SCENES AT HEADQUARTERS.
In Allegheny yesterday the headquarters
of the candidates were crowded all day and
evening. Colonel Thomas M. Bavne, at
the Central Hotel, said: ''The contest is
practically settled. will win by large
majority. do not wish to give any figures,
but 1 am sure to be nominated" Colonel
Bayne will remain here until Wednesday.
W. M. Gibbs, one Of Colonel Bayne's chief
workers, said: 1.-The contest is in splendid
shape, and unless all signs fail we will carry
from 80 to 100 of the 124 delegates"
Mr.. Shiras could not be found. He was
at his headquarters at intervals, but during
most of the day was driving about the city.
One of his lieutenants, William Langhorst,
said: Eve have Bayne beaten on a fair,
square contest, but they are trying every
conceivable way to pull down our delegates.
We will carry over so of the 20 city dele
gates"
In the Senatorial contest, John n. Neeb
and Senator Rutan are both working hard,
and both predict success. Mr.. HARRISON
claims he will hold the balance OF power in
the convention.
The Second district contest in Allegheny
is exciting the greatest interest among the
Legislative battles.
Chairman Porter and Vice Chairman
Neeb, of the Republican County Committee,
met yesterday to appoint the temporary
Chairmen of the conventions. They de-
cided to meet again to-day, when Secretary
Berry will probably be able TO meet with
them.

ceived this evening at the Bayne and Shiras
headquarters. No other arrangements have
vet been made.
