An Albany special TO the World SAYS
The Executive chamber has been thronged
all day with visitors. Governor Cleveland
has found II impossible TO attend 10 the
duties OF his office, his entire timo being
taken up by callers who come TO cOngratu-
late him and shake hands with the next
President. They come from all parts OF
the country. The members OF tho State
Committee, who are in Albany, all called
during the morning, and the Executive
chamber had the appearance OF . re-
ceptiOn-room on some important Occa-
sion. There were among the crowd
large number Of ladies with their escorts.
The Governor stood by his desk with a
white boutonnere In the lapel OF his coat,
and had pleasan. word for each one pre-
sented. A large number went away with
out an Introduction, having evidently come
out OF curiosity, while others fingered
around for an hour waiting for an oppor-
tunity TO shake hands. Scores OF the num-
Der were entire strangers to all present. and
were their own introducers. The rush to-
day was the largest that has taken place
since the Chicago Convention.
The letters in this mornings nail were
not quito as numerous as heretofore. They
told the same story OF Republican Access
sions and congratulations. Several OF them
announced the formation OF campaign
clubs and pledged the support OF many
who had Iot heretofore voted the Demo.
cratic ticket. The members OF the Demo.
cratic State Committee generally brought
encouraging news from their locality. c.
C.. B. Walker, OF Corning, stated that the
Democrats in his locality we're all in line
and In earnest for the ticket, which would
also have the support OF number OF Re
publicans In that locality. Vim. NJ. West,
OF Madison, stated that there was strong
feeling for Flower In his county before the
Convention met, but the Democrats there
were now all in line and earnestly sup
porting the ticket. Mr.. b. Kiels, Jr., OF
Syracuse, stated that all fears OF disanec-
ton in that city among the Democrats had
been dispelled, and every indication now
pointed to an increased vote for the Demo-
cratic ticket over that In any past presiden-
tial election. In two or three OF the large
villages OF Onondaga county there was
some disanection, but he believed that ID
would all disappear As the campaign pro-
crossed. Elliott Danforth. who went to
Chicago as Flower delegate, represented
tDat lDeIt was RtDeTal shtlslacllOn win
The outcome Of the Convention among
Democrats OF bis section, and that there
would be an increased vote over that OF
former presidential elections.
One marked feature OF the talk OF all the
committeeman and outsiders present was
the concurrence OF al in the statement that
the young men who will this year cast their
first vote for President are nearly all ar.
raging themselves on the side OF Cleveland.
Instances were given by nearly all the com.
mitteemen to demonstrate that fact in their
sections, and aljo showing that this feature
was not confined to young men brought up
In Democratic families. but was equally as
marked with those connected with Repub-
lican families. The only disaffection to be
found Is In Monroe county, Wayne county,
and New York. The much-talked-of
"kick" in this city could not be found
among those who have been represented as
opposing the ticket; but, on the other
hand. prominent Republican business men
are found actively advocating Mr.. Cleye-
lands election.
