Up to yesterday at least dozen peo-
pie from Wheeling and its immediate
neighborhood had left for the scene OF
festivities where the next President
will be named, and last night about three
dozen others left on the 1890 B. d o.
train bound for the same place.
This evening another big delegation
will 90, and few will delay their de-
parture until tomorrow, as that will
put them in the big city by the unsalted
sea in time for the opening of the Con-
vention. The rate is so very lOw-but
SIPS for the round trip-and the attrac-
tion so great that few who can possibly
spare the time from business are able to
withstand the inducements offered, and
as a result the city of Wheeling and
West Virginia at large will make a
splendid showing.

Some eight or ten Bellaire citizens
boarded last nights train at that place,
and several others are booked TO go to-
night.
Last evening there was a great
amount Of interest in the probable out
come of the Convention, all through the
city, and there were many expressions
of the fear that Mr.. Cleveland's chances
were not what they would other
wise be was there no internal trouble
in the party In New York, and that it
might be adjudged the best for the
interests Of the party to lay him
aside in favor of some man not en-
tangled with Tammany and other side
issues. Men most often turned to Sen
ator German, Of Maryland, as solu-
tion of the problem, while not few
spoke strongly Of Flower as man who
could heal all local troubles in
New York. But with the assurance
that New York could be carried by
Cleveland, it was conceded that there
would not be much doubt as TO the re-
suit of the Convention.
Major John W. Mitchell sent the fol-
lowing to a friend, last night:
"CHIcAGO, June is.
"The enthusiasm is great, and the
city crowded. Bands are playing at all
points. There is general good feeling.
Cleveland seems to be on top.
