DEPEW PREDICTIONS.
While the delegates were leaving the
hall, Chauncey NJ. Depew, in the
presence of number of people, pre-
d;cted that at O'Clock, Blaine would be
nominated by acclamation, and by the
general consent OF the friends of nearly
OF Harrison. DepeW said all had al
ready given their consent.
1t is the general impression, never
| theless, that McKinley's chances as a
dark horse are rapidly increasing and
the universal prediction is, it will be
either Blaine or Mckinley.
WILL STAND BY BLAINE.
what is .Califofniai going to do to-
day." asked an Associated Press re-
porter of Colonel Raymond, as his
delegation entered the convention ball.
We are going to vote for Blaine, ana
continue to vote Tor him until he is
nominated.
De Yo ing predicted the convention
would take only two or three ballots
aud then adjourn till the afternoon.
Then" said the editor, then the real
battle will begin"
At conference of the representa-
tiVes of Sherman, Alger, Harrison,
Blaine and Allison delegates which
took place this morning between and
4 O'Clock, Mr.. De Young, represen ting
the Blaine interests, made a statement
that if Harrison was nominated it
would be utterly impossible to elect
him. He could not possibly carry the
Pacific Coast, nor would be be able to
carry any Of the large States where the
labor element predominated, because
he voted against the Chinese bill and
treaty, and every phase of it, and he
had committed the still greater mis-
take of voting 10 naturalize Cinnamon
and give them the right of suffrage.
Now Allison was exactly in the same
boat. The statement made by De
Young created great CONSERVATION.
Colonel Henderson, representing AL
lison's interests, made statement that
he thought DeYuung was mistaken
about Allison's record.
DeYouDg said he had the records and |
would produce them to morrow at the |
next meeting of the conference.
The effect of DeYoupg's statement
nQnsaH rpnrnSpnfo tho Nou
York delegation TO make the statement |
that he did not think this delegation |
would support Harrison ii these facts |
were brought before them, and he asked |
DeYoung If he would appear before the |
New York delegation to-day and make
the statement.
Indiana supporters of Harrison this |
morning called on the California delega-
ton stand; they would not ate mpt TO |
force the nomination of Harrison unt9 |
after recess to-day, or until this matter
can be explained away.
HOW INGALLS, LOCKS AT 1T.
The NeaCs prints the following letter
in fac SimiIe, which it says was received
by member of the Kansas delegation:
vIcE-PREsIDENT's CHAMBER,
Washington, D. c., June Is.
Yours of the 18th at hand. 1t does
not make much difference who is nomi-
mated in my judgment, the candidate
will cut but small figure in the fight
We can elect anybody or We shall fall
The least conspicuous, and, therefore,
he least complicated man will be the
pest. Somebody like Hayes in 1876
Among all the men named there is not
/ 'lerder." No one whose personal
)r historical relations to the past would
make a difference of one thou,and
7otes in the canvass. Sherman, ALI
son, Harrison, etc., have records that
would be awkward on the tariff, the
currency, the Chinese question, etc,
Oepew's connection with railroads and 1
would be heavy load,
specially in the agricultural
states. We might as well nom
nate Gould or Vanderbilt at )
,nce. My impression is that Alger
,r Gresham come nearer filing the bill
han any others with some f How like
Phelps, of New Jersey, who could {
each the conservative forces of the east
md get contributions from the manu-
acturers and Wall Street. But you l
an judge much better than what is I
est, after consulting with the dele
ates. l have the use of the wires
turing the convention by the courtesy |
f the company, and you can, therefore,
me fully at all times if any
hing of interest transpires.
Yours truly,
JOHN J. INGALLS,"
THE OHIO DELEGATION.
Governor Foraker, of Ohio, just be-
ore the meeting of the convention this :
fternoon, said it was likely a break t
'ould be made in the Ohio delegation
n the first ballot and minated it
'ould divide their vote between Blaine '
nd Mckinley. He would not say any s
action had been agreed upon.
enator Hiscock says the convention
ill take a recess until Monday.
