he had an appearance Of anger which does

PLOTTING AGAINST GROVER.

Break in Two Delegations-Secret Confer
ences of the Opposition.
Special TO the Indianapolis Journal.
CHICAGO, June 17.-To-night there are
some evidences of weakening in Cleve-

Virginia. w. A. Wallace is at the head of
q group of Pennsy Ivsnia delegates NUN ber-
ing eight or ten who were elected from dis.

him under any circumstances. Ii Pennsyl-

Senator Davis who came along with the
West Virginia delegation for the purpose
of kuliing Cleveland, tonight announced
that he has eight Of the West Virginisns
on his side. The Cleveland managers have
been counting on eight of the twelve from
that State.
There can be 10 doubt that the anti.
Cleveland people are making strenuous
endeav0rs to unite upon one line of action
tonight. Voorhees,, Lamb, Captain Allen
and others of the Gray leaders were
closeted with the Tammany chiefs for
an hour at the Auditorium to-
night taking their turn at consultation.
Mike Mcdonald, she notorious gam bier, of
Chicago, held q two hours confab with
German tonight, and then hustled over to
Tammany headquarters. Represent ntatives
of Kentucky and OHIO also paid their re-
spects TO Croker and his associates. 10.
morrow the Tammany braves are to make
a general assault all along the line, send
ing a committee to each delegation on the
ground TO persuade them that Cleveland
cannot carry New York.
Ex-Secretary Whitney arrived late in
the afternoon, and together with Dickin-
son. Stetson. Fairchlld. Harrity, Patrick
Kelly of ST. Paul and other Clevo-
land lieutenants held an all-evening con-
ference behind closed doors at the
Richelieu. They gi-o it out that they will
pursue the same e. -ticF as were followed
by the Harrison leader at Minneapolis. Ie
might not be o rsd idea for them to find
out just what those tactics were. They
seem to be ignorant of the most important
point, namely, as to how many delegates
they have In each State and who they are.

SANTA CRUZ Camp Columbus, Aug. TO-
Governor Markham was expected to arrive
on the narrow-gauge train at II 10 P. NJ,
and the train came exactly on time. Major
General Dimond had rendered the Governor
a divisional escort, but the Governor had
rightly calculated that the boys had plenty
of work on hand and had telegraphed to
decline the honor. He was met at the
temporary depot near the camp by an escort
of the first troop of cavalry and by Mayor
". +. Jeter on behalf of the city of Santa
Cruz. A salute of 19 guns the regulation
for Nice-Presidents and Governors on the
SOIL OF their own State, was fired as the
Governors carriage came up, and the militia
boys crowded to the color line in hundreds
to cheer the chief magistrate of the State.
At the flagstaff, opposite divisiont head
quarters, Major-General Dimond and staff
were on hand to receive the distinguished
guest. The two old soldiers clasped hands
amid fresh outburst of cheers, and il was
hard to say which was the more dignifed of
the two, the major-general in his undreSs
uniform. calm, erect and solderly. or the
Governor in his absolutely unpretending
morning suit, with the appearance of mau
coming to greet old friends in promiscuous
sort of way.

ceeded TO his seat adjoining the division
commanders, Auu was UeSleReQ Oy quite
