Special dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
COLUMBUS, O., June 19.-The democratic leaders
are arriving in large numbers on every train, and
before the day Of the preliminary organization all
the delegates and prominent politicians in the
party will be on hand. General Durbin Ward,
who. it is claimed, has the largest number OF
delegates, arrived last night and is mixing
freely with the statesmen as they arrive.
MI. Allen w. Thurman, son of Senator Thurman,
is doing great work for Ward, and evidently taking
personal interest In the fight which now prom
ises to be q most stubborn one. Mr.. Thurman
says that Ward will have IA Of the
delegation from this county and that his friend
Is gaining ground every hour.
JUDGE THURMAN WORKING FOR WARD.
Another friend OF Gen. Ward says: "You have
no idea what interest old Judge Thurman is TAX
ing In this tight Heretofore he was hard to ap.
proach, but now he Is doing his level best He
sent for me this morning and said: Il am not able
to get around much. but bring all the Ward dele
gates to my house you want to. and If you find
any waverlng come at any hour, day or night, and
Will be on deck"
"H0ADLY WILL BE NOMINATED"
Charlie Vallandigham says: "Hoadly will be
nominated. or course the Indications now are
found that Hoadly has the organization. Only
his delegation have the staying qualities You
must understand that Gen. Ward is always
stronger outside OF convention than in, and
time"
"You are member of the state committee p
eyes"
"How does the committee stand?"
swell, Thompson is for Hoadly, and 1t Is my
impression the majority of the committee are
also"
THE SECRETARY OF THE STATE EXECUTIVE COM
MTTTRR
says. "Judge Hoadly VIII doubtless get the NOM
ination. Although Ward may at the present time
appear to have the most delegates, Hoadly has q
hatfar mi 1affn hon
date ever went into convention with In Ohio"
ANOTHER POLITICIAN OF CONSIDERABLE PROMI-
NENCE
says: "The secret OF Mr.. Humans entering this
fight for Gen1 Ward can be traced back to the ma
tional democratic convention three years ago, at
which Thurman's friends claim Hoadly was the
cause OF his being defeated for the presidential
nomination.
sWhat Of Judge Geddes?"
HE has, presume about sixty delegates A
majority, 1t Is said, will vote for Ward should
Geddes withdraw; but then, what man has got
now and what he Will have on Thursday is very
different thing"
Archbishop Sands is managing Hoadly's forces,
and he Is too slick to be caught mapping.
