ST. LOUIS, June 4.-Delegates, alter
mates, political clubs and politicians of
high and low degree are arriving thick
and fast this morning. They all wore
bridges, and nearly all bandanas. The
one word on their lips was Thurman.
Notwithstanding the great excitement
and hustle, there was little cheering, all
hands evidently reserving themselves
for an outburst of enthusiasm later en-
IN the proceedings, when it would prob
ably count for something. The trains
bearing the New York County Democ-
racy and Tammany were late, and
though scheduled only some minutes
behind, were really delayed hours. The
Chicago County Democracy arrived be-
fore them, and so did the Iroquois club,
of the same city. Each had band of
music and all formed in line together,
the Iroquois silk Stockings to the
rear, and the County (Short Hairs in
front. While the bands blew them
selves hOarse, the undulating line of
white and black tall hats of the
Chicagoans quickly passed out of
the depot. A Wisconsin delegation came
next, followed the Hendricks club, from
Lafayette. wearing Gray badges, and
were the first of the arrivals showing
disposition to yell. The Topeka Demo-
. era tic Flambeau club, with tin helmets
and canvas uniforms, arrived about
this moment, and were soon joined by
the Kansas City Democratic club.
The feature of the morning probably

entry. Their band was extra gailv ar
rayed, and the members of the club
wore white high hats and yellow linen
busters, and most of them had about
their necks, or wrapped about their
hats, red bandanas. showing their lean
ing towards their old Roman. One of
these wearers had upon the top of his
hat a
SMALL BUT COMPLETE ROOSTER.
The club was preceded by the gro
tesque-looking Flambeau club in the
march down the street. The Samuel j.
Randall club. of Pittsburg, with yellow
gloves, white hats and blue suits, were
numerous in the depot, though they ar
rived yesterday. They welcomed this
mornings additions to their numbers
that came in from the East. The Texas
delegation got off the train at the east
end of the depot and comparatively
escaped notice.
The crowd of spectators stayed about
the depot sheds until Tammany arrived.
and then the St. Louis Hendricks dele
CATION, wheeling into line, marched
merrily away with Tammany, the mob
of sight-seers trailing at their heels.
The Tammany sachems numbered 700,
and required train all to themselves
made up in two huge sections.
Their cars all bore immense canvas leg
ends, "Tammany Hall. The crowds in
the depot gazed curiOusly at the braves
as they stepped off the cars. Each wore
a red silk badge, on which was printed
in silver the word "Tammany." Ed
ward S. Stokes, Roswell P. Flower and
a few others of the Tammanyites
boarded carriages at the depot and were
driven direct to their hotel The re-
mainder fell in line and were escorted
on foot to the exposition building and
their hotels by the Hendricks associa-
ton. The latter company followed the

was reached, when they took the lead
with their band and led the way. The
crowds that followed from the depot
were augmented as the procession pro-
ceeded, and it was evident that Tam
many was the drawing card. The Hen
dricks association then returned from
its parade with the Tammany men in
time to escort the County Democracy to
the Southern hotel by way of the Expo
sition building. There were 3O5 men in
the delegation of the County Democ-
racy. Their leader, Judge M lurice j.
Power, occupied the bridal chamber in
Car No. 494, which was once the old
Vanderbilt family coach. Senator Muir
ply and the Murphy legion of the First
assembly district were in the sleepers

men presented an exceptionally hand
