VOLUME XL. ~~ noTHING, FURNITURE. WUDREDS © LOOK OUT! OF PEOPLE, THOUSANDS OF PURCHASERS, MILLIONS OF SUITS! ‘And all these people flocked in from the eity, country, and suburbs to see PUTNAWS GRAND SPRING OPENING Went away Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise, They were HEALTHY, because each anit purchased was seasonable and well made. No thin shoddy cloth, made for show from cheap aud miserable fabrics, bat honest goods, for honest money. They were WEALTHY, because they felt that they were clothed at a moderate price in apparel equal te that made in the most fashionable and artistic tailor- ing establishment for double the amount. And they were WISE in the knowledge that they had foufid a’ place where varie- ty, excellence of manufacture, and cheap- ness of price were the mottoes to snccess- fol business enterprise. Among those who visited the Putnam, a fair representative of everyday callers was JOHN SMITH. Mr. Smith was a prudent man, and investigated the rela- tive claims of each and every clothing es- tablishment in the city before purchasing. Then he selected the PUTNAM, and went home. His wife scarcely knew him 3 his children were delighted at the improre- ment in his personal appearance; and his neighbors pressed around him to in- quire the place where he had purchased such a bargain in READY-MADE CLOTH.

Banks’ Course in the Massachu- -setts Convention Severely Commented On. NEW YORK. THE APPROACHING DEMOCRATIC STATE CON* VENTION. Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Synacuse, N. Y., April 17.—Hundreds of Tilden men, sent out from New York City, are at work in different parts of the State trying to bolster up the old man from Cipher ae ‘The anti-Tilden men are now clearly intthe remacy, and, unless Tilden, buys Some of the delegates over, nothing but de sfeat awaits him. Fully two-thirds of the “regular” delegates reported are anti-Til- den, which does not, look very well for the Gramercy Park statesman. It is now said that Tilden will cause a letter, annonncing his withdrawal, to be read at the Convention. ‘It was intimated ina previous dispsteb - to Tne Tripone, on the authority of a gentle- man at one time intimately connected with Tilden, that such an event would not be sur- prising if “Old Buchu” saw he could not carry his own Convention. A disgusting in- cident is creating considerable comment in the city. . A large number of lewd women.in New York have telegraphed to Syracuse for rooms during the Convention.’ So animal lust and political licentiousness: will ‘be mingled like wine and water. Already the ‘Politicians are beginning ‘to arrive, and by to-morrow the number will belarge. | Already the sounds of the approaching ‘conflict are heard. On Tuesday. the frag- ‘ments of the Democracy of New York will assemble in Syracuse to i : FIGHT OUT THE BATTLE that has. been. brewing for two years. Tha politicians have begun to arrive, and the hotel lobbies to-night are filled with excited ‘men eagerly, and in most instances noisily, discussing the probabilities and possibitities. This morning it looked as if Tilden would have his way .in spite of the well-laid plans of the opyosition, but a change has. come ‘over the scene.. District Conventions to elect delegates. to the State Convention were held in a number of counties to-day, and almost without excep- tion ‘elected anti-Tilden delegates. ‘I'he prospects now are that the palsied old barnacle who has foisted himself on- the Democratic ship will be shaken off. The number of delegates to be sent to the Con- vention is 3St. One ‘hundred and ninety- three arerequired for a majority. The returns atalate hour to-night show that, counting the Irving Hall delegation from New York and the Kings County delegation, which in- cludes Brooklyn, ‘Tilden has only 156 dele- gates. Of the remaining delegates, 213 are anti-Tilden, and 15 doubtful. Allowing Tilden all the doubtful delegates, he WOULD NO HAVE A MAJORITY. The Sage of Apher Alley, in order to gain his point, has ordered paper delegates,—that is, men not ‘elected, but appointed, without the slightest title tobe sent to the Conven- tion. ‘The work of making paper-delegates falls to the lot of Faulkner, Chairman of the Tilden State Conunitiee, and he las obeyed most explicitly the commands of his paralytic master. If the paper-delegates are admitted, the anti-Tilden delegates who were elected under the Tilden call will march ina body from the hall, and form a separate organiza ton. The correspondent of Taz TrrBuNe was informed to-night that Kelly had concluded. to abandon the scheme to attempt to capture ‘Tilden’s Convention." “The ° Tammany Sachem and his braves will form in the Grand Opera-House independent of all other bodies. ‘There. is likely to be a break in the Irving Hall and the Kings County delega- tions. In this event he ‘would be summarily squeiched, and nothing could resurrect his wasted powers. It was thought at one time that if the anti-Tildenists bolted they would : JOIN THE KELLY CrowD, aut but, this seems improbable at the present writing, . There is now every prospect af three Con- ventions at Syracuse at onetime. If Kelly had been wise he would have sent his delegates, especially those from Tammany Hail, to Tilden’s Convention, and demanded admis- sion. Three months ago it seemed as if the old bung-starter from Gramercy would have everything to suit himself, but his greatness has departed, [f he attempts to use his paper celegates and the anti-Tilden men ecede he will be his own hangman. His clegates would be considered inegular at Cincinnati, while the anti-Tilden delegates “ithe Hom Willtsma C. Ragger of Onond County, the Hon. De Witt C: Sfann of Lewis County, and Senator Charles Fowler of UF sier County, will lead the anti-Tildenites.
