Editor CLARK sons Cacsle.

DEs MONIES IA, February l3.--ln an
interview, to-day, j. s. Clarkson, the Iowa
member of the Republican National Com
mittee, and an intimate friend OF Blaine,
on the Blaine letter OF declination and Its
probable effects, he said; 81 have been
expecting the letter for some time and 1t Is
in line with letters / received from Mr..
Blaine in November and December, which
led me to believe and 10 say at
the National Committee meeting
in Washington and afterwards at New
York, that did not believe he would be
in the field. The press of the country, led
by the pursuing Misrepresentation OF the
malignant enemies of Blaine has refused
to believe in the sincerity and unselhsh atti'
tude Blaine has held toward the
party. In 1884 he was not a candidate
for the nomination; he did not
really want it, and received
several letters from him in the winter and
the early spring before his nomination,
strongly expressing the wish not to run.
Iowa has voted in three successive national
conventions for Blaine, aud believes in him
now more than ever. Now that he is out
of the field it will probably present can
didate OF its own. It has two very strong
and fit men in Senator Allison and Justice
Miller. The indications are now that the
party take Western man for candidate
Sherman of course will move powerfully
into the contest, but believe the country
will respond TO other men, aud that the
choice, if made between Western men, will
between Allison and Harrison or Gresham
with Rusk, of Wisconsin, likely to develop
great strength

wanted it. 1t is too early to talk of other

wanted it. 1t is too early to talk Of other
candidates.
Senator Eugene Hale, of Maine, said
81 think Blaine is sincere. Whether l
knew of his intention to write this le'er l
must decline to say, but / can say posi-
lively that he ran in 1884 only after much
urging. He doesn't decline now because ne
fears for the success Of the party ticket, for
he does not. He will return about June
and take the stump for the ticket"
Ex-senator Warner Miller said: II don I
know Mr.. Blaine's personal reasons, but L
construe the letter to mean that he desires
to see the party united, and that he found
that his nomination might create dissen-
sion in the ranks. There are good men to
choose from, and I think harmony will
prevail in convention. do not care 10
discuss candidates.
Boston, February 13-An Augusta,
Me, special says: The announcement in
the morning papers that Mr.. Blaine says
he will not allow his name to be presented
to the National Republican Convention
has created breeze OF excitement in that
CITY, and has beer the only subject of dis
cussion among Mr.. Blaine's friends MIR.
Marley says: 1T does not change the sit.
uation. Mr.. Blaine's friends have insisted
that be was not candidate. If, however,
the Republican Convention believe Mr.
Blaine is the man Yho can best unite the
party and nominate him, l believe he Is
too much of patriot TO decline. Having
once been a candidate, and having been
unsuccessful, he could not again seek the
nomination. He must leave the party
free to act. He has no right to decline.

Boss Quay ParalyZed.

PHILADELPHIA, February 13 -Iu refer

a nominee for the Presidency, Senator
Quay said to a reporter of the Ere min. . Bul
letin: 81 am surprised at Mr.. Blaine's de-
clination. was not prepared for it at all.
I had reason to believe that he was as much
of a candidate as ever. There was special
reason for this since the prospect indicated
his nomination"
''But are you sure, Colonel, that he has
declinedP" interrupted State Committee
Chairman Cooper. Cant you read some
thing else between the lines?"
~ can see nothing in that letter but an
absolute withdrawal from the field, !" re-
turned Senator Quay. "Mr. Blaine has
made blunder, and he cannot remedy it
He would not dare be candidate after
that letter, because if he was nominated he
would certainly be defeated"
Colonel Quay was not prepared to say
much about the outlook. Its too soon
after the surprise to tell what will be done.
Wait until the atmosphere clears" was all
he would say.

Senator Kenna's Opinion.
oecial Tsleorou 10 he Reofster.

Special IELe0rdR 10 he heplstT.
WASHINGTON, d. c., February l3-
Senator Kenna thinks that the letter of
Mr.. Blaine in declining denomination for
the Presidency is either high bid for the
nomination, or else it is an open confession
that he has no faith in his ability
to be elected, even if he should be
nominated. This opinion is shared gener-
orally by all the Democrats in Congress.
The Republicans have little to say but
assume to believe that Mr.. Blainei is sincere
In his declination. 1t is said that the let
ter does not set very lightly on Gen. GOf's
mind, as he has had the Vice Presidential
bee in his bonnet, and was in hopes that
Blaine would be renominated, and that
lightning would strike his rod, which bas
been elevated for that purpose for some
time.

have known how reluctant he has been
from the outset to give the sanction even
of silence to such consideration. II is the
simple fact that Mr.. Blaine was almost
dragooned by his friends into the candi-
dacies of 1880 and 1884, and that he has
Consistently assured them that he would
not be put into the position Of even SEEM
ing TO seek denomination again. II has
long been evident that nothing but bis own
positive action could prevent renomins-
tion this year, and so be has fually felt
forced to say to the public what he has
been saying in private. We regret the de-
cision profoundly, since we have believed
that be would command more votes in the
doubtful States than other Republicans yet
proposed. But various candidates, all ex-
cellent men, and deserving well of the
Republican party, are actively in the field,
and the next few weeks may be expected
to present some unusually lively politics,
and may the best man win.
CINCINNATI, February 13.-Ths Com
mercidl Gazette. commenting on Mr.. Blaine's
letter, saws: Bot the
faultless intelligence of Mr.. Blaine has seen
that he could not 20 into the field again
without confronting personal opposition,
reinforced by all the timorous elements in
the party, and envenomed by all the ancient
animosities; and he has concluded TO disre-
gsra the expostulations of his friends and
step aside trusting the party may find for
leader one who, if not abler and more
faithful than he, has not developed 80
many elements Of personal opposition. In
the face of the event announced this morn
ing, the country will turn with confidence
to John Sherman as the best equipped
statesman in the United States for the
Presidency, and the man in whose behalf
there is swelling current Of popular favor
that has every promise of presently becom-
ing triumphal tide.
AUGUSTA, Me, February 13.-Iu an
editorial upon Mr.. Blaiue's letter, the
Kennebec Journal tomorrow will say:
I'VE know not all the reasons which have
caused Mr.. Blaine to send his declination
to the National Committee, and are au-
thorized in no sense to speak for him or
interpret his course Of action. We know
well that he has strong personal reasons
for not wishing to accept the Republican
candidacy, and for avoiding the great re-
sponsibilities which the Presidency would
impose.

CHAIRMAN JONES

OF the Republican National Committee
Attempts TO Explain.
PITTsBURG, February 13-Chairman B.
F. Jones of the Republican National Com
mittee was asked by reporter to-day for
some further information in regard to the
letter written by James G. Blaine TO him.
''Of course, in this matter, Mr.. Jones, "
said the reporter, ''you are the representa-
tive of Mr.. Blaine, and you can explain
such matters as are not plain in the letter
to you"
ayes, sir, that is true to certain ex'
tent"
'Mr. Blaine states in the beginning of his
letter that he is constrained TO this decis'
ion by considerations entirely personal to
myself of which you, were advised more
than year ago. 1t is about year since
Mr.. Blaine visited Pittsburg. During that
visit he told several of his friends and rel
atiyes that he would not re-enter active
political life because of i'll health, and that
same reason would prevent him from being
a candidate for the Presidency In 1888. Is
this the reason alluded to as having been
given more than O twelfth-month slnceF'
''NO, sir It is not the reason. Or course
have not seen Mr.. Blaine since he went
abroad, but have had many letters from
him, aud in nearly all of them he has spo-
ken of his health and said he was entirely
recovered He said, in fact, that he was
in the best of health, and that the new
manner of life and the rest had been won-
derfully beneficial to him. No, SIR, 1t Is
not i'll health nor fear for the result OF the
worry and strain of another campaign
which impened Mr.. Blaine to write tnst
letter"
"Will you tell me what Mr.. Blaine's
reasons are?"
BLAISE's REASONS.
"As given TO me at the time to which
Mr.. Blaine refers, the reasons were these:
Before the nomination by the Republicans
in 1876, Mr.. Blaine was very anxious to
obtain the Presidency, and worked for 1t
with the aid of his friends. He was dis
appointed when il went to another man IN
the manner il did. In 1880 he was still
anxious although in lesser degree, and his
disappointment was less marked. In 1854
he had to a great extent lost the desire for
the office and now he withdrsws from the
contest because he has no wish to become
President. He takes keen interest IN
literary work and wants rest and quiet. l
assure you these are the only reasons for
Mr.. Blaine's letter that are known to me.
Everybody sooner or later loses q desire for
something which they were once anxious
to obtain, and this is entirely true in the
case of Mr.. Blaine You may say from
me again that it is not i'll health in any
way which leads to Mr.. Blaine's with
drawal."
"Is not Mr.. Blaine's letter somewhat in
consistent with the action Of his friends,
presumably with his consent, in working
for the control Of the State delegations and
committees?n
No, sir; il is not inconsistent. No such
work has been done by us.o
And yet it is said that you have anx-
lously sought the election Of Col. Thomas
Bayne In Allegheny as Blaine delegate. "
1t Is not true. have not met Mr..

held. I had quite long and frank talk
with Mr.. Lamont, and am sure that the
President has no desire to dictate the To-
cation Of the Convention. think Lamont
was impressed with the San Francisco pro-
ject"
"How many votes do you claim now for
San Franciscos"
ave have eighteen, and it only takes
twenty-four to make choice. / am sure
We will have no difficulty in securing the
other six votes necessary to locate the
Convention at San Francisco"
How will Postmaster Judd at Chicago
voter"
He assures us that he will vote for San
Francisco just as soon as he can get the
Billy Armstrong. Of Cleve-
land, will vote for the Forest City, but
that is merely as compliment to his own
city. ! think eventually he will vote for
the Golden City, although have not in
cluded his vote among the eighteen sure
votes that have marked here in this
book"
How long do you remain in Washing
ton?"
II expect to return TO San Francisco
about the 25th, or Just ss soon after the
meeting of the National Commit /
can.'

THE TALLY SHEET CASES.

The State stin Holds the Fort-Contradic-
tory Evidence Introduced.
sfsciG! Ttlegrunl 10 D< RegiSier.
COLUMBUS, O., February l3.-The State
still holds the fort in producing testimony
in the tally sheet cases, and did not close,
as it WAS supposed, after Matthias Martins
sensational testimony of Saturday. Mr..
Isaac Hill, Sergeant-st-Arms Of the House
of Representatives at Washington, Hon.
II. J. Booth and Edward Young are
brought in every time occasion permits.
There is considerable comment on Mar
tins testimony, and it is generally regard
ed ~ truth. The three thousand dollars
offer OF Isaac Hill to Mar
tin to induce him to throw
out the Fifteenth ward vote would have
been death blow to the defense il Hill
had been on trial The State has not had
witness on since Breitinger who has tes-
titled tending to connect Robert Mont
gomery with the forgery. Mr.. w. W.
Williams and J. c. Donaldson file clerks
of the National Senate, who were brought
from Washington had both seen Isaac Hill
ne ar the Neil House on the Sunday night
after the October election in 1885. Don-
aldsou had seen Hill and Allen o. Myers
talk in Washington. What q shame il was
that two Ohio Democrats should talk in
Washington. Surely there is some con-
spiracy.
Williams had seen DR.. G. X. and Robert
Montgomery, Isaac Hill and several other
gentlemen at the Union Depot in Colum
bus on the night of the lst of February
Awful conspiring, wasn't it2 Professor
Howard, professor Of chemistry at the Star
burg Medical College, said he had expert
mented with nitric acid on written paper.
The result was not satisfactory TO the
State, ss in the use OF chemically pure acid
the ink was visible after the experiment.
This afternoon Howard was again put on
the stand with experiments with CONNER
cial acid, and it was found that its action
WAS much more effective In erasing the
tallies. This was direct impeachment Of
several OF their own witnesses They
tried 10 show all morning that the color
deepened with time. Now they set up an
immediate action theory.
Joyce, Martin and Frichey said that
they did not notice the marks when the
count was made, and that State brought
out the theory that the stain deepened
with time. If Joyce, Trichey and Martin
are to be believed the tamperiDg has been
done since the count. The State had no
other witnesses present, hut had one more
they wished to examine, so they adjourned
until tomorrow.
