the following pledge: ''In consideration of
the wages provided for the services to be
rendered accept the within appointment,

Col. Bright will have no lieutenants. He
says he wants no chief doorkeeper, no chief
usher and no chief page, as he thinks such
subordinates make trouble and are only in
the way.
William T. Villas, of Wisconsin, who ar
rived to-day, is not expressing any opinions,
because he feels that it is not safe-being
possible vice presidential nominee. He has
expressed himself, however, in favor of Nc
Donald on several occasions.
Outerbridge, Horsey, aud one or two Della
ware statesmen, brought in faint boom for
Thomas F. Bayard. Elk Gov. Sterling Nor
ton, of Nebraska, is also for Bayard.
The Louisiana delegates, like pretty much
all the southern delegates, came in without
preference. They also came in with their
clothes. and their first inquiry was for fash
ionable tailor shop. Their linen busters and
straw hats, over garments of light texture,
lily fitted them to brave the bold chilliness of
the Chicago atmosphere. Delegate Fitzpat-
rick said the Louisiana delegation were unin-
structed but would be for Tilden if he would
serve. If not Tilden they would take any
good man whom the Democrats regarded as
available. 1t is the men without prefer
ence to whom the friends of the field are di-
recting their attention and so far as con-
vincing them that New York is not for
Cleveland. They are making good head
way.

In addition to these the Tammany element
has opened headquarters in the south dining
room. The guardians Of the Flower boom
have opened headquarters in the interest of
their favorite In 2S19, and these seem to be
the only headquarters opened on behalf of
any individual candidate, except that the
Samuel j. Randall association, of Philadel-
phia, has opened headquarters at the Com
mercial hotel, and from the window of this
house have swung across the street a large
white sheet bearing the inscription:

CONVENTION CHIPS.
The jolliest fellow Of the California dele
gates to the national convention, and who
has proved thorn in their side since leav-
artist of the News of that city. He is the
sole delegate to represent the Butler party
ct every place where the train
paused long enough for a speech
he would sandwich himself in with the
regulars, whereupon they would get mad
and attempt to suppress him, but he
stood on his rights as citizen,
had paid for the use of the car he
rode in and was coming to Chicago
to nominate ''Ben. Butler for president"
He dresses in unique California garb,
topped with sombrero of broad
dimensions and makes more friends than
all the delegation put together. He brings
with him a fine large oil portrait of the
Strabismus candidate, which he says he will
at the proper moment present to the con-
Vention in behalf of the independents of
California.

Der, arrived this morning at the Palmer and

in the city several days says his delegation
is unanimously and emphatically for Cleve-
land.
w H. Barnum, the chairman of the
national committee, arrived this morning
and took paror of the Palmer as his head
quarters. His room was instantly besieged
by visitors, but he soon withdrew and en-
tered OIL his business elsewhere.
The Indiana delegation comes in piece
meal. About sixteen have arrived so far,
and appeared at parlor U of the Palmer,
their headquarters. They are all strong
Mcdonald men. ''The delegation from our
state" said State Senator Mansas,
one of the few Tndianians on the ground,
sis solid for Mcdonald. There are no diff
ferences among us. 1t will be thirty votes
for Joe Mcdonald until the last ballot is cast
and either our man or some other is elected
Western Associated Press
CHICAGO, July 5.-The temper of the city
was completely changed from its quiet to-
night by the arrival of the Pennsylvania,
Massachusetts,, Texas, and greater portion
of the New York delegations. The demon
stration organized in behalf of Butler also
tended to lend to the air of excitement
which prevailed throughout the city, but was
especially felt in and about the leading ho-
tells. As compared with the Republican
convention there is a greater display on
every hand in point of bunting and in the
number of uniformed marching
bodies Very many of the state delegates
and nearly all of the marching clubs are ac-
companied by bands of music, whose mar
tal notes tend greatly to enliven the situa-
ton. Only the vanguard of these indepen-
