Tho n-imerntio niflonnl oonvoutiua will bo hold In tho city of Chicago on July 7. Tli.it was tho decision reached Inst night by tho national Democratic committee nftor an Interesting nntl at tlmos exciting sosslon which con tinued until 11 o'clock. There was con siderable differences of opinion as to the tlmo for holding tho convontltm, ono proposition, ndvnnccd by Allen W. Thur man, of Ohio, who held tho proxy of tho New Slexlco member, being to hold It i Juno 7, two weeks boforo tho Republican convention, and tho other by Hugh Wal lace, of Washington stato, to hold it July 7. Tho commlttoo decided upon the lnttor Unto by a vote, of 33 to 18. The main Interest, of courso, centered j in tho choice of tho convention city. For this honor there wore four applicants, Chi- ' cago, St. Louis, Cincinnati and Now York, j Thirty minutes wcro allowed each to pro- i sout Its clnlnis. Tho specchos, mndo by j distinguished cltlzons In each instance, , wero of high order of oxccllonco, and ut j tlmos aroused tho greatost onthuslnsm. I Tho balloting began at 0 o clock last evening, and from tho llrst a long and bitter strugglo wn? indicated, lho Ur3t ballot resulted: Chicago, 0; Cincinnati, Hi St. Louis, 19; Now York, 11. Thero was practically no change, oxcept u slight fluctuation of a voto or two, until tho tonth ballot, when Chicago began gradu ally to Increase her voto at tho expense of New York. At the twentieth ballot Now York's strength was rapidly disintegrat ing, her voto going almost bodily to Chi cago. But St. Louis, which had tenaci ously clung to her nineteen votes, also captured soveral of Cincinnati's votos, nnd on tho ballot before tho last led New York by ono voto. On tho last ballot, tho twenty-ninth, which was taken shortly boforo U o'clock, tho four remaining votes of Now York, wore thrown to Chicago, and she obtained tho necessary plurality.
