The quarrel about it will iriu son ABILITY Go to the floor in the convention, for under the present programme tbeeOert to break tbp unit rule as to Paansylvama and Illinois is to De pressed. Tbe difficulty may bo precipitated in the adoption of the report of the Committee oa Rules, or it may come up during tho balloting. Ex-eoator Wallace will lead the battle to knoek tbe pernicious regulation out ia Pennsylvania.

The Illinois delegation may cut the bonds that bind them to-morrow or Tuesday. Tbe failure of. th delegation to take action at its meeting last Bight is accepted as a good indication by the Anti-Cleveland men. Every hoar's work is cultivating a sentiment against ebokina off delegates by the unauthorized and untenable action of State conventions. The office holders are already alarmed about Illinois.

A break in that State would aadly cripple Mr. Clerelaad. A division in Pennsylvania would la all probability be fatal to bim. a MIOKIOBT SCB VST. There has been a proposition, almost reaching the dignity of a movement, to unify the Ohio delegation on one me a.

vn those delegates who are not enamored of Governor Campbell were willing to vote forhya on the first ballot, provided the whole forty-six votes go that way. They would rather do this than give Cleveland twelve or fifteen votes. Campbell, no doubt startled by the fate of McKinley. and possibly baring visions of a Cabiaet Position under Cleveland, has declined to go into tbe movement. It is now possible that the forty-six votes will go to Boies, though it has not ret been determined, aad will not be till to-morrow.

The scheme ia to keep Ohio from getting any thing for the Buckeye State. Kv York is poiko 4 soon r.AL Of coquetting. Lieutenant-Governor Shee-ban and several other Hiil Democrats made overtures to the Indiana delegation to-day. The Meosier aelegatee were urged to east their thirty votes solid for Gray oa tbe first and were encouraged to expect that New York would immediately follow with seventy-two votes fur Gray. Under -this stimulus the Indianians are seriously considering tbe propriety af caucusaie and adopting tho nnit rule.

Tho Gray men are in the majority, and they claim that the reaoluUoaa adopted by the Deaaoeratic State Convention give them authority to proceed ia that maaaer. An organisation at Anti-Cleveland men from all tho States ia now la progress, and the situation to-niaht ts much more cheerful than it was tweatr-fear hours ago. 8. E. J.

This is a proposition which strikes dismay to the nearly, or quite, one third of the delegate WHO RATI BgXArSBO OUTBIDS Of the Cleveland camp. A t'ockaey Kew Yorker can not bear to bo away from his haunts ia New York so lone. What man the Clevelsnders mesa to take bp for Vice- President is probably net definitely known to themselves: at Irani, not to all of that circle. They are playing Meantime for the Vice-Presidency with several of the States, and this aires them another hold noon clusters ot delegates.

But as he wss rejected last time for old Tfr.

Would seem to hare expectations of some sort. They might go as far as the Pacific coast. If Cleveland be nominated he will need no Presidential accessory like Whitelsw Reid to put revenue iuto the campaign. The Whitney combination and the Faircbild's Jordan banking combination Would dooll that work: As to irregularity, who can throw it up to another and not plead guilty himself. Mr.

June 19. The day closes with Cleveland still strong in the, lead. Those marshaled nader his banner are not to be distracted by ths cry 4hst ho can not be elected, riia hosts stick to him aa an idol, preferring to go down in a sentimental campaign rather than seek another candidate. Ths elements of 'Opposition are strong, but inchoate. There are too inaay lightning-rods which seek tho Cleveland good-will if be can not avail.

There are but two forces agaressively and actively aatagoniatic one the following of Hill, the other the faithful who clamor tor Boies. Gorman aad Morrison fail ia direct attack, hoping, trusting that tbe Clevelaad following may ootna to them if they do aof irritate it, do it is that there is Trr no combibatiow Against the Ex-Preiideat. worthy ef tbe name. It is still iii the air. but intangible.

The later hours may develop some crystallization in favor of a candidate epea and pronounced. All ol to-day the effort has been to throw Gorman openly aud actively into' the battle. Gorman as aa open candidate makes havoc aaioag the Clereland forces iu the South, and Tammnnv is ready to go to his support, but he holds back, feeling care-' felly the greuad. His attitude is oae of negation rather thaa direct asgreasioa. but Clereland is not yet ttominatea.

The very best figures still leave him 100 rotes short of the needed two Ihirds. 11 is point of vantage though is ia the large following be bind him. It ia the arithmetic of the situation which makes the impression with too timid and the eiass who want to land In tho winning eamp. Betweea sow Aite TWBrTY-rotra boobs Lsa oa Some understanding will bare to be reached or Clerelaad will win. There most be a concentration of tho forces upon aom.

candidal, a do a whom, when tho shake-ap eotwea. there can bo a point of rally. As tho light now sheds Gorman seeau to be the man. but he is not yet an avowed candidate. TheCe onreatioa will have aa theepeaiag skirmisn tbe settlement of a serious ojare-tioa: It is whether the State baa the right to Instruct iu Congressional delegates.

Under such affirmative view Illinois and Pennsylvania are to be voted as a nnit. Bat there sre elements fa both which rebel. It is a question never before raised in a Domoeratie National assembly. It was raised In tho Republican Convention which nominated Roscoe Conkling. Chairman at ths New York, delegation, boeaose or instructions, as beWaimod.

Thsre are too many Riahmonds in the field. Whitney is hers open for Clevelaad and hopeful for himself. Morrison is ia a condition similsr. Carusis is not averse to preferment, though more ag gressive than tbe two first named. Hoies is openly thrown as a gauntlet in the Clevelaad camp.
