CAMERON AND BLAINE.
What Some People Say about BInine's
Chances and Cameron's Course.

WASHINGTON, May 25.-For some reason
or another the friends of Simon Cameron are
industriously circulating the story to-day that
his son, Don Cameron, has not yet concluded to
accept the portfolio OF the War Department
They say that this honor was not the seeking Of
either the Senator or his hopeful son, but that
II was thrust upon them, and as 1t came without
their solicitation. they feel that they can ma
turely consider the whole situation before
making up their minds as to whether they will
allow tho unsought honor to be thrust upon
them. Very few are inclined to believe these
stoiies, and many believe that 1t is only
n dodge OF the cunning senior to making
people believe that he has not been
persistently seeking Don's promotion for years.
There are, however, others who say that the
events OF the last day or two may nave made
the wary old Pennsylvania fox pause and reflect
wbe her he bad not taken passage 10 the wrong
boat. IL looks now as II Blaine was going to
have votes enough to nominate him on the sec
ond ballot without Pennsyivana, and II this
should happen tne CamerOns would be left out
In the cold entirely. 1t Is not too late to make
some sort OF terms with Blaine and nominate
him on the nr,t ballot. ami therefore Don Will
stand on and say he Will Tor the present rema ain
Ia private life.
