ILLINOIS IS UNCERTAIN.
Bland May Not Get the Entire
Vote of Governor Altgeld's
Delegation.


CHICAGO, ILL, July 5.-Govern6r Alt
geld did not bring the Illinois delegation
to formal vote on a Presidential candi-
date to-day, as expected. The Bland men
were disappointed and trife uneasy over
the situation as it rested tonight, after
two meetings and two adjournments of
the delegates during the day. The trouble
lies mainly with the anti Bland men of the
Cook County (Chicago) delegation. There
are fourteen of them who do not favor
Bland and prefer Boies almost to a man.
The Bland men of the delegation excuse
the failure of the two meetings to take
definite action by saying that some of the
delegates who are for Bland did not arrive
to-day, and, as the full delegation was not
present, it was deemed advisable not to
take poll of the delegates until to-mor-
row. The claim of the Bland men of the
deleg gation has been that thirty of the
forty-eight were with them, but there
were not that number at the Sherman
House to-day.
The first caucus was called for 10 o. clock.
Governor Altgeld presiding, and immedi-
ately adjourned to s o'clock in the even
ing. At that time. after the Governor had
conferred with his confidential men, a
meeting was called informally and an
agreement was soon reached to adjourn
until tomorrow morning, when the alb
sentees will be on hand. The Boies men
had repre- esentatives outside the headquar-
ters, and Secretary Walsh of the Iowa
State Committee said he regarded the out
look as favorable to Boies He showed
the United Press some kilograms from
Southern and Western delegates on their
way here which stated that poll showed
some to be Boies supporters who had been
classed in the Bland column.

YOUNG RErTGEk, FUNERAL,
One Of the Most Imposing Pa0eanss Evet
Seen ifs Cleveland,

CLEVELAND, OHIO. July s. The
funeral of William Rettger, the striker
killed at the Brown Hosting Works, was
the most imposing funeral pageant ever
given laboring man in Cleveland. There
has been but one occasion when there was
a larger procession and greater crowds
the funeral of Garfield. To-day by actual
count 10000 men formed the funeral cor
tege. The funeral services were held in
the church Of the Immaculate Conception.
A conservative estimate places the num-
Der of spectators about the church and
along the line of march to the cemetery at
100, 900. The procession moved quietly
and save for the dirges played by the
many bands, no sound save the tread of
feet broke the quiet.
The troops are still under arms.

SUCCESS IS IN SIGHT.
Bryan Men Confidently Make
This Claim.
ABSOLUTE CONTROL is ASSURED
They Are Positive That Bryan viii Be
Nominated-Are Making vigorous
Efforts.

ST. LOUIS, July 2l.-The Bryan man.
ayers confidently claimed this morning
that they had passed the Rubicon, and
their control of the convention was prac-
tically assured. There are conditions
and details yet to be worked out, but
they believe they have won the main
victory, the nomination or Endorsement
of the Chicago ticket. An attempt of
some Populists to force the withdrawal
of Sewall and the nomination of a Pop
ulist for vice-president had been de-
feated by the stand taken by Bryan's
friends, and the positive answer of
Chairman Jones, of the Democratic ma
tional committee, that such a thing
could not be considered
Notwithstanding the confidence of the
Bryan managers, however, they will not
relax their efforts. They have a most
complete organization, and every man
has instructions for today. They will
canvass every incoming delegation and
keep up the work OF proselyting among
those already here. Although they
claim victory, they believe there will
be bolt of the radicals, and, paradox
ical as it may seem, this is what some
of the most level-headed desire. The
Democratic managers certainly are not
ayerse to a split which will carry out OF
the convention the extreme men. They
claim that the allegiance of some OF
these men could do the ticket infinitely
more harm than good. The battle, OF
course, will come on the floor Of the
convention, and no one now doubts that
there will be a general display of bad
blood.
