Bpectat Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Ixpsanavouts, Ind., Oct.6.—The Demo- crats have been decidedly down n the mouth to-day over the grand fizzle of yesterday, and everybody Is being abused why had anything todo with its management. Senator Voor- hees, in his grotesque manner, remarked that “everything connected with the rally went to h—I for the want of a head,” while Judge Scott, of the Supreme Court, claimed that the railroads were to blame for it, “ They. wouldn't give us rates,” he said, “and when we asked for accommodations they put us In cattle-cars,” Butthe rank and file Iny the failure at the door of BIN English. “le was too d—d selfish to give us scent,” remarked alocal leader on the street this evening; “and all we had wo raised ourselves.” ‘The last speaker ‘evidently hit the nailon the head, fur there was a general consent among the loafers whom he was addressing, ir. Landers’ speech, especially his reference to business-men, is also criticised severely, and a number of old veterans, who were well fed and treated, denounced the management in bitter terms for allowing a disloyal youth tu earrya LATTLE CONFEDERATE FLAG. It was less than a yard long, and was carried only a short distance, but It was the occasion ofa row which Is Hkely to cost the party many votes, Meanwhile, while the Democ- rucy are quarreling over their fizzle, the Boys in Blue ore preparing for the grandest pollt- feal demonstration on Friday that has been witnessed in the clty since the War. Gen. Knefler, who has the affair In charge, elaine that the Knights of Columbia alone, every member of which Isa voter, will have more men in line than there were voters in the “entire Democratic parade. One of tho features of the procession will be the trades display, among other things beings canalbont built for the occasion. Ex-Goy. Baker will command a mounted Garfleld Club, and 1,000 colored nen will be in line. ‘To-morrow a committees leaves for Peoria, where they will meet Gen, Grant and escort him to the city, But not- withstanding the dismal failure of the Dem-. ocratic rally yesterday, many of thelr man-" Qrers expressed themselves to-day ns_confl- dent of carrying the State. Senator MeDon- ald said they would carry the State, and haye a good wor! Ang majority in the Legislature. Senutor Voorlices fixed their plurality bo- tween 8,000 and 14,000, GOY. HENDRICKS SAID it would not fall short of 10,000, and Judge Scott, of the Supreine Court, ventured the opinion that, whatever Landers’ majority was, lnncock's would be double ns much, Gen. Franz Sigel states that the uncertain vote is so Inree he could give no estimate, but he thought Mr, Landers might> get through. Mr, Landers expressed the opin- jon that “Hancock's election depends whol- ly upon mine. Unless too much money fy used against us the State ticket will be elected by a good majority, If Iam defented the party will make Mo effort to save tho’ State for Hancock. It would bu foolish to attempt it.” William H. English was very quiet, and had no opinion to express, but to a Neus re- porter he said that, “Since J have been Chair- Inan of tho State Committee L have not re. celved a letter that gave me any assurance of a Democratic victory In Judiana.” With this remarkable answer the reporter went to Senator Conkling, who Js reported to have replied: “1f William H. English told you that he has every assurance and fs contident the State will go Democratic. He isa mun who uever : HUNTS UUMULENEES WITH A BRASS BAND, and whathe told you leaves ine but little hope for Indiana... His remark was made to. delude, and I shall look for hii to carry the State?” Ibis not Hkely that Senator Conk~ ling said anything of the kind, nor Is’ Mr. English'’s answer. credited, although it is known that his figures, based on-the poll of the State, show © Democratic shortage of ,000.. ‘The above interviews are of finpor- taneg only because they prove that the Demo- erats, have no figures upon which they ean base a majority, hence no two of the mana- gers ngrce In thelr estimated majority, | It is very evident, however, that they aro badly rattled. Chairman Barnum said to-day, in reply to Landers’ charge that the Republleaus would uso n great deal of money: 1 shall bo ir Indiana on election-day, ee the morn- ing herg and the afternd@i in Terre [aute, and we will show them that we have as much money as is necessary or as they have.” A bystander sunneated, that he had better havo expended a little of It in bls own State, to which Barnum made ne reply, AT REPUBLICAN HEADQUARTERS the managers aro very happy, and confident, All-are at work, and nothing seems to go wrong, “Tho drift is with us,” said Col, Duley to Tue Tinnunr’s representative, “and We are curtain to elect Porter, ‘Tele- prs have been sent from Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington asserting that Dewocratle rupeaters and roughs have left there for fndlana, intending to vote, and Mr, Porter has received letters from a number of ersons,—several’ In Cincinnatl,—warnlng him that the Democrats are intending to buy the negro vote on ‘Tuesday next; but I think the Republicans sre getting ready to meut all thesa schemes, aud unless they yet the better of us it large Democratic counties, wo shall come out all right? Senator Conkling remarked this morning, as he was leaving for Terre Haute, that all the reports he had received since enter tho State were very flattering, and he had large hopes of a Republican victory, A Re- publican bet $100 on Porter’s clection Inst night. He could getno odds, It is alsosaid that a genticman called upon Afr, We W.
