MINNEAPOLIS, June 0.--The Presidential
ftnation took very significant turn last
Hight, one fraught with possibilities of
lIeat importance to the result. An ex-
Minded conference, lasting nearly three
xpurs was held by the leaders of the
Maine forces in the Colorado headquarters
hid nearly all the chief politicians Of the
flrious state delegations were summoned
fom time to time.
" In this gathering there were Chairman
0arkson, Senator Quay, Senators Teller
md Wolcott, Senator Washburn and Sen
ator Higgins Of Delaware. At this meeting
Vns discussed, at great length, the advis-
Hility of taking measures to draw off the
Harrison vote and thereby effect the
Generalization of his forces and result
Ultimately either in the nomination Of
Blaine or some one of the dark horses
whose candidacy was to be encouraged.
Several of the Harrison men of the Iowa
delegation were invited into the confer
e11ce, and suggestion delicately conveyed
toitkem that If the entire vote of Iowa
slDuld be cast for Allison he would receive
The vote of Delaware, thus possibly Great
~ other scattering votes in different To-
Mites.
The Harrison men of the Iowa delega-
Non, however, did not receive this sllg-
koation with any great enthusiasm, and
mpeared disposed TO abide fully by the
reSult of the afternoon conference wherein
twas decided that Allison should not be
brought out as a prominent candidate, at
csist until after the first ballot in the con-
sention shouldfail TO effect a nomination.
eertain Mckinley men of Ohio delega-
uor'Nere also summoned. The confer
cc Nnally came to close without any
Nuifo agreement. At the conclusion Of
0co},ference it was noticeable that the
UHinley boom had in some mysterious
Inner received quite an impetus. as the
Tsrnors eligibility was freely discussed
many quarters.
