of the day was the struggle in the New
York delegation and the heavy vote
polled in favor of the unit rule, II was
agreed, would force the Tammany, OPP
position to close corners; but notwith-
standing what appeared to be famous
victory Of the Cleveland followers, very
few of the leaders were willing to con-
cede the untrammeled success OF Cleve-
land in balloting, owing to the fierce ma
ture of the struggle and the failure Of a
portion of the delegation to come out
openly for the majority candi-
date, it has been acknowledged
: If the caucus had ended with certainty
that New York would cast her full vote
for Cleveland, sufficient Western and
Southern strength would be at hand TO
Y make his nomination sure. The fact OF
lack of unanimity is being used by the
friends of other candidates in pushing
their claims for recognition. The Cleve-
land managers, however, are in hig.
