the ears Of Gen. Harrison through Col. Crooks.
He says that Matt Quay is mad at Wharton
Barker, which accounts for his pushing Wana-
maker TO the front a. Pennsylvsnia's choice.

wagging over two subjects-the leading edi-
torial in the Ne,cs tonight and the determine
ton of Judge Woods, Of the United States dis
trict court to adjourn the court peremptorily

dental campaign, and did more than any other
influence to attract the mugwumps of Indiana

Harrison than any man In the state. and that
his paper il the most likely to indicate his
leading editorial this afternoon in regard to
Mr.. Blaine's cabinet aspirations is very signiA-
can't
The dispatch then gives the title Of the arti-
Gle as Blaine Bluster," and quotes some Of the
paragraphs which are intended to show that
Mr.. Blaine was not the central figure in the
campaign, though his followers tried to make
him SO; that his presence in Indiana was q
damper, which only Harrison's steady popu-
larity overcame.
Judge Woods reason for causing the grand
Jury TO adjourn ID that he is obliged to open Q
United States court at Fort Wayne next week,
but it is rumored that it is the result Of q
deal between leading democratic and repub-
hcan politicians, who well know that neither
side has anything to gain by judicial scrutiny,
drop where it is, and ,ope that it win drop out
Of the public mind in due time.
