First Ballot:

The District Of Columbia divided one for Grant
and one for Blaine.
Grants vote alone was received with great
applause. 1t was just their estimate.
How the New York Delegation
Voted.
The New York delegation was polled; Conk-
ling refusing to cast the vote as the state con-
Blaine, 81 for Grant, and for Sherman, three
less than Blaine expected.
Result Of the Second Ballot.
on the second ballot the result was changed
but little. Some excitement was caused by the
polling of the Florida and West Virginia dele
cations. by which it appeared that the chair
man had not correctly cast their votes. The
slight Increase In Grants vote was warmly ap-
plauded.
Rapid BaIlOting.
The ballots were taken very rapidly, the
convention keeping perfect order. Up to the
sixth ballot there were no changes Of import
ance, nor any caucussing to change results.
A Hit at COnkling.
When New York was called on the second
and subsequent ballots, Mr.. Conkling announc-
ed 1t solemnly this way: IL am Informed that
2 delegates vote for Sherman, II for Blaine and
81 for Grant" On the sixth ballot when West
Virginia was called, Chairman Campbell, whom
Mr.. Conkling moved the other day to expel
formed that one delegate is for Grant and seven
are for Blaine" The contrast was 80 great and
the hit so palpable, that the convention laughed
heartily; but On the seventh ballot Mr. COnk-
ling did not notice 1t, and voted as solemnly as
usual, but Mr.. Campbell repeated his tilt.
Garfield rs q Dark Horse.
On the eighth ballot, when Grant gained and
Blaine over the seventh, there were shouts be-
tween the part1sans Of Grant and Blaine, which
were taken up by the crowds outside the build.
ing. The effort to make Garfield dark horse
was loudly applauded when Maryland REIN
forced 1t with vote on the ninth ballot.
Two Sensations on the Ninth Ballot
On the ninth ballot Tennessee cast one vote
for Hayes and was loudly applauded, but mostly
BY the galleries Grants loss Of three votes on
this ballot created sensation and for mo-

Mr. COnk1inR's Appeal to Southern
Delegates.
CHICAGO, June latter a Sunday of storm In
weather and politics, the fifth day of the con-
vention opens bright and clear. There does
not seem to be any change In the situation,
although great many efforts have been made
to prepare for contingencies. Senator Conkling
called meeting Of the chairmen Of the south
ern delegations at the Palmer House late last
night, at which the Grant vote in the south was
revised. He made an appeal to them to vote
solidly for Grant from first to last, which was
seconded by Logan and Cameron, but it ap-
peared that there had been so much delay that
some OF the delegations were getting demoral-
ICED.
Talk Among the Delegations.
The Blaine men have canvassed each delega-
ton, and expect to hold their vote at over three
hundred from the start.
The New England men are urging the ticket
OF EdmundS and Washburne.
The Massachusetts delegation have decided
that 90 of them shall never vote for either Grant
or Blaine, and the delegation expect to name
the candidate.
In the Indiana and Wisconsin delegations
there has been some talk of Washourne.
GOV. DennisOn Denies
the Washington kilograms that the Sherman
men have made any trade. He says they will
not decide where they will go till all hope Of
nominating Sherman is lost
President Hayes Not Nominee.
The Chicago Tribune this morning says Pres
ident Hayes has written letter declining to be
a candidate.
Grant or Blaine.
The hate'-Ocedn says that the nominee is
Grant or Blaine, and that there is to be no dark
horse.
The Opening To-day.
The members OF the convention were early on
the floor this morning; the vast galleries were
filled up an hour before the gavel fell.
AS Garfield, Foster, Frye, Hale and Conkling
came down the main aisle to their seats they
were received with rounds upon rounds of ap-
plause.
Everywhere the interest and excitement were
marked on mems faces. The bands played fn-
cessantly in the galleries. but the music was
drowned in the roar OF the convention.
Surface Signs.
A trip through the delegations seemed to In
dcate that the great struggle would end to-
day.
Among the Grant men there was considerable
waver1ng, and several admitted to your CORE
Spondent to-day that they gave him up for the
first time. The surface indications all favored
Blaine, with one Of the dark horses as a nOSsi
p1llty. Thus the current of speculation went
Oh.
The delegates did not even heed the openinp
prayer, but talked and gesticulated, till the
chairman appealed to the convention to MAIN
tain the dignity OF the great occasion for the
hohof OF the American people at home and
abroad.
The CLERK read the rule against the unit rule.
and then the roll call proceeded as follows for

THE SHOOTING OF SERGEANr-AT-ARMs THoMP.


SONS Son AT NEwBURG n. IA telegram froIn
Newburg n. Y, June 5. says: Young Thomp-
son, the victim OF the Highland Falls shooting
affair, passed quiet night, sleeping with the
aid Of opiates, and was better this morning
than it was supposed he would be. There is no
material change In his condition. His physi-
clans do not pronounce decided opinion,
while they say the wound is serious.
Sergeant at-Arms Thompson. the father OF the
wounded youth, arrived this morning. Col.
Huse, principal OF the preparatory school, says
Buck was IN Indecent circumstances. He was
fully prepared to pass the West Point examine
ton: Col Huse says the boys OF the school
treated Buck well, but that Buck went
there with an exaggerated idea Of haZ1ng
practices at West Point, and with the re-
solve to resent any attempts to haze him.
The boys state that they took the first pistol
away from Buck, fearing he would use 1t. They
allege that he said he did not want to do any
thing desperate, but he could do something OF
that nature as well as anybody; that he would
not put up with everything. Reginald Huse,
who witnessed the affair, declares that Thomp-
SOD did not menace Buck at all; that Thomp-
son is a very gentlemanly fellow, and Huse
never heard him use an angry word.
