The Rhode Island delegates, who are
coached by General Charles X. Brayton,
are somewhat suspicious OF the apparent
support Blaine Is receiving from some Of
the old stalwarts Of Conkling fame.
It is considered strange by some OF the
delegates that Platt Of New York, who
was as "Me Too" Platt in the time Of
Conkling's fame, should be so energetic
in support OF Blaine, and some regard
him~as being actuated by some sinister
motive.

committees were filed from majority ele-
ment.
A far western member Of tie committee
on credentials said before the COMMITTEES
went into session that IL had a lot OF work
before 1t, and proposed to take Its time
and do IL carefully and thoroughly. He
also expressed the opinion thst IL was a
question whether It's representatives
would be made mp until Thursday, aud
possibly not before Friday. This would
necessarily defer the permanent organiza-
tion Of tho convention to the end OF the
week, In which event the final bal
lot could not very we'll be reached un'

Mr.. Harrison's Indiana friends were
greatly elsted when they heard OF the
meeting Of the New York delegates last

themselves to vote for the president
They were also encouraged by report
from what was regarded as a reliable
source, that in case the Michigan delega-
tion should drop General Alger after the
first ballot, eight of It's members would
certainly vote for Mr.. Harrison. The
Blaine men had steadily denied that the
president could secure single vote from
Michigan, and claimed its full vote for
Blaine after the first ballot. The recei pit
of SO much good news all at once, aroused
the enthusiasm of the Indiana people.
