the report is pretty general about the
hotel corridors. that Senator Quay has
joined the Mckinley forces the report
is vehemently denied by individual
members of the Pennsylvania delega-
ton who assert positively that the
Pennsylvania senator's will go before
h convention.
The New York delegation shows no
disposition as yet to climb upon h
Mckinley band wagon, and Governor
Morton's name will doubtless be pre-
scented to the convention. There is
unquestionably a strong undercurrent
against the nomination and consid-
cradle Roadway has been made today

ley's nomination car be prevented or
the first ballot, there is quite a general
belief that he will not be nominated at
all. In such an ven no one would
stand a better chance than Mr.. Reed.
The Mckinley men affect the greatest
confidence.

The party arrived here at 1890. this
noon. They at nee formed a process

military band marched to the Reed
headquarters at the Southern hotel.
They attracted no little attention, the
streets along their line of march being
crowded with people.
AS the line reached the Southern it
was received with a rousing cheer by
a crowd of the Reed men clustered on
the big balcony over the main entrance
which opens off from the Maine head
quarters room. This warm greeting
was vigorously responded to. and the
party passed into the hotel, up the
broad steps to the big corridor in front
nf the Reed headquarters room. Here
the members of the party gathered
around h Gleee Club and joined in
the chorus of a stirring campaign song
setting forth the superior merits Of

Weather Conditions and General Forecast

Washington. June 14.-The barometer
has risen rapidly from New York to
Florida, and slowly in all other districts
except on the southeast New England
coast. where it has fallen slightly. A de
preston of considerable energy is central
southeast of New England and is at
gales AT southeastern New England sta
tons. 1t is generally warmer throughout
the Central valleys and Southern states.
and cooler in New England and New
York and near Lake Superior. Heavy
rains occurred in southern New England
and eastern New York. and local showers
in Maine, Wisconsin and Minnesota. The
weather is clear, tonight. except in New
England. where it is cloudy with rain.
and the upper Lake region, where it is
partly cloudy.
Generally fair weather will continue
from the Gulf states northward over the

The great Hanna was busy lodging
about the corridors of the Southern
hotel, this evening, and entertaining a
procession of callers at the Mckinley
headquarters with the smiling aSsur-
ance that the Ohio statesman would
have nearly if not quite 600 votes on
the first ballot. There is reason to
believe. however, from the vigorous
work that is being done, tonight, by
the friends of the other candidates that
his sanguine expectations will fall con-
siderably short of that realization.
The Journal man made a short call
upon Hon. Joseph II. Manley. this even

ever. there Were only seven of us who
remained true to him.. The action of the
committee in these cases assures the Me-
'\inley forces that the committee
on credentials gives them the practical
control of the convention. The advantage
of this is very great to them. and places
the friends of other candidates at a heavy
disadvantage. In spite of this we shall
make the best fight we can and lone for
