As the Hera'd and News i- being closed up for the press on this the first day of the National Democratic gath ering at Chicago, the indications are unmistakable, though they have in no wise been unexpected, that the great convention will to-morrow annouice, on the first ballot, the nomination of Grover Cleveland as the enthusiastic outcome of its patriotic labors. This result has been looked for, with widely different kinds of expectancy, however, by both great national parties, Mr. Cleveland's wonderful hold upon the consciences and support of the masses of the American people being patent to all. It is quite as plain that, contrary to the experiences of great statesmen generally, -Mr. Cleveland's popularity has clung to him through every phase of his public career, and his party has now, with even greater persistency than before, for the third time sum mioned him to leadership as its candi date for he Presidency. No Democrat having 'faith in his organization and its great principles will doubt his tri umphant election. The signs of the times so presage. The dispatches from Chicago also foreshadow the selee,ion of Governor Gray of Indiana for Vice-President. The next issue of the News and Herald with contain the whole story. It looks like Cleveland at Chicago. He has over ->00 votes, which is a ma jority, but under the two-thirds rule it will take inerly 6n votes to noml inate. Every eiiurt is being used to beat Cleveland. It seems to be Cleve land against the field, or the field against Cleveland. The Hill men are using every means at their command to defeat the nomination of Cleveland. One of the strangest arguments, it seems to us, is the claim that Cleve land will cairy the independent vote of New York. That we have always considered a v4rv important factor to Democratic success in New York, and the fact that Cleveland will carry this vote seems to us wouli be in his favor. Besides, all the Tam many men say they will stand by the party, it mtat ters not who is nominated. So much the reason then that Cleveland shouid be nominated if he can carry the inde pendent vote. He is undoubtedly the choice of two-thirds of the Democrats of the country. But there is no telling what will be done until it is done. The Register almost goes into hys terics over the report that Col. You mans had a pistol on his person at Kingstree, but if the Register has ever said a word about Attorney-General McLaurin having one at Greenville w. e have failed to see it. Besides, General 3IcLaurin was asked about that pistol the other day, and his reply to his questioner was: "It's none of your business." The Register surely did not see any of these reports. The habit of carrying a pistol is not only wrong, but is against the law, and we do not approve it; but why agonize so over the rumor that Col. Youmnans had a pistol when Geni. 3IcLaurin says "It's none of your business," if he, the highest peace officer in the State, goes stalking around over the State with one in his hip pocket'. President Stokes threatens a bolt from the Democracy if Cleveland is nominated. MIr. Stokes is entirely of1 the track when he says any large per cent, of the Democrats in South Cato lina will go into the Third party in case Mr. Cleveland is nominated; though it would be in accord with the teachings of Mir. Stokes himself. He says, howv ever, that he is not going into the party himself; which, of itself, is pretty conclusive evidence that MIr. Stokes does not believe the Third party would have any great followving in South Carolina; for, if he believed it, he would be going along with the move ment. Our Governor says 5e, as Governor, would head a lynching party under certain conditions. We thought our Governor was the man wvho was going to put a stop to all this lynching busi ness and wanted the legislature to give him authority to remove Sheriffs who would not or could not C . md their prisoners. Yet here lhe comle:' now and says he would lead a lynch ing party. Congressman Eli T. Stackhouse, of the Sixth South Carolina District, died suddenly in Washington June i4, ag?d tiS years. He had just returned from attending the funeral services of (ol. Polk at Raleigh, N. C., and wvas p)res ent in the House on the 13th. Two prominent Alliancemen from the South hav'e died recently--Col. Polk and Col. Stackhouse. The report now conmes from Bhick ville, S. C., that Dave Shawv is alive and in that section. Thme Greenville Demoerat pumblishes what purports to be an interview with him. Why not' get Dave to go and see tihe Governor or come and see Solicitor Schumnpert and make aflidavit against the guii:y parties, 5o that warrants cou:d ! e Issued for their arrest. It is idle talk about the Dem 1oer::ey losing South Caroiua if (Cleveland is nonminated. Gov'ernor Ti;lln:n warn ing to this elfreet at Chiag, i, mere bunucomibe.

'To-daV Governor Sheppard opened the meeting with an hour's speech. le was followed by Governor Tillman in a speech of also an hour. During the (Governor's speech Colonel Youmans moved up and sat at a table by the Governor and took iiotes and disposed of his scrap books. The Governor made a bitter speech in which he said that despite all their protestations, conserv atism was Haskellismt in disguise, and the coissrvatives were for the nominee so long as the nominee was not Till ttan. He said that Governor Sheppard was a sham and a trickster. H is strict ures were otherwise severe. TI1 E RETREART. Before he concluded, he said severeiy that ie must close, as there was ona man who wanted to speak (Youmans), and lie wanted the crowd to hear hi;m. Saying this, he asked for his hat, say ing ihe was going to his hotel. At this declaration there was great excitement. The (ivernor's iriends were taken aback. The action was a great shock and a surprise to everybody. The opposition cried: "Running!" The meeting stood still to recover from the shock. Whether necessary or not, the administration friends felt that a mis take had been iade, and it was an unfortunate occurrence. ('ol. \oumans begged the Governor to remain and hear his speech. His speech would be directed against hini and lie wanted the Governor to hear it. "I hope you will stay and hear me (overnor. I am going to attack you," said Col. Youmlianls calmly. Tle Governor became very excited and was apparently angry and said, "If you want to speak The News and Cou rier will publish all yo'i say. Go ahead.'' Fxeitermenrt still prevailed, anid C'ol.

It is certain that the Governor never attacks Col. Youmnans in his speeches, though he pitches into all the other opposition candidates with gloves oif. The Conservatives are very much elated, and the friends of Governor Tillman are surprised, and some say they are humiliated. GOVERNOR TILLMAN INTERVIEWED. ThIe Chronicle representative asked Gov.

He riplied that he would start inl the morning, going on through Columbia without stopping there, arriving in Augusta on to-morrow morning's train from Co lumbia. RICHMOND AND DANVILLE. A Third RIrceiver Likely to be Appointed Soon. MACON, June 18.-It looks like a re ceiver within receivers for the Rich mond and Danville Railroad. Already the system is in the bands of the re eeivers appointed by Judge Bond in Richmond, but if signs in unfinished cases count for anything, Judge Emory Speer will next week appoint a receiver from his court. The whole morning was cousnmed in hearing arguments on the petition of the Central Railroad for a receiver, and no decision will be reached until Monday, but it looks very much like a second receiver. ROLLING STOCK SEIZE!). SAVANNAIH, June 1.-Three passen ger coaches and eight freight caas be longing to the Richmond and Danville Railroad, which came here in course of regular business, were seized by local creditors of the road to-day. Other seiz ures will follow, whenever property of that company can becaught in this see tioni. BACK TO WASHINGTON. WASINGTON, June 18.-S. H. Hard wick, general passenger agent of the Richmond and Danville Railroad Corn pany, said, officially, this morning, that all the offices of the Richmond and Danville Railroad, including the re ceivers' office, would be transferred from Atlanta, Ga., to Washington, D.

[New York bun, 18th.] Messrs. Drexel. Morgan & Co. said yes terday, when asked what effect the re eivership would have upon their deliber ations. that they were taking up the ques tion of reorganization to a thorough and comprehensive manner, and that this move by Messrs. Clyde, MIaben, and Goadby brought in another point for considera tion. It is said, however, on very good authority, that the firm entirely approves of the action taken, and regards it as op portuno. )ELAINE AGA1N iBEILEAVEX). Suddenm Death of Emmnnons BIalne, Second Son of tihe Ex-Secretary. CineCAGo, June 18.-Emmons Islaine, the second son of Jamies G. Blaine, ex Secretary of State, died at 11:15 o'clock this morning, at the McCormick moan son, 135 Rush street. He had been ill but a few hours, aind his dleath was wholly unexpected. Septieemia which developed late last night from a bowel comlplainit, was the immediate cause of death. Mrs. Emmons Blaine and her son, McCiormick Blaine, two years old, and Mrs. Cyrus McCormick were the only members of the family present at the bedside whmen Mr. Blaine passed away. Mr. Blaine's dleathI is doubtless dlue to his over exertion at Minneapolis. The event caused much surprise at the Haitimiore and Ohio Railroad office, for Mrs. Blaine did inot consider h.r hus band seriously ill yesterday. Tihe ProhibitioiAt4 WVin.

[Special to News and Courier.] (ot.IlA%, .Iuie 2'.-There is soie cheerin g news to-dlay from the tield of battle in regard to the Conservative cause. It seems that there has been almost a complete change of feeling inl all parts of the State. '1o-lay State Chairman I)ibble, of the Democratic executive committee, arrived in the city and says that he is on his way to a conference of the Con servatives of several counties, which is to be held in the southeastern portion of the State to-day. The conference is but one of a series of such conference.; alrtady held in various sections of the State. Mr. Dibble is known to be one of the quietest and most successful workers in the State, and when he makes up his mind to talk he generally knows what he says and is a>le to prove it. He spent to-day in the Conservative headquarters iei this city, and he and Secretary J. Q. Marshall went over very carefully the reports of the progress of the eamtpaigl in all portions of the State. The work was arduous, but well worth the I ime consumed. When questioned later by the correspondent of the News and Courier lie talked very freely. He said that there had been, as shown by the reports, "sub stantial gains over the State." He stated that ev; ry series of these reports invariably improve on the estimates previously made by himself and the committee. In regard to the result of the cam paign meetings so far held, he said: "So far as we are concerned we are abundantly satistied with the results of those meetings. We are getting re ports from the field behind each meet ing, and the seed sown at every point is taking root and developing with great rapidity. We are now much more hopeful than ever before. We certain ly and surely expect to carry the State without any trouble. This is not an idle boast, hut is a statement based on the facts before us. The State is now thoroughly organized with the exeep tion of only one or two counties. You can say that I don't think that there is the shadow of a doubt that the ma jority of the white people of this State are unalterably opposed to the re-elec tion of B. R. Tillman as Governor of South Carolina. The only problem that now confronts us is to get the peo ple out to the polls at the August pri mries." Mr. Dibble pr.mises to make public some highly interesting facts in the near future. OVERED WITH SORES Tried the Dootor and Almost Every thing I could Think of but Nothing Helped Me.
