THE DEMOCRACY. FOB A SIKOK AT CHICAGO , CHICAGO , Juno 17. The possibility of a longer session of the National Democratic con vcntion than has been expected has caused the sub-committee of the national democratic com- initteo to take steps to-day for emergencies. The commltoeo mot at the Palmer house this morning , there being present Committocmun Gaudy , Kelly , | ViIa , Brown and Hnm. Tht only ono absent being W. D. Scott , of Penn eylvanla. The question of printing tickets came up. Mr. Goudy said it was impossible to tell how long the convention would last ; hence it was difficult to decide how many sessions should bo printed on each ticket. Kel ly thought that tlio convention would not hold TEN HUSSION'S. Brown said that everything depended upon Now York. If that stnto came hero n unit for the candidate the convention wotdd bo brief. otherwise it would be long. It was decided that preparation was necessary for the emer gency , and that the subject of the number of admissions should bo further considered. It was discovered that in making plans for seat ing the delegates calculation had been made on the basil of 802 , thus counting the eightenn delegates from thn ten itories out of seats. It had been thought the territorial delegates could bo seated among the alternates , but Mr. 13rown revived a resolution passed by the na tional convention in Washington giving them seats on the floor of the convention , and it was decided that the number of delegates' Beats should bo increased from 803 to 820. THE "EMIROEXOI" which the committee seeks to prepare for is that the convention may bo prolonged by a failure to agree on a candiu to. If Now York has not decided on n , man , ono of the committee - too said , it was probable that the west would endeavor to name him. A long battle would , in his judgment , bo provoked , and Tildcn would very likely be nominated. BOOMING CJjF.VEIjAND. CHICAGO BDHINK33 ME.V DOING IT. CHICAGO , Juno 27.
