mitteeman from Albany. intinates In double
leads in his paper. the Journal this afternoon.
TINT the anti Harrison men in New York have
united on Senator John sherman as their can
didate for tho Republican nomination for
President.
It was very plainly intlmated last night that
there was good denl Of truth In the an
nouncemcnt made by Mr.. Barnes. but that he
had been trifle indiscreet in sprlnging It.
The popularity Of Mr.. Blaine has never
been questioned. and there is no doubt
that tho Secretary OF State is the
FIRST choice OF the anti Harrison Republicans.
There is. however. a contingent even Of Mr..
Dlainc's best friends In the State who believe
thH' lie should not have written his letter de-
c.a,ing that his name would not be presented
to tho Minneapolis Convention. There nre
others Of influence who insist TINT MIR.
Blaine should be nominated In spite Of his
letter. These nre the mon who depre-
cato tho course OF Russell Harrison.
tho Presidents son. and others close to the
Harrison Administration who are taxed with
circulating tho reports Of Mr.. Blaine's
serious illness. Some Of young Mr.. Har-
rison's recent uttorances to New York
