CHICAGO, June l3.-The most remarkable
feature of the situation all day and throughout
the evening was the strong under-current for
Blaine. No matter that he had written two let
tsrs declining to b candidate under any cir
cumstanees. and no matter even il Chairman
Jones had third epistle in his pocket making
the point again In . direct address 70 the con-
vention, there were many around the political
headquarters, men from all points OF the
country, who still expected that Blaine was the
coming man. They quoted his speeches IN
which he said that no man had the the right to
refuse the call Of his country if 1t came to him
with urgency and unapimity. and concluded that
Blaine would not be the frat to violate his own
principles None of the delegates or men OF
promin spcs would commit themselves publicly
the subject. but the talk continued, never
thsless
There was greater activity a. the Gresham

any of the other candidates. The register vas
kept open and svsry Gresham man who dropped

A little dodge is being circulated in the inter-

ination of the Judge There are forty-four in
the list, among them the Terre Hauts

Independent, and several others OF like char

Harrison, but have spoken kindly OF Judge
Gresham. There are, also. in she list at least
dozen Democratic and independent papers. and
in the whole list there is but one Republican
paper that favors Judge Gresham, - above Gen.
Harrison, unless it be the Fl Wayne
Gazette and the Delphi Journal As there are
more than 200 Republican newspapers in lndi-
ana, the appearance of the ''dodeer" only serves
TO emphasize the practically unanimous voice Of
the press for Harrison.
At this writing the situation is certainly most
favorable to the nomination of General Har-

fact in his case. that he can give

The Denver. Texas s. Ft. Worth road
opened up new line of traffic. 1t
made great squirt and parade of re-
ducing the rates from the east to Pueb-
10 and Denver. But the war was all Il

that the ethics of railroad managers
would be outraged if he should per-
sist in lowering the rates. Too baG
about those ethics. Some of these
days the railroad companies will have
to get Lew ethics. ready made over.
We do not mean to say that there is
such thing as railroads being con-
trolled at present. OF course there is
the Interstate Commission. 1t is a
fine body for misenterpretation and in

thing laughable if it were not. dis
graceful: Connecting lines almost d.
rect from New York and Chicago to
Denver, either by force or common con-
sent, pool with the Gulf route that con-
meets with the gulf and sea COAST
line of steamers. There is great diff
ference In the necessary cost Of ship
ment between the northern and Gulf
route. Pool rates are established. The

difference. Give us another Inter
