PROPOSED RECEPTION IN NEW YORK CITY.
New YORK, Sept. 17.-There is every in
dication that the reception to MIR. Blaine
in this city will be i'll every way fitting to
leader of the Republican party.
MI EkjA kbjA9h, reefadrhsa eaf to tie city this
afternoon. He was closeted for an hour af-
ter bis arrival with the other members of
the National Committee, and the plans for
reception inform ally discussed. They have
been so many demands for Mr.. Blaine's
presence at various points along the route,
the exact day OF his arrival is as yet uncer-
tain. 1t seems probable, however, that he
will reach New York on Friday or Saturday
at the farthest
The varions district organizations, the
War Veterans Association of BROOKLYN, and
the same association in New York, will
combine to make a parade of no mean pro-
portions. At the National, Committee
rooms to night there wore but few members
present, and nothing definite was known as
to the particulars of the trip. Mr.. Elkins
said he had left Mr.. Blaine in the best of
spirits few days ago, and that there was
nothing in the recent publications Of his
correspondence to give MIR. Blaine's friends
the least apprehension; that Mr.. Blaine was
anxious that these letters be made as pub
lie as possible, ''and," said Mr.. Elkins,
they are already beginning to act as a
boomerang upon those who issued them
The correspondence shows that the very
letter which the Democratic press had call
ed upon Mr.. Blame to produce was in the
hands of Fisher, and not of Mr. Blaine him
self. I found that the Independents in
Boston were already beginning to doubt
the truth Of the original statements"
The route of Mr.. Blaine's visit to the
West is still undecided. and probably will
not be definitely fixed until he reaches this
city.
1t is quite probable that the party's can
didate for the Presidency will adopt James
d. Warren's suggestion and travel through
this State en-route for Ohio.
IN BOSTON.
Boston. Sept. 17.-About 1890 o'clock
the train entered the Eastern depot, and

Henry Parkman, Chairman of the ward and
city'commi,tees; Col. A. H. Whipple, of the

trail committee.
Entering barouche. the party proceed
ed to the Revere House. escorted by the
Lodge Cadets, of Lynn. and the Chelsea
Independent Battalion Drum Corps. The
streets along the route were filled with peo-
pie who heartily cheered the distinguished
visitor. Bowdoin Square. in front of the
Revere House was decorated with flags and
bunting As the procession came to the
square the crowd burst into cheers, while
the display Of fireworks served to increase
the enthusiasm. Quickly alighting, the
party entered the hotel.
In few moments Blaine and Parkman
