WASHINGTON. April 5.-Among the
rumors at the Capital to-day was one
that Senator Conkling had prepared a
great speech, which, while indirectly at

that the New York Senator will ascribe
the responsibility OF the New York Col

Blaine. Again, it is said, Mr. Conkling
complains that he was not consulted
