DEEP MOURNING IN GERMANY.
NEW YORK SOLID FOR DEPEw.

NEW YORK SOLID F0R DEPEw. l Jehn Sherman Looming Up Very Strong = The California Delegates Overdoing the Blaine Business-The Chances of the Candidates SIS They Appear at Present.
 CHICAGO, June 17.-There was Hull to-day among the president makers, but plenty of quiet work was done by the friends of the fayorites. The different delegations are wait ing now to see whether MT. Depew will per init his name to be used.' One report said to be from reliable sources asserts that he will withdraw, consultations with prominent western men having shown him that he has not 8 chance in that section. An other statement also considered reliable says he will do as the New York delegation desires him to do. If MT. Depew's name is not pre- scented the New Workers will split up. Mile Ter of the delegates-at-large is said to be for Sherman, wbile Plstt and Hiscock favor Al- ger and Depew's preference is not known.
 There has been to-day more general recognition of the positive strength of Sena- tor Sherman. MT. Miller claims ten votes in New York for the Ohio man and it is conced- cd that Quay has thirty-five for him in Penn sylvania. This gives Sherman about 125
 
 inlthe South makes his strength formidable one. He has greatly weakened today by the assaults of the Pacific coast men, who have been opposing him. Over all hangs the Blaine movement. Some of the old Blaine men are exhibiting anxiety about the indiscretions of the Cali foruia delegation. They fear that the en- thusiastic coasters will throw Blaine into the \ convention prematurely and spoil all Failure Of such movement might prevent final success and be somewhat humiliating besides Senator Hale, Joe Manley and s. B. Elkins called on the Californians to-day and begged them not to place Blaine's name in nomins- tion. They responded that it was treachery to Blaine to oppose the presentation of his name and declared their intention of going ahead.
 Five New York delegates are for Gresham andi Senator Farwen and other Gresham workers are making an effort to form com bination with leading men in the East. William Walter Phelps has. spent the day at MT. Farwell's country house, and Phelps has great influence with the leaders I in New York. The effort of the l Gresham men is to form combination rnak- l ing Morton or Phelps the candidate for vice l president. On the supposed leaning of New I York toward Alger and Harrison the friends | of these men were in high glee today. They l claim to have made gains in various direc- ! lions.
 The uncertainty which has surrounded ! New York as the leading faction in the | sonaing convention has been dis oelled. Tonight it was announced | hat the delegates from the em- oire State had declared for Chauncey conditions Mir. Dspew would accept the1 aonor of having his name presented. An informal caucus has been held and this re- 'ult has been reached without friction.
