Douglass had not applied for his ticket
in proper form, and consequently there
could be no ticket issued TO him. General
Lew Wallace attempted to secure an add-
tiOnal ticket and was met with like re-
spOnse. The subject was matter of com.
mon talk among the delegates at the
Indiana headquarters this morning, and it
was decided to make move to trace down
the matter and fix the responsibility where
1t belonged. 1t also leaked out that a great
many of the Indiana Blaine crowd who are
here from Indianapolis and Fort Wayne
are in reality Democrats, and some
of them, wearing Blaine badges, are
well-known ward-heelers. who are here
in politics for the per diem they get out of
it. Others who are Republicans say they
were brought to Minneapolis to shout for
Blaine and their expenses were paid. On
the outside OF their coats they wear Blaine
badges but on their vests and their hearts
they are true to Harrison. This, of course,
is very vigorously denied by the Blaine
men. who say they are acting with perfect
fairness, but the facts seem to be against
them, and they are placed in bad light.

The Blaine Boomers Accused of Packing the
Convention.
MINNEAPoLIs, June S.-Grave charges
are being made tonight of the unfairness of
the National Committee and the anti Har-
rison leaders are accused, and with much
show of fact, of using every means, legiti-
mate and otherwise, to stampede the con-
ventiOn for Blaine. They have had the
machinery of the convention in their
hands. ClarksOn, as chairman Of the COM
mittee, and Meek. as argeant-at-arms,
have had the means of making the specta-
tor element any complexion they desired
Meek is the fOutainhead of the tickets of
admission, and right ably has he worked
his prerogative against the Harrison influ-
ence. The claim was made openly and with
out reserve that all the Blaine needed to do
10 get their friends into the convention was
TO apply to Meek. The assistant sergeant
alarms too was posted, and efforts were
made TO keep reporters Of the adminstra-
ton papers out Of the hall upon
the slightest prelext or without pretext. So
far has this feeling been permitted to 60

celored Republican, could not gain admit

at Chicago eight years ago. Mr.. Joy urged
upon the delegation not to think of voting
for Blaine. and advised them that II they
would not support the President to 60 to
compromise candidate.
The sender is man Of great political in
fluence and sagacity, and it Is said
that his personal relations with Mr..
Blaine are OF the most pleasant nature.
He is influenced in his action solely by the
fact that he does not regard Mr.. Blaine as
the logical candidate at this time, and fears,
in the event of the contest being followed
up between the President and his late pre-
mier. that the ticket thus nominated would
be endangered at the polls.
The telegrams Of this kind and from men
OF such standing and reputation continued
TO keep the wires hot from all parts of the
Union, and are doing much to pave the way
for the throwing overheard Of both leaders
In favor Of dark horse, if it can be done.
This has been one Of the most stuDbornly
contested days of the fight. and there is
very little change in the situation beyond
the fact that the third-canddate men are
becoming more numerous and more open in
their declarations.
The Harrison men are still standing TO-
gether with bulldog tenacity that shows
superb political management. Scarcely a
man has wayered in spite of the bandish-
ments and arguments Of Clarkson, Quay
and Plat, who have often labored before to
snatch victory from what looked like defeat.
Hour after hour their headquarters have

There was also greet demonstration of
applause when the Illinois delegation
marched proudly in, barring banner, upon
which wer inscribed the names in gold OF
Illinois, Lincoln Grant and Logan.
The banner was reminder, perhaps. to
the local committee of their neglect in fail
ing to provide markers TO distinguish the
various delegations. Illinois determined to
have one of her own yesterday, and 1t will
be preserved as a relic of the greatest con-
vention in the country's history.
As ON the day before the convention was
on the watch for distinguished men. It
did not watch in vain. Mckinley was so
soon to relinquish his craftsmanship of
the Ohio delegation to assume the
leadership of the convention that he
caused first loud cheers. while the hidden
band gave out America" The champion of
protection had an unusually calm face and,
under tine skyight. the olive complexion of
Napoleon l, making the oft-remarked re-
semblance even stronger. He was pale, too, as
if there was press of care upon him. Per-
haps it was caused by the importunate
delegates who have been urging him to be
candidate for President
Soon afteTward the swarthy face and
shocky white hair of Fred Douglass
lowered above the crowds in the
center aisle, and the old man who
was once a despised slave, was cneered
loudly in convention of white brothers,
who welcomed him as one of Americas
greatest men. He wore a Harrison badge.
Then came ingalls,, conspicuous for his
white hair, his inevitable eyeglasses and
spring suit of light colored material.
But the convention was looking for new
"hosses." Reed. broad shouldered and

of the different aspirants are beginning to
kick themselves for their hasty action.
Mckinley IS GROWING.
There Is Heard More Frequent Talk of a Dark
Horse

Horse.
MINNEAPOLIS, June S.-With all the talk
of dark horse which is being INDUCED in
and which will not down in spite of the
efforts of the friends of the other men. there
is one difficulty which is directly in the way
of the selection of compromise candidate,
and that is the almost utter imp0ssibility of
either man to shift his votes.
Quay knows. as well, perhaps, as any
man in the convention, just what the chance
would be in making an experiment OF that
kind. He realizes from experience that a
change Of base in the face Of the enemy is at
all times a risky undertaking, and he IS not
the man TO take any chances il it can be
avoided. To attempt at this time to pull
Blaine out Of the fight and throw his
strength to a third man would be to risk the
almost absolute certainty of enough Of them
going to Harrison to renominate tue Presi-
dent
In fact, It Is almost certain that of the large
number Of votes which would be cast for
Blaine in the convention so long as he is in
the fight. there is a goOdly number who, if
Blaine were withdrawn, would go to Har-
risOn.
The same thing applies with equal force
from a Harrison standpoint New is
equally as shrewd as Quay, and he. too,
knows that under no circumstances could
the name of the President be taken out of
the contest and his vote transferred in q
block to a third man.
This is the situation in a nutshell, and
this, combined with the fact that both
sides fear their weakness, is why il will be
difficult for a dark horse to win. The only
way in which it could be done, so say the
men who have fought the battles of the
party for years, is by gradual falling away
Of the forces without allowing a general
break.
In this way Mckinley would be nOmi-
mated and if a second ballot was necessary
and it was found that neither Harrison nor
Blaine had votes enough to reach a nomina-
tiOn. it is probable that a gradual shift
would be made toward the Ohio Governor.
Massachusetts, and Ohio as indicated last
night, arc ready to go to him on the second
ballot; and the California delegation, which
at present IS equally divided between Blaine
and Harrison, is TO a man for Mckinley for
second choice In fact, they are already
discussing him as possibility. and there Is
not a man in tie delegation who does not
regard bis candidacy with favor. They look
upon him as a man who can harmonic the
warring factions of the party. He has not
allowed himself to drift into any entangle-
ment which would embarrass him in the
event of his nomination, and he has Oecu-
pied at all times, as now, dignifed and
conservative stand which has gathered
friends rather than created enemies.

eR0WLNG m BITTERNESS
The EghtBetweeH Harrison and Blaine Seems
Nearly Irreco1cilabje.

MINNEAPOLIS, June 6.-The fight be-
tween Blaine and Harrison is undoubtedly
one of personal feeling, and this fact is dis
played In the action of their managers.
One hears on every side charges of the most
harsh nature made against both the Presi-
dent and the ex-Secretary Of State, and
emanating from men who are close to both
and who evidently know what they are
talking about.
The Blaine men are especially bitter
against the Cabinet officers for what they
openly denounced as their unfairness and
ingTatitude in allowing themselves TO 90 on
record through public interviews as hostile
personally TO Mr.. Blaine. Wanamaser and
Attorney General Miller are the two most
abused by the Quay crowd, and one hears
ugly things said about them with monoto-
nous frequency.
On the other hand, the Harrison boomers
claim that the Blaine fight is the outgrowth
Of a conspiracy which was begun a year
ago and of which Mr.. Blaine has been
cognizant all the time. They also allege,
with a considerable show of viDdictiYeneSs,
that Nj Blaine. in addition to bis letter to
ClarksOB, personally assured the President
time after time that he was not an aspirant
not be an aspirant.
This, they say, largely influenced the
Presdent1n his determination to endeaYor
TO succeed himself and placed him in posi-
tion from which he conld not well Tecede
without being open to the accusation of
weakness.
These are the stories upon which the
changes are constantly rung and which
have made the feeling intense-so intense,
in fact, that the adherents of either man
would 90 away from Minneapolis in the
event of defeat sore-hearted and determined
to assume a mastery inactivity in tile cam

The only solution of the problem, there
fore, In the opinion of the conservative and
solid element Of the party, is tie selection
Of some man like Mckinley, who could at
this time step into the breach and heal all
soreness.
One significant fact came to light to-day
which shows the general trend Of opinion
among the men who form the bone and
sinew of the party. / was assured by one
of the delegates from Michigan that it was
an uDdoubted fact that they received tele

TO THROW BLAINE OVER.
Quay and ciarkSon We're Not Sincere in His
Support.


MINNEAPOLIS, June 8.-The Harrison
men have been badly handicapped by the
National Committee, through the machina-
tions Of ClarksOn, who has used every
means at his command to give them the
worst of it.
Whether by chance or design. the CON-
mittee's diagram put the administration
forces in a compact body In the center OF
the hall with the administration delegates
encrcling them on the outskirts. This will,
of course, enable the Blaine leaders to get
together for consultation at moments no.
tice, but will compel the Harrison managers
to come together from all parts OF the hall.
while Depew and Cullom are so near to the
Blaine captains as to be able to watch their
movements and summon their other leaders
by messenger.
Clarkson, Bassett and Conger have had
the placing of the armies for the battle and
they have used military skill in certering
their own troops directly under the eyes OF
the National Committee, while they have
scattered the Administration forces as
widely as possible. with all the Southern
delegates In the rear.
II the battle goes against Blaine 1t will be
through no fault of his managers in laying
out the battlefield. This was readily seen

reply, that we will not be ready before to-
morrow"
The time asked was granted.
Chairman Lockwood of Idaho next read
the report of the committe on permanent
organization, and cheer after cheer went up
wien he announced that the committee had
decided upon William Mckinley for per-
manent chairman. Hats were waved and
thousands of handkerchiefs flaunted in the
air as the cries became more deafening.
The applause was so loud that no one
cared to hear who the under officers of the
convention were. The next burst of even
louder applause was when Samuel Fessen-
den of Connecticut and Senator SpoOner
and Malone of Virginia as an escort brought
Governor Mckinley forward.
The lavender and gold badge, beautiful
If only in its simplicity and costliness. was
pinned upon him. taking the place Of the
two gorgeous rosettes and glaring badges OF
Ohio.
The Ohio delegation arose to greet their
chief and their example was followed all
over the hail.
Mckinley, always an expressive, clear
cut speaker, in thought and information, was
never better, having reserved his strength
by refusing to speak for the different "bl0w-

by their location when the delegates were
all in their seats. In all of this ClarksOn is
being very roundly denounced, and the Har-
TisOn men are openly accusing him of using
every unfair advantage merely to further
his own selfish ends.
Long after midnight the fight in the ere
dentials committee was still going on, and
it now looks as if they would be ready to
report when the convention is called to or
der in the morning. Both sides are making
a very stubborn contest and neither is will
ing to cOncede an inch. One of their num-
Der told me at late hour tonight that he
would not be at all surprised If they de-
layed matters for two or thI ee days under
pretext of takng evidence, and that nomi-
nations might not be made before Saturday
on Monday.
This is evidently in tune with the policy
of the Blaine men. who are fighting every
where for the delay in the hope of mixing
things up.
From. this it is believed more strongly all
the time that Quay and ClarksOn were
never sincere in their advocacy of Blaine,
but went into the thing solely to beat Har-
rison first and tnen to pick out their man.
They would willingly now, as it looks, dump
him overheard in favor of anew man if they
could, out there is just where the shoe
pinches. They don't know how to let go.
