THE CONVENTION PROGRAMME.
Ex-President Harrison VIII Speak I'm
the MOrning.

The arrangements at the hall for the
convention are all complete Everything
possible, consistent with the size of the
hall, has been done TO make 1t accommo-
date the immense crowd. The seating ca
pacity has been enlarged to the extent that
every available inch of space is occupied
with extra chairs. Within the inclosure
reserved for delegates no one will be ad-
mitted except the delegates and candidates.
This rule will be strictly enforced by the
sergeant-at-arms Harry Mounts. Upon
the enforcement of this rule will depend to
large extent the length of the conven-
ton, it will be impossible for the chair
man to hear the votes as announced IL the
delegates are moving around the hall.
The State committee expected the de-
mand for tickets TO be very large, but it
has exceeded the members expectations by
fully 100 per cent. At S o'clock last night
all the tickets had been given out. and the
demand had only just begun. Hundreds Of
good Republicans who came here expecting
to get in the hall were necessarily dsap-
pointed by not being able to get tickets
Secretary Seeds, of the State committee,
said last night that he had no doubt that
the demand for tickets was sufficient 10
I'LL hall that would seat ten Thousand
people.
All tickets, except stage tickets, will be
recognized only at the front door. and stage
tickets at the Deiaware-street entrance
All persons holding press tickets Will enter
at the front door.
The first thing when the convention Is
called TO order Will be an address by the
chairman, followed by General Harrison
pected that balloting will begin soon after
IL o'clock.

county, among which are County Clerk
Greene and a number Of the active work.
ers in Republican politics Of the county.
They have not been idle and claim their
work has yielded some results.
In the race for Auditor there Is much
speculation and a general belief that It
will require a number OF ballots TO decide
upon a man. Several combinations were
mentioned during the day yesterday, and
in the list nearly every candidate for the
Office was mentioned. All OF the candi-
dates have strength in their respective To-
calities and it seems that 1t may be a
question of endurance TO a large extent
in the convention. The location Of the
candidates with reference to the location
Of candidates lower down the ticket may
have some effect upon the race.
In the race for Treasurer Scholz and Wild
are more frequently mentioned in sug-
gested combinations, but Levy has strength
and his friends are claiming for him that
he will surprise his opponents in the con-
vention.
In this county the greatest interest has
all along and still centers in the race for
Attorney-general There are three candi-
dates from the county for the office, and
the outside candidates are looking on at
county and laying plans TO try and capture
the vote of either when there is break,
If there is one. The other candidates for
the office outside this county each have
considerable strength.
When it gets down 10 the race for Clerk
of the Supreme Court IL is admitted that
absolutely nothing can be predicted The
large number of candidates for the office
come from various portions Of the State,
and the nomination may perhaps be infu-
enced by the location of the candidates
that are nominated before the convention
gets as far down the ticket that office.
In the shuttle for the more important Of
fees, so considered, the candidates for Su-
perintendent of Public instruction are not
receiving a great deal Of attention, but
their friends are taking advantage Of this
and making fights for them.
Judge Cardwell, Of New Albany, thinks
General Packard, for Secretary of State,
will have votes on the first ballot from at
least fifty-seven counties. His total vote
on the first ballot will be about 450, thinks
Judge Cardwell He is the only soldier can
ddate for Secretary of State.

at least a hundred men left the ranks and
started across the country in various direc-

a rapid dissolving OF the enthusiasm which

Kelly disclaimed all knowledge of the de-
sertion, and asserted that he knew OF but
ten or twelve men who had quit. but the
