Carey, of Portland, for governor. This is put up as conjecture by watchers of local politics, and it Is not asserted definitely that Carey Is a pronounced candidate for that office. The convention adjourned without naming city and county candidates, and between now and March 27 there will be an effort to adjust the differ ences between the two factions of the party. It Is said by one who is in touch with the situation, that it is likely thaf tho Simon people will re ceive a portion of the offices, as a balm for their sorely wounded reel ings, and to avoid n permanent split in lui. local tanks. It is known that tho Multnomnh county convention's action is not In imical to the interests of, W. J. Fur nish, in so far ns determined results are concerned. The mention of Carey may or may not be by consent of him. Should this develop ns the determined program, however, it "might mean that 11, W.

One thing seems to bo finally decid ed, a tul that io that tho Simon people will receive anything, if anything, merely virtue of the generosity of tho independents. The convention was unquestionably anti-Simon, and his power as a political boss appears for the time to have been broken. Fitxsimmons-Jeffries Fight to Be With That Club. Now York, March 20.
