The questions before the convention now stand
as follows
Howard of Tenn, made an original motion
directing the Sergeant-st Arms to admit TO the
convention all delegates accredited TO the Charles
ton convention.
Church, of n Y, moved to amend, by refer
ring all claims for admission to the convention to
the Committee on Credentials, and to request
them to report as soon as practicable the names
of the persons entitled to admission, with the
proviso that all delegates accepting seats in the
convention are bound, in honor and good faith,
to abide by. the action Of the convention and
support its nominee.
GilmOre of Pa, moved 70 amend the amend
ment by resolving that the delegations from Ar
kansas Mississippi, Florida and Texas, be at once
admitted to the convention, and that the contest
tested seats of other seeding States be referred
to a Committee on Credentials, to be selected by
each State.

amendment, and the call has been recorded
The motion at the meeting of the convention
tomorrow will be-Shall the previous question
be now putt The probability now is that the
previous question viii be ordered, and that Gil
mOre's amendment will be voted down; that
division will be called on the amendment of
Church's and that the first part of 1t viii be
adopted without proviso respecting pledge
It looks now as though the vote of New York
would decide in favor of the admission of the
Southern delegation generally, where there is no
contest and if both delegations, where contest
exists.

mination Of the convention, as New York evil !

likely to favor some sort Of a acOmprornise.
There is public speaking in Monument Square
tonight.
Every effort will be made to effect compro-
