Although Mr. Tullock had been in bad health since March last his death was quite unexpected. When the telegram announcing bis demise was received by Assistant Postmaster F. B.

Ward yesterday afternoon and last night has to all appearance spent much of its force, and. @ reaction ts looked for by the friends of other can- didates as soon as the delegations from Cleveland and Cincinnati arrive this afternoon. Judge Hoadly clatms that of the 68 delegates from Ham- iiton county he 1s sure of 60, although the friends of Gen. Ward claim that he wiil have 28 of the delegation. It is probable, however, that Gen. Ward’s claims are somewhat large. Judge Geddes feels confident that his chances are good if there 4s no nomination made on the first or second bal- lot, which does not at this ume seem probable. ‘The most conspicuous characters about the hotels are Judge Thurman and his son, who are the leading spirits in the conduct of Gen. Ward's cause. Senator Pendleton fs on hand, and is in a quiet way doing his level best for Judge Hoadly. John G. Thompson ts working with shrewdness inorder to gain control of the party machinery.
