The Michigan _delegates met this morning, and_ after patsing a resolu- lution f-pmfing ath® term, re- ceived the following report from the committee on the unit rule, which was unanimously adopted: Resolved, By the delegation from the state of Michigan to the republi- cat national convention, that we re- spectfully request the national com- mittee not to adopt the so-called unit 8 being in _violation of the uni- practice of the republican party, Resolved, That a copy of this reso- lution be handed to General Heath, to be presented to the national com- el ‘mittee. “The committee which submitted these resolutions conssted of O. D. Conger, A. H. Morrison, and Morgan Bates, and will not vote sgainst them. There wav only one dissenter to the termresotution.

Conkling then got the floor and spoke three-quarters of an hour in sup- port of the resolution. He was keen and witty, but intepsely personal, callingseveral of the recalcitrants to account by name. He with & pointed shot at Geo. William Curtis and si i that he appeared as a peraonal cham- pion of the ex-president, whom he said he had not_seen since he left the White House. Ho had been informed that eighteen or more of the delegates had signed s pledge to violate the siructions of the state convention, whose representatives they were.

There is great rejoicing among the Sherman men over the fact that in a speech last nignt Senator Hoar, of Maseachusetts, stated that twenty-two of that state’s delegation would surely vote for Sherman.

How do you explajn your presence herv in the delegation 1” Senator Woodin repeated his ac- knowledgement to his constituents, and said he should keep his_promie not to appearin the convention. He asserted, howevet, that his district, de1pite its convention, was overwhelm- ingly aganst Grant. Mr. Woodin ended hia speech in such a way as to give way to Knapp—who is to be his proxy. not the regalar alternate—who made one of the best speeches on his side. Heo did not, however, coinci with Woodin's views enti An amendmeat to the resolution was then offered by Mr. Woodin that the chair- man be instructed to ask each delegato for_his vote, and report the vote of each to the convention. Senator Conkling sgain took the floor and spoke at some length, saying that if a majority of the delegation in- structed him to ocast the whole vote of the state for a single candidate he should do 80, no matter what the minority might demand. If the latter did not submit they might appeal to the conveution and abide the result of a call of states. A vote was taken on Woodin's amendment, which was lost, and the original motion, instructing the chair- man to cast New York's seventy votes for a single candidate, was adopted by 45 to23. Levi P. Morton wasadmitted to the delegation Lo represent Solon Smith, of the Tenth district. Conkling escaped from the room ly. inatantly sfter adjournment, aud held a leves in tho adjoining parlor.

At the Palmer house the colored delogates beld a meeting at 8 p. m., and presented Senator Bruce a floral horse-shoe, and announced him as the colored peoj candidate for vice president. Williams, of Ohio, made the presentation speech. Seator Bruce replied with & simple, ““I thank you.” During the speaking the corridors aud stairs were 80 crowded that a jam occurred. The crowd had to be cleared away by the police, and there were serious fears of the people being crowded to deatb. Blaine's Manager Talks. Bpecial Dispatch to The Bee. Cutcaco, June 2—1 s. m.—The Hon. W. E. Chandler says that Blaine will have an actual strength of over 300 on the first ballot, though this may not be counted for him on ac- count of complimentary votes to be given, but which would not be if there was any daoger of Grant's nomination. Chandler says that Blaine’s full stazt- ing strength will not be given until the second ballot. He will gradually increase till nominated. SHERMAN'S STRENGTH. The Sherman mea refues t0 make figures.

Of course the meeting of the national committee this morning was the chief centre of interest and the halls in the neighborhood of the committee room were packed with people anxious to obtain news.

Special Dispatch to Tho Bee. Cmicaco, June 2, 1. m.—The con- test in the national committee is end- ed at last, 80 _far as the committee is concerned. Theresult has beena com- promise whereby both the Grant and anti-Grant managers have agreed to leave all matters of controversy as to the enforcement of the unit rulein the organization of the convention to the discretion of Senator Hoar, of Mass- achusetts, whom both have sgreed shall act as temporary chairman of the convention. ~ Both sides have made cunceesions. The Grantmanagers have yielded the point for which they so long_contended, that the unit rule should be enforced in the organization of the convention, because it is well known that Senator Hoar is opposed to that rule and will undoubtedly rule against it. The Grant men also re- considered their plan, which they held up to Monday night, to a make & con- test of temporary chairmanship, Conkling, Cameron and Logan having pledged themselves not to counten- ance any attempt to run an opposition candidate to Mr. Hoar. BLAINE'S CONCESSIONS. The Blaine men have given ap thelr determination of deposing Don Cameron from the chairmanship of the committee, and have mads conces- sious in regard tothe admission of the contesting delegates to_take part in the temporary organization. Practi- - | cally they have conceded, so for as the committeo is concerned, the whole Oook county controversy, which for three days and until Monday was al- most the sole topic of talk on the part of the Blsine men, and was ssserted to be the leading issue on which the anti-Grant men_intended to make a fight.

New Yok, June 1—1 ». m.— Private dispatches have been received in this city annoupeing that Richard Connolly, formerly county clerk, and afterward comptroller of New York city under the Tweed regime, died in Marsailles last evening most unex- pectedly to most of Connolly's friends, they not being aware of bis being seriopaly ill, conceded that Senator Logan was right in excluding the county delegates, nor have thoy conceded that what sre known as the Farwell ha'l anti-Grant delegates shall be excluded from the convention, but they have agreed to Tet the convention settle that question instead of the committee. COOK COUNTY CASE SETTLED. They have consented that the Grant. delegation and not the Farwell del gation shall be adriitted to partici in the organization of tne convention. —tnat is to say, they decided to ad- ‘mit the regular state delegation which has the endoreement of the Springfield convention, thereby ranking the coun- ty antiGrant and the delegates as contestants, whose claims are to be considered by the national convention. This concession on the part of. the Blaine men will give Grant some add1- tional votes. A QUEER MEETING. The meeting of the committee was a uliar one in many respects. It ssted almost continuously from 11 o’clock in the morning uatil 6 o’clock In the evening. Tom Keogh, secretary of the com- mittee, said that there wasnot & mo- tion made or a resolution voted on, orbardly a speech mide. The meet: ing was simply a succession of confer- ences with frequent recesses to allow the managers to consult with their friends outside. WHY THE GRANT MEN WEAKENED, It was known when the committee met that the thirty anti Grant mem- bers at & caucus held early in the morn- inghad determined to depose Don Cameron, unless he acceded to the de- mands of the anti-Grant members, and especially pledge himself not to enforce the unit rule. ‘The knowledge of this caucus and its determination was undoubtedly thecause of the rymor which was started after the committeehad been in session about an hour, to the effect that the committee had really deposed Chairman Cameron. As s matter of fact there was little_exhibition of bit- terness of feelng in the committee yesterday. A night's rest cooled the passions of Monday evening and the ‘managers of both factions inthe morn- ing were thorough y convinced that neither could afford to force s vote, agroed wpon - Thi foung wa agely upon. This feeling was ly |ummfiy outside pressure, brought to bear upon individual members of the committee, in the shaps of private letters and telegrams from all over the country against » prolongation of the contest. WHO DID WIN? The compromines finally agreed to were the result of consultation and Dot the outcome of the former contest in the committee. By the course pur- ied test votes were avoided and both sides are enabled to claim that they have carried thelr point. After the compromise bad been agreed upon the committee adjourned to meetat the call of the chairman. The announce- ment of the result had a noticeable ef- fect upon delegates, and crowds of politicians were swarming about the corridors and committee rooms in the Palmer house and Grand Pacific. The fellowers of the several factionsdo not seem to know exactly what this action of the committee means or which side has won. These questions were the ‘most prominent topics of controversy last night. There was very noticeably less of the angry feeling which showed itself s0 plainly Monday. WHAT THE SECRETARY SAYS, Hon. Thos. Keogh, of North Caro- lina, secretary of the national commit- tee, expressing his views of the sit: tion to the agent of the national asso- ciated pre's, said: ““The action of the committee means that all controversy over the unit rule and contested del tion. We are satisfi tion. Scnator Hoar is ‘we are willing to trust to his judgment on all the preliminzry questions, and are ready to test our strength in th coavention. Grant bas a mojorit; without the unit rule. Hehay 395 votes.” Roporter—Are you sure of that number? Keogh—We were sure of them day before yesterday and I don’t think we shall lose any of them. Furthermore, I think thece will be some unexpected breaksin several delegations which will surprise the public. Rep.—Will the national committee meet sgaint Keogh—I thmk not. There is no reason why it should. It has nothing more to do, but will, of course, meet on the call of the chairman. German Protest Againss Grant.
