Pittsburg, about o'clock this morning,
consisted of Il Pullman palace
cars, was probably the handsomest
turnout that ever went to a national gather,

interior of each coach was profusely deco

dining car and express car, and all were

The Unit Rule Not to Be Enforced.
The Pittsburgers like their eastern asso-
ciates are all avowed Cleveland men. Secre-
tarv Harrity, who will head the Pennsvl-
vania delegation, did not accompany the
party to Chicago. He went with New York
friends. Mr.. Harrity's friends, however,
announced this morning that there would
be no effort made to enforce the unit rule in
the convention. 1t was positively stated
that Cleveland would beyond question get
5S of the 66 delegates from this State.
j. NJ. Guffey, ex-senator Wallace, ex-
United States Solicitor George A. jerks,
Congressman Mutchler and several others
occupied a special car on the Columbia ex-
press, which preceded the Pittsburg delega-
tion by 10 minutes. The Guffey party
claimed that they would vote for Mr.. Cleve-
land at least on the first ballot. 1t was
hinted last night, however, that the Guffey
people will not remain with the Cleveland
banner longer than they can help.
The Guffev people also claim that Mr..
Harrity has greatly overestimated his
strength with the PENNSYLVANIA delegation
