WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, May, %, SO

Secretary Blaine" said gen
tieman who had just spent an
hour with Mr.. Blaine, "will write
no more letters concerning the
nomination. He does not wish
the nomination, but if it comes to
him anyway it will be party de-
mand fer his service that so good
a party man as he cannot ignore
or decline"
