Back Of all these surface proceedings was
ths QUESTION ~ 70 vhses Pennsylvania will
go aftAs leaving HsrzaAft. IL y one which
cannot be answered. Although al the
know for whom os how they WIN vote until
they oancus Ae Ondnnatl. Tonight, ~
Last night, there arc assertions Of unAlter-
able 6delity 70 HArtrsnft, but confessions,
en- CLOSE Questioning, that he has no
chance. On the second choice the delega-
ton may 20 for Blaine and Hayes, but
without the slightest chance Of determining
which u tho favorite and will secure the
vote OF the Stats, under tho unit rule.
There is bitter feeling egainst Blaine dis
played by some who will have snuaething to
do with controlling the delegation at Gin
cinnati, and no warm feeling for Hayes
anywhere, but sort OF general, indistinct
feeling to take him for want of something
better. Pennsylvania, 1t Cincinnati, is to
be oonundrum, and anxious iDquirors are
referred TO Don Cameron for IN answer.
OHIO FOE nAyzs--rnsN BaIsTow.
Ex-senator Wade, one Of the delegates
1t large ia said to be for Morton. The 9TH
ef three, Ex-Governor Moves, J. W. Refer,
and W. H. Upson, are pronounced Hayes
men, though a. to second choice, Noyss
and Keifsr would 60 for Bristow, while Up
con, being from ths Western Reserve,
| would probably salTDost Blaine. II is ut
terly impossibss TO say with any desrse OF
accuracy what tile second choice Of the dis
trict delegates 10 Cincinnati 10. They are
all for Hayes, but extremely reticeDt about
naming their second choice. 1t may be
safely said, however. that il the National
Convention were to be next week, and
Hayes ont Of the race. large majority OF
the Ohio delegation would vote for Bris-
tow.
vERMoNr's CHOICE NOT KNOWN.
Though . majority Of the convention
were doubtless for Blaine, the delegates
were selected without reference to their
delegation, IL understood to be opposed to
Blaine. To the others either Blaine or
Bristow would he acceptable.
