A Review of the First Days Work of the Con-

CHICAGO, June 2l.-The National Demo
cratic convention was in session two hours
today and during that time but one illus
trious American was observation-disclosures G.
Blaine. BY a singular coinc idence the
Democratic idol, Grover Cleveland. who is
destined to be the nominee of the conven-
ton, was unmentioned throughout the ses-
sion. while that of Blaine called for th the
MOST ENTHUSIASTIC DEMoNsTRATIoN
of the day. Before the purport of the res
olutions was known and Immediately on
the mention of Blaine" the secretary
was interrupted by the tremendous ova-
his rame at Minneapolis Equally pleas
ant was the incident which followed, when
Hon. e. G. Sweet OF Maine arose and
thanked the convention on behalf of his
state for the resolutions adopted.
The indications are that the national
convention of 1892 is not to be as inhar-
monious as was generally predicted. The
proceeding today were
UNUSUALLY TAME,
but no action was offered to call forth any
particular party enthusiasm. The speech
of the temporary chairman was well re-
ceived. His arraignment of the Republi-
can doctrine was delivered in original and
effective language.
The only dissension which occurred in the
days proceeding was over the attempt of
several delegates to throw open the vacant
galleries to the crowds of eager Democrats
who were standing outside in the rain.
No one seems to explain the reason, but
throughout the session there were 5000
uBoccupied seats in the galleries OF the
convention hall, and there is great popular
inquiry as to who held the tickets for the
seats. No one volunteered any informa-
ton, but the national committee naturally
came in for most Of the blame and it was
generally asserted that members of the
organization or some of their favorite
friends pocketed the tickets, to be used at
the time and to the best advantage in fill
ing the galleries with cheerers for some
particular candidate.

held another caucus this afternoon, and ia
view of GormaD's refusal 20 permit the use
Of his name as a candidate for the presi-
dency, decided to cast their vote for Gov
ernor Boies.
A sub committee was appointed, headed
by Patterson of Colorado, for the purpose
of presenting the silver views of the west
ern delegates to the committee on resolu-
tions. 1t was further decided in case the
committee refused to recommend free
coinage. bi-metalic plank, and that an ap-
peal be taken to the convention. There is
much talk among the delegates present Of
throwing the support of the silver states
to the peoples party in case the Demo
cratic convention should not give heed to
the silver interests and it is probable the
representatives Of the silver states will wal:
on the convention of that. party at Omaha,
July with that purpose in view.
CHICAGO, June 21.-To w. A. Clark o f
Montana, the uncompromising advocate Of
free bi-metallic coinage, and ex-senator
Patterson of Colorado is due the credit of
securing the adoption by the conference of
silver states at their conference this after
noon of strong silver party, the adoption
of which these two gentlemen are urging
with consumate ability on the platform
committee of the Democratic convention.
Clark declares his course in this connec-
ton will be open and uncompromising !;
that the interest not only of the silver
states but of the agricultural states must
necessarily suffer until the contracting of
the circulating medium of the country is
relieved by free and unlimited coinage.

dissentiou clearing away. 1t does not re-
qu!re the divine gift of prophesy TO predict
the nomination of Grover Cleveland on

president has about removed all doubt
from the situation. Then all dark horses,
including German, Morrison, Russell and

Every effort OF the Cleveland people to
persuade the Iowa delegation to desert
Governor Boies has proven signally unsuc-

Cleveland viii be nominated on the first
ballot the Boies people have announced
that their candidate will remain in the
race till the END, not only as a matter of
state pride. but as a protest against the
nomination OF candidate not supported
by his own state. Indeed Boies' followers
are almost as bitter as the Hill men in their
protestation against Clevelaud's nomina-
zion.

Some Opposition Developing to Indiana's

CHICAGO, June 21.-The selection of ex-
Governor Gray Of Indiana as the running
mate OF ex-Fresident Cleveland seemed
probable last night and this morning, but
later in the day it transpired that
GRAY MIGHT HAVE OPPOSITION
where least expected. There are various
members of the Indiana delegation who are
opposed TO the selection of Gray and who
have been disposed to construe his nomina-
ton as an affront to the people who have
borne the brunt of battle in the Hoosier
state in behalf of Cleveland and in opposi-
tion to the presidential ambition of lndi-
anass favorite son.
Discussion of this particular situation IN
