hostility to Mr.. Flower il based on his veto of
the state printing house bill, which the legisla-
ture had passed and which the organized labor
Of New York had been advocating and demand
| ing for a number Of years.
THE NEW JERSEY DELEGATION.
The New Jersey people on the ground pro-
fess to have no knowledge Of the fact that the
name Of Senator Mcpherson of that state is to
] be presented to the convention. Resolutions
strongly advocating the nomination of Cleve-
| land and indorsing his administration were
passed by the state convention, and according
to Oliver Kelly, one Of the delegates, both him
| self and bis colleague regard these resolutions
| O. equivocal to instructions.
There viii be caucus Of the delegation upon
its arrival this afternoon and at which its course
will be definitely decided upon. The Cleveland
people count New Jersey rs solid on their side.
PRESENTING THE NAMES.
The names Of those who will present to the
convention the names Of the respective candi-
dates give promise Of some bouquets of oratory
that will live in history. Mr.. Cleveland will be
placed in nomination by Governor Russell Of
Massachusetts,, Congressman Breckenridge Of
Kentucky will be one Of the seconds and ex-
Governor Campbell is also expected to address
the weight of his voice on the same side. Sem
ator Hill will be placed in nomination by Gov.
Bourke Cochran, while John F. Duncombe,
the silver-tongued orator of Iowa. will perform
y bcEflCo IOI dOFeTuOT DOlet.
According to the present plans of the Maryland
ers Senator Germans name will not be formally
presented, but will be simply voted for when the
state Is reached on the call Of the roll. The
advance guard of the Wisconsin delegation has
put in an appearance. Ex-Postmaster General
Villas had been expected to participate in the
Whitney, Dickinson conference Of last night,
but owing to the death of his mother few DAYS
ago he will not join his followers until tomorrow
or Monday morning. The Wisconsin people
say that they are for Cleveland first, last and
all the time; that he is stronger in that state
than he has ever been before and that he can
command the large granger vote in the upper
counties that has always heretofore gone to the
republicans. They are just as strongly opposed
to Hill under any and all considerations as they
are favorable to the ex-President.
MIR. GRACE GIVES HIS VIEWS.
Ex-Mayor Grace, after consultation with
several of his fellow-leaders form New York,
made a careful statement Of his views on the
present situation late last night. "Harrison,"
he said, sis strong in New York on account Of
his conservative views on the currency. Cleve-
land is the ideal candidate to oppose Harrison.
He is the only man who can draw to himself
the Independent votes Of the state of New York.
He is q conservative man like Harrison. In
New York there are not less than 10000 or
$4,000 votes at presidential elections who do
not consider themselves attached to any party.
They will vote for Cleveland"
Asked about the Syracuse convention he an
swered: I'VE fail to see any man who will net
vote for the nominee of the party. The present
democratic association of the state Of New
York will be loyal to the Cleveland ticket, and
though cannot speak freely on the subject
believe Tamnany Hall will also faithfully sup
port the ticket if Cleveland be nominated. I
am even satisfied that Cleveland will be enthu-
siasticaly supported in Brooklyn"
HOW MR. WHITNEY PUTS IT.
~ L. -
last night decided that q number of those who
took part in its deliberations should call upon
the chairman Of each delegation and get him to
make declaration as to the way his delegation
| intends to vote. After a studied estimate the
conclusion was arrived at that Cleveland
had at least $50 votes. including
those instructed and' uninstructed dele
gatss- Ex-Secretary Whitney in an inter-
view said: II have been in the two big fights
the Tilden campaign Of 1876 and the Cleveland
campaign of 1888. But in each of these 1t wns
| simply question of a majority, and in that re-
spect it differed from this. With regard to
Cleveland, now, there is no question Of his ma
jority. 1t is simply matter Of the two-thirds."
ANTI-HILL TALK cHEERED.
| Senator C. E. Walker, who halls from Senator
Hills district, addressed large crowd Of dem
ocrsts at the Cleveland headquarters last night
Senator Walkers arguments were cheered
wildly. He informed the crowd that seven
eighths Of the people in Hills district are for

| tinued Walker. "Tammany does not hope to
nominate Hill and it would not if it could.
Tammanys whole scheme is to get Flower out
of the governorship and thus have Sheehan sue
coed him. The Tammany people are only wait
ing to unite all the anti-Cleveland elements on
some western man and then secure Flowers
nomination for the vice presidency. Flower
will accept it all right, but he would a great
deal rather be governor Of New York than take
second place on the ticket after being 80 promi-
nently mentioned for Arst"

in the strong Blaine district Is grea. disap-
