sprung up in the person Of w. @. Owens
OF Kentucky, who is being backed by
Henry Watterson. Stevenson has been
taking things very easy, but this morn
ing found it necessary to 90 to work for
the place. The selection of Owens,
while not antagonistic to Cleveland, will
be less favorable to him than General
btevenson's. The principal objection to
Stevenson is the fact that he was sent to
congress by the Greenbackers some
yeass ago. On the other hand, Steven
ton is personally very popular.

HoosIER DELEGATES DIVIDED.
Tbs Indiana delegation is somewhat
divided on the question of the advisa-
bility Of pushing Gray's candidacy, and
alively time is expected at the caucus
ofsthat delegation. An effort will be
made to swing the delegation solid for
him.
Chairman Taggart, of the Indiana
state central committee, has issued a
call for meeting of the Indiana delega-
ton Monday morning, when it will be
decided how they will vote. Taggart
admitted that the delegation was some
I what divided as to policy, but thought
complete understanding would be
reached at Mondays meeting.
William E. English, of Indianapolis,
tho vice. presidential candidate with
Hancock, it is believed, represents the
views of the Cleveland men OF
Indiana. He said he reckoned
on twelve votes for Cleveland
from Indiana on first ballot and eighteen
for Gray. When asked as to the proba-
ble outcome, English said he thought
Cleveland would be the nominee, though
he would not risk a prediction at this
stage of the game. If Cleveland and
Gray were both found unavailable, he
thought the Indiana delegation would
support Palmer of Illinois. w. A. Gull
lop of Vincennes, Gray delegate from
Indiana, said Gray was q serious candi-
date, and would be nominated by SEN
at09 Voorhees, on behalf of the state of
Indiana; that Indiana would stay with
him az long az there was q possible
cbence that he might be nominated.
| Oh Hop estimated Gray's vote at thirty.
THE aoRMAN MOVEMENT.
Xhe Goyman movement received an
imretus this afternoon by the arrival Of
q tos 6rman, with party Of Mary.
I iBtnd delegates. .Cha senator fiatlysre.
fused NtQ discuss th6political situation.
He said, regarding the use Of his name !:
s'Nobody is authorized to say anything
for mes / cannot help what the people
will say"
Ex-Governor Brown Of Maryland said !:
"There is strong friendliness for Cleve-
land in Maryland, but If reasonable
chance is seen, TO nominate favorite
son, the Maryland people expect the
delegation to do, its duty. But Mary
land has no candidate, and the delegates
will counsel with the Democracy of the
country upon the question of the NOM
inee." fa ssaa y
In the meantime it is evident that a
great deal of work is being done for
German, chiefly. perhaps, from New
York headquarters. Not enough dele
cations are yet on hand to make mis-
sionary work worth the trouble of or
ganizing, but it seems to be understood
at Cleveland headquarters that either
German, Boies, Morrison, Palmer OF
Russell will get the necessary help from
the Tammany directors to encourage
their supporters to continue the fight.
Neither German nor any of his friends
will admit that he is candidate, but
the fact remains that his name was be-
ing discussed on every hand today.
| THE UNCERTAINTY OF ILLINOIS.
The uncertain attitude of the Illinois
delegation is still the subject of specula'
ton, and only one thing seems deter
mined. That is that the delegation will
vote as unit, according to lnstruc
tione, but upon the question as to what
candidate 10 to receive the vote of the
state, there IL q great difference Of opin-
ion. 1t is manifest that there will be
considerable dispute as to the number
| of ballots Palmer is to receive before the
delegation turns to another love. Col
VIM. T.. Morrison has many friends in
the Illinois delegation, and these gentle
men believe that If an early opportunity
should be afforded, Morrison would de-
velop latent strength in the south, by
giving him the solid support of Illinois
on the third or fourth ballot. As thu
friends Of Morrison and Palmer have
long been antagonistic. it is not likely
that the Palmer people will be willing
i to vote for Morrison at all. The Illinois
delegation will meet informally tomor
row tonight to discuss the situation.
BIssELL HUsTLMG FOR GROVER.
/ w. F, Bissell Of Buffalo, Cleveland
former law partner, il here hustling fol
Grover. He says Cleveland is the log
ical candidate in view of the nomination
| OF Harrison on high tariff platform
and that he is the strongest candidate
In New York, because he can carry th,
! Independent vote, which is very large il
that state. He declares that it is th'
officeholders Of New York state and cit,
who are pushing the candidacy Of Sen
ator Hill.
KENTUCKY's FAvoRTTE SON.
The arrival Of Carlisle today caused
renewal Of the talk that Kentucky woul'
