1t is claimed that grand majority of the
city delegates will favor the nomination O
Mr.. Wilt, while Messrs. McEnery and Penn
will be able to secure but few. 1t is alec
ccntended that Mr.. Wilt will find little
favor with country delegates-not sutfcien
to give him majority. Some city dele
gates are pledged to the last named aspi
rant.
