ing tomorrow morning. If the delegation think
it best not to put him in the field, it win not be
done; but the facts will be laid before them, and
ths5 must decide whether Indiana viii meet and
respond to this call. If the delegation deter
mine to make the Senator a candidate, tits not
to be supposed that he will be antagonized by
any member. To suppose so is to impeach the
good sense of the delegates, and could only
suit IN hopeless division.
Schwartz, of the Philadelphia Telegraph,
wires his paper that the combined vote of Blaine
and Arthur is 575 that Lincoln has no standing;
that Logan will have forty votes from Illinois;
that Sherman will have the majority of Ohio,
but that the drift, if an Eastern man is chosen,
is for Hawley, and, if a Western man, for Har-
risen, the chances being decidedly the best for
Harrison.
The Blaine men are very jubilant tonight.
One Massachusetts man is for Blaine and tbir-
teen are claimed for him in Maryland.
Colonel Mcclure, of the Philadelphia Times,
telegraphs that Arthur must make some combi-
nation, or Blaine will be nominated.
1t is practically decided that Senator Harri-
sons name will be presented to the convention.
That he win be supported byiat least twenty-five
of .ae delegates, and probably by all, is equally
certain.
GENERAL AND PERSONAL.
should have said that in the event that In
diana does not place General Harrison in the
field the vote favorable to him will go to General
Hawley, of Connecticut. There is is absolutely
mention whatever of General Sherman or
Robert Lincoln. Their names have not been
heard in all this Babel of talk
Martin 1. Townsend will nominate General
Arthur, seconded by John B. Henderson, of
Missouri. unless the latter is made temporary
John Stewart the late Independent candidate for
Governor of Pennsylvania, seconded by W. Ii.
West, of Ohio. Judge West is the most pic
turesque parsonage here; blind, walking through
the corridors of the hotels, led by his
IN, with cloak thrown over his tall form, he
is the observed OF ali observers. -nor
Long, of Massachusetts, will present 14...-.~.4
If Indiana decides to put General Harrison in
the race, Colonel r. W. Thompson will present
him.

headquarters has been seen single bottle of
liquor

among them Auditor Alexander and Deputy

is to boost Blaine through denunciation of the
Chinese.
