New York, IL Worlds Omaha ::
-Four delegates from alifornia to the
Cincinnati convention-McElral Foley.
Frost and Maddox-passed through this
city, to-day, on their way TO Washing
ton. They will be Joined at Chicago by
Delegate Stevens tomorrow. Two other
members Of the California delegation,
CARR and Metcslfe, are already east; the
other five, HeRdricks, Thompson, Steven !
son, Castle, and Woodwork, will fol- |
low tomorrow. The members of the |
delegation who were here to-day are &C
companied by ex-senator Gwin, of Cali
fornia, General John +. Ward, OF New
York, and Delegate Stonehill, of Ne
yAda. Your correspondent was informed
that CALIFORNIA; delegation has no IN
structions. A vote taken by the state
to indicate its preferences
gave Thurman plurality. Tilden and
Seymour also received votes, but the
Field men, who were in the majority in
The convention, declined 10 take part
in the vote. In reply to questions
as to the strength of the various
in California, the delegates
'aid that Bsyard WAS highly esteemed
hat Field was very strong, but Hancock,
was not spoken Of that Iilden was not
available, and that Jewett had
10 strength so fsr as they knew. The
California delegation stands 9 for Field
md uncommitted. Californians say
Ilso that the Oregon delegation is to
for Field, and that Nevada is uncom-
nitted and uninstructed, but will proba-
)ly act with California and Oregon.
They think that the Chicago nominal
ions will be very weak IN California, and
hat Californians will be dissatisfied with
he Chinese plank in the republican
platform, regarding it as an evasion of
he question and an Insult to California,
which will destroy all hope of carrying I
he Pacific states for the republicans.
In connection with the interest excited
ere by the arrival on their way cast I
yard of the California delegates TO Gin
innati, have the information directly
rom member of the democratic national /
ommittee that Mr.. Tilden has no inten- a
ion, whatever, of becoming a candidate 4
