California delegates and the coasters gen.
orally have enjoyed themselves to-day In pa
rading the streets with the Kansas City re-
publican club. and the
TOPEKA TLAMBEAU CLUB,
which were met this morning at the Union
depot by tho California delegation, and por-
tons of the other Pacific coast delegations.
The coasters had along with them their big
blue silk and gold protection banner, their
big picture of Blaine and the California
white silk banner. They escorted the

ell over town, and the marked absence of
Californians from the Leland, where their
headquarters are situated, was due to the
fact that they were too busy booming the
Blaine movement in these parades, to at
tend the business at their we'll stocked head
quarters. The coasters were mar
shalled by s. P. Cancliff, of the Califor-
MIA delegation, who made an admirable
field marshal for the occasion. While the
main body of the delegates were engaged In

man, few of the leading spirits were busy
with more practical work. The committee

yesterday, which held stormy session, in
which Mr.. Gage took issue vigorously with

many delegates from Iowa. Gresham fol-

stronger impression each day, and
he enjoys the tactic advantage
of any considerable rise for
him, and the dropping of Harrison would
cause break in the delegation from 1nd1-

A summing up of the situation tonight is
largely guess work. Sherman Is little

outcome that if the convention ballots two

was the CRY of large street parade tonight
inaugurated by the Young Mems Blaine
Clubs of this city. Probably, 1000 or
1900 men were in line with several
brass bands. Besides the Young Mems club
there we're 12O Calfornians, the Topeka
gates. and perhaps 300 Ohioians.
All sorts of tranparencies and banners
were carried. The favorite motto being
'sBlaine and Protection" and "Blaine and
Brains" The paraders marched through
the streets for couple of hours and met
with an enthusiastic reception all along
their route.
