THE REPUBLICAN RING MASTERS ON THE
GROUND.

Of Nebraska 10 b Permanent and fsmpOr-
sry Ohairmsn-Nsw York Is
Not Unit

CHICAGO, June IL. 2.-To-night the three
thousand electric lights in the great hall OF
of the Republican National Convention
were turned on for the first time. The
scene presented was truly magnificent.
The showing mp of the initial proceedings
of the convention itself was accom-
plished in different way. 1t
was largely brought about by the
arrival Of leading members of the Repub-
hcan National Committee, quite number
of whom are in the city tonight. General
Powell Clayton, of Arkansas; John O. New,
of Indiana, and Cyrus Leland, Jr of
Kansas, are the latest arrivals. Others
present are Clarkson, of Iowa, and Conger,
of Ohio. The point made clear is the
probable selections for presiding officers
Of the convention. Who would
be chosen for Temporary chairman and
who for permanent has up to this evening
been the deepest sort Of mystery. 1t Is
now pretty certain apparently that one OF
the officers will be Senator Warner Miller,
of New York; the other John NJ. Thurston,
who heads the delegation from Nebraska.
Should Miller be chosen for the temporary
craftsmanship. Thurston will be made
the permanent president and vice versa.
There is some mention of Senator Hoar, OF
Mass for one Of the two places, but the
talk of him appears to lack defuiteness.
10 previous conventions the South has
been given q representative, but such will
hardly be the case in this instance.
