~ Elaine Majority. But Harrison Gains
Several Tricks.
MlNNEAroLIs, June e. Spe cial The
credentials committee was slow in get
ting to work this morning, but it CON
tinued in session regardless of the meet
ing OF the convention. The progress was
more speedy than at any day yet and it
was evident there was a sentiment in the
committee aid among the outside mem-
bers to hasten affairs.
The Harrison men preferred greater
expedition and were anxious for a
speedy report so that ballot might be
fastened. Objection, however, could
not be urged, reasonably, against each
side in each case having a hearing and
as this took time, DELAYS were newt
able. Nothing was done during the
morning in re ference to the Alabama
delegates. at large, in whose cases the
administration men completely sur
prised the opponents by mastering
strong and seating the Mosely factions
On strictly test vote between the two
forces the Blaine men have majority
but into some cases other factors enter

the four Alabama delegates-at-l large
was laid on the table and under strictly
parliamentary rules this would end the
matter, except by fight
The first case taken up today was the
Fifth Alabama district, and the dele.
gates seated by the national executive
committee were confirmed in their title
without test of strength between the
Harrison and Blaine men. In the sec.
and fourth districts In louisiana, Kel-
logg and Leonard, or anti administra-
ton, delegates were seated by a viva
voce vote, and in the First Louisiana
district the Yarmouth delegates were
seated unanimously. There was close
vote when 1t came to the Fifth Louisiana
district, but the Warm outh crowd, by
vote OF % to 90, downed the Kellogg fac.
ton. The vote was not strictly a parti-
san one. The testimony conflicted, and
enough delegates to give positive ma
jority voted with the side they thought
had preponderance of evidence This
completed the Louisiana case, the net
result being that eight Kellogg or anti
Harrison and four Yarmouth or Harrison
delegates were seated, a gain of four for
the administration as compared with the
action of the national com mittee.
III Ine rourtn Maryland, by viva
voce vote, Buntin and Clay were dis.
placed and the contestants seated.
This is probably gain of one for Blaine,
but it is not safe to make absolute pre-
dictions as to the votes in these con.
tested cases, as square declarations of
Pre- sidential preferences are not always
obtainable from the delegates whose
seats are in doubt. Thecommittee then

End the SUSPENSE

Harrison Men Want to Have u Ballot and
End the Suspense.
MINNEAPOLIS, June o. Special
The day opens with the leaders of both
the rival forces still claiming success
but evidently somewhat doubtful of
their own prophecies. The night just
passed has not been such as to give
cheer to the followers of either candi
date. The estimates of the past week
have, as delegation after delegation re-
ported, gradually given place to facts
until the conclusion now forces itself
upon the mind Of every conservative
man that each of the two leading candi-
dates is from forty to sixty votes short
of nomination. So, after all, the indi-
cations are that the tenth national Re-
publican convention is to be battle
royal and that the nomination is tn @
property of no man and that the field is
practically open to all of the great lead
ers who have the courage and chiyalry
to enter the contest.
1t has been q sleepless night for those
in whose hands has been placed the
destinies of the rival chieftains of the
Republican party. Conferences in
Vulnerable have been held and all the
allurementS known to political sagacity
held out to wavering delegates in order
to shake their allegiance to the candi-
date of their choice.
The Harrison leaders profess to be
still firm in their resolve to win if they
can, but to go downif they must in
voting for the distinguished son of the
Hoosier State, but the prolonged delay
in positive developments is having its
effect on the sober second thought
among the more conservative men in
the Harrison ranks as we'll as those of
the Blaine ranks.
The chief anxiety with the Harrison
managers now is to force ballot in
order that test Of strength NAV be had
and that the fearful suspense and
anxiety of the week may be brought to
aa close. The policy of the Blaine man.
Ayers is still one of procrastination and
telay. There is no evidence that their
reNndidate has votes sufficient to effect
,vpS nomination on the first ballot. AS

MINNEAroLIs, June 9.--[Speciall-
The most signal feature of the Re-
publican convention to-day was the
adoption of the majority report of
the committee on credentials by the
convention by the decisive vote of
4G3 to 423.
The committee had decided in favor
OF the National committees decisions
in good majority of the cases. but had
revo rsed them more than was agreeable
to the Blaine leaders, who precipitated
the contest in an endeavor to have a
minority report adopted. In this they
were unsuccessful.
The Harrison forces were jubilant
over their first substantial victory, com
ing in partial confirmation of the claims
mado at their private meeting this
afternoon at the Market House. The
Blaine leaders, however, are not by any
means Disconnected.
They claim that the majority report
was adopted by less than dozen votes
over the number necessary to nominate.
and that when the first ballot is taken
the minor candidates will pull Harri-
sons vote down to 400, figure above
which he will not raise in subsequent
ballots.
Moreover on later ballots MANY dele.
gates Blaine at heart, will cut loose
from Harrison and vote their prefer
ences. To this the Harrison leaders
retort that If there were such delegates
they would have voted to seat
the Blaine contestants IN order to give
their alleged favorite all the under
handed assistance possible. But the
Blaine leaders reply that it was too
early for them to show their hands so
plainly.
