Stran gers are arriving on every train to attend - tend the convention ; delegates , alter-1 nates , friends of candidates and news paper correspondents. The hotels are beginning to be crowded and the rotundas are filled all day asd far into the night with gentlemen discnatiBg the . situation and speculating is to the * . ! . JTipalooldne -t airaogen , vith v important mien , often accompanied by ladies , are to be seen in all parta of toe city , but chiefly about the busi ness centre and principal hotels. In the street cm , railroad trains , and everywhere one bears the convention discussed. The talk is generally good natured , with.apparent indifference as to which of the leading candidates wins. Occasionally ! however , an out- and-ont Blaine , Grant or Sherman man will give vent to his views in no uncertain language. Among the prom inent arrivals was Senator Pinchback , of Louisiana , a member of the national committee , and a strong Grant man. He. argues that the Grant bolters in Louisiana were justified because the central committee wai not allowed to pass upon credentials and make oul the roll before the convention met. The regular convention gave seven Gnrafdelegatesjliut Mr. Piuchback saya'tJJey'are'gourgintj the conven tion .wiili sixteen ' "ornone. . Gram could' carry Louisiana , Sonth Carolina , Florida and Yinjinia. Mr. Pinchback ia accompanied by a pleasant opoken Creole , named T. T. Allyn , who in dorsed his sentiments , except that he only claimed Louisiana and Florida. Ex-Governor Warmouth , who is al the Gardner House , takes a different view. He says Pinchbeck and Butler wanted to make people believe they controlled the state and could send _ a solid Grant delegation , when , when in fact they conld not. They did no live up to the agreement ; we wantec harmony aud hence planned the com | promise. We knew we could not give a single electoral vote , but hope to have some Influence in the nomination. Mr. Heusted , a politician from Brooklyn , expresses himself very positively , that the people of New York are opposed to Grant.

That they will take the management of affairs out of the sub-committee and prevent the ratifi cation meeting at the exposition building for Grant. It is reported that Secretary Reynolds , oi the exposition directors , has said that 'no political gatherings , Grant or "anti-Grant , " will be allowed iu th'e Exposition budding until after the convention. The executive com : raittec had formed thh determination last week when the application by anti-Grant men was made and refused. The contract with the national com mittee provided for the use of the building only for a convention. The committee was responsible for $4,000- 000 worth of property , and did not propose to let in any crowd that would , perhaps , bo disorderlyand un manageable. Nothing could compel the committees to recede from their posi tion , and they would use all the force necessary to enforce their decision.

Special Notice AND CAUTION It has come to my knowledge that certain would-be rival show men , having no reputation of their own , are making disrepu table efforts to avail themselves of the reputation which I have honestly earned during the past forty years , by kesping faith with the public , performing all my promises , and ADVERTIS ED NOTflINQ WHICH I 10 NOT EXHIBIT. Some of these dishonest fellows claim to be related to me , anc set reports afloat , in an under hand way , that I have an inter est in their petty shows , in order to give them a character which they do not merit , thus deceiving the public , and mating me re sponsible for exhibitions which are in no way worthy of public regard- Ifaw , I wish lo state , emphat ically , that I have no connsction with any show or exhibition in the world except my own and ONLY GREATEST S TOW on EAETH , which will exhibit in OMAHA , FRIDAY , JULY 30 , One Day Only , and -which merits and has re ceived the unqualified appro bation of the Press and Pub ic wherever it has been exhibit = d. I fear no rivalry. I recognize no opposition. I pledge my personal word and toy professional reputation that my GREATtST SHOW OH EARTH for this season is the beat ex hibition , in all its departments. I ever put before the public , and is , I repeat , the ONLY" ex hibition with which I am con nected , or in which I have any interest whatever. After leaving Chicago , my Greatest Show on Earth will visit the principal Cities and towns in Illinois , Wisconsin , Minnesotajowa , NEBRASKA , Colorado and Missouri , giving the same performances , with the same Novel Features and the same Programme as given in Chicago , New York , Brook lyn , Boston and other cities , where thousands were unable to gain admission , notwith standing the immense capacity of my vast Pavilions of latent French Water-Proof Canvas.
