The Hon. John H. ‘ Loads, of New
Haven, a well-known‘travcllcr, has just
returned from the Orient, having passed
eight months in roan-mic other cast-
ern countries. He said last night: "I
have been in Turkey and Armenia and
found these countries in such a condi-
tion as they have never beenbefore. I
have seen enough to give columns of in.
formation and brought home things that
would make one shudder. But my own
business considerationsand the solemn
obligations I am under make it impos-
sible for me to say a, single word con-
cerning my route or the incidents of the
trip." Mr. Leeds has made thirty or
more trips to the Orient duringhis life.

The attitude of the officials of the
Consolidated railroad toward the rumors
which have been circulated as to the
cause of the gmlual decline of the mar-
ket quotations of the stock of that road,
is similar to that of other holders of that
stock, who do not attempt to account
for it.‘ President Clark has said that
there was no (locusion for alarm on the
part of investors.
Vice-President Hull, when seen by a
New Haven Register reporter, said he
hadnothingto add to what President
Clark had already said concerning the
matter, adding that he had no doubt
that the present rate of dividend would
be continued. President Clark lu\tlic
interview to which Vice-President Han
alluded, said, apropos of the comment
about the disbursements of tho cor’npany
for improvements new in progress and
contolrmlated, that the better-
ments of the property were warranted
by conditions and when they were com-
pleted the earnings of the road would be
increased in proportion to the comment
of years ago when the mad was al-
tmnither unable to handle the business
which canto to it by natural cluninels.
It is believed by conservative ohm-ry-
era that tho uulrket quotations of (ion-
soiiduted smelt have reached the lowest
point, and that the future will see a re-
covory rather than a further decline.

other candidates and their states. Mc-
Kinley will fall from 80 to 100 votes short

capable reserve of available candidates as
it is strong in the candidates offered. No
man fit to‘ be president or receiving the
call of his party could or would resist the
duty to accept the nomination for presi-
icnt." .
Possibly New Names.
“You think that new names may pos-
sibly be considered at St. Louis?”
“That is always supposable, and, in
years of emotional campaigns such as this
has been so for, nearly always inevitable.
it Is a historic fact in American politics
that in tho "culminationcf an enthusiastic
campaign every party from instinct at

tional nomination. -

tion and choose not n‘fsctlonai candi-
date, but one who will draw every Repair

"You think ‘the field,’ as you call it,
will stand out?" was asked.
“i do. I know that McKinley cannot
be nominated without its help. and many
of McKinley/s delegates know it too.
There are more McKinley delegates likely
to break than the delegates in the
field. Enthusiasm and emotion do not
stampede delegates. Besides, enthusiasm
is as often nwarnlng as an assurance. For
instance. the enthusiasm for McKinley
among Republicans and in Republican
papers In good enough, butthc enthusiasm
for him in the Democratic papers is not so
good in itself nor so reassuring to our
party."
“Then you do not believe the story that
the delegates for the favorho sons will
break!” was suggested. .
“No. All the talk about bosses and coer-
cion and unwilling delegates is absurd.
This has been a contest of absolutely free
choice. lf'absoiutcly free choice has been
hindercdcnywherc, it has been in Ohio,
and If there are any reluctant delegates
who will vote against their own personal
choice and indgmcnt it will be is dele-
gsm in Ohio. in no other state has there
been an annular! ,sttenlpt to coerce dole
gates with tats pride or state power."
"Genera Hatriscn's name was I'll’flr
tinned by you as being in the available
field of candidates. Do you really think
so?"
" Yos. Every man fit to be president
and who is a good Republican is always
available to his party, and llsrrlson is a
good Republican and naminslvo to party
dilly," rctorted Mr. Clark-on.
‘ Certainty ls ltonnudsd.
"What the people demand this your in
Republican candidate upd platform is cer-
tainly. in one respect llnrrlson would
give the cdril'ss't certainty of day one Who
could be nominated, for thcdny he should
be nominated theocuntry would know or-
actly what his policy would be on thrill
and usually what it would be on finance,
and this would quickly bring confidence

ntos practically all the contested votes, of
which there will be 100 or more. The pub-
lic should be trusted candidly and given
figures that are socums, and the contest-

will this evening formally open the nu-
tlonal exposition of electrical appliances
in the Industrial Arts building, in this
city. Elaborate preparation has been made
for this event, and it is expected that the
attendance will be large and include some
of the most distinguished electricians in
this country.
The convention is that of the National
Electric Light association, to which delc~
gates have been sent representing more
than lb,00tl electric lighting plants in the
United States. whose aggregate capital is
in excess of "50,000,000. _
The principal feature of the opening ex<
cruises will be the turning on of a current
of electricity generated by the waters of
the Niagara river in the “rent power house
of the Niagara Powsr company, which cur-
rent of electricity will be transmitted over

line ls such that no considerable amount
of electrical energy for power purposes
can be transmitted, but by the use of the
recently invented two phase Tesla system
enough energy will be translulttcd to es-
tablish beyond question, it is claimed, the
fcnslliblty of long distance eloctri power
transmission upon _n commercla basis.
This line will be 462 miles in length. The
