Especial 10 Atlanta Constitution.
CHICAGO, Jure Ex-Governor Till
man, OF South Carolina, called upon
some of tie Cleveland managers to-
night, and told them emphat!cally that
If they presented and nominated Mr..
Cleveland, he did not believe the De-
mocracy could carry South Carolina.
He further stated that he had infOrma-
ton from the Alliance people all over
the South that they would not vote for
Cleveland on account Of bis silver
views, but woulC vote for the Peoples
party candidate for President. He be-
lieved Cleveland'S nomination would
Cause the loss OF twenty or thirty con-
congressional districts in the Southern

SOUTH CAROLINA WILLCAsT THIRTEEN
VOTES FOR BOIES.
CHICAGO, June 20.-The PIRATE wire
that connects the Iowa delegation with
the State House at Des Moines con-
veyed to Governor BOies to-day the
gratifying information that his boom
had suddenly assumed what might be
regarded as formidable proportions.
The information came from Senator
Shields, the Governors political mana
GER, and Was TO effect that propositions
had come from both Senator Brlce and
Henry WatterSon looking to the throw
ing of the cleveland strength to
the Iowan. Shortly after this the
I0wans were notified that the South
Carolina delegation had decided to cast
thirteen votes for BOles.
WILL BE NOMINATED on TIE FIRST
BALLOT.
Especial to Augusta Chronicle.l
CHICAGO, june 2O.-William {.
Whitney is master of the situation.
Grover Cleveland will be nominated
on the first ballot. Gray will probably
get second place. Thus, AS in 1854, the
ha;tle-gounds will be New York and
Indiana.
Mr.. Cleveland's candidacy was adml-
rably managed by Mr.. Whitney. There
was neither life nor system to the oppo-
sition to Mr.. Cleveland outside of the
New York delegation. If Hill, Cor
man, BOies, Morrison, Carlisle and other
flvOrite sOns bad remained in the field,
Clevcland's nomination could have been
pos, ,poned, but not prevented. The
pressure for Cleveland's nomination
cannot be resisted, and it is now fore
gone conclusion. The South, with New
York, New Jersey, Connecticut and
Indiana, can elect him. Our chances
are fair for Iowa, Wisconsin and Mich
igan. We can elect our ticket.
