SILVER MEN FOR GROVER
A Big Wager Laid That He Will
Win,

CHICAGO. June 22.-The silver states
delegations were counted on by the
anti-Cleveland men to make up 46 Of
the votes opposed to Cleveland. The
sentiment of the silver men against
Cleveland was and still Is very strong.
but there were signs of o recession to-
day, and the talk among some Of the
Colorado and Wyoming delegations was
not so pronounced against Cleveland as
it was day or two ago. The silver
men realize that the snow for securing
the insertion of silver plank is very
slim, and Sam p. Berry, twice Cleve-
land elector from Kentucky, but now
Of Colorado, said today that the demo-
Gratis from his state would support
Cleveland if he Is nominated. Several
other silver states delegates and demo-
Gratis voiced the same sentiment.
Mr.. Berry took several bets
today that Cleveland would be
nominated and, further. that he
would be elected. So confident were
the Cleveland men esrly today that
they were willing to bet bg money at
odds of 100 to 70 on Cleveland's nomi-
nation. and one bet of 5000 even is
said TO have beei made by two demo.
Gratis that Cleveland will be nominated
and elected. One of the men-he who
took the Cleveland ends silver man
of Idaho.

The band, finding Dixie" SO popular
in the morning. tried that air over
again several times III q medley OF
other tunes, ana each number drew
out answering yells.
New YorK's entrance was greeted
with cheers, antlcipatory OF coming
scrimmage. Horace Boles came
in accompanied by the Iowa "tall''
like a highland chieflaln.
After the Boxes men had settled
down somebody in the galleries shouted,
"Hurrah for Cieyeiancw which started
cheering, neither loud nor long contin-
ued.
Chairman Wilson took his seat at
5:l5. bat simply for the purpose OF
enabling Secretary Bell to announce
kilograms for delegates, which he did
in characteristic fashion, winding up
with the invitation, "Come and get
'em, gentlemen, my page Ia sick."
Two minutes later the new zinc gavel
raped to order, but 1t was slow IN
coming and 90 was business. 1t was
fully three minutes before the conven-
ton was called upon to listen to any
thing else except the band. An inno-
vation in the usual course of proceed
ings was made by the chairman calling
upon another reverend gentleman for
q second prayer in the same days pro-
ceedings.
The clergyman selected for the ser
vice was the Rev. Thomas q. Green of
Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
Mr.. Green wore full black. He is =
tall man with a well trimmed jet black
beard. He spoke with penetration
that should be the envy of some of the
orators who had addressed the conven-
ton.
He prayed that they might choose a
man OF "clean hands, pure heart, one
who is above all selfish ambition, one
whose aim will be his country and his
God"
The Iowa people in the galleries ap-
plauded the "Amen."
Their the band struck up "My Coun-
try. Ills of Thee"
Then there was pause which was
broken by some one in the galleries
proposing three cheers for Cleveland,
which the people all about him gave to
an accompaniment of Kisses from the
floor.

situation today Fred A. Fuller, Jr., of
the Tilden club, New York, remarked:
I'VE have had no representation, you
might say. in the past two years IN q

fact that 80 per cent OF our people
favor Cleveland as against Hill. The
nomination of Cleveland would create
great enthusiasm through the state and
nation, and in NY Judgment he viii

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, Dec. o. The president
and his family returned tonight from the
sad errand OF burying his iather-in-law,
Rev. DR.. Scott, who died at the white
house last Tuesday afternoon. The death
OF DR.. Scott put stop to work on the
presidents annual message 10 congress
and 1t was at first feared that the delivery
of the message would have to be delayed
lew days, but with the aid of the men,
bers Of the cabinet 1t IS now expected that
the message, which will contain about
$1,000 words, mostly devoted to review
of the excellent work of the administra-
ton, will be ready not later than next
Tuesday.
From the talk OF senators and represen-
tatives, many Of whom are already here,
it is apparent that the session OF congress
which begins next Monday is to be more
interesting than had been generally sup
posed. Some democrats are already ex-
pressing the fear that the republican SEN
ate may take up and pass the pop-gun
tariff bills passed by the house at the last
session, placing wool and other articles on
the free list, which, If signed by the presi-
dent, would make that treasury deficit
which democratic success at the polls has
made strong probability for the next fis-
cal year, an absolute certainty. The fears
are, however, groundless; the republican
senators are too patriotic to vote against
their honest convictions merely TO add to
the troubles, which already promise to be
| grea, enough, heaven knows, Of the dem.
ocralic administration and congress.
II II be true as stated here, and general.
ly believed, that Mr.. Cleveland has select
ed ex.Secre,ary Fairchild, who took a
prominent part In the New York "antl-
snapper" movement, for his secretary Of
the treasury, it is not likely that the Tam
any. Hill combine will get member Of
the cabinet, as 1t Is not believed that New
York will have more than one representa-
tive In Mr.. Cleveland's cabinet, owing to
the number OF other states already de-
manding recognition because they voted
for Cleveland,
II the democrats who are clamorlng for
an extra session OF the tiitythird congress
continue 10 gain recruits at the present
rate, Mr.. Cleveland will find II difficult 10
refuse their demands, whatever he may
think about It. Speaker Crisp, although
be processes publicly TO be undecided, Is
IN reality working US hard as he knows
how to bring about An extra session. II Is
pure, unadulturated sel6shness with him
He wants u be speaker again and, having
been a Hill man, he fears that II the elec.
tion OF speaker be postponed until the reg
ular session Mr.. Cleveland will have an
opportunity TO make combinations that
would result In the election Of a Cleye.
land speaker. The latest aud most sordid
argument yet advanced for an extra ses-
sion Is that the democrats could then ad.
nit New Mexico and Arizona 10 statehood
and have four more democratic senators
at the opening Of the regular session
making them independent Of the votes oi
the third party senators.
