to Cleveland. South Carolina this morning decided to eo (or Boies, the Western candidate, an the best maa with whom to teat Cleveland, to whose nomination it is bitterly hostile. The delegation met during the day and it was agreed to give Boies twelve of its votes on the first ballot. Of the other six votes three will go to Hill, two to Gorman, and one to Cleveland on the first ballot. On the second ballot Boies will get five of the remaining rotes and perhaps all six should he stand a good chance, South Carolina was distinguished in its state convention by the adoption of resolutions denouncing Cleveland. Members of the delegation pay that, though these resolutions may seem strong to outsiders, they were really the mildest that could bare been drawn and gone through the convention. The Cleveland men are straining every nerve to add to their strength on the first ballot, and wherever it is poesible to consolidate a state delegation and have it

ACTION OF THE STATES. Illinois Sets the Hall in Motion for Cleveland. . The Illinois delegation will caat its solid lorty-eight votes for (trover Cleveland. There is no longer anv reasonable doubt upon this point, and the ellect of the announcement has been to eend Cleveland stock booming skyward. F.arly this fore noon lien. John M. Palmer, for whom the Illinois delegation ia instructed for the presidency, had an extended conference with the various members of the Illinois delegation at the Sherman house and made known his wishes that Cleveland should receive the solid forty-eight votes of the Prairie state. "I think I can state with considerable aasurame that Illinois will vote for Cleveland," said he to the Associated Tress at the conclusion of this conference. "I have said to my friends today that the democratic state convention of Illinois declared substantially, though not in direct terms, that Mr. Cleveland was the first choice of the state of Illinois and in e:Tect instructed the delegation to vote for Mr. Cleveland, since the instructions for me were only to be effective in the event that it was deemed expedient to come to the Weit for a presidential can didate. All thid was understood at the time, and mv friends joined with me in favoring a declara t:on that only in case the presidential candidate should cora from the Wet should the delegation support me. I have approved that position in letters and con versations and in everv other way since that time. Having advised this course at the time the convention met, I now main tain it to to the duty of my frinds who are influenced by personal friend-hip for me to vote for Mr. Cleveland, and on the first ballot, and not for me. I owe it to uivself and to mv personal in tegrity to insist that that Bhould be carried out faith fully. I have paid this to everv gentleman of the Illinois delegation with whom I had con versation, and I will state that mv friends generally agree with me fully that no dele gate shall vote for me on the first ballot. and I advise a!! to vote for .nr. Cleveland without, of course, claiming any right to dictate to them, but putting it purely on the grounds of personal honor. That is all I can say, and ail I bad anv right to eay to the Illinois delegation, and I have no doubt but that they will vote for Mr. Cleve land." "Do you believe that Mr. Cleveland will be nominated, .en. I'almer? "I have seen many leaders from all over the country and it looks tome as if Cleve land wonld be nominated, and 1 say thin. too, without meaning to antagonize any other candidate or perron. I am taking no stock in the New ork fights. I am simply tpuntingthat if Mr. Cleveland iHnorninated, or that if any good democrat is nominated, we will carry Illinois and Wisconsin for him and make up any possible defection In the Mate of ew lcrk. the Hon. A. K. Stevenson, chairman o the Illinois delegation, was. if possible. even more positive than Gen. Palmer that the lilinoid delegates would support Cleve land. "I have no doubt." paid ha, "that Cleve land will receive the torty-eight votes o our state. I think that is pretty wel established. I do not find any particular opposition to carrying out the suggestions ot uen. t aimer, and even the two or three inconsolable gentlemen who are still inclined to support Palmer, announce that they will abide by the will of the majority and support Cleveland under the unitra.e. if it is bo decreed by the dele ration. I also believe that Cleveland w be nominated. I am not prepared to give figures to show exactly why, bu somehow I believe it and feel confident about it." It was rumored extensively during the day that after the withdrawal of 1'almer from the presidential contest, the friends of Col. Morrison had begun urging the Illinois delegation to turn to him as their candidate instead of Cleveland. Inquiry among thi friends of Col. Morrison in the delegation, resulted la a hrm and indig cant denial of this rumor. "Colonel Morrison's friends are for Cleveland on the first ballot, and every body ought to know it," eaid Senator Farmer, who is one of the Morrison men of the Illinois delegation. "There is no movement in favor of Morrison at this time and never will be unless Cleveland should be defeated. We are all in favor of giving the vote of Illinois to the expresident and as everybody else in Illinois seems also to favor it just now, 1 sanpo there can bo no reasonable doubt aa

to our actions. You van pat it down that Cleveland i eta the solid forty-tight rotes of Illinois."

The most sensational and dramatic scenes preceding the democratic national convention were witnessed tonight behind the closed doors of the Illinois head quarters. The full delegation of the Prai rie state was in caucus and the forty-eight votes of the delegation were the prize that hung in the balance. Against the personal intercession of the first democratic U. S. senator from Illinois in tbirtv years, Gen. John M. Palmer, was placed the presence and voice of the popular governor of New York, Kos well P. Flower, each himself a presidential possibility. The strange spectacle was presented of 'aimer pleading against himself in the llinois delegation and declaring in a vor 01 a isew lorn can didateCleveland while Flower stood champion lor the Ihinoisan, 1 aimer. proclaiming that Cleve. and could not carry New York. The remarkable charac ter of the proceedings was hightened by a solemn invocation by the New York er of the responsibility for national defeat next November upon the heads of the Illinois delegates. An angry protest by a minority of the Illinois men that they could be choked into submieaion but not into silence when the vote of the state was cast for Cleveand inthe national convention, furnished the climax. The decision, however, was made practically irrevocable that Illinois shall vote in the ballot for president fortyeight Bolid for Cleveland. The unit rule will be enforced and no favorito shall be put forward for Illinois. The man who wrought this result was Gen. John M. Palmer, who, in doing so, undoubtedly sacrificed whatever chance he "too 1 as a presidential candidate. Tho battle was a hard fought one, and began almost before the members of the i caucus were fairly seated. Acting unaer the instructions of Gen. Falmer, and in accordance with the plan outlined by him last night on bis arrival in the city, a resolution was promptly introduced instructing the chairman of the Illinois delegation not to permit the presentation of the name of Gen. I'almer as the Illinois candidate for the preidutial nomination, but instead to cast the rote of the etate for tl rover Cleveland. Judge Murphy of the Twentieth Illinois district, who was the author of the reso lutions in the state convention, practically instructing the Illinois delegates to sup port Palmer, was the man to move the adoption of the new departure. In a flash began the opposition that did not cease tiil adjournment at midnight, and then only with threats of renewal on the tloor of the convention. The fight against Cleveland was led by Michael McInerny of Chicago, one of the famous 101 democratic members of the state legislature who votsd two months for Senator Palmer, and finally won him a seat in the U. S. senate. Mclnernv moved to eubstitnte the name of Palmer for that of Cleveland in the resolution and proceeled to make a bitter speech, attacking the ex-president's avatlabuitv. Mclnerny was strongly supported :v F. H. Winston, ex-U. S. minister to Persia, who declared that in putting up the name of Cleveland the democracy wculd be walking into an open grave. Word was received at this juncture that a New York delegation was on the way to the Illinois room.-, to demonstrate the folly of nominating l .eveland. Pending their arriv.il dilatory tactics were resorted to by the Mclnerny element and roll calls and parliamentrry tangles were piled coiling bih. A test voto showed that the Cleveland men could command thirty-fivo votes in the Illinois delegation, while the opposition ha i only twelve, and one absent. Senator Cantor, a New York conzreHgaian, Judgo l'eevy. District Attorney l'elaucy Nichoil and Governor Flower came in, one after another, and alternately urgd, begged and threatened ttie Illinois men not to nominate Cleveland. Each declared unqualifiedly that the ex-president could not carry New York ftate, und that if Hill were not acceptable Palmer or Boies or any other candidate except Cleveland couid carry tbt etate. tovernor Flower said: "We want to kill this republican calf and skin it, and want the boys that do it to have part of the carcaes and r.ot go hungry for four vy years, as they would if Cleveland was the nominee. Illinois has the power to name the next president, and upon your action tonight depends victory or defeat for the next four years."' Judge Peevy implored that the New Yorkers be not "sent home discredited, insulted, and to mourn with Illinois in November a general democratic defeat." It was all in vain, the resolution carried. Mclnerny fired a parting shot that be would challenge the announcement of the Illinois vote for Cleveland in the convention, and that he arid his colleagues would vote for another man, but Chairman Adlai Stevenson remarked that the convention upheld Daniel Manning's action in casting the seventy-two votf nf New York as a unit in 1S.H4. and declared that would be the precedent for I inois. There is no doubt that Stevenson will keep his word. He was President ilr.

MISSOURI A UNIT. liar V Will Ha Cmi Slldly far Clav. The Missouri delegation met at II o'clock this morninur, and on the third ballott chose J. fl. Prather national committeeman over Charles II. Jones and Eph F.win. The ilht in this delegation has been a very bitter one, as it is supposed that the next eenatorsbip from Missouri depends upon the choice that was made this morning. Prathcr ia understood to be particularly friendly to Francis, the governor of the etate, and Ewing waa the reprepentative of his brother-in-law, Senator Cockrell. Col. Jones did not urge his candidacy, ana it is understood that the only thing he asked of the delegation was to represent it on the platform committee, a place which was given him without contest. When the delegation met the na tional committeeship was the first matter upon which there waa a dispute, and on the first ballot, amidst some laughter, it was discovered that Ö out of 34 delegates had voted. On tiie second ballot there was no choice, and on the third the count stood: Prather, 18 ; Ewing, 6 ; Jones, 10. C. C. Motiett, one of the delegates-at-large, was eelected chairman of the delegation and the members of the different co rum it teen were named. The caucus then took up the conetruction to be placed upon the instructions given by the Missouri etate convention, especially with regard to the unit rule, and debated it until long: after the dinner hour. After a hard fittht the delegation decided by a unanimous vote to ptand aa a unit for Cleveland as lone as his name was before the convention. .M. E. Clardy yiolently opposed the un.t rule and iu every way endeavored to force individual action. C. H. Jones, however, championed the first proposition, and a,fter a long and bitter litfbt the chairman was orde'ad tocat the entire vote of the utate for Cleveland from tirf-t to last, or until his name was withdrawn. The outcome of the long debate over the instructions in the Missouri delega tion was the decision that the state would vote as a unit for Cleveland as long as his. name was before the convention. Chair man MolTitt was ordered to announce thirty-fuur votes for Cleveland on every ballot until a nomination was reached. California for CITlanl. California will vote as a unit. It was so decided at a caucus held today. A. P. l'.utler, permanent chairman of the dele gation, s.-iid : "Wo are under unit rule and will vote for Mr. Cleveland on the first ballot. If anything should happen to prevent Mr, Cleveland's nomination the delegates from California have resolved to twitch their strength to William C. Whitney of New York, believing that he is tho man next to Cleveland who can carry the etato of New York ami the United States. We Californians are of the opinion that Gorman's chances are not so bright as they were Sundav and we further believe that Mr. Hill's friends will settle on Morrison Sit u tli Carolina for !$ . Enthusiaem at the Eoies' headquarters was stirred to white heat today when Del egato Thomas of South Carolina made his appearance at the Iowa headquarters and whinnered to the chairman of the delegation that South Carolina had voted to cast twelve of her votes for Horace Boies, When the chairman made the aa nouncement to the delegation the room rang with the wildest of cheers, There were assurances tiiat further votes will come from other southern statt, all of which filled the ttoies heart with hope and expectancy. This afternoon and evening there were five thousand members of democratic marching clubs from Iowa in and around the hotel. The Hawkeye flambeau clubs of Keokuk, TOO strong, came in this morning, headed by two bands. A big contingent --f marchers from Cedar Kapids also appeared. They marched to ttie hotel with an enormous oil painting of Governor Boies carried at their beud, and they nearly lifted the roof oil tne I'almer House with tneir snouts. Vermont Solid forGrover. At a caucus of the Vermont delegation this morniug considerable discussion was indulged in as to whether the vote of the etat should be cast as a unit, one of the delegates protestiug vigorously acainst not bein allowed to ca8t his vote dilTerently from the rest ot the delegation; however, it w as seven to one and the unit rule was adopted. The entire vote of the deleaa tion will therefore be cast for Cleveland. District of Columbia Demand Recognition. James !. Norris and II. G. Davis, the delegates of the District of Columbia, and Alternates William II. Manogue and J. F, Kelly are engineering a movement of the territories to secure larger representation in IMttj. By a rule of the national com mitte made several years ago the terri tories have two delegates each. It is as serted that the population of the terri tories has enormously increased since that time and that the best interests o tue democratic party aemana a cor responding increase in the number of rep resentatives. The District of Columbia alone, it is asserted, contributes $50,000 to the campaign fund and in other ways ma terially asiits in the election of democratic presidents, hence ought to have a more influential part in the national con vention. Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Oklahoma are also in the movement heart and soul. PENNSYLVANIA IN LINK. tlr Dalrgatlon TaeMa In Tola as a Vn f ir Cllnl. A signal victory for the Cleveland forces was fought and won today almost without the firing of a gun. It was on the question of the unit rule, and the battle ground was in the Pennsylvania delegation The talk before the Pennevlvanians went into caucus was tha a strong effort was to be made to break the unit rule in tha Kavtona atata. aud

fix

that upon the result of the fight in Pennsylvania would largely hinge the course to be pursued in other delegations where similar conditions existed. Rumors were current that State Senator Wallace would lead the opponents of the unit rule, and when the meeting got under way Wallace was for the moment the cynosure of all eyes. National Committeeman Harrity was equally well understood to be the probable champion of the Cleveland men and the adherents of the policy of having Pennsylvania's vote plumped solidly. Little time was lost in disposing of the

details of the organization to the delega tion. . U. Hersel was elected cnairmaa without opposition, the appointment of a committee of five- to confer with other state delegations was organized, and then, in quick succession, C. W. Ross waa chosen to represent Pennsylvania on the platform committee, 11. A. Hall to serve on the credentials committee. George A. Jenks on rules, A. A. Plummer on organi zation, George Robinson as vice-president and P. J. Corcoran on committee to notify candidates of nomination. The battle royal was now anxiously awaited, and there was a hush of expectancy when the Harrity ferces, instead of waiting for an attack, assaulted the enemy full tit. State Senator Grant Herring, one oi the Cleveland delegates-at-large, gained the floor and threw down the gauntlet to the Wallace contingent bv of fering the following: F.aaolvad. That tbe chairman of the Penaur!. vaoia delegation be iottructed to oait the whole vols of the deleatioa of Pennsylvania for Grorer Cleveland as the nominee for pretiJdnt of the Uniteü State until nominated or otherwife instructed. The anti-unit rule men rallied quickly. John T.Lenihanof Luzerne, a close friend of Senator Wailaoe, promptly moved to mend by substituting the name of Gover nor Pattison of Pennsylvania for that of Cleveland. Committeeman Harrity in a short but forcible epeech earnestly protested against tue amendment. He declared it would he bad faith to the state convention which they represented and which had expected them to vote for Cleveland. This, Mr. Harrity insmted, implied no hofctilüy to Governor Pattison. There waa considerable cheering and when Harritv eat tiown the antis fteemed i hesitaat. The unit rule man seemed to i refill ze that thev had the upper-hand and 1 demanded a roll cab. This was sought to be avoided by the Lawrence men. but the chairman ru'ed that the call must proceed and without de av. The antis had cleverly attempted to bulwark themselves behind Governor Pattwcn a name, but now appeared to realize that there was little hope, and although they claimed about lo anti-Cleveland votes in the delegation, scarcely a quarter of that number, when the pinch came, were ready to toe the mark. Wallace hitcpelf dec ined to vote either way. and the amendment was lost. The vote by which G rover Cleveland was thus guaranteed the votes of Pennsylvania, stood 58 to 4, the minority consibting of Wallace and Lenihan and the Twenty-eighth district delegates, Smoulter and Colina. The announcement of the result was greeted with derisive laughter and catcalling by the Cleveland men, who at once proceeded to re-elect their leader, Harrity, as the national committeeman from Pennsylvania. The election was by acclamation and was declared unanimous. An amused emile crept over Ilarrity's face. The caucus at this point adjourned. He said: "I have heard intimations that the fight against the unit rule is to be transferred to the floor of the convention. If it is I can only aav that we are ready to meet it. Sentor Wallace, I understand, ha been to see a number of the antiCleveland leaders of other states and apprised them of such a plan, but I am also informed that tha proposition was not any too well received. One of the moat prominent of these leaders, who occupies a high official position in the party organization, admitted to me that he did not believe the move would amount to much, if anything." Mr. Harrity would neither deny or af'irm that the information came from Chairman Calvin S. Price. Clark Howell's Kaey Victory. The most interesting development in the work of . the etate delegations today was the surprise brought about by the announcement that Mr. Clark Howell of the Atlanta C-vnttitution has . the unanimous vote of the state delegation as the national committeeman for the next four years, after a vigorous fight by Mr. Hoke Smith, who was a candidate on what he urged as the Cleveland iasue. When the Georgia convention of May 18 went for Cleveland by a close vote, Mr. Smith begun an active fight for the position of national committeeman. This fight he continued until it whs evident that Mr. Howell would defeat bim. Then he urged several other nan.es, but the elJorts being futile he withdrew and left a walkover for Mr. Howell. "abraka Wilt S I t. The poll takon in the Nebraska delegation this evening is strictly in line with the prediction sent out in these dispatches yesterday. The delegation stands, twelve Cievelani, three Gorman and one Pattison of Pennsylvania. Nebraska does not believe in the unit rule, and its vote on the first ballot was accordingly as btsted above. One of the three Gorman men ia Governor Boyd, who said: "It is with us merely a matter of personal judgment. We doubt Cleveland's ability to carry New York, and we are trying to suggest to the country Rome man outside of that etate upon whom both factions can unite. If Gorman is not that man. show us who can bring union to New York, and he will have ourearnett support." INDIANA IS SPLIT. rifteen Each for Cleveland, and Gray Xo Unit Rule. CHICAGO, June 18.

When Jude Ayres called order and the roil of the members had been called by becretary Pro Tern Foster, Mr. . I Moris moved that Senator Voorhees be selected chairman of tbe delegation, which motion was unaniiaouily carried. Senator Voorhees on taking the ehair made a few remarks, in wbiea he expressed the hope that the delegation would act harmoniously, and ia such a way as to put tbe state of Indiana before the convection and tbe country in a position of dignity and influence. On motioa of Delegate Foster Editor Jennings of the Salem Democrat was made secretary of tbe delegation. Mr. Hugh Dougherty, delegste-at-large, then oCered the following resolution: "Keaolvsd unanimously by this delegation. That it vote as a unit upon all questions that come before the convention in accordance with the decision ot a majority ibereof." This reiolation bad been agreed upon at a caucus of tbe Gray or anything-to-beat Cleveland delegates held tfiis mornn;. Mr. Morse made the point that as tbe resolution required a unanimous vote to be elfectire, a single objection would suffie to defeat iL Senator Voorhees ruled that the point was well taken. Mr. John Lamb, however, insisted that the resolution should be discussed aud Voted upon.

This ended the unit rule scheme and showed that ttie delecation would evenly divide on the first ballot for president. Mr. Kichardsou, who was elected a delegate under instructions for Cleveland voted with tbe Cleveiaud men on this question, but in tbe subsequent proceedings voted with the any-thing-to-beat-Cleveland party. The aiiti-Clevelandites at this caucus had determined to appropriate every position in the tsft of their delegation if they could command the votes to do so a piece of poroine politics eminently cbaracteristio of Charles L. Jewett and John Lamb. Senator Voorhees being provided for with the chairmanship, the other two acythiog-to-heat-Cleveland delegates-at-large, -Mr. Jewett and Mr. Dougherty, were assigned respectively to tbe committee on resolutions and the committee on organization. Mr. Moras, the Cleveland-delegate-at-large, was shut out. John Lamb was assigned to the com it tee on credentials to protect the interests of 11 ill and Tammany before that body. Mr. Murdock was slated for vioe-president. Mr. Cull op, who aspires to be speaker of the next house of representatives, was fixed up with the committee to notity tbe candidates for irebtdent and vice-president, and Judge 7ollard, ia whose county every town ship save one declared unanimously for Cleveland at the conventions th select delegates to the state convention, was given the oommittee on rules. As the auytbioK-to-beat-Clevelaud crowd bid tbe assistance in this proersm of Richardson, elected as Cleveland delegate from the first district. the Clevelaad delegates made no general resistanceIn order to put the gentlemen, on record, however, Judue Ayres was pitted against Mr. Dougherty for the platform committee; Dr. bhirley aeainst John Lamb for the credentials committee, and Mr. Foster against Mr. Cullop for the notification committee. Each were defeated by a margin of two or three vote, tbe greatest strength shown by the anythiuif-to-beat-Cleveland-party being seventeen. This does cot, however, represent its size on tbe presidential question, which, as explained above, will not exceed tmeen. Judge Ayres did not wish to be voted for for the platform committee, but his wishes were disregarded by his friends. The refusal to give Mr. Foster the recognition asked for by him was peculiarly ungracious in view of the crest amount of work he has done in providing quar ters and making other necessary arrangements for the comfort and convenience of the delega tion. Mieeirln Ke-elseted. Mr. S. P. Sheerin was unanimously re-elected a tbe Indiana representative on the national committee for the next four years, a deserved compliment to a sound democrat and an ad mirable gentleman. Mr. Frank Eurke was unanimously elected assistant secretary of tbe convention. AH the positions in the gift ot the delegation having been given to the anti-Clerelandites, Mr. Moras moved that the delegation adjourn to meet next Tuesday at convention hall. Mr. Lamb and others insisted, however, thst another meeting should be held Monday for the purpose ot advising- the ehairtnan of the delegation how to cast its vote for president, so an adjournment was taken until Monday after noon at 4 o'clock. Nme ot the Cleveland delegates are highly indignant over what they regard as a breach of faith on the part ot certain delegates who were parties to the compromise agreement, which was ratified by the state convention in April. and who were sent to this convention under their solemn pledges to five an honest sup. port to Mr. Cleveland. Mr. Mors, however. is not ruffled over iL Be says tonight: "I aspired to none of the honors in tbe gift ot the delek'atU'U, and therefore have ao diaappoiotcituts. I am in tbe best possible humor because Mr. Cleveland's nomination is assured. lie ia certain to be eelected on tbe first ballot whether he receives fifteen or thirty votes from Indiana. If tie delegation should vote solidly for him it is possible that the nomination o Governor Gray for viee-president might be brought about, but if the delegation divides evenly tbe vice-presidential nomination will go to Iowa or Illinois, and Governor Gray will owe bis failure to be on tbe ticket to the blunders of those wao are here In the capacity of his friends. My ticket from ttie start has been Cleveland and Gray. With this ticket we ran carry Indiana by a sub stantial majority, I believe, however, tbat Cleveland, with either Morrison. Stephenson or Boies, can alsa carry Indiana, but Gray has been my preference for second plaoe. Bat in view of what took place today it is going to he a very difficult matter to get bim the support of even the solid Indiana delegation lor the seoond place on the tioket.

He was met at tbe station by Governor1 Russell, who is to return with the ex-Dreeident to Grar

Gables this afternoon. Mr. Cleve'and eaid: "I merely came up to Boston on a social trip. I had intended to come np last week, Lut my rheumatism would not allow me to. Today is tbe eecond one in which I have worn a boot and I am very p'ad of it. I thought I could not come to Boston without calling on the governor. There is nothing political in my trip whatever. It is merely a eocial visit." RUMORED RECONCILIATION.

The Faction In New York May Yet Come Together.

BOIES A LAST HOPE. The Cleveland Opposition Trjing to Center on the Iotvan. The opposition to Cleveland's nomina tion, fiudiug that the "feeler" put out in behalf of Mr. Gorman as a candidate around whom to ral y strength enough to beat the leader and prevent his securing two-thirds on the first ballot, did not meet with a reception sufficient to warrant the belief in the success of a movement in this direction, this morning turned toward the idea of tbe Iowa democrats, and Horace Boies was the name most talked of. The effect has bten to give increased prominence to tbe Holes boom and aid and comfort to the n anat-rs of the interests of the governor of the Hnkeye hUte. The Boies men have been working earnestly and persiternl v at all titr.es in behalf of their candica'.e, and have unfalteringlv declared their inteniion to etau'l by their candidate for first place. There has been more enthusiasm attachiniz to the cause than to anv o tbe other leaders except Cleveland. They have secured scattering; support of Mr. 15oies from various sections where there was opposisition to Cleveland. In the Kocky Mountain region thev have heretofore met with the best renalta, the S.uth being more disposed toward candidates with whom it was belter acquainted, but this morning they were cheered with the intelligence that the South Carolinians, fearful of Mr. Cleveland's strength, were willing to give ceventeen votes to tho Hoi en men. It was alao reported that Mr. l'rice and Mr. Watterson were friendly in clined toward the Boies movement and were willing to lend it what aPFiatance they could. The Virginia delegation, the lsoies men claim, were now in some doubt. The Cleveland-Hill fight has been very warm in lrginia and each 6ido has claimed a majority of tbe delegates from the old dominion. Th" Boies men say that some of these votes may come to them, but do not go beyond this statement, acknowl edging that no decision has yet been reached. A member of the delegation from Iowa is authority for the statement that Chairman Shields has received an intimation that Mr. lirice and Mr. Watterhon would throw votes toward Mr. Boies, and had conveyed to him (Shields) the opinion that by a combination on Hoies in the Weet and outh, with iiili controlling the New YorK voto and some other votes, Cleveland's nomination would be prevented on the early ballots, after which some lukewarm but instructed Cleveland men could be expected to break away. The California delegation is bound to Cleveland by instructions of a qualified nature and tho fact that the delegates could not have come here if they had not been for Cleveland. Some of them would like to go for Mr. Boies, who. as a western man and friendly to silver, is regarded with interest. Delegate Foote of Oakland waa one of those men, and expressed doubt about Mr. Cleveland's avai.abi ity. The silver issue, he said, had weakened Cleveland. Mr. Boies, Mr. Foote said, would get bis vote but for the fact that ho was instructed to vote for Cleveland. Senator Carlisle does not take kindly to the Boies movement, and opposition to it is likely to develop this evening when the Kentucky delegation meets. Grni.r Ki sg Cool. Buzzard's Bay, Mass., June 20. Grover Cleveland and his charming little family are enjoying life tt their beautiful home, Grey Gables. The clicking of the telegraph is to be heard at Grey (Tables this week, for both compauies have offered ro run a wire from the railway and to install an operator in the house, but otherwise the distinguished occupant of the mansion will remain undisturbed by the clamor of political factions. PRESS COMMENTS. Tho "World" Gives Some Pointers What the "Herald" Says. "kw York, June 20. The H'orM (dem.) will say editorially tomorrow: The New York deleaatien to Chicago is tied with a resolution to support Senator Hill so long as he was a candidite. Senator Hid is not a candidate but is simply holding the delegation together asa means of beating Mr. Cleveland now a forloce and futile hope. The nomination of Mr. Bill has long been seeu to be whohy improbable. It is now known to be impossible should tne New York delegation lend iiself to an eff ort to thwart the wish of tbe democracy of tbe nation and to deleat tiie ana New Yorker that can be nominated. This is not democracy. It is not riifht. It is not good politics. The e.aiiu that Mr. Cleveland cunnot carry New York is ill founded. He can carry it if auy democrat ean. He is stronger in this state than auy other man who i named. The Herald editorially says: "While the signs of the times point to Cleveland, there are several "ills" to be moved before he can have a clear right of way. The oppoftitioa to him is not only determined, but eifective. It is based on well grounded fears, one of which ii that he can not carry New York state. Sentiment is well enough and has its use, but good politics prompt the leaders of a party to choose the candidate who can command the largest number ot votes. The word "available" is one of the most important words in the political vocabulary. If Cleveland is available, all right; if he is not available, or if there ia any doubt of hia availability, tne party that Dominates him assumes serious risks; Harrison beat bim in 6 1SH. aud it cannot be gainsated that complications, animosifiea, and hostilities are euch just now that Harrison will have a great advantace, while Cleveland will be seriously handicapped. It looks just now as though Cleveland had made a bareain with Tammany or was about to make one. The Ti'ms will say: ginoe the delegates began to gather at Chiraxo it baa beoome more and more evident, almost hourly, that the mighty tide of art sentiment in favor of Clevesnd's nomination would prove irresistible. Delegates from all parts ef the country know Children Cry for

perfectly well tbat he was the choice of the people and tbat opposition to Him came oaly from a few plotting politicians. The faot of the matter is that the democratia sentiment of tbe country has made itself unmistakably known, and the eflort to work against it has been hopeless from the start. It was not conceived that the delegates gathered at Chicago, knowing this sentiment, and for tbe most part thoroughly imbued with it themselves, should for a moment submit to its being defeated by a few scheming politicians wboe only argument was a threat tbat the people's choice oould not be elected because their followers in ew Yoik would not support him. The whole force of this argament lay in the implication of intended treachery, and it excited only iulit;natiou; beside, it is effectually answered by a demonstration that Cleveland would be strouger in New Yor than any other possible candidate. But it is onlv necessary to wail for the hours to pais until a ballot is reached, when the opposition to Cleveiaud will Le broken and dissolved in the tide of pent-no enthusiasm that is waiting and chaüng to be let loose. THE CLUBS ARRIVE.

Tammany Makes the Kirst DisplayOther Arrivals. The greatest sensation of the day outfide of political devtlopaient was the arrival of the Tammany braves irom New York. Nine hundred of them marched into the Leland hotel this afternoon. A etutfed tiger had been plcel over the desk of the hotel clerk, looking fierce and life-like, anil the braver JolTed their hats to the animal. Tummany reigned supreme. The larger part of the braves were fine-looking men and were greatly admired by the vast crowds who had gathered amund the Michigan Central depot and the hotels to witness their arrival. All wore badges marked '"Tammany Hall," and the majority of tht-m wore miniature pictures of Senator Hill upon their c ata. Among the bit; chieftains in tbe party were Commissioner Hcrnsrd Martin, Quar antine Commissioner Charles Al en, Register Frank J. Fitzgerald, John ii. CrimmoDS, D. Lavton Trippal, Bridge Commissioner H. Schwab, Alderman Iiinch.oir, J. C. Wond, Thomas Ltamya. Warden Charles Fa Ion, Police Justice Kyan, CommisHioner Wa ton Storm and Jot-eh I Berry, It took two hours and teveral big drays to unload from tbe train w hich bore the brave' coiuniiearv department, which rivaled the California deieati m in ttie number of barrels of beer, cases of champagne, ten-vrar-old Kentucky and wiues of various kinds. The Tammany men did not remain iu their quarters lon. Thev were anxious for inforuiat.ou on tho situation. The reports that they bad received while on the way regarding the Hill boom were rather disoouratrin and the iiiont of them at once hurried to the headquarters at the Auditorium hotel. There thev were aesurd that the Hill boom was very much alive and that reports which had gone out to the contrary were mugwump liea. Few of the bin T.mmany contingent had anything ill to aay of Cleveland. Thev all talked HiJ and paid they were confident that ha would be the nominee but there did not ff in to be a treat amount of enthusiasm or earnetntsa in their avowals. Bridge Commissioner Schwab, who is one of the leaders in the councils of Tarumsny, eaid: "Taunnauy will support tho nominee, be he Cleveland or anv other man. Our candidate is David U. Hill, lirct, laet and all tho time. We think be will be nominated. lie is gaining fctrt ntfth every hour. He never lost a political battle in his life and the delegates who are not bound down band and foot to Cleveland are betfinninu to see that under the superb leodership of Hill New York would be as sure to eo democratic as Texan. Mr. Hill is particularly strong in the silver etate?, ecd you will be surprised at the votes in thoee etates' "Then Mr. Cleveland if nominated will not te knifed?'' "Tammany will support the nominee. It never bolts a ticket. I cannot, of course, speak for individuals, but you can put it . down as certain that Tammany as an organization will be "loyal to whomsoever the convention names, enatt.r Hih, however, can command man)' thousand more votes in New York than Cleveland. His plurality would be greater than that which the state gave him in lSvi for governor." Justice Kyan eaid: "There is bitter opposition in New York to Mr. Cleveland. He lost the state in ltvS-S and is less popular now than when we had the whole federal patronage to aid him. I believe he would be defeated. That seems to Lethe general sentiment among Tammany men." "Who is talked of as second choice'.'" "I am not informed as to the preferences of the delegates but think i am eafe in savin that C eveland is not the second choice. He might be our thirty-fifth oi thirty-sixth choice, but I doubt it." Mr. Croker was in conference with many of the Tammany leaders who arrived today and they were ordered to report "in the morning for duty. Mr. Croker has planned a combined assault on ttie delegates from the pro-silver states, and most of the braves wili be assigned to missionary work amon them. Senator Hill's letter contained in the Associated I'resa dispatcbeH and published this morning advocating free bimetallic coinage, will be placed in the hands of the delegates from the West and South, and they will be given assurance that if nominated and elected Senator Hill will not f to a silver bill. "Hill men every one, first, last and all the time," was the description of tha Kings county democracy as given by John Deltnar, marshal of the oreanization, as he halted his command before tho Sherman house entrance this afternoon. "We are for David Ii. Hill." taid JMr. Delaiar. "Every man is for him and no oni eine or we would not be here. "W e have no other object in the world." Some more Boie shouters arrived tonight. The Jefferson flambeau club of Keokuk, Ia., came in with 0 metnbern, the Horace Boies club of Sioux City with the name number, and the Creston tarilf reform club with oniy forty members, but with ten car loads of promiscuous Boies enthusiasts. The Cleveland club and the GermanAmerican club of Indianapolis, 3'H) stront, arrayed in white plugs and linen dusters, reached here thi afternoon and marched in the rear of a drum corps of forty past the I'almer house, where, from the windows of every headquarters, they were cheered by enthusiastic Clevelandites.
