STILL FOR BLAINE.
Republican Leaders Who Think
He Will Be Nominated.
BOYD REMOVES THAYER's MEN.
Harrison Sure OF the Indiana Delegation
1t Minneapolis-Iows Giving up
Prohibition as Failure.

WASHINGTON CITY, March 3ISpeciaL lit is
becoming apparent that in this section OF the
United states there are q great many people
who think that Secretary Blaine Is still IN the
list of possible presidential candidates. Inc
New York World today had lengthy dlspatcn
from Washington City giving in some detail the
plans OF certain Republican leaders, who, IL Is
claimed, have entered into a combination to de-
feat President Harrison's denomination. The TACT
that such a combination has been formed was
printed more than a week ago, and late develop
ments indicate that there is considerable ioun-
dation for the story that the combination mas
secured strength enough to organize the MIME
apolis convention against President Harrison
1t has several times been intimated thai the
combination would try to swing the convention
to Blaine and the World today holds that such
a plan has been fully decided upon. The
World also claims to have information
proving that if the nomination comes
to Mr.. Blaine without any enort on
his part he will accept it. The Words article
was discussed by prominent senators In the
cloakrooms OF the Senate this afternoon, and
there were several who admitted that gooo
deal of the story was founded on fact.
Senator Squire was one OF them VINO mas goue
on record today as stating that everything
pointed toward the nomination OF Mr.. Blaine
at tho Minneapolis convention. In an Inter
view with correspondent OF New York paper
Senator Washburn said that the sentiment
was again changing toward Blaine, and the
interest in his candidacy, he believed, would Do
so great during the next few weeks that no
power on earth could prevent his nomination at
the national convention. None Of Blaines
friends, However, have any information to show
that If the nomination Is rendered him ne VIII
accept it. Some OF his staunchest supporters
say that they believe his letter OF declination
several weeks ago was final, and that he could
not be prevailed upon to accept the honor If it
were thrust upon him unanimously.

The British CONQUEST of Africa.

LONDON, March Sin the commons this even
ing Balfour's motion to hold morning SIT
tings for the remainder of the session was
strongly opposed by Gladstone, who, however,
said he would agree to the motion If 1t should
apply only until Easter. Balfour accepted the
suggestion, and the motion was carried.
long debate ensued on the proposition TO
vote 10000 for the survey for a railway from
Mombasa to Victoria Nyanza. Bryce declared
that parliament was practically asked to take the
first step toward the annexation OF that
territory and they should pause before making
the fatal descent
Gladstone wanted 10 know what guarantee
there was that it would be Q bloodless opera
ton.
Goschen replied that treaties had been con.
cluded with the chiefs along the route.
Gladstone said:

There ought to be motion for the production
OF the papers. 1t is treating the House with
disrespeet. The government is assuming the
authority which 1t has disclaimed previous
ly. The case of the government is q perfect
blank.
The proceedings, he believed, were without
precedent in the history of this or any other ad-
ministration. The debate was then adjourned.

The New Ministry Declares That Priests
Must Let Politics Alone.

PARIS, March AIT the opening session OF the
chamber OF deputies today Prime Minister Lou
bet and the other members of the new cabinet
entered the chamber and took their seats. Lou
bet Immediately afterwsrd assembled the tribune
and read a declaration of ministerial policy.
He referred to the difficulties of the task the
ministers had undertaken, and said they relied
upon the clearness of this declaration to enable
the chamber to say AZ the outset whether the
ministry were to expect the confidence OF the
House. The primary object OF the ministerial
policy, he said, was defense OF all the laws of
the republic, especially the laws relative to mil
itary patriotism, equality and education. The
relations now existing in France between the
church and state have given rise, Loubet con-
tinued, to many incidents and to varied discus
sions. These involved questions were so numer
GUS and so complex as to obscure the underlying
principles. We have not light enough yet
TO the principles involved to guide us in this
matter, but is 1t not our duty to consider
whether we are not called upon to prepare the
way for a separation of church and state. even
though we may not believe there exists in this
country msjority favorable to carrying out
such a measure?
We recognize that course to be our duty and
to maintain firmly the existing legislation,
based upon the copcordat, which we shall apply
in the true spirit % its requirements. This
clergy. At the same time 1t imposes on them,
whatever their rank may be, certain strict obli-
national laws, but are bound to confine them
selves 70 their ministry and to keep aloof from
party struggles and discussions. We shall un-
hesitatingly require from all observance of these
obligations and we believe we are armed with
sufficient power to enforce such observance.
After the declaration was read the govern
ment, replying to the question, denied that
there was any engagement between the govern
ment and the pope. Debate on this subject con-
tinued at great length and finally a motion ap-
proving the governments explanation of the
clerical question was carried by vote of SAL
tog1.
The ministerial statement has been received
coolly by the public, and it is regarded as poor
composition. 1t is regarded as leaving the cler-
ical question In statu quo

MIR. FOSTER IN LONDON.
A Talk With the Secretary on Immigra
tion and Silver.

LONDON, March 3-Minister Lincoln escorted
Secretary OF the Treasury Foster to the house OF
commons today, whore they listened to the de-
bate. Mr.. Foster will go to Brighton tomorrow
and start for Paris Saturday. In speaking of his
visit to the commons Secretary Foster said this
evening that what struck him most was the
droIling and hesitating way of speaking, in
strong contrast with our direct and more earnest
style Gladstone approached nearest to our
American idea OF good speaker. Balfour and
Labouchere also pleased him.
Secretary Foster said he had been questioned
frequently in regard to the report Of the United
States immigration commission. Referring to
comments on the question of sending ex-con-
victs to America he said the questions in parlia-
ment were based on a Misrepresentation of the
report The whole commission was not re-
sponsible for this. The story about the COM
missioners had its origin in Mr.. Sehultz's
report His mistake was made in taking the
statement that 90 900 acres of productive
land is lying idle here. Mr.. Foster said he did
not know where Mr.. Powderly got this esti-
mate. He would not say that Powderly's report
had partisan bias, but naturally he reports in
behalf OF those he feels with Congress, he
said, will be good judge of that statement
The secretary said he was glad to hear that the
great shipping companies are ready to help the
United States government in its effort to correct
abuses.
The secretary was asked If he could say
whether Gosehen showed signs of agreeing to
the international currency conference. He said
his coming here had nothing to do with that
The United States would certainly assent to the
conference on the basis of the declaration made
by the English delegates at the Paris confer
enee. When asked If he had not reason to know
that Goschen expects the Washington City gov
eminent to take the initiative and that he
would accept the American invitation, Foster
declined to say further than that the position of
affairs would not justify any statement About
France and Germany cooperating he was
equally silent.
