all times In the interest Of Cleveland ant
as,isted by the confusion, they created th'
dc 'apgement OF other plaas for the noni
nation OF President. Even omnipoten
Tammsny stool Ia awe before this claqu.
and awarded the PLAN .oChicago and It's die
tingufahed Mayor, Carter Harrison. There
never ives genuine hearty convention yel
for any delegate. Whenever any one was
named by bis own s:aie Lis rcaniy contin

I.a,t night the lndlanains aud other dis
affected delegates and Tammany Hall
came to the conclusion tina. they would

this morning in manner that would give
It the air Of spontanie'y and at tho same
time bs 20 general that It would impress
the convention that Cleveland was q mis-
take and the time hsd come to make the
j.c,ed builder Of 1875 the capital Of the
right angle. II vas great lchems bui

Immediately there was q s!ir. The north
ern howl mingled lovingly with the rebe'
yslie. the howl Of The pyairie wolves and
the blest oi the Eastern hawks. The gal
leriel and even the HARRISON contingent
Joined together 10 make confusion worse
conioundsd. Hendricks turned his head
like this distinguished prototype, but Il
was not to the will Of G ID. He had Iulet
otherwise. For nearly twenty minutes thf
waving Of flags, the diuging Of hats, ths
l1t.eripg Of handkerchief filed all the oil
which hsd already too little room In 1t io'
the yels. Hendricks grew pale and trem
bled like an aepen, and to rolieys bis EN-
barrafsment and hide his pallor. Dar
Voorhess started over to his side and tool
him undar bis broad aegis.
