 Connecticut is favorable to Tilden, but
 with him out of the way will vote for Eng Ish and then probably go to Payne as second choice. Georgia will cast sixteen for Field and eight for Bayard South Carolina is sol. i'd for Bayard. West Virginia will cast her first vote for Thurman. Texas will give Han- cock eleven and Bayard five Delaware will cast her vote for Bayard. Illinois forty-two votes will be given for Morrison, Indiana's thirty votes for Hancock. Maryland is solid for Bayard. Ohio's first vote is for Thur man and after few ballots will divide be- tween Payne rnd Jewett. Pennsylvania will cast twenty-six for Bayard and divide the re- mainder between Hancock and Ran dall. Tennessee will give majority of it's votes for Bayard, but will probably soon go to Field. Hancock has two votes in this del egation.
 Senator Hill, of Georgia, in conversation with reporter to-day said 'Were I dele gate to the convention would vote for Til den all the time, even against my own broth CT. Tilden having been cheated out of his election, it presents to the country such an issue as never was presented before. The letter of Tilden regard as one of the ablest political documents emanating from any man in the history of the Government The oc- casion for such 8 letter never occurred before from the time of Washington and it is an abler document than Washington ever wrote" Senator Hill will not state his choice now with Tilden withdrawn, but it is thought he is g Bayard man.
 
 full vote of the various delegations on the first ballot, and if no other States take him up the Arkansas vote will go for Bayard on the first ballot Louisiana will vote solid for Hancock. Kansas has leaning toward both Parker and Hancock, but has not arrived at decision On the first ballot Kentucky will be Hendricks seven, Bayard nine, Thurman and Hancock six, and probably remain so until break occurs. A member of this dele gation thinks the ticket will be Seymour and Hendricks.
 The committee on permanent organization met immediately after the adjournment of the convention and decided to recommend ex- Governor J. W. Stevenson, of Kentucky, as permanent chairman of the convention and to continue the other temporary officers They also adopted resolutions admitting the delegates from the Territories and District of Columbia to seats, but not to vote. The committee on resolutions met, but before they could organize woman suffrage delega- tion headed by Susan B. Anthony appeared Without receiving them or giving them an opportunity to present their plea for plank in the platform, the committee abruptly ad- journed from the committee room to the hall, where the committee was called to order by David A. Wells and Henry Watterson was made temporary chairman, after which an ad- journment until p. m. was taken.
 The North Carolina delegation Is divided
 
 ing the favorite. Wisconsin would give her twenty votes to Seymour if he ran. It will split up between Hancock, Field and Bayard The Massachusetts delegation is divided among Hancock, Bayard, Randall, Seymour and Tilden. At the meeting of the New York delegation this afternoon vote was taken to test the sense of the delegation as to presi- dential preference on the first ballot There were thirty eight votes for Payne, eleven for Tilden, eleven for English, six for Bayard, and one each for Hancock and Randall The Payne men are very jubilant, for as the delegation is governed by the unit rule, their candidate will get seventy votes on the first ballot It is claimed by some of the anti -Tilden men that the plan of Tilden is to throw his strength for Payne on the first three or four ballots, and then when the proper time arrives to make a grand break on the rank and file of all other candidates and nominate Tilden with hurrah. The Kansas delegation intend to compliment Thomas Ewing, of Ohio, on the first ballot Minnesota's favorite is Hancock, but the del egation will follow the larger Democratic States. Wisconsin will vote for Seymour if his name is presented, otherwise it will give ten for Morrison, four for Bayard and the rest scattered.
 Charles s. Page, chairman of the Rhode Island delegation, is confident that the old ticket of Tilden and Hendricks will again be uOIQ1udG0O. I1G Sdlu GO au AR6nC O1 the Na- tional Associated Press tonight that last Saturday afternoon he had an inter view with Tilden at the latter's house. Tilden said to him Page): 'sIf the Cincinnati convention sees fit to nom mate me, I am confident of carrying New York. am as sure of it as I am of sitting here on this chair. The people of New York have got enough of John Kelly, and they would support me-" Page says Til den went on to tell of how he had been wronged in '76, the purport of his remarks being about the same his letter. Tilden also said ssMr Page, if the Cincinnati con vention does not nominate me, you vote whichever way New York does" Page does not consider 1ilden's letter to be deelara- ton and thinks it will strengthen him in the convention. Page also stated that particu- lar friend of Hendricks told him that Hen dricks would accept second place, and this is what causes him (Page) to believe that the old ticket will be nominated. The interview Page had with Tilden took place before the letter was published, but the letter must have been written before the interview, for only @ few hours after the confab this document was issued.
 Alabama will give Bayard four and Field six on the first ballot, but if test comes will be solid for BayArd. California will give Field seven, Thurman three, Bayard one and Hendricks one on the first ballot. Oregon VIII give f16lQ IOuT ana 1lfO6n one on the first ballot, and if Tilden is out of the race Field will get the entire delegation. Missis- sippi will give Bayard eight, Hancock four, Field and Tilden one each. The second bal lot will change slightly in favor of Field. The New Jersey men will vote on the first ballot about as follows: Bayard eight, Ran dall three, Randolph four, Jewett and Tilden twelve. The delegation is solid for Parker, but they think it unwise to spring him upon the convention too suddenly Nevada goes solid for Field, six votes Rhode Island is about as undecided on the first ballot as New Jersey. The vote will stand Bayard three, Payne one, Hancock one, Randall one, Tilden one, Mcclellan one. The Kentucky delega- tion has not yet decided whom it will sup port on the first ballot, but Bayard and Field will get the greater part of their vote.
