THEY FALL In LINE
The Democrats Quit Fighting
Each Other
TO PIT GROVER AGAINST BLAINE
His Candidacy Sad n n lnsvsnbas,
Ths Psohsbls o0esss of ths Mn
nsspehs csavsndon.

WAsHIseros, May 25.-Ths Kentucky
convention and Mr.. Watterson's speech
last night have served to arouse re-
newed interest in the Democratic con-
test. A friend Of Mr. watterson said
today: ssThe anti Cleveland and the
anti~Hlll men have quit fighting
What do you mean" Was asked.
THAT those democrats VINO feel 1t is
unwise. lmpolitic and dangerous to
nominate either Cleveland or Hill.
have made their last appeal on the
subject They say now TO the friends
OF Cleveland: If you want TO
nominate Mr.. Cleveland and are
wiling 10 assume all RESPONSE
blhty involved IN his candidacy, 60
anead. We have said all that We have
10 say about the matter. the respon-
sibslity rests entirely with you.'"
Continuing tne gentleman said;
"The democrats are OF the opinion
that Secretary Blame will be the re-
publican nominee"
"Is that the reason Why the fight
against Cleveland was dropped?
Ctes.iard Inevitable
"I guess that il it," he said.
sslf Blaine Is the nominee of
ths republicans, Cleveland is his in
tvitable opponent. To select any
other would be TO admit that there u
nothing "a the man nor the issue which
he represents"
The statement cent out from
New York to the effect tina: Blame
would not return to Washing
ton until after the Minneapolis con-
ventlon had been held, but would visit
Maine in the meantime, was . matter
of surprise when made known 10 his
household. When he left Warrington
il was his expressed purpose of return
ing on Thursday. and since his depar-
ture nothing TO the contrary has been
received from HIM. 1t il said also that
the president has no knowledge Of any
intention on the part of the secretary
OF state TO remain away from wash
ington for any such length of time.
Assasapeais Probabilities
Political gossip today, probably ov-
ing TO the presence of Chairman Clark
son in the city and his consultation
with fellow members regarding mat
tors connected with the convention,
turns chiefly upon the organization OF
the convention at Minneapolis A re-
port 10 current that Gen. Horace Por-
ter, the we'll known club man and ora
tor Of New York. will be the temporary
chairman. although OF course this can
not be officially confirmed, inssmuch
- the announcement will not be made
before the meeting OF the committee at
Minneapolis next week. For -perma-
nens chairman several names are mon
toned. prominent among them being
those Of Senator Cullons Of Illinois,
Ex-senator Spencer Of Wisconsin and
Representative Burrows Of Michigan.
Senator Savyer. Mr.. Spconer's old col
league, 10 interesting himself in the
latter's interest and working with his
weli-known energy to secure this honor
for him, and he expresses great con-
fidence that he will be successful.
Messrs. Clarkson and New will leave
Washington on their way to Minne-
apolis on Friday, stopping over enIOnss
at Indianapolis and Chicago. Mr.. Esu
expects TO reach Minneapolis On Aon-
day.
