Mr. Mau ley of Maine said yesterday afternoon; "lu my judgment the convention will nominate (iovernor MoKlnloy on the llrst ballot for the presidency. It Is useless to attempt to deny that thin will be the result. The action of tho National committee in Its overwhelm ing vote on the Alabama cases settles conclusively how the respective .States which the members of the commllteu leprescut, mil vole in the convention.

The great majority of the New Ihigland delegates will bo loyal to Mr. liccd, but it is evident that the convention is for MeK'inley and will nominate him '' Whllo the declaration of Mr. Man ley contained nothing that has not been looked for for many weeks, vet it caused a Mutter of excitement when it was known the manager of Mr. Reed had announced there was no further hope among the leaders of tho forces of tho man from Maine. Other supporters of Mr. R-cd said the decln ratloli wiuUl cost Mr Heed at least half of tiie votes that would have been east for him had nothing of the kind been said, and several of Heed's sup porters asserted the declaration of Mr. Mauley ought to be followed lu ll statement from Reed that his unum would not be presented, so those who were yet under obligations to vote for him would lie released. It is said that in the face of certain and admitted defeat, delegates could not he evpeetud to vote for Heed, and that probably all of New Hampshire, all of Rhode Island and all but onu In Connecticut waiild bo east for Me Kinley, even if Heed's niimu was pre sented. Tlicio aro some delegation!, from the South which will also climb into the swiftly rolling baud wagon, although they have been instructed foi Reed. It was also stated that thu declaration irt Mr. Mauley would weaken the other candidates, as it would bo sure to iulliteucu the waver inir to vote for McICinley. Senator dear, who is representing Iowa on the national committee said that notwithstanding the declaration of Mr. Mauley, Senntor Allison's name would be presented to the con vention and voted for.

St. L'irii, Mo., June 1.1 Kx-Sen-ntor Tliumiis ('. Piatt of New York said this morning: "ruder no circum stances will (iovernor Morton accept thu nomination for the Vlcu Presi dency. We have come hero for tho Presidency, nothing else." "In all my life,' declared Mr. Piatt. "I never heard of a morn high handed proceeding. The single purpose of the national committee appears to bo to exclude from participation in tho proceedings of tho convention all per sons who luive not been for McICinley since the beginning of the Presiden tial contest.' Tho test applied is not 'Is this contestant's cause J"SL t,r upon what facts docs ho found his claim?' but. 'Is this contestant or that eontesteu for McICinley'.'' If he is, lu ho goes, if ho is hot. out he Is kicked. This cannot but be a confes sion of the inherent weakness of ihu McKiiney movement, uuierwise, why is it found necessary to ileprivu good men nnd good He piihLcnn-, hon estly and fairly chosen to be delegates t'o this convention, of their right to share in its deliberations nnd aid in the establishment of its judgment? I shall appeal to thu convention itself for a reconsideration of the commit tee's action. Such gross abuse of au thority shall not go uncontested. They are riding rough shod over everything. The' question of a man's title to a seat is not considered on Its merits, but as to his position on Pres idential candidates, Mr. Ilahii. tho i lil.I'l'IlLK member of the committee from Ohio, has declared that the only question involved in these contests is whether or not the man Is for McKiiney. and that line of policy is what New i ork objects to. " "As lor the New York contests," Piatt declared, "they must be settled in favor of the regular delegations. Tlieie are twelve of them. I do not now assume that they must bu all so settled, but refer more particularly to that arising in the Twelfth district in New Yoric city." In tho district to which Plntt re ferred, Cornelius llliss and S. V. 15. Cruger appear as eontestces and How ard Carroll and T. W. Karnes as Piatt contestants. "If Hiiss nnd Cruger are seated," Piatt continued, with tight drawn pursing of ills lips, "the delegation from the state of New York will march out of the convention hall." Piatt paused a moment and added, as If he had mentally nlcturrd tlm re sult to himself, "the plucu assigned to the New York delegation in tho con vention will look ltku a big hole with n rim iiroiino it. The result will bo the same If an unjust decision lu reached In the Thirteenth district." lu the contest from thu Thirteenth district referred to by Piatt, William S. llrooktleld and Anson O MeCook, nutl-Pliitt men, are the eontestces, and John Helsenweber and Alexander T. Mason the Piatt contestants. Piatt made it as unmistakably clear in his milliner us in his .speech, that lie and his would bolt. There was every suggestion of sincerity It is leurned from members of tho national committee, none the le's, that in all probability thesix Piatt men will be thrown out uud thu oilier men placed on the temporary roll. When what Piatt had satd was re ported to Mr. Hanna he declined to discuss the matter lu any way. "I shall not get excited over tills oven if Mr. Piatt said it," lie remarked, and when assured that Mr. Piatt had made the remark, he was not dis turbed. Onu of Piatt's friends stated em phatically that the position of Mr. Piatt was that in case six regularly elected delegates In New York shoulil bu unseated, tlieru would be sixty more delegates who would walk out o'f the convention. This view is contro verted by some of the delegates from New Yoric now on tho ground, who say that there aro from twenty-live to thirty delegates from New York who nre ardent MuKlnley men and cannot be expected to follow Piatt in any such move. Members of the national committee think tho talk of a New York bolt Is wholly for tho purpose of tho intlti ence it may havo ou the decision of contests yet to bo decided.

I Sr. Locis, June i.i. When Joseph I H. Mauley of Maine, Speaker Heed's acknowledged manager, made his i statement Wednesday that McICinley would unquestionably be nominated, ( charges of treachery were at once i freely made, and it wus openly hinted 1 that Senator Frye and Hale", as well as some of the late James (J. Hlalne's triends, had knifed him secretly. It was also charged that other New Kiigliunl senntors, except Lodge of Massachusetts, were also secretly ut work ugainst Heed. When Sam Fessenden of Connect icut, at nn early hour yesterday morn ing, lieaid that Mauley had thrown up tho sponge he became angry and in dignant, llo sought out Munlov In stutitly. "Joe." said he, "lhe Almighty (iod hates a quitter. I have been a soldier In actual war, anil tun a faithful soldier of Heed now, but my general has deserted.'' Mauley tried to explain, but Ills explanations were vain. Fessenden evidently recognled that Iteed's enemies had finished their w ork. When it became noised about that Senator Proctor would be permanent chairman of the convention, Murray Crane, the national committeeman from Massachusetts, paid Ins respects to Mr. Hauua. lie said that Heeds friends in New Kiighind generally would consider It an iiHiilt If Proctor were made chairman ol the conven tion. "Vermont,'' said Mr. Crane, "by nihility and geographical location, ought to have supported Tom Heed for President. Thu Vermont delega tion was instructed for McKiuley. We are not disposed to erltlciso that action. Hut the selection of Senator Proctor for permanent chairman of the convention would he regarded as an insult by Mr. Heed and all his friends. There is no reason why Mr. N NM10NAI. (ONM.M'IOS 1IM.I., ST. l.lll Heed mid his friends should be in sulted. Perhaps Mr. McICinley may have need for them before November.'" Ilanua, stolid, eold, iiuiuipassloued, made no replj. Crane reported his speech in the corridors, hovvever.later, and it became current. Proctor heard of it and went to Ilanua and said that under no circumstances would lie con sent to preside over the convention. Heed's real friends among the Now Knglaiiders are furious, and aro ac cusing .Munlov of all kinds of treach ery. There is even talk that Manley has been slated by Manila for postmaster-general in the McKinlev cabi net. REED IN TO STAY. I'rce U Supporters to stiind liy m the I. nst. Wasiiimiiov, June 11.
