CHICAGO, June 17.-There are many
presidential barks tossing about on the
political sea tonight, but through the
miStS and shadows the hull of Cleve-
lands hopes looms Ominously above
them all. 1t is indeed Cleveland against
the field and the field against Cleveland.
Every body realizes that the great Ques-
tion of the convention is. "Will Cleve-
land be nominated on the first ballot?"
Should the logic of events answer this
question in the negative, the friends of
all the secondary candidates will feel
that the lists are then open to their
favOrites; for somehow the conviction
has gone forth that the failure of the
eX-preSident 10 receive the nomination
on the enthusiasm of the first ballot
means the elimination of the great tar
if refOrmer from the contest.
They feel that temporary check to
the Cleveland impetuosity will be to de-
strOy all the magic of his name, and thai
no subsequent effort can possibly swell
his following to the twO-thirds vote
which was wanting on the first ballot.
Ali this is the opinion entertained by
the delegations who have favorite sons
to offer, but it by no. means follows that
the correctness of this opinion is con-
ceded by the Cleveland managers. Far
from it. They maintain that while they
believe their man will be nominated on
the first ballot, the failure TO receive the
requisite two-thirds on that ballot will
not be an indication of his subsequent
defeat, for they expect important acces-
sions from the followers of Boies, Hill
and Gray after their states have paid
the complimentary tribute to the favor
ite sons.

Anti-Snappers Likely to Appeal to
Convention

Anti-Snappers Likely to Appeal to
a Convention.
CHICAGO, June 17.-Fuel was added
to the fire at the Cleveland headquar-
ters this evening by a statement
purporting to come from the
Tammany element. to the effect
that ex-aMyor Grace, Frederick
r. Coudert, Mayor Bishop, Secretary
Charles Fairchild and the other dele
gates from the Syracuse convention
would be compelled to cool their heels
outside of the wigwam inasmuch as
Sheehan had control of the tickets for
the New York delegation and proposed
TO deliver them to those lie considered
right parties.
In response TO this defiance it was
given out that. the anti-snappers had
determined to make contest, although
the plan will not be matared until the
meeting of the delegation which has
been called for Monday morning.
Some of the delegates favor an appeal
to the national committee, others are
OF the opinion that regular contest
should b made before the committee
on credentials. In the event. however,
d fair play, according TO the anti
snapper idea. being refused by both of
these committees, then formal petition
will be prepared for presentation to the
convention asking that two representa-
tyes of the Syracuse convention be al

Delegates from Massachusetts. Ohio.
and wisconsin are said to have offered
their support in the way of presenting
such a petition and of urging that its
prayer be granted. 1t would require but
a majority vote to secure the request,
and the Clevelandites are confident that
every delegate who is counted for Cleve-
land will vote to give them an hearing.
Once their case regularly presented be-

BEGINNING TO FIGURE.
Cleveland Lacks Hundred Votes
at Present

CHICAGO, June 17.-As conceded by
representatives of all the elements, the
situation is simply tha. the adherents
of Hill will hold the Balance
of power. Just what particular
number of votes the supporters of
Cleveland will lack on the first ballot is
a debatable question. A table prepared
by one of the anti-snapperS ana based
upon the results of the various state
conventions. give the eX-president 800
votes. or SO less than the total needed to
nominate. In this estimate, however,
the 4S votes of Illinois are counted for
Palmer. and the so of Indiana for Gray.
Neither OF these calculations can be
accepted as reliable, as the eX-preSident
is absolutely certain of at least IA votes
from Indiana, and 20 from Illinois,
which would bring his estimate up to
534. In the estimate in question sixty
eight Hill delegates are credited TO
seven Southern states, but it
is contended by the Clevelandites
that the men so classified are
open to conviction. Whether or not
Cleveland's strength is 500 or over that
figure, it is apparent at this time that
unless there is an entire revolution of
sentiment on the part of the Hill peo-
pie OulSluC vi Iuc NEW IOIhelS lc Is
bound TO run from thirty to forty less
than the number of votes required OH
the first ballot.
Friends of Gov. Boies, who have en-
cred upon remarkably active CAM
paign, are not inclined ito think that the
expresldent will get even 500Votes as
starter. Although their favorite is cred
tied with onlyti1e tWenty.siX votes of
Iowa, they say tonight they have asSGr-
ance of at least seventy votes on the first
votes. The eight votes OF North Da-
kUta, Which were supposed TO be split
up between Cleveland and Hill, Will,
they say, be cast solid for, the
Iowan, while they will have support
from the Southern States that will up
set the calculations of both Hill AID
Cleveland leaders SO far as their
Southern missionary work is concerned,
they are banking considerably OH
speech in opposition to the force Eill
delivered by Gov. Boies at Keolluk, in
OCTOBER, 1880, and in which he took
strong ground that the measure in
question was no more necessary in the
Southern states than in the North.

corning 1t.

CHICAGO, June 17.-As yet but few
of the Southern delegates have arrived.
AS at Minneapolis, the men of the
South hold the balance Of power.
and as consequence present
the most promising field for the
labors of the president makers. The
anti-Cleveland men think if they can
keep the Southern delegates from Cleve-
land OH the first ballot. or until the i'm
possibility of his candidacy is made ap-
pale ent, they can then be swung into
line for some more available candidate
perhaps Western man. Those anti
Cleveland men point out that probably
the delegates from neither of the Caro-
linas will vote for the eX-presidpnt, and
that he cannot secure more than one
half the votes of Georgia, Alabama and
Virginia. This process will so reduce
Cleveland'S vote from the South as TO
prevent his nomination. They say Mr..
German will be given the votes of the
Southern delegates with Cleveland, and
that Carlisle will secure not a few. In
the roundup, the issue will be accord
ing to the scheme of the anti-Cleveland
man, between German and ! Western
man.
