Hold Their State Conventions Today-Clev We
land Seems to Be in the Lead.
COLUMBUS, O., June 1.-THE Democratic
state convention Will convene tomorrow
morning. Nearly all the delegates arrived
today and the district meetings we're held
this afternoon. The various convention
committees were selected, including the
state central committee and six districts,
which had not already done so, selected
delegates to Chicago. Of these, two are
pronounced Cleveland men, two anti
Cleveland, aud the others for the strongest
man at Chicago.
The state is lost sight Of in the contest
for delegates at-large. 1t is conceded that
Brice and Campbell will be selected with
out opposition. For the other two places
the NEST probable TO succeed are Robert
Blee, of Cleveland; Allen w. Thurman, of
Columbus, and L. t. Neal, of Chillicothe.
There is a strong fight being made on
the candidacy of Cleveland. Allen w.
Thurman is pronounced in this regard, and
his success will DO recognized as a Cleve-
land victory. The opposition, however, is
well organized and have won about every
contest today in caucus The best judges
analyse the delegation TO stand ten or
twelve for Cleveland, about the same num-
Der for Hill and the remainder Of the forty
six are unpledged, but have strong feel
ing fer Cleveland.

Of very much decreased yield, unless the
