CAN'T CONCEAL THE FACT.
The Pacific Coast Almost Unit for
RIaine-Secntor .youes Solitary.

CHICAGO. June fS.-fhe committee
appointed by the Pacific Coasters
meeting yesterday was again in ses-
sion this morning. At this meeting,
although Senator Jones opposed any
agreement of first choice for blaine, il
was practically agreed that Blaine was
the fayorite candidate of the Pacific
Coast, and il was taciliy understood
that Some such recommendation
should he made to the proposed meet
ing ot the Pacific Coast delegations ai
o'clock. The matter OF second choice
was also considered by this committee,
and upon vote taken General Alger
was decided upoI. as the probable res
iduary legatee OF Blaiae's strength
with the Pacific Coast. For Some
reason, difficult as yet 10 explain,
there was no meeting OF the Pacific
Coast delegations at | o'clock, and
subsequent proposed meeting ut 5
O'Clock was also a failure. Ii was
found impossible TO get the Pacific
Coast or California delegation to-
getller at this time.
SENATOR Az ALONE
Senator Jones said 10 an Associated
Press reporter: 81 do not anticipate
any concert OF action on the part OF
the Pacific coast delegation a. possible
before one ballot, at least. has been
taken in the convention.
He said he did not believe that IL
was possible to unite the Pacific coast
delegation for Blaine. He did not
think Sherman would be nominated

delegates going over 10 DeEew. lie

WHAT'S TO BE DONE?

1t seems that the Democrats mean to
leave it to the Republicans to fix the
time for the congressional adjournment.
Their caucus rejected the modified pro-
pOsal fixing Oct. for a suspension of
legislative duties. This course is en-
tirely proper. The Democrats have
fully discharged all their obligations to
the country, in so far as these Obliga-
tons were dependent on themselves.
The delays IN legislation have all orig
mated on the Republican side. 1t is
proper, therefore, for the Republicans
to say whether or not they will act on
necessary bills or send them over; and
it is equally proper that they should
take all the responsibility for it.
Congress really should have adjourned
long ago, and no doubt would have done
so but for Republican opposition to the
tariff bill, the retaliation measure, the
Chinese restriction act and necessary
appropriation bills. Their opposition
was, of course, purely partisan. They
thought to make political capital out of
delay. In this, however. they have been
know which way to turn. They are not
prepared to go to the country on their
legislative record, and it does not ap-
pear that there is much opportunity
now left for amending it. Out of this
grave dilemma an adjournment is the
only possible way. Still, that has its
Objectionable features, and the quandary
wakes greater instead of lesseniug.

BAZAINE'S DEATH.

The evaneScent quality of fame was
never more clearly illustrated than in
the case of Marshal BAZAINE, who died
in exile at Madrid yesterday. Less than
twenty years ago he was distinguished
figure in one of the most eventful wars
of modern times; and yet,o the millions
who will read the pews of his death this
morning, there will perhaps be one in a
thousand who remembered that he was
still alive, and thousands had forgotten
that he ever lived. just eighteen years
ago he was the commander of the fin
est army the French empire ever put
in the field. In three months time his
army had been captured and BAZAINE
was in disgrace. When the empire fell
and the French republic rose on its
ruins, BAZAINE was selected by GAM
BETA as one fit to be made an example
of. He was arrested, tried and con-
demned to perpetual Punishment from
his native country. he carried with
him into exile the sympathy Of the
BOnapartists, Notwithstanding his mill
tary fame and his loyalty had once been
clouded by his supposed treachery to
the imperial cause when the effort was
made to establish MAMMALIAN on the
Mexican throne. The BOnapartiSts had
very little else than sympathy to give
the old man, for his last days were
spent in extreme poverty, and probably
he didn't leave enough beh ind him to
pay for a decent burial.
