandless' candidacy his friends declare they will not allow him to be cheated out of the nomination if they can avoid it, but if the v can't Major Brown would be acceptable to them. Mayor Gour ley declared yesterday that Major Brown would make an ideal candidate, would com mand the'respect and support of the people regardless ot party, would 11 the office with the dignity it deserves and would pro tect the interests ot tne people. . The name of "William Martin, er-Secre-taryeftbe Amalgamated Association, was menti ned yesterday in connection with the Republican mayoralty nomination. He de clared he knew nothing about it outside of a few personal friends who lad spoken to him of it incidentally. Mr. Martin now holds a situation under the Carnegie Steel Company. No change was visible in the Democratic situation yesterday. Magistrate McKenna appeared to be the only candidate who had anv reason to expect the nomination. He said he had received assurances from sev eral persons who had been mentioned as probable opponents that they would not run, but would do all they could to nomi nate and elect him. County Commissioner Boyle atill insists that the Democrats shall nominate a full ticket, with McKenna at the head and Stephen McCandless for Con troller. He said there was some talk ot Captain Kerr for Treasurer, but the Cap tain's friends say he is not a candidate for wything but Mayor. II? WISCONSIN AHD IOWA. Mr. Hankin Says Resentment Defeated the Republican Tarty. A C Rankin, the Allegheny temperance lecturer, did a great deal of campaign work In the "West this fall for the Republican National Committee. He made 51 speeches in "Wisconsin and 21 in Iowa. He says the Republicans never made a better fight in "Wisconsin, and if it had not been for the general slump in the country would fcave carried the State. "With the school issue in h:s favor Governor Peck had a majority nf 0,000 in Milwaukee two years ago. In the last election he had only 27 votes to spare in the German city. In Iowa the fight was easy, tlhe tendency was toward the Republican party all along the line. "It was resentment against the Repub lican party and not the tariff that defeated us," Mr. Rankin continued. "We never had a better platform, and little argument was needed to support our principles. In Iowa oany of the candidates traveled over the State and held joint debates. In the last year or so the country has been bur dened with numerous strikes. They were not confined to any particular place. Pinkertons and the military-were called on to restrain the workmen. It appeared to tbe laboring classes that capitalists had organized generally to reduce their wage, so the boys concluded if they went down they would drag the manufacturers with them. This is how I account for the landslide. Republicans voted against the party, not on account of the principles, bat to resent dictation from their employers. I remember I saw a leader from Fond du Lac a few days aiterlhe election. He said they had secured a careful registry of the Repub licans in his precinct, and'at 4:30 in the afternoon on election day they had all Toted. His surprise was "great" when he found the Democrats had obtained 35 of their votes. The men went into their booths and deliberately slaughtered their own candidates." DEMOCRAT COHUITIEE HEETIHQS. Dates Tixed for Both the City and County Organizations. Chairman Foley yesterday called a meet ing of the Democratic City Committee for Saturday evening at Democratic headquar ters Diamond and Ross streets. It is in tended to pass a resolution fixing the date of the city primaries on January 7 and con vention on the 9 til. The County Committee has also been called to meet on the first Saturday in Jan uary. Three members of the State Commit tee are to be elected, one from each Sena torial district in the county. There are four districts but Chairman Brennen is ex-officio the fourth member and will go through the form of election. There are several candi dates for each of the vacancies. Pleasures or rolltlcs. A pleasant reminder of the late landslide cnlminated last evening at the Hotel Newell. It grew out of an ante-election dispute between Police Judge Gripp, a Stalwart Republican, and Mr. Herman Ivunkle, a pronounced Cleveland Democrat Of course the former acted as mine host, and all who know the genial Judge need rot be told that he played his part welL The guests, per cgreement made prior to November 8, were equally divided be tween the believers in the two great political parties. . But for all that it was a love feast, without the least seasoning of funereal baked meats. The board was daintily spread by Mr. Newell, and Judge Gripp admirably" acted the part of the willine victim of misplaced confidence in the suffrages ot the nation. All who enjoyed his hospitality last even ing wished hini better luck in future, at the same time feeling secretly clad that his loss was their gain, gourmetically speaking. Betting; on Cleveland's Appointments. Considerable betting is going on as to who will be Mr. Cleveland's appointees in this city. A number of bets have been made that John B. Larkln will be the next postmaster. Yesterdav one confident Demo crat picked out a combination of three can didates which he bet to win. He selected I.arkin for postmaster, John Guffey for col lector of the port and Senator. Harry A Hail, of Elk county, for U. S. District At torney. A rederal Officeholderlteslgns. "W. J. McDonald has resigned his posi tion as Assistant United States District Attorney. Mr. McDonald has been elected to the State Legislature, and will take his tiat at the next session. Under the law he could sot hold both positions. RELIGIOUS EXCITEMENT That Was Never Before Excelled at a Pro tracted Sleeting. Lockport, N. Y., Dec a SpeciaL There is excitement enough in the usually quiet villaje of Newfane nowadays. The Free Methodist Society of Niagara county, is holding a protracted meeting at the vil lage named, a fas miles north of this city. These meetings are attended by hundreds of farmers, who come to the meeting house to tret the "power" and be converted. The 1 greatest excitement prevails during the ses sion, the ministers calling upon all-to come forward and be converted. Yesterday Mrs. George 'Wahle responded to the ministers' summons to come forward, and was soon un der the "influence." In a state of religious frenzy she tore off her ribhons and jewelry and the trimmings on her dress. Other women tore their dresses open in their excitement, and a young girl, Lucr Banker, after her conversion, went out on to the Eighteen-Mile creek bridge, and in the moonlight took herrings and other jew elry off and threw them into the water, say ing, "Now I have cast the devil out of me." It is said farmers are neglecting their work and wives their households in their zeal for the'Master's service. The Free Methodists hold their meetings here every year, but the excitement at the gathering this year eclipses all previous efforts.
