will agree with his representatives here,
that they are doing the wisest thing not to
present his name. He declares no under
standing has been reached as to the
second place for Gray. The only point ar
rived at is that the country demands
Cleveland before any other man. After
Cleveland's nomination the question of
second place will bring into consideration
Gray's undoubted strength il Indiana,
where the chief battle ground after New
York will be.
The question of giving New Mexico six
delegates instead of two was brought up
and settled by the following resolution:
Resolved, That this committee, dis
claiming the right to dictate to the couven-
ton what action it shall take with refer
ence TO the claim of Arizona and New
Mexico to additional representation, re-
commends that the claims Of New Mexico
and Arizona be recognized by the conyen-
ton to the extent of admission to the con-
vention with representation equal to the
representation of the smallest state"
II this resolution is adopted in the con-
vention it will swell the total membership
10 904 and make 604 vo es necessary in
order to secure nomination.

NUMBERING OF THE FORCES.
Cleveland Hen Display Some Very Conclu-
sive Figures

Cleveland Hen Display Some Very Conclu-
sive Figures.
CHICAGO, June 2O.-With delegates pres
emit from all the states to the Democratic
convention, the numbering of the forces of
the various leaders is diligently going for
ward. Cleveland's followers this morning
displayed with much ostentation care
fully prepared table which gives Cleveland
$50 votes on the first ballot. just nineteen
short of the necessary two-thirds to insure
nomination. The anti-Cleveland factions,
including not only the Hill, but also the
Boies, Gray and German men, scout these
figures as unreasonably large and assert
that their investigations show that
Cleveland is assured Of but little more than
bare majority on the first ballot, and still
hold that his forces win be steadily dis
integrated thereafter. aud the race become
one of dark horses.'
The most uncertain feature at present is
the attitude of Senator German of Mary
land. AS leader of the delegation he pro-
tests loyalty to Cleveland, but despite this
his namo is more discussed as a dark horse
more capable of uniting all fac
tions opposed to the nomination of
Cleveland than any other. His friends
have been industriously canvass
ing the southern delegations as fast as they
come in, for several days, with a view of
securing their support on the strength of
Gormen's efforts as leader of the opposi-
ton in defeating the force bill, but, so far,
the southerners do not seem to take kindly
to the efforts to wesn them from the ranks
of the ex- president.
LOYAL TO BoIEs.
The loyalty OF the Iowa del egation TO
Boies has aroused the admiration of the
Democrats of the nation. 1t was natural
to suppose at the beginning that as Cleve-
land always has been popular among the
farmers Of the Hawkeye state, the arrival
| of TIE Cleveland leaders and the demon
stration of the fact that he would have
over majority on the first ballot, would
cause the weakening of Boies' forces and
the extending Of the olive branch of con-
Citation or compromise to the Cleveland
managers. They have demonstrated the
fact that the vote of Iowa is immovabiy
welded to the hopes of the Hawkeye gov
ernor and this situation is generally &C
cepted by all the opposition leaders.
II is suggested that Boies would be a
good presidential candidate, but this
does not even find courteous reception in
tne iowa headquarters. 1ndeeu, the B0IeS
people rather resent it az an overture for
the Iowa vote in return for the vice-presi-
Dental nomination for Boies, and intruders
are at once given to understand that Boies
is not O candidate for, and will not accept.
the second place.
The Indiana delegation held several
conferences with view to hnrmonizing
the differences before the meeting of the
convention, in order not TO dissipate its
strength, but all efforts have been unavail-
ing, and 1t now looks as if on opening the
ballot it will cast II votes for Governor
Gray and ID for Cleveland.

THE SYRACUSE DELEGATES
Meet to Consider What Action They Should
Take as TO the Contest.

CHICAGO, June 2O.-The delegates from
Syracuse. n. Y, convention supporters of
Cleveland, met this morning 10 consider
what action they should take as to contest
ing the seats of the Hill men, either before
the committee on credentials or the con-
vention. The committee was appointed to
suggest plan of action aud to report to
the delegation this evening.
The Syracuse ''anti-suappers' have re-
ceived applications from many state dele
cations asking that they send men TO them
to explain how Cleveland can carry New
York. Prompt responses are being made
TO these applications and the "Dandelion"
delegates are in turn asking the Hill sup
porters to join them in a joint canvas of
the New York situation before the various
delegations. Among the accessions this
morning to the ranks OF the ''anti snappers''
are Alexander Orr, president of tee New
York produce exchange; James Stamina
han, ex-ca1sl commissioner, and Colonel
William A Brown. The "anti-snappers'
of Buffalo arrived this morning $50 strong.

MONTREAL, June 2O.-Heavy rains passed
over section OF the Grand Trunk railway

damaging the line to the extent Of eighty
feet. The local passenger train ran into a
washcut and the engine and express, bag
gage, second class and postal cars went
down, carrying aIl han5s with them. The
first class carriage remained suspended

CONCEDED TO CLEVELAND.
The Situation at Midnight Looks Decidedly in
Ills Favor

Ills Favor.
CHICAGO, June 90. The Democratic presi-
Dental ticket for 1892 will be Cleveland
and Gray, or at least such is the general
impression among the leading men Of all
factions at midnight tonight. The pro-
gramme as generally understood around
the Cleveland headquarters at that hour
was that W. L. Wilson, of West Virginia,
would be
PERMANENT CHAIRMAN OF THE CONVENTION
and that no fight would be made in the
convention on the temporary chairman
ship. Governor Abbott Of New York, it is
believed, will make the nominating speech
for Cleveland.
The above result is believed to have
been brought about by the enforcement of
the unit rule in Illinois, Indiana, Pennsyl
vania aud Missouri. The Cleveland vic
tory must also be admitted in q large
measure to be due to the firm stand taken
on behalf of the ex-president by Senator
Palmer Of Illinois and by Ex-Governor
Campbell OF Ohio.

NOTHING BUT A ROW.
The Reported Battle at Sugg's, wyO-, Thought
to Amount TO Nothing.

OMAHA, Neb., June 2O.-TSpecial tele-
gram to CHE HERALD. It is the opinion
of the officers about army headquarters
that the reported battle at Sugg's, Wyo..
was nothing but a row between some OF
the troops and herd Of gamblers that con-
gregate about the frontier camps. The
troops were paid their monthly dues the
day before the the disturbance, and it is
surmised that some of them slipped out
through the lines on the night Of the row
and got into scrap with the tough men
and women about the town.
Colonel Biddle, commander Of the regi-
ment, was not at the camp ut the time, but
is on his way there now. Major IIlesley
was in command. He telegraphed General
Brook that disturbance had arisen and
the troops had taken control of the town.
1t is the Ninth cavalry that has gotten into
tie difficulty. There are six troops. over
600 men, belonging to the regiment on the
ground. ''There are soldiers enough there
to take care of thst town and have plenty
of men to spare" said one of the officers at
the headquarters.

CHICAGO, June 20. "A signal victory for
the Cleveland forces was fought and won
almost without a struggle yesterday. 1t
was the question of unit rule in the Penn
sylvania delegation. 1t was understood
that strong effort would be made to
break the unit rule Ia the keystone state,
and the result here, it was thought would
be initiated in other delegations. After
disposing of the selection of committee
men, a resolution was offered that the
chairman of the delegation be instructed
to ask a solid vote of the delegation for
Cleveland until he was nominated or until
otherwise instructed. = motion was made
TO amend by inserting the name of Gov
ernor Pattison instead Of that of Cleve-
land. The amendment was lost, and the
original resolution, which granted the
solid vote of Pennsylvania tor Cleveland,
was passed, IS to 4.
