DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONS.
Governor Pattison for a Non-In-

HARRISBURG, Pa, April l1.-Ii
is reported that Governor Pattison
Is using bis influence to prevent in
slructions for Cleveland by the
Democratic state convention next
Wednesday, in the belief that his
prospects for the nomination for
president would be promoted by
non-action in this matter. The
governor paively states that the dele
gates TO the Democratic national
convention should not be instructed.
Nearly all the county conventions
In Pennsylvania are on record for
Clevels nd. The democracy of the
Keystone state is stirred to an Ut
usual degree because Of the peace
conferences between Governor Patti
SIN and ex-senator Wallace. They
net this week at he executive
mansion, ind, it is said, the meet
ing was brought about by the gov
eInor, because he desires a united
party in the state, in order that his
chances for presidential honors shsll
not be dimmed by factional fights.
Senator Wallace will attend the
convention Wednesday. He is OPP
posed to Cleveland and against Hill
which leads the Democrats here TO
believe that he will not interfere
with the Pattison boom.

THE FALL ELECTIONS.
Some Speculation on the Result in
Rhode Island.

NEW YORK, April 1.-THE Tri-
bune says: "From the East comes
light. Little Rhode Island is large
enough to deal the free traders a
stunning llow. The hope that
Cleveland and reform will carry
the Eastern states is buried under a
plurality of 2079 in a small state,
where the Democrats had plurality
of 44l9 in 1889. In the light of re-
cent events presidential estimate
of some value can be made of this
election. The new appointment
gives TO the South l59 ele ctoral votes,
to the East III, and to The West 168,
the total being 444, viii b z23 to elect.
The South must retain all of its own
votes, and secure GA votes from the
N orth; bat if the South carries New
York with 36 votes, New Jersey
with 10, Connecticut with 6, and
Indiana with 15, or 81 Northern
votes in all, it will be still in the
minority, if it loses one small South
ern state as West Virginia with 6
votes, or Florida with 4. If Con-
necticut, New York, New jersey,
Indiana, Iowa and Montana be
classed as questionable with their
Democrats might elect if they could
carry all these and prevent a loss of
more than Is votes in the South, but
the chance that all these Northern
states can be carried by the Demo-
Gratis seems decidedly smaller than
the chance that the Alliance will
cost them more than Is Southern
votes"
