There was much discussion during the flay of the possibility of the nom ination going again to Vice President Fairbanks.

Yes, even to be among the first to do for other nation aiso In their calam ity this is the Wt evidence of our nation's growth and greatness. But we have a special and justifiable pride in the success and development of the South. Forty-five years ago a heavy burden had to be borne by the men of the Mouth.

There was to have been a ca'uens of the dcicga lion at 10 o'clock to-morrow morn Ing, but to-nlht It wfas postponed, on the theory that the committees on credentials and resolutions would probably consume much time, and there was therefore no need of haste In taking formal action. The main purpose of the caucus was said to bo to poll the delegation on both Hughes and Sherman propositions. A telegram from Boston received to-ilav announced Governor Guild's determination to remain In the race, notwithstanding the reported defec tion In the Massachusetts delegation. It was stated here that an effort would be made to throw the full vote of the delegation for Governor Guild when th" roll of the States was call ed and carry out his wishes.
