MAY GO ON THE STUMP Ex-Secreary of the Navy Hus Presi dentin] Timber, Says His Fonner Chief—Predicts Hi. Success in the Fight for Mayor. ‘ New York, Oct. 1.—Ex-President Harrison in an interview announced that he looked upon Gen. Benjamin F. Tracy as a probable Presidential can- didate. He also predicted the success of the ex-Secretary of the Navy in the fight for the Mayoralty. - In discussing the Mayoralty fight, Gen. Harrison said that there was a strong personal feeling towards Gen. Tracy, he having been intimately as- sociated with him for years. “When he was my Secretary of the Navy we were in conference constant- ly, and I have the highest esteem for his ability and character. He would make good Presidential timber. “I have been up the State pulling stumps all Summer. and I think I have 2 made my last“ political speech." May Stump for Tracy. “W‘ould‘ you go on the stump for Gen. Tracy if he asked you?” "I don’t think he will ask me,” Gen. Harrison replied. smiling. “Wait until he does. “I shall remain here about ten days. Mrs. Harrison has shopping to do. “The whole country is interested in this big municipal election, and it will ; undoubtedly have its effect on national politics. “I think Gen. Tracy’s prospects are excellent. I think it would be a dis— grace to see the greater city throttled by Tammany Hall as the lesser was for so many years." I'latt “’ants Boss McKanc Out. New York, Oct. 1.—The friends of John Y. McKane in the old county towns of Kings are making very deter- mined efforts to bring about his release, and have succeeded in obtain— ing promise of assistance from Senator Platt and his associate leaders of the Republican party in their efforts. In speaking of the matter, Senator T. C. Platt said: “The case of John Y. Mc- Kane has been brought to my attention by several persons interested in his pardon. I think he is more sinned against than sinning. He has been punished sufficiently. In my opinion his sentence was excessive, and I would have no hesitation in publicly saying that the ends of justice have been suf- ficiently subserved by what he has suf- fered, and especially in View of the con- dition of his family and his failing health.” ’ Big Steamship After the Record.

Minister Vloodi’ord Has Not Com- municated with \Vashington. \Vhich Is Regarded as Strange— Lonqlon Vieyvs of the Crisis. Madrid, Spain, Oct. 1.——As a result of the interviews which Gen. Azcarraga, the retiring Premier, and Gen. Polavieja have had with the Queen Regent, her Majesty has become convinced that it is impossible to reunite the conserva- tives in order to format strong Min- istry. Therefore, she has accepted the resignations of the Ministers. The opinion is general that Senor Sagasta, the liberal leader, will suc- ceed Gen. Azcarraga. Many of the Prefects, under secretaries and direc- tors-general of the department have also resigned. , The Solution of the Crisis. London, Eng., Oct. 1.-—A dispatch to the Daily Mail from Madrid says: “The solution of the crisis depends upon the policy to be adopted towards the United States. Liberal politicians declare that they will stoutly resist America’s pretentious. “Gen. Azcarraga, in a long interview with the Queen Regent, explained the situation. It is believed that he asked her Majesty if she was ready to con— firm the government in necessary powers in View of the attitude of the United States. After the interview he summoned the Cabinet, which was at— tended by Senor Reverter, the ex-com— municated Minister of Finance, and Senor Cos—Gayon, Minister of the In- terior, both of whom tendered their resignations. Shortly afterward the Premier tendered the resignations of the entire Cabinet.” Overtures from the Cubans. London. Eng, Oct. 1.—A special dis- patch from Madrid says that a rumor prevails there to the effect that an im- portant communication has been re- ceived by the Spanish Government from the leaders of the Cuban in- surgents, suggesting the basis of a possible settlement of the Cuban diffi- culties. No Word from Gen. \Voodt‘orfl. I’Vashington, D. C., Oct. 1.—The State f Department has not heard officially o the resignation of the Spanish Cabinet. Gen. Woodford, the American Minister 5 - ' , h t c bled to th> Secre- Down quilts and soft, cosy blankets at Madnd as no a L tary of State any information, nor has he even notified the department of a. change in the Ministry. This silence on the part of the American Minister is considered somewhat strange at the department, but it is thought that he has some good reason for not notifying the government. Diplomats familiar with Spanish af— fairs say the present conditions point to one of two results, namely, the com— plete collapse of the conservative regime, which has been responsible for the Cuban policy, and its succession by a liberal Cabinet, with pacific and con- ciliatory tendencies towards Cuba, or else a transition Ministry, -with Azcar— raga again at the head as a temporary expedient to tide over affairs until the Cortes can meet and a permanent and stable ministry be formed. Officials\be- Ileve that a complete change of Min- Isters and political parties, with Bagasta as the new leader, Is the more probable. In that case, it is said, Senor Moret probably would become Minister of Foreign Affairs. Moret is best re- membered in the United States from the fact that he was the first to recog- nize the Mom claim, presented by the United States. It made him a target for criticism in Spain, but he was ul- timately justified by his political op- ponents, when they paid the claim after the energetic demands made by Secretary Olney. BOSTONS ARE CHAMPIONS. They Will Again front Brooklyn, and the Baltiniores The Bostons have won the National League’s championship pennant. They once more defeated the Brooklyns yes- terday, and as the VVashingtons, with Mercer in the box, easily disposed of the Baltimores, Selee’s men became the king—pin ball club. It is impossible now for the Baltimores to catch the Hub players, for if the latter should lose their remaining game to Brooklyn, while the Orioles win to—day and to- morrow from the Washingtons, the final standing would be: Boston, 93 victories, l9 defeats, .705 per cent; Baltimore, 91 victories, 39 defeats, .700 per cent. The Lone. ,Washingtons have passed the Brook- lyns, but if these teams lose all of their remaining games they will be tied for sixth place. The New Yorks won a close game from the Philadelphias.
