The letter of Mr. Blaine announcing that he wilt not b+ a candidate before the republican national contention was the chief tople af discussion among Senators today, The repubitean Senators naturally manifested greater interest im the letter than the democrats, WHAT SENATOR CHANDLER SATS. To @ Stan reporter Senator Chandter sald: “T have rather expected it ror some time. While Mf. Blaine, no doubt, feeis just as hopefully as he writes about the party, having run onee, he does not care to undergo the wenr and tear of another canvass, nd, {f we should be beaten, have it sald, perhaps, thet we might have won under other circum- ‘stances and with another man.

Senator Voorhees sald: “I think the letter is a ‘ery urgent appeal for the nomination and an attempt to make nis party unttediy and unani- ‘mousiy ask him to make the race.” . Setator Plumb sald: “I think it is a sincere wit Wai, aad 1s calculated to be of advantage to the party in summing up and sevting forth its posidion of advantage. party will be united and resolve.” Berry tat ly remarked that he hadw’t formed ‘an opinion ye but the tenor of what he said showed that he had no faith in the sincerity of the letter, ty’ Seaator Davis, of Mi says it 18 a frank, hontst withdrawal of Mr. Blaine’s eandidacy, made, as he belleves, in the best interests of the republican party. Seaator Allison—“It 1s a sineere withdrawal. ‘There ts no doubt of that. Mr. Blaine is out of the Hoyt! is party shali demand that he head jecker.” Senator Biair—“Mr. Blaine undoubtedly means What he says, but fa ‘my opinion nis declination ts a misfurtude to the republican party, because no- bods else Can vet as many vores as he would.” Senaior Teller—“Mr. Blaine is enurely sincere, and I veueve party harmony will be promoted by his action, 1 believe he could be wed if he Would but say the word, and he knots that he couid, but he kuows that there iy an element of the party that opposes him, and to e hak Moby, as ke Lopes, he voluntariiy declines.” Senator Culiom—“I take it for granted that Mr. Blaine has written his letter tn good faith. He d0e83 not new auticipate that bis nawe will go be fore the convention. I have no idea that it will ‘unless the Sentiment of the republican party de- manils Il.’ ‘Senator Aldrich does not believe that the with- drawal of Mr. Biaine, bis refusal to permit the use of his name, wii be a detriment or au element of Weakness to the republican patty. He predicts that the outeome of Mr. Blaine’s retirement, will be thorough wutty and barony in the republican Pasty, and that It will go into the canvass with emthusias and every prospect of success. “There is one thing,” ad Senator Aldrich, “that this letter has made certain. It will make the repubilean couveution a more interesting as- sembly.” ‘The Senator suid he had known for than @ week that something of the sort was coming. Some of those persons tinmediately in the couitdeuce of Mr. Blaine had been advised that tue jeter nad been written aud would sven be mmadé puvlic, Sewator Spooner sald: “The letter 1s unseliish, self-Genyiug, and characteristic, just what migat have been expected of Blaine, though it takes everybouy by surprise, lils letier leaves the fleid open to some goud man whotn all the party can aud Will support.” ‘ibe Senator would not under- take to say Who that man may be. Senator Frye does not consider that the ietter takes Mr. Blaine Out of the feid #5 a candidate. If the republican party regards Mr. Blaine a3 we candidate it wants it will nominate him. Then ‘tue responsibility will be shifted from Mr, Blaine to the party at large. Senator Mitchell says he regards the letter as Sincere, bUL be does uot believe that it takes Blase out of the race. He thinks that should the republican party cail on him ie Would not refuse tw enter te race, Senaior Paddock thinks Blaine’s letter will be a Aisappolutment to his strong support in Nebraska, but he Woks upon it as a political utterance irom @ an who is sincerely desirous of the suc- cess of Lue republican party. “Its effeet wiil not, however, be detrimental,” be said to a Sak wean, the party's interests in Nebraska, as we Will carry the state for any republican nominated. ‘ihere is a preference ‘be added, “In our state fora Western candidate, and Sevater Wm.

In the opiulon of some of Mr. Biaine’s friends in the House, Mr. Blaine’s letter declining the Presidential nomination will not prevent bis getting it, This is probably the prevailing Opinion among the repubitcaus Some lke Mr. Peters and Mr. Funston, express the opin: jon that Mr. Gresuam ls the coming nan Others tink Mr. Sueriman Or Mr. Allison Will get the uomination, according to their preferences.

Symons, “this waste fs far more serious than most people imogine. If the water was only used ior ait ahd legitimate purposes, there would be Bo necessity for Lue expenditure of over $2,000,000 new works, the anntal expenses for pumping would be reduced $10,000, tere would be no neces- sity for erecting new Putuplng engines at a cost of over $30,000, there would be plenty of water to supply the fountains in every public square and tiangle in the city, and everybody would get all the water that they wanted to use.” “The suppression of waste,” continued Capt.
