M'KINLEY HAS A CHANCE.
Cool-Headed Leaders Beginning
IN Consider Him,

to Consider Him.
The charges made against each other
bv the representatives of the two can
didateS and the struggle to control the
doubtful vote has made much trouble.
and today the Republican party at Min
neapolis is split wide upon. Some of
the cooler men high in party councils
say that there Is only one way to heal
the breach-by the selection of a COM
promise candidate. This feeling Is
what has given strength to the McKIn-
lev boom in the last two days, and has
started several movements. Mr.. Nc
KinIey has shown his sincerity in the
support of Gen. Harrison in the most
emphatic way. He has been Outspo ken
for him on all occasions, and has refused
to countenance for moment the dis
cussion of his own name.
He became very angry yesterday when
some one in his presence spoke OF MIN
as a possible. candidate. Shaking his
finger emphatically in the mans face,
Mai. Mckinley said: ANY man who
mentions my name in connection with
the nomination while Gen. Harrison is
in the race is no friend of mine" But
it is not as an opponent TO Gen. Harri-
son that Mr.. Mckinley is discussed. His
name is mentioned at the head of the
list of compromises possible if Gen.
HarriSon'S friends decide at any time to
withdraw his name in favor of any one
else. There is no doubt, however, that
number of votes will be cast for Maj.
Mckinley on the first ballot in spite of
his protest.
The weakest of the booms is that of
Gen. Alger. The Michigan men are hav-
ing difficulty to hold the delegates to-
gether. They realize that the cOmpli-
ment intended to Alger will fall fiat if
the solid Michigan delegation does not
vote for him on the first ballot.
Since the arrival of Mckinley and up
to today he has been left free to occupy
his rooms without molestatiOn, what
callers he has had being principally
members of the Ohio delegation, but
after today's session of the, convention
all this was changed. Whether his Selec-
ton as permanent chairman OF the men
ton of his name as a dark horse, his
rooms were crowded by members OF diff
ferent delegations. They did not talk
horse, as they expressed it. They had
only dropped in to have the pleasure OF
making his acquaintance, and shake his
hand. For hours at time McKinley's
quarters looked like the rendezvous OF a
| full-fledged candidate.

RUsK MAY STEP IN.
Western Delegates All Regard
Him Favorably.

western OoieSdteS All hcSdEO
Him Favorably.
Among the Western and Northwestern
delegates there is very friendly feel
ing manifested towards Hon. Jeremiah
Rusk, of Wisconsin. now member of
President Harrlson's cabinet as Secre-
tary of agriculture. This tendency to-
ward Rusk as a compromise candidate
naturally comes from the Western Har-
rison delegates, but it is also being
manifested by many others who favor
the secretary of agriculture because of
their conviction that he would poll an
immense vote among the farmers and
certainly hold steadfast to Republican
ism the States of Indiana, Iowa, Kansas.
and certain other states where the
Farmers Alliance is organized and ag-
greSSiVe.
Of course, the nomination of Rusk for
the first place would turn eyes eastward
for a vice presidential candidate, and
when the name of the secretary of agri-
culture is mentioned for the first place,
it is generally in conjunction with that
of Whitelaw Reid or some other proml-
nent New Yorker for the vice presi-
dency. So far as can be observed. the
Wisconsin friends of Mr.. Rusk are max
ing no effort whatever in behalf OF MS
candidacy. evidently feeling that the
first movement in his favor should
come from the outside, when his own
state delegation can be easily wheeled
into line for the great farmer candidate.

There were sensational and conflict
ing rumors about the Massachusetts del
egation. In the afternoon one Of the
delegates said the delegation was ar
ranging to go solid to Reed or Mckln-
lev. Then story was published in an
extra edition OF an evening paper that
% of the so delegates had agreed to go
to Reed on the first ballot. There is
grain of truth in both these statements
but no bigger than the grain OF salt with
which both must be taken.
The Massachusetts, delegation held a
meeting this morning, at which Mr.
Fairchild, of Boston, who had been
credited to the Blaine forces, moved the
delegation would cast its solid vote on.
the first ballot for Reed. MIR. Atwood,
who is Mckinley man, moved to sub
stitute Mckinley for Reed. Neither
proposition was seconded. Then Jesse
NJ. Cove. of Holyoke, ''the original
Blaine man." suggested that the matter
would better be postponed. So the de-
egation adjourned till 9 this evening
when another attempt will be made to
unite on dark horse.
There is a general tendency on the
part of the conservative delegates OF
both factions, as we'll as on the part of
all uneommitted delegates. to look
kindly towards a compromise candidate,
and, in the failure of both Blaine and
Harrison to receive the nomination on
the first ballot, it is not improbable that
the leaders of both factions might find
their following swept away by the pop
ular demand for a compromise candi-
date who has been free from all fac
tional rivalry and can save the party in
November.
The delegation got together again
this evening. MIR. Grape, in calling
the meeting to order. said that it was
held for the purpose of giving the dele
CATION all opportunity to unite on some
Massachusetts or New England man.
He called for personal preferences.
Some one suggested that the delegation
vote as unit for Reed. Some one,
also. suggested that the delegation vote
for Blaine. but several delegates said
they were pledged to Harrison, and
they proposed to vote for him. Then
some one moved an adjournment, and
without action of any kind the meeting
broke up.

The entire day was spent trying to
bring these men into line so as to give
Gen. Alger the full vote of Michigan at
least on the first ballot but without
effect.

Dangerous Tactics Adopted by
Ben's Managers.
A group of colored delegates were
sitting in the cosy headquarters OF the
Georgia delegation tonight. discussing
the outlook. Nearly all OF them were
for Harrison. but they were as mad as
hornets. and strange to say, their anger
was against some of the very men
whose interest it was TO keep them III

some of the Harrison managers, who, Il

men In making this charge. they
thought, was not So much because they
knew of any particular Southern dele
gates who were likely TO be Influenced
TO vote for Blaine. but simply to frlghlen
them and cause them to feel they were
suspected.
This group o6delegates seemed to IN
derstand the motive, and were bitter IN
their denunciation of it. As one put 1t:

FILLEY TURNED DOWN.
uarrison's Friend Kerens the New
Committeeman.

Committeeman.
The selection of r. c. Kerens fer ma
tionar committeeman from Missouri is
significant so far as concerns politics in
the state of Missouri. 1t indicates that
the Kerens men have succeeded in over
throwing Chauncey l. Filley, the we'll
known Quaker-attired politician, who
has been for years the boss of Missouri
politics. Filley has always had opposi-
ton. but heretofore has pulled through.
There was quite an exciting time this
morning in the meeting of the Missouri
delegation; KerenS was chosen commit
teeman by vote of Is to Is fol- Filley,
one for Mai. Warner and one absent.
In the present political fight Fllley
has been for Blaine and KerenS for
Harrison. The Missouri delegation is
little slow about going on record on the
presidential nomination, but the prOba-
biIities are that Harrison has twenty
one or twenty-five out of the thirty-four
delegates. The trouble in the Missouri
delegation got very hot before the meet
ing was over. Maj. Warner and Dis
trict Attorney Reynolds, both of whom
are for Harrison, came to blows. Both
are imDetuOHS, h0t-headed men, and a
row of words terminated in Maj. War
ner shooting out his fist with such
effect that Reynolds was knocked down.
Afterwards a reconciliation was eff
feeted. ,

On a Vote He May Hold the Bal
ance of Power
Of the two distinguished Americans
who have been so assiduously urged by
their friends for the past week for the
presidential nomination, neither to-
night appears to have assurance of
sufficient votes to. effect a nOmina-
ton. The seeker after accurate
information as to the relative standing
of these two candidates is compelled to
discard as extravaganza and quite mis-
leading the figures issued from the
headquarters of each. and a care
full analysis of expressed preferences of
all the delegations. together with the
classification of the uncOmmitted dele
gates, shows that the two leading can
didateS are each from twenty-five to
fifty votes short of the nomination.
The balance of power. if ballot had
been taken today, would have been
found to have rested with Gen. Russell
A. Alger. of Michigan, who would GER
talnly have received from forty to sixty
votes, and thus prevented either of the
two leading candidates from receiving
the requisite number for nomination.

BLAINE AN UNCERTAINTY.
His Name May Not Be Formally
Presented.

The Blaine people state this evening
that it is not yet decided that the name
of their candidate will be presented to
the convention at all. 1t may be found
advisable TO vote for him without the
formality of nomination, but in case
it is decided to place him formally in
nomination, ex-Gov. Foraker, of Ohio,
will certainly make the leading speech.
Harrison will be placed in domination
by the venerable eX-secretary OF the
navy. Richard W. ThOmpson,o of Indiana;
and the nomination will be seconded by
Hon. Chauncey NJ. Depew, of New York,
ION behalf of the great American ma
ton" The other nominating speeches
will probably be made by ex-senator
John c. Spooner, of Wisconsin; Hon.
John Y. Massey, of Delaware; Hon:
Louis E. McComas. of Maryland, and
possibly by ex-senator John j. ingalls,,
of Kansas, and others.
