CHICAGO, May 3l.-If you want to see hell
come to Chicago. don't mean any disre-
spect to the internal regions, or desire to
have libel suit brought by his Satanic
majesty, but the popularity accepted idea of
the country renders it appropriate to make
the comparison. l throw in the apology to
hedge against hurting any ones feelings
There is q perfect babel of discordant eIe-
ments, but all laboring for one common
purpose-the stealing of another lease of
power and few years more of plunder.
Each gang want it all for their own use, and
in their general scramble, they are likely to
accomplish great good by general throat
eating and turning the
COUNTRY OVER To THE DEMOCRACY.
A street preacher was haranguing an au-
dience near the Palmer House last night,
when he electrified his hearers by saying
"Soue of you have come here to advance
the cause of Grant, others for Blaine or
Sherman, but we came here to aid the cause
of Christi
tipsy Republican on the outskirts of the
crowd took in the remark and shouted:
"Well, you've come to poor place
to start boom for Christi The remark
was so eminentIy appropriate that it took
with the crowd and broke up the meeting.
MADAM RUMoR.
In going about the hotels you can obtain
different conclusion every five
minutes. Rumors, the most absurd,
are flying about by the hundred. This and
that delegation are quoted according to the
whim of the speaker. l have come to the
conclusion that the only thing positive is the
fact that the officehoIders will hold nation
al convention on Wednesday, and do their
best to outreach each other. AS the prayers
of the righteous availeth much, trust they
will be eminently successful.
NATIONAL COMMITTEE MEETING.
The national committee has been in ses
sion all day and is still at it tonight With no
certainty of reaching conclusion. A mem
Der of the committee informs me that the
committee stands 80 to II in favor of abol-
ishing the unit rule and also for deposing
Don Cameron, unless he will pledge himself
to obey the behests of the msjority of the
committee. The anti Grant men claim that
the defeat of the unit rule will be the defeat
of Grant. Per contra, the Grant men profess
that they will gain from the anti Grant dele
cations more than they will lose if it is de-
feated. Whether this claim is buncombe to
parry the force of seeming backset time
alone can determine. On the surface at
least there seems to be massing of the
fragments of all the other candidates against
Grant, each apparently assuming that the de-
feat of the third term will help their particu-
lar boom. The Tribune, which is violently
anti Grant, comedies him majority of two
if the unit rule is enforced, which is a big
concession from that source
ADVERTISING DoDGEs.
The cityis placarded with huge posters,
reading, "The third term Republican de-
feat" One of these posters is attached to
the plaoArd at the Grand Pacific, in the
room of the New Hampshire delegation.
Little dodgers are circulated all about town
calling an anti Grant mass meeting at tn Q
base ball grounds tonight. No speakers
are announced, but.it is designed to be an
antidote for the Grant meeting which is
called for Dearborn park, just across the
street from the base ball grounds. These pa
per ballots probably amuse the men who
issue them, and do no harm.
THE WINDOW BOOM.
In a quiet little corner on the third heor
of the Grand Pacific found the Minnesota
headquarters. This is where the dear little
thing, known in Minnesota as the Window
boom, is being nursed. Bill King, who is on
deck as large as life, says the Window boom
is folded up in nice linen napkin and laid
away where the chilling blasts will never
reach it outside of this third story port
You can't find that such MAJ as
Bill Window exists.
JUDGE CRowELL.
met Judge Crowell tonight, who says its
sort of holiday week in Washington, 80
he thought he would leave long enough to
look at the bear garden in Chicago. The Judge
wisely declined to get upa boom for any one
in particular, but says his State has instructed
for Window and be feels bound to endorse
