These delegates are understood-in
accordance with an agreement made to-
day-tO be one-half for Davis, the re-
mainder divided equally between Palm 4
eT and Trumbull. A satisfactory con-
elusiOn had not been reached at a late 4
hour tonight. IN conference between I
the New York and Missouri delegates,
most interested in this question, it IS ru- |
mored that the matter had been COM /
mitted to henry A. Wells, to prepare a (
statement that would reconcile all par
ties. 1t is very evident, however, that /
the grounds are very delicate, and that /
no task committed to the convention is /
fraught with more difficulties.
At a meeting to-day Of Minnesota /
delegates-eleven ia Rnumber-nine were /
for Trumbull and two for Davis.
Though the Southern States have 1
delegations here, they are not repre- 1
sented by so many persons as the West |

NEW. YORK, April 3O.-The Tri-
jtIae says editOTially: ave judge j
rom dispatches that very con- 4
proportion of the free-traders
Who mustered strongly at Cincinnati {
nave resolved to enlist on the free-trade (
blank IN the platform Of the Liberal |
Convention. Should they carry their ]
)Oint we shall have increased respect for I
heir courage, but low estimate I
# their discretion. In such case We I
rustfhey,will use no ambiguous phrases, 2
)ut set forth their exact meaning in (
words that viii not bear two interpre- ;
atiOns, for sooner or later the country I
must and will be divided on the tariff f
question. If the free-traders choose to / 7
lraw a line now, il is their clear right Z
0 do 50. Their policy will probably be J
developed to-day. What the country 5
Orely needs and imperatively demands
5 a reform in the administration of a
he government. This is not to be I
ttained by combinations of worn 4
ut political hacks to secure nOml- f
iatiOn for some candidate for v
resident who4may suit their peculiar :
wants and views. The Tribune has no t
andidate. 1t asks for no particular +
nan, but it does ask the choice Of some I
nan whose name shall symbolic the 3
latiOnal movement for reform. If the i
'ncinnati Convention gives US the :
mere cadidates Of politicians, Il Is not j
My a failure, but farce. The eyes a
( the whole country are to-day in |
incinnati. Tomorrow they may be S
OtheWneIC else, unless OilcllHdtl SclLes b
IS opportunity. We ask from that con- '
entiOn a candidate whose name shall 4
e of itself a platform. f
