WASHINGTON, May 30-The return of
Secretary Blaine to Washington has trans
ferred from New York to the national cap
ital the center of interest in the presiden-
tial campaign. There are ali sorts of ru-
.mors current respecting the intentions o:
the secretary of state, but so far as can be
learned they .are all without foundation;
one was that he had determined to resign
from the cabinet; another was that he had
prepared n statement setting forth his in
tentions with respect to the nomination:
third was that with friends he was hold
ing a conference to determine upon a
course of action. None Of these proved to
be well founded.
Anything WIN start Tongues WagginS.
There were number OF callers at the
residence of the secretary during yester-
day, among them Secretary Elkins. The
latter declined to speak of his converse
ton with Blaine further than to say that
he (Blaine) talked of his nomination as
he has done many times previously in the
past few months. The gossip was con
siderably augmented at late hour last
night by the unexpected arrival in the city
of ex-senator Thomas c. Plat, of New
York. Mr. Platt's visit was wholly
divorced from politics He came here TO
visit his son and daughter-iu-law, and to
return to New York with Mrs Piatt, who
has been the guest Of her children for
