BLAINE'S LETTER.
Chairman Jones TMnks That
J3UUIIO .WW LlUUKOr WWURtB UUP
Presidency,
Which Was Once His Ambition-His
Health Declared to be Good Opin
ions in Washington.
The Letter Causes Much Talk on Wall
Street Belief That Blaine's Decision
is Hot Final.
PiTrsBunon,Pa.,Feb.l4. Hon. B.F. Jones,
chairman of the Republican National Com
mittee, was interviewed by i. Chronicle-Telegraph
reporter yesterday afternoon on Mr.
Blaine's letter of declination.
Mr. Jones stated that Mr. Blaine was in
the best of health, and that it was not for
this reason ihat he de
clined a reuomination.
"His trip," said he,
'has been wonder
fully beneficial. I
have had many letters
from bim,and in near
ly all of them he has
spoken of his health
and said he was en
tirely recovered. No,
sir, it is not ill health
nor the fear of the re
sult, or the worry and
strain of another cam- Ji. F. June.
paign which impelled Mr. Blaiue to write
that leiter."
"Will you tell me what Mr. Blaine's rea
sons are!"
"As given to me at the time at which
Mr. Blaiue rerers thu reasons were these:
Before the nomination by the Repub
licans in 1S7B, Sir. Klainc was very anx
ious to obtain the Presidency, and worked
for it with the aid of his friends. Ho was
disappointed when it v.int to another man
in the manner it did. In 1SS0 he was still
anxious, although in a lesser degree, and
bis disappointment was less marked. In
1SS4 be had, to a groat extent, lost the de
sire for the office, and now he withdraws
from the contest because he has no wish to
become President. H-: takes a keen inter
est in literary work, and wants rest and
quiet. I assure you these are the only rea
sons for Mr. liluine's letter that are known
to me. Every Lody sooner or later loses de
sire for something which they were once
anxious to obtain, and this is entirely true
in the case of Mr. Blame."
"Isn't Blaino's letter inconsistent with
the action of his friends, presumably with
his consent, working for the control of the
State conventions and delegations 1"
"No, sir; it is not inconsistent. No
such work has been done for us. Of
course, we havo received countless letters
on this subject from people North, South,
East and West. Sir. Blaine's friends havo
not sought to set up or secure a single dele
gation anywhere. They have made no con
certed action. Thero has been no meeting
to map out a course favorable to Mr.
Blaine, and I assure you that whatever
has been done by admirers of Mr. Blaine
has been done on their own account and
not at the iustance of his close friends.
We have uonc nothing to secure tho nom
ination for Mr. Blaine. When people
write to me on the subject I send them a
call for the National convention as issued
by the committee and some extracts as to
the history of the convention of 1SS4. I
havewritten no letters in Mr. Blaine's in
terest." "Was this letter laid before any sort of a
meeting of his friends or of the National
Committee!"
"It was not. The letter was received by
mo on Tuesday last, it having como directly
from Florence to me. It was entirely in
Mr. Blaine's hand-writing. Asyouseo by
its opening sentence, it was intended for
tho party. I didn't tell any body of its
existence until Friday. Then I told one
man, who assisted me in preparing copies
of the letter for the press. It was not given
out on Saturday because many papers do
not print Sunday editions, and I was
anxious to give it tho widest publicity. I
arranged to have it go out by the Associated
Press. Even a man as close to Mr. Blaine
as Mr. S. B. Elkins knew nothing of the ex
istence of this letter until this morning."
TUB LETTEK IK WASHINGTON-.
Washington. Feb. 14. Mr. Blaine's let
ter was the leading topic of political gos
sip yesterday. Mr. Blaine's avowed friends
in Congress show a desire not to express
their opinions, but intimate that tho letter
only emphasizes the disinclination which
he has shown to press his claims for nom
ination. Tho prominent men known as op
ponents to Mr. Blaine, hail the letter as an
actual withdrawal from the Presidential
race. Senator AllJmm and others, who
may be classed as Presidential candidates,
content themselves with saying that Mr.
Blaine's expressions are unquestionably
sincere, but that he would have to accede
to the demand of the party that he should
become its candidate if it should so ex
press itself in the convention.
Among prominent Democrats in both
Houses tho expression seems to prevail
that the letter is far from establishing the
fact that Mr. Blaine will not be a Presi
dential candidate.
Mr. Dalzcll, Republican Representative
from the Pittsburgh district, an intimate
friend of long standing of Chairman Jones,
of tho National Republican Committee,
says that he is not surprised to read Mr.
Blaine's letter; that ne had an intimation
several months ago that Mr. Blaine had
suffered severely from ucrvous prostration
since the campaign of 1SS4, ami would not
likelv be nbvsicaUv a Mo to withstand the
rigorous deminds or another campaign;
that he went abroad with the hope of re
covering his health, and that the letter in
dicates that he is disappointed in tho ob
ject of his trip. Mr. Palzell believes that
Mr. Blaine is sincere in his determination
not to have Ids name used in the conven
tion, and also that he iutends to assist in
the election of the nominee to the extent
his physical condition may permit.
THE LETTEK IN NEW TOKK.
New Youk, Feb. 14. The Blaino letter is
tho only topic or conversation in Wall
street and all public resorts. An evening
paper quotes ex-SeustoriWarner Miller as
saying:
"In my opinion Mr. Blaine has concluded
that his nomination would not harmonize
all the factions of the party. Ho may pot
have desired to enter another contest and
to have to fight over again the battle of
18S4. He is evidently siucero in his letter.
I do not know what aro hi personal rea
sons for withdrawing from the candidacy
for the nomination. lam only stating my
nninlnn f Ilia Tlllltlfc rpftSOIlS."
President K. B. French, of the Police
Board, said: "I regard the letter as a very
able document and entirely characteristic
of Mr. Blaino. I thiuk it withdraws him
-j absolutely from the field, and in my opinion
makes John Sherman a favorite w wene
pub'icaa party."
Senator Hawley was asked if he consul
ered the letter as final. He said: "I de;
most assuredly I da I think ho mean
very word that he has written. There
can be no doubt as to the sincerity el Mr.
?79EsbsssRsbhsbssswTsbV
Blaiue in this matter. Circumstances may
arise that will -compel hbrfriends te refuse
to accept this as a final answer from Mr.
Blaine. But that no one knows any thing
about. Now, young man, I don't want to
say any more. In fact, I have nothing to
say. Don't you see that all this talk about
candidates is mere speculation and nothing
more!"
Ex-Senator Thomas C. Plait said: "Do I
believe Mr. Blaine to be out of the race for
the Presidency now!" the ex-Senator said,
as ho thoughtfully stroked his beard.
"Yes, I da I believe Mr. Blame means
every word in the letter that appeared in
tho morning papers. I had reason to know
for some little timo that such a letter was
forthcoming."
Senator Eugene Hale, of Maine, was at
tho Brevoort on his way to Washington.
He looked serious when asked what ho
thought of Mr. Blaine's letter, and an
swered: "I think that hois sincere and
means every word that he has written."
ThaKrtHhvj Post says: "Wc think that
Mr. Blaino's letter to Chairman Jones, of
the Republican National Committee, does
actually take him out of the field as a con
testant for the Republican nomination for
the Presidency. We think that this will be
tho effect and net result of it, whether he
so intended it or not."
"Boss" McLaughlin, of Brooklyn, said:
"We shall have to fight Mr. Blaine again,"
he remarked scntentiously. "He will be
the next candidate for the Presidency on
the Republican side."
ChaunceyM. Depewsaid: "Mr. Blaine's
letter is an able letter. It is a surprise and
disappointment to ma It is, I think, a sur
prise and disappointment to all his friends.
I have not yet hud time to take a horizontal
view of the situation. I feel that Mr.
Blaine's friends will regret the step he has
deemed wise to take, and that a majority
of them will not consider it final. Mr.
Blaine's declination will not necessarily
prevent his friends from nominating him
for the Presidency, neither will it prevent
him from accepting a nomination, should it
be givon him."

ROW IN GUAYAQUIL.
A Priest Excommunicates the Supreme
Court ami a Kow Follows.
Panama, Feb. 14. Much excitement has
been caused in Guayaquil, and excitement
which has not yet been allayed, owing to a
Spanish priest, temporarily in charge of the
Bishopric of Gayaquil, having excommuni
cated the Judges of the Supreme Court. A
mob, in which many of the best known citi
zens of Guayaquil were prominent, stoned
the Bishop's palace. Thence they went to the
residence of Dr. Nevia, the legal adviser of
the episcopate. On stones being thrown
Dr. Nevia and some friends who wcro with
him fired on the crowd. Tho police also
acted similiarly. Several persons were
killed and wounded before a troop of
soldiers appeared and restored order. The
Government in defending tho church party
was the cause of the trouble, which it is
believed will be more serious in its conse
quences. On January 34 tne populace gut
ted the residence of the Bishop to the cry
of "Death to the priests!" although the
streets were being patrolled. Quiet was,
however, temporarily restored when it be
came known that orders had been received
to hold strict investigation as to who is re
sponsible for the deaths caused by the fire
of the police.
