possible for New York TO unite upon Mr. sherman,
and his name was passed over.
THE MOVEMENT FOR AIaRR
sLater In the inquiry there was a very consider
able movement for Gov. Alger. II was urged that
he possesses many OF the valuable qualities OF
that he has good record as a soldier. Gov Alger
has secured some very strong and influential
friends In the New York delegation who have not
yet abandoned him, but the objections urged 10
his candidacy were such as 10 render IL impossible
FOR the delegation TO unite on him. Not dscour-
aged by these fruitess Efforts there was disposi-
ton on the part OF some or the delegation 10 turn
10 Mr.. Blaine. One OF the most influential In the
delegation has said since the ST. Louis convention
that he felt willing TO guarantee that MT. Blaine
would carry New York against the democratic
ticket; but the Blaine movement has not taken
any new or dennite shape, and perhaps it may be
said that the Blaine movement is not now re-
garded as among the possibilities In the New YORK
delegation.
FINAL FAILURE TO UNITE on CANDIDATE.
the only thing certain about all OF the negotia-
tons which have been conducted between the New
York delegation and the leading republicans from
dinerent sections is that the New York delegation
has been unable 70 agree, and IL will be very di-
cult for the advocaees OF any OF the various candi
dates TO suggest TO the leading members OF the
delegation any argument In favor OF any candidate
which has not already been carefully considered
by them. The New York delegation at the outset,
therefore, Is not likely 10 bring TO the deliberations
at Chicago any mature Judgment as 10 the proper
person 70 be selected as the candidate"

A Fact Which iS Regarded i'm Chicago
As VERY Si9nilicanf.

CHICAGO. June 16.-walker Blaine, son OF Hon.
James G. Blaine, was a visitor last night at the
Gresham headquarters In the Grand Pacific Hotel
After pref conversation with those In the room,
Mr. Blaine walked up TO the book containing the
names OF callers at the headquarters who are
favorable to the candidacy OF Judge Gresham for
President and registered his name. The move
ment caused considerable surprise. 1t was re-
garded by the on-loOkers as q recognition or and
an evidence OF personal interest In Judge Gres-
hams campaign. Mr.. Blaine merely smiled when
spoken to about the matter, and soon after LEFT
the hotel Earlier In the evening q reporter Tor q
local paper said to Mr.. Blaine: "There seems to be
quite boom here for your father"
"Oh, 1t does not amount TO anything. 1t Is un-
authorized, and do not like It."
"Some claim" said the reporter, "that the boom
Is being put up to kill on Gresham In Illinois.
VIII you as his next friend In the case, take any
action TO stop the movement?"
81 think the boom you speak Of, replied Mr.
Blaine, ais unorganized; merely o bowling mass,
and, as say, 1t Is unauthorized. I do not think,
from the present outlook, that any action will be
necessary"
