In general way it appears that Blaine

Blaine Gains.

In point of the popular enthusiasm Blaine
had the best of it today. The arrival of
the Fort Wayne Ind, Blaine Club, Young
Mems Blaine Club of Cincinnati and Ger
tain Blaine delegations from the far West
were made the occasion of successive
demonstrations in behalf of the ex. secretary
of state. Tri-colored plumes are exhibited
by every Blaine club that has arrived in the
city. Blaine badges. blue buttons and
other insignia of the Blaine movement are
seen on every hand.
The Wisconsin delegation met at o'clock
and had rather warm session, lasting
over two hours. 4 number of speeches
were delivered on the question as to whom
the delegation should support for the Prcsi-
dency. National Committeeman PAYNE. in
a speech spoken of as bitter, urged the
claims of Blaines candidacy. Senator

President Harrison. Gen. Fairfield spoke
in favor of the President.

has been generally understood that of the
i6 votes of the state, Harrison would get
nearly three foarths. II was commonly
accepted that the Sherman forces in the
delegation represented the strength OF adj

action of the convention. the Blame would
rest on Blaine, who after lifctime's work
that they all approved, had yielded in his
old age to the Establishments of a parcel of
selfish political bosses.
The caucus was now in an uproar, the
Blaine men shouting and cheering for their
favoritc and made such showing of
strength that the Harrison men gave up
the contest.
Discussion started bv the offering of a
resolution by Judge f.. V. Spencer of Cal
ifornia, endorsing the efforts now being
made to procure an international agreement
for universal free coinage of silver; de-
claring that Congress should provide for
the coinage of all the silver product in our
country and that tariff be levied upon the
imported foreign silver. No vote was taken
on this resolution.

Blaine feeling aroused to high pitch.
The Situation.
The sun goes down without any decisive
gain by either faction. The Harrison man
ayers have succeeded in holding the dele
gates well in hand without a break. The
Blaine side has been reinforced by outside
influence. Ilenccforth the shouting for
the plumcd Knight is likely to become
more and more vociferous, and it is cx-
pected to give tone to the crowd
in the hall. No doubt the President has
the advantage in instructions which bind
many whose choice would be the statesman
from Maine.
The situation is an embarrassing one to
all such. Iowa. for example. is Blaine
state, yet the majority of the delegation will
vote for Harrison. Mr.. Wheeler of that

widest speculation. How most of these
states will ultimately vote no one knows
and of the means being exerted by both
factions to gain the allegiance of delegates
much is said that is unworthy of the gravity
of the situation.
The question now. which is the subject of
the most speculation is, how many candi-
dates are there to be in the field. The pre-
sumption has been that the field would be
left clear to the two great competitors.
The Aiger Boom.
The action of the Michigan delegation to-
day in reasserting their loyalty to the
wolverine candidate seems, however, to
Indicate that this presumption is unwar-
ranted.
The Alger managers are tonight claiming
10 votes for their candidate, maintaining
that in addition to the suppor, of Michigan
he will receive many votes from the West
and South In the event of Alger with
drawing, the Blaine people maintain that
their candidate will receive every vote OF
the Michigan delegation except two, and
the Harrison managers coucede the great
majority of the delegation of the Wolverine
state " i'll probable go to Blaine.
The events of the day have tended to in
crease the animosity between the two lead
ing factions. Heated arguments between
individuals resulted in personal encounters
ON three or four occasions. and once or
twice it seemed as though small sized riot
might be precipitated.

ana marched through the streets and in
