CHICAGO, Feb. l4.-The Tribune's spe-
cial says the Blaine movement viii soon
be actively begun. a club win be or
ganized in . day or two for the purpose Of
planning a nucleus for the campaign.
Blaine himself has gone to New York. and
it is not improbable that his visit there
will have the effec. OF preventing the full
illment Of Conklipg's prediction that the
delegation VIII be instructed for Grant.
Blaine's friends here understand that the
object Of his visit to New York is to ascer-
tain how formidable the Grant movement
is, or whether il will be practicable TO IN
dertake to interfere with the working Of
Conkling's machine. Each day dleloses
facts which make it more certain that Hi
nois is to be considered the pivotal State
in the Blaine campaign. The first demon
stration for Blaine in Illinois viii be made
at . meeting Of the State Central Commit
tee at Chicago, February 25th- A gentle
man very familiar with the workings Of
the Committee, expects that fully 1000
Blaine men will be in Chicago at that time.
Il is the purpose OF Blaine's friends to have
some skilled speakers advocate his cause.
THE HARRISBURG
Senator Cameron has, within 3 few days.
talked very plainly to his friends about
Grants nomination. He says his own pur-
pose is to support that candidate. whoever
be may be, whose chances Of election seem
best As to Grant. unless those now man
s.s his case become convinced before the
Convention meets that be can be nominated
on the first ballot, his name will not be
brought before the Convention, at ali. As
to the Harrisburg Convention. he says, the
indorsemept of Grant would not have been
attempted, in view Of the shape things took,
il it bad not been necessary in order to
prevent his, Comeron's, defeat To avoid
this he had thu help of quite a number Of
prominent Blaine men among the delega-
ton, whose loyalty to himself in State
affairs they placed before their support OF
any Presidential candidate. As { o nomi-
mating Blaine. he did not consider it an
expedient thing to do.
Hon. E. B. Washburne authorizes the
Inter-OceAn to say that he is q candi late
for neither the Presidency nor any other
Office, and it Is his earnest desire to see
Grant nominated by the Republican party
and elected.
