his Blaine colleagues OF the Com
mittse on Resoluho,ls Nonh have q
within their power further - delay tne
balloting b delaying the report ct the
Committee on Resolutions and forcing
en- adjournment for another day. Eyen
the presentation OF candidates, accord
ing 10 the rules. cannot be made until
after the reports Of these committees aro
disposed Of. and thus the very nomi-
mating speeches cannot be cleared ont OF
the way unless the Bliiue people permit
Q suspension OF the rules.
LITTLE CHANGE
The day has shown but little change
in the relative strength Of the candi-
dates. The Harrison pe0fas claimed 70
have gained couple OF Texas delegates
who yesterday went over to Blaine. The
Blaine managers state that the Plumed
Knight has made gains In the States OF
Kansas, Illinois, and Rhode Island. as
well as in several other States which they
failed to mention. W
BOLD BLAINE MOVEMENT.
The leaders OF the Blaine faction are
tonight contemplating . movement
which is very bold plan, and which, II
carried out. will be farewell greeting
to the short-lived harmony and good
feeling OF the past twenty.four hours,
whatever it's effect may be in controlling
the nomination. They have agents
carefully going through all the delega.
tions and selecting therefrom list OF
delegates and alternates to the conven-
ton who are Office. holders under
Harrison. They expect to compile this
list and add thereto the names of all the
administration office-holders who are on
the ground as helpers in the effort to
renominste the President, and who are
not delegates to the convention. This
list will be ostentatiously given out as an
indication OF the pernicious example
that is being set by President Harrison
of the effect of an administration to per-
petuate itself into power.
HARRISON AND INGALLS,.
The Blaine managers also insist with q
good deal of vigor that ex-senator In
calls, who has been unusually loyal to
the President, has been promised the
Kussian mission, recently vacated by
Hon. Charles Emoay Smith.
The Blaine peope stated this evening
that it is not yet decided that the name
of their candidate will be presented tc
the convention at all. 1t may be found
advisable to vote for him without
the formality OF nomination
but in case it is decided to place him
formally in nomination Ex-Governor
Foraker. of Ohio, will certainly make
the leading speech. Harrison will bt
placed in nomination by the venerable
ex-Secretary of the Navy. Richarn W.
Thompson, OF Indiana, and the nOmina
ton will be seconded by Depew, Of New
York, "on behalf of the great American
nation"
The other nominating speeches vii
probably be made by ex-senator JOIN
G. Spooner, OF Wisconsin John V. Mas
sey, of Delaware Hon. Louis h. McCo
mas, of Maryland. and possibly by ex
Senator Ingalls,. Of Kansas, and others
THE ALGER BOOM.
The Alger leaders had another con
ference to-day, and came out Of 1t firm
and loyal to their candidate. Colone
II. n. Duf1leld. of Detroit, the leader o
the Alger forces, says tLat their candidat'
has seyenty-fve votes assured; that h'
will receive sixty on the first ballot AMI
has certainty Of fifteen more on the Sc
cond. He agrees with the Harrison
people that the Blaine policy i
one of delay, but holds that tn
strength of the Michigan candidate ant
the scattering votes which Sherman
Mckinley, Rusk. Reed, Allison, an,
others are likely to receive will he suiii
cient to hold the balance of power AM
thus prevent q nomination on the firs
ballot. After that he entcrtains hope
that the Wolverine candidate will gail
in popular favor.
M'KINLEY IN HIGH FAVOR.
Governor Mckinley, Of Ohio, still
continues to be the favorite among al
the compromise candidates whose name
have been mentioned. He received
flattering ovation to-day on his ascending
to the chairmsnship Of the convention
and his well-chosen speech to the con
yention created much enthusiasm AM
evoked the goodwill OF all the dele
gates.
