The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1892-06-19

fully one-half of the Kentucky delegates
are disposed to favor Cleveland. There are
many who believe that IL the 48 votes OF
Illinois should be cast for Cleveland on the
first ballot it would result in such enthu-
siasm as TO effect his nomination. For this
reason, every resource known to modern
politics is being brought to bear by the diff
ferent factions to control or Influence this
delegation. Two booms which bl0ssomed
to-day are causing considerable anxiety to
the Cleveland leaders to-night-the German
and the Morrison booms-and there is no
doubt that the friends of both gentle
men are laboring Rssidu0usly to bring
them into the contest as compromise
candidates. German, OF course. could get
the solid vote Of the Maryland delegation
and it is assumed that he would receive
substantial support from various Southern
delegations, principally Kentucky, Arkan-
sas aud Texas. The proposition to vote for
Palmer whenever the nomination Of Cleve-
land appears inexpedient finds no particular
opposition tonight from the Morrison
people and probably the great tariff re-
former will only be pushed into the contest
as a dark horse after Cleveland has retired
and Palmer has received the loyal support
of the Illinois delegation for several ballots.

shows no sign of realization, and even the

forced to admit that the utterance OF the

CHICAGO, June 1S.-A rumOr was current
early this evening that Senator Hill had

was due in this city at 80 o'clock. but was
several hours late. His friends, however,
scout the idea. and say that lie is not CON-

what his Topeka letter was intended TO be,
did not exactly startle any element OF the
Democracy in Chicago. The opinion was
general that the publication OF the
lots-r at this time, Just before the
assembling of the convention, was,
II not directly prompted by the
Senator at least with his full knowledge
and consent. There was unanimity as to
one phase OF the matter, that the object was
to help Hill with the Western and Southern
votes. Cleveland's friends were inclined
to treat the letter scornfully.
Lieutenant-GovernOT or Sheehan at the Tam
many headquarters was extremely cautious
in discussing thh letter. Sheehan declined
to even so far commit himself as TO express
an opinion whether or not it would gain
Hill any votes in the convention. AT the
silver headquarters the reading of the letter
caused elati0n. National Committeeman

EX-Secretary Whitney, in an interview of
some length, stated that the opposition to
Cleveland is not so much opposition TO the
eX-President as it Is to the independent vote
that follows him. He thinks that grave in
justice is done in identifying Cleveland with
mugwump methods as though he was
not good party man. Whitney cited figures
to show that the vote for Cleveland was
steadily Increasing each time from 1882 to
1885, and that Hill got less votes than
Cleveland, Cook or Jones when on the
ticket with either.

1t is learned tonight that the vacancy in
the State Department was referred to only
incidentally and that the conversation be-

almost solely TO The management of the

to suppose that Depew would sacrifice his
