Hence the slg- ilflrance at ached to his following the »ecretar- fhorc. The possibility that he two rrilght arrive at wholly dlffer- conclufiionB excited considerable meftslness among their friends and 5; ;‘8 and as the result many then •xpected, and still expect, a clash be* "ti them eventually. The Pinchot party are reported to ■ f followed the trail of the Fisher fix)m beginning to end In search iCfg which might have been ob tained from the other party by await ing Its return. Both parties took a trip on Control ler Bay, the waterway to Katalla, where the Guggenheim interests ex pended $2,000,000 for a breakwater and other terminal facilities for a rail road from the copper and coal dis tricts, which since has been swept away by a storm. They found the bay very shallowly so much so that a alis^ht ^ Ind almost made the port Impossible of entry. The fact-hunters w^ere land ed at Strawherrj' Point, and conveyed through aloughs in Indian canoes to Katalla. They risked life among the numerous sandbars, on any one of which they might have been wrecked and left to i>erish. Persons familiar with Alaska as the result of personal visits there sa.v both FMsher and Pinchot ought to have been sobered in thought and action, bv their experiences In the great terri tory. It has been pointed out that one of the principal difficulties with Alas kan affairs, so far as Washington is concerned. Is that few of the leading men who have taken a turn at the subject have ever seen the country. The Ballinger-Plnchot episode awoke national mterests in the co.untry it? people and its affairs, and It Is regard ed as extremely unfortunate that at this time especially, w’hen serious ef fort should be imder way toward w'ell- defined policy for the development of the territory’s resources there is like lihood of a break between the two men who are looked to to work out a just and equitable arrangement that w'ould benefit not only the people of Alaska but also those of the I'nited States. If the facts of the case are really all that the situation requires for proper settlement. It has been said there ought to be little difficulty. Both men have been on the ground and are believed to have brought back a great deal of reliable data. How far the re ports agree or disagree is not known, except, i>erhaps. to a few members of the administration and a few close per sonal friends of the secretary and the conservative leader. With the facts once established, and a general policy founded upon them, questions of detail. It Is feared by some, may cause dif ferences of a troublesome nature. If the friends of the two men succeed in their pacific movement. It is agreed that the administration would owe them gratitude, for the president Is said to be uneasy over the situation. Former Congressman Vndei Arrest New York, Nov. 4.—Harry Marcy Coudrey, democratic congressman from the twelfth district of Missouri until the last term, was arrested in this city today by agents of the de partment of justice on an indictment returned against him and eight other officials of the Continental Life' As surance Company and the Internation al Fire Assurance Company, by the St. Louis federal grand jury last Sat-, urday, charging him with uslflg the malls to defraud. He made no pro tests'and said he was willing to go back to St. Louis at once. I^e left shortly aher his arrest in charge of Agent Pignuolo, who made the ar rest. * Coundrey until three weeks ago was thep resident of the Continental Life Assurance Company and the in ternational fire Assurance Company, of St. Louis. An investigation was then started by the government, which resulted in the indictmlent of Coudrey and eight other officials of the two companies and plunged both Into the hands of receivers. Coudrey has been missing since the Indictment and agentfe of the depart ment have been searching the coun try for him. 'He bad been In New Yyk almost‘'Since the investigation started and was stopping at the Pler- pont * hotel in West Thirty-third street. In Next National Convention CHILD KILLED BY ACCIDENT. New Bern, Nov. 4.—A telephore message received here ffom Dover, stated that Reich, the seven-year-old son of Mr. R. A. Richardson, who lives about three miles from that ’ilace, had been killed this afternoon in a very peculiar manner. . , One of Mr. RictiardSbB’s laborers has brought a load of wov>d up to the residence and was throw ing- it over the fence. The lad passed ^by during the time that he was engaged in do ing this and struck on the head by a heavy stick of wood. • Death resulted within half an hour. (By RODERICK CLIFFO^D.K Washington', 'Nov. 4.—Democr£|,tlc politicians have begun to spe^ate on the probai^lty. of a- deadlqok In the national convention next suinmer, and th6 selection" of a “dark hbrse” as the standard bearer of the pt^y for the coming ‘presidential election. This situation 1s brought about by the fact up to the present the cam paign for the nomination has been waged ; practically by . but. two aspi rants for the nomination. They are Governor Wilson, of New Jersey,^ and Gorenor Harmon. • of Ohio. .♦Although a number of other mon have been suggested as good presi dential timber, they have so far ap peared merely as "receptive” can didates, and have been content to let their boom glide along on the current of political gossip. Not so with Wil son and Harmon. , They have established campaign buieaus and have sent their agents Into the field. Not content with this they have taken to the trail. them selves, especially the former head of Princeton University, who has spent a considerable portion of his time, since being placed at the head of af fairs of the commonwealth of Ne^ Jersey, spreading his progressive views throughout the country. The Wilson and Harmon bureaus now are engaged in conducting a vigorous campaign to mold public opinion and sway the leaders of the party to their support. j Especially active is the Wilson bu reau which is located at 42 Broadway, New York city and dally is flooding the mails with documents pointing out the achievements and views of the New Jersey executive. Every morning’s mall carries to newspa pers and party workers extracts frqm other papers throughout the country praising Governor Wilson, and commenting on his prospects for the nomination. Out in Columbus, Ohio, the Harmon bureau is equally active along sim ilar lines. This bureau is going the Wilson headquarters one better and Is sending out Its matter in printed form. It also is supplying the coun try press with “boiler plate” matter so as to save the publishers the cost of composition, as .an additional in ducement for publication. One of the principal efforts of the Wilson followers is directed toward the popularization of the sugges tion that the delegates to the national convention be chosen by direct vote at the primaries. Governor Wllson’8 sampalgn managers' are urging th.^ adoption of this plan - -in the hopfe, it is said, of strengthening their ca^r didates with the rank and flTe of t^je^ party. While they may be accom plishing this. It is hinted on the otber hand, they are bringing their chief into bad repute with the leaders of the party, who are said to look with disfavor on the primary feature, ap its adoption would mean a- lessening of these leaders’ power. The New Jersey governor’s adherents are.anx ious to place his political iottun^s iff. the hands of the privates or the party, for they realize • that Jie is popular with the people,. wJiefftas they fear to have his chances for the nom ination submitted to the conference of the “bosses” who are inclined to frown uiion the governor’s advanced progressive ideas. This stand of the Wilsonltes Is re garded here as but a demonstration of the soundness of the declaration that Harmon is the favorite of the “conservatives” otherwise the “boss es” of the party, and Wilson of the radicals. It also is looked upon as a confession of this wing of the party that the conservatives will prevail. The Wilson men are to have this question settled at the primaries if possible, and before the leaders get together for their conference. As the situation now stands, and this expresses the views of a majority of the leaders of the party, there seems to be little likelihood that the primary plan will be adopted at the meeting of the national democratic committee here on January 8 next, and the weight of opinion appears to be favorable to nominating In the old way. ^ j Should the committee vote down the primary project it Is believed that the Wilson and Harmon dele gates to the convention will be lined up about evenly as to strength, which would mean a stubborn fight and perhaps si, deadlock. This would be the signal for the trotting out of the “dark horses” and the dickering between the factions for an accefMtable;' compromise can didate. In this conn^tlon the name of Senator Champ Clark is mentions as first on the list. Then ttiere aare Folk, Foss and^ Dix who remain In the • background aa>«mQng the sombre colored entries. Mayor Carter Harri son, of Chicago, is said to be in a “receptive” mood and William J. Bryan, the “peerless”' is reported to still have the idea ^ that the nomina tion might perhaps come his way. While Bryan In' his utterances has been silent bn this point, information has come from some of'■his friends with whbmf he has talkfed recently that leads to this' conclusion. His hope is said to be based on the the ory that there will be a deadlock in the convention. His friends do not attempt to explain how he hopes to overcome ' the opposition of the con servative democrats. Meanwhile Champ Clark and his friends are maintaining their . atti tude of silence, and there is no sign o| an active campaign from them. It is declared by politicians that this is sure sign that the speaker* i§- play ing a , waiting game and, grooming himself so as to be in prime condi tion to swing in the lead on the home stretch. It is significant that the Clark men are, not antagonizing eith er the Harmpdi or the _Wilson booms, or saying iinythlng in detraction of either of the candidates. Ratkher they are seeking to make friends in both camps, and for the present at least, are keeping entirely in the middle of the road. This attitude is regarded as significaritr here. , . ; * .
