The Secretary of War left Warhing- ton for West Virginia several days ago and as he is interested in a bank out there he decided to take with him an assort- ment of new bills fresh from the bureau of ea- graving and printing. He purchased €12,500 worth of the green-backed promises to pay, had them wrapped up in a bundle and then took the bundle home.

There wasa feeling prevalent that per- haps after all Cleveland's nomination was not as much of @ forgone concinsion as & great many people have regarded it, It wns pretty generally agreed thet it would take more than one ballot to settle the contest, Even enthusiastic Cleveland men were not claiming that the ex-President would be nomi- nated before the roli-call was comploted the firet time, while the anti-Cleweland men took the view that there would bea prolonged and heated fight. WHAT CAUSED THE CHANOR. The change m sentiment among members of sult in Ohio yesterday, It was felt that the Cleveland men there had got decidedly the worst of it. Certain! they hed not made good the claims they made befor the convention and not even got ax much as the opposition bad boon inclined to concede them. It will be re membered that in the table of voteson the firs | ballot at Chicago given out by friends of Sen: ator Hill recently Cleveland was con- ceded thirty of the forty-six Ohio votes. Today it is suid in Cleveland quarters that only 16 of the Ohio delegates are Known to be eveland men. At the same time it is asserted that te positive Hill str pot greater than this, while the re- mainder of the delegates have vnkne ences and are just as likely to go for as for any one else, Indeed, Cleveland men take the view as to the uncommitted delegates from Ohio that ther do as to <imilar delegates from other states, that they are more apt to go to Cleveland than y one ele when they Ment there for the THE FAVORITE SON MOVEMENT. Anether circumstance which has exercised a fomewbat depressing influence on the Cleve- land enthnsiasm is the apparent success of the movement engineered by the auti-Cleveiand leaders to get the various state delega- tions to take up their “favorite sons” and cast their votes for them in the first ballot. How far this movement is going to be successful finally cannot, of course. now be told: but there are indications that it may ab- sorb a considerable number of Cleveland votes on the first ballot. thus cansing Cleveland's to fall far below what has imed for him. It is evident ‘leveland men place all. their hopes of in putting @ rough e “favorite son” program in Indiana, Mlinois, Kentuck: Towa, Vennsylvania and Maryland. They are talking it up quietly, but effectively, and Cleveland men tes are somewhat astonished to find that the “favorite sons,” most of whom have been regarded as friends of the e*-Presi- deft, seem to lend themselves to the scheme. CLAIM CLEVELAND AS sic 10%, Still the Cleveland men in the House quiet any fears they may have with the argument that these votes for favorite sons on the first ballot are merely complimentary and that Cleveland is the second choice of the majority of the delegates who will vote in this way. Having gratiied their state pride on the first ballot by complimenting the favorite sons with a vote, the delegates will turn in to serious business and nomi- nate Cleveland with a rush. Congres man John J. O'Neill of Missouri, who is one of the most enthusiastic and oa Cleveland men in the House, said today that he felt now. ax he has felt for some time, that Cleveland's nomination wasa practical certainty, and that it would be reached with ease.

When they come to me and tell me this man is a candidate and thet man iv @ candidate against me, I tell them it doem't worry me at all.
