THIRD TERM GOSSIP.
An Interesting Lead Followed Out by
a Correspondent.
AS THE MATTER STANDS NOW
Holland Reiterates His Statement That
There Is 3 Well Defined Movement
to Renominate Mr. Cleveland
on a Gold Platform.
NEW YORK, Aug. 15.—Holland, the
usually well informed correspondent of
the Philadelphia Press, sends the follow-
ing to his paper: Until Mr. Whitney in-
timated that there might be, after all,
some justification for the suggestion of a
fourth nomination of Mr. Cleveland many
persons looked upon the third term talk
as the merest midsummer chatter, in-
dulged in for want of better topics. But
when Mr. Whitney hints that it is possible
that emergencies or commanding political
considerations might compel the overlook-
ing of traditions and the placing of Mr.
Cleveland again before the country as the
presidential candidate the doubters begin
to realize that there may be, after all,
serious impulse behind thistalk.
. It was interesting to hear the third
term suggestion interjected into the ex-
citement occasioned by the reorganization .
of Tammany Hall. The question was put
by this or that Tammany man to his
friends, “Are they working for a third
term for Cleveland?” so many times as to
indicate that this gossip is not mere chat-
ter, but is based upon substantial al-
though, so far as we can discover, some-
what mysterious purpose. The third
term suggestion is, however, not a sudden
topic of the midsummer season. The first
important news in regard to it was
brought to this city last winter by ex-
Judge Ray, who had served for many
years upon the supreme bench of Indiana,
even at the time when Benjamin Harri~
son was reporter of that court. Judge
Bay had spent several months in Wash-
ington on-private business. No longer a
' olitician, ’he still. retains many warm
riends who are active in politics, and
who, knowing that he has only the inter-
est of a locker on, have felt free to give
him inside information.
Judge Ray's Statement.
Judge Ray reported to his friends here,
after he returned from Washington, that
he had the best of reasons for believing
that a group of men in Washington were
in correspondence with those in whom
they trusted elsewhere, with the intention
of beginning the politics which would
compel the fourth nomination of Mr.
Cleveland. The judge was unable to say
whether the president himself was aware
of these consultations and correspond-
ences. If he were not, it was because
some of those who were engaged in the
scheming and‘who are at the same time
very cordially received at the White House
deemed it prudent that Mr. Cleveland
should not know of this purpose then.
The plan, as nearly as Judge Bay was
able to understand it, was a campaign of
correspondnce, followed by careful sugges-
tions that the financial condition of the
country—in fact, the credit of the nation
and the demoralization of the Democratic
party and the apparent inability of its
leaders to agree upon any presidential can-
didate—might create a condition of things
which would cause it to be deemed best
that Mr. Cleveland should again be
named. It was proposed to cultivate the
notion that no other man could command
a nomination from the Democratic party;
that if this or that man prominent in the
west or south were named the eastern
Democrats would look upon his candidacy
with coldness, and if, upon the other hand,
one of the two or three conspicuous Dem-
ocrats of the east were named the western
and southern Democracy would not give
him cordial support, and the Populists
would thereby be the gainers. .
This was the first information of a def-
inite kind received here respecting a third
term purpose. Curiously enough, within
a. week after Judge Ray brought this in-
fOrmation to the city there came an un-
expected confirmation. It should be said
that Judge Ray had no expectation that
the report that he gave to his friends
Would be made public.
The Pot Begin's to Boll.
It was either upon the day of the publi-
cation of that report or a day or two later
that a certain prominent member of the
Reform club of this city received a letter
from a member of the president's cabinet,
Secretary Morton. This letter contained
an inclosure which was a copy of a letter
written by a prominent Cleveland Demo-
crat of the west, a politician who is be-
lieved to have been in correspondence with .
the little Washington group which had
the third term in view. That letter con-
tained, as strongly as it was politic to do,
a suggestion for a third term, and its con-
nts were warmly commended to the no-
tice of the Reform club of this city by
Secretary Morton.
That was bringing the third term sug-
estion pretty close to the inner adminis-
aticn circles. The letter was passed
around in the Reform club, but did not
evoke the enthusiasm which perhaps Seo-
retary Morton expected would be the case.
To many of the members of that club the
idea of a third term was very repugnant.
Some of the members expressed no opin-
ion. A-few were bold enough to say that
it might be, after all, necessary for the
redit of the country that Mr. Cleveland
should again be placed in nomination.
This attempt to influence the Reform
club was almost coincident with the be-
ginning of the silver excitement in the
WeSt, and when Mr. Cleveland indicated
that he was an extreme gold monometale
list he regained something of the favor in
the Reform club. which he had lost during
the 1‘ tariff battles in congress. In a few
days‘it“was reported in the club that the
president stood squarely upon the plat-
form which th club had made for itself
after a long discussion of the financial
question. ,
Therefore thethird term sentiment be-
gun to grow a little in the club, because
it was believed that no other man avail.
able" t9 the Democrgcy would stand upon

that financial platfofm, and becausethe
Reformclub professes to be of opinion
that the credit of the country and its
financial prosperity will depend upon the
adoption of a policy such as that indicated.
The Possible Effect.
How far the seeds may promise harvest
inother parts of the country of course we
hlle cannot tell. Seine of those who have
given thought ’39 the matter still think
that there will be a determined effort to
nominate Mr. Cleveland independently of
the Democratic party unless that party
comes to his and the Reform club’s plat-
form on the financial question.
Unless there is a swift and revolution-
ary change of sentiment among the Demo-
cratic leaders and the Democratic masses
in this state the plans of these secret
schemers will count for naught if New
York Democracy can prevent it. I have
yet to hear one Democrat of prominence
speak in any other way than vexation
when the proposition to nominate Mr.
Cleveland again is mentioned. Mr. Whit-
ney speaks of the great popularity which
the president possesses, believing that it is
more extensive and abiding perhaps today
than ever, but Mr. Whitney is mistaken in
that estimate, at least so far as New York
city is concerned. In some parts of the
state no doubt the president still main-
served him always with the single excep-
tion of 1888, but he does not maintain it
here.
How is it possible to give Mr. Cleveland
the votes of the delegates from New York
state to the next national convention?
The federal officeholders are powerless.
The collector of the port of New York has
seen his office shorn of that political power
which since J ackson’s day has been so po-
tent in this state. The state organization
cannot be controlled by Mr. Cleveland.
PoWerful as Mr. Whitney is, easy as it
would probably be for him to command
that organization for himself, he would be
impotent if he were to attempt so to use it
as to represent to tho ccuntry that in Mr.
Cleveland’s own state the political and
national emergencies are looked upon as so
desperate as to make the rcnomination of
Mr. Cleveland a matter of necessity.
A Plan \Vith a Purpose.
This is the third term situation here so
far as it has developed. It is recognized
not as the chatter of gossipers, but as
having formal purpose behind it, whose
purpose We do not know. Some of the
politicians believe that the purpose could
not be maintained an instant were it not
for the suspicion that the president him-
self is ready to test the power of his in-
fluence with the American people. Oth-
ers assert that he watches, listens, con-
templates, no man knowing or even hav-
ing reason to infer what thoughts are in
his mind. Here the most common sug-
gestion made by those who hear this third
term talk is, “The suggestion would be
impracticable if there were any other Dem-
ocrats to whom the party could turn.”
Some of the Democratic leaders believe
that we shall see before many weeks have
passed more impressive third term dem-
onstrations than any that have been made.
Ex-Maycr Grace has gone to the White
mountains with the impression that when
he returns he will find the third term plan
exposed, so that those who are taking part
in it will be revealed to the country.

INOTHEIISTRIIIEISON
Thousands of Pants and Jacket Mak-
ers Go Out In New York.
NUMBER "MAY REACH 20,000.
Some of the Employers Kaye Already Sub-
mitted, and Others Are, Expected to
Follow Suit—The Vestmakerl
May Also Strike ' Soon.
NEW YORK, Aug.15.-——About 9,000 gar-
ment makers, who declared a strike for
higher wages and better hours, held meet-
ings today at their various headquarters
on the east side, and it was evident that
the number would be swelled by several
thousand more within the next few days.
It is expected that at least 20,000 men,
women and girls will go out during the
’ week.
The men who are out on strike are mem-
bers of the Children’s Jacket Makers’ Lo-
cal assembly, N o. 155, K. of L., and
Pantsmakers’ Local assembly, No. 825,
K. of L. The leaders said today that they
were confident of winning because of the
success of the recent tailors’ strike, which
was fought on the same lines. The strike
also affects about 2,000 women and girls,
who are temporarily thrown out of em-
ployment. '
The children’s jacket makers demand
that the bosses sign the 01d agreement for
59 hours to constitute a. week’s work and
the pay to range on a scale of from $6 to
$16 a week, according to the kind of work
done.
Reports read at some of the meetings
today showed that already about 1,000 of
the jacket makers had gained their de-
mands. Other contractors are expected
to sign the new agreement.
Both unions held mass meetings. New
Irving hall was packed to its utmost ca-
pacity. There was great excitement when
the question was put to the jacket makers
as'to whether they should go out. Cries
of “Strike! Strike!” were heard on every
hand. The decision was rca ied within
a half hour after the opening of the meet-
ing. When the question was carried, there
was great cheering.
Sixty Contractors Weaken.
It took the pantsmakers a longer time
to arrive at a decision, but the result was
the same and the excitement just as in-
tense as that displayed by the jacket mak-
ers.
Out of 250 contractors "only 60 have
given in to the pantsmakcrs. They em-
ploy 1,000 men.
There were between 2,500 and 3,000
jacket makers out today, leaving out the
1,000 or so who have won their demands.
The latter are employed by 92 contractors,
and took a holiday today to celebrate the
victory.
Contractors today also got new agree-
ments from girls who belong to Local As-
sembly No. 1,058, K. of L. They are vest-
makers.
At their headquarters, 120 Columbia
street, the vestmakers decided to give
contractors three days in which to sign
the agreement. If the documents are not
signed at the expiration of the alloted
time, a general strike, affecting about
3, 000 persons, will be ordered.
The new agreement calls for 59 hours
aweek and provides for an advance in
wages of from 20 to 25 per cent, according
to the kind of work performed.
All day the east side was in’ a state of
excitement. Crowds of strikers walked
up and down the streets. Labor agitators
were busy addressing small sidewalk au-
diences, and altogether the police were
kept busy trying to preserve order. There
are some 2,500 pantsmakers and nearly
4,000 unorganized workmen who have
been forced out of employment by the
strike. Men and women are joining the
strikers each hour.
Coat and Shirt Makers Too.
The coatmakers and shirtmakcrs will
probably go out in the course of a week or
two, which will swell the number of strik-
ers to fully 20,000.
The strikers are following much the
same system in fighting the contractors
as the Brotherhood of Tailors. The pants-
makers have made their headquarters at
Congress hall, 226 Stanton street.
The executive committee will meet
there to conduct the routine business of
the strike. .
Henry Hirsh, the business agent of the
union, said: ‘
“I believe that we will win the strike in
less than a week. We have already ap-
pointed a settlement committee, which
will meet at 226 Stanton street and sign
with the contractors who wish to, renew
the old agreement. The men who are em-
ployed in the 25 shops which have already
settled will go back to work tomorrow.
We do not recognize any contractors’ asso-
ciation or any of the shops which are run
by nonunion workmen."
The Children’s Jacket Makers’ union
will also follow the plan of the Brother-
hood of Tailors in dealing With the strik-
ers. A settlement committee met today
to sign contracts at 71 Suffolk street. The
union has also secured Liberty hall, 257-
261 East Houston street, for holding mass
meetings. '
A Family’s Narrow Escape.
GENESEO, N. Y., Aug. 15.—Fire was
discovered in the large house and barns on
the farm of James Warner today. The
family escaped by jumping from a second
story window. The house was partially
burned down, while the barns, which con-
tained three horses, .grain and farm im-
plements, were totally destroyed. Loss,
$15, 000. -
