IN manner that indicated that It was a
foregone conclusion.
STRENGTH IN HENDRICKS NAME.
The addition of Hendricks name to the
Democratic ticket was everyw here re-
garded. both among the Republicans as
well as Democrats, as greatly strengthen
ing it. Among the Democrats the an
nOuncement that Hendricks had accepted
the second place on the ticket was
received with great enthusiasm.
and the success of the party in the COM
ing election, while it had been regarded
as almost certain with Cleveland at the
helm, is felt now to be doubly assured.
Congressman Adams said saat il would
receive the support of the entire Demoera-
cy and all the Independent Republicans.
AT the Manhattan Club, the members hear

everywhere among Democrats is one Of
profound satisfaction.

CHICAGO, July 1.-THE outward trains
for the East were heavily loaded this
afternoon. Nearly all the Eastern march
ing organizations have taken their de-
parture. The Americus and Randall
clubs Of Philadelphia paraded the streets
before taking their leave, bearing, in addi-
ton to their club banners, one inscribed
with the name of Cleveland. The Tam
many braves, 600 strong. took a special
train at 5 O'Clock. Some Of the members
took the outcome jocularly, but in the
main the delegation showed bitterness OF
spirits, and some of the members dis
played bits Of Grape in their button holes.
Il think the Democratic party
has committed hari-kariv - said one
OF the Sachems. A number Of
opinions are printed as coming from John
Kelly, but be declared positively that he
has not conyersed with any newspaper
man. and that he has not expressed any
opinion upon the situation, and is not re-
sponslble for any statements coming from
Iammany members who may feel that
they have encountered a personal defeat.
MANNING PREDICTS VICTORY.
Mr.. Manning and the majority OF the
New York delegation are exuberant, but
modest in their speech. Mr.. Manning
says that Cleveland will surely carry
New York.
'tBy what majOrity?''
Il shall not predict majOritles, but we
shall carry New York beyond any doubt.
If the other Democratic States do their
duty, Cleveland will occupy the White
House after next March. The party at
large in the State will give him as earnest
support as it did Tilden. 1 am safe in
promising victory in New York State.1
There were great crowds outside of
Convention Hall to hear the result of the
ballOting, and heavy cheering followed.

NEW YORK, July 11.-George William
Curtis, leader of the Independent Repub-
lican movement, declined to be inter-
viewed in regard to the nomination of
Cleveland. 81 will say this, however,
said Mr.. Curtis, ''that l regard the nomi-
nation as the wisest one the Democratic
party could have made, and believe that
1t will be satisfactory to the independent
voters" He declined to express his views
further.
sCHURZ WILL SUPPORT HIM.
Carl Schurz said: 81 am pleased with
the nomination of Gov. Cleveland, and
shall give him my support. / think he is
the strongest candidate the Democrats
could have nominated, and he will I'M
doubtedlY receive large support outside
OF his own party from Independent
voters"
SURE TO CARRY NEW YORK.
Horace K. Deming, Chairman of the In
dependent Republican Executive Com
mittee, and President of the Young Re-
publican Club of Brooklyn, SAID that he
regarded Cleyelanfs nomination as sig
nal triumph of the better element
of the Democratic party and
tribute to the growing independent
sentiment throughout the country in both
parties. He said that no doubt Cleveland
would be able to carry New York State,
as he would undoubtedly receive the sup
port of the independent voters in the
Republican party, and his popularity
among the younger men was a we'll
established fact. The opposition of Tam
many Hall to Cleveland he did not regard
as ominous to his prospects, but rather
as beneficial to him. Tammany's strength.
he said, was greatly overrated, and it was
by no means the important political factor
that many people supposed. If it was
supposed that Tammany was working
against Cleveland it would give him votes
all over the State. 1t was not probable
that the Independent Republicans would
formally endorse Cleveland, although they
would throw their vote in his favor. A
conference would be held about July %.
probably in this CITY, when definite line
OF policy would be decided upon.
Ethan Allen Doty, also member Of the
Independent Republican Executive Com
mittee, said that the Independents would
support Cleveland, and predicted that he

Several Lives Lost and Ten Buildings
Burned at Bradford. Pa.
PITTsBURG, July 11.--A special from
Bradford, Pa, says: The most disastrous
fire IN the history Of Bradford occurred at
an early hour this morning. BY it four
persons were burned to death and four
others badly injured-two it is believed
fatally-and ten buildings destroyed. The
fire originated in the bakery Of Mrs.
Charles Reibley, and spread SO
rapidly that May and Lizzie
Reibley, aged and years.
respectively, and u Swedish servant girt
were suffocated and burned to a crisp.
Mrs. 8eibley, in her efforts to rescue her
children, was terribly burned, and died
shortly after being taken from the burn
ing building.
Lena Girwitz and Mary Touhey were
asleep when the fire broke out, but made
their escape by jumping from a window.
Both are severely injured, and MISS Tou-
hey, it is thought, viii die.
John H0ldin and Ell. Garwich were also
badly hurt. The latter is the father Of
Mrs. Reibley.
The buildings destroyed were mostly
frame structures occupied as stores. The
loss is $4,000. Charles Reibley, the hus-
band and father OF the Victims, was
drowned two weeks ago.
