Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. Carcaco, June 22.—It is an awfully hard thing to reform a broken line, especially when a superior force is pressing hard upon victory. But such things have been done and it is not impossible for the broken lines of the anti- Cleveland forces to be brought into some sort of shape again. Yesterday, after a series of disasters, the anti-Cleveland people considered that they were defeated and no one undertook tgexpress a doubt that Cleveland would be nominated on the first ballot. The vice presidency and the platform were the only things felt to be open to discussion. Even the vice presidential nomination was re- graded by most persons as being practically ‘ettled by s compact between Whitney and the Indiana delegation until late in the day, when the fact was developed that the Cleveland folks did not want to keep the compact and were shifting about for some other then Gray for the second place. Up to the hour of the adjournment of the convention yesterday the unti-Cleveland peo- ple gave no sign of revival. They were hope- loss and there was no thought of further oppo- sition to the inevitable except on the part of the Towa delegation, who were found to be loyal to Boies as a matter of pride, and of the New York delegation, who were in a position where they had to keep up their opposition. There was every evidence that a ballot taken at any time during the first day of the convention would have resulted in the nomination of Mr. Cleve- land by such a vote as to make the opposition merely formal and insignificant. Last night, however, the anti-Cleveland peo- ple had rallied so far as to throw into the field an opposition to Mr. Cleveland with more ac- tivity amd more desperate earnestness in it than there has been heretofore, though not having the strength in numbers which it had before Mix. Gorman deserted. é A NEW ARSAULT, ‘The anti-Clevelandites got together and de- termined to undertake the seemingly imponsi- ble. The first move in this direction was seri- ously suggested at $ o'clock in the afternoon yesterdpy, but it took no definite shape until late at night and it was tending toward morn- ing before it began to assume what appeared to be serious proportions. Some of the promi- nent leaders, not delegates, who had come here todefeat Mr. Cleveland, and particularly to work for Gorman, had packed up their grips, paid their hotel bills and were about to start for home, having no further interest in the pro- ceedings of the convention, when they were stopped by the appeals of the New York and South Carolina delegations with the suggestion that possibly something might yet be done to defeat Mr. Cleveland. Encouragement was given to the action by the fact that the Cleve- land gave intimations of a purpose to press the claims of the Syracuse delegates be- of Anti- i;| where were assembled the great Tammany fore the committce—a purpose they had previ- ously announced the abandonment of—and by the indication that the compact with Indiana might not be kept. Early in the evening at the meeting of the committee on credentials a resolution of- ered by Gen, Bragg of Wisconsin set- ting an hour when the Syracuse delegates would be heard ai to their claims to seats in the con- vention was adopted. The regular New York delegation got some of the leading anti-Cleve- land men with them at their headquarters at the Auditorium and began a canvass of the prospects of reviving the opposition to Cleveland. A large number of delegates who had hour by hour become more deeply satisfied with the idea of being routed before the convention had actu- -| ally begun began to rally about the stubborn New York delegation and the work of reforming was kept up all night. The scene was one of great activity and from 9 o'cock until morning more earnest and hard work was done than has been before since the battle began. , Delegates by twos, threes and dozens were marched into the private room of Mr. Croker, chiefs and a number of leading southern men. Those delegates who were willing to pledge themselves to stand out against Cleveland to the end of the convention signed a roll, aid for awhile the list grew very rapidly. Before 11 o'clock within ten votes of enongh to lock the convention had pledged themselves and they declared this morning that they were going to prevent Cleveland's nomination if these pledged delegates stand by them.

They have several moves designed to draw in additional votes. They are still looking on Tiinois and Arkansas, with no counting as to the latter and the chances against them as to the former, though they had Arkansas practically solid on Monday. The delegation went over to Cleveland after Gorman's withdrawal, and up to the time of the meeting of the convention this morning they had been unable to dete mine whether or not it could be drawn back. 3. P.M —. EARLY MORNING SCENES. In Chicago Before the Opening of the Con- vention Today. Curcaao, June 22.—The New York delegation was still clinging this morning to a last des- ‘Special Dispatch to "The Evening Star. Cuicaao, June 22.—The contest over the seats in the District tion before the committee on credentials last night was lurid and exciting. Both Dickson and Norris had to be called to order for unparliamentary language, and the general aspect of the occasion was like a local Political convention. The outcome was the de- feat of Dickson and the seating of Davis and Norris, It was Inte when the committee took the case. Dickson was present to claim principally that Norris was not regularly elected and was will- ing to concede that the Davis credentials were regular. He claimed that Norris had been elected by the invasion of 120 negro toughs,who took possession and ran the machine at Norris’ dictation. The question was put at him how it was that Davis’ selection was regular and that of Norris irregular? This was not answered satisfactorily, where- upon the Michigan member of the committee moved that a vote be taken forthwith and that Davis and Norris be seated. Dickson pleaded for time and that the other side be heard. He was supported by Bourke Cockran, who wanted Dickson's anti-Cleveland vote in the convention if a fight were made against Cleveland. At this stage it was evident that the commit- tee was strongly against Dickson. Mr. Norris, however, took the floor and it did not take him long to get worked up in the line | of personal argument. He reviewed the record of the District convention, the manner in which he and his had been chosen and cited the fact that Dickson had told him repeatedly before the primaries that hp did not intend to run. Then he took up the charges against his personal character made by Dickson. Hesaid:*‘For several years I have been the treasurer of the demo- cratic congressional committee and have been associated with a leading bank and several in- surance companies at the national capital. Would Ibe continued in these positjons if I were such a rufian andscoundrel as you have been told by that brute” (pointing to Dickson). Norris was at once called down for his un- parliamentary language, but the Colorado dele- gate suggested that in his section it was not necessary to appeal to parliamentary files when such language was used. The further proceedings were more tem- perate. Harry Davis addressed the committee and described how Dickson had held the tickets and badges yesterday, preventing himeelf and Norris from occapying their seats in the con- vention. “Aside from the merits of the case,” said Mr. Davis, ‘no gentleman would have dope it.” A great deal of time had been occupied by the exchange of personalities and the chairman put the question. By a vote of 50 to 8 Davis and Norris were declared entitled to their seats. Mr. Dickson thereupon gracefully yielded up the little box containing tickets and badges and the great tempest in a teapot subsided. PM na St DILATORY PRACTICES.
