The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1892-06-20

Bile, although no breaks have as
yee occurred in them, but the
statement of the Tammany men
Lnat Mr.. Cleveland cannot carry New
Xors has more weight with them, it is obvi-
! Gus as they come in, than it has with the
northern and Yves ern delegations
some irritation and impatience is
shown at the persis ent forcing of
New York local ouarrels ON the
national convention. Besides almost ale all
the senators and representatives who are
mere are talking up Senator German aud
Senator Carlisle as the southern candidates
ana Col. Morrison as the most preferable
man among the northeuers mentioned. If
the sha low OF Mr.. Cleveland was not over
all, both candidates and delegates, either
senator Gorman or Col. Morrison would
gettornidaole southern support.
HILL IN CONTEMPT.
Throughout all to-day's discussions outside
OF the Tammany headquarters con temptu-
GUS references TO the late candidacy of
David b. Hill were heard. II was strange
that the report that he had arrived early
thlS morning and was secreted at the Audi
torlum trying to revive his o1m at least
sufficiently to defeat Mr.. Cleveland was be-
heved, for his cause seemed sadly In
need OF his personal assistance. Gov.
Flower was doing nothing for it.
de was quietly indorsing the as
surances OF the ex-Hill men that the
Fiower-Boies combination, the M prison
Flower combination or any other which
mas the name OF Flower In it would be ac-
ceptable to him.
The enthusiasm Of everybody Except the
anti>Clevelaud mem from Capt. Whitney
and First Lieut. Harrity down, is in
marked contrast with the lack of enthusi-
asm at Minneapolis Even the anti-Cleve-
land men share the expectation Of victory
which inspires this feeling, for they
do not believe what they are
saying about Mr.. Clevelan1 any more than
they believe what they are saving about
Senator Hill. It is noteworthy that much
OF the serious talk in the delegations
ls about the vice presidency as though the
candidate for the presidency had already
been nomi oated. Cleveland and Boies Is
the most general and most popular ticket
Others are Cleveland and Gray aud Cleve-
land and Morrison and Cleveland and
Campbell.
WHITNEY's POSITION.
1t is not true that Mr.. Whitney, as COM
mander Of the Cleveland regular, has given
Mr.. Fnirchild, as commander OF the Clsve-
land militia, orders that the "anti-snappersn
must abandon their intention to make
formal contest before the convention It
would seem unnecessary to say so il it were
nos for the fact that the statement has been
SO positively made. 1t is based, Of course
on the we'll known fact that Mr.. Whitny
looks upon the Syracuse delegation as mex
pedient. Mr.. Whitney has, however, left
the counsel to be pursued by the members
OF the Syracuse delegation just where
1t had to be left entirely in themselves.
Tomorrow they will meet TO determine
their course. 1t 10 probable that ID will be
as indicated in my dispatch last night.
All the southern delegations except South
Carolina aud Ala anna have arrived. The
st. Louis delegation will be here in the
morning. They will all meet and listen to
the representations OF the Cleveland and
ansl-Cleveland orators, who are expected to
go from one headquarters TO another till
they have gone the rounds of the southern
delegations. The southern delegations. con-
slderIng the fact that their votes will nomi-
nate as we'll as elect the candidate, proposed
to sit judicially and determine after what
has been said whom they will support
However, both sides will be aided
by the prejudices Of the delegates.
A large ma ajority of them are, however.
for the man who is most likely to be nomi-
mated, which will give their votes to Mr..
Cleveland. They already say that Mr..
Cleveland is the nominee until the still
missing combination can be formed by
anti~Cleveland men. The Georgia delega-
tion, for example. Is claimed tonight as II
to 9 in favor Of Mr. Cleveland.
Hon. Fleming duBignon will probably be
elected chairman of the Georgia delegation
at to morrow's meeting.
An estimate made tonight by the Hill
managers gives Mr.. Cleveland 423 The
estimates of the ex-Presdent's friends gives
him 589. Senator Palmer returned to-
night. He said: 81 have come here to ask
the Illinois delegation not to antagonize
MIR. Cleveland, but to be consistent in obey
ing the wishes of the democrats of the state
of Illinois, and to fight for and help to
nominate him.
