The greatest sensation of the day out
side OF political developments was the ar
rival of the Tammany braves from New
York. Nine hundred of them marched
into the Leland hotel this afternoon. A
stuffed tiger had been placed over the
desk OF the hotel clerk, looking fierce and
liie-like, and the braves dotted their hats
to the animal Tammany reigned SUI
preme. The larger part of the braves were
fine-looking men and were greatly adj
mired by the vast crowds who had gath
cred around the Michigan Central depot
and the hotels To witness their arrival.
All wore badges marked "Tammany Hail."
and the majority of them wore miniature
pictures OF Senator Hill upon their c. ats.
Among the big chieftains in the party
were Commissioner Bernard Martin, Quar-.
antine Commissioner Charles Alien, Reg
lister Frank J. Fitzgerald, John b. Grim

Thew We're anxious for Information on the
situation. The reports that they had re-
ceived while on the way regarding the
Hill boom were rather discouraging and
the most of them at once hurried TO the
headquarters at the Auditorium hotel.
There thew were assured that the Hill
boom was very much alive and that re-
ports which had gone out 10 the contrary
were mugwump lies. Few OF the big
Tammany contingent had anything i'll to
say Of Cleveland. They all talked Hill
and said they were confident that he
would be the nominee but there did not
seem to be great amount of enthusiasm
or earnestness in their avowals.
Bridge Commissioner Schwab. who is
one of the leaders in the councils OF Tam
many, said: "Tammany will support the
nominee. be he Cleveland or any other
first last and ali the time. We think he
will be nominated. He is gaining strength
every hour. He never lost a political
battle in his life and the delegates who
are not bound down hand and foot to
Cleveland are beginning to see that under
the superb leadership of Hill New York
would be as sure to 90 democratic as
Texas. Mr. Hill is particularly strong in
the silver states, and you will be surprised
at the votes in those states.
Then Mr.. Cleveland If nominated will
not be knifed?'
"Tammany will support the nominee.
1t never bolts a ticket. l cannot, OF
course, speak for individuals. but you
can put it down as certain that
Tammany as an organization will be loyal
to whomsoever the convention names.
Senator Hill, however, can command
many thousand more votes in New York
than Cleveland His plurality would be
greater than that which the state gave
him in 1883 for governor"
Justice RYAN said: There is bitter
opposition in New York to Mr.. Cleveland.
| He lost the state in 1888 and is less popu-
lar now than when we had the whole
federal patronage to aid him. believe he
would be defeated. That seems TO be the
general sentiment among Tammany men,"
"Who is talked of as second choice"

ces of the delegates but think / aAl sale

choice. He might be our thirty-ifth OF

Mr.. Croker was in conference with
many OF the Tammany leaders who ar

to report in the morning for duty.
