THE SITU.ATIOY TO-DAY. ALL A MUDDLE YET. and Nothing Long. [ By Telegraph from our Special Correspondent.) CrxcinNaTh May 1, 11.30 o’clock a. m.—The streets present an unusually active andcrowded appearance this morning. Large crowds are vending their way to Exposition Hall, where the liberal convention assembles at noon. THE RE-UNION REFORM CONVENTION. composted mainly of German democrats, met this morning at 10 o’clock at Mozart Hall. The attendance was very small, all public interest being concentrated in TRE LIBERAL CONVENTION. The demand for tickets ot admission to the latter is very pressing; and the fact that there are hundreds claiming to be delegates who will not be able to get inside the hail, creates much ill-feeling. It is thonght that very little wil! be done to-day, except to make a temporary organi- zation and arrange upon the manner in which the states shal! be represented in the convention. ‘The delegations are busy canvassing nominees. GREELRY'S CHANCES are considered good this morning, but the sits tion changes hourly, and with it preferences for candidates, The bad feeling between the free traders an‘! protectionists does not improve, and ‘there is great danger of disraption on this question. SENATOR 8 HURZ has d resolutions, wich he will offer. providing that when the convention adjourns to-day it shall meet again at seven o'clock this evening; that in the meantime the states shal! elect from their representatives present twice as many delegates as are allowed trom the state in the electorial college; and that such delegates saa transact the business of this con- tion. GREELEY THE COMING MAN. It is stated that before leaving iast night for Washington Senator Fenton expressed the opin- ion that Greeley would be nominated. [seconp pisratcH} TEMPORARY ORGANIZATION PERPBCTED. STANLEY MATHEWS PRESIDENT. SCHURZ AT THE FRONT. Adjournment Until Ten O'Clock To-Morrow (Prem Our Special Correspondent.} Crxcinnati, May 1,2 o'clock p. m.—The con- vention wag called to order by Col. Grosvenor, chairman of the Liberal republican committee of Missouri, who read the call for the conven- tion. He said: This convention, originating in a single state, had representatives here from every state. This was a marked tokenof public sentiment. The call to the country had been heeded, and the response showed that the cali was responded to. Atter these remarks, Col. Grosvenor named Judge Stanley Matthews, of Ohio, as tempo- rary chairman; which was agreed to. ‘Judge Matthews then came forward. He was received with tond and protonged cheers, and proceeded to deliver a speech, which was rather mild intone. He said the time had come when it is the unmistakable voice of an exceedingly large portion of the American people that v will not wear the collar of any party. [Tre- mendous cheers.) He had heretotore acted with the republican party, and he was proud to say that that party had enough virtue left in at to referm itself within itself, his was the object of this convention. Col. Grosvenor then nominated as secretaries Col. George Ward Nichols, ot Ohio; Gen. Pai mer, ot New York, and Col. Kessick, of Mo. He also offered a resolution, prepared by Sen ator Schurz, with regard to selecting delegate and changing the time of meeting from 7 o'clk this evening until 10 te-morrow morning. A motion was then made to adjourn, when loud cries came up froin all parts of the hall for enator Schurz. He came forward, when Mr. Scovel, of New Jersey, advanced to the front ot the platform and proposed thiee cheers for Mr. Seburz, which were given with much vigor. Mr. Schurz said he did not want at this time to make a speech. At some future time he would have a few remarks to make. Just now be preferred that delegates preseut should adjourn and get ready for business. ‘The fitst of M was moving day. [Laughter.) And this co: vention was here for the purpose of removing What was obnoxious to honest common-sense American people. ‘The convention then adjourned. The Probable Programme. (Special Dispatch to The Evening Star from An other Correspondent.) Crxctnnatt, 10.40 a. m,, May 1.—Davis ha- been slaughtered by the detection of Pennsy!- Vania. Trumbunil is gaining. Adams has lost a number of southern dele- gates, who will vote for Greeley. Fenton left for Washington iast night, con tient that Greeley will lead on the first ballot Whether he will run or transfer his strength to Trumbull or Adams is to be seen. (BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.) Preliminaries. Crxcrew att, May 1, 11 a. m.—A few delegates are leisurely drifting in and __ their seats. The Feporters are beginning to ill the places assigned them.
