PENNSYLVANIA.

A OBLIGATION OF THIRTY-THRRE FOR GRANT AMI
TWENTY-FIVE FOR BLAINE.
The Pennsylvania Convention was held very
carly in tho year-February Along before thaI III
any other State II was called to meet lmmedla'eH
after General Grants visit to Philadelphia IN oroer
to take tho movement in favor OF his renominauoh
when it was at its height. In spite OF the iaoU'
however. the Blaine men were only prevented from
Cheating majority of the delegates by having them
appointed in several counties by tins county c0ni-
m,ttees instead of elected by county conventions.
In this av the Grant managers obtained control OF
the Convention, a test vote showing 133 delegates
for Grant TO 113 for Blaine. The Chicago delega-
tion was made up in defiance of the will OF several
of the Congressional dstrcts, Grant delegates being
mt on TO represent Districts which were oVerwhelm-
inulv in favor of Blaine The delegation thus made
up was instructed to vote as unit Tor GrahI aO
Chicago Since the Convention adjourned the cOun-
ties misrepresented have held largo mass-meetings
To protest against the action Of the Grant leaders,
and TO demand that the unit instruction be dis
obeyed Several Of them have elected contestlnR
Blaine delegates TO Chicago. One man on the dele-
cation. William Elliott, of the Ist District, has de-
clared that under circumstances Will he vote Ior
Grant and another, Thomas Robinson. of the
XVIII, has pledged himself to vote for Blaine,
and the number of others who will stand with them
in this determination and vote for Blaine on the
first ballot is estimated by the best judges as high
nc twentv-fye There is no doubt that there are ut
least that number who Will do this. With Grant
out of tho way the whole delegation will, in all
probability, vote for Blaine. The twelve delegates
from Philadelphia are all except one opposed TO
Grant and it is reported on good authority that
many delegates from all parts of the State have
signed a written pledge TO vote against Grant.
The Republican sentiment OF the State is unQues-
tionaby nearly unanimous IN Blaine's favor. The
names of the delegates are:

ticket for delegates headed by William H. Cnahn-
Ter, as easily elected by average OF 4OO FoteS
total OF 500. Resolutions were passeu warmly
comuending Secretary Sherman for his manage
ment of the National finances. congratuiating zen
eral Grant on his safe return from his journeyngS
denouncipp the unit rule as tyrannous and unre-
publican and declaring it to be the earnest belet OF

A DELEGATION OF FoRTY-FoUR POSSIBLY SOLID
FOR SHERMAN on THE FIRST BALLOT.
About twO-thirds of the Ohio Republican Conven-
ton were IN favor Of Sherman, and the other third
vas for Blaine. The Blaine men made no effort to
muster their full force as they did not desire to
taeonize Sherman in his own State. OF the dele
gates chosen the Blaine men claim that they have
in his favor the first ballot, 10 on the second.
and that he is the second choice of Al. The Sher-
man men claim that the delegation will be solid for
the Secretary on the frat ballot, and that it will
stand by him so long as there is chance Of his
nomination. If q change Is necessary they concede
that thirty thIrty-two OF the delegates Will go
for Blaine. There was evidence of any Grant
sentiment in the Convention. and when his name
was mentioned there was storm of misses. par
TALLY drowned by applause. The resolutions con-
tain warm approval of Secretary Sherman. present
him as candidate to the National Convention in
struct the delegates at-large and request the dis
trct delegates to vote for his nomination. The del

A SOLID DELEGATION OF TwENrY-FoUR FOX GKAN''
The Grant men had large majority of the Ken
tnckv Convention, but they only carried their point
after vigorous contest. One vote showed that the
Convention was divided in the proportion OF $50
for Grant to 500 for Blame and Sherman. The del
epates were instructed to vote leach and all OF the
twenty-four" for the nomination of Grant, and to
work earnestly and in good faith to secure his nom
nation by the Convention Notwithstanding these
instructions there are said to be several members
of the delegation who will not vote for Grant, ana
the fact that one of them E. c. Hubbard. presided
at the St. Louis Anti-Third Term Convention SHOWS
that the report has soma Foundation. Their names

A DELEGATION OF SIXTEEN EVENLY DIVIDED BE-
TWEEN GRANT AND BLAINE.
In the Texas Republican Convention tho Grant
men introduced resolution commenting Grants
nomination aud iDstructing the delegates TO vote
a unit for him. This excited a warm debate, and
was finally withdrawn and the following was
adopted as a substitute: While we recognize that
u. S. Grant is the choice Of the Republicans Of
Texas 1t is considered inexpedient to instruct the
delegation to Chicago further than to cast their
vote as a unit for President" After the delegation
was appointed majority OF it was claimed for
both Grant aud Blaine. Word was sent to Wash
ingtOn that nine of the delegates were for Blaine.
United States District-Attorney Miner who was q
member of the Convention. said afterward that the
delegation was for either Grant Blaine. and it
was impossible to tell which tho fnvorite. The
preference would be determined by further develop
ments. If Grant could be nominated on the first
ballot. the full delegation would vote for him,
otherwise it would 60 for Blaine. The delegates

A NORMALLY SOLID DELEGATION OF SEVENTY FOR

The result of the Utica Convention was delega-
ton uomipally in favor of Grant, though many of
the DELEGATES at heart prefer Blaine. The Grant
aud Blaine strength was 30 evenly divided
IN the Convention that the resolution in
structing the delegates to "use their
most earnest and united efforts " to secure Grants
nomination was only adopted by vote of 217 to
lSO Senator Conkling made speech designed to
make every delegate feel that he was in honor
bound to obey the Conventions Instructions, and
vote with the majority, and several OF the Blaine
delegates voluntarily admitted that they agreed
with him. There are ten or twelve men on the del
egatiou, some estimates say many as twenty, who
cannot be depended on to vote for Grant. Four
teen have said privately that they will
vote for Blaine. Those who known to
prefer Blame are from tho Ist, Hid.
