CHICAGO , 111. , Juno' IS. The opsnlng of
convention week will flnd tbu line of bulllo
olo3oy ! drawn and every candidate seem
ingly assured of the uxact strength with
which ho will enter the contest. Every dele
gation of the forty-lour states of the union
will bo on the ground , and the cblof uncer
tainty will be as to the probnolo action of
Illinois , Indiana and Kentucky. Should nil
of these states cast tholr solid support for
Cleveland on tbo first ballot there Is llttlo
doubt but that he will receive the two-third
vote requisite for nomination. Dut should
each of tboso states , on the other hund , cast
the full strength of Its delegation lor Its
favorite'son , the probabilities of Mr. Clove-
land's nomination on the opening ballot
would bo very remote indeed. In the esti
mates given out this evening by some of the
Cleveland people , purporting to show that
the ox-prcsldcnt is reasonably euro of receiv
ing the requisite two-thirds on the first bal
lot , It Is observed that all of these status
nro not credited with allegiance to their
favorlto sons.
Cleveland's Inexpediency.
The aggregate votes of Illinois , Indiana
nnd Kentucky are 101 , nnd tbuu Iho Impor
tance of Iho vote of these three states can
hardly bo overestimated. Congressman
William M. Springer of Illinois , chairman ol
Iho committee ou ways and moans of the
national liouso of representatives , is on the
ground , urging that the Illinois delegation ,
in the interest of expediency , will vote lor
John M. Palmer ou the first ballot and con
tinue their efforts on behalf of the Illinois
leader until u nomination is reached. Henry
Wnttoi-bon of Kentucky is understood to b'.i
laboring' with the delegation from the blua
grass stnto in the effort to secure the solid
vote of thnt state for John G. Carlisle , and
Senator Daniel Yoorhcos ot Indiana is
making n llko demand on the Hoosier state
in behalf of ox-Governor Gray. It is
reported tonight that tbo prominent
democratic loaders of these states arc
endeavoring to arranga a conference of dele
gations by which it will bo mutually agreed
that the nomination of Clovoland'ls to bo de
clared Inexpedient , and that tbo 104 votes
which ho might otherwise receive from these
states.aro tu DO distributed amoni ; the favor
lto sonn , Palmer receiving the -(8 ( votes of
Illinois , Carlisle receiving tho'JO votes of
Kentucky and Gray receiving the 'M Votes of
Indiana.
Free to Act nn They Pleaje.
Palmer and Gray were formally endorsed
by.tnelr respective conventions as presiden
tial rnndldatcB , and they only refrained from
instructing for Cleveland because of the
vrobablllty that Carlisle might bo ushered
into the contest at the latest hour. Thus
the delegations of these throe % tatcs arc
practically froa to act as they please in an
omcrcenoy , and Iho great question of the
hour is , will they abandon Cleveland in Iho
-v Interest of their western candidates ?
The conferences of Indiana delegates held
during tbo afternoon do not indicate that
Gray cnu possibly secure the unanimous vote
jn thn Ilrst ballot , or , Indeed , on any other
'ballot , unless Grovcr Cleveland shall have
bcon practically retired from the raco. It
appears that Cleveland has about twelve
delegates In the Hoosier delegation who will
insist on voting for Iho cx-prcsldcnl from tbo
Tory beginning. Despite the efforts that are
bcincr mndo to induce them to go 'wifh the
Cither eighteen men of the delegation aud
vote solidly for an Indiana candidate , they
< how no Igns of weakening up to luls tlmo.
And so it is not unlikely that this convention
may develop ono of the usual lights which
bns been BO common In the past among the
Indiana loaders , and lhat the result may bo
that Iho delegation from thnt stnto will go to
pieces on the first ballot , giving Cleveland
twelve votes , Gray seventeen and John M.
Valmor of Illinois one , ns ono of the northern
Indiana dclogntcs , who Is a great admirer of
licncral Palmer and hns been waiting many
yours to vote for him for the presidency ,
icems to consider it his religious duly to 1m-
Drove this timo.
Kenlnekyiin Unknown Oimntlty.
The greatest mystery surrounds the Ken-
lucky delegation und no ono ou the ouisldo
teems to ufiva any very positive indication
of the way that stntu.wlll go. Henry Wat-
torson , tbo great Kentucky editor , has
shown that ho can bo sccrotlvo when bo
wishes , aud tlio taciturn rooly which ho has
Iflvou to all inquiries affords but little Indi
cation of what ho and Im fellow lenders of
Iho Blue Qrnis state intend to do. Carlisle
has gene to the extent of saying that ho
? ia s with great gravity the situation that
will bo presented by the nomination of
Cleveland , but ho does not go ns far as to-
ft express the opinion lhat Iho defeat ot Cleveland -
> land will ba the penalty of that nomination.
There Is no doubt that , with Cai-llsto out of
the race , fully r-alf the Kentucky delegates
are disposed to favor Cleveland. Only the
'
iron will of Henry Wnliorson could'keou
them from oasiing inelr vole for Iho ox-
president , and oven WattuHon Is so uncer
tain of his Inlluonco that it Is bullovod ho
welcomes the candidacy of Carlisle ns the
only ulTcctlvo raouna of kooplng the Ken
tucky delegates away from Clovnland.
llllnuU it Controlling Inllnente.
Illinois , which In tha past has boon such a
yowerlutlio republican convention , is sud
denly assuming a position of almost equal
prouilncnco In the democratic convention ,
for this reason every rncourso unown to
jio,1orn politics H boln ? Drought to bear by
the different faction * upon the delegates of
thottata lo control Iho influence ot the dele-
gallon , Tbo anti-Cloveluud pcoplo are evi
dently very anxious the Illinois delegation
thall think It expedient to coino west for Its
presidential candidate. The person who Is the
most btrougly opuojlisi ; this plan is General
Palmer himself , who has written lo nearly
ill tha moiubon of the Illinois delegation ,
\uvUin them to give Cleveland boncbt sup
port so long M ho shall bo in tha raco. There 1
is no doubt that ha H sincere for tha nomina
tion of the ox-preMdcnt , nnd It Cleveland
gets the vote of Illinois on the first ballot It
may bo credited to General Palmer's work.
lln < tiomed Into Itmllniit lloom.
Two booms which have blossomed today
nro causing considerable anxiety to the
Cleveland leader * tonight. They are the
Gorman boom and Iho Morrison boom , and
there Is no doubt but that the friends of both
those gentlemen are Inhering assldlously to
bring thani Into tba contest ai compromise
candidates. Gorman , of course , cnn < got the
solid vote ot the Maryland delegation whenever -
over ho desires It , nnd It is assumed that his
fiction In opuojlnc the force bill in the Untied
Suites somtto'would causa him lo receive n
substantial support from the various south
ern delegates.
William E. Morrison appears to bo prin
cipally urged by delegates from Kentucky ,
Arkansas and Texas , und Micro Is no doubt
many moro delegates will fool friendly to
him In the event of Cleveland's ' rotlrjinont.
The great diniculty under which Murrlsou
labors Is that his own state , Illinois , is
pledged to another candidate Ganoral John
M. Pulmur. The recent Illinois stnto con
vention , after ondorsinc in a general way
Iho administration of ProMdont Cleveland ,
declared that In case it should become ox-
nculcnt to como west for a randldato the
Illinois delegation should support Ganoral
Palmer , now the United States senator tor
the pralrio stato. And so It would appear
thnt Morrison has not much chance to miter
the convention with his own staid delegation
behind him until after Palmer shall have
been given n thorough opportunity to
develop a following outside of his own
stale.
For Clc\cliind on the PI rut Ilullot.
A majority of the Illinois delegation ap
pears to bo for Cleveland on the first ballot.
After that the demand ot the Morrison pco
plo that the tariff reformer ba given n
cuinco would doubtless bo complied with ,
but thu first choicoof the doicgition utter
Cleveland appears to bo Ganornl John M.
Palmer. Many of Palmer's friends bellovo
that ho must ba nominated as the legatee of
Grover Cleveland , If nominated nnil. . It
would bo wlso for the Illinois delegation not
to support Pnlmor on the Ilrst ballot , but re
main loyal to Cleveland until tha nomination
or the latter shall have uppoarod impossible.
Then by tbo Illinois delegation voting sol
idly for Piilmor they bellovo Iho Cleveland
people would bo disposed to como to
Illinois as their second choice. U is mani
fest , however , that the Morrison loaders are
also counting upon the Cleveland following
tor the supoort which will maito their candi
date a prominent fuotor in the raco. For
this reason they are uulto willing that Morri
son shall not bo brought forward as a candi
date until after various ballots are taken nnd
Iho nomination of Cleveland appears Impos
sible. And so the pronosltion to vote for
Palmer , whenever the nomination of Cleveland -
land shall appear Inexpedient or impossible ,
finds no particular opposition tonight from
the Morrison people , and it is probable
that the great tariff reformer will only
be ushered Into the presidential contest ns n
dark horse after Cleveland shall bavo been
retired nnd Palmer shall bavo received tbo
loynl support ot the Illinois dolegnilon for
several ballots.
Harmony Not to Ho Tliought of.
Tbo events of the day have not been such
us to givu any particular discouragement to
the Cleveland leaders. The Tammnny
organization the state of Now York
stands as an Impassive sphynx , warninc by
Its very attitude the democracy of the
nation against selecting a presidential candl-
siato from thu Empire slalo. The much-
hoped-for harmony botwcon the Iwo factions
In Now York shows no signs of realization ,
aud oven the most sanguine Cleveland
enthusiasts are forced to admit that
tha utterances of Tammany leaders do not
glvo any assurance tha't ihoy will supnort
the presidential tlckot in the ovout of Mr.
Cleveland's ' nomination. It is this solution
In this grout pivotal state which causo.3 the
anti-Cleveland nconlo to cry out Against the
expediency of tto ex-prosldonl's renomlna-
lion ; but to some extent the Importance of
Iho state of INow York Is oftsot by\ho latest
advices from Michigan und Kansas. The
decision of the supreme court of Michigan , n
majority ot the members of which art ) repub
licans , ufllrmlng the constitutionality of tbo
Miner law , practically assures the democrats
eight electoral votes this fall from tbo state
of Michigan.
Democrats ami Allliinco Men to Fuse.
Ex-Govornor Glick of Kansas also author
itatively announced in the Cleveland head
quarters todny that tbo democrats of thnt
state would endorse .tho tlckot put up oy the
pooplu's parly nnd that , therefore , tbo re
publicans would not receive an electoral
vote from the whole stale. As there promises
lo bo no doubt of the well ostabllslu-d fusion
between the domocrnls nnd people's party
In Kansas , the prediction of ox-Govornor
Click as to the loss of Kansas to Iho repub
licans appears lo bo quite on the lines of
probability. And so it Is not an unusual in
cident tonight to hear os'thuslastlo Cleveland
admirers exclaim In the lobbies of the hotels
that Cleveland can bo elected without thu
vote of the state of Now Yorn nnd chit the
regular democracy of tbo Emplro state should
bo dolled.

LONDOV , Juno 18. [ Now York Herald
Cable Special to TUB BEE. ] It Is knoxvn
to the House of Commons now that another
committee or deputation from the United
States Is coming over hero with representa
tives of both Purnollltos nn antl-Parnollitos.
I can toll you precisely bow matters stand
at the present moment. The nnti-Parnoll-
itcs , Including Scaton , Dillon , Hoaloy
and O'Brien ara llrm on ono point.
They .vill have nothing to do with nuy ar
rangement which will not glvo them the two
dozen seats In Parliament now hold by the
Parnollitos. That is their minimum demand.
I need not say it Is bitterly resented by the
followers of Parnell , who now muster thirty
in the House of Commons. Their ultimatum
Is , "Give us the seats wo have not got , we'll
Inlk about minor matters afterwards. "
Between those two aomands there is no
possibility of compromise. The doputution
wuluh Is coming from America should have
that fact well In their minds.
"But , " I asked an antl-Parnolllto , "How
can you reasonably ask for tbo surrender of
twenty-four seats out of thirty ! Do you
mean to say that the value of Purncll's ser
vices to the Irish organization Is fairly
measured by six seats out of a total of
eighty-live I"
"Pornoll , " said this gentleman , "always
had moro credit than ho deserved. Ho Is
supposed to bavo kept the entire Irish party
together. Ho did nothing of the kind. Ho
merely looKoa on while wo worked. Tuon ho
took all the pralso. His followers cannot do
moro tbau win six seats In the whole Ire
land. "
"I said : "They would do so It the priests
wore to stand off , The people ara still Pur-
ncllitcs , are they not ! "
1'oiver of the Priests.
My friend did not altogether deny It , but
the clerical lutluonco ho felt confident would
bo supreme In tno approaching olcction and
would bo hostile to any man who called him
self a Parnelllte. Redmond had gene to
America to pick up some money , but would
not get much , and what ho got woqld do him
no good. The priests are moro powerful
tbau money.
Tbo Parnollites take a dlfforont view and
say they may be outnumbered at tbo polls
through the exertions of Archbishop Walsh
Walsh and his brethren , but they ask , Is it
certain that the nnli-Parnellllos can capture
their seats ! Not at all. The split in the
party will result in soco gains for the
unionists , the responsibility for which must
rest upon Dillon , Hoaloy & Co.
" "Ono thing is certain , " said my Informant ,
"that Is wo shall not voluntarily part with
nay of our seals. All these men on tbo other
side would bo licking Pnrnoll's boots now ,
were bo alive , and would bo afraid in his
presence to call tholr souls tholr own. Thov
fancy they will bo able to manage old Glad
stone , but ho is too artful for thorn
Parnoll found that out long ago. You can
never trust that old man. Ho will got the
Hcaloylts Just where bo wants them , and
then sell them out. Wo don't Intend to Do
parties to any such gamo. Wo will stick to
Pnrnell's program. That Is our only crime.
If the pcoplo of Ireland dared act up to
tholr own opinions wo would sweep the
Healcylts clean off the land. But the priests
got bold of the women , the women influence
their husbands , and it is a bard llsht ugalnst
all that. It is going to bo the hottest fight
you ever saw , nt any rate since you watched
what touk place in committee room 15. "

I have reason to know that the
loading Bupportors of Uladstonn are
not bllna to danger thus opened
np before them. In their hnarts
some of them tone rather a gloomy view of
the prospects for hnmo rule , and wish to
goodness they could bury it fifty fathoms
deep. There It stands , however , dogged , un-
movable. The old man * will have homo rule

most unprincipled sink , ' '
Alter that there then is no hope of getting
Ijlm to postpone homo rule , even for a few
months. This announcement will have great
effect upon tbo approaching elections in
Kngland , whore the fooling Is that Irolantl
ought now to . take a back seat ,
and lot England herself bavo a cbanco for
making known her wants. Every day In
deed seems to Improve the prospects of the
conservatives. Local Issues hero and there
may lese thum a few seats to the liberal-
unionists. They are not strung , but in the
main the conservative nunagord are cor-
tululy looking forward to victory , at
the very least running Gladitono go
close thai ho wll | not bo able
to keep a jiovornniont together. A majority
of loss than titty would bo Utterly useless to
him. The conservatives could go on with
half that nuinnor because they stand shoul
der to shoulder whenever a pinch arises ,
The liberals are llko tbo Irish. They split
up Into factions. If Gladstone were to coino
out anil say ho had cousoatoa to abandon
homo rule for u time a thins which

Of course some of his most intimate friends

Special lo Tin ; BuiiJ A curious rovolu-
tlou has Just laken plnco la our literary and
judicial customs. For the Ilrst tlmo in the
history of the press in Franco n jury has
recognized the principle that heavy damages
should bo awarded In n cnso of defamation of
character. M. Drumont , Iho well known
nnll-Snmlle , who accused Deputy Burdeuu
of accepting a bribe from Baron Rothschild ,
the deputy being nt the tlmo engaged In
drafting n Dili relating to the Bank of
Franco , was promptly prosecuted by M. Bur-
douu , und being found guilty was suntcnccd
three months imprisonment and to pay
n line of 1,000 francs ; moreover , the
court ordered that tbo sentence bj published
in several journals aud that the amount of
the line bo spent m this way , ami that for
eight days special promlnonco should bo
glveu to the seatonco on the Ilrst page of M.
Drumont's own journal. La Llbro Parole.
This is certainly u novel sentence and ono
which furnishes ample food for reflection to
those journalists who for some tlmo past
have indulged tar too freely In calumnious
and llbolous statements. The trial proved
there was absolutely no foundation for M. Dru
mont's accusation. M. Drumout testified that
certain persons Informed him of Iho charge
agalnsl Deputy Burdoau , but these persons
tcstilied in court that they know nothing about
Iho charge , cxcapt what they hoard from some
other person whoso identity is shrouded in
mystery. Underthojo circumstances over-
diet of guilty was Inevitable.
11. > ran Ki > tlMchUU's no Potentate.
What makes the case especially remarka
ble , however , is the fact that M. Drumont's '
'
attack 'was really directed against Iho
Kothscullds and the Jews. Baron Rothschild
'xyas sumraonod as a witness and gave his
testimony very calmly.
"I am hot a potentate , " ho said , "and In
financial matters I taico no stop without the
assent and co-operation of the other bankers
who nro my colleagues. "
The baron's ' entire testimony is embodied in
this simple statement , and abjolutcly noth
ing moro was learned in regard to the opera-
lions of ibosa who arc rightly called the
princes of finance.
Araoupr journalists and bankers the trial
caused considerable excitement. ' It Is cer
tainly a matter of rozret that n man o ! great
ability , like M , Drumont , whoso talent as an
author is well known , should waste his valu
able tiiiio in pasiug us tbo champion of lost
causes aud in promulgating ideas which are
Wholly opposed to the modern spirit of lib
erty and equality. For ray part , I do not be-
llevo that anti-senutism will over become
popular In Franco. In the first ptuco , there
are not nnouuli Jews In tbo country to give
people opportunity to criticise and find fnult
with the Jewish character , and , in the second
place , the average Frenchman is n good deal
of an unbeliever and will never consent to
persecute Jews simply on account of their
religion.
French and Itrltlsh Interests Conflict.
Tbo relations between Franco nnd Great
Britain have been very unsatisfactory for
some time , and .since the arrival of Lord
DufToriu us British ambassadorscvoral points
at issue have arisen in regard to
possessions of both countries m various
purts of the world. These UI ( Ter
ences ara causing some uneasiness ,
especially among French statesmen , who fail
to see how it can bo to Lord Salisbury's
interest to assume a hostile uttitado toward
France on the ova of the KcnorM election In
England. Tbo most serious misunderstand
ing between Iho two countries is in regard
to their possessions lu central and east Africa.
There , Indeed , the misunderstanding has
assumed tbo form ot a religious war , several
conlllcts having already taken place between
Catholic and Protoslant missionaries. The
state of affairs does not redound to the
credit of either country , and Is certainly not
a sign that Christianity U making any head
way In Africa.
A clearer proof that Lord Salisbury is
going over to the sldo of the triple
alliance , and intends lo adopt its policy , is
tbo reception to Prlnco Ferdinand of Bul
garia at London , The prince , ns wo know ,
was received with honors that were almost
regal , his host being apparently oblivious of
the fact that his claims to royal honors have
notyot boon recognized by the great powers.
One result of Lord Salisbury's ' action was
that the ambassadors of Franco und Russia
declined to attend the breakfast which was
civen by the lord mayor of London in honor
of tna prlnco , the ovldont rotuon being be
cause they did not elcslro to sanction by their
nrosonco an act which was , M $ uay the
least , a grant blow to International
courtesy. The uuooa and the members of the
royal famllv received Ferdinand kindly , and
as Lord Salisbury had several long Intor-
vlcnvti with him it Is clear that ( treat Britain
intends to establish safeguards for herself
against Russian aggression iu the Balkans ,
and it is equally clear that in doing so she
sunnot tall to como to a misunderstanding
with France , which is now closely allied
with Russia.
lll'Xiklu Kut ln' Koud tu the llonphuriii.
During his stay iu London Ferdinand
asked for the band of Princess Maud of
Wales. Her father refused tbo request , but
bo promised to t'lvo hit consent as soon aa
Ferdinand is rocoxnUod as the prlnoo of
Bulgaria. Tbo prince of Wotoi is naturally
reluctant to glvo his daughter to a man
who pan glvo her the title of queen ,
but who cannot glvo her a tbrono. Queen
Victoria , however , is decidedly iu favor of
the match , and as she bus great inlluonco In
British politics it is certain that Great Brit-
Hlu will strive hard to secure duo recognition

ns soon ns the daughter ot the prltico of

Great Britain will bo In control

mediate danger , and that ns Great Britain's
most Machiavellian plar.s have 'often been
foiled in thepustby n stronger will they may
also bo felled In this instance. At present ,
however , the notable fact is that Great
Britain is npoarantly dome her utmost to
give offense to the Franco-Russian alliance.

The latest phase of the controversy that
tins arisen over the roportn of a reconciliation
between the emperor nud Prlnco Bismarck
discloses Iho hollowuoss of Iho whole alfalr.
The West Djutsche Allogomomo Xoltung ,
Bismarck's now organ lu Cologne , denies
that any overtures looking to n reconcilia
tion have been mndo by cither side. It says
that Baron Stumm , cftor Iho emperor visited
him , was the guest of Prlnco Bismarck.
The baron communicated to the prlnco cer
tain remarks that had been made by tha
emperor disapproving the tone of certain ,
scml-onlcml papars toward the ox-chancellor.
Nothing moro was said , except that Baron.
Stumm seems to have suggested that
Prlnco Bismarck take the ir.ltinllvo in
seeking to re-establish a rcapproach-
meut by making some .form , of apology
to his majesty. * On tnls" point , addi
the paper , Prince Bismarck cannot
admit , oven If the admission led to tils rein
statement in office , of over trying to du
wrong to the omnoror. It w the prlnco'i
enemies who ought to ask pardon before tha
emperor and the country. Tim internal hls
tory of the events which led to Prlnco Bis
marck's retirement from the chancellorship
cannot bo revealed now , but nil precaution !
have been taken to prevent tbo future pass *
