were ordered to report at the convention hall
this morning at o'clock, and nearly all did
SO. Col. Bright made them brief address,
IN which he cautioned them to abstain from
showing any Partially to any candidate, and
from admitting any one without ticket. The
only people, he said, who could enter without
a ticket were telegraph operators, the press
representatives, and the mayor of the city.
Ii any doorkeeper or usher violated these
rules he would be instantly dismissed They
were ordered to report again at 9 O'Clock
Monday morning. The appointees were
then given printed copy of their appoint
ment, after having signed on the back of it
the following pledge: sIn consideration OF
the wages provided for the services to be
rendered l accept the within appointment,
and agree to faithfully and promptly per-
form the duties assigned in accordance with
the orders and regulations established by the
National Democratic committee or its au-
thorized agents."
| Col. Bright will have no lieutenants. He
says ne wants no chief doorkeeper, no chief
usher and no chief page, as he thinks such
subordinates make trouble and are only in
the way.
William T. Villas, of Wisconsin, who ar
rived to-day, is not expressing any opinions,
because he feels that it is not safe-being a
possible vice presidential nominee. He has
expressed himself, however, in favor of Nc
Donald on several occasions.
Outcrbridge, Horsey, and one or two Della
ware statesmen, brought in faint boom for
Thomas F. Bayard. Elk Gov Sterling Nor
ton OF Nebraska, is also for Bayard.
The Louisiana delegates, like pretty much
all the southern delegates, came in without
preference. They also came in with their
clothes and their first inquiry was for a fash
ionable tailor shop. Their linen busters and
straw hats, over garments OF light texture,
lily fitted them to brave the bold chilliness of
the Chicago atmosphere. Delegate Fitzpat-
rick said the Louisiana delegation were unin
structed but would be for Tilden if he would
serve. Ii not Tilden they would take any
good man whom the Democrats regarded as
available. 1t is the men without prefer
ence to whom the friends of the field are di-
recting their attention and so far as con-
vincing them that New York is not for
Cleveland They are making good head
way.

In addition to these the Tammany element
has opened headquarters in the south dining
room. The guardians of the Flower boom
have opened headquarters in the interest of
their favorite in 2SL, and these seem to be
the only headquarters opened on behalf of
any individual candidate, except that the
Samuel j. Randall association, of Philadel-
phia, has opened headquarters at the Com
mercal hotel, and from the window of this
house have swung across the street a large
white sheet bearing the Inscription:
''We honor the man whose name we bear.

| CONVENTION CHIPS.
The jolliest fellow of the California dele
gates to the national convention, and who
| has proved thorn in their side since leav-
ing San Francisco, is Carl Brown, cartoon
artist of the News of that city. He is the
sole delegate to represent the Butler party.
At every place where the train
paused long enough for a speech
regulars, whereupon they would get mad
and attempt to suppress him, but he
stood on his rights as a citizen,
had paid for the use of the car ne
rode in and was coming to Chicago
to nominate "Ben. Butler for president"
He dresses in unique California garb,
topped with a sombrcro of broad
all the delegation put together. He brings
with him fine large oil portrait Of the
Strabismus candidate, which he says he will
at the proper moment present to the con-
Yention in behalf of the Independents of
California.
The Iowa delegation, twenty-six in num-
Der, arrived this morning at the Palmer and
Immediately proceeded to elect Judge s. G..
Kline, of Toledo, their temporary chairman,
postponing their temporary organization
until Monday. Judge Kline, who has been
in the city several days, says his delegation
is unanimously and emphatically for Cleve-
land.
w. II. Barnum, the chairman of the
national committee, arrived this morning
quarters. His room was instantly besieged
by visitors, but he soon Withdrew and en-
tered OIL his business elsewhere.
The Indiana delegation comes in piece
meal. About sixteen have arrived so far,
and appeared at parlor of the Palmer,
their headquarters. They are all strong
! Mcdonald men. 'sThe delegation from our
state" said State Senator Mansas,
one of the few Indianians on the ground,
ssis solid for Mcdonald. There are no diff
ferences among US. 1t will be thirty votes
for Joe Mcdonald until the last ballot is cast
and either our man or some other is elected.

CHICAGO, July 5.-The temper of the city
was completely changed from its quiet to-
night by the arrival of the Pennsylvania,
Massachusetts, Texas, and greater portion
of the New York delegations. The demon
stration organized in behalf of Butler also
tended to lend to the air of excitement
