Inc Secretary's Friends Plans for
Rushing Him to the Front.
WASHINGTON, April IA well-de-
tined plan, having for its object the candi-
dacy of Secretary Blaine in 1892, has been
formulated here and in the West.
1t embraces the retirement of Blaine
from the position of Secretary of State
next fall, or at any period within a few
months, when it is safe to assume that
the Italian affair will have been satis-
tactorily closed. 1t is the purpose to
have his retirement from official fife take
place after the political effect of the Presi-
dents tour in the South and West has
worn off in those sections. Then Mr.
Blaine's friends desire to take him over
about the same route, though more ex-
tenslve one. The contemplated tour will
comprise 10000 miles of travel, as against
the 5000 embraced in the Harrison ifiner-
airy. The object is to bring Western
farmers as much as possible into personal
contact with the man who has been work.

road Company worked for the Liberal
side in the last election, stirred up Presi-
dent Henry Tyler, who made some Wig
orous statements regarding Tupper's
remarks before sailing for England.
a cable from London to-day saws the
meeting of the Grand Trunk shareholders
was very large and that Sir Henry TYLER,
in spite of the opposition by a certain
section, read his report, in which he
charged Sir Charles Upper with plainly
bidding for the Grand Trunk vote. but
the company declined to swerve from its
independence.
Before the election the Grand Trunk
was deserving of every favor from the
Dominion Government, but since then
no misrepresentation is too monstrous to
be hurled at them by Tupper and his
colleagues. Tupper's charges of cor
ruption on the part of the Board of Con-
troll were not deserving of serious con-
sideration.
A noisy debate followed, but the report
was finally adopted.
Hill moved that the board be not re-
elected, and this was carried by an ap-
parently large majority, but Sir Henry
Tyler demanded a poll, which will take
place tomorrow.
