CANDIDATES FOR THE VICE PRESIDENCY


CINCINNATI, Ohio June 10, 1876
To-day the hotel parlors suddenly blossomed out with
banners signs showing that they occupied
headquarters OF the different State delegations
matters assuming more orderly shape. Large
numbers Of delegates and politicians arrived last night
and this morning the New Workers paradod in the
streets and their band played in the rotunda OF the
Grand Hotel Tho greatest curiosity exists to know
what the Blaine leaders to do The Bristow men,
who extremely anxious to got Blaine out of the
way persuaded themselves yesterday and tried per
Buade the of mankind, that he would probably DO
wthdrawn and they to-day that several delega
tons in which Mr.. Blame was supposed to be very
strong, have broke up and abandoned him So far as
be escertained, however, from such
0, those delegations have arrived, there is
nothing in these tales and Mr.. Baine's
supporters At least to make thorough trial OF
his strength In the Convention colored delegates and
politicians from different parts OF the country MAINLY
Of course from the South, here in large numbers
The Southern colored delegates pretty unanimously
express their Obligations Senator Morton and Their
intention for HIM the first ballot and
tinue faithful to him II he appears TO have chancc
but they do not feel that they ought 10 be stubborn
particularly they do not hope carry their States
for the republican nominee, and therefore their lead
ers, among whom are Mr. Frederick Douglass, is
prominent frankly say that II Mr. Morton nomination
should seem hopeless they would give way
this becomes evident In that there every
believe that they regard Senator Conkng
the man they would most readily and zcaously sup
port
THE CoLoRED DELRGArEa
There has been IN effort impress leading
eolorel with the idea that Mr.. Bristow ought 10
have their support The influence OF the Morton
has been cast in that direction, but the Southern
colorcd men reply that Mr. Brstow could not have
their confidence He from the South and sshe would
Johnsonizc fate, said one, ssand can
stand anything better than that Brstow would ding
back to 1885, and can't like those days again"
This be general fear their part and will
keep them from Bristow in spite Of all efforts.
Nearly all the New York delegates have arrived and
can be confidently SAID that there is substantial
nnanimity for Mr. Conkling among those here. What
ever hesitation thcre may have been among delegates
from the part OF the State, to have dis
appeared consultation here and upon their full view
d the chances iavorng Mr Conklng's nomination.
CURTIS LOOKED FOR.
Mr. Curtis has not yet arrived lie is due on Mon
day. Very few members of tho Pennsylvania delega-
non have yet arrived The full delcsaton is
on Monday evening
oRJRcrioSs CoSK1So.
The Morton and Brisiow journals are raising objec-
they assert opposed in tho Senate Western
in the River and Harbor bill But the Conkling men
nlenco them by denying the charge and calling tho
record II Is SAID here that Mr. Conkllrg has
lured Western interests by opposing The Steamboat
bill. but unlucxily Tor them who bring this charge, the
Conklng reply by pointing that the Steamboat:
bill was iavoraby reported IRON Nr. ConIling.s
mlt;cc yesterday.
scHuRz's PRxFxRRxcEA
There a report here that Mr.. Schurz has declared
70 friends that while hc would prefer the nomination
D Mr. Bristow, he would give hss support to Mr Conk
ling II the st. Louis Convention should adopt soft
money platform or nominate a candidate whom he did
not like.
THE VICE PREsIpExcY.
Numerous candidates for the Vice Presidency are
turning up. The list far includes ex-senator m
say Mr.. McCrary Of Iowa; Senator Acorn, Senator
ingalls,, of Kansas; Governor Hayes Mr. Wheeler, OF
New York, and Governor Morgan, whom It IL
garded certain tho Bristow men prefer for their
ticket
Combines cnAycRs
Senator Oglesby and others say there is the least
doubt that Mr. Conkng's prospects have been bright
enng for the last two days very rapidly. Many who
thought the day before yesterday tha friends greatly
overcstinated his strength convinced that he
has than fair Of tho nomination, and that
this increases constantly and rapidly
the nHisTow
The Bristow men making desperate efforts and,
for men who dislike what they call machine poll
tcs. they have got up very formidable machine Of
their own; but a close scrutiny not show all the
strength they clam, and they themselves evidently
more on the chances OF total defeat and rout
OF Mr. Blaine, with what that might bring them out of
the wreck any present aud positive strength
u their IL Is therefore, misfortune for their
hopes that Blaine yet shows no signs OF the cx.
pe,ted rout There have been reports in the news
papers here and further West, that Mr. Conkings
irencs were usiag unfair and undcrhandod means
agsins. Mr. Blaine, and that Mr. Blaines friends are
doing the toward Mr.. Conkng. there IS the hest
authority for declaring these assertions false Both
Mr. ConElings ard Mr. Balncs friends have conducted
themselves with entire fairness each other, ard
each knows this OF the other
GOVERNOR xoEGAS's ASPIRATIONS
Governor Morgan be fairly in the field for
the Vice Presidency, ana IL Is Understood that uld
serve with either Mr. Bristow OF Mr. washburnc. This
would TO mean that NJ. Morgan does not intend
~ give hearty support to Mr. Conkiing; but some OF
his friends the delegation that he will remain
faithful 20 his chief al least during early baIlotlngs
The New YORK liberals, who arrived here to-day
nnder General John Coehrane, declared at once and
gerry positively, for Mr. Blame, and visit the
Blame headquarters had inspiriting effect there
rhoy say that Blaine has been prosecuted only By
