TO make it great success. The business
mon OF Chicago have faithfully fulfilled
every obligation imposed by congress and
every pledge made TO the people in securing

The hearing was concluded by Mr.. Dur
borrow in O few parting words. "Reme IN
ber, gentlemen of the committee" said he,
''you are looking for electoral votes
in the state of Illinois. There is
no plank that you can put in
the platform to be adopted by TINS
convention which will so arouse the inter-
ests of the people of Illinois in the demo
cratic party as endorsing this platform.
Adopt the plank which will enable the house
of representatives of the Fifty-second con-
gress to enact such legislation as will make
the exposition complete and lasting success
ana an honor to our whole country"
The committee then retired, confident that
some resolution giving proper recognition TO
the Worlds fair would be adopted.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 2l.-A circus tent
greatly magnlfied, with dozen huge white
pendants stretching from covering to floor,
was the appe arance Of the huge democratic
wigwam from the interior today. What ap-
peared to be pendants were really stout posts
supporting the mammoth circular can
opy of wood, raised some dis
tance above the walls to admit light
and air from all sides. Blue silken banners
distributed on the main floor bearing the
names of the various states showed where
the state delegations would be seated
Around ana back of them, rising like an
amphitheater, were tiers Of seats containing
the spectators, the entire structure hav-
ing room for more than twenty thou
sand people. The chairman's desk was
the same over which Cleveland and Hend-
ricks were nominated in 1854, surmounted
by huge bouquets of flowers. The great in
terror was wreathed with red, white and
blue streamers, flags and banners. There
were tere and there the shields of the differ
ent states and portraits of honored demo-
Gratis Of the past.
The delegations we're seated according to
the alphabet, Alabama having the front row
and New York well back.
The crowd began 10 gather as early as ii
o'clock, though the convention was not to be
called to order till noon, and it was long after
that hour before tho actual calling TO order
took place. When the gavel finally fell the
great structure was completely filed with
people.

CHICAGO, H., June 2l.-The effort to break
the backbone of the Cleveland movement by
removin some OF Its vertebre in the south
has met with failure. The strongest Of the
Cleveland southern leaders now practi-
cally admit Cleveland's denomination on the
first ballot. Even the Hill people, in part at
least, are now ready to admit their defeat
and in doing so they give all the credit to the
generalship Of ex-Secretary Whitney. They
complain at the same time that there wasIn

fact no organization outside of New York.
Hon. Patrick Walsh of Augusta, Ga, who
has been outspoken in his opposition 10
Cleveland, and represents the Randall tariff
idea In the demooratic party, said: THE
contest for the presidential nomination is
virtually ended. There is no tonger any
dou pt as TO the nomination Of Cleveland on
the first ballot. 1t is very probable that
there will be no formal presentation of any
other candidate. 1t is believed that Gov
ernor Gray of Indiana will be nominated for

WASHINGTON, ID. c., June 2l.-[Special
Telegram to The BEE. IA private dispatch
which has been received In this city from
Chicago announces the fact that at secret
session of tho Tammany leaders held about
midnight last night and at which Messrs.
Croker, Sheehan, Ed Murphy and Gllroy
were the principal braves present, it was de-
cided that the Tammany organization should
place no obstacle in the way of making tho
nomination of Grover Cleveland unanimous
after the first ballot had been taken. This
news is perfectly reliable and considered i'm
portant here as emphasizing the fact which
has long been recognized that Tammany's
opposition to Cleveland and Its champion
ship OF Hill was simply part which had
been assumed by tho New York democratic
tiger in return for favors done the organiza-
tion by Mr.. Hill while he was governor of
New York.
II also shows that the strIdent claims made
by the Tammany people to the effect that
Mr.. Cleveland cannot carry New York have
not been based on genuine fear that he
could not be elected, but was part of tho
general scheme by which the organization
was to repay the man to whom 1t is under
obligations. Another dispatch, also from
Chicago, announces that the Ono delegation
will be voted as a unit for Mr.. Cleveland.

citing meeting, at which Henry Watterson
made one OF his famous speeches, in which
he said that henceforth he was for Cleve-

mated. He declared that In the last thirty
SIX hours under the wonderful management
OF ex-Sccretary Whitney, there had been
brought about a remarkable change in the
situation in New York, and that ho was con-
vinced that the only ground on which he had
opposed Mr. Cleveand's nomination had
been removed, and that Cleveland would bc
able 10 carry the state Of New York.

Just as Mr.. Watterson finished his speech
the impatient crowd burst open the doors
and surged around the pers spring orator. 1t
was a dramatic scene, but MIR. Watterson
waved his hands right and left and quickly
elbowed his way out into the corridors.
Three cheers for Cleveland and Waiter

with a vfm such as only enthusiastic Ken
tuckians can give expression to.
The balance OF the delegates came out soon
after. All wore smiles of contentme1t and
satisfaction. They hurried away to the con-
preaching. mo formal vote was taken us

the delegation is without doubt solid for
