having said that this would be done; but
in the absence of official assurance on
this score, the votes were not included
in the table. OF course there were none
counted from Iowa but the opinion was
expressed that before fhe ballot was
taken Governor Boies would release his
delegates from the pledge to support
him and that the Hawkeye votes would
go to swell the total for Cleveland. One
Of the gentlemen present at the hotel
said ''It has turned into "a rout; there
won't be enough of the others to make
it interesting" In view Of the fact that
the Cleveland vote is so largely predom-
mating it was decided not to contest the
election of w. c. Owens, of Kentucky,
as temporary chairman, but it was
further decided to make w. C. Wilson,
the famous West Virginia tariff reform
congressman, permanent chairman.
With this understanding the conference
adjourned.

Grover Gets the First State.

CHICAGO. June 2o.-According to the
position of Alabama at the head of the
list, strenuous efforts were made by the
managers Of the Cleveland and Hill
forces to secure a majority Of the dele
cation for their candidates for the effect
it will have upon the undecided dele
gates The vote has has been reporte d
as Cleveland 13, Hill g. Both
sides wanted q more decisive and
significant showing and at meeting Of
the delegation during the afternoon
Congressman Tracy and Congressman
Bourke Cochran presented the claims Of
Cleveland and Hill respectively. They
advanced the usual arguments and
whether due to them or not when the
Cleveland men were asked to assemble

to Governor Boies the information that
his boom had suddenly assumed form
idable proportions. The information
came from Senator Shields, the gov
ernor's political confident and manager,
and was to the effect that propositions
had come from both Senator Brice and
Henry Watterson looking 20 the throw
ing of the anti Cleveland strength TO the
Iowan. These propositions were brought
to Shields by confidential agents of Brice
and Watterson, who said that full can
vass Of the situation had developed the
fact that the German strength was not
that, therefore, he had been abandoned
and that his friends had about decided
to rally the anti-C Cleveland strength
To the Boies Standard.
By this means and with the New York
vote going solid to Hill it will be possi-
BILE to delay nomination for an indefn-
ite period and until it was finally demon
strated that it would be unwise to nom
mate Cleveland. Senator Shields was
also told that some of the uninstructed
who were claimed for Cleveland were
lukewarm in that direction and could,
through Brices influence, be brought
into line for Western man. More than
this it was limited, although not stated
as fact, that Boies could count on a
good proportion Of New York's support
in the event of it's being found that Hills
nomination was an impossibility. The
Iowans have since been notified that the
South Carolina delegation had decided
to cast thirteen votes solid for Boies.
This was one Of the first fruits Of the
dicker and it encouraged the Hawkeyes
to hope that the transfer might be af-
fected. According to Senator Shields it
is calculated that il the German strength
can be swung to Boies he will receive
about $50 votes on the first ballot.

Sidney Dillon.

One Of the last of the old style men
who became millionaires by hard work
and economy was the late president Of
the union Pacific road. Sidney Dillon
He began to earn his own living at seven
years cid and also to save money. He
earned a dollar week and his food. and
out of the dollar week he saved enough
in two years to buy horse and cart
The boy Of nine years old who has a
horse and cart that he earned himself
was not plentiful, even seventy years
ago. Mr.. Dillon's success depended
largely on his physical energy, of which
he seemed to have an inexhaustible sup
ply. He was accustomed to say that he
also owed it greatly to his singularly
happy and harmonious domestic life,
which enabled him always to find in his
home haven Of perfect rest. Although
he was eighty years old at the time of
his death, he was still man of uncom-
monty fine physical presence and ap-
pearance. No bodily ailment ever
downed him except the indigestion
which caused his death and which at
tackled him three months ago. 1t was
the sign Of the breaking up at last of the
grand machine which had served its
owners purpose so long. Here is q life

left in the first district, but with two
large counties, Clay and Chickasaw,
added. Kyle would be in the second
district, as now, with over half Of the
territory changed. None of the present
congressman reside in the proposed

new sixth district while Stockdale would
be in the seventh, with about one third
of the territory now in his district.
