charges made against each other bx
the representatives of the two candi
dates and the struggle to control the
doubtful vote has made much trouhla
and to day the elublican party al
Minneapolis is split WIDE open. Some
oi the cooler men, high in party coun-
els, says that there is only one way to
heal the breach-by the selection of a
compromise candidate. This feeling
IS what has given strength to the Nc
kinley boom in the last two days and
has started the other side movements
Mr.. Mckinley has shown his sincerity
in the support of Gen. Harrison in the
most emphatic way. He has been out
spoken for him on all occasions and
has refused TO countenance for a mo-
mgnt the discussion of his own name.
But II is not as an opponent of Presi.
dent Harrison that Mr.. Mckinley is
discussed, Ills name is mentioned at
the head Of the list of compromises

decide 40 any time to withdraw his
name IN favor OF any one else. The
weakest OF the boomS is that of Gen.
hI-ct. The Michigan men are hav.
ing the greatest difficulty in holding
ihe delegation together. They re-
alila that the compliment intended
for him will fall Hat if the solid
Michigan delegation does not vote
for him Oh the first ballot. John
c. New said to-day that he saw no
reason why the supporters of General
Harrison should be one whit dis
couraged. He did not believe that if
was fair TO claim that the committee
on credentials had been captured bv
the Blaine men, as there was no ground
for such a conclusion.
