ESPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL

CHICAGO, Nov. 15.-The Daily News
Washington special says the very emphatic
announcement Of James G. Blaine that he
is not a Presidential candidate, and could
not be induced TO become one, is the sub
ject of considerable talk just now. Poll
ticians do not accept his declarations for
what they appear to be worth. The gen.
eral belief is that Blaine realizes that he
cannot get the Republican nomination,
but means to arrange matters so as to hold
similar relations to the successful candl-
date as he did to Garfield. Another theory
is that he is now convinced that the tenn
per Of the people is against the nomination
Of standing candidates, and that the Pres
idential lightning is more likely to strike
some one who keeps himself in the rear.
1t is thought that Blaine has not yet
despaired of regaining the power he lost
by Garield's death, and hopes that a
favorable turn of fortune will result from
the iactional troubles in the party, His
belief is that the Half breeds will be able
to control the next national convention if
they determine to do so, but it is extremely
doubtful if there are as many Blaine men
now As in 1880. 1t is noticed that Blaine
has discarded the convenient plea Of press
ing business. His manifold enterprises
are all in an exceedingly prosperous CON
dition, aud unless a great many are de-
ceived he will spend most of his time in
Washington. His new mansion, st the
corner OF Massachusetts, avenue and TWEEN
tieth street, Will be his headquarters, and
his boom will be worked for al it is worth.
That Blaine would decline the Republican
nomination, or would not secretly plot to
secure it, very few here credit.
strange and faual Accident.

Counterfeit Dollars.
WAsHISGroN, Nov. 15.-Chief Brooks OF
the Secret Service Of the Treasury De-
