So much has been said about the feel ing against Depew in the granger States being so strong that his can dicacy would be hopeless that Mr. Depew desired to find out ior himself what that feeling was; Yesterday he re ceived snch assurances from Minneso ta and' other States which had before been reckoned as against him that he finally decided to go into the contest When Mr. Depew's determination was made known a . meeting of the ,New York delegation was called and the matter laid before the body, which at once resolved to aupport him with the whole strength of the delegation.

SKIRMISHING ON THE BATTLE GROUND CHICAGO. IN PEILIHI5AET TO THE OSXAT FIGHT BID- KISO TOD AT THE BtJTTOS-HOLTSO r OTHXB, KIWS. By Telegraph to the News and Observer. Chicago, III., June 18- The skir mishing preliminary to the great bat tle which will be formally opened in the convuution was unusually active and agg. essive in the hotel corridor! this mo ning. At an early hour groups of politicians were congre gated in he lobbies, talking over the situation, and though there was noth ing definite which he friends of any candidate could use as a basis for their enthusiasm . predictions and counter-predictions were loudly and vigorously indulged in: The doors of the headquarters of the various State delegations stood invitingly : open and within eager badge-bedecked gentlemen stood ready to seize upon any passing delegate and imprest upon him tho desirability, if hot the absolute necessity, of the Republican convention nomina ting this or that favorite son in ordct to bring assured success at the polls in November next. At an early hour the decks of the owa headquarters were cleared for action and Gen. Henderson was soon pn the scene directing operations. The announcement of Depew s can didacy seemed but to have invigora ted the Allison forces. They predict (hat this convention in its present un certain condition is a peculiarly aus picious one for the "reserve" candi dates, of whom they say their favo rite is the strongest. The Republican national commit tee met at noon to select a temporary chairman for the convention. M. M.-Estee, of California, and John M. Thurston, of Nebraska, were the only names presented! The vote was a tie. Chairman Jones cast the de ciding rote in favor of Thurston. The nomination was then made unani mous, j In the matter of the contesting del egations from Maryland it was de cided to lay the whole subject upon the table. The result will be to ad mit the regular delegates recom mended by Gary, a member of the na tional committee from that State. The Virginia contest involving the seating of sixteen anti-Mahone dis trict delegates were reopened by Blair, of Virginia, moving for a re consideration, j 'Messrs. Elkins and Lawson, of New York, joined in opposing strenuously any reconsideration wnatever The reconsideration was defeated by a vote of 26 to 11. 'When the action of the committee on temporary chairmanship was an nounced the Californians, thoroughly unused to defeat, were simply dumb founded. : Their opponents, however, were not lees surprised, the closene off the vote being almost wholly un expected. -The concensus of opinion from the people in tne corridors was tnat lur. Estee would have won on hiB position as an anti-monopoly candidate, but the friends of top many favorite candidates fot this Presidency would; be largely against sucn pronounced recognition off an out and out Blaine delegation aa the men from the Pacific slope. It was a verdict which i secured a reac tion against the Californians too pre viously shouting for Blaine. The Chi cago men, who will make the nomt nating speeches, have been decided upon. At the caucus ot the New York delegation today it was decided that Depew should be Dlaced in nOm ination by ex-Senator Warner Miller, of New York. The speech, in second ing the nomination, Will probably be made by (leneral Knapp, although the delegation has not decided den nitply whether to have a seconding speech or not. Sherman will be nominated by D. H Hastings, Adjutant General of he State of Pennsylvania. Gov. Forakerj of Ohio, will second the nomination. The speech placing Mr. Alger, of Michigan, in nomination will be made by Bobt. E. Frazier. of Detroit. W. Hepburn, of Clarmda, Iowa, will nominate Senator Allison of that State. Mr. Harrison's nomination will be in the hands of ex-Gov. A. G. Porter, of Indiana. The name of Mayor Fitler, ofrhiladelphis, will be placed in nomination by Charles Emery Smith, of the Philadelphia frees. : l here will be no seconding speech. Foreign.

New Xm Commercial aod Financial Chronicle Fkidat Night, June 15, 1888. There has been comparatively little speculation, and in most commodities Only a moderate legitimate business, though the more seasonable weather has caused some in ere see in the hitter direction, more , especially f howeverj in the retail and jobbing trades. The Speculative fluctuations have been in fluenced by reports of the critical condition of the Emperor of Ger many. : The grain trade has been un favorably affected by the new law which materially reduces the charges of tha elevator companies here, and which is therefore regarded as. preju dicial to the export business in grain at this port.' The prospects are rather more favorable for the crops in this country. The effect of the Emperor Frederick's death, which occurred this morning, had been discounted in commercial circles. Lard on the spot has been very dull, but prices have been fairly well maintained, closing dull at 8.15o for prime city, 8.75a8.80c for prime to choice Western, 8.60c for refined to the continent and 9 75c for refined to South. America. The speculation in lard for future delivery has' continued ioggiah, prices making slight fluc tuations, being dull today, witn an unsettled closing.

Rosin has been fairly active at decline to $l15a$1.20 for common to good strained. -. ' r lhe speculative transactions in cotton for future delivery at this mar ket have still kept within narrow limits and the fluctuations have been sluggish, though generally in the di rection of higher prices, lsuils stui cite the decrease in the visible supply and the large consumption as faotors favorable to a rise, while then: oppo nenis point to the still liberal stocks at the South, and the large interior and seaboard , movement ; of the crop. The publication ; oi tne acreage and condition report caused a slight advance here and a sharp rise in Liverpool, Dut private1 dispatches indicating that the conditions have improved since June 1 caused some realizing. On Monday there was a small advanoe in response to si rise in Liverpool, but it was partly 4ost owing to further real izing and the continuation Of tne sell ing on Tuesday caused a ; moderate decline, due also to liberal receipts at the ports and favorable crop advioes On Wednesday a decline in Liverpool caused a further fall in prices here, which was partly recovered on the Eublication of Ellison's statistical ex ibit, which was somewhat favorable to the bulls, and on reports of colder weather at the South, especially cold nights in Texas. On Thursday an unexpected rise in Liverpool led to an advance here, though later in the day there was some reaction, owing to a rather weaker market in Liverpool, more favorable : crop ad vices And continued realizing. Today there was an early decline, owing to an easier market in .Liverpool, but when prices rallied there, the market hero recovered the early decline, en oouraged also by a pretty good de mand on the spot, and a decrease in the interior movement . Cotton oh the spot has been more active, mainly for home consumption, though busi ness for export has been lair, ine offerings have been less liberal, and pricess advanced l-16c on Monday, and good middling was- 1-lCo dearer on Thursday. Today there was a fair business at firm and unchanged quo tations, middling uplands closing at 100. The figures indicate decrease in the cotton in sight tonight of 252,484 bales as compared with the same date of 1887, a decrease of 323,401 .bales as compared with the corresponding date of 1886 and a decrease ol 255,784 bales as compared with 1885.

The receipts at the same towns have been a,w bales more than the same week, doing no harm except interrupting work. A Sel.aUfle Benefactor.
