A BIG FIGHT IN INDIANA.
The Republicans to Try to Steal the
State by the Ohio Methods.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.-It is well un-
derstood here among the secret service
agents, pension examiners, and other
trained political brigands that the Repub-
lican managers propose to try to carry
Indiana by the same methods which were
successful in Ohio. Dudley's force of ex-
pert bulldOzers is to be transferred to
Indiana. There is no doubt of this.
VIII the HoOsier Democrats and
independent Republicans allow them
selves to be robbed of victory by the
methods to which Blaine and his agents
propose to resort? This question is dis
cussed here not little. There is grow
ing belief that there will be trouble in
Indiana on Nov. 4. The belief is becom-
ing stronger among the managers of both
parties that the great battle of the cam
paign is to be fought in Indiana. Re-
publicans are losing confidence in their
ability to carry New York, and they re-
gard Indiana as the weakest point il the
Democratic line. Consequently, they are
determined to make desperate fight 1Or
the State.

Warren Telegraphs to the knight to
Come to New York.
The enthusiastic reception to GOV,
Cleveland by the business men of this city
and Brooklyn, says the New York World
of Oct. Is, has carried CONSERVATION into
the Republican camp, and efforts are be-
ing made to Offset those demonstrations
by having James G. Blaine return imme-
diately to New York. Mr.. James D. War
ren, Chairman of the Republican State
Committee, forwarded a dispatch to Mr..
Blaine yesterday marked ''rush," and
containing substantially the following
words:
To James g. BI1iae:
1t Is Imperative that you return to this
State Immediately and cancel all Western
engagements. The eXigencies of the canvass
admit of no delay. JAMES d. WARREN.
Said a well known Republican at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel yesterday: EThe fact
is we are in a bad way. The Cleveland
sentiment among the leading business
men is beyond parallel in political his
tory. Men who four years ago gave their
money, their time and their influence to
Mr.. Garfield are either openly advocat-
ing Mr.. Cleveland's election or will not
take the time and trouble to register

nels of usefulness to the Blaine cam
paigners, and forces them to depend large-
ly for their pecuniary assistance upon the
Goulds, Vanderbilts, Fields, Sages, Sloans
and other warm advocates of the cause of
monopoly. Mr.. Warren recently visited
his home in Buffalo and returned to this
city in bad humOr. He found in Buffalo
and Erie county such a strong Cleveland
sentiment that he became alarmed, and
he has decided, as being directly in charge
of the New York State campaign, that the
only hope of victory lies in exhibiting Mr..
Blaine in every large city in the State"
"Will Mr.. Blaine do as Mr.. Warren
WishesP
"Ihat is hard to say. The National Com
mittee which Steve EIkins controls is not
in accord with Mr.. Warren's State Com
mittee. Elkins feels dubious about Michi-
gan, Wisconsin,, and even Iowa, and in
order to insure the electoral vote there, he
wants Blaine to canvass the Northwest.
Warren is so thoroughly frightened at the
progress the Democrats are making here
that he frankly admits, when conversing
with friends, that if Blaine cannot mag
netize and convert the people, New York
is hopelessly lost to the Republicans. l
think Blaine will come on at once, though
he is suffering very greatly from physical
exhaustion"

It is alleged on the streets that COM

statements have any foundation,

There are no new develop
