GENERAL WADE HAMPTON
was found In his parlor at the st.
Nicholas, where pleasant interview
was held for some minutes. Genera
| Hampton is a pronounced Bayard man,
and would be for Hendricks if he was sure he
could carry the State OF New York. Says Gen.
eral Hampton, "My preference has always
been for Mr.. Hendricks, and think he shoulc
have had the nomination In 1876, and had he
been nominated he would have been
| the President to-day. The people in the
| South all Ike Hendricks. and were they
sure he could carry New York
| they would be for him in this Convention.
Mr.. Bayard can, believe, carry New York.
Mr.. Charles O'Connor has just sent a letter
| to Mr.. Belmont, saying: "Bayard can carry
New York by 50 OCO majority"
az am of the impression that if Mr.. Bayard
| can not be nominated Mr.. Hendricks viii be
their next choice. Yet we are not here to an
tagonize either Mr.. Hendricks or any other
1 candidate. we ara Tor the strongest one, Wilo-
ever that may be-"
General Hampton says he could not think of
accepting the Chairmanshlp of the Convention
While he would appreciate the compliment,
| he thinks that he, as a Sontherner, should not
take an active part in the Convention, and
would decline were II offered, and suggested
| that the Craftsmanship of the Convention be
given some one from the Northern States
| IN IOWA
| Mr.. Hendricks Will have some votes. Edmund
Campbell, Secretary of the Iowa State Central
| Committee, says Mr.. Hendricks will have two
votes from that State the first ballot, and
will no doubt have more thereafter.

of New York, the gentleman who carried the
/ famous letter from the late Vallandigham
| (when the latter gentleman was in Canada) to
| the people of Ohio, says: Hendricks and Pot
ter will be ticket that will and can win."
General John c. Walker. ex-member of Con
| gress from New York, says: Hendricks and
Hoffman will suit u.s. 1t is reported here to-
| night that
GOVERNOR SEYMOUR
has written to a gentleman here, expressing
his desire to have Mr.. Hendricks receive the
nomination.
Little Phil Rhodes, once Tilden's Private
| 1--WE are now satisfied; we have been the
cause OF Mr.. Tilden's withdrawal, and we pro-
| pose to go home and work for the ticket, who
| ever that may be. There are some local differ
| ences in the State which we hope to harmo-
nize, and any good man like Tom Hendricks
| can carry the state of New York by an i'm
mense majority"
| Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts,.
Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire and New
Jersey are apt to vote the way New York will.
Tilden's withdrawal does not seem to have
helped
| THE PAYNE BOOM
| much. The nomination of Payne will not be
ccsptable to the anti-Tilden New Workers..
The nomination Of Payne would bs regarded
much OF Tilden victory, and the anti -Tllden
men do not propose, if possible, to have him
nominated. He will have their support at the
polls if nominated, bu: his nomination they
do not want.
THE FIELD BOOM
| seems to have bursted fiue. Their head
| quarters at the Gibson House are vacant and
look deserted. Arab-like, have "folded their
| tents and stolen silently away" The greatest
| demonstration Mr.. Field has had to-day was
| the enterprise of the newsboys in attempting
TO work of a good stock of Frank L+slie's pa
per containing a picture of the California
Squire. Mr.. Field is not likely to have the
nomination. Judge McCorkle and Duke
Guiwn, Justice Fields friends here do not
seem TO regard his chances as promising as
| they were earlier in the fight.
1t seems that Jewett found his last card
played when his son George had all the show
| windows crowded with the old gentleman s
pictures. Something better than
JEwETT's PICTURE t
must be provided. 1t Is bad picture. and be
side, the old man is "horrid ugly" i.t
Uncle Dick Bishop looks sad and lonely
| siuce Tilden is out OF the race. Bishops
chance for the Vice Presidency has been hung
| on the shelf. But little has been said about
| who shall be the Chairman of the Convention.
SENATOR VOORHEES,
arrived from Washington this evening. Sena-
| tor Voorhees, is TO present the name of Mr..
| Hendricks. There are over 1000 Indianians
| in the city. The Convention will be called to-
| morrow at noon. There is a great rush ior
| tickets and about one man in 100 will be ac-
| commodated. j. +. ID.
