POLITICAL PRESAGE.
Arthur's Friends Preparing
to Help Out Gresham.
A Mass Meeting to be Called to
Boom Arthur.
Desperate Efforts Made to Kill Off
Blaine.
A Democratic Conferl nee.
The Invisible Steed

WASHINGTON, May 1S.--The doom
of Arthur being sealed and all that
his friends can hope being the defeat
of Blaine the stalwartS are casting
about for man to whom to transfer
the available assets of the presidents
following. Two things they must ac-
complish, beat Blainc's nomination
and beat his control of the nomina-
ton. They argue that for Blaine to
be nominated will beat the party, for
him to control the nomination will so
far beat it as to render its victories of
little interest to any one who has not
been a servile follower of Blaine.
The most frequent mention is
now made of Gresham. He,
it is believed, possesses more
of the elements of popularity than
Edmunds or any one to whom trans
fer can be made. He has not the bee
in his bonnet. He said the other dav
to friend: II don't want it; can't
afford it; | ann poor man; l ought
not to have become postmaster gen
eral. have a family to provide for
and should be at home now, earning
a competency by my profession to
provide for my old age, he said.
THE army took some of the best years
of my life, and since then my prac-
tice has been broken up by judge
ship. l ought not to be in public life.
He meant all that he said. too. He is
a big Drained, big-hearted man, who
would take wonderfully with the peo-
pie when they found out more about
him.
He is deemed the best man for the
party to unite upon. He would carry
Indiana, is a brave and SCARED
soldier, is full of force, is superb
jurist and has a record that is un-
stained. In New York, among Ar
thurs friends and the whole anti
Blaine following taere is a gradual
but quiet concentration upon Ores
ham. He will be strong in New
York, strong in Ohio, Indiana, and
not weak anywhere.
The Blaine camp are already wor-
rled about the Gresham talk. Their
only way to counter it is to throw
Blaine's forces for HARRISON. One of
Blaine's closest counselors speaks out:
find that the Arthur men intended to
on Gresham after three
or four ballots he might anticipate
their action by throwing his own
strength for Harriso1. That would
be likely to break up the Arthur pro
gramme, and put Blaine in control of
the candidate. There probably has
been as much casting about for sec
ond choice by the Blaine men as by
the Arthur men. l know that as
long ago as last February Warner
Miller sent word to his friends from
Washington that they were to go
ahead to secure delegates who should
be for Blaine, if the Maine man were
a candidate, and for Ben Harrison If
he were not. | think, however, you
will see Harrison take the solid Indi-
ana delegation over to Blaine at Chi
cago first. l am informed that the
few Gresham delegates from Indiana
are all friendly to Blaine"
