CHICAGO, July THE scenes Of activity
about the Palmer House, which is at present
the great national political centre, were re-
newed early this morning. BY 9 clock the
main corridors of the hotel and thorough
fares leading up to it were filed with great
massts of people, which by their very numbers
made the progress of cable cars and car
riages very slow and at times well nigh i'm
possible In the dining rooms and cafes in
the vicinity Of the hotel was an army of men,
hats in hand, waiting their turn for seats at
the breakfast tables In fact, the crush has
now become so great as TO make comfort
matter of only faint possibility, and the
discomfort has been greatly increased by
the fact that the headquarters of the party
have been centralized, instead OF being dl-
vided and scattered as was the case with
the Republican National Convention Still
the crowds to bs accommodated are much
greater than at the first convention, due
largely to the presence Of the great num-
Der of marching organizations, some of
which resemble full marching regi,
ment by their numbers, and while it seemed
probable last night that all had arrived on
the scene of action, this morning witnessed
the arrival of additional hosts of delegates
clubs, parties and individuals came pouring
into the city on the early trains without limit,
and as ther moved directly upQlt the hotels,
those places became as he day wore on, in
accessible 10 everyone except stalwart push
crs. The national Executive Committee
held a session this morning sna arranged
lori the distribution Of tickets and seating
of delegates iand altcrna'es The meeting
of all the various State delegations began
10 o'clock.

Committee, to Mr.. Tilden:
GRAYsToyE, July 5, 1884.
To Hon Wm. II. Barnum, Chicago, III:
have received your telegram informing
me of the disposition to nominate me for
the Presidency and asking, Willy accept
an unanimous nomination from the Conven-
tion," and also 4 telegram from Mr.. Mann

that you (D should answer Barnums tele-
gram as soon as possible" Your inquiry

expressing his view Of the present situation
he has said TO me: The Invisible Powers
have given the Democracy their grand op-
portunity. The Republicans have nominated
Mr.. Blaine, against whose methods there IS
general revolt in the public mind. On
the other hand, the Democrats have pre-
upon him. Speaking of the action of the
New York delegation, Mr.. Mauniag de-
clared that New York would present Gov
ernor Cleyeland's name and would vote as
unit for his nomination. That there
was less opposition to his nomination IN the
delegation as well as in the city OF New
York, than there was in 1876 to Mr. Ill
den. He expressed himself confident Of
Cleyelands nomination and felt assured
that at the election he would receive the
united support of the New York Democracy.
In an interview with Ben Butler tonight ne
saws: Massachusetts, will vote for Bayard on
the first ballot If he fails, will get Bay

CATION.
The Iowa people while in session were
met by request that some gentlemen OF
the New York County Democracy desired
TO address them. A reception committee
was appointed, when the question
was asked if the visitors we're Tam

whereupon a motion was made to adjourn,
and it was carried without dissent. Mary
land viii probably cast seven for Cleveland
and nine for Byaard Oh first ballot. Maine
will cast solid vote for Cleveland, which
is. also true of Vermont both OF which
States will observe
The Unit Rule.
Arkansas had been instructed to vote as a
unit, and to-day balloted frequently without
effect, the delegation being divided between
Bayard, Mcdonald and Cleveland. An at
tempt was made TO mite on Slacum bat
failed. Illinois took a test vote, and stood
forty for Cleveland and two for Mcdonald.
Michigan is divided between Cleveland

q majority. Nebraska stands 3 for Clcve-
land aud / for Bayard- New Hampshire
instructed her Chairman to cast the en-.
tire vote for Cleveland The majority Of
Virginia is announced fer Cleveland.
The receipt Of Tilden's telegram to-
night created very little comment. All
electioneering in the past forty-eight hours
has not contemplated the contingency OF
Tilden, and consequently it made very little
change in the situation.

DAYS Convention.

Completion Of tho Arrangements for To-
DAYS Convention.
CHICAGO, July Work on Convention
Hall is about completed Only few re-
naming touches are to be added. On the
whole the new arrangement promises to be
an improvement, but is not altogether at
tractive The platform has squatty ap-
pearance, and the position Of the alternates
at the east side of the building has dark
and uninviting look. The spot occupied by
the old platform has been reduced to the
level of the main floor and filed with chairs,
but is so low that it is very poor place from
which to see or hear. The decorations can
hardly be distinguished from the Republi-
can Convention, except over the platform.
There the grand feature is an arch forty
feet high and thirty-fve in width, which
is one solid mass OF flags OF various
sizes and hkenesses. Il is SUrmOurted by
a painting of the Goddess of Liberty. On
her left and little below her is a likeness
of Thomas Jefferson Immediately below
ner Is q nheueSS OF beOTSe aSn4uIVOu
Below that is a likeness of Andrew Jackson
on an escuteheon. To her right, in line
with Jefferson, was to have been likeness
of James X. Polk, but the artist made such
q poor attempt at it that it was concluded
to fiji the place with another likeness of
jackson, which was to have adorned the
lower stand provided for speakers, which
proved to be too low to be decorated in
that way. The band stand will be in the
gallery over the platform, and is entirely
concealed by the arch and its flags and
pictures. A great many visitors inspected
The hall to-day, and the general impression
was favorable. The telegraph men are
somewhat dissatisfied, feeling confident
that they have not room enough allotted
them 10 DO their work well in.

ing In concert. Whether Cleveland can
survive the assaults Of all the attacking par
ties is the question. The twothirds rule in
the convention will be against him, but he
has great source of strength in the dispo
sition Of many outside delegates to be gov
erned by the choice of the New York delega-
ton and to give Tammany a kick Should it
be demonstrated to those delegates that
Cleveland can't carry New York, he will Of
course be beaten in the convention, but the
trouble is that somehow great many dele
gates from the West and South have come
here with strong inclination TO support
Cleveland which is hard to overcome Tam
many is odiouS to the average delegate, and
theopinion prevails with many of them that
Tammany sold ont Hancock and is always

be disguised that Tammany is an impor-
