HE WILL NOT BOLT BLAINE. St. Paur, Minn,, June 9.—The Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, of New Yurk, spent Sunday in St. Paul, on his way to his Montana ranch. Speaking of the issues ot the Chicago convention, Mr. Roosevelt said: ““The platform is an admirable one, a8 strong as the party has had since the war.” He eays: “‘It will gain thousands of votes all over the country. Whether re- publican or independent, conservative judgment must endorae it heartily. The democratic party must follow, in the main, our platform, or give up the fight. 1 did not favor either Blaine or Arthur, MY PREFERENCE WAS EDMUNDS. Asde from his own strength of 330 odd yotes that would stick to him through thick and thin the ‘Plumed Kuight” was the second choice of two-thirds of the remaining delegates. As soon as they saw the nomination of their candi- date was impossible, and Blaine's nomi- nation probable, they flocked to him in a body. This is why no combination against Blaine was possible. Had I not been 8o positively for Edmunds, I dop'l. know out what I would have been carried away myself by the contagion, and found myself throwing up my hand for Blaine. Blaine is the choice of two-thirds of the rank and file of the party. I ehall bolt the nomination by no means. I have no personal objection to Blaine. Ithink yeu will find that there will be no fatal dis- affection,+ I believe BLAINE WILL BE ELECTED, He will sweep the west and Ohio, and will carry all New England. I have been called a reformer, buz I am a republican. 1t is too early to speak of New York. No one to-day can tell how that state will vote. I donot think it impossible for Blaine to carry it. I do not believe there will be an independent candidate. Those who will not vote the republican ticket will stay away from the polls. As to the bolt of The New York Times, 1 am in- olined to think it would support either Cleveland or Dorsheimer, if nominated by the democrats.” THE DEMOCRACY, ABRANGING FOR THE NATIONAL CONVEN- TION. CricaGo, June 9.—The local commit- tee of arrangements to prepare for the natioual democratic convention have di- rected an architect to prepare plans for the rearrangament of the convention hall by which the seating capacity will be en- larged 80 as to admit 20,000 people. The accommodations for the press will also be enlarged. The local managers confi- dentiy expect a larger outside attendance than was the case with the republican convention, as democratic political clubs from all parts of the country have an- nounced their intention to be present, WASHINGTON NOTES. ADJOURNMENT. Special Dispatch to The Bee, WasHINGTON, June 9 —The ways and means committee has been considering the question of adjournment, It hasnot reached any definite conclusions, but will probubly report a resolution providing for adjournwent July 1, The plan seems to be to adjourn congress for a couple of days before the meeting of the democrat- ic convention. Whether it will be suc- cessful is very doubtful, The indications seem to be azainst it. It is doubtful, in- deed, whether congress could, if it wanted to, get through its necessary work by that time. THE NAVAL BILL, is likely to create a good deal of discussion in the house aud in the senate too, if the houte should strike out the sections mak- ing large appropriations for new vessels, and the river and harbor bill will con- sume considerable time; as it is not likely to go through the house before the wid- dleof the present month, it must be some timoyet before it can becomea law. Tho thivg most likely tocause a longer session than that suggested by the ways and means cymmittee, however, is that it is votes on the 4th for governor and state officers; Tennessee follows on August 7th, Arkansas on September 1st, and Vermont one day later. Then comes the more significont election in Maine on September 8th, with an interesting vote on the constitutional prohibition of the liquor traffic. Georgia will elect a gov- ernor on October 1st; on October l4th the Ohio and West Virginia elections occur, Political interest of the series culminating in Ohio, where 21 congress men will be chosen and minor state offi vers hotly contested in the traditional belief that tho result may potently in fluonce party features in the presidential election three weeks later. Correspondence of Tre Brk, WasniNaron, June —Thero probably not a city in the country as quiet as Washington was yesterday over the news from Chicago All through the week, in fact, there has been but little enthusiasm shown in the direction of any condidate here, and if there has been any excitement it has been confined to the breasts of the presidential candidates, who were thick enough here, to be sure. The two news centres were the Western Union telegraph office opposite the treas- ury and the office of the secretary of the senate fat the capitol, but at no time were either of these Incalities alarm- ingly crowded. There were a large num- ber of private stations, the newspaper oftices all had their bulletins and the can- didates each had a private wire run to their houses, so this scattered the in- formation from Chicago a little more was vestigation with fairness, and set forth its results with judicial impartiality; aglance at tho minority report would satisfy every just mind that this has not been done. The examination was conducted with the sharpness, the rigor, the cutting off of un- favorablo testimony, the leading up and solicitation of that which was favorable, which usually characterizes oriminal cases in the hustings court. The people of Danville were all the way threugh treated as though they were on trial, with the republican senators acting as prosecutors, Things were assumed to be true on the rambling statements of ignorant negroes, though disproved by others with greater intelligence, both white and black.” The roport describes the riot from the standpoint of the minority as a purely local affair, and not the result of conspiracy [t enters at length into the history of liwlessness of mobs in northern ocities, dwells upon the crimes and violence at the north, alludes to the Cincinnati riots, to the Tewksbury almshcuse investiga- tion in Massachusctts, the killing of in- offensive negroes in Now York and other northern states, and suggested an investigation into these mattors would be as proper a subject of congressional inquiry for investigation as the killing of four negroes in Danville, *‘Whilst the sonator from Ohio was investigating the riot in Danville and holding up his hands in horror at the shooting of four negroes in the crowd, some 200 of whom had at- tacked and crowced to the wall some 15 or 20 whites, bloodshed, murder and arson were running riot in his own city, Cincinnati, during which more than 50 persms were killed, twice that number wounded and a illion dollars worth of property destroyed.” The minority ask how it would be if generally. This is decidedly an *“‘administration’ town, so the nomination of Blaine did not take very well. It was, in fact, received in marked silence and a great many fel- lows’ faces fell a foot at the prospect of losing clerkships on a change of cabinet officials. At the office of the secretary of the senate the announcements were made ona big blackboard at first, but the crowd grew impatient at that and called for direct reports, which were finally read off the instrument as it clicked. Eight or ten copies of the bulletins were taken by manifold FOR THE SENATORS who were locked up in their various com- mittee rooms with select coteries of friends. Some of the senators remained in the senate chamber. Bulletins were delivered there to Senator Hawley, who read them aloud to Sentors George, Call, Farley, Pugh, Jones, Cockrell and Vest. Mr. Robert Blaine, brother of the coming man, was in there also and watched each speck of news with interest. He had stood by the telegraph instrument the night before until three o'clock in the morning. He is employed in the agri- cultural department and does not look much like his illustriops brother. It was very evident that the crowd of privats secretaries, senate employees and committee clerks in the Secretary’s oftice was an Arthur crowd, or, at least, anti- Blaine. Bets were few and careful. An attempt at a pool was not very successful. There was a goodly amount of fun, how- ever, because Anson G, McCook, the sec- retary was in Chicago, and ‘‘the boys” had it all their own way. All kept tally. When the rumor came that Logan had thrown his strength for Blaine someone exclaimed “Secretary of war Logan,” and the remark was applauded. OVER IN THE HOUSE, there was more interest stirred up by the impromptu holding of amock session. Mr. Van Eaton took the chair, and any- body that wished established himself at the desks. Mr, Belford teok the floor. He said his friend Blaine would have been nominated in 1876, but some one turned out the gas, and in the darkness Hayes was nominated. The name of Hayes brought out a laugh. Fictitious dispatches by ‘‘grapevine” were also con- cocted and read amid great merriment At the white house the cabinet held a short meeting, and then all went into Secretary Phillips’ room to hear the bul- letins. The president was alone. Senate and houss stand adjourned un- til Monday, when the members who have spent the waek iu Caicago will begm to straggle back. The senate, particularly, has been avery much depopulated body, but has managed to pass a surprising number ot bills and accomplish 80 much business, even without a full quorum, that there is now talk of adjournwent by June 23d. It is muth more likely to be July 1st, however. It is warmig up here and the uspha tum streets are begin- ing to show foutprints. All the inhabi tants of the fashionable west end of Washington are moving to watering the committee were anninled to investi- gate the “Kiliing of the negroes in Ohio for the sale of their carcasses to the medical colleges,” and to report upon the “‘state trade in that branch of American industry, and whether it is likely to in- terfero with the pork packing business of the city of Cincinnati.” The report charges the majority with making a partisan threat depriving the people of Mississippi of representation in case they do not vote for the republi- can candidate; and of shifting the ex- penso of printing campaign documents from the pockets of the republican na- tional executive committee on to the pub lic treasury. MEN OF MAINE. TRIUMPHAL RETURN OF THE DELEGATES Porrranp, Me., June 9.—Five cars waiting in Portland to connect with the Blaine train. The leading car is gaily decorated with bunting and portraits and was engaged by Collector Dow for a se lect party of citizens and public men. Chandler’s band accompanies the party. The train rolled in at2:40 p. m., amd cheers and welcomes and the strains of the band. The delegates report an enthusiastic reception at Lynn and Portsmouth, the only places where the train stopped. At Portsmouth addresses were made by Con- gressman Boutelle, Governor Robie, and Governor Davis, of Califoruia, made a short stop at Portland, and Wing, of Auburn made a brief speech. The band struck up again and the artillery thundered a salute. AT BRUNSWICK, AuausTa, June 9.—The Blaine train No stops left Portland at3 p. m, were made until Brunswick was reached, at 4. Here there were four cars from Lewiston and Auburn, decorated with Blaine insignia, and three more from Rockland and other cities, all filled with delegates to join the Blaine traim. A great crowd with a band of music greeted the California and Maine delegates with cheers. The Bowdoin students were con- spicuous inenthusiasm, Sunator McClure of California, made a ringing speech, after which Congressman Boutelle made aspeech, which was cut short by the starting of the train at 4:20 for Augusta, AT GARDINER, artillery welcomed the train, but a stop of only two minutes was made. All along the routethe flying train wasgreeted with cheers and waving of handkerchiefs, particularly along the Kennebec river. Crowds were gathered at many places. A 5:30 the long train of thirteen cars rolled INTO AUGU: A, where bands were playing, whistles blow- ing, bells ringing, srullery firing and crowds were assewbled to mect it. procession with wusic and banners was formed to escort the visitors, Ex-Governor Conuor addresied the Calitornia deiegation in woras of wel- come, which were respouded to Senator MoClure, California, who closed, amid great cheering, by saying, * You need not be worried about us ; we will take care of our side of the continent.” Ex-Senator Hamliu said :**You have done places and summer resorts and the capi- tal will soon be deserted. NEBRASKA NIBBLES, Senators VauWyok uud Manderson are expected to resuwe their places in the senate next week. Congressman Valentine has left the National hotel, whero has bern so long a auest, and taken the parlor flhor av 304 Indiana avenue. This is where Congress- man Weaver has his rooms and 1 & pleas ant house, conveniently near the capital, Citizeus of Nebraska in the vicinity of the Ft, McPherson military reservation have sent in a petition asking that the proposed Soldiers’ Home be established there, 1f this cannot be done they re commend it as a it place for an Indiau training school or military school, Mr. Ed. Riche, of Falls City, Nubras. ka, who hag been studying the past win- probable that the republicaus of the senate will not consent to adjournment until afcer the democratic convention. There is already an inclination on the part of the democrats to ATTACK THE RECORDS of the republican candidates, snd prepare awmunition for the coming campaign, and if this is carried out the republicans will never consent to adjournment until they have had simi'ar opportunities re- garding the democratic candidates. ** If they do this,"” said Senator Butler, of South Carolina, speakiug of the prospects of such action, *‘ If they do this, we shall probably be here until September. Any action of that sort on the part of the sonate would precipitate a general politi- cal discussion, and there is no telling when that would end.” THE STATE ELECTIONS, ter at John Hopkins Un.versity, Balti more, was in Washington last week and weut from hure to the Chicago conven tion, He intends to practice law in Lincoln, Veinor W, Bruce, secretary tn Senator Vau Wyck, is a bicyclist.

The enthusiasm of the crowds was interrupted by the band striking up, aud the proces- swn proceeded through the principal streets, TO THE RESIDENCE OF BLAINE, in front of which the crowd was assem- bled watching an artst skotching for an ustrated paper. The procession ar- cived at 6:4D, aud the Califoruians were received with clapping ot hands as they passed into the houss. They wers most cordially greeted by Blawe as Senator McClure presented each by nawe, and acouversauion ensued which was broken up by S:nator Hawlin coming in aud being presented, remarkiug they were wmere by, Blawe went to the door, whera he was received with cheers, General Connor addressed him in s short speech, aud was followed by Cougressman Boutelle, Judge BLAINE THEN SAID: Fellow citizens: If anythiug conld add to the pleasure of welcoming to my door and under 1wy roof wy I frisnds of Maiue, it wou'd bo as it 1 t-day, huve thew accowp - ied by loyal wud true toart-d men fiom thy dific cosst, whom they bring 0 our hos pisality, sud w om we greot wid wel ome us our guests. | Al very sure you must appre ciate the embarrassmont under which & wan wpoaks wheu he is overwheln d with dewons strations of kinduess, us 1 have heen to-day, The train by |! tirod, and then the crowd streamed by the door shaking hands with Blaine.
