of Maine, are opposed to coalition in Ohio Colonel
Crandall, secretary of the National Congressional
Committee and editor of the Greenback organ in
this city, Is in constant communication with many
prominent Greenbackers III Ohio, and says that adj
vices received from all parts of the State indicate
a decided and positive opposition to any coalition
with either the Democratic or the Republican
party in tue coming campaign. Many prominent
Green hackers here do not hesitate to that Cen
eral Warmers purpose in introducing this Silver bill
was merely to make it a factor for uniting the
Democrats and Nationals in Ohio, but that the
Greenbackers of Ohio are not to be caught with
such chat ashis Silver bill. They say it was coa
lition measure as originally introduced, and hum
bug aud SO designed AZ TO cOntound ana mix al
differences that divide the Greenbackers from the
har,l-money Democrats. They say that unfortu-
nately for General Warner, his bill has been SO
changed and mutlated that there is nothing lett OF
il TO make u coalition speech on In ONO. or IN any
other State Colonel Crandali comes out strongly Ia
his paper in opposition to coalition, ana says that

are about thirty of them in that State is also op-
DOsed to it.

PUBLICANs, AND THE PRESIDENT FOUND TO BE
FIRM
IBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.l
WASHINGTON, May 25.-A very curious incident
has occurred in connection with the fix in which
the Democrats find themselves. 1t seems that some
of the Democrats have been seeking to make one
or two leading Republicans believe that
the only way out of the present deadlock
will be through compromise In which the.Repub-
licans must yield some of the positions taken by
the President. This idea appears to have been
pressed with great vigor by friends of Senator Thur
man. who are anxious to get their candidate for the
Presidency out of the awkward and damaging
situation in which his fierce advocacy of extreme
measures has placed HIM. These gentlemen
seem to have impressed one OF two Republicans
with the idea that the Democratic position is one
that may we'll cause alarm and that the easiest way
out of the trouble will be for Republicans to yield
enough to induce the Democrats to make appro-
priations and 20 secure quiet for the country.
With tins idea the White House was carefully re-
connoitered to see If the President could not be
made to see as much trouble in the situation as
those who presented the case to him. He very
promptly said he did not see why Republicans
need mourn because a Democratic Congress had
killed the Democratic party and that at any rate he
oud not change his course in the least in order to
make back-dOWn for the Democrats any easier |;
sooner or later they would he Obliged to accept the
situation and surrender. Those who are acquainted
with this attempt at compromise ana the result
are well satisfied to find that the firmness of the
President is quite sufficient to save the party from
blunder which want of courage III one or two Con-
greSsmen came near precIpltatlng.
