that would be satisfactory to him end
yet not weaken the party at the polls in
the doubtful states, was strong enough
to force some concessions from the ex-

time the latter had votes enough to COM

As Grover Cleveland has been again
nominated by the democrats as a candi-
date for the presidency q sketch Of his
career may not be nninscsssting. He
was born in Essex county, New Jersey,
and was fifty-one years old last March.
He studied law in Buffalo and wes ad-
mitted to practice in 1859. In 1868 he
was appointed district attorney for the
county Of Erie, New York, which event
marked his first entrance into political
life. In 1869 he was elected sheriff OF
the same couEty, having previously been
defeated for the district attorneyship by
the republican candidate, Lyman K.
Bass. In 1881 he was elected mayor of
Buffalo on combination democratic
and reform ticket. When q successor
was to be elected to Gov. A. 3. Cornell
the democrats nominated Grover Oleye-
| land. Owing 10 an implacAbis and fatal

state OF New York, he was elected over

Presidential Figures,

Washington, June 6.-Conslderable

friends of the different presidential cam
didases. It will require All votes to

convention. OF this number the friends
OF Senator Sherman say that they al
ready have $40. leaving but II to get out
OF the other delegates. With this much
OF start the boom for the Buckeye cam
didate would become srrssistible. AS TO
the strength OF other candidates the
Sherman men have nothing to ssy. They
give no figures for any candidate bat
their own. The Gresham people give
out . totslly different lot Of statistics.

A Compromise Probable.

Washington, June 6.-There is be-
lief entertained by many men OF national
prominence in the republican party and
now in Washington, that before the
Chicago convention meets compromise
will be reached whereby number of
the candidates will retire from the field.
There is to be no wrangling and no
harsh feelings in the convention, say
the managers Of candidates IN Wash
lngton, and whoever is nominated is to
be the unanimous choice OF the dele
gates.
" car bs truthfnlly said that Senator
Sherman is not as anxious for the nomi--
nation this time as he was four years
ago.. He is not exerting himself for his
advancement, and / have it from men
who have just consulted with him that
he Is ready at any time to Withdraw
when man who will meet the general
endorsement OF the party ia suggested.
The friends of Judge Gresham are most
obstinate and are doing their utmost to
force the preferment of.their choice. They
have steadfastly refused to entertain any
proposition which does not include Judge
Gresham for the frat or second place,
and whatever there may be done in the
way OF consultation upon any man for
first or second place on the ticket, it lie
likely that Judge Gresham will be left
out. The Gresham men have been &c
| antagonistic in ali there campaigns. to
all appearances, that they will likely be
left with the field against them. A re.
| publican senator who sdmonished me
against the use of his name, said this
| afternoon:
There will not be more than three
men before the convention after the first
ballot. and do not except to see over
four names balloted for at the beginning
II may be that there will not be over two
men iE the field after the third or fourth
ballot. / think the people at large art
mistaken when they expect deadlock
and q tirssome series of helloting, and
lot of speeches and pleadings. I thinl
the thing will be pretty we'll settled /
day or two before the convention meeta
and after there are complimentary votel
the conclusion will be arrived at, every.
body will be pleased, and the convention
will adjourn. There will be NO hsrt

This result Of this congressional and

25 ,699, and in November OF the same
year the republican vote for Blaine was
