by the rank and file rather than by the
Leaders of the Hill forces, and it is still

THE SILENT BRicE.
In the midst of all the wordy warfare of
this great national convention there is one
man who has made remarkable reputa-
ton for silence. II is the Hon. Calvin S.
Brice senator from Ohio and chairman OF
VIZ hptibiAal ptluuCTAtlt COl4}ltttee. Inc
senator maintains with much sunyity that
he is not participating In any way In the
selection of the Presidential candidate. As
delegate-nt-large from the state of Ohio he
VIII have vote to cast and up to this
time 1t was supposed that vote would be
cast against Grover Cleveland. But the
senator. without giving any intimation of
the accuracy or inaccuracy of this con-
lecture, simply states that as chairman of
R.ar0a mil i.fI -
indecorous in him to attempt to control
the will of the convention i'll the selection
of its Presidential candidate.
Every effort to persuade the Hawkeye
delegation to desert Governor Boies and
cast their votes for Cleveland has proven
unsuccessful. The Boies people announce
that their candidate will remain in the
race to the end and that the vote of Iowa
Will be cast for the governor as matter
Of state pride.
THE TIGERS LAST GASP.
The Tammany people died hard. AT
midnight, after caucus lasting several
hours, the Hill men practically gave up
the fight. They found it was no use fight
ing longer, for from the east, north and
south there was clamor for the ex-Presi-
dent which no manipulation could subdue
or circumyent. AS they left tie hall the
prediction was on every lip, as it had been
50 often said outside, that Cleveland could
never carry the state of New York, but
this prediction afforded no satisfaction
and they sought the seclusion of their
couches with disgust. Although beaten
they will go down with the Hill colors
nailed TO the mast, in harmony with the
declaration of their chief sent out from
Washington this morning.
KENTUCKY FOR CLEVELAND.
Prominent men being cheered as they
enter.
II is said the opponents of Cleveland
are trying to effect a combination on Cor
man or Boies, but so fur unsuGcessfully
The Kentucky delegation met this morn
ing and 10 votes certainly and perhaps all
the votes of the state will DO east for Cleye-
land. Carlisle's name will not be pre-
scented.
IOWA WILL STICK TO BoiEs.
The Iowans are still sticking to Boies.
They have nailed their flag to the mast
and propose to 60 down with all sails set
and banners flying. The delegation met
this morning and at once took up the matter
of keeping in the race. II did not
take long to come to a conclusion. The
announcement was ut once made to the
other lowans in the outer room OF the
delegation headquarters that il had been
decided to keep the name of Poles mp for
first place and that under no circumstances
would any proposition looking to his
acceptance of the second place on the
ticket be considered
The announcement was greeted with
cheers. The feeling among the delegates
is that it is better TO go down in good
cause than TO yield up the fight at once,
and by so doing confess that they were not
as much in earnest as they had tried TO
make their opponents think. As one of
the delegates put 1t, 1--WE came here after
the first place, and il we can't have that
we don't want anything"

selecting the following members of the
national convention committees w. +.
Sheehan, resolutions; Roswell p. Flower,
credentials; w. Bourke Cochran, organiza-
tom w. c. Dwight to notify candidates.
