Chicago, June 22. Tlie New York dele
gation was closing this morning to a last
desperate hope of defeating the nomina
tion of G rover Cleveland. They were
seeking to unite the opposition to him
on some new candidate and the name
most frequently heard in connection
withthe possibility of a new combination
was thac of Gen. Henry W. Slocum. of
New York. G ornian, the New Yorkers
would have nothing to do with. The
New York delegates are very indignant
with the Maryland Senator, whom they
charge with having broken their com
bination against Cleveland two days
ago, after encourarinir them to believe
that he would stand by them. They
talked freely about Mr. Gorman and
told some of the inside history of the
Gornian movement of Sunday and its re
lation to the Hill movement. . Mr. Gor
man and Mr. Bricc, they say, encouraged
the Hill leaders in New York State to
call the mid-winter convention. Mr.
Gorman promised that the Maryland con
vention should be held soon after the
convention at Albany. It was part of
the policy of the anti-Cleveland people
to weaken the strength of Cleveland
throughout the country by having his
State instructed for liill and by follow
ing this with an anti-CIovel md conven-

tion in Maryland which has always been
a Cleveland stronghold. Mr. Gor
man, the Hill men say, broke
faith in this and did not have
the Maryland convention called until
almost every other convention in the
country had been held. Two weeks ago
Mr. Gorman met Senator Hill, Mr. Mur
phy and Mr, Shehan in New York. This
meeting was chronicled in the papers,
but no statement was made public of
what had been done. The Hill men say
that the meeting was held at the in
stance of Mr. Gorman to consider the
opposition to Cleveland. Mr. Gorman
urged Mr. Hill and his friends to make
the fight against Cleveland at Chicago
and promised them his support. He in
tended at that time to remain in the
East, but Mr. Hill urged him to go to
Chicago, and he finally consented to do
so. Arriving there, he continued to con
fer with the Hill people, and at one of
these conferences, hld last Sunday, he
authorized them to use his name in
the effort to form a combin
ation against Cleveland. All of
J this, they say, they have now discovered
was lor me purpose oi turthenng the
selfish ambition of Mr. Gorman. When
they laid before Mr. Gorman the results
of their canvass, showing that with his
name they could prevent the nomination
of Mr. Cleveland on the first ballot they'
diti not show enough strength to assure
to Mr. Gorman the nomination, and he
thereupon repudiated tiie whole arrange
ment and went into the Cleveland cam
paign. Mr. Gorman's side of the tpues
tion has not been stated in full, but his
friends in the Maryland delegation have
given out since the canvass of Monday
the statement that he refused to permit
his name to be used and that his refusal
was oecause he believed that it was to
be put up only for the purpose of beating
Mr. Cleveland.
A ho tit tlie I nit Itule.
Thf policy of the anti-Cleveland lead
ers, it was announced, would be a policy
of delay. They succeded last night in
getting from the sub committee of the
committee on rules a report against
the unit rule. The announcement of this
fact created a sensation last night when
it came out. It filled the Cleveland men
with surprise and apprehension. They
realized later though that the rules of
the convention are made by a simple ma
jority and not a two-thirds majority of
the convention aud that whether the full
committee sustained the action of the
sub committee or not, the report would
be beaten in the convention. At
torney General Ilensle, of Penn
sylvania, said after the meet
inir: "They caught us nappin' in the
j sub-committee and the matter went
practically by default." The Illinois del
egation is not at all satisfied with the
adoption of the unit rule, but an attempt
by the New lork men to break it by of-
ing a combination of Slocum aud
Morrison has not met with sufficient fa
vor to warrant the belief that the action
)f the delegation will be rescinded be
fore the first ballot is taken.
Talk About Sceoiul IMaee.
Not only are the Illinois men restive
ibout the unit rule but they are displeas
ed with the combination believed to
have been made by the Cleveland snaps
for vice-president. Illinois has two
favorite ones who are candidates for
is me vice-presiuency. one oi mem is
a very dark horse Hon. Lambert Tree.
flie other, Hon. Adlai h. Stevenson,
has been exploited for some time as a
good man for the second place on the
ticket in the case the presidency went to
the East. The friends of Mr. Cleveland
were fearful of the trouble that other
delegations would make if they thought
that the support of the Indian was gained
through a trade, and they have denied
constantly that there is any agreement
for the nomination of Mr. Gray. It
seems possible that if they have made
a trade they will not be able to deliver
the goods even if Mr. Cleveland is nomi
nated. There will be several candidates
for the second place, and if Cleveland is
nominated on the first ballot, as his
friends still profess to believe that he
will be, there will be still a fight
over the vice-presidency which
will make the convention live
ly. Michigan will put up Judge
Morse, Illinois, Mr. Stevenson and
California Congressman Geary. Then
Horace Boies, of Iowa, is a strong possi
bility although his supporters now re
fuse to consider his availability for any
but the first place on the ticket.
fiornian Sick.
Chicago, June 22. Senator Gorman,
of Maryland, as the result of yesterday's
storm, was assailed last night by his old
euemy, neuralgia, and was confined to
his room. His indisposition gave rise
to many rumors, some of them quite sen
sational. To a reporter for the United
Press, who called on him this morning,
the Senator said that he was much bet
ter and under the influence of the bright
cheering weather which prevails to-day
would soon be entirely recovered.
Chicago, June 22. Chairman Ed.
Murphy confirmed this morning the
statement that the test vote would be
made of the question of adopting the
unit rule in the convention.

Mr. tjroKer received this morning a

The Contest Decided.
Chicago, June 22. It was 3 o'clock
this morniug when the committee on
credentials adjourned- The Alabama
contest was decided in favor of the
Jones delegates, the Kolb delegation be
ing given scats in the convention but no
vote. The Indian Territory contest was
decided by admitting both delegations,
giving each of the delegates one-half a
vote. The contests in the 23rd and 25th
districts of Pennsylvania were decided
by seating the contestees. The contest
in the first Ohio district and the Utah
contest were referred to a sub co-nmittee
He was received with great ap
plause. The Senator, after appealing
for harmony, in part said. "The great
work of restoring constitutional liberty
devolved upon the democratic party.
They should n-t let personal interest di
vide them. There should be no skulkers
in the camp. The men presented to them
were all patriotic men. i hey could not
easily make a mistake. They must get
a firm, unswerving democrat and put the
flag in his hands. At this point the gal
lerie3 started the cry of "Hill" and there
were mingled cheers for a minute. The
convention quieted dowu presently. Con
tinuing, Mr. Palmer said that as sure as
the republican party was triumphant,
there would be a force bill such as the
ingenuity of John Davenport and the
devil might suggest. The republicans at
Minneapolis had declared themselves for
more McKiuleyism. The country was to
be fettered. The farmers must toil for
the trusts and the monopolies. The
democratic party mut have no juggling
of words in its platform. "What about
silver?" said some one in the gallery, but
Mr. Palmer ignored the question.
As the applause which greeted the
close of Palmer's speech died away,
there were cries of "Fellows," and Mr.
Fellows, standing on his chair and
speaking with his characteristic clear
ness of tone, ' declined for
democrats who were not delegates
Mr. Fellows was loudly cheered. The
chairman announced that the committee
on credentials was ready to report, and
Mr. Lamb, of Indiana, took the plat
form and read the report.
Credential Itepoi t.
Announcing the decision to give
Arizona and New Mexico six delegates
each, Mr. Lamb said that this decision
was reached because the territories had
been -declared from the sisterhood of
States on the sole ground that they were
democratic, and further from the fact
that a democratic house had already
passed an enabling act for these terri
tories. There was no objection to it and
it was adopted. The chairman then an
nounced that the committc on permanent
organization was ready to report. It
named W. L. Wilson, of West Virginia,
for permanent chairman and continued
the other officers of the temporary or
ganization. The announcement of Mr.
Wilson's name was met with loud ap
plause.
"Ta-Ita-lta ISooin Ie-A j
The committee was nearly five minu
tes getting together, and the band was
playing "Ta-Ra Ra Boom De-Ay" when
the escort committee and permanent
chairman walked up the south aisle and
acioss the convention hall to the plat
form. Temporary chairman Owens shook
hand3 with Mr. Wilson and then stepped
Right
after this
which he took.
Mr. Murphy said to a United Press re
porter: "We are ready to vote now. We
have G30 voses and can beat the nomina
tion of Cleveland. Cleveland people are
afraid to vote now and want adjourn
ment. We shall oppose it." J. W.
Hinckley, of the New York dele
gation said: "We have the necessary
vote to beat them, but they
are beginning to hedge and talk
ing adjouriiinent. They know that we
hold the necessarv votes. " Wm. C.
Whitney when told what Mr. Murphv
had said, replied: "It is not true. We
do not wish to adjourn. We are ready
to vote to-night and will vote. We don't
intend to rest over night. We will force a
vote to-night."
Evening Session.
Chicago, June 22. When the con
vention re assembled the atmosphere was
almost unbearable. New Yorks entrance
was greeted with cheers and anticipa
tion of a coming scrimmage. Horace
Boies' band came in accompanied
by its followers all waving their
hats and all the Tammany men joining
m with shouts of calls and cheers. All
the other anti Cleveland men joined in,
thu3 seeming to indicate that the present
purpose of the opposition is to combine
on the successful Iowa Governor. One
enthusiastic Cleveland man attempted to
create a counter demonstration by wav
ing a Cleveland picture but without ef
fect. After the Boies men had settled
down somebody in the gallery shouted,
"Hurrah for Cleveland," which 'started
cheering, but neither loud nor long con
tinued. Chairman Wihon took his seat
at 5:15 and rapped to order. Order was
slow in coming and so was business.
After prayer the band played aud the
delegates sat perspiring, fanning them
selves and waiting for the platform. In
the middle of the turmoil aud confusion
a delegate (unidentified) moved to ad
journ to 11 o'clock to-morrow. There
were cries of "no," and when the ques
tion was put and received a decisive neg
ative, cheers went up from the New York
delegates, whoee policy is now to take a
first ballot to-night, arose to their feet
and cheered, waving their plans. A
Kansas delegate got the floor to present
a resolution. Mr. Powers, of Michigan,
was standing on a chair supported by
Don M. Dickinson, demanding recogni
tion. He got it in a minute aud announced
that the committee on resolutions would

the great majority of the American peo

We declare it to be the fundamental
principle of the democratic party that
the federal government has no constitu

only (renewed and long-continued cheer
ing) and demand .that the collection of
such taxes shall be limited to the neces
sity of the government honestly ami eco
nomically administered. '
Mr. Vilas said that this resolution
which it was proposed to strike out, was
a resolution reported to the convention
of 1881, over which he presided, and it
was presented by William Watterson, of
Indiana, and no voice sounded sweeter
In its behalf than that of Mr. Watterson.
Concluding Mr. Vilas said that no one
wouhl accept this substitute more quickly
than he. In conclusion he suirircstcd
that the convention take in these words
and leave there those on which Mr.
Cleveland was elected President.
Chairman Jones, of the commitee.
then took the platform and said: "I
wish to say on lndialf of the committee
on resolutions-that wc accept the amend
ment of the gentleman from Ohio. Mr.
Watterson came forward. lie said the
convention ought to be iu formed whether
it was proposed to adopt these, amend
ments as a substitute or to tack it on as
a tail to the other. There were cries of
"nit"' all over the hall aud when the
chairman (Mr. Wilson) explained that it
was the desire of the committee to accept
the amendment as an addition there was
;reat confusion ami cries of "no" ami

Then the call of the roll proeccded, the

As Mr. Wilson came forward
he was received with a storm of applause.
He looked carefully over the convention
during a minute of silence then began
his speech. Evidently Mr. Wilson knew
the temper and the disposition of his audi
ence. The keynote of tariff reform which
he struck in almost the first sentence was

the platform upon which his candidacy
was to rest. Mr. Whitney when asked
if this was true said that in a measure it
was. Mr. Cleveland had asked him to
keep him informed upon the principal
plank and he had done so. It is believed
that the Anti Cleveland people will make
their fight to-night on the silver plank
in the platform and Mr. Whitney said
he so understood it.
Tlie Convention Yesterday.
Precisely at 11:30 temporary chairman
Owens rapped the convention to order
and called upon the Rev. Alfred Henry,
of the Methodist Episcopal church of
Chicago, to offer prayer. He asked that
the convention be guided to choose a
representative of modern progressive
democracy, and prayed that the party
might proceed to victory not for the
spoils of othce. Just as the prayer was
concluded the Iowa phalanx entered the
hall, the big blue banner with the pic
ture of Horace Boies borne in front of
them. There were cheers from all parts
of the hall, and the band, inappro-
priatedly struck up "alarylana, my
Maryland," When the music ceased
the temporary chairman brought his
travel down and announced that
tRe first busiuess of the conven
tion would be the report of
the committee on credentials. He asked
if that committee was ready to report,
Mr. Shaw, of Maryland, from the extreme
rear of the hall, replied that they were
not. The chair: "At what time can the
committee state that they will be ready?"
Mr. Shaw: "Not before 2 o'clock."
This announcement was received with a
subdued murmur of disappointment.
The chairman enquired what was the
next pleasure of the convention,
the committees not being ready
to report. Mr. Bronson, of Kentucky,
got the iloor and moved that the

were cries ot go on, go
Wilson did go on but not much
farther. When he concluded his speech
the delegates, rising to their feet waved
their hats as they cheered again and
again. Martin L. Clardy, of Missouri,
was recognized to present a resolution
thanking the temporary chairman. It
was adopted.
Utile of Last Convention.
Mr. English, of Indiana, chairman of
the committee on rules and order of
business, then took the platform aud read
the committee's report recommending
that the rules of the last National Demo
cratic convention shall be adopted for
the government of the convention. To
the surprise of the convention no minor
ity report was presented, and on motion
the majority report presented by Mr.
English was adopted without objection.
Tlie t.avel Presented.
Mr. Phelps, of Missouri, was recog
nized to present a zinc gavel. He said:
"Mr. Chairman, in behalf of the zinc
producers and miners of Missouri, I pre
sent to you this gavel, not made of tin
or stolen from a Nebraska homestead,
but mined and made in Jasper county,
Missouri, and bearing the inscription,
"We need no protection," as a protest
against the mockery of legislation which
imposes a useless tarul of thirty per
cent, upon the metal as a pretext for
taxing the lamp, pick, shirt and blanket
os the miner more than forty per cent."
Campbell Speaks.
Ex-Governor Campbell was invited to
address the convention, amid cheers, the
band playing "The Campbells are Com
ing." Mr. Campbell was escorted to the
platform. The chair, in introducing
him, said that the camel was tne lavonte
democratic animal. Gov. Campbell com
menced in an ordinary tone ol voice.
chair appoint a committee of two to wait There were cries of "louder," to which
on the committee on credentials and ask he replied: "I would oe giaa to taiK
when they would be ready to report.
The motion was agreed to.
Millc Called For.
The chair again asked the convention
its pleasure. Just then some one in the
galleries caught sight of Senalor Mills,
of Texas, and started a crv for him
which was taken up on the iloor and
soon spread until the delegates were all
on chaijs and in the aisles crying the dis
tinguished Texan's name. Mr. Johnson,
of Ohio, got on a chair and
caught the
the chairman's eye. He was recognized
to move that the Hon. Roger Q. Mills be
invited to address the convention. The
motiou was carried with enthusiasm.
Palmer Speaks.
The committee was slow in finding
Mr. Mills, who had fled from the hall.
During the intei mission, an Alabama
delegate got the floor to offer a resolu
tion, which was referred. Then there
were cries for Carlisle and then for Pal
mer. Mr. DeYoung, of Michigan, got
on his chair and moved that Mr. Palmer
be invited to address the convention.
This committee was more successful than
the other, and Mr. Palmer was brought
before the convention in a few minutes
louder, but there are too many democrats
here for any one man to talk to. I am
afraid that this audience, having no
other amusement, wishes, as the chair
man insinuates, "to rout out all the
democratic menagerie," and proceeded
with his address.
A Iteeess Taken.
There were several cries for favorites
to speak, but. those that were in the hall
were coy and would not respond. At
this juncture Don. M. Dickinson, sitting
just across the aisle from Mr. Fellows,
moved that the convention ta!te s recess
to 5 o'clock. There were cries of "no"
from the galleries ami when the chair
man put the motion the galleries voted
"no" with great vigor. But the chair
man declared the motion carried and at
2:43 the convention took a recess until
o'clock.
Convention Gossip.
Chicago, June 22. Comptroller Frank
Campbell, of New York State, offered to
bet Senator Norton unase, ot the L-leve
land .faction, to-night $250 to 150 that
Cleveland would not be nominated.
Mr. Chase would not take the bet and
Mr. Campbell offered to bet him $100 to
man announced to the impatient conven
tion that the platform was ready and
would be presented by Jones, the chair
man of the committee. Mr. Jones from !
the platform: I am instructed by the
committee on resolutions to present tJ
you as the report of the committee the
following resolutions and to ask their
adoption, and as soon as they are read I
shall move the previous question upon
the adoption of the platform.
This announcent was received with
loud cries of "no" from the
left of the chair where the delegates
from the silver States were grouped. Mr.
Neal, of Ohio, jumped to the platform
and said with warmth, "in view of that
statement I, expressing the minority of
the committee on resolutions, desire to
announce that the minority desires to be
heard (cheers) aud to prevent its report
before the previous question shall be
put." Mr. Jones closed by asking Mr.
Vilas, of Wisconsin, to read the plat
form. Mr. Vilas began to do so in his
magnificent, sonorious voice and most
impressive style.
Chicago Kent With Applause.
The first mention of Cleveland's name
in the convention was when Mr. Vilas,
in the first paragraph of the platform,
read "from Madison to Cleveland." It
called out the pent enthusiasm of the
delegates. The Syracuse men led the
cheering as the Cleveland delegates and
the Cleveland men in the galleries sprang
to their feet, waving hats, handkerchiefs
ind fans. The noise grew aud grew un
til a Michigan democrat rushed into the
hall holding aloft the white aud gold
banner of his State with a picture
)f Cleveland pinned across its
face. Don. M. Dickinson climbed on
i chair and all the Michigauders
followed him while delegates and spec
tators shrieked and veiled. Then down
the aisle came Iowa's banner bearer,
holding aloft the picture of Boies. The
cheering was renewed. It rose and fell
in quivering, ear splitting yells. Don
Dickinson got down from his chair and
took the Michigan banner in his hands.
Climbing back on his chair he raised it
aloft, and the cheering swelled again.
Michigan rallied around the banner.
Two or three delegates took it from
Dickinson's hands aud swung it defiant
ly in the face of New York's 72. As it
passed one delgation after another, led
the storms in cheers in its honor.
When the silver plank was reached
there was a stronger outbreak of ap
plause than at any point of the platform.
The familiar phrase, "Public office is a
public trust," which toiioweu was
promptly recognized and brought out
another but very brief Cleveland demon
stration. The civil service plank called
out more hisses than cheers. The galle
ries applauded the condemnation of the
republican office-holders convention. Not
counting interruption, tnc piatiorm oc
cupied thirty-five minutes in the reading.
Mr. Jones, at the close ot tne reading.
said: "On behalf of the committee on
resolutions, I move the adoption of the
platform as read." This was met by cries
of "no.'l Mr. Neal, of Ohio, took the
xtand and said: "As a representative
from the State of Ohio, appointed on
the committee on resolutions, I gave
notice of my intention to present to this
convention an amendment to the section
of platform relative to the tariff. 1 have
