was seen after dinner this evening, inn
mediately upon his return TO the hotel
from Senator Washbnrn's, where, with
number of friends, he had been en-
tertaine1. There were presentin the
room at the time several of the New
York delegates, including John Z. Mil
holland who was recently removed
from his position in the customs Office
in New York city by Secretary Foster.
Mr.. Plat was in most excellent spirits,
apparently, and received the reporter
with warmth and cordiality.
Il have SAID so much," he remarked.
in response TO question, THAT l am
about talked out on the subject of Mr..
Blaine and his nomination"
"The principal thing that the public
would like to know, senator, is what. in
your opinion, would be the effect of Mr.
Blaine'S resignation upon the conven.
ton"
Il have no doubt" responded the
senator, "that the announcement of the
designation will remove the doubt
which has heretofore been felt by some
persons as to the acceptance of the
nomination by Mr.. Blaine if it. were
rendered him. This is equivalent TO a
statement that he will accept the nonl-
nation, and is SO considered by his
friends. The effect, as you have your
self seen, has been Most marked, In
spring and encouraging the friends of
Blaine, and cOrrespondingly discourag-
ing the other side"
"Will there be any change, in your
opinion, from the figures that were
given out last night by Mr.. Blaine's
friends as to the relative strength of
President Harrison and Mr.. Blaine i'll

IL have no doubt" answered the SEN

CONFIDENT CONGER.
He Thinks Harrison Men Will De-
sert in Droyes for Blaine.


Col. A. l.. COnger, of the national
committee, said: Il think Blaine's res
ignatlon settles his nomination beyond
the possibility of a doubt. He wrote
his letter in good faith in order to leave
the field clear for President Harrison,
but the people wanted him for presi-
dent, and would not accept his letter
as final III spite of his efforts
TO prevent it. Public sentiment
has crystaliZed to such an extent as to
force his nomination. think his reSig-
nation now was rendered to relieve the
president from auy embarrassment.
This great desire for Mr.. Blaine's nom
inatiOn comes directly from the rank
and file of the party. from the masses of
the people; it comes without patronage
in the earnest wish to see our greatest
statesman placed at the head of the
government. His feature of reci-
prOcity has made Mr.. Blaine
many hundreds of thousand votes
stronger than his party. | have
attended many national conventions and
l never saw a situation like this before.
With all the powerful patronage at the
disposal of the present administration
and nearly two hundred otficehOlders as
delegates with many other OfficehOlderS
working on the outside, Mr.. Blaine has
a clear majority of the convention, and
Mr.. HarrisOn'S supporters are having
all they can do to hold their forces in
line. Many delegates have arrived who
are under sO-called instructions, who
openly declare since ne'sreSignatiOn
that they will vote for him, as one del
egate from Kansas said to me he would
not dare go back to his district if he did
not vote for Blaine now that he is out
of the cabinet. Teiegrams are pouring
in to the delegates from labor organiZa-
tions and many other societies and bus
mess men urging the nomination of Mr..
Blaine, as well as hundreds of messages
of cOngratulatOry nature. If this
crystalization of public sentiment con-
tinueS Mr.. Blaine'S nomination will
surely come by acelamation."

of the Northwest into blaze of glory.
Everywhere it is "Blaine, Blame, James
q. Blaine" The distinguished states
man from Maine was always popular
In the Northwest, and it needed but
a spark to ignite the flame. Now that
he has resigned from the cabinet, and
thrown down the gauntlet TO the admin
istratioD-fOr thus is his action inter-
preted here-all his admirers who were
lowering between their respect for
Harrison and their uncertainty as to the
candidacy of Blaine, have come out i'll
open advocacy of the great Republican
leader and joined the pioneer boomers
until their ranks have become an army.
No man now asserts that Blaine will de-
cline the nOmination-nOt even the
very leaders of the Harrison
party. On every hand it is accepted
that he is willing if not an earnest
candidate for the presidency, and the
veil of pretenSe on all sides has been
thrown to the wind. 1t is Blaine against
Harrison, and all the political weapons
of factioDal warfare have been ushered
to the contest. The Harrison people
openly
Accuse Blaine of Perfidy.
of bad faith, of treachery to the admin
istration. The Blaine leaders reply
that Blaine owed nothing to the admin
istratiOn, that the glory of his name and
deeds but added to the luster of the
cabinet. and that an administration
which he had hOnOred could have no
possible mortgage Oh his political future.
And so the lighting goes braYely on;
the mists have raised and the line OF
battle is now sharply drawn. Men, too,
have changed with the varying moods
of the hour. Pessimists have become
OptimiStS and optimistS have become
peSsimiStS.
Prophecy is the trade of every man,
and no one holds sacred copyright
upon the privilege. While the great
majority last night predicted Blaine's
nomination, men are found who think
the lmbrogIio. Will result i'll the selection
of dark horse. But it must not be
supposed that the Harrison leaders are
diSEeartentd. They may be diSmayed-
indeed many OF the rank and file Ger
tainiy are, but they are still in the fight,
and reSOlute and eager Tor the fray that
is to relieve all this painful suspense.
No man is Sangulne enough tonight
to predict or even hope that this COLI
VentiOn is TO 20 down to history as
convention where harmony was lead
ing characteristic. Indeed, nearly
everybody cOnteSSeS that merry fight
is in store, and, strange to say, nearly
every body seems 10 find a little pleas

Thurston and Foraker Do Not
Fear "Individual Disappoint-

John NJ. Thurston, of Nebraska,
whose earnest advocacy of Blaine, laid
himself out to combat the fear expressed
by many delegates that the pres
ent situation was one that would ell
gender bitterness in the party ranks
Not bit of it," he said. "lt is hot
in anybOdy's power TO raise bitter
feeling that will last five days. There
are thousands of men on the border
lines of the two parties who will vote
for Blaine, and would not vote for any
body else"
Ex-Gov. Foraker, of Ohio. who stepped
up at this moment, seconded this san
guine view of the matter, but little
group of delegates 10 whom their con-
yersatiOn was addressed shook their
eloquent heads and said nothing.

BEN is UNAVAILABLE.
This Is the Reason Boss Piatt Op-
noses Him. Saws Payne,

Hon. l.. F. Payne, one of the New
York delegates, says two-thirds of the
delegation are for Blaine. He says
that if Senator Hiscock had shown the
leaning towards the administration at
Albany that he shows here, he would
not be delegate at large; that it took
the efforts of Mr.. Platt and all his per-
sOnal friends to save him from def eat.
He says the senator represents the
views of very small proportion of the
delegates. The reason for liar rSOn'S
unpOpularity in New York, Mr.. Payne
SAYS. is his unavaiIablIity.

Point in the Blaine Movement Is

Senator Teller, of Colorado. who has
for long time been an avowed anti
Harrison man, said: Il think the effect
is good. 1t is first-rate. 1t clears the
atmosphere now, so far as his accept
ance is concerned. The stock i'll trade
of the Harrison men was that he would
not accept, and a good many men die
not want to vote for man whose ac
ceptance they were doubtful.
What do think its effect will he or
Blaine? | think it will nOmin ate him
| think we could have nOmin ated hin
any way, but it takes away our weak
point, which was the doubt about his
acceptance. Everybody knows that

why he should not accept. 1t is taken
here as positive evidence that he will

The Second Empire was then at the
height of its prosperity, power and mag
nihcence. Far and wide the Empress
Eugene was recognized both as the con-
sort of n great monarch and as the
queen of beauty. Whatever she did was
sure to meet approval and fiI.d imitators.
She bought a gown of Worth that suited
her fastidiouS taste, and from that mo-
ment Worth's fortune and position were
assured. First the new nobility Of
France clamored at his doors-that no
bility that depended for its rank and
recognition on the favor of the Bona
parties. Then followed the more exclu-
sive set of the Faubcurg st. Germaine,
the people whose titles and ancestry date
back TO the days of Charlemagne and
who still dream of the re-establishment
of the Bourbons and the fresh unfurling
of the Lily flag that waved at Fontenoy
and was bathed in blood and disaster
during the days of revolution.

umph and still holds his own. The en-
