Tho Republican national committeo mndo such poor pro gress yesterday that tho members of tho committeo aro beginning tofeol that there is danger 01 very groat prolongation 01 their work. There aro consequently many suggestions as to tho necessity of finding a moans or reducing tho time. Up to 11 o'clock lost night tho committeo. after sit ting for twolvo hours, had decided contests affoctlng fifty suats In tho convention. Those Included tho four delogates-nt-largo from each of tho states of Mississippi nnd Florida and scattering district delegations from Collfornla, Alabama, Kentucky, Florida, Mississippi nnd Missouri. All tho delegates soated, with tho exception ot two, nro MoKinloy men. Telegrams havo been received hero that Cornelius N. Bliss, of Now York, with a " 5" W COIiNELIUH N.

This rumor had a runnlngmato in ono which stated that tho Information had been obtained saying that Governor Morton would accopt the second place, and that Mr. Piatt had.bcen con suited and said tho arrangement would bo satisfactory. Tho rumor has been started by those who think tho McKlnley men, nowTiav- lng full control of tho convention nnd everything connected with it, nro under tho necosslty of placating 0110 s-cction or another ct the country, especially where there have been disappointed presidential candidates. Senator Gear, of Iowu, has been glvcu second place in ono of those wild sweops of tho Imagination, which has conceived a necessity for placating the stato of Iowa, because bonator Allison could not Ihj nominated for president. Tho fact appears that there aro a number ot rathor eager aspirants for tho vlco pros! deney, and for several of thorn there is vory warm feeling in tho McKlnley camp, The declaration of Senator Thurston in favor of Hobart, of New "Jersey, for tho vice presidential nomination, carries weight with many of the Mclunloy poopio, OAHuF.TT A.
