Capt. E.. P. Allen, of Ypsilantl, proved a presiding oflcer of decision, tact, and parliamentary skill, and had the discordant clement well in check. ‘The resolutions presented by Prof. Moses Colt Tyler, of Michigan University, pledged renewed fidelity ‘to the great and’ sacred principles for. which William A.

A resolution that Senator Ferry’s nume bo presented for the Vice-Presidency was adopted without dissent. An ant!-Grant rea- olution was received with cheers and hisses, AND A TUMULT SEEMED IMMINENT, but the Chairman nipped it in the bud, and tho matter was promptly tabled. When the balloting for first delegate-at-large was pro- posed, the Wayne County quarre! showed Its head. Maj. Thompson, ofthis city, had, after a hard fight, carried the county caucus and been named as district delegate. He came into the Convention and nominated for delegate-at-larga James McMillan, the well- known carbuilder, It was asserted that tho Intter was a Grant nian, but be took tho platform and openly declared himself in favor of Blaine, Tho law-aond-order element of this county, to whom ‘Thompson has become -obnoxious by alding saloonkeepers In thelr attumpts to nullify the Liquor Jaw, supported Jnmes F.

Wasisnaton, D. C., May 12—The nation- al effects of the Cook County bolt are still the sensational topic of political discussion here. The talk of yesterday that Grant ought to withdraw fs continued with even greater positiveness and force. Republicans whe are not Inclined to hasty expressions of optnion say hat they think thatthe time has come for Gen. Grant to declare himself upon this question before It is too Inte. “They say that it would beeminently unpatriot- fe for him now to permit his personal ambi- tlon to ruin the country which his courage helped to save. The proceed- ings in Chienga = nre Interpreted by all Republicans in Congress, except Jtra-Grant men, as a signal indica- tion of danger which the Grant campaign ts bringing upon the party, Said a conserva- tive Senator to-day: “The peril fs imminent. ‘Whatever may be the true philosophy of the factional fight in Cook County, it fs very evident thatthe third-term candidacy is ap- proved only by a minority of the party, but that minority seem disposed to rule or rnin with their favorit, It is time,” sald this Senator, “that the thinking niasses in the party became arotised to the danger, and see toitthatthe great interests Involved in the. campnign of 1880 are not now sacrificed to the personal ambition of candidates.” WHITESIDES COUNTY, Spectat Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Monson, Ill., May 12—Tho Republican Connty Convention was held In this city this afternoon, aud was one of the largest and most enthusiastic conventions held In tho county for years.
