CHICAGO , July 8. Certain members of the
cominitteo of arrangements for the democratic
convention profess to have dtacov ered a con
spiracy on the part of the friends of Benjamin
.Butler , to got up u grand demonstration for
"Tho Cock-Eyed Mon of Destiny'
with a view to nominating him by clamor
.and enthusiasm
A1TKH THE 8TVLK OV DLAINK'.S SELECTION ,
It H known that it ii tliu intention of the
trades a aembliei and labor unions to fjivo
Butler a rou ing welcome , but the invcstigi-
tion of the committed men is said to hava uc-
veloped further that an effort is to bo made to
take the > nthusiasm into the convention hall.
3 lovr this ia to bo done is not rotated by thu
committee men , but outsiders say that But
ler's friends arc in communication with dele
gates and others entitled to ticket' * , and that
they arc endeavoring to buy them at pretty
steep figures. Tiiis statement chimes with the
information that
THIS GENERAL' : ) D.VKIIKL
has already arrived at the Palmer house. It
is further given the air of plausibility by the
mysterious nets of Col. flyuipton , General
' . ' has at the
| Butler's agout. 1'lympton n room
iW Palmer house , but ho is seldom there. A pile
of papers and miscellaneous odds and cuds is
the only Indication of occupancy which grceta
the visitor to No. 21-1. Many call but fuw
find Plymptou in. Thcso who have watched
his movements report that he is in close con
sultation much of the time with
HECRETAllY H111VELT ,
of the recent nnti-monopply.'convputlon. Secre
tary Shiovoly has been in the city for several
weeks strengthening the intrenchments of the
labor and trades assembly fortifications.
Whatever truth thorp ia in these rumors , that
strong endeavor is being made to
TACK THE CONVENTION FOB ttVTLKH ,
those who liivo charge of tickets are re
doubling their vigiUnca and establishing an
extra watch on the channels through which
tickets are Riven out. The sergeant at anna ,
it is said , has been warned by the friends of
other candidates to increase his precautions
ngninst all conceivable means of ingress to the
hall. lie has reported that there is no possible
chance for cla-quers to get in save by ticket.
If they have ticket ? , Bright soya that ho lias ,
f course , no means of proventihg their en
trance. There appears to be no doubt that
stho tickets held by the Massachusetts delegates
will be placed where they will do the most
good.
CALIFORNIA'S ( JHOIGG.
KIKST THUIWAN NEXT.
CHICAGO , July 3. The California dclcra-
tion cnmo to Chicago to nominate Tildcn , if
possible. If it in not possible they will ufcu
their beat efforts to glvo the nomination to
Judge Tliurnmn. Their ntnto convention in
structed them for "Tildcn first , Tlinrman
nu\t , and Field never. " Mr. Tilden's letter of
-declination was received in the convention im
mediately after th 9 iuHtnictionu were given ,
but it wan not regarded. A conversation
with the delegates to-day revealed that they
would obey the instructions to the letter , mid
that they would not only
NOT \OTK rOU JUflTICi : KIKI.I )
but that they would use o\cry honorable
means to prevent his nomination , In pursu
ance of this resolution the headquarter- ! were
to-day oponad at thu P.ihn9r , and thu Califor
nia delegate being first on thy sco io , will
inaugjruto a campaign against Field amonir
the delegates as fast as they arrive. The ob
ject is to head elf the effort in hia behalf which
a party of his fi lends who arrlvp hero Friday
will commence. Explaining thia peculiar and
iinuHual opposition to a man who is not yet a
candidate , Nilea Seniles , one of the delegates
said , "Tho I'acific alppo people are at proount

CHICAGO , July 3. The gathering of the
democratic clans nt Chicago pees on but slow
ly. A number of t.cattorlnc' delegates from
distant points , nnd ono solid delegation , that
of Calfornia , arc1 hero , but as yet , tilings in the
local political world ore comparatively quiet.
The sub-committees on arrangements of the
national committee 1m o boon hard at work
liero for the past week , but so far their labors
have been all in the direction of arranging the
convention. The changes in the hall are all
but completed , and it Is expected that the
theater chairs for the delegates and the other
; cats will bo put in position to-night. It lias
been decided to
LIGHT TUB HALL WITH KLKOTRICITV ,
which will not only illuminate the building
bettor but insure a much cosier atmosphere.
W. II. Barrmm , chairman of the national
lommitteo , did notarrivo to-day as expected ,
but n ill be hero in the morning. Among the
passengers on the New York limited express
which came to-day wcro Daniel J. Manning ,
chairman of the Now York state committee ,
accompanied by Kdward Cooper and a dozen
other empire democrats , among whom are two
delegates. Mr. Manning said ho had not
como hero with music and bluster to nomi
nate Cleveland , but ho came as a democrat
who bcliuvod that the best interests of the
party would bo subserved by Mr. Cleveland's
nomination. According to
MANNING'S CALCULATIONS
Cleveland will have 48 or a majority of the
Now York delegation.
A meeting will bo held hero on Saturday
night , at which Cleveland's strength u ill bo
actually determined. IiufOrring to this propo
sed meeting Mr. Manning paid : "Wo do not
: > repose to hold this caucus unless all the dele-
jates are present. Wo have no desirutotako
nass judgment. Mr. Flower has members of
; ho delegation who will work to have him
laminated. Via have no objection to that
Mr. Flower is a good man , but wp do not
, Uink ha has as fair a show of carrying Now
York as Mr. Cleveland has. "
THK OALll-OHNIA UKLTXJATION
Drought word that from fifteen to twenty
prominent California democrats would bu
lieru Saturday to open elaborate headquarters
ind work in the interest of Justice Field.
The California delegates themselves , however ,
tiavo announced that they will inaugurate a
campaign against Mr. Field. Their best
efforts will be given to secure the nomination
of
TILDEN IN SPITE Or HIS LETTKH
but if that should prove impossible they
will work and vote as a unit for Thurman.
The national sub-committee requests that as
soon as the various delegations have perfected
their organization they will send a list of
their chairmen , vice presidents and commit-
tcornon to the national committee room at the
I'almer house and it is requested that eucli
notification bo sent in as early as possible.

THE KX-aOVEHNOK ON JJKMOCRAOV'fl TICKET.
From a L'ooria Special.
At the convention yesterday , when asked
about the national ticket , Governor Pulmor
said ho believed Governor Cleveland was the
coming man , but declared that he was not a
candidate for vice-president , and leant of all
would ho accept a nomination with Cleveland ,
who ought not to bo associated with EO old n

Hist on his taking the nomination. Ho had
