THE MAINE SBNAToRsHIP.-An Associated
Press dispatch from Augusta, Maine, says that
at II o'clock last night "the Senatorial situation
suddenly changed by committee OF Frye's
friends waiting upon Hale and uncOnditiOnally
withdrawing Frye's name from the canvass and
rendering their votes in the caucus to Hale.
This iDsures the unanimous nomination In the
republican caucus and election OF Hale to the
SenatOrshp."
A STAR reporter to-day inquired of Mr.. Frye
as to the authenticity OF the foregoing dispatch.
Said he: Eyes; suppose that has been done"
well, what does 1t mean?" inquired The
STAR.
/ left Maine, ] left my interests in the hands of
my friends. know nothing OF what they have
done, other than what is contained In the news
paper dispatch. AS 1 said before, 1 suppose
they have withdrawn my name, but l know
nothing of 1t from them'
There is no doubt but that Mr. Frye will sue
ceed Mr.. Blaine in the Senate when the latter
resigns to take seat in Gen. Garfleld's cabinet.
II Is believed, too. that Mr.. Frye is not at all
displeased because of his friends withdrawing
MIN from the contest for Senator Hamlin'S
place. AT all events. he did not appear so to-
day, but looked radiantly sunny.

SECRETARY RAMSEY FOR SENATOR-Gentle-
men here from Minnesota predict the election
OF Secretary Ramsey to the Senate beyound a
doubt. Secretary Ramsey himself has most
encouraging reports from his friends, who write
that there Is no question OF his election. The
secretary said, to-day, with a laugh, that he
supposed that the other mans friends gave
their candidate the same sort OF encouragement
While 1t IS impossible to predict who will be
elected, the general tone-eyen OF the Seere-
tary's opponents-is that ii he had not gone
into the contest at so late date, there would
not have been the least use OF opposing him, as
he would have carried the day with no oppOsl-
ton to speak OF.

duty at the Arsenal here. will probably be made
colonel and inspector general In place OF Col
Shriver, recently retired.
