MR., sEYMoUR's FORMAL ASSENT
Kansas City, June ia special to the
Times from New York says The Herald to-
day sums up the Democratic situation:
First--li Governor Seymour can be per,
suaded to accept the nomination there will
probably be no opposition to him in the
convention. 1t is believed that he will con.
sent and that his formal assent has by this
time been given. 1t has become known this
evening that Senator Herman went to Utica
on Saturday for final consultation with Mr..
Seymour, and that he is expected to return
tomorrow with the ex-Governor's decision,
In that case the West will claim the vice
president, and Thurman and Paine, of Ohio,
/ Hendricks and Mcdonald of Indiana, Nor.
/ rison, Palmer and Judge Davis, of Illinois,
are spoken of tor this place.
I Second--If Governor Seymour declines
the Western states will try to nominate one
of their second men, but this will DO resisted
/ by the Eastern states and many Southern
men, who think the party cannot get on with
out an Eastern man
AT THE HEAD of THE TICKET.
Bayard, Randolph, CASTOR, of Massachu
sets, and Carkson N. Potter are spoken o.
among the Eastern men.
Third Mr. Tilden is not 10 the race. Tpi,
has been confdentially, but definitely, mad
known by his friends to prominent Demo
Gratis here.
Fourth-There are numerous dark horses
some of whom ought TO be classed AS ponies
such rs Randall, Ingersoll, of Connecticut
Barnum, of tho same state, and half regi
ment Of Western men, pretty much all o
whom would I No the second pac, thank
fully, If they cannot get the first.
Fifth--Judge Field has some Western sup
porters on the ground that his opinions q
judge would help the ticket in the Pacifi
valleys and would secure the favor of corpo
rations, but there is an aversion to taking
candidate from the supreme bench.
Sixth-If Governor Seymour heads tn
ticket flrst-clsss man win BIO selected fo
the second place, and it may even be a
Eastern man. 1t is held that no Democra
however eminent, need or ought to hesitat
: to 90 second on the ticket with GovernC
Seymour.
Seventh-General Hancock
IS NOT MUCH SPOKEN OF.
The list of prominent candidates is reall
narrowed down to Seymour, Bayard an
Field.
Eighth--The convention assemblies O
Tuesday, but the impression is that ballotin
will not begin before Thursday.
: Ninth--Both the New York delegation
will be admitted and given half vote eac
: find the Democratic situation here to.ds
somewhat mudded The newspapers
: this city are attempting to color and shade
q the Democratic nomination to suit then
: selves. Their information is obtained on Il
: surface and Is superficial. My informatic
a is from headquarters. II is the currel
F.. talk at the hotels that both Seymol
g and Tiden are ont of the race, and TIL
FIELD is the coming man. This
o predicted on false idea, and
Q based on the report that Mr.. Seymour wi
n not accept the nomination, q report brougl
+ to this city by DR.. Miller. OF the Omaha He
Y aid, and which have no hesitancy in sayin
is not borne out in terms by anything Ii
: governor has said, either to DR.. Miller {
0 anyone else.
i KNOW WHEREOF SPEAK,
and | positively assert that in four int
views with Governor Seymour, when pinne
down to the point, he has never once said /
would not accept the nomination. My cor
viction always has been, as it is now, that b
e will accept the nomination and it is the un
: versal opinion Of Democrats throughout th
: section that the Times ticket--Seymour an
, Hendricks--is the one with which the ID,
: mocracy can win.
THE COMING CONVENTION AT CINCINNATI
i. Cincinnati, June l8.-Local preparation
> for the national Democratic convention ar
!. going rapidly forward, but up to the presen
> time very few outside politician have arrived
Judging from information received at hotel
: the attendance during the convention wee
will be very large. The two Democrat
factions in New York, Tammany and anti
! Tsmmany, will alone send enough represent
atives to iii the largest hotel in the city
. There will also be large excursions from
Western New York, Washington, Northern
Ohio, and from many other quarters.
Some of the prominent Democrats estimate
that the attendance outside Of the delegate
will be larger than at Chicago. If tina
should prove true, there will be seriou
trouble in procuring shelter for the crowds
, A round of the hotels tonight showed tina
every available room is engaged. Billiart
rooms and barber shops connecting with the
hotels have even been rented at high price,
to delegations and friends Of candidates
Music hall Ia beinp nut in readiness for the
