crs of tho ex-president's candidacy, as
expressed both before and after the eau
Gus of the delegation, this action finally
settles tho question of his nomination.
The scenes in the Sherman house dur
ing the caucus were vivid reminder of
those which We're enacted at the Lindell,
st. Louis, four years ago when the New
York delegates We're called upon to de-
eide between Thurman and Gray as the
vice presidential candidate, The long
corridor on the second floor down the
stairway into the lobby and thence out
into the street We're packed in one solid,
peIspiring mass. There were represen-
tatives of a score of delegations; Cleve-
land men, Hill men and German men
all waiting with the most intense inter
est the outcome of the caucus. Just as
soon as ex-Congressman Stevens had
called the caucus to order Sheehan sent
request that his delegation might be
heard and reply was returned that an
audience would be given them in a
short time Then the fight inside began
in earnest. The anti -Cleyelandites, WI Il

the two factions, submitted motion
that no action ON the question of pref
erences should be taken until morning.
The pfevious question was ordered and
like fash the resolution was defeated
by vote of 20 to Is. Determined to
follow up their advantage the Cleveland
men, through J. H. Eckles, of Ottawa,
who was stenographer to Daniel La
mont when the latter was private secre-
tary to Cleveland at Albany, submitted
a resolution endorsing the ex-president
and instructing the delegation to vote
for him on the first ballot as unit, and
simultaneously half score of the oppo-
sition We're On their feet denouncing the
resolution and its supporters. The roll
call was then commenced and the last
name had barely been called when the
sergeant alarms poked his head out of
the door and announced to the waiting
crowd 81 for Cleveland, II against him.
A cheer went up from those in the i'm
mediate neighborhood. Like flash the
message went through the crowded
corridors and lobby and down to the
street, and thousands that had been
anxiously waiting for the news scat
tered to spread it far and wide.

CHICAGO, June 20.-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 majority Of the dele
CATION for their candidates for the effect

as Cleveland ID, Hill 8. Both
sides wanted more decisive and
significant showing and at a meeting of

Congressman Tracy and Congressman
BourIze 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
liable 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 to 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
as large as had been calculated, and
that, therefore, he had been abandoned
and that his friends had about decided
to rally the anti-C Cleveland strength
To the Roies Standard,
By this means and with the New York
vote going solid to Hill it will be posi-
bic to delay nomination for an indefin-
tie 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 Brice's influence, be brought
into line for Western man. More than
this it was limited, although not stated
as a fact, that Boies could count on
good proportion of New York's support
in the event of its being found that Hills
nomination was an impossibility. The
Iowans have since been notified that the
South Carolina delegation had decided
20 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 if the German strength
can be swung to Boies he will receive
about 150 votes on the first ballot.

least least three respects-in size, in
ugliness and in the misfortunes which
ternally the building is only mammoth
dry goods box constructed of the
roughest lumber, rooted over with tar
paper and approached from the outide
by broad flights of wooden steps; one
for the delegates and two at each end
for the SPECTATORS: The canvas roof
originally on the building was torn into
shreds some days ago, Since then the un-
protected interior has been several times
thoroughly drenched by rain storms
which spoiled the decorations, but the
decorator in charge, has replaced his orn-
lamentations as fast as it was washed
away, and the building contractor, by
doubling his force and working day and
night, has now completed the roof so as
to effectually shut out any future storms
From the center of the roof inside
broad strips Of bunting radiate to the
sides where they are enclosed by still
broader tier of the same material. Over
the main platform is a four post arch,
handsomely decorated, bearing on the
pillars heroic sized busts of Andrew
Jackson and Stephen A. Douglass, and
extending all around the rear Of the hall
are twenty half length, life sized por-
traits of distinguished Democrats now
dead.
The arrangement Of the body of the
hall is much like that of the Minneapo.

a remote possibility Of defeating Cleve-

their friends acknowledge that there is
nothing in sight. There is, Of course, a

Stevenson for vice president, but he is

compensation. Indiana will cast a

Cleveland men will make Gray the
