Representatives From All Sections
Hold a Meeting.
CHICAGO, June M.-A meeting was
held at the Democratic headquarters to-
day by colored Democrats from all parts
of the country, under the auspices of the
negro National Democratic Committee.
Many of them present claimed to be Re
publicans, but said the treatment of the
colored race by President Harrison did
not meet their views of justice, and de
sired hencetorth 10 enter the Democratic
iold.
Among the prominent colored men
present were Dr. Thompson, Minister to
Hayti under President Cleveland; G. H.
Taylor, ex-Minister to Liberia; II. f.
Downing, eX-Minister to st, Paul de
Leona; L. Milton Turner of Missouri,
and 4. G. Lawson, a colored representa-
tive OF Tammany Hall.
Mr.. Johnson and others made speeches
on the tariff and President Harrison's
alleged ill-treatment of the colored race.
johnson said in part: I'VE believe the
Republican party has outlived its useful
ness, 50 far as relates TO the negro, and it
is our duty 10 look for a safer anchorage.
We believe Grover Cleveland gave the
best assurance possible that under Demo-
cratic rule the Afro-Americans' best in
terests were fully conserved. The civil
and political rights OF my race were never
conserved better than under Senator
Hill when Governor OF New York The
great Democratic party has gained wis
dom by experience. 1t deals with ma
lional questions on fundamental princi-
pies; its policy is good government to
all people, white and black, north
as well as south. The Republican
party of to-day. which we turn away
from in sorrow, stands as 4 sectional
party, as political necessity.
The roll of delegates showed seventeen
States represented. 4 permanent organ
ization was formed as follows: President,
l.. l.. Maran Of Iowa; 5. l.. Marsh, First
Vice-President; L. l.. Manning, Second
Vice-President; l.. Easton, Secretary.
The platform adopted expressed belief
that the best interests of all would be
subserved by the ascendency OF the DEM
ocratic party, and concludes as follows:
ReSotUed, Tha. National Afro-American
Democratic Committee be hereby created, TO
consist OF Iive members from each State TO
serve until the next Democratic Convention,
whose duty will be 10 disseminate Democratic
principles and prosecute d vigorous campaign
for the success of the Democratic nominee
for President, keeping in mind the best inter-
ests OF Afro-AIner can citizens and the pros
perity OF the country at large.

CHICAGO, June 21.-An interesting sit
uation is developing in the Tammany
delegation tonight, difference of opin-
ion having arisen among the leaders as
20 the proper policy to pursue in view of
The overwhelming Cleveland sentiment.
| Croker is reported to be in favor of an
understanding with the Cleveland lead
ers, and is endeavoring TO persuade Muir
ply and Sheeban to prevail on Hill to
harmonic the differences. Many leading
Hill men outside OF New ork are wiring
Senator Hill to the same effect tonight
The indication tonight is that the
Cleveland leaders will endeavor to have
Harrity OF Pennsylvania selected as
Chairman of the National Committee
during the approaching campaign.
The Committee on Rules has formu-
lated set in which there are no radical
changes from the previous convention
methods.
The Iowa people are more confident to-
night. They have the assurance of final
support from many quarters, and in their
conference they have agreed with Tam
many that there will be no choice on the
first sballot. Delegate-at-Lar Martin
says the indications tonight are much
brighter, but denied that any conference
had been held with the Tammany lead
ers. NEW York's first ballot will 60 for

Special to the REcoRp-US1oS.

BREsT, June 2I.-A frightful accident
occurred yesterday on board the new
French cruiser Dupuy de Come. A trial
was being made of her machinery, when
the head of one of her boilers was blown
out and an explosion occurred in one of
the coal bunkers, totally disabling the
vessel. The fire hold at once filled up
with scaldlng steam and smoke, while
boiling water covered the floor to a depth
of several inches. The unfortunate stok-
ers and engineers imprisoned in the
hold writhed in agony as the scalding
steam filled their lungs, and falling to the
floor, were scalded by the hot water
While in agony they bit themselves and
companions and fought and struggled
together. Attempts were made to rescue
them, but they were met by the same
frenzied resistance, biting those who
tried to drag them out. Finally fifteen
OF them were rescued and taken dying
to the hospital. a number OF the others
will undoubtedly die in short time.

means that Tammany Hall has won OBJ
stacles TO Cleveland's royal triumph.
The fact manifest that the Republican
lines in Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois,
Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas were broken
infused courage into the Democrats. The
doubtful Democratic States of the West
uniting on Cleveland constrained the
opposition IN the solid South to yield. On
the silver question the South and West
are in accord, and therefore inclined to
support each other in all matters. But
neither can thesSouth nor West furnish d
candidate for the Presidency in 1892. In
deed, the effort with brass bands and pub
lie parades make the candidacy of Hill,
Palmer, Morrison and Boies no more
successful than the whisperings for Cor
man and Carlisle, and while it is true
that ex-Federal officeholders are here in
formidable number, still men like Cor
man, Palmer, Boies and Gray are here to
execute the will OF the masses. Never
was National Democratic Convention
more thoroughly dominated by popular
opinion against the judgment of the most
generous minded and acknowledged
leaders.
GRAY MAY HAVE OPPOSITION.
The selection of Ex-Governor Gray of
Indiana as a running mate with ex-Presi-
dent Cleveland seemed probable last
night and this morning, but during the
day it transpired that Gray might have
opposition where least expected. There
are various members of the Indiana dele
CATION who are opposed to the selection of
Gray, and who are disposed to construe
his nomination as an affront to the peo-
pie who have borne the brunt of battle in
the Hoosier State in behalf of Cleveland
and in opposition to the Presidential
ambition of Indiana's favorite son. Dis
cussion of this peculiar situation in the
Hoosier State caused the entire question
to be opened again. 1t is said the Cleve-
land people Of Indiana favor the selection
Of Congressman Bynum Of Indianapolis,
II an Indiana man is to be nominated for
the Presidency, and the Georgia
delegation is also understood to favor
Bynum. Stevenson and Morrison. of
Illinois, Boies of Iowa and Campbell of
Ohio are also freely discussed, but despite
this speculation Gray appears to be the
favorite candidate for the Vice Presi-
dency.
At 1880 tonight eX-Secretary Whitney
stated that Cleveland was sure of 626
votes on the first ballot, a gain of twenty
five since yesterday.
Whitney stated that there has been no
conclusion reached as to the Vice-Presi-
dental candidate.

the Cleveland Fold.
CHICAGO, June 81 The opening of
convention day finds the clouds of poiiti-
cal indecision clearing away. It does not
require divine gift of prophecy to predict
the nomination of Grover Cleveland on
the first ballot. Indeed, this result is
conceded, even by the friends OF Hill and
Boies, the only other candidates now in
the field, though there is every indica-
ton that they viii go down to defeat with
colors flying and with the solid support
of their respective States behind them.
The official announcements that Penn
sylvania, Illinois and Indiana have de-
serted their favorite sons and will cast
their aggregate of liz votes for the ex-

CHICAGO, June 2l.-The circus tent.
greatly magnified with the dozen huge
white pendants stretching from covering
to floor, was the appearance Of the big
Democratic wigwam from the interior to-
day. What appeared to be pendants were
really the stout posts supporting the
mammoth circular canopy OF wood
raised some distance above the walls to
admit the light and air from all sides.
Blue silken banners distributed on the
main floor. bearing the names of the vari-
Gus States showed where the State dele
cations would be seated. Around and
back of them, rising like an amphithea-
ter, were tiers of seats containing specta-
tors, the entire structure having room for
more than 20, 600 people. The Chairman's
desk, the same over which Cleveland and
Hendricks were nominated III 1854 was
surmounted by huge bouquets of flowers.
The great interior was wreathed with
red, white and blue streamers. flags and
banners, with here and there the shields
of the different States and portraits of
honored Democrats OF the past.
The delegations were seated according
to alphabet, Alabama having the front
row and New York well back.
The crowd began TO gather as early as
ii clock, though the convention was not
to be called to order till noon Ii was
long after that hour before the actual call
ing to order took place. When the gavel
finally fell the great structure was COM
pletely filled with people.
While the convention was assem- bling
the blue satin banner Of the Horace Boies
Club of Davenport, Iowa, was borne for

last hitch. They We're greeted with ap-
plause, as were the Tammany leaders of
New York, who followed closely. Then
came Illinois and Pennsylvania, and
then, in groups and pairs and singly, the
other States took their places.
There was tremendous cheering for
Whitney when he came into the conven-
ton hall. Hundreds pressed forward TO
shake his hand. He was the hero OF the
hour.
THE AUDIENCE ALARMED.
It was high noon. A black shadow
crept up from the north, overspread the
sky and the great spaces under the gall
lerleS became dim and shadowy. A hush
crept over the throng, and white faces
were turned upward TO the opening be-
meath the light wooden roof Was the
roof again to be blown away? Would
terrific winds come out of the growing
blackneSs? Was there danger, would
there be peril il remaining? But as the
shadow finally enveloped the entire
structure, luckily no cry of fear came,
though wolnen's faces were white and
mems faces We're tense with anxiety.
Then came a vivid flash of light, and the
booming report OF thunder reached the
anxious crowd and darker grew the
murky air. At length, so great was the
outer darkness, the news writers were
compelled to pause, unable TO see.
Quickly followed the rafting burst OF
rain upon the root, and almost instantly
