Associated Press Dispatches.
Salem, Oot. 3. (Correspondence of the Telegram.) So far as
ascertained the senatorial proposition remains unchanged. A leading
member of the house yesterday stated that Mr. Simon would not be
considered aa a candidate unless all efforts to elect Mr. Coibett failed.
Continuing, he said:
"I am of the opinion that any effort on the part of the oppobition to
defeat Mr. Corbett will only add to his strength, aud as it now stands
his chances are far ahead of those of any other candidate. My personal
belief has nothing to do with what I can see is a fact.
"The ouly possible chance for those who oppose Mr. Corbett
would be to consolidate on a silver man, and this, I think, an impossi
bility, so far as the members eleoted on the gold-standard platform are
concerned."
Unless your correspondent is misinformed the statement that Hon.
Harrison R. Kincaid wilV be the union candidate for Unites States sen
ator is erroneous, and only founded on rumors. In fact, leading silver
men positively deny that Mr. Kincaid will be their candidate, and
further state that no action on this question has as yet been taken by
the members elected on the silver ticket.

Chaplain Bateman Tells of the Sixteenth
Regiment and Its Deeds.
8pokesrn8 n-Review.
Cotjbb d'Alenb, Sept. 27. Chaplain
0. C. tiatnman, wbo went with the Six
teenth infantry to Cuba, and saw much
of the war with Spain, returned to Fort
Sherman on Saturday last, looking de
cidedly thin in flesh aa a result of bis
arduous labors iu the field, on trans
ports and in the general hospital at
Wikoff. He has returned for duty at
Sherman and not on sick leave, and is
therefore permanently among bis many
friends here, rovioh to their expressed
delight. Chaplain Bateman has brought
bank with him many valuable souvenirs
of the campaign in Cuba. Among these
area lot of fine photographic views; a
handful of valuable Spanish coins of
gold, oopper and silver; a sword and
haggle which saw service in the defenses
of Santiago; a sailor's cutlass taken
from the wreck of Ihe Cristobal Colon ; a
oane of Cuban acacia; a maohete pur
chased from a Spanish major; a silver
badge given to a Spanish private soldier
for bravery on San Juan hill, and a
small Spanish nag; not to mention
several other artioles of lesser value.
Asked oonoerning the Spanish people
as compared to the Oabans, the ohap
lain bluntly deolared that "we should
have sent on army down to Oaba to help
tbe Spauish oonqaer the Cubans. The
Spauish are the deoent people of Cuba."
:Ashed if It was not the treatment tbe
Cubans bad reoeived which made them
what they are, he replied with an em
phatic "No, sir! It is the breed and
tbe breed is as bad aa it oan be. There
aro from 60,000 to 100,000 Cabana wbo
are now and have been in sympathy with
Spain.' These have been treated as well
as Spain treats her soldiers; these have
supplied the volunteers, the guerrillas
who have fought tbe insurgents so long
and well. These people are off tbe tame
piece, and thoroughly bad. Tbe typical
Cuban is a desoendeot ot negro crimi
nals, slaves and Spanish pirates.
"I taw Cubana eating oat hardtack
and bacon at Siboney whom I atterwarda
saw brought in at wounded Spanish
guerrillas the Cuban in the tervice of
Spain and tbe Cuban in the tervioe ot
tbe United Statbi In thit glorioot war of
humanity coold exchange places with
Oaroia't noble bravet and nobody be the
witer. I tm Dot able to prove this, bat
I know it to be to, against all dispute or
denialt, and I shall continue to assert it
to. tbe end.
"I cared for wonnded Spaniard! and
guerrillas when they were brought into
oar hospitals, and my ability to reoall
names and facet I believe to be above
the average The edaoated Cubana are
for the most part oitiexut ot tbe United
States, at are the Oarciaa aud members
ot the Cuban junta (pronounced 'bunta')
o New York.
"These men are politioiaot wbo txpeot
to leap into power over the headt ot tba
mlttrablt common people of tbe island.
I think these Cuban politioiaot are likely
to give tba United State trouble belor
tbia question it tettled. Tbey hope
totuehow to rid tbe itland of tba property
holding Spaniards and gtin potseeslon
ol tba estate! wblcb tlnct tba disoovery
