THE COMING NATIONAL CONVENTION.
WASHINGTON, June 2Gth.-If Congress adjourn.
on the 9TH of July, as now seems probable, there
| will be Il much larger attendance of Democratic
representatives at the Chicago Convention thar
| usual. 1t does not seem possible now that there
| will be any extreme auti-taTitf declaration il
the Democratic platform. Many Democrats
! who heartily supported the Morrison bill, admi
| that nothing is to be gained by renewing tn,
fight over it, and both factions are agreed
! that a positive declaration i'll favor of tariff
| revision and reduction will be sui
ficient annunciation of the principles of the
party. 1t is expected that the entire
discussion of the tariff will be restricted to tn,
Committee on Resolutions, and as that commit
tee will sit with closed doors, it is not likely
that any public fight will be made upon the diff
| ferenCes that may arse, New YORK lodged the
tariff question ut Saratoga, the Ohio and New
| jersey Democrats adopted what is known rs the
| Ohio plank " in their platform, and the In
| diana Democrats adopted II platform which
| both the revenue reform and protection Demo
| Gratis can support The majority of the delegate!
| from New York and Indiana and all of thOs(
| from New Jersey and Ohio, will be opposed L
any eXtravagant anti-tarif declaration, and Il;
the votes of two of these states are essential Il

| form, as they may dictate the candidate.
BAYARD'S CANDIDACY.
| WASHINGTON. June 26th.-The star tO-ngh
says: In private letter to Il prominent Demo
cratic Congressman John Kelly declares tina
| he is earnestly for Bayard, because he regard
him as the strongest man the Democrats car
nominate. Bayard has been assured by intiu
entail members of the New York delegation t,
Chicago, that he has a large support in tina
State and il is predicted that i'll the event o
Cleveland being dropped, Bayard will be takeI
up rs the choice of the Empire State. An init
mate friend of the Delaware senator said to-da!
that BaVard had received hundreds of letter
from prominent Germans Of the country proticr
ing their support He has on every occasion
opposed sumptuary legislation, and ii is claimed
that this would bring him many German vote

BUrIER AND TIE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION.
NEW YORK. June 26th.-Democratcc circles ar,
| very much aroused over Il supposed Presidential
conference that occurred yesterday afternoon il
the private office OF General Roger A. Pryor
| When General Il. +. Butler arrived at that oiic,
| he found three wcll-knOwn Tammany leader
present, and he had scarcely finished his greet
ing when John Kelly walked in. The Office
door was quickly closed and securely bOltcd
and when General Pryor attempted to enter
haitian hour later, a whispered word from the doc
sent him away smiling. just what was said Of
done Mt the alleged conference none but thc
| gentlemen present know, and they persist IN re
| uSing to say word.
At the Fifth Avenue Hotel this evening Gen
eral Butler was asked il he had held IA confer
cnce with John Kelly, and he answered that h(
tried to have a conference but failed.
| Are you candidate before the coming Dem
ocratic Convention at Chicago General Butte
| was asked
Il said in my letter Of acceptance to tn,
| Autobiography Convention that l felt highly
iattered by the nomination of any respectable
organization that sees fit 10 honor me in tina
| way
THAT includes the Democratic party
Certainly it does, if you class that rs a re
| spectacle organization
| John Kelly positively refused to say a wore
about the alleged conference. II Is understoot
among the Tammany Sachems that Mr.. Kelly
will try to beat Cleveland with Butler, if al
other means fail, and there is Il growing feeling
among Democrats here that Butler really stand
in the front rank of candidates before the Con
| vcntion II is certain that Butler will use hi
influence against Bayard il only to repay the
Delaware Senator for the many studied rebuff
he has received from that gentleman. In the
event of Butler failing to gain the place a
Chicago, il is known that the Massachusetts
| Democrats have pledged him their support fo
