A BRIsTOW ESTIMATE OF THE SITUATION.

corrections the statement u Saturdays TRIBUNE as to
| the myth OF Presidential candidates

the facts stated IL stated that Blaine has 10 from
California, from Colorado from Georgia. 10 from
Maryland from Massachusetts. from Nevada. 6 from
Oregon, not than from South Carolina, b from
Vermont Is from Virginia, 20 from Wisconsin, and
each from Montana AMI Utah, total 1O1. But the re-
equalization claims for him 13i.
H. Nevada is claimed "a wholly for Blaine. report
from San Francisco says that the delegation stands Tor
Blaine, for Hayes, and for Brstow. Men who nave
beat TO know that this statement correct
Ill Vermont Is claimed equally divided between
Blaine and Bristow. 1t has been repeatedly stated and
not publicly donied to my knowledge, that the division
is f0r Blaine and for BristOw.
w. Wisconsin is claimed as wholly for Blaine. re-
cent statement published by OF the delegates IL that
the delegation about equally divided and that
there certainty that Dir Blaine will get any Of It,
Perhaps the delegate ought at least to know whether
is divided.
V. The votes from Ncw-York not for Conklng are
called unknown. II SIR Curtis who IS one Of the dele
gates, and the leader of the antiConkng element
Convention has declared his preference for BriS-
tow, lie has used language with I'M ignorance of its
