JUMPING FRoM THE SECOND sToRY.
TAMNANY AND THE TICKET.

Mr.. Kelly Says, "Of Course We win
support Gov. CIeveIand"-so win
Butler.
Kelly and his district bosses, says a
Chicago special of the 11th to the New
York Wold, feel disappointed and dis
heartened. When the balloting showed
that Cleveland was gaining in nearly
every State, Mr.. Kelly's face did not have
a smile on it. He whispered to August
Belmont, on his right, and Grady, on his
left. AS the States began to change
their votes to Cleveland and the
Tammanyites saw that the fight was
ended they remained in their seats and
had nothing to say. Before the result of
the ballot was announced Mr.. Kelly arose
and quietly walked out of the convention.
His lieutenants remained to witness the
final act in the drama. When the Tam
many boys walked out they looked crest
fallen, and several of them were heard to
say to the victorious County Democrats,
await and you will see."
Mr.. Kelly did not wish to talk on the
results of the convention. He said he had
nothing to say.
81 must say" he remarked, Nthat in my
opinion the convention made a mistake.
Of course we will return to New York to
support Gov. Cleveland. When we get
back we can have a calm review of the
action of the convention and ascertain
the feeling Of the people. The nomination
may give rise to grave complications and
we should be ready to straighten them
out. We may have some difficulty. l do
not care to say anything more."
SENATOR GRADY EXTREMELY HoARsE.
Grady was asked by a correspondent
wnen and where he would deliver his first
speech for Gov. Cleveland.
"There you have me-" he replied.
What do you intend to do?1
"Wait till we get to New York and
will tell you"
"YOu will support the ticket?"
"Ah, wait till we get to New York."
Wont Tammany Hall support the
GovernorW
The ex-senator chewed on his cigar and
replied:
''When we get to New York we will see
how the thing stands. don't care to say
anything. l am very hoarse from speak
ing and shouting"
"Will the hoarseness last until after the
election?"
q Will decide that after I get to New
York"
Ex-County Clerk GumbIeton said:
ooh, yes, we will support Cleveland, but
whether he will be elected is another
question:"
"Won't he carry New York?'
"There are a great many of us. who do
not think he will"
w. BOurke Cochran said: sEFammany
Hall made the fight against Cleveland on
principle. We claimed that he could not
carry the great State of New York. That
State VIII be the battle ground, and
we thought that with Cleveland
as the nominee the party would be
heavily handicapped. Cleveland has
been nominated against our protest.
Tammany will support him; that is
my impression. We have not said that
we would not. The old wigwam always
announces a bolt before hand. When we
get back to New York we will have
meeting of the Committee on Organiza.
and discuss the action of to-day's conyen-

bTLER TO SUPPORT THE TICKET.
''Will Gov. Butler be the anti-monopoly
and labor candidate for President?v
''Oh, think Gov. Butler will support
Coy. Cleveland. In fact, have no doubt
of it."
Ex-Mayor Prince, of Boston. said:
Massachusetts Democrats are good
Democrats. We always give a hearty
support to the ticket. Cleveland will
make great inroads into the Republican
ranks. | think that be will carry the
State. Anyhow, there is a good chance
for it. The Democrats will vote for him
solid, and if he polls the votes of the in
dependents, he will carry the State"
John A. Mclean, in speaking of the
Ohio campaign, said that Cleveland would
certainly carry that State. ''His nomina-
tion,v he remarked, "will remove all fac
tious feeling. 1t will unite the various
elements of the party. They will act
together tremendously. The Germans
will give Cleveland nearly a unanimous
support. There are thousands and thou
sands of Germans in the West who are
drifting in the Democratic party. Cleve-
land against Blaine will bring the Ger
