THE COMING CONVENTION.
Several Delegations Already Represented
Ben Butler as the Party's Candidate.

'The delegates are beginning to arrive" said
Chairman Leonard to the Journal representative,
who called upon him last night to obtain infor-
nation concerning the Greenback convention.
Several came in to-day, and many more are ex-
pected o-morrow although the delegations may
not be full until Tuesday evening. Delegates
are already here from California, Iowa, Ohio,
Illinois and New York, although none of the del
egatlons full yet: The balance of the
New York party will be here by special train to-
night. Those from Florida will be here in the
morning. Michigan representatives, including,
Governor Begole, will be here tomorrow"
"Who will be permanent chairman"
Probably General j. B. Weaver"
'And who chairman of the committee on reso-
lutionsl'
1.-THE matter has not been discussed"
From present indications who do you regard
as likely to be nominated for PRESIDENT"
Cant say. One thing can say, though, is
that nearly all the talk about Butler has been
and is beingmade by people outside of the Green

gan and Iowa delegates who have been instruct
ed to vote for him, and you can say on authority
that Butler will not be nominated unless he first
assures the convention that he will accept its
platfrom and make the race as its candidate"

construction machine for running
street Cars by means uf compressed air
The idea has been broached before, bu.
the attempts to put it into mechanism
tailed tor various reasons, and now, it is
said, this will settle all difficulties. BY
the new invention air is used at its low.

so to 100 pounds per quare inch. The
machinery will be made light to lessen
the amount of dead weight carried. Ibe
difficulty OF keeping up constant uui
form pressure within practical limits
seems to be removed by the new inven,
ton. 1t is proposed to erect an air
comprising machine at each end of The

year for ten years, when it is to cease
The money is to be distributed among
The States in proportion to the number
OF persons under ten years Of age in eacl,
who are unable to read and write. 1t
requires that each State shall expend
from its own revenue one-third as much
as il receives. and it limits the money 10
be expended in the support of Normal
Schools to One.tenth OF the amount. 1t
leaves the States free, under these re-
strictions, to expend the money accord
