THIS COMES FROM BALTIMORE.
A Remarkable Yarn Told of Private
Conversation.

BALTIMORE, Md, April THE News
this afternoon prints a conversation over
heard between Senator Hiscock of New
York and four Republicans from that
state, in which the Senator said:
''Blaine is too sick to take the Presiden-
tial nomination; Alger's record shuts
him out; Sherman is more unpopular
than Harrison, and we will be obliged
when the convention meets to renominate
him or repudiate the administration OF
the last four years. In my opinion, it
doesn't make much difference whom we
nominate, for he is doomed to be beaten.
The Democrats will have to nominate
Cleveland, and he will be elected. Blaine
is the only man who could have any
chance of election and it would be hard
squeeze to elect him, but he is out Of the
race now, and if he be nominated
don't believe he would live week. As
long as the present system of disposing
of patronage lasts, the administration
will change every four years and disap-
pointed Office seekers will do it if moth
ing else does. There has been more dis
appointments and more heart burning
over Harrison's appointments and those
of his subordinates than during any 9th
er administration within my recollec-

How the Good News Was Received by the
Successful Candidates.
PROVIDENCE, R. T., April 1.-THE news
of this morning, changing the election
figures so as to give the Republican state
ticket clear majority in total vote
nearly 10000 in excess of that ever
thrown before in a Rhode Island cleo
ton, caused great rejoicing among the
Republicans. In fact, the celebration
began as soon as it was known that the
legislature was safe and each additional
piece of news only served to increase the
general feeling of JOY.
At l o'clock this morning the Fourth
Ward Republican Club rallied in force
and, with band, marched to Governor
elect Browns store on Exchange place,
and there lit up the streets with blazing
tar barrels, while a salute of 100 guns
was fired. The members of the club
passed into the store and fairly over
whelmed the governor with their hearty
congratulations.
Senator Aldrich was no less happy.
Governor Ladd, Governor-elect Brown
and Speaker Capron and a large company
of friends rendered their congratulations
and his private office was filled with a
Jolly crowd until far into the morning.
Dispatches were sent to Governor Nc
Kinley and Hon. Thomas B. Reed. The
Demoera folded their tents like the
Arabs and stole away in the darkness
