New Hampshire Indorses Harrison.

CONCORD, n. H., April 27.-The Repuh-
can state convention met at noon today.
Hon. Hiram Dunton, the permanent chair
man, addressed the convention, eulogizing
Harrison, Mckinley and Blaine amid
cheers. The delegates at large to the Min
neapolis convention were then chosen and
platform was adopted as follows:
It Itindorses the ''digniied, clean and able ad-
ministration OF President Harrison" which has
made the nation respected abroad and promoted
its prosperity; demands the nomination by the
national convention at Minneapolis of candi-
dates whose character and record are
such that they will be recognized with
out platform or pledges as able and
unfaltering representatives of the party
that stands for tariff protection, home industry,
enterprise upon the lines OF the Mckinley law
and reciprocal arrangements which will open
the foreign markets to our products without de-
stroying domestic markets; demands honest cur
rency, which cannot be used to rob wage
workers, pensioners or other private or public
creditors of their just dues and which will be
accepted for what it purports TO be at all times
and under all circumstances without compen-
sation; demands the assertion of the nations
rights and the defense of the nations honor in
all countries and upon all seas; urges the COM
pletion OF a powerful navy and adequate coast
and harbor deienses; demands the substantial

TELLER Is FOR BLAINE.
Many Other Republicans Still Hope the
Maine Statesman Will Run.

WASHINGTON CRY, April 27.-[Special.l =
Those Republican politicians who are still
rabid In their opposition to President Har-
rison are making vigorous fight in all
quarters where it is possible to gain any
strength and work up sentiment. and in
many places the name of Mr.. Blaine is be-
ing used to accomplish their design. in
this connection, however, it is fact that
great many Republicans in all portions
of the country are still anxious to see Mr..
Blaine placed at the head of the ticket.
Every effort is being made in his behalf,
although every one seems to be in the
dark as to his intentions if any move is
made at the Minneapolis convention to
place him in nomination. The Washing
ton City Post today printed very signifi-
cant political article, IN which this state
ment was made:
Nothing OF late has sdde,. more to the cloudi-
ness OF the political situation than the predic-
tion of Senator Teller that with a candidate
inimical to silver the states of Colorado Nevada,
Idaho and Montana will be lost TO the Repub-
lcans at the approaching presidential elections.
IL has introduced into the problem a factor that
nine out of every ten Republicans would be
only too glad to ignore. More than this, it has
caused among the Republicans from the silver
-
the only man TO whom they can turn in their
dilemma It is a fact that nearly all the West
ern congressman are now receiving letters ap-
pesling for Information as to Mr.. Blsine's
health, and asking whether he would accept
the nomination If it were rendered him. The
Maine senators and representatives, who are
known to be close to the secretary of
state, are being questioned by their Western
colleagues, and, ii the truth be told, they are
pronouncing Mr.. Blaine to be full of vigor and
capable of undertaking campaign.
Senator Teller of Colorado went on
record today in regard to the presidential
nomination. In reply to question from
the PosT-INTELLIGENC Err correspondent he
stated that if BIaine's name was placed
before the convention as a candidate he
would vote for him. He stated that the
Republicans of Colorado were practically
solld for Blaine, and that. although Har-
rIson had expected to secure the delega-
ton, he had very few friends in the Gen.
tennial state. If Blaine is cut out of the
race, the senator is uncertain who he will
support, and will be unable to determine
his course until the convention meets.

ADJOURNED FOR THE BALL GAME.
The Final Struggle Between sherman
and Foraker Postponed.


CLEVELAND, o., April 27.-The Republi-
can state convention met here this after
noon. Hon. Charles P Griffin, of Toledo.
was made temporary chairman, and deliv-
cred brief address in review of the record
of the Republican and Democratic parties,
state and national Judge King, in intro
ducing Chairman Griffin, contrived to
name before anybody else Governor Nc
Kinley, bringing out tremendous applause
When he referred later to Secretary
Blaine an uproar of applause followed
from all sides of the hail. President Har-
rison's name was also literally cheered.
President Griffin, however. later brought
in warm reference to Ex-Governor For
aker, and bedlam broke loose again. After
the reading OF the reports of various COM
mittees, Daugherty of Fayette moved to
adjourn till tomorrow, so the delegates
could attend the ball game. The motion
was unanimously carried and the hall de-
serted in an instant.
The complexion of the state central
committee is said 10 be decided victory
for Sherman. Foraker arrived this morn
ing. and his lieutenants are hustling.
The situation tonight is that the Sher-
man forces are apparently more than ever
determined TO name three of the four dele
gates at large from Ohio to the national
convention at Minneapolis, and the For
aker cohorts insist they should have at
least two. The certain withdrawal of A.
l.. Conger from the list of possibilities was
one OF the developments of the evening
The committee on permanent organization
have decided on Mckinley for permanent
chairman. The platform committee is
said to be practically agreed uron plat
form indorsing Harrison's national ad-
ministration and MeKinley's course as

New York Republican. Meet rodav.

ALBANY, n. Y, April 27.-The leaders of
the Republican party in this state are now
here, and the details for the organization
of the state convention tomorrow are
nearly completed. In all likelihood the
ex-minister to France, Whitelaw Reid,
will be chosen permanent chairman
of the convention. In the plat
form the administration and Blaine
will be indorsed; Reid's mission to France
will be commended warmly; money
plank similar to that adopted at Roches-
ter last fall will be embodied; the tariff
issues will be presented on the well-known
lines, and there will be plank urgently
demanding increased stringency of the
civil service laws. The state delegation to
Minneapolis will not go there instructed
for any man as presidential candidate.

COLORADO CHEERS BLAINE.
But Harrison Has Only Two Friends in
the Republican Convention.

the Republican Convention.
DENVER, April 27.-The Re publican
state convention was called to order
shortly after IL o'clock, and Charlie John
son, of Pueblo, was chosen permanent
chairman. The committee on platform
reported and resolutions were adopted,
after which the convention pro-
ceeded to the selection of dele
gates-at-large. Senators Edward G.
Wolcott, Henry n. Teller and Congress
man Townsend were put in nomination.
The delegates seemed to- go wild at the
mention of those names, cheering several
minutes, and when quiet was restored the
nominations were seconded and the gen.
tlemen declared unanimously elected.
This means that Harrison, in all prob
ability, will not receive the vote of the
Colorado delegation at Minneapolis. Hon.
J. w. Brush was unanimously selected as
the fourth delegate.
When the delegates reconvened the COM
mittee on resolutions reported. The plat
form affirms devotion to the doctrines and
principles of the Republican party; op-
poses the cession of arid lands to states or
otherwise except upon such terms as will
protect the rights of home-seekers on
the public domain; says the demonetiza-
ton of silver in 1873 was crime. which
cheapened the products of the mine, farm
and workshop and resulted in unequivocal
injury to all the great industries of our
country and benefited only the money kings
at the expense of the people; declares a
belief that the free coinage of silver is the
principal issue now before the American
people, and that steps should be immedi-
ately taken for its restoration as money
value, and demands the enactment of
law providing for the free and unlimited
coinage of silver on an equal basis with
gold; commends the fight made by the
Colorado representatives in the in
terest of the white metal as repre-
senting not only the sentiment of
the Republican party in Colorado, but
also of the whole Rocky mountain min
ing regions; indorses the diplomatic
achievements of James G. Blaine and his
doctrine of reciprocity; instructs the dele
gates to the Minneapolis convention to
oppose the nomination, by every honora-
bic means, of any man for the office of
president or vice president who is not
known to be heartily in favor of the en-
actment of law providing for the free
and unlimited coinage of silver. The
resolutions were unanimously adopted
The mention of Secretary Blaine's name
brought forth prolonged cheers. General
Minely, of Custer county, offered a resolu-
tion indorsing the administration of Presi-
dent Harrison. Instantly there were
dozen on their feet asking for recognition.
The greatest excitement continued for sew
eral minutes. and number of speeches
were made against the resolution. The
resolution was killed by vote of 623 to 2.
The convention then adjourned sine die.

Maine for Harrison.

BANGOR. Me-, April 27.-The Republican
state convention met today. The platform
indorses reciprocity, opposes free silver,
expresses continued loyalty and devotion
to that great statesman and leader, James
G. Blaine. and also says good word for
and indorses the wise administration of
President Harrison, and declares that the
best interests of his party and country de-
mand his denomination and reelection.
1t is stated that the last resolution was not
intended as an instruction to delegates.
