WASHINGTON, June 0.--The fraudulent Ad-
minstratlon. part OF it at least. is thoroughly
frightened. Hayes seriously thinks OF reor-
gnnizing his Cabinet. John Sherman. Dick
Thompson. and McCrary favor the change OF
base. They want tho Administration brought
into limo with the radical element Of the Repub-
lican party. An alliance has been proposed
with the Blaine faction. and the ovcrtures have
been made. Tho proposition has not come di-
rectly from Hayes but 1t Is understood that
McCrary has charge Of the negotiations. John
Sherman. In his desperate situation. wants
strong and bold friends. and naturally
looks to Blaine. Evarts and Schurz do
not ltko the temper In which Hayes
responds to tho suggestions OF Sherman.
Thompson, and McCrary Evarts has been ap-
prehcnsve for somo time OF movement OF this
kind. and has been quite radical himself. Ho
has been very angry with tho Southern Demo-
Gratis. who. MS he expresses It. lacked the cour-
age to show their appreciation Of tho Southern
policy OF the Administration by voting against
the Potter resolution ] regret to say II. butthe
truth must bo told. More than one Southern
Democrat has been to Hayes. as well rs to
Evarts. TO express their contrlton for their
votes in favor OF investigation. They were not.
I rejoice to say. received cordially. Their re-
ception was rather frigid. Schurz has preserved
his temper better than EvartS. but he, too, has
been hedging. Both OF them. however. see that
sherman Co are gradually making progress
with Hayes, and, thoroughly alarmed, they
went to his Fraudulency not long ago and
served notice on him that II negotiations were
pressed further with Blaine they would resign.
1t IL due TO Blaine to say that he has not given
the negotiations or the negolators any encour-
agement He docs not repe advances. but speaks
deprocatingly of the chances OF Hayes obtain in9
at this lace day the confidence fthc masses OF the
| Republican party. He evidently thinks that II
| would be too heavy a lonl to carry. and that his
| political fortunes would be damaged rather thnn
| improved by any known connection with Hayes.
| He knows perfectly well that he would lose tho
| friendship Of some Of his most efficient and de-
voted political friends II he entered into an alli-
ance. Offensive and defensive with tho Hayes;

! to turn up the bottom facts not only OF the Lou
isiana case, hut of the bargain also; ana that

There is also an intrigue In progress between

way for their cry OF Grant and Il strong Govern
