IBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNEI
CHICAGO, May O.-A special Dispatch to The
ChicdGO Tribune from Washington gives the follow
ingi
A friend of BIainFs claims to know absolutely
this: That when Senator Logan returned from lis
last trip TO Illinois, there was conference of the
Grant leaders, ut which Senator Logan stntch tho
danger Of defeat which threatened Grant In Illinois
and said that Mr. Farwcll was working for Blaine
with tremendous energy, aud that something ought
to be done. Senator Cameron suggested at that
ting that Senator Logan ought to return to Illinois
with plcnary power, whatever that NAV mean and
make it certain that the Illinois Convention slioud
be carried solid, If possible, and at any rate should
be instructed for Grant aud that Illinois. with
votes, would make Gaut's nomination certain.
Upon this representation Senator Logan did re-
turn lust Saturday 10 Illinois Meanwhile. how
ever, tho outbreak III the Pennsylvania delegation
tOChicaQO In favor Of Blaine, which has long been
Rntclpated has occurred, he result of which seems
likely to he the practical loss OF that State to Grant
1t is represented that n majority of the delegates
from Pennsylvania, ASIDE from tho decgates-at-
large, will maintain that nobody Is instructed for
Grant except the delcgatCs-at-largc. aud that the
country and city districts shall vote the majority
OF people IN the districts, by SUBSEQUENT or former

said that Philadelphia CITY delegates under tho
lead OF MaCMducs, are likely to agreo to tails
plan, in which event Senator Blaine would navo
pledged n majority of the Pennsylvania delPgaton
at Chicago. In case the delegation shOUd then
insist upon the uuit rule, for which SenpCOr Cam
eron has hitherto been strenuous the vote of the
entire state would necessarily be cas- for Blame.
The Blaine men here certainly are vcrP confident
that majority OF the delegates from Pennsylvania
to Chicago already have signed q soon will sign,
agreement to vote for Blaine on the first ballot.
It is even intmated that GRAFT men among the
delegates in Pennsylvania, discovering what the
situation is, have already been to Washington and

THREE wAsHBURNE AND ONE SHERMAN DELEGATES
AT-LARGE CHosEN-sEvES DISTRICT DELEGATES
FOR BLAINE.
lBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUSE.l
MADISON Wis, May 5.-In the Republican State
Convention held here to-day, the strength of
the Washburne men surprised the oldest politicians.
Most Of the District Conventions had been deferred
to a day or two before the State Convention, so
that the character of the latter not definitely
known. The Blaine men. however expected to
have large majority of Ithe delegates Ito Chicago.
Last night, when the Washburne delegates began
to pour in, the Blaine men offered ito join the Sher
man delegates in opposing Wasnburne, but the
proposition was rejected. OF the four dclcgates-at
large. three were given to Washburne, and one TO
Sherman. The Blaine men chose seven district
delegates.
When the combination ticket of delegates-at-Iarge
was sprung in the Convention, the Blaine men
called foul play" but Sherman's supporters re-
tortcd, and bitter personal debate arose, the
Blaine men speaking freely and tthe Sherman men
making caustic rejoinders. There were at first in
dications itlat tho Washburne imen were weaken
ing. They offered to give up one OF their own dele
gates, and take In his place a Blaine man, but the
Sherman men held them to their agreement, and
the combination ticket accordingly won. The
Blaine men afterward declared themselves satisfied
with the result All is harmony tonight, and the
delegates are leaving here in a cheerful frame of
mind. There will be no bolting in Wisconsin,
which will DO solid for the nominee Of the Chicago
Convention.
The Hon. r. H. Baker, chairman of the Rerubli-
can State Central Committee, in calling the Con-
vention to ORDER in his remarks said that solid
South had been organized, and must be met with
solid North. He hoped the Wisconsin delegation
wonld 90 to Chicago uninstrueted, and unite on
man about whose election there could be no .ques-
ton. The success of the Republicans depended on
no one man. ApplauseJ

JACKSON, Miss, May 5.-There was large
attendance at tho Republican State Convention,
which was called to order by George w.
Buchanan, chairman of the Executive Committee.
George H. Gates and W. II. Gibbs were nominated

The Committee on Credentials were out several
hours, during which time the Grant men were

to Secretary Sherman. A wrangle ensued over the
report, aud at o'clock the convention took re-
cess for an hour.
James Hill, the Internal Revenue Collector,
is leading the Sherman men and has
the Convention in his hands. There will
hardly be any result of importance tonight, but
the prospects are that the Grant men will bolt un
less they have, as they say far deal.

LEY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.l


BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.l
ALBANY, May 5-The interview with Senator
Conkling regarding the contest over the lTesi-
dency, published recently in The Herald, has been
regarded universally by the politicians of the Capital
as n confession of the weakness of the supporters
of ex-Prcsident Grant and a last effort to bolster
up his cause. It's publication has given great en-
couragcmcnt to the Blaine men. So great indeed Is
this encouragement that it is said they mediate
making the present week great boom Tor Blalhe
throughout this State.
II is rumored that some of the New Yorkdccgatcs
to the Chicago Convention will openly declare that
they do not intend to respect tho unit rule adopted
at the Utica Convention, and will cast their votes
for Mr. Blaine on the first ballot, instead OF for cx-
President Grant, as directed by the Convention.
Tho number of men who ill thus break away
from the remainder of the delegation Is variously
estimated from fifteen to twcnty-sx.
The first sign Of the approaching revolt among the
delegates was made evident to-day lin the Senate,
and the first man to speak forth was no less than
Republican who was judged worthy of the nomlna-
ton for Governor by large proportion OF the dele
ratcs tu the Saratoga Convention. In conversation
with several Senators, and subsequently, with your
correspondent Senator Robertson said:
"Thc unit rule adopted at Utica will not bind
me. shall vote for Mr.. Blaine ON the first ballot
ut the Chicago COnvcntion and continue to vote for
him as long rs hc is a candidate"
Senator Robertson also said that hc believed
many other delegates Of Ncw-York to Chicago
shared his opinion that the instructions of tn" uca
Convention were not of Il binding naturr and would
shortly dccnrc Themselves in favor of Mr.. Blaine or
Some other candidate oppU>cdi cX President Grant.
Senator Sessions, who is'alsO delegate, said to
yOlr correspondent tonight:
al intend TO vote for Mr.. Blaine on tho first
ballot What is the use of whiting Tor . scT'nd
lHllOti There IL II large proportion OF the New
Nnrl JClryufiou for Rlulut uuI intend Ia work

II is reported that of the Blaine dclrCatrs
who are also members of the Legislature, mdN de-
clare themselves In his favor shortly during the sc1
