The Friends of All the Candidates Hard at Work. MR. TILDEN'S POSITIVE DECLINATION, Cnicaco, July 7.—At 12:30 to-day the Palmer House was so thronged that it was almost impossible to gain accession. "The excitement is at fever heat. It is thought that it will be settled to-day who will be the candidate of the vention. All delegations are holding off to see what New York will do, The New York delegation has been in se cret caucus since 11:30 this morning and have agreed that the man settled on by New York will be the candidate of the convention. All figuring re. mains at rest till the caucus comes to a conclusion. con. Tammany is making strong efforts to defeat Cleveland by breaking the unit rule, They claim to have good prospect of success. It is certain Cleveland rises or falls, according to the strength of the opposition developed by Tammany. Kelly's friends say Cleveland cannot carry New York. There is strong talk of Bayard snd McDowell for first and second place, in case Tammany suc ceeds in defeating Cleveland. So Kelly said to your correspondent this morning. He is sure Cleveland can't carry New York, and will fight it to the bitter end, appealing to the convention to smash the unity rule, if necessary. PENNSYLYANIA DELEGATION, Cuicaco, July 7—2 p. m.—The Peon. gylvania delegates met this morning at the Grand Pacific. All were present. Fekley B. Coxe was elected chairman of the delegation.

Pennsylvania delega tion is united and enthusiastic and claim that Randall's chanches are ex. ceedingly good. Committee notifiea and Chairman Coxe made arousing Ran. dall speech on taking the chair. Several delegates objected to being com. pelled to vote for Randall as long as his name was before the convention, but they were silenced and the resolution carried with a rush TILDEN'S Last, Americus and Randall elubs are parading the street and helping the Randall boom in every way posible, - New York, July 7.~The following is the authentic communication to Mr, Barnum, chairman of the national com- mittee from Tilden: “Gruysroxe, July 5, 1884, To Hon. Wm, Barnum, Chicago Ill.: 1 have receiv, ed your telegram informing me of the disposition to nominate me for the presidency and asking will you except the unanimous nomination from the convention, and also a telegram from Mr. Manning saying ‘it seems absolute ly necessary that you [I] ehould answer as soon ms possible,’ Your inquiry wae explicitly answered in the negative by my letter of June 10 to Mr, Manning. 8, J, Torn,” | Blaine himself, thanks to his thrift in combining private business with public legislation, is well provided with *‘the William Walter Phelps, who was one of Blaioe's | sinews of war.” By the way, managers at Chicago, recently gave a little dinner bearing strong resemblance to the famous banquet given in honor of Steve” the campaign of 1880, at which those Dorsey, after the close of present were informed the great Star route swindler carried Indiana by the | judicious use of “soap,” Mr. Phelps’ dinner was given within a fortnight af ter the nomination of Blaine, sad the conversation appears to have turned quiet naturally upon the manner in which that nomination was accomplish ed. Everybody belives that it wes due in large part to the purchase of colored delegates, and so Mr. Phelps said to his guests : “We had to pay the expenses of the colored delegates both ways, and that averaged about $40. Then we had to pay the botel bills in Chicago, and that cost more, for the colored dele gates came early and staid late, and pothing was too good for them. And finally we bad to buy eachone a suit of clothes,” Mr. Phelps might, like Mr. Dorsey, have said that “soap” did it—and more soap, 100, than he has seen fit to account for, old in the business to sell out expenses and a suit of clothe it probably took a good deal Colored delegates are vo for their | -> Pinkerton Dead THE CAREZR OF THE GREATIEAT OF DETE TIVES ENDKI AlN | Al y died at a late hour this Cricaco, July 1 i had been sinking for days » sicians yesterday his recovery.
