Chicago , THE DEMOCRACY. CHICAGO. July 7. The Bconos of activity about the 1'almor houao , which is at present the great national political center , were re newed early this moiuing. By S o'clock the main corridoraJJ of the hotel and thorough1 ftaroa loading up to it ware filled with great masses of people , which by their very num bers made progress of the cable cars and car riages \ery slow and at times well nigh im possible. In the dining rooms and cafe ? in the vicinity of the hotel was an army of men , Jiats in hand , waiting their turn for Beats at the breakfast tables. In fact the crush has now become so great as to inako comfort a matter of faint possibility and the discomfort has been greatly Increased by the fact that the headquarters ot thu party HAVE BEKN CENTKALIZKD instead of beinp divided and.scattorod as was the case with the ropu ican national conten tion. Still the crowds to be accommodated are much greater than at the first con mention , duo largely to the presence of the great march ing organizations , some of which resembled a full marching regiment by their number , and while it seemed probable last night that all had arrived on the scene of action , this morn ing witnessed the arrival of additional posts , \ delegates , clubs , parties and individuals with out limit , and as they moved directly upon thu hotels these places became , as the day wore on , inaccessible to every one except STALWART rusimis. The national executive committed hold a session this forenoon aud arranged tor distri bution of tickets and seating of delegates aud alternates. The national committee will be gin its sessions at noon to-day and the meetings - ings of the various state delegations began at 1 o'clock. . Ohio is the only state whoso meet ing is postponed as Into as 3 o'clock. The reason assigned is that some delegates ha\o not yet reported , but it is expected that a warm contest may occur in the delegation and it ? session Is postponed , it is claimed , partly owing to that fact. The Now York delegation wont into sessional 11 o'clock aud the Interest which centres in its action appears to actuate every one In attendance upon the convention. The out and out supporters of the Now York governor are greatly encouraged at the action taken by Kings county delegation , last night , in decid ing to support him. They oven go HO far a.s to nay that the nomination is practically settled , for of goes Kings county to goes the state nnd the whulo convention. CLKVELAXIl'ii HUl'TOIlTKIUi are working haid to off-sot the adverse effect of Kelly , Faulkner aud the other organi/ed opposition. At the Grand Pacific hotel McDonald talk is the loudest. Karly to-day another Indiana club , strong in numbers , came swinging into the hotel , waving the McDonald banner and cheering for their man. The Indianaiis are tilving hard to impress others that ha is the most available man and will heal all strife. Among the delegations arriving at the Palmer housu this morning were a number of Mary land men and the remainder of the delegates from Minnesota , West Virginia , Virginia , Louisiana , Tennessee and Mississ ippi. The nuartors of the various states presented - sentod the view of wearied man Bleeping in chairs , after a night of vigil. The principal work of the national coinmittoo will bo to narao n temporary chairman , William F. Vllas of Wisconsin , and Governor Hubbard of Texas , are the two gentlemen most promi nently mentioned. NBW iOIW'H CHOICE.

CaiCAno , July 7 * The exciting oventof th day was the struggle In the Nc-vv York delcga lion and the heavy vote polled in favor of th unit rulo. It was argued that It would fore the Tammany opposition into n clogocornor but notwithstanding what apueared to bo famous victory of the Cleveland followers very few of the leaders were willing tocoi code the untrammeled success of Cleveland i allotlng. owing to the fierce nature' of th trugglo and the failure of n portion of n tick gallon to como out openly for the majorit ) candidate. It had been acknowledged that f the caucus had ended with a certainty tha New York would cast her full vote for Clove and , a mifticlent western nndsouthoriistrengll iVimld bo at hand to make his nomination euro. The fact of the lack of unanimity It the delegation is now being used by the friend ) of other candidates in pushing their claims for recognition. TUB CIKUKI.AND liowovor , are In high feather and claim a * : osult of the day's work that the fight had al ready been won and that it onlv requires m sitting of the convention to seal the victory. Tory few of the states winch pel footed their organization to-day took a test vote as to their presidential preferences. A portion of Penn sylvania is known to be for Randall , Delaware for Bayard , and Indiana and Kentucky for McDonald. It is given out tint Connecticut will cast her twelve votes for Clev eland. icm.v to day took a vote and will on an Informal ballot givoCleland 21 , Bayard S , Tildon 2 votes , and one blank vote was cast , ( IKORIIIA. was addre od by General Faulkner , of New York , who presented objections to Cleveland' * candidacy. A reply was made for Clovelaiul by JOSKl'H 1TUTZEI1 , of the World , who frnoko at length and with great earnestness. The impiosslonon the del egation was favorable to Cleveland ; while there was no formal vote , it was understood the vote of Georgia would bo caht for him. Vermont Instructei their chairman Jto cast tbcir vote as a unit for Cleveland. Massachusetts is bOLII ) VOR UUTtEK hut in the event of his defeat , it is believed the delegation would bo divided rather evenly between McDonald , Thiiniian and Bayard. It is contended that the xplit in Ohio delega tion in in a measure healed. It is declared McLean will bo chosen for chairman unan imously. The adherents of Thurman are making this move , but it is claimed at the eamo time that Thuniiaii has 27 votes in the delegation. New Hampshire 1ms instructed its delegates for Cleveland. A threat which has boon vaguely niadu heretofore of an attempt to defeat THE UNIT HUM ; . w as received with gi eat vigor thia afternoon , and it is now believed that a Tight will be made in the convention , which will bu led by Tammany and its conceded. If it wins it will seriously complicate the situation , and leave the Cleveland oppo sition in Nevy York fieo to act. While thu lower campaign appeared to hae ended as a. result of thu caucus this afternoon , his sup- Dorters contend they are not opposing Cleve land , and that if the unit rule is defeated , those who went over to Slocum will return to Flowers , mid make it a rallying point for his supporters generally. A caucus held to-day in John Koiley'ri room , with the tolo purpose of organi/ing a campaign against the mat rule , contends that the national convention of 1863 ordained that the unit rule could be dispensed with any time at the option of any subsequent nationaf convention. As n result of the caucus , it is declared Massachusetts. Iowa , Kansas , Delaware , aud other ntates have de cided to support the proposition on the floor of the convention. The Massachusetts delega tion held a meeting thisafteinoon , which was addressed by GKNKHAIi nUTLElt , in which ho said : " I will suppoit the nomi- ueo of this convention , no matter who ho may OHIO.

The New York delega , \on \ met at 11 o'clock , and continued in sea sion four hours , ( treat interest centered in this neotlng as having \ory important boat ing on , he final action of the convention , and the mil-way in ft out of the room in which the H'ssion w.is hold was filled with a throng of loople anxious to eecuro early tidings of the esult. It was understood that at n meeting ate last night Tammany decided to insist on a tvvo-thiids majority for the enforcement if the unit rule , and thy question was whether : hat number could bq mustered. There was a long and excited discussion the tenor of which hai not yet been learned. Humor * of , ho results of thoi balloting crept out from , imo to time , but could not be verified. The following is given as the ballots to-day or the presidential preferences : 1'iist or informal ballot : Cleveland , -ID ; Blower , 23 ; Thurman , 1 ; Bayaid , 1 ; Tildon , Second or formal ballot of the changes : Dloveland , 47 ; General Slocum , 15 ; Bayard , ; 1'lowcr , 1.

Of 011JKCT10KH , nd the real fight was on. John Kelly , enatorGrady , and others threw themselves ito the breach. They attacked Cleveland's vailabilitv' , and intimated thAt a bolt might ccur if Cleveland's nomination was forced pen them , but finally cooled otf and haid ; ioy did not moan it. Then they declared lie unit rule was an injustice * , and that they rould not ba bound by it. Grady declared lint the state had no right to iiistiutt the elegatc ) from districts. The Cleveland .nen igisted that the stnto convention appointed be delegate ? , rial had authoiity to instruct licin upon any and all questions. It vyas rgod that every delegate who was attempting o break the rule had voted for it in state onvontion and promised to abide by it. For over two hours the exciting discussion as continued and then the Tammany dulo- ates asked for an adjournment , that they light have a chance to consult. This was ranted , and n recess was taken. A few mill- tos afterwaid Senator Grady and General pinoln , nfter _ a hurried talk with John Kelly , dged their way through the crowd , and wore shored into Chairman Manning's private loin , where a long consultation with a viovv 0 a compromise of differences failed to result 1 an agreement.

It takes very little wisdom to nee liat if they run against each other the cam- la'ttn ' would become simply a controverny ver the taiiff , and that in such a controversy lie manufacturing Ktates of Now York , Now eisoy and Connecticut would mdo with the u-otccttonist. The truth Is , the demociat louse gave the piexidency to the lojmblicans , nd the republican convention gave it back to he dumociatx.
