PHILADELPHIA, May 25.-The great success oi INC
Independent Republican Convention OF yesterday
is the one tonic of conversation here to-day. There
is no longer any talk on the part OF 'ho o'u"'i''
of ignoring the movement. Senator Cameron
Governor Howl. r. V. Cooper, chairman OF the
Stalwart Republican State COMMITTEES, and other
leaders on that side of the house were
in the city to-day They did not confess amp solcl
tude for their ticket, but it is well understood tnaI
already they are seriously discussing the desraDiiIy
of calling another regular convention for the oslen
siblc purpose OF filling the vacancy on their ueke'
caused by the resignation of Thomas NJ. MARSHALL
Chairman Cooper III reply to inquiries on Tie SUD
ject said that yet he could no good reason lo
calling a convention. as the State Committee had
precedent for filing the vacancy, yet he eouiu ho'
say definitely what would be done.
There is some talk of the Stalwarts placing
Colonel McMchael, the Independent nominee 1or
Congre Ssman- at Large, upon their ticket. lie mas
many friends among the Stalwarts and Is acAho"l-
edged to be a strong candidate still il he were to
accept a nomination OH the regular ticket also IL
would be Necessary 10 make it clear that there was
no bargain about it, else the Independents would
repudiate him, strong is their antagonism to cam
ron. Colonel McMichacl however, is too high
minded to enter into any bargains with the machine
after accepting nomination on the Independent
ticket.
There is a general belief here now that Cameron
and Quay are already at work TO devise some way
of efecting compromise by calling new conven-
ton. The Independents assert that II Is too late
now for such movement. hey waited long

are going ahead. Senator Mitchell before returning
10 Washington this morning said that he would
make the prediction that the ticket nominated
Yesterday will have more votes than the Harris
burg ticket Referring to the report that he would
take no part in the campaign; he said it was mis-
take. He would make all the speeches he could
without neglecting his official duties and his
health.
James McManes, the Stalwart "boss," said to-
day ;" Ii is n ticket that will raise a row III the
coming campaign" Ex-Attomey- General Lear,
president of the Harrisburg Convention, praised the
ticket and HE convention and said il would lead
TO changes on the Harrisburg ticket and an effort
to reconcile the two elements. If tins Is not &C
complished he thought the Democratic ticket
would be elected without doubt. Mr.. Wolfe is
predicting that the Garfield ticket" will lead
the regular ticket when the votes are counted III
November. There is much satisfaction expressed
among the members of the Philadelphia bar with
the choice of Mr. Junkin for supreme Judge. hi.
Rawle is reported as saying that he would he only
too glad to retire from tho regular ticket and allow
Mr. Junkin's name to be placed upon 1T. 1t is not
improbable that this may be done and the Demo-
Gratis prevented from capturing that Office for
Judge Ludlow, which they now regard as certain.
The independent finance committee CONSISTS OF
Charles hecler, Henry T.. Lea and William ATrOtt.
of Philadelphia; Thomas W. Phillips, OF Lawrence
County; Wharton Barker, of Montgomery County;
and William Clarke of Allegheny, with power
TO increase their number. i. ID. Mckee Will be con-
timed as chairman of the State Committee, ana L.
w Leach as secretary. The committee consists OF
nnety-One members.
Great interest now attaches to the Democratic
Conventions which III sets III harrisburg on June %.
If a good ticket is placed i'll nomination II may be
elected There is prospect that the Bourbons Will
control the convention and with their usual want OF
sagacty nominate some person Governor that VIII
compel all d. progressive Democrats mo either voting
the Republican ticket or remaining at home. EX-
leading candidate now. lie has 80 Tar over fifty
delegates instructed for him out of the 2J1, but
