delegates are nKed on no candidate, ana
say that with them the getting into the
Convention is the desideratum. The
choice OF q Presidential candidate 10 .
secondary matter.
The fOrty.two delegates from the State
will probably 90 10 Morrison on the first
ballot, so SAYS Delegate Walter r. Car
den, and the delegate had the gall to
claim that the illinois vote is not COM
plimentary either. Most Of the dele
gates are friendly TO Seymour, and
would cheerfully have given him their
support had he not withdrawn. The
State will vote as unit.
Ohio
Will undoubtedly be found solid for
Thurman, although Mr.. Payne's friends
claim a portion Of the delegation.
West Virginia.
Thurman, first, last, and all the
time.
This State has ten votes to throw TO
the most available man, 50 says General
q. G.. Rogers, one Of the delegates.
Kansas Democrats feel very friendly to-
wards Hendricks, and nearly every
cabin wall in the State is hung with
picture Of the Indiana statesman. They
would like to vote for him. They are
not bound to observe unit rule.
Wisconsin.
Wisconsin has nineteen votes against
Tilden and one for him. These nine
teen would like to vote for Seymour.
After Seymour they are divided. Field
has i've or six friends in the delegation,
and Hancock has little contingent
strength.
Kentucky.
Cassius NJ Clay said last night that
had not Tilden withdrawn he would
have received most 0i the Kentucky
strength. Now the vote Was scattered.
Another delegate claimed that Bsyard
had strength in Kentucky, but he could
not name what strength. Hon. g. NJ,
lIarwoOd, delegate, is Tor Field.
Maryland
Will cas-, her sixteen votes for Bayard,
aud OF course, little Delaware will be as
faithful with her six votes.
Indiana
Will remain with Tom Hendricks till
the last ballot is taken, 81 say all the
delegates They've no second choice,
aud they consider no other man in
America 80 available.
Missouri,
One way OF getting over the descrip-
ton of the situation IN the Missouri del
egation, and one that would be about as
tntelligible asrhe conclusions arrived at
after talk with the members, would
he to say, "muchly mixed" A canvass
oi the field made Immediately upon
the arrival oi the delegates,
gave Mr.. Tilden some six or eight OF
the thirty votes Ia he cast A number
OF Morrison men were found, and Sey.
mour, too, seemed to have his share of
admirers. Later, when Ti!den and Sey-
mour were both declared out oi the
field, the body became like an army
without commander, and the ques.
ton oi the hour was, "Who shall We
vote for?" Mcdonald, OF Indiana, was
trotted out rs favorite dark horse,
while Bayard, too, seemed 10 have
number oi admirers, who were more
than half inclined to lean toward the
Delaware statesman.
The first ballot will doubtless he scat
tered between Bayard 90, Hendricks,
Morrison CO. Payne, Field, Thurman
and others. The impression seemed to
he forming that II the New York delega'
ton attempted to coerce the nomlna.
ton Of an objectionable candidate that
Western man would have 10 be taken.

The Pennsylvania delegation was
closely canvassed yesterday evening
aud found To he divided AZ follows {:
Randall, 20; Hancock, 10; Bayard, .;
Payne, .; and Field, |.

To- speak, aud on the first ballot will cast
