"Harrlsburg Aug. IT. The center of
(political interest In the state during
the past week has been located In
ITiIladtlphlu. The sensation of the
rjreek was the declaration of the Busl
ine na Men's League In favor of Major
ievl U. McCaulcy for auditor general
ADd their fullure to endorse James S.
lUeactwi, of Westmoreland, for state
t treasurer. Mr. licucom's nume was not
mentioned in the resolutions. At
'.lie same time the league warned the
rttacty bosses of the necessity of put
ting up a utrong man for the position
if xlate treasurer.
"This uctlon of the leacue is In full
ncnord with the expectation of their
-lends throughout the state. The
Attempt was niude subsequently, by
.the hostile newspapers of Philadelphia
and the slat", to muke it apear that
Uie mectitiK of the executive commlt
itte of the league at the Philadelphia
leadiiuurtiTs on Thursday last was
-imposed of but two or three men, and
''.hut their action counted for abso
lutely nothing.
tjimy OrirmiH Frlirh toned.
"J'hnt this was alisolutely false was
rihown a duy or so after by the fright
ened declaration of several of these
samf newspapers that there was ne
cessity for the "combiners" and "antl--'oinbltiers"
of Philadelphia to get to
gether, inaeinuch as the activity of the
Business Men's league might prove
ulajnufc'InK luter on.
The meeting of the executive com
..nlttee was uttendefl by every member
;f the committee, members coming
tfrom all parts of the state. The action
taken represented the consensus of
iptnion of the league. The call of the
.-frightened Quay organs for all wings
i! the party to get together was owing
to the well known fact that a clear
.-ount of the noses In the state shows
rvhat Mr. Peaoom has not got enough
delegates to assure hlm the nomlna
ition. Another reason Is that there Is
.n ugly flpht on In Philadelphia
Against the Quay slated candidate for
:rty treasurer. J. Hampton Moore, the
.iwesent chief clerk In the office of the
-city treasurer, Is a candidate against
Cuionel Clayton McMlchael, and while
I'.t ls not likely that he will win, he Is
.11 a position to give the other candi
dates a great deal of trouble.

At the leugue meeting on Thursday
:.a declaration was made which Is of In

rilnn to Fight Boacom.
Senator Fllnn. of Allegheny, openly
declared his hostility to Mr. Beacom
In a published Interview, saying:
"Under no circumstances will Beacom
get the votes of the Allegheny county
delegation In the state convention, and
this In Itself shows conclusively that be
will be opposed. The sentiment of our
people Is strongly against Beacom. and
we do not propose to sit In the con
vention and waste our votes. We will
have a candidate to vote for In ample
time, and feel that we will get plenty
of supporters."
"Who will your friends support?"
Senator Fllnn was asked.
"l'p until the present time," he re
plied, "we have not decided upon any
one. The Municipal League of Pitts
burg is actively pushing W. R. Thomp
son, a prominent banker, and It Is Just
possible that we may also turn in and
support him In the convention. This,
at least, Is the wav our friends feel
about the matter Just now."
"Will the delegates elected by the
Business Men's League be found vot
ing with your friends In the conven
Hon?"
"It Is more than probable that they
will, although we have not received any
definite information to make us think
so. I think, however, that they would
Join hands with us in order to at least
Increase their standing In the conven
tlon. To my mind there Is not the least
doubt but that the refusal of the busl
ness men to indorse Beacom win have
a serious effect on his election, if nomi
nated."
Itenconi lu ( rent Dimitcr.
While the nomination of Jatnes . S.
Beacom Is possible, it Is by no means
an assured fact. The bosses, from
Senator Quay down, are greatly wor
rled over the situation. The state con
vention, which will meet on the 26th,
may be the scene of some lively dem
onstrations. Mr. Beacom stands con
fessedly the representative of boss
domination in Republican politics, as
the personal candidate of Senator
Quay. This fact alone will cause his
defeat In the convention, If he is de
feated. His ownership by Senator
Quay will be his downfall.

The gravity of the situation with ref
erence to the state treasuryshlp and the
xmssibllity of forcing the bosses to
withdraw Mr. Beacom was generally
smcoxnlzed In the Philadelphia news-
oapers of Saturday. In a column ar
