BANKING ON BLA1NE's DEATH.
Alger's Partner Gives Away tho Secret of
Political Boom.

Alger's Partner Gives Away the Secret of
Political Boom.
GAINESVILLE, O., June 3-[SpeciaL +
"Blaine and Alger will be the ticket nomi-
mated at Minneapolis, but it will mean, in
effect, Alger for President, for Blaine will
not live" So said Hon. Clarence A.
Black, the Detroit capitalist and Repub-
lican politician, who is in this city
the guest of friends, he having arrived here
yesterday from Washington where he dined
with President Harrison Wednesday. MI.
Black is one of Detroit's most prominent
citizens. and is not only personal and
close friend of General Alger. but busi-
ness associate in number of enterprises.
He made the remark to a gentleman at
dinner given in the MIchigander's honor
last evening, and the gentleman thinks he
spoke before he thought, but he did not
take it back or qualify it. and the person
addressed had the good taste to not refer to
what he considered slip of the tongue.
Mr. Blacks declaration, coupled with the
report from Minneapolis to-day that Michi-
gan will not present the Generals name in
the event it Is made to appear that Blaine
will accept the nomination, is significant as
an indication that Alger will be held in re-
serve for second place, on the theory that it
is the surest road for him to the Presidency,
as Mr.. Blaine will not be spared to serve
his term.

TEXANS RUSHING TO BLAINE
Their Instructions for Harrison Being
Thrown to the Winds

Their Instructions for Harrison Being
Thrown TO the Winds.
CHICAGO, June 3.-[SpeciaL Trouble is
brewing in Texas for Harrison. The 80 del
egates are all Blaine men and were only
instructed for Harrison with the under
standing that Blaine would not run. Now
that Blaine is reported as in the field the
Texans are coming in for the magnetic
statesman. II. Lock Mcdaniel, Chairman
of the Republican State Central Committee,
and one of the leading delegates from Texas,
said to-day: "We were instructed to vote
for Harrison. This was with the be-
lief and understanding that Blaine
would not permit his name to be used. Har-
rison is merely second choice with us, and
we are all Blaine men. Our State gave
him the biggest vote ever polled there. If
Blaine is nominated shall accept our in
structions in the broadest sense and vote
for Blaine. If he is nominated with his
consent we will all vote for him as he is
the most popular man for our State.
'There will be trouble over the Texas
delegation, as there will be contests. We
were elected by the genuine Republican
party, called the Black and Tan After
our convention number of delegates and
others organized what is called the Lilly
Whites, or the White Mans Republican
Party. They elected delegates at large
and delegates from the Congressional dis
tricts, but don't think that the contest
will amount to anything"

BLAINE'S LAST LETTER WRITTEN.
He Himself Has Said It, and That, Too,
Most Emphatically.
ALGER'S PARTNER GIVES AWAY A PLOT


ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DrsPArcH.l
WASHINGTON, June 3.-Mr. Blaine
stated authorita lively to-day that he would
write NO further letters, kilograms or COM
muni cations of any sort about the nomlna-
tion, and he appears determined to adhere
to the decision, although he is constantly
subjected to the strongest kind of pressure
to define his position in writing.
Many requests of this sort have been re-
ceived by him to-day from his friends in the
West, and it is said that a telegram arrived
here this afternoon from Chauncey M.
Depew urging that Blaine's silence was
threatening to disrupt the party at Mime
apolis, and that he ought to inform the
delegates at once, and in plain language,
whether he proposed to be a candidate or
not.
A vigorous effort is to be made by the
Harrison men here, based on this intimation
from Minneapolis, to shake the Secretary's
determination.
Evidences are multiplying that Secretary
Elkins, Secretary Tracy and other Harrison
chieftains have been getting in great deal
of the finest kind of work upon Secretary
Blaine in the interest of the President, and
some of the Presidents friends assert that
the result of these efforts will be seen before
Sunday, in a shape which will carry dismay
to the anti-Harrison crowd. Against these
boasts the Blaine men content themselves
with pointing to the Secretary's firm an
nouncement: 81 will write no more letters"

MISSOURI IS MIXKH
Chauncey I. Filley Thinks Blaine Will Get
Most of Her Votes

Chauncey I. Filley Thinks Blaine Will Get
Most of Her Votes
MINNEAPOLIS, June 3.-Chauncey L
Filley, Of St. Louis, delegate at large, said
to-day that he believed his delegation
would obey its instructions and vote for
Harrison, at least on the first ballot. He
thought, however, Missouri would cast two
thirds of its votes for Blaine, with Harri-
son out of the way, but beyond that he
made no predictions. "We are not all in
structed now," said he. "Some of our dele
gates refused to be instructed. In one dis
trict they got up on their hind legs and
howled They told the convention if
Blaine's name was presented they would
disregard the Instructions
This, of course, was Filley talking about
another delegate. He said he should vote
for Harrison, and he thought it probable
that all the delegates would do the same.

BLAINE MISSIONARIES AT WORE.

Delegates From Three States Being Won
Over to the Maine Man.
NIAGARA FALLS, June 3.-[SpeciaL i
A special train containing 125 Republican
delegates and politicians from the States of
Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont, en-
route to the Republican National Conven-
tion at Minneapolis, arrived on the Rome,
Watertown and Ogdensburg Railroad to-
day shortly before II o'clock. The delega-
tion went to the Cataract House for lunch,
and left over the Michigan Central on their
train of six Wagner sleepers, a coach and
baggage car for Chicago at 1:30 o'clock this
afternoon.
Thedelegates were interviewed in hur-
ried manner by THE DISPATCH corres-
pondent The Blaine septiment predomi-
mated. In fact, of all the prominent
politicians the only one for Harrison out
and out was Ex-Governor Cheney, of New
Hampshire. The Blaine men were very
enthusiastic, particularly those from Maine,
and the few Harrison followers were being
won over by Blaine missionaries.

firm, is based on billets at s2e 50. the same as
the present scale, but the minimum basis is
reduced to "a instead OF $25 as at present.
As billets are near the $22 mark now that
means clear reduction to start with Of
about II per cent for every man in the great
plant who works by tonnage. Then, in ad
dttion, every job except two or three
in each department receives q reduction,
in many cases amounting to over 25 per
cent. This, with the reduction in the selling
price of billets, makes q grand reduction of
over 40 cent. It would be impos sible under
this scale for many of ms to make as much as
we could at ordinary laboring wages. There
Is no question in my mind that the proposed
scale will be rejected by the Amaigamated
men, and If that means strike the
men will be found in line as they were three
years ago when the Sheriff was called in as
mediator. I am sorry, but 1 fear trouble
will come.
The firm is evidently preparing for fight
with labor The large property has been
inclosed by ten-foot close fence along the
railroad and township road, extending
above Munhall station. This prevents any
trespass, and when the fence is completed
all gates can be securely closed. The
Amalgamated and its members are watch
ing every move. When the strike comes,
and it seems imminent, it will be the most
bitter this section has ever seen.

An Illinois Office Holder for Harrison.

MINNEAPOLIS, June 3.-Miles Kehoe,
an Illinois delegate at large, is for Har-

4S delegates from his State will be with him
supporting the President and possibly
some of the others. He SAYS he likes Blaine,
but feels it would be dishonorable for
Blaine to accept. 'Then," he added,

NEW YORK, June 3-Chairman Murphy,

sued call for conference of the regular
Democratic State delegation to the Ma

New York meeting it will be proposed that
in case the National Committee refuses to
admit any portion of the contesting dele
gates the regular delegates will stay by
Mr.. Hill, but if any Syracuse delegates are
admitted, the February delegates are to
change their allegiance to Roswell P.
Flower, discarding both Mr. Hill and Mr..

ONE OF THE BLAINE PROGRAMMES
Based on tho Alleged Existence OF a Letter
From the Secretary to Foraker

Based on tho Alleged Existence OF Letter
From the Secretary to Foraker.
CHICAGO, June 3.-[SpeciaL Among
politicians here to-day it was said that an
other programme had been made out for the
nomination of Blaine by the reading of a
personal letter from him to Foraker, of
Ohio. Foraker is credited with now having
the letter in his possession, but is unable to
make it public without violating his agree
ment with Blaine.
When nominations are in order in Mime
apolis Foraker will cite his authority from
Blaine direct for nominating him for Pres
dent. Blaine's disappointment of eight
years ago still rankles in his breast, and the
letter cannot be used or even limited at,
should not a number of delegates in favor Of
Blaine guarantee success. He will not con-
sent to second humiliation.

AS Federal officehol older, feel little

Louisiana is for Harrison, and that the elec-
torial vote of that State will be cast for him
this fall. OF course, you know that we have
a contesting delegation. The State Commit
tee split over the lottery question, and the
anti.fottery people, with whom I am affiIi-
ated, nominated ticket which 1 am sure
will be seated. Both delegations are in
structed for Harrison. We are going to
carry Louisiana this year, and for that
reason we mean to have something to say
at Minneapolis. The sugar, rice and lumber
interests are very strongly for Harrison and
the Republican ticket, because of what the
Mckinley bill has done for them.
