Senator from Delaware. In advocat-
ing the choice of Mr. Causey to the

ald’? says: “He has been active in
his party in storm and sunshine. We
believe him eminently sincere and
conservative in his politics. On the
question so thoroughly canvassed dur-
ing the late campaign, though he sup-
ported the Chicago candidate, and
piatform, he is a moderate bimetal-
list and believes it right, that there
should be silver currency adopted by
the international agreement, but also
believes that if adopted by the United
States the other leading nations of the
world will very soon accede to it. His
speech at the late Democratic Con-
vention in seconding the nomination
of the present Governor-elect did him
great credit. He is a member of the

PENNSYLVANIA'S HOPES,
Reasons for Good Feelings about the
Intercollegiate Cup.
[The Pennsylvanian.]
The long-expected covered track for
winter track work on Franklin Field
is now being used every day by the
sprinters, hurdles and broad jumpers,
under Trainer Murphy’s directions.
To accommodate the jumpers and
pole-vaulters a jumping platform has
been built and the platform covered
ever with saw-dust, which will pre-
vent jarring and gore feet. The od
jumpers are now practicing, and sev-
eral new men have begun work in this
event as well as in the pole-vault.
_ Particular attention is being paid to
developing some men in the hurdles, as
this has always been Pennsylvania’s
weakest event. Captain Winsor, Les-
lie,
over the hurdles every day.
Judd, who on account of illness was
unable to compete last year, will be
out this week and will greatly
strengthen the sprinters, who are
Hoffman, Hillary and Blackburn.
The distance events this year are
better represented ‘than ever before.
Orton, Grant, Jarvis (who, however,
is not eligible for the intercollegiate),
Mechling, Shengle and Steele, should
make a distance team second to none,
and will certainly prove a big factor
in the Mott Haven games.
Sichel, Shengle, Lane, Quicksall and
Price should all do well in the middle
distances. Of these, the first three
will undoubtedly make very fast time
this year, Sichel in the quarter and
Lane in the half-mile.
The mile walk will bring out plenty
of men, but they all need a great
deal of improvement before they can
figure in the big races. Thornton,
Worth, Price, Bell, McMichael and
HMetterman are the most promising
candidates.
Inthe bicycle races, Pennsylvania is
strongest in her tandem teams, but
has @ very good opportunity with the
others too, if they fully develop their
capabilities. At present Columbia has
by far the best prospects in this event.
The prospects in the weight events
are brighter than ever. Wiley Wood-
ruff has improved greatly in throw-
ing the hammer and is regarded as
the most likely winner in that event
in the intercollegiates. Outland,
Wentz, McDevitt, Dean, Overfield and
McCracken are all promising men.
Trainer Murphy, when seen on Sat-
-urday, said that there was no reason
why Pennsylvania’s team this year
‘should not surpass all previous ones.
. The material is plenty and excellent
and all that remains to: put
it. «into
the best possible shape.
