NEW YOIIK , May 27. The rumored con
ference given out to bo held at the Fifth
Avenue hotel by the advocates of Blnlno's
nomination has been abandoned , so fur as n
formal conference Is concerned. Confusion
prevailed among the political loaders and the
app'oaranco ot a largo gathering was
zealously avoided. It Is nevertheless under
stood that the plan by which U is hoped to
cnpturo the Minneapolis convention for
Blnlno has been decided on , It Is stated that
every effort will bo mndo to force Blalue's
nomination , but tbat bo will not bo consulted
as to whether bo will permit bis name to bo
usod.
usod.Word
Word has been sent to the faithful that
the most pronounced supporters ot Mr.
Blaine among the Minneapolis delegates shall
cast a vote for their favorite on the first bal
lot. Tbo balance of the uuinstructod vote
will bo thrown to fuvonto sons , ana
the filibustering will bo kept up until It Is
definitely settled tbat a nomination in
Impossible. Then , when all hopa of liomlnat-
iug Harrison or settling on any other candi
date is abandoned , Blaluo will bo called buns
Iho only person to break the deadlock and bo
will bo nominated with a hurrah. This is the
alleged program.

Of the expected anti-Harrison conference
tbo Tribune says ! "A great deal hn been
written of a conference of party loaders
which it was said would bo bold before Mr.
Btniuo's departure. No such mooting was
held , neither will ono bo called in this city.
The plan was considered and Mr. Clarkson
favored such a coufcronca tbat the situation
could bo discussed fullv and freely by rep-
rontativo men of the party troui nil parts of
the country. But tbls was proposed without
the slightest reference to Mr. Blame's ores-
once hero. When Mr. Clarkson reached
Washington , ho found it would bo Impossi
ble to got up such n mooting. Many of those
who wanted to attend could not como and so
it was decided to postpone it until the lead
ers gather at Minneapolis. Then all the
states will bo rcresontod und a conference
will bo held that will bo nttondad by
almost every prominent leader of the party.
This mooting will bo hold in all probability

Chairman Clarkson 1s expociod hero today.
Mrs. ISliilno'H Ambition.
Ex-Governor Ames , It was stated , had an.
Interview with Mr. Blaino. A Tribune ro-
uorter saw Mr. Amos and ho said ho had mot
Mr. Blulno casually and bad a short talk
with him. "lu that short conversation , " bo
said , "politics were not mentioned. "
"Do you think ho would acceptl1' was
asked.
"Mr. Dopow told mo yost.orday that ho
understood that Mrs. Blalno was anxious to
have her husband accept , nnd ho considered
that us pretty peed evidence that sba thinks
him strong enough to ouduro tbu campaign. "
Dopow Thinks It'D Harrison.
The Times prints the following : Chaun-
coy M. Dopow's attention was called yester
day afternoon to a published statement that
Mr. Blulno had reconsidered his "I-will-not-
bo-n-candldato" letter to Mr. Clarkson , and
was now willing to accept tbo nomination
for the presidency.
"Well , I spent nn hour and a quarter with
Mr. Blaine yesterday , " said Mr , Depow ,
"and bo did not talk that way to Ino. I don't
think that there will ba any such message
sent from Blaine to tbo convention. "
' Do you still adhere to your opinion that
Mr. Harrison will bo nominated ! "
' Yes , I am still of that opialon.'J'snld Mr.
Dopow , and after a slight pause ho con
tinued : "I would ba a Blaine man if ho were
a candidate , but ho has not placed himself In
a position where bo can bo so consldorod. If
the convention nominates him it will have to
take tbo risk of his declining. I do not be-
llove that Blaine will accept If nominated. "
In reply to a question as to whether Mr.
Blaino's physical condition wouldpormit bim
to outer Jn the strain of a presidential
campaign , Mr. Dopow said : "Ho certainly
looked well enough yesterday. "
I'rcxiiloiit Harrison Talks.
The World this morning prints an Inter
view with President Harrison held by its
Washington correspondent in which tbo
president is reported to bavo said :
"I do not bollovo tbat individual disap
pointments will control the convention at
Minneapolis. "
The prosldont ucvor appeared in bolter
physical health than when , seated in bis
cool , pleasant cabinet room at the whlto
bouse , be expressed bis feelings as regards
the republican convention to make a nomina
tion for tbo presidency. President Harrison
is always calm and judicial wbou discussing
public questions. On tbo present occasion ,
when , in accord with a request of tbo cor
respondent , tbo president explained his own
position ns regards the nomination , his man
ner was peculiarly earnest nnd Impressive ,
indicating deep fooling. Ho continued :
UlHapiioliitmuiitti Will Not Control.
"i am too well acquainted with , the moan
ing of the oftico of president of tbo United
States not to understand the importance of
the work to bo riOno at Minneapolis. For
myself , I am not , to use a homely expression ,
a young robin with a widely open mouth
ready to catch everything that comes. I
have spent moi'o than tbroo very active years
In tbo discharge of mv public duties , during
which period of time I have uctod conscien
tiously nnd solely out of regard for my con
ception of the exigencies of tbo public serv
ice. I hnvo made appointments as nearly as
I could In accordance with my views ot what
was tilting. Of course there have been dis
appointments. Disappointments sometimes
cause discontent and discontent may mani
fest itself openly. "
It was ut this point that President Harri
son uttcrod tbo opiirummatlo ; sentence that
loads this dispatch : "Ida not bollovo that
individual disappointments will control the
convention at Minneapolis. "
Hu Could u Tnlo Unfold.
"Wero I disposed1 continued tbo prosl
dent , "to explain bow many of tboso disap
pointments und the subtoquont discontent
have occurred , the narrative would bo inter
esting , yos. very Interesting. Of course I
deeply regret that individual disappoint
ments buvo occurred , but I suppose tbat such
are inevitable. I do uot hosltato to say that
certain things have happened that I fool
deeply , especially when any ono has belittled
the plans tbat bavo been carried out , or tried
to place the credit upon others. I think ,
nsldo from political considerations , the mem
bers of the opposition party hero uro very
well contented with the administration of
tbo executive department. In foreign affairs
I have frequently cullnd on democrats for
counsel , I bavo availed myself of Iho opin
ions of such man us Senator Morgan nnd Mr.
Blount of Uoorgia , nnd others. I have en
deavored to jtrcut business subjects from u
business standpoint. "
No Aniiiniiiruiiiiint ot Cumlltlncy.
"Mr. Prenldont , In view of the recent pub
lications , do you now nnnouncu 'your candi
dacy ferro election i"
The president replied with omphanls : "I
have never announced myself a candidate
nnd I do not now. 1 did not In 1888 before
tbo Chl'-ngo convention. "
As If to accentuate what no said the prosl-
dust repented : "I make no such announce
ment. " Than ho said : "Tho convention ut
Minneapolis will assemble ) and take Its own
action. I am awara that I bavo been crltl-
cltod for uot calling on my friend * and
others for their support , but I have baou dis
inclined to dp 10 , and my fooling * bavo
undergone no iViange. My publlo and
| privalo records arc known to the pi-oplo , and
whatever tlu < y wish will DO maulfestod at
Minneapolis. If tbo people , having in con-
. sluoration the manner lu which , I have con-
I ducted tbo prosldoncy , deilro mo , I presume
tboy will Biu-iilfy tholr wishes , Meanwhile
J bavo not , neither will I proclaim my cau-
dldao.v. There is an aphorism , you know , "
suid the president umlling , "that the oDlca
should nook tbo man , und uot tbo man BOOK
the oftico , "
MX * * to Keel tlm J'nbllc 1'uUo ,
The president referred Inoldonltally to hit
tour through the south , southwest nnd to
the Pacific LOist last year.
"I rosrot , " bo said , "that I am necessarily
confined hero to what Charles Lamb de
scribed M 'tho drudgery of the desk's dead
wood , ' for I would llko to go abroad through
the country again. 1 enjoyed myself so much
last } oar tbnt I long for a repetition. Hero
in Washington you cannot fool tbo pulse of
the nntinn an delicately as wbon going
through the slates and coming in direct con
tact with the people at homo. I feel encour
aged nnd happy when n man who doos'not
wnnt porfermcnt takes mo by the hand and
says : 'God blois you.1 Such nn event Is ono
ot tbo compensations for tbo cares entailed
by the prossiug duties of my office. "
Trying to Hrnl Domocrntlo Sores.
Tbo Herald says : Tbo air was full ot

Nnw YOIIK , May ,27. Mr. W. D. Brickell ,
proprietor ot the Columbus Evening DIs-
patcb , was soon at the Fifth Avenue hotel
today , and in regard to the loiter recently
published , purporting to ba from General
Grant to Hoscoo Conkling , relating to tbo
lattcr's effort to mnko General Grant a can
didate for the presidency a third time , said :
"Last May Mr. George bhopard Page of 09
Wall street. Now York , visited Columbus as
a g'icst of Mr. Ernest MucMlllan , president
of the Columbus & tit. Louis Gas company.
During bis stay in Columbus , ho xvas a
frequent visitor at the Dispatch office , and
during ono of bis , calls showed In
the office n letter which ho claimed was nn
original nnd goiiuluotana from General Grant
to llo.scoo Conkling. Those who were In the
office recall having seen "tho latter , and as
near as all could judge , from the signatures
of Grant under his picture , concluded that
the letter was genuine.
"Mr. Page allov.-ad a copy of the loiter to
bo made , but insisted that it should not bo
published at tbat tlmo.
"Whon asked how ho came by the letter ,
Mr. Page replied : 'By a combination of luck ,
strategy and questionable methods , ' and that
was the one reason \tfy bo dia not want it
made public at that fimoi. Ho added that if
it was ever published the public would con
demn tbo .questionable jp.othods employed.
Tbo latter was copied and handed bask to
Mr. Page , and tbo cqpy put away and almost
forgotten , until my rolutn from Now York ,
wbon in looking tor some otbar papers , I
came across it. As Mr. Page was now'dead ,
I thought there could bo no objection to the
letter being made public , and without a
thought as to its political bearing , I con
cluded that It should bo published to round
out tbo llfo of General Grant. No politicians
were consulted In regard to Us publication ;
and as for Mr. Forakcr , ho know nothing
about it. Mrs. Page , now living at Summit ,
N. J. , distinctly remembers her husband's
showing the lottor. She is now searching
among his papers to find It. If tboro was
any forgery wo did not know it. Wo took
tbo letter for what it was worth , but think
it was gonuino. "

LINCOLN , Nob. , May 27. [ Special Telegram -
gram to Tun nr.K.J The excitement over the
tragedy which occurred In the dining room
of the Hotel Lincoln yesterday morning has
practically died nwny , although the matter
still forms nltno.it the solo topic of conversa
tion. It is easily to bo soon that Iho ttdo of
public sentiment is rapidly spiting In for
Irvine , although the dead man's friends nro
numerous. Ttio latter mnko no attempt , xo
deny his < guilty connection with Iho woman
whoso disregard for bor marriage vows led
to the tragedy , but tlio.v publicly assort that
her llaUon with Montgomery was not bor tlrst
Indiscretion. Attorney Doty of the llrm of
Atkinson & Doty , rotnlnod to assist the pros
ecution , stated to Tin : Bun this mornlnp that
when the case came to trial they were prepared -
pared to prove that Mrs. Irvlno hatt boon In-
tlmnto with other man before her affair vrltn
Montgomery and that tlioy would introduce
letters and telegrams to provo that Mont
gomery has tried to avoid her. It the uttor-
noys on both sides of the case suooood In in
troducing nil the ovldonco tboy now claim to
have In their possession the trial will bo as
sensational In its features as tbo cole bra ted
trial of Monday MuFarland for the murder
of John Shoody a year ago.
Ho Lived n Tragedy.
The story ofV. . H. Irvine's llfo for the
pnit ten days is fraught with unusual Inter
est. A week ago today ho started east from
his homo In Salt Lake City to Join bis wlfo
in Chicago.Vliou ho bognu his Journey ho
bad Implicit faith in his wife. Not a suspi
cion of bar guilt had reached him. He ar
rived In Lincoln Sunday nftornoon at 2:15 : ,
intending to stop over with a friend until
the next day. As ho loft the depot to walk
to bis friend's homo ho mot nn acquaintance
on the street who thoucbtiossly poured Into
bis car the llrst intimation ho had over
heard against his wtfo's honor. Without
waiting to boar moro ho turned back to the
Burlington depot , nnd two bours later was
again speeding eastward to' learn the truth
from the lips of bor whom bo had always
cherished.
This is the story told to Irvlno by the man
who mot Him on the strcot : The mnn re
ferred to bad himself been a passenger on
tbo tram to Chicago early last February.
With auotbqr friend they passed through
tbo train in search of acquaintances. Tbov
found Mrs. Irvlno. At Omnhn Mr. Mont
gomery boarded the train nnd Inter joined
Mrs. Irvlno. The four sat together. A dock
of cards was produced nnd the tedium of the
journey beguiled by a number of games of
high llvo. Mr. Montgomery and Mrs. Irvine -
vine were In the best of spirits and seemed
to enjoy each other's company. Such was
the story told Mr , Irvlno. It wa $ not much
of a story , but it led to yesterday morning's
tragedy.
From Her Own I.lps.
Reaching Chicago Monday , Mr. Irvine at
onto sought bis wife nnd questioned bar
closely as to bor journey to Chicago with
Montgomery. Llttla by llttlo tbo woman
related the story , reluctantly admitting facts
in answer to bor husband's questions , until
nt last the wbolo torrlblo truth lay bare.
Mrs. Irvine confessed that she had mot
Montgomery on the train at Omaha ; that together -
gother tboy jouineyed to Chicago ; tbat they
occupied a suite of rooms at tbo Curtis hotel
in Chicago , tbo rooms connecting by a door ;
that on February 0 she was seduced.
This story Mrs. Irvine told her husband in
the presence of bar mother. Tnon her con
fession was rcduooa to writing and signed ,
with her mother's name as a witness to the
signature.
Tbo wronged husband lost no tlmo In re
turning to Lincoln. Ho gave up a pleasure
trip which bis wife was to share with him
and with the written and nttostod proofs of
her iutldolity in bis pocket took the llrst train
back to the home of her betrayer. Ho ar
rived hero yesterday morning at G:20. : Ho
flrost sought bis attorney. Not finding him
ho walked down the strcot to his former
homo wboro bo and nis wife had lived so
happily. It may bo tbat tbo light of a once
happy homo , now ruined and blasted forever ,
nerved him to do the awful deed for whioh
ho now occupies a fulon's coll.
Waiting for Ills I'roy.
At any rate bo proceeded at once to tbo
Hotel Lincoln , where ho know the man ho
soupht was to bo found. Ascending to the
dining room ho looked over tbo room half
filled with early risers , but notlimitng Mont
gomery he walked tbo length of the corridor
rider , entered the parlor and sat down.
These who saw him state that ho picked up
a newspaper and began to road.
Again bo approached tbo dining room and
again bis oycs scanned tbo faces seated at
tbo table. This tlmo the man ho looked for
was thore. With ono stop forward ho was
face to face with him who had wronged him ,
and tboro , with a hand nerved to steadiness
by desperate resolve , ho lifted his weapon
and an instant later two reports rang out
and doatb was the portion of the man who
bad half arisen from his seat with a band extended -
tended In wclcomo to bis siayor.
Cfironcr'K Inquest Continued.
The adjourned session of tbo coroner's in
quest assembled this morning. Coroner
Crim stated that last ovonlng ho bad made amore
moro careful examination of the wounds
which caused Montgomery's dealt ) . Im
bedded in tbp.left ventricle of the dead man's
heart ho found n broken , twisted linu of tbo
watcb. cb'aln which had been broken by the
bullet. At tor leaving the broken link In tbo
heart tbo bullet passed on through and
lodged near the spinal column. It was this
wound whloh caused death , the other not
being necessarily fatal.
B. D. Smith of Kearney was tbo first wit
ness called , but bis testimony developed
nothing that has not already been told.
C. W. Bnrnoy of this city testified tbnt
after the shooting bo ran to Montgomery's
assistance , and asked him if ho had any last
words to say. The dying man made no re
sponse , and evidently did not tccognUo him.

Verdict ot the Jury.
After the latt witness had boon examined
qulto n discussion arose over the advisabil
ity of demanding from Irvine's ' attorneys the
papers tnkon from him when ho w.is plnccxl
under arrest. Several of the Jurors Insisted
that the papers should bo placed In ovldonco.
The attorneys representing the stale hold a
whispered consultation nt tbo end ot which
Ulitrlct Attorney Snoll stated to the Jury
that it was neither necessary nor doslrablo
that the papers bo turned over to thorn , but
that the ovldonco admitted thnt ono of the
documents contained a confession from Mrs.
Irvlno nnd that , the confession was dated
since last Monday. With tbls explanation
the Jury retired.
In the Jury room the snmo question nroso
nnd for several hours the Jury hung on this
point. It wn not until 4 o'clock that n ver
dict was Unally determined upon. It was of
usual form nnd to tbo effect tbat C. K.
Montgomery cnmo to his death by gun shot
wounds Inflicted bv n pistol In the bands of
W. H. Irvluo.
The funeral of 0. K. Montgomery took
Dlnco this afternoon from the residence ?
ot his sister , Mrs. II. H. J'olk , nt the corner
of Sixteenth nnd I. , streets. The services
\vcro conducted by Kev. K. 11. Curtis , pastor
of the ! Irst Presbyterian church , nnd were
of slmplo but Itnprosslvo character. Tbo remains -
mains were taken to the deceased's former
homo at Petersburg , Ind. , where they will
bo burled bcsldo tboso ot bis father nnd bl
Wlfo. The funeral carriage was followed
from the residence to the lurltminn ) : depot
by n largo number of friends. The presi
dents of the lovernl nntlonnt banks ot the
city off.clntcd ns pall bearers. The remains
were accompanied to Indiana by C.W. Cham
bers nnd It. N. Hawaii nnd tholr wives , both
of whom nro sisters ot the deceased. The
aged mother of tbo deceased was too overcome -
como to stand the long Journey. Her llnnl
parting and last look upon tbo faoo ot bar
son were affecting In the extreme.
Nu Now Development * .
There have boon few developments lu the
case today , Irvine's attorneys have per
sistently refused to glvo out the papers
which all are so eager to see , but tboy admit
that the outline of the confession ns clvon In
TIIK BISH Is correct even ns to the dates nnd
places. Attorney Strode , wbo was today re
tained by tbo defense , has charge of tbo
cnso , ano stated to Tun Bni : roprosontntlvo
this ovonlng thnt from this time on bo should
decline to discuss the cnso and would
studiously refrain from rushing Into print
with statements In regard to the affair. Attorney
tornoy Abbott , who is also connected with
the defense , is confined to his room by sick
ness und cannot bo soon. s
The friends of Montgomery have engaged
Atkinson & ttoty to assist District Attorney
noy Knoll in the prosecution of the oaso.
Tholr policy is exactly the reverse of thnt of
the attorneys for the dafonso. They nro
perfectly willing to talk nnd hnvo today
made same assertions In regard to Iho post
conduct of Mrs. Irvine1. Tbo Lincoln press
uphold the public sentiment In favor ot Ir
vluo. Both evening papers tonight charao-
torl/cd Montgomery's conduct as worthy ot
the punishment ho received.

"C. I. Hood & Co. , Lowell , Mass.
"Gentlemen : When I was 14 years ot og '
I was confined to my bed for several months
by an attack of rheumatism , and when I had
partially recovered I did not'liaVb the use ot
my legs , so that I bad to go on crutches.
About a year later , Scrofula , In the form of

appeared on various parts of my body , anl
for eleven years I was an Invalid , being con.
fined to m ? bed * iz yearn. In that tlmo
ten or cloven ot these sores appeared and
broke , causing mo great pain and suffering.
Several times pieces of bone worked out ot
the sores. Physicians did not help mo and
I Became Discouraged-
"I went to Chicago to .visit a sister , as It
was thought a change of air and scene might
do mo good. But I was confined to my bed
most of the tlmo. I was ao impressed
with the success of Hood's Sarsanarllla
In cases similar to mine that I decided to try
It So a bottle was bought , and to my great
