much in doubt, delegates and spectators
began filing into the hall at II o'clock.
The Committee on Contested Seats was
still in session, and the leaders were
atill under cover-fixing up states, it was
|currently reported.
The declination of Mr.. Whitney had
given new life to Thacher's languishing
boom. The report was circulated widely,
and almost as widely believed, that
David B. Hill had come out natly and
firmly for that gentleman. George
Thacher. after interviews with some Of
the leaders, had announced that John
Boyd would get It on the first ballot"
The confident manner in which this an
nouncement was made created pro-
found sensation. for Thacher, 1t is con-
ceded. would not make SO good a race
as Gaynor, Hill or Whitney.
Just here rumor brought a new factor
In to help increase the confusion. This
runor took first place on the ticket
away from Greater New York by naming
Is Thacher's running mate the Hon.
Perry Belmont. of the metropolis.
This rumor, too. found credence, and
there seemed a possibility Of this

Is "the" slate, when another rumor
cropped out This time II was to the
eject that Senator David B. Hill would
arrange his cards so as to have it ap-
pear that the nomination was forced
upon him, and then gracefully accept.
Humor in this instance named Police
Justice Thomas F. Grady, the silver
longued, Of New York, as the nominator.
Right on the heels of this came rumors
w brigades. and It was impossible to
Keep track of them.
