WARRINGTON, June 16-As usual in his cam
nairns senator Hill is now coming down tho
homcstretCh at tremendous pace. and 1t
heeins TO look to the Washington politicians
,s though hr might distance all his rivals.
The Cleveland heavy weight is evidently much
blown, and is falling to the roar rapidly.
This has been bad day for the Cleveland
mon ut The capital. They have lost courage
xofully since they have heard the returns
from Ohio Tho latest ngures from that state.
ssreccivci horc. make the delegates stand SO
tl-tlevcland and only 10 for Cleveland. De-
ser,ions are reported from the Cleveland
rnnks every hour and in nearly every state
and the best authorities here predict that the
candidate OF the Syracuse boilers Will grow
weaker steadily hcnccforth until tho vote Is
taken at Chicago Tho combinations In favor
Of various "favorte sons" which nro being
engineered by Cleveland men. who want
good excuse for dropping their original cam
didstc. are progressing as vigorously as ever;
and this fact. coupcd with the Ohio disaster
and tho Southern dcsertions. is excrting a
very untavoraLle effect upon Mr. ClerCland's
cause.
Senator Hills chances arc improving daily
IN the South and West. as all tho adv!ces from
those sections soon to show. The folly of in
structins delegates simultaneously for Clevo-
land and free silver is becoming apparent
Harrison is committed against FREQ silver and
lis Cleveland. They are both opposed to BIZ
metallism in any form, and both arc pledged
to veto any remedial legislation which Con-
gress in its wisdom may see tit to pass upon
the subject Tho delegates who are now on
their way to Chicago declare that on the other
hand Senator Hills attitude is at least
friendly one. ana that his votes
in tho Senate on tho Arizona hill.
and on tho Teller amendment to the Judi
ciul Decree III, show that he is with the great
masses OF the people on tho financial ques-
tan. They do not believe that he would veto
airce coinage bill based upon proper ratio.
and they 10 believe thut no will vote for such
abi!l In the Senate when 1t comes up for final
passage.
