CHICAGO , July n. Aa the hour approachoa
for the meeting of the contention , It Is moro
apparent that the opponent ] of Cleveland wll
make another attempt to break the unit rule
and that upon the result of this they count the
chances of Bayard , McDonald or Thurman as
good or doubtful. In what form the teat will
coma up will depend on the form of the pro
ceedings to-day. Tha Cloroland managers
were Industriously at work nil night. The
circular issued by the young meu'a democratic
club of Brooklyn wai again pressed upon the
attention of the outaido delegates. It urges
the nomination of Cleveland on account of his
availability , tlio independent republicans being
attracted to him. Their support will bo for
the benefit of the democratic party. The del-
cgatoft are further advised that in order to In-
sura the xupport of tha republicans it is nee-
csaaty to have a plunk In tha platform favor-
ItCVKXUU HEl'OUM.
"It Is a fact to be carefully noted , " say
thesa friends of Cleveland , "that the republi
can rorolt against Mr. BUino is composed for
the most part of individuals and journals who
are in favor of tariff reform. " There are other
republicans represented hero not considered
by these gentlemen. They nro not free
traders , but nro those who do not like the
sweeping tendency to centralization of re
publicanism. The legal tender ( Incision is
referred to as cause for complaint. Tlio
opinion of Justice Fidld in this case nnd his
opinions in other casoj Involving questions of
local government are ruforiod to. Th''so
men nro favorable to Justice Field and have
made a fUroag impression In behalf of that
gentleman. Very judicious work has been
done for Mr. Field and if the instructions of
California delegation did not stand in the
way the donuustration in hi * behalf wuuld
bo more pronounced. The enthusiasm shown
for ox-Sooator Tliurmau yesterday encourages
many in the hope thut ho may dually bo se

Mr. Vilas in taking the chair returned

nation of himself but of the young democracy
of the northwest. It was there f .ir due. It
was a tribute to their lofty zeal nnd patriotism -
ism , They hailed it ns a presage and proto-
: ypo of the coming triumph. [ Applause ]
This convention was assembled to consider u
? ruat cause , to pronounce a nomination judg
ment , Its hand was on the helm of n mighty
nation , Karth's greatest , noblest , free soci
ety would rcjoico in tha well connidorod work
of this convention. Its import and value lay
not in the hope of mere party victory , in
clutching tha spoiU of office. The opportu
nity was pregnant with mighty poitibifitins of
good to men. The republican party which had
recently held Its convention hero had
tendered nothing worthy of tha fer
vent aspirations of the people :
to a country rejoicing in restored unity and
concord ; it tendered tha renewal of rational
( trite ; n nation that felt the impulxoof a
mighty irrowth , it offered the inspiration
of national calamity and mitfortuno ;
o n proud and sensitive people demanding do-
ivcranco from dishonesty and corruption , de-
nanding decency in Booking and cleaullnes-i in
lolditig public stations it ollered the cniilny
darts of skillful demngogucry. In political
tarlance ,
"SOAP"
was its inspiration and ammunition. The air
was already filled with vapors of visionary
choine.i uddroflsod to various interests and fac-
ions. Some were indulged to expect * ad-
'antago from the chaotic possibilities of foreign
var. Others were promised relief or gain from
egalizod UAurjutioux on the national treasury.
Great rhingo "lias boon wrought in recent
ears in this country In the minds of the peo-
> Io nud in political forces. We have censed
; o fiftht out a suicidal war , The sin of ulavery
las boon purged. The work accomplished by
who labored to save tha union rom tins
indlsturbed and the gratitudfe of the pcopluis
heir reward. [ At this polut General lintlcr

The speaker , resuming , said that thu convon-

hat tha only hope lies in the utter defeat of

When the state of Delaware was called
hero was nn Immediate outburst of choora.
After the uproar had subsided , Mr. George
Gray , of Delaware , onto to the platform nud
uddrossod the convention. Ho said ho had
been instructed to present the naino of a man
too worthy to rocolyo the nomination. lie
did so under the realising eomto of the great
ropoufiuility rating upon the convention to
act o that the gieat opportunity which God
HiniHclf , ho reverently believed , had glu-n
them should not pass away mil improved The
republican nominntiou had Hung defiance into
the face of American manhood and shocked
the conscience of the bent men in that party.
Such a nomination was aeign of the decadence
of that great party and not n sign of increas
ing strength. The democracy called for u can
didate who had been weighed In the balance
and not found wanting , The democracy de
manded n statesman whoso wisdom and oipntl-
once were known. It demanded n loader who
chlvalrlc courage would never falter and who
could nud would bring to the dust the
1 plumed knight" of false pretenko and of
personal dishonor. It demanded a man with
a privnlo character which would defy the
malignant tongue of Blunder. It demanded
a man who thould bo in bia public and pri
vate character the very antithesis and op
posite of tha nominee of the republican party.
The man wliq was this and more , whoso nnino
was now leaping from their hearts to their
mouths woa Thomas J. Bayard [ Loud cheers ] ,
Mr. Bayard as a candidate would maku no
mistake. His name would elill the voice of a
nation. He would carry every doubtful slate
and would maku EOIIIO republican Btntos doubt
ful. KntlmxinHin would take the place of
apathy , and would grow and Htill grow ax tlio
leaves \\erogrowing , until the dreary Nnvum-
bur was made ripe and glorious by the paouiis

Mr. Clovelaiid'H nomination , except that ho
know tliit that gentleman could not carry tha

( irady won on ti discuss the vote nu the
Klevuled r/iilway hill nnd to obow how tlio

declared that thn utita of Niixv'xoik could not
bo curriinl by Mr. Clovolind ; not be.-nuso of

fvullng that nn man could bo wet so to them In
that regard than Mr. Cleveland. Hu knew
of but ono occ.vion in which Gov. Cleve

A DBUOCltAT Oil BOtmiOllY BL8K ,

Now York sonui man tiliould bu taken who
would not be untnaonirud by the nntagonl tc !

took no such position. Tlio democracy could
carry Now York for Thurmnii , Baynril , Mc
Donald , or Randall , but not for i luvoland
New York was safe state If the democratic
party was kept solid , but not otherwise.

Bragof Wlseonsin , objected , nnd npailiat
which bo made a point of order , which was
overruled by tha chair ,

a friend of his to wish to eeo him nominated
for thu presidency.
Ho was mki'd to giyo the mime of the cnn-
