boom wherever 1t shows itself, but he Is
the man the Blaine people fear. The
OhiOans who are opposed 10 Mckinley
are able and shrewd manipulatOrs. They
have been long time in harness, and
are adepts at trade When one OF the
more distinguished OF the Ohioans was
asked last night what the result would
be in the Ohio delegation. with Mckin-
ley and Blaine in the field, he replied
unhesitatingly that Blaine would get the
largest number os delegates.
II will he dangerous TO allow any
further trifiing in view Of yesterday 8
formidable vote Of 32G against adjourn
ment. If Mr.. Sherman has really with
drawn there is danger that Blaiues OPP
portunity may be swallowed by the
nomination Of somebody else.
SHERMAN REFUSE TO WITHDRAW.
New YORK, June "a The Herald this
morning prints long interview with
Senator Sherman yesterday, in which he
is reported as positively declining to
withdraw from the contest, and says that
# Blaine enters as candidate he must do
so a. all the others, and take his chances
for securing majority vote. Sherman
refuses to withdraw, and the situation is
as much mited as ever.
MIDNIGHT, 1870 PM-HarrisOn's shout
ers are busy to night circulating a sheet
with figures showing their favorite 8
startling vote in the doubtful States.
They neglect to say that a great many
were temporarily for Bel iamins, and
were not iirevocably bound to him. This
plea is urged against them, but the cir
cular still attracts great deal of atten,
ton An editorial in the mornings New
York Press, repubished In the Inter
ocean of this city, favoring Mckinley
nomination, has created considerable
talk and has considerably increased Nc
Kinley's chances. A prominent dele
gate said tonight to the press news
porter:
"BLAINE's PROSPECTS ARE EXCEEDINGLY
POOR"
To night at least two hundred men in the
convention are opposed 10 his nomination
under any circumstances. The question
is can they control majority of the dele.
gates or unite a compromise candidate.
So far as can be learned at this hour
The conference held to-day by the anti
Blainetes have come TO no result except
to strengthen each candidates chances
ANOTHER ADJOURNMENT PROBABLE.
1t is more than likely that the conven-
ton will adjourn at once after convening
tomorrow until Tuesday morning. Two
things will prevent this. The positive
acceptance or withdrawal OF Blaine, ol
the withdrawal of Sherman. The
Blaine men now claim 5s5 votes
on the first ballot, If taken to-
morrow. The Ohio dele CATION is in trou
be, and McKinley's chances are thus
eakened Foraker is openly accused ol
treachery and only denies 1t, in q half.
hearted manner. He claims that Sher.
| man is beaten, and he is free. The Blaine
men held secret conference this morn
| ing addressed by Depew, Estee, Platt
| HAYWOOD, Farwell and Phelps, at the
! Hotel Richelieu. No result was reached
but q general agreement that Blaine
must not be nominated unless it can bt
done unanimously. Both Walker anC
Emmons Blaine reiterate positively TO
, night that their father will not run under
any circumstances whatever.
sHERMAN's CHANCES IMPROVING.
The Shcrman-Allison forces are nov
in consultation, and there is stronl
probability Of the nomination of Sher
man tomorrow. All depends on New
York. 1t is said that 70 of her 72 votes
will 90 to Sherman on the second ballot
If this is so, it ends Harrison's boom
McKinleys lines are waving. Phelps il
now talked of for Vice. President.
THE LATEST.
CHICAGO, l:30-The results OF thi
,vening's conference are that the Blain
forces are determined TO stand thei
ground, and the Blaine men hay,
combined to prevent his nomination
This means a deadl and leaves th,
situation unchanged. The colored dele
gates met to night and tried to agree oi
sherman, but their deliberations endet
in fight in which razors were flour
ishcd but nobody was hurt.
