Jan, 4 The Indi cations are now that the fight tor the, state committee will be the hardest ir the" his tory of the party In Indiana unless. Senator Fleming, ot Port Wayne, withdraws, as candidate for the chair roahshlu. It Is believed that Fleming baa fully made up bis mind to beconfeVl. chairman, and It was reported to day that, lie haa. the backing of James1 Mtirdock, of lAfayettej Hugh Dougti orty, of.

J31u(fton; O. V. Menilea, of Mt. Vernon, and Samuel Moras, ot Indianapolis. These men were delegates at large to the uaflontt convention atiiKanaaS City and were known theje aa the ''Indiana Big four' aa mey were prominent in me enuni hare mention of the JS to 1 doctrine cut out ot the platform.

They have been a dominating factor In Indiana polltrca for a number ot years, and It iinftnratinHlnv that thkT tra rie tetmlned to place Fleming at tho head ortbe organltatlon. "Mtirdock. however. Is regarded aa chlet proonAer of Fleming's boom, and if Id said that Dougherty la his Bret lieutenant. It Is generally believed that "Dougherty could have had the place" tfnisjjlt If he had 'dot refused to accept, and It la understood that his friendship for Fleming led tlm to in duce W.

II. Blchhorn. of Bluffton, to bC(Jme a candidate or chairman of the Eighth district. It is expiainea that Blchhorn was defeated because Of reports that he would vote for Fleming for stat chairman. It Is explained that Benator of Jeffenonvtlle, would probably have been elected In the Third had It not been reported that he wbuld tote for Fleming.

The opponents of Fleming point to the de feat Of Blchhorn and Fortune as evi dence of the sentiment against hftn. but while they are preparing to make a determined fight to prevent his election, they realise that, with the Illg Four" behind him. Fleming win prove hard to beat Panning Venus Fleming. 'New developments make it seem that, the opponents of Fleming will center on Joseph T. Fanning, now chairman ot this district, for state chairman.

It Is understood that some tBe torn thnteemetfwhcTdU not want Fleming, have come forward for Fan njag 'abdvjthe latter is how, regarded aa one of the leading candidates. The report that Taggnrt has pledRed him self to support Fleming was denied today by the men who aro booming Fanning, but It was also that Taggart had agreed to stand, for Fleming add that he did not decide to retire as chairman of this district until he found that he could not keep his promise Without offending mairj party It waa In order to get out of an embarrassing "Situation. It Is bald, that he refused to accept' the position. It Is understood, that Mores was counting op Taggart's remaining steadfast, to Fleming, and, that he knew nothing of the movement to elec, Fanning district, chairman until Taggart placed him In nomination. The'reporta are nbw conflicting as to, whom Taggart will support If no other names besides Ihose'of Fleming and.

Fanning are presented. John W. Kern, Frank B. Burke, Joe Bell and others ot this city are making an open canvass for Fanning. They do not figure on Fleming's having more than tTrVftToteg frf Bjny tmrandthertttInK 4 that Fanning ran muster at least seven re majority off the committeemen.
