One of the liveliest contests to come be- fore the convention will be between the Gentile and Mormon factions of Utab, ‘which are contesting for exclusive recognition, A confidential letter has been sent out by the Utah Gontiles, addressed to all the dele- gates to the convention. It wurns them 4against the Mormons and asks to have tho contesting delegation denled admit- tance to the convention, It s in parc_as follows: ‘*‘Contesting delegations Will bo sent from Utah to Minneapolis, one by the regular organization, which has been in existence for the past twenty years, the second by a fow disgruntled men who bave joined with the democrats and with their own motiop appointed committees and pro- ceeded to organize, as-they call it, the repub- lican party. The latter are for Blaine or any one to beat Harrison. The Mormons do not liko Harrison and the Gentile member of chis delegation is connected with Blaine by mar- riuge, The regular party have chosen C. C. Goodwin, editor of the Salt Lake 'Tribune, #nd C. E. Allen, county clerk, both strong Pepublicans from away back, who will stay by Harrison from first to last,” Appointment of Ushers. The appoiutment of the Minnesota contin- gent of ushers, which means tho majority of them, has kept clear of politics to a consider- able extent.

So far as presidentinl references aro concerned they are as inpar- al as could be secured. Work of the Nutional Committee, ‘The republican national committee will be- g!u its sessions tomorrow.

The roll cf states will be called and where scats are contested each deleention will ve given a hearing. There are more this year than ever bafore.

A memorial to the republican national committee has been prepared, in which the endorsement of the platform of the conven- tion is asked for the following sixteenth amendment to the constitution: *No state shall puss any law respecting an establisn- ment of religion or prohibiting the free exer- cise thereof, or use its property or credit, or any money raised by taxation or authorize either to be used for the purposs of founding, maintaining or aiding, by appropriation, pay ment for services, expenses or otherwise, any church, religiovs denomination or religious society, or any institution, society or under- aking which is wholly or in part under sectarian or ecclesiastical control.” The proposition has no sectarian tinge.

Wisconsin's Ex-Sonator Sizes Up the Matter Vory Explicitly, MiNNEAPOLIS, Minn., June 3.—One of the first Harrison boomers to reach the scene was ex-Senator Spooner of Wisconsin, *I am for Harrison,” Mr. Spooner said this morning, *I think in justice to himself he shouid be nominated. I am sure‘he can be elected, for it is conceded on all sides that tho president’s has bzen one of the wisest and most conservative administrations in the history of the countay. 1 do not see how Mr. Blaing can allow his friends to seriously think of briuging his name before the con- voution. His lotter to Mr. Clarkson, it seemed to me, was final, If he did not mean itbe was cortaloly insincere. L do nousee how he can accept the nomination in any event, unless it comes to him unanimously. I think Mr. Harrison will be the winner,” Hou. J. P. Suaborn, member of the national commitwe for Michigan, s here. Hoisa Blaiue man with others of his colleagues on the committee, and, like other Michigan men, wants Alger for second placo in the event of Blalne's nomnation, or for first place in cuse Blaino declinos, Dopew's Position Combated by €larkson ‘he declaration of Hon. Chauncey M. De,ew in Chicago that, baving been a Blaine mun, be was entitled w bave received an in- timation, if there was auy intention on the parvot Binino 1o be u cundidate, and that avIng receivea no such intimation he has tuken the letter to Clarkaon as tinal, has been very much discussed hore. Clarkson and Fassett combat Depew’s posi- tion by asserting that Blaine is stiil not a candidate, but that his party will nominate him and that ho will then show obeaience to his party. One sensational incident of the day was a telegram from N, K. Southard, chiirman of thy Maine state repubiican com: wittee, notifying General Clarkson that J. Manchester Haynes, tho Maine member of the nutional committes, had resigned .and that his place had been filled by the election of Joa H. Munley, ox-postmaster of Augusta. Such was the plain announcement, bearing uo greal significance on its face, but much 1 its possibilitics. “Mauley will be made @ member of the executive vommittee,” said General Clarkson. Thus the most trusted of Blaine's ‘nersonal fricuds, at *he very last moment, becomes one of the executive com- mittee, which will bave poteutial iafluence ovor the prelim'nary proceediugs of the con- ventlon, It is repeatedly stated horo that no wan lives who sustaius ‘more cou fidential re- lations with Blaioe than Joe Manley, He Avas selectoa by Blaine 1o go on the triutmphal tour through tho states, and of all Blaine's Maioe supporters Manley has been most de- voted. Secrotary Noble Stays Away, Secretary of the luterior Nobie bad iu- tendod to attend the convention and only abandoned the intention lust night. This biv of surprising information came from the commitieo on accommodations, atter they bad fully expected the secretary of the loterior 1o bo bhere. Secretary Noblo is sowething of an every day politician when ut howe gt St, Louls, and uutil & day or Lwo ago be hud fully intended 1o attend the convention, It is presumed that he did uot desire to subject the aaministration lo uny possible criticism by bis presence, as ho ouly avandonsd’ bis intentions after it vecame apparent that there would be some opposition the presi dent's nomination, Senator Hale Tulks, New Youk, Juoe 4,—~The Herald's Wash- follows: One of the most_significant dev opments of the Blaine campoign {8 the dec- laration of Seuator- Eugene (fale of Maine to me today that Mr. Blaine will certainly accept the nomination.

Senator Hale seoms at last to feel that thore is no stemming the Rlaine tide, I asked him today whether Mr. Blaine hud sald he would weite no more letters before the Minnespolis convention, “I don't think,"replied Senator Hale, “that Mr. Blaine has swid anything to anybody.

This action on his part was jollowed by tho olection of a delegation from Maine to tha national republican convention that was known to be favorable to the renomination of President Harrison. No_stronger - evitenco could be furnished by Mr. Blaine or his friends in Maine that ho was not a candidato than his lotter and the action in the district and state conventions of Maine. Blaine Ain't Saylng a Word, “Mr. Bluine Is remaining perfeotly quiet. 1f he does not communicate with the conven- tion through some of his friends ho is likely to be nominated if he has delewates enougl todoit. [think ho is entirely indifferent whother he is nominated or not. If the con- vention nominates him he will accept. There is no quostion about that, Tho only psint to bo considered 18 whothor he will prevent the convention from making the effort to nomi- nato him.” « The Herald this morning publishes what purports to be “‘the very inside of Mr. Har- rison and Mr, Blaine’s relations with each other” given by ‘“a man of undoubted authority {u the white houso circle,’ The situation is said to be as follows: Before Mr. Blaine came to New York he called on the president and in substanco said tohim: “In connection with my visit to Now York you wili probably hoar that it has 8 political meaning. A construction may be pucon it that will please neither you nor me, wish to say to you that I am not a candi- date for the nomination and I,hope you wilt not credit any of these stories’ that avo float- ing about.’ Theso words of Mr, Blaine are reported from a source extremely loyal and friendly to the president, and Mr, Harrison is said to have repliod: *I am much gratified at your open dealing with me. Ihad supposed you felt this way toward a nomination, although some porsons have tried to persuade mo dif=- ferently.” FLORIDA DEMOCRATS, They Combine with the Alllance Men and Nominate a Ticket. T'AnPA, Fla., June 3, —About midnight the democratic convention completea its perma- nent organization to the advantage of the Mitchell adnerents. Mitchell then sought to push his advantage by moving w0 proceed to nomination for governor. His opponents sought to stave off action by dilatory motions and the alllance man demanded the adoption of the platform before the nominations were made, but the Mitchell men were too strong and pushed the nomination of Mitchell for governor through without allowing any other namo to be mentioned. Judge Mitchell in his speech oi acceptance declared against the third party, und strongly advocated the free coinnge of silver. The convention completed its tivket by the nomination of R. F\. Taylor for justice of the supreme court; Dr. J. L. Crawford, secretary of state; W. B. Lamar, attorney gencral, and W. B. Blockson, lioutenant Governor. C. D. Collins was nominated for state treasurer, L. N. Sheats for super- intondeut of public instruction, L. B. ‘Wombell for commissioner of agriculture. The only new men in the state nominations are Sheats and Collins. The latter is a very prominent alliance man, Both had the solid support of the allhiance. National clootors were also chosen, and then the convention aajourned to 4 p. m. TAMMANY AND HILL, The Big Boss of the Braves Defines Their Position. New York, June 8.—The Times says: Richard Croker, Tammany’s chieftain, was quoted as saying that he believed that Sena- tor Hill was the coming man and would be rominated and elected. This was at the end of an interview in which Mr. Croker aefined the position of Tammany as to the national convention and criticised the democrats who made up the Syracuse convention. Mr. Croker was asked last night if he had been accurately reported as to Mr. Hill being the coming man, I aid not say that,” Mr. Croker said. “I have been misquoted. I did not taske that statement.’’ Mr. Croker was asked what course Tam- many would pursue at the national conven- tion. He smid Tammany’s delegation would vote for Senator Hill. It had been instructed o do 50 by the state convention aud it would be dishonorable on 1ts part not to do so. Mr, Croker was then asked what the Tam- many organization would do In the event of Mr. Cleveland's nomination. “Tammany.”" said he, *‘will give him 1ts most loyal support, of course. Why, what else would 1t do! Kverybody ought to know that we would'do that. ~ If we did not we would not be democrats. We would read ourseives out of the democratic party and make ourselves republicans.” WILL NOT WRITE ANOTHER LETTER. Blaine Will Have Nothing Further to Say on the Political Situation. ‘Wasmixaroy, D. C., Juue 8,—Just as Sec- retary Blaine was leaving the white house this afternoon and was walking to his ocar- riage, he was approached by a reporter of the Associsted Press, who asked him severat questions in regard to his conference with the Canadian commission, and tuen changing the subject reminded the ' secretary that in case be had any further communication to make in regard to the political situation the Associated Press wouid like to have it. The secretary smiled, and without seeming to attach any importance to what he was -say- ing, remarked: 'hav's all right, but there won’t be any more communicatious.” He then changed the subject of conversation oud courteously avoided any further refer- ence to it Secretary Kusk is for Harrison, ‘Wasnmixgroy, D, C., June 3.—Secretary Rusk, in speaking today of the presidential situation, smd: **Mr. Harrison’s nomination is only the logitimate conclusion of the unan- fmous verdict of approval passed upon his administration. he short term of four years justitios o renomination by bis party Whenéver a president’s administravion re- coives the country’s unqualified endorse- ment.

A few of the shouters are still ufinnf for Blaine but the brains of the party is for Harrison. 'We never have had an ad- ministration with which so little fault could be found as the administration of President tlarrison. Mr. Blaine has been idolized by the people who were captivated by Bob In- gersoll’s eloquence at the time he gave Blaine the title of the ‘Plumed Knight,” and by the cureful manipulation of the Associated Press reports in Blaine's interest over since. But the thinking men of the party have seen all along that Mr. Harrison was tho man for presidont. He never dooes anything for ef- fect. His administration has been one of plain, practical busin with no foolishness or ostentation. He is 'a remarkably able statesman, and the republican party will do the proper thing to nominate him for a sec- ond term.” Colone! Colby will be in Omaha several days. —_—— SPARKS OF SPORT.

Then he earefully places it n the leg of his boot, and In this man- uer conveys it into the mine. The miners have stopped *‘erimping” the lulminunuq caps with their teeth of late yea: This is due, probably, to the uieido ut Chicago of Lingg, one of the anarchists who was sentenced to hanged with Spies and she rest.

WILD PITCHING AND POOR BATTING Easy Explanation of the Reason Why the Games Wont the Other Way—Pirates and Dad Clarke Today—Other Sporting News. Kansas City, 7-3; Omaha, 8-0, Kaxsas Ciry, Mo, June 3.—[Spacial Tele- gram to Tiue Bee.|—In the first gamoe tho Blues batted in good luck, and this in con. nection with Handiboe's wildness won them the game. Puayue aid some heavy hitting, getting a two-bagger and a timely thrao-base hit. Meyiahon made a couple of beautiful singles and Sunday got two hits, Hughey pitehed in good form, although ho did not seem to have his accustomed speed. But for Alberts’ ecror in the eighth inning Umana would bave been shut out, “The feature of the game was Carnoy’s first base play and MoMahon's catching. 'The Blues started the scoring in the first inning. Manning got his base on balls and, after Sunday had fouleq, scored on Payne's long drive to deep contor. In the third two more were ndded. Payne got first on oalls and took second on Carney’s sacrifice. McMaton made a beautiful drive to right for two bases and Payne scored. Alberts got bis base on balls and McMahon came around on Lytlo's twe-base hit. Andrus went out on a fly to Sheibeck and Hughey struck out. The Omahas rallied .in the fifth and tied the scoro. Rowe led off with a hit and got second on Wostlake's sacritico, Darby waited for four bad balls, Handiboe struck out. Then Sheibeck hit to Alberts who fumbled, and the bases were full. Gilks made a corkingsingle to center, which Lytlo let go to the fence,-and threo men trotted in. Kelly went out on'a long fly to center. In the very next inning, however, tho Blues got the upper hand again. Lytle and Andrus, the two first men up, got_first on balls and were advanced a base by Hughey’s sacrifice. Munning it a little _easy one to third and got first while the Omahas wero trying to catch Lytle, who scored. Sunday then made a protiy sihgie and Payne fol- lowed with a two-base nit to left. The re- suit was four runs and the game. In the mnth inning Hughey struck out all three men. Westlake's finger was broken by a vicious foul tip in the soventh inning and Hayes took his place, Score: KANSAS CITY. 3 Sl cowmolmm, » ol vormocoon? AB. R, 1B.
