Hiscock Says Harrison VIII Have 600 Votes

Quietly Declares Blaine Will Win With
575 Votes.
NEW YORK, June IA morning paper

tion. FRANK HIsCoCK.
MINNEAPOLIS, June 6.-I have no explana-
tion to make for my declaration in favor of
Mr.. Blaine other than made last night. The
Republicans of New York clearly want Mr..

MINNEAPOLIS, June 6.-I am absolutely
certain the result will be in favor of Blaine.
We have assurances from more than so del
egates that they will vote for Mr.. Blaine on
the first ballot. We are certain that
there are other who will vote
for Blaine when they realize
the situation, as they will before the ballot

ONE CAUCUS DOES NOTHING.

Illinois Couidn't Agree to Take q Poll
Ser ator Cullom Sees How Things Stand
and Prevents a Show of Hanas-How the
Delegation Sizes Up.
MINNEAPOLIs, June 6.-The meeting of
the Illinois delegation to-day revealed con-
siderable difference of opinion as to the ex-
tent to which the various district
delegates feel themselves bound to
obey the instructions of their
district conventions. Under the
instructions given by the State Convention,
which bind the eight delegates at large, and
by those district conventions which went to
the extent of instructing the delegates,
about three-fourths of the Illinois delega-
tion might be reasonably expected to
support President Harrison. 1t has
been very generally contended, how
ever, by many of the district delegates,
that their people were for Harrison only
because they understood Mr. Blaine to be
out of the contest, and that in disregarding
their instructions and supporting the dis
tinguished Secretary of State they would
be merely following the actual preference
of their constituents.
selves to be in a very large majority in to-
days meeting of the Illinois delegation,
made a motion after the transaction of
routine business, that poll of the dele
cation be taken on the Presidential question.
After heated debate the motion prevailed
by a majority of two. A question was in
stantly raised as to the correctness of the
vote, and hubbub ensued.
While the dispute was in progress Sena-
tor Cullom, who presided, stated as there
appeared to be very large minority op-
posed to the proposition to poll, in the in
terest of harmony he would sug gest that
the movement be abandoned. This was
agreed to.
1t is maintained by the Blaine
people tonight, largely for effect,
that this vote indicates the rela-
tive strength of Blaine and
Harrison in the Illinois delegation, there
being six absentees The conservative
Blaine men of the Illinois delegation, how
ever, admit that several of the Harrison
men voted with them, and that the vote
does not indicate the relative strength.
The concensus of opinion indicates that the
delegation will stand about 80 for Blaine
and 16 for Harrison on the first ballot. The
second ballot, however, would show mate
rial gains for the gentleman from Maine.

MINNEAPoLIS, June 6-The last of the
Pittsburg contingent arrived this morning.
A few stragglers may come in tomorrow,
but the workers are all here The Alder
man McGeary Club, from the Southside, with
SO members, got in about noon, and the boys
are scattered all over the town. Prothono-
tary Bradley was in the party, and he was
walking around taking in the city and
getting the trend OF political senti-
ment. He said he heard nothing but
Blaine talk everywhere, and he is con-
WINGED that the ex-Secretary will be sue
cessful. Other Pittsburgers here who ar
rived to-day are Representative Lemon,
James Piatt, Congressman Dalzell, DIR.
Barchfeld, ex-Sheriff McCandless and
others. In proportion to population and
distance from Minneapolis, Pittsburg is
better represented than any other city in
the country.
Chief Murphy and George Hetzel, the
alternate for William Witherow, reached
the city this afternoon. The chief stood in
the lobby of the West House for moment
watching the Blaine and Harrison shouters,
and then he got away. The big Alleghenian
could not stand the noise, and was afraid
the drums OF his ears would be injured.

Poll Of the Delegation Shows Harrison

MINNEAPoLIs, June CIT is not true"
said Ex-Governor j. Q. A. Bracett, Of
Massachusetts, tonight, "that our State
has shown any signs of a stampede for
Blaine. On the contrary, the indica-
tions are that Harrison is stronger
with the Massachusetts, delegation this even
ing than when he lett Boston. The change
among Massachusetts men, so far as there
has been an alteration of sentiment, is in
favor of third man, with Reed or Nc
Kinley as the favorite. Three of the
Massachusetts, delegates, at least, are for Nc
KiDley, while anumber of others would be in
clined, were there due occasion, to 90 to
Reeds standard, on the ground that he is a
New Englander. 1t is not unnatural to as
sumo that similar feeling IS to Reed per-
vades other New England delegations, and
indeed, my impression has been confirmed
by the talks 1 have had with some of the
delegations from the lar Northeastern
states"
William Bancroft, member of the
Massachusetts State committee, who was
standing in group in the opposite corner
of the Massachusetts headquarters from
Governor Bracket, took similar view of
the situation. In q subsequent talk, Ex-
Governor Bracketp placed the strength of
Harrison in the Massachusetts delegation at

BLAINE WINS CONTESTS.

The Committees Decisions q Hard Blow to
the Harrison Forces, Who Threaten to
Make an AppeaI-The- Anti-Mosley Fac
tion in Alabama Wins.
MINNEAPOLIS, June 6.-The contest be-
tween Harrison and Blaine seems to be
growing so close as to make q possibility
that on the decisions Of the Committee on
Contests will rest the party nomi-
nation. The news received from
the meeting was far from
cheering to the Harrison men, who had
been counting on almost solid delegations
from the Southern States. In Alabama
they were especially hard hit, the anti
Mosly faction capturing all but three of
the contested seats
The contests have been unusually bitter
and numerous in this convention. Harrison
men threaten to make fight on the
National Committee all along the line.
Some of their best friends are advising
against this course, a. it is almost certain
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1892-06-07

that the appeals from the decisions of the
regularly constituted tribunals would be
adverse to them. and the effect of .
defeat on q preliminary skirmish might
have an injurious effect on the more import
ant battle. The Alabama contest will be
carried to the full executive committee,
but whether or not the fight in this or other
contests will be carried further it Is too
early to say.
The first contest decided to-day was from
Utah, in which the regulars, or anti-Salt Lake
Tribune faction, won. This gives Blaine
two votes. A minority report will
be submitted in the Alabama case.
The "White Republicans" OF the Pal
metto State will appeal to the full
committee. The Kellogg faction in Louisi-
ana, who are for Blaine. won their fight for
recognition. At midnight the committee
was still in session.

Placed at the Disposal of the Cleveland
Delegates to Chicago.
NEW YORK. June 6-[Speeid. Henry
Willard, the Northern Pacific Railroad
magnate, proposes to take an active part in
the work of renominating Cleveland. The
first indication of his purpose was made
recently to the committee which had
charge of the May convention organization
in this city. Mr.. Willard sent them note
of encouragement, assured them of his SYM
pathy to the movement, and inclosed a
check for $4,000 as contribution to the
cause. Next week Mr.. Willard is going to
Chicago to remain there until the Demo-
cratic Convention is over.
Mr.. Wizards conversion to Cleveland is
believed to be mainly due to his belief
that Cleveland is the only man who can be
relied upon to stamp out the free coinage
heresy.
1t is announced that the arrangements for
the transportation of the May conven-
tion delegates to Chicago have been COM
pleted. Special trains Will be pro-
vided and a guarantee fund of $4,000
raised by private subscription, to which 10
men subscribed, will pay all the expenses,
both for transportation and for hotel accom-
modations.

MINNEAPoLIS, June 6.-At 5 o'clock
this evening Clint. Wheeler, of New York,
chum of President Arthur and supposedly,

rFRoM STAFF CORRESPONDENT
MINNEAPOLIS, Ju-e 6.-The West Vir-
ginia delegation is nearly unit for Harri-
son on the first ballot. The Blaine men,
however, claim two votes. After giying
Harrison complimentary vote there will
be break for Mckinley. The bulk of the
West Virgirians are most favorably i'm
pressed with the Major, and If the nomina-
tion is not made Immediately the Governor
Will get their support after the first round.
West Virginia's delegation was the first
to hold caucus and form an organization.
The delegates met this morning in the
Brunswick House. c. B. Hart, proprietor
of the Wheeling h.teigencer, was elected
Chairman, and will cast the vote for the
State. j. II. Hutchinson will represent
West Virginia on the Committee on Reso-
lutions. Nothing was done about naming
man for national committeeman. The dele
gates preferred to wait until after the
nomination is made. The only candidate
SO far is Colonel n. B. Scott, of Wheeling,
the present incumbent. Though an out
and-out Blaine man, he is popular with
the delegates, and most of them feel
that he should be kept on the commit
tee, no matter who is nominated for
the Presidency. G. B. Hart was mentioned
for the place, but he says he won't have it
under any circumstance. Senator Thomas
Davis, of Grafton, was put on the local or
ganization committee; John d. Hewitt, of
Bramwell, is on the order of business; G. NJ.
Hart, of Clarksburg, was elected assistant
secretary of the convention of West Vir-
ginia; j. L. Beury, secretary of the delega-
tion; f. Miller, of Parkersburg, will be the
vice president for the State.
!. c. White, State Geologist for West
Virginia, is one of the delegates. His
brother is United States Marshal, and he
claims that as Harrison has done so much
for West Virginia it would be ingratitude
not to support him. He declares that he
will stick to Harrison through thick and
thin. Colonel Scott's shouting for
Blaine has had no effect so far
on his co-workers. Some of the
delegates thought the Blaine members of
the, National Committee were hurting his
cause by talking too much. This is true,
and if the National Committeeman would
attend strictly to their own business the ex-
Secretary would gain rather than lose
strength. In the Harrison quarters they
are bowling about not getting square deal
1t the hands Of the National Committee.

STILL FIRM FOR HILL.
The New York Democratic Delegates Meet
and Hold Love Feast.

NEW YORK, June 6.-The delegates to
the Democratic National Convention met
here this evening. Senator Hill was the
only conspicuous absentee. The following
resolution was offered by General Henry w.
Slocum:
Resolved, That we, the regularly-elected
delegates to the Democratic National Con-
vention, do reaffirIn our pledge to present
the name of Senator David 3. Hill as our
candidate for President; and be it
Resolved That will vote for him until
he is nominated or as long as ne will permit
his name to go before the convention.
The reading of the resolution was received
with great applause, and the calling of the
roll was begun. Governor Flower was the
first name called, and he voted AYE" The
only break in the list of affirmative votes
was that of Benjamin Wood, of this city,
who voted no. The result was that the
resolution was adopted by a vote of SO to 1.
In the corridors of the hotel, after the
meeting had adjourned, a regular Hill love
feast was held. A lew Cleveland men like
State Senator Charles Walker and United
States Senator r @. Mills were around,
but they said but little. The decided Hill
atmosphere braced up the spirits of the
hundreds of politicians who have been
wavering in their confidence of the ability
of Hill to hold the delegation.

MINNEAPOLIS, June 6-Ex-Congress-
man Allen, of Michigan, the manager of
Alger's forces, is indignant at the statement
printed in some papers to-day that the
General has withdrawn. Colonel Duffield,
of Detroit, who made speech at the last
banquet of the Americas Club in Pittsburg,
will present his name. "I don't know how
many votes General Alger will have" said
Mr.. Allen, but you can say that Michigan
is solid for him and the delegation will stick
to him."
Toward evening the Michigan men made
squirt, and tried to stir up little enthusi-
asm for General Alger. The delegation
met at the clubhouse, and paraded with
colors flying to the West House. 1t was q
painful effort and q dismal failure. What
o bject Alger can have in permitting his
name to be presented to the convention is
beyond comprehension.
George V. Massey, delegate at large from
Delaware, is staunch supporter of Har-
rison, and he says "the full delegation
from his State will be inclined the same
way" He admits, however, that in travel
ing from Colorado Springs he found the
Blaine sentiment stronger, both en- route
and here in Minneapolis, than he expected,
but he does not look for Blaine's success.
81 will be either Harrison OF neither" he
said, 'fand Alger, 1 am convinced, will de-
velop enough strength in unexpected
quarters that will make him a considerable
factor in finally determining the outcome. I"
Ex-Governor Oglesby, OF Illinois, con-
ceded - out of his delegation for Blaine,
and he admits that the number may be
more. Senator Cullom is trying to get the
Illinois men to vote for him after the first
ballot. He then will carry out their in
structions for Harrison. 1t was stated in
some quarters that Cullom is to be the
Presidents legatee, ard that this was the
basis of the agreement by which, few
weeks ago, Cullom suddenly withdrew from
the race and announced himself for Harri-
son. The Illinois people do not take kindly
to CuIlom's plans, and the chances are half
the delegates will flock to the Blaine stand
ard after the first ballot
The boom for Mckinley is regarded with
favor by the Harrison people. Their object
reduce Blaine's strength. They may find
this scheme two-edged sword that cuts
both ways. Overtures were made to the
Iowa delegates to trot out Senator Allison,
but the delegation could not be caught by
the attractive bait Besides, Allison would
not consent to such an idea. ISRAEL.
