with the anti-third term men. Thus the Sherman
men positively claim tina. ten delegates from South
Carolina. sixteen from North Carolina, eighteen
from Georgia, and nine or ten from Virginia, VIII
vote against the unit rule. Among the Virginia
delegates set down as opposed to that rule. arc
Messrs. Bowden, Feruald, Russell, and Brady.
Congressman Martin, of North Carolina, said to-
day that there is no doubt that sixteen OF the dele
gates from that State will stand by Sherman IN the
Convention.
The advocates of General Grants nomination IN
Washington do not appear to be nearly so confident
as they were four or five days ago. Some of them
openly dcplore that the struggle has become SO
complicated with what they call cXtraneous ques-
tions like the unit rule"
Among moro thoughtful Republicans the belief
that General Grants nomination will bring defeat
and disaster is stronger than over. Hardly day
passes that one does not hear the expression ii
Grant is nominated we cannot hope to carry the
next House of Representatives" In the present
House there arc six Republican members from In
diana. and two of them to-day in conversation, de-
claTed that if General Grant should be nominated
for the Presidency, the Republicans would lose All
but two of the Indiana Congressional Districts next
Fall Neither of these gentlemen is personally
hostile to General Grant and both expressed SIMPLY
their honest conviction to what the erect OF MS
nomination would DO upon the Republican party Ill
their State. $1,000, F.
A large number of Congressman started for
Chicago last night and to-day, and the RepuDilcan
side of the House will he almost deserted next
week. c,.
Colonel Robert G. IngersOll will start for Chicago
Tomorrow morning, il is understood, TO work Ior
Senator Blaine. He is not delegate to the Con
ventiOn but it is thought that his powers OF elQ-
Quence and persuasion can be used with eiect out
side of that body. -,
Somebody has started rumCr that Secretary Shercc
man intends to be in Chicago during the sessions oil
the Convention. There is not II shadow OF tounda-
tion for such statement Secretary sherman, mas
main in Washington attending to his duties in the
Treasury Department.
Secretary Sherman has received to-day nnn nteI
of private dispatches Ola very encouraging character
from his friends in Chicago. These friends = say
that il it should become necessary for the Grant
men TO form n coalition in order to defeat Blaine,
Secretary Sherman would be the beneficiary;
Secretary Sherman has also received a dispatch
asking him if he would accept the second place on
ticket with Grant To this inquiry he has returned
an emphatic negative. He is IN good Splits i LG-
night and appears to be very well satisfied with MS
prospects.
