Sheridan Is so much Improved and has boon tooling so com fortable and encouraged nil day that tho doo tors and friends havo caught tho infoctlon nnd aro actually talking of rocovory. Not a slnglo unfavorable symptom has dovolopcd to-day. Dr. Lincoln callod at tho houso this afternoon and this foot at onco started a rumor that tho General was worse. Anxious and hasty in quiries wore mado, and It has boon learnod that Dr. Lincoln wbb not Bum monod but simply callod owing to tho lntorost which ho takos In tho enso. Ho agreed to call Inter to attend tho af tornoon conference and did so, signing tho bulletin with Dr. O'Bollly. It was roportod at this con sultation that all tho symptoms of the pntlont woro tnoro favorablo than on any day slnco ho was taken sick. His pulso, nt all times high, was normal, respiration easy, kidneys and liver working proporly. This condition of things was surprising oven to tho doctors, and ono of them said to-day that when ho saw tho Goneral sloeping ns sweetly as a baby it wns hard to believe that he had boon and Is very ill. Col. Kellogg is still sanguino and the good nows to-day made him more so. As ho ran cheerfully down tho stops nftorthonftcrnoon bullotln was issued ho said to a friend: "Ono more good day llko this nnd wo will begin to think tho Goneral is convalescent" Mrs. Shoridan has gained n groat deal of rest to-day, and is feeling hopeful nnd strong. Tho children woro nllowod to seo their father for a brief tlmo to-day, and their little visit to the sick room did the Oenhral good. Thero can be but little talking, but tbo sight ot their fresh, sweot fncos gives tho slek man pleasure. This afternoon tho children wero out on tho lawn playing cioquot. Porhnps their lun and frolic woro most reassuring to tho reporters on tho corner. Thoy soon after left their watch, and tho policemen who had spant tho Inronoon In the vicinity of tho houso also wont olT duty. To-night at 9 o'clock the favorablo conditions continue. Mrs. Sheridan nnd ninny ot tho watchers nro llkoly to get some rest. Mrs. Sheridan has been out of tho houso but onco or twlco during her husband's Illness. A week ngo she went out for u short drive in tho oven ing with a friend In an open carriage The drivo refreshed her greatly. To-day she is again very hopeful. Tbo General's wonderful courage of course is a help to her, as her cheerful fnco Is also a hlossingto him. Slnco tho almost fatal relapse of Monday afternoon, tbe General has recovered his good looks, and to-day his countennnco is bright and natural, with a good color. His lllnoss lias given him but Httlo pain, thoreforo he does not grow thin and worn, as might bo oxpected. Ho has known whon the attacks wero about to como on. Sometimes he would say, " Doctor, it's coming up again." When easier he would sny, " Dootor, It's going down a Httlo now." In this simple and direct manner ho roferrod to the "heart failure" attacks, threatening tho agony of suffocation. Tho statement in tho morning bullotln. " Thero is no oedoinn In tho legs." Is regarded as very favorable by most pooplo ; but It is not so regarded by outnido physicians, who say if it is not in tho legs it should be, as It is less dangerous, nnd could bo relieved bv tnpplng. At 11 o'clock this ovenlng tho lights in tho sick room wero burning low, and It was said that the General wns dozing. Mr. Sheri dan left tho house about 9 o'clock and took a half-hour's drlvo about tho neighborhood, using, to avoid attracting nttentlon, tho publlo cab which Is kept constantly in waiting. Other members ot tho family spent an hour or more Bitting upon the front poroh in unconstrained comersntlon.

Compelled an Adjournment Until To-day, St. Louis, Juno 0, Grovcr Cleveland is again tho Domocrntio candldato for President of tho United Status. Tho nomination wns mado with a unanimity unparallclod In nny formor Democratic Convention. It oxcitod a display of enthusiasm surpassed only by the scenes witnessed in Chicago whon Jnmos O. Blaine was placed In nomination by tho ite publlcans four years ago. It was a Cloveland jubilee Not a dissenting votco was hoard. G rover's namo was chocrod to tho echo, and the delogates sat down apparently nt peaco with themsolves and the rest of the world; but there was somothlng elso to bo considered, and tbe loaders have accordingly called a halt on tho Convention. Tho city la llko a hooted oven. Through tho cloud of smoko overhanging it tho Bun looks llko a copper ball. It was hot in tho Conven tion, hot in tho hotols, nnd, abovo all, hot In tho Commlttoe on Resolutions. Tho fiery ltuport of Kentucky wus on his metal, and he mado things lively tor all concerned. Tho con servative cloment ot tho oommltteo stood like tho Puritans nt Nasoby, and repelled all tho ehnrgos ot the Prince of Froo Trado. At dark tho victory was not yot won, and thero is a prospect that the fight will not bo settled until attor midnight Bill Scott is quiet, but confident He is handling tbe lasco llko n political expert, nnd It looks as though ho would havo tho loop over Watterson's horns before tho Convention re assembles. It is tho old strugglo in commit too. Tho conservatives want the platform ot ISM remodelled on tho basts of the President's message, nnd the Eentucklan wants an antl tarlft plank ovon moro radical than tho ono used in the Hancock campaign of 18S0. Every offort Is being made to keep tho fight from tho floor ot tho Convention. The tusslo is a furious ono. but tho chances are that it will end, as In 1881, with a platform so broad that oil can stand upon it in penco and harmony. Tho Convention met at 10 o'clock. Tho build ing was packed with humanity, and the ulr was stifling. Ladies in white dresses wore the foaturos ot tho platform and of tho gnllerlos. Many mon took oft tholr coats and devoted their enorglos to mopping tholr faces. Hun dreds sat in their shirt sleeves. Tho waving of fans was liko the undulations of the sen. Thurman's bandannas still swung from gui dons of various StatOB. Thero was littlo air, and thoy hunc limp and lifeless like phrjglan caps. A solitary gray handkerchief adorned tbe guidon ot Indiana. Arkansas, California, Iowa, Maino, Michigan, Mississippi, Novndn, Now Hampshire Now Jorsoy, Wisconsin, Vir ginia. Wost Virginia, Pennsylvania, Oregon, nnd Ohio still carried the Thurmnn colors nt their mastheads. Bed bnndannns peeped from festoons ot bunting and other draperies adorn ing the hall. It was evldont that too popular fooling on bohalt of the Grand Old Man of tho Bopubllo was too doop sontod to be uprootod. The sosslon was oponod with prayor. The delcgatos did not show tbo dovotion of tho pre vious day, for thoy remained soatod. After the prayer the reports of tho Committees on Cre dentials and Pennant Organization were read. The soloctlon of Gen. Patrick A. Collins for pormanent Chairman soemed to givo Intonso satisfaction. As ho was conducted to tbo chair by William H. Barnum nnd ltoswoll P. Flower he was loudly choored. The Massachusetts delegates wero exceptionally pleased. Thoy arose, swung tholr hats, and gavo him three rousing verbal volloys. Tho silver gavel was still lu tho custody of tho California delegation, so tho General seized an old-fashioned Masonic gavel aud pounded for order. Ho Is a man of ordinary sizo. with brown hair, a silver gray moustache nnd an intellectual fnco. His eyes are bluo and sot far apart His look and mannor nro ploasing and attrnctho. Tho ladios seemed to regard him with absorb ing intorest. Ho spread a printod copy of his Bpeecb upon the desk and began to address tho Convention in faint nnd measured terms. Cries of "louder" woro hoard. Tho Goneral elevated his voice, and ns ho warmed up in his delivery his ornate and classical sontencos woro utterod in tonos so cloar and sil very that nil could hear thorn. Tho nuotntlonn wero well choson and effective He recalled tho closo of Abrahnm Lincoln's speech nt Gettysburg whon he spoke of n "Govern ment of the pooplo, by tho people, and for the people." But tho most pat quotation of alibis quotations wns the ono so ofton used by tbo Campbolllto Church, of which Prosldont Gar field was so great a light" In essentials unity, in non-eesontials harmony, and in all things charity." Whon he closed tho Convention got down to business. Tho usual raft of resolutions came to tho front. Awild-ejod delognte from Mis sotirl sont a long frco trade screed to tbo desk. It was read by Clerk Pottlt of the Houso of Boprosentotlvos to the evident fatigue of tho delegates. But It was so freighted with dele torious adjoctlvos that it was bard to arrive at Its meaning. When it was referred to the Commlttoo on Bosolutlons a wise delegate got tho floor. On bis motion the Convention d fi eld od that all similar resolutions should be roferrod without reRtllng. Just nftcrword Congressman Ttmothy J. Campbell nont up a resolution, which was promptly turnod over to tho committee Tim othy protostcd in vigorous terms. He said that it had no bearing on tho platform, and he asked unanimous consent for its reading. Half a dozen objections were raised. Timothy, bowovor, was too old a political campaigner to be swept from his feet without good cnuso. He kept the floor, nnd insisted upon his rights and carried tho day. Tho resolution wus road by order of the Chairman. It proved to bo n reso lution of sympathy with Gen. Philip II. Shori dan In his sickness. A rising vote was takon upon it. The Chair decided that It was carried unanimously, although a number of the Mis sissippi contingent remained seated. Tbe clerk next read tbe usual woman's right potltloa tor a hearing. There wns some scoff ing, but gallant Joseph J. Donohue of New York city enmo to the rescue, and the hearing wns granted. It was llmltod to ten minutes. Mrs. II A. Morrlmnn of St. Louis camo to the front of the platform. She U a pleasant faced Udy, about 10 years old. She wore a black chip hat with jot trimmings fnd a trail lap. veil, A Wiled Trait c&Uu Burrounfai. fcer , JliUMlMIJJJIasJUfairMiriaaoaiii I ill nn n i i , nock. Hor dress was striped alpnoa, with sloevos bunched at tho Bhouldors. Her bustle was ot modest size A cotton handkerchief with rod dots nostlod at hor hip. Ebon earrings tipped with gold, a gold breast pin, a long gold chain, and n plain gold wedding ring wero hor solo dis play of jowelry. Sho woro long black mlts nnd a pair of stool-rlmmod spoctaclos. Sho faced her ten thousand hearers without flinching. In n volco that could not bo hoard ten foet sho bo gan to address thorn. The dologntos took the infliction with tho utmost good nnturo. Thoy npplnudod whenever tho good lady's gostures Bhowod that sho expected applause and main tained sllonco at tho rap ot thognvol. Whon her ten minutes wore up sho pleaded so elo quently for a littlo moro tlmo that tho Chair man granted her two minutes moro. At the end of her speech sho smiled sweetly and grncofully retired. After her disappearance an offort was mado to got tbo Convention to adjourn, but It signally failed. Editor Hensol of Philadelphia moved that tho nominations for the Presidency be made Tho motion was promptly carriod. Thero was much oxcltoment whon th Secre tary began to call tho roll "Alnbama."ho shoutod. A woll-knlt Democrat with bushy gray hntr aroso bonoath a guidon and sold that Alabama tendered her right to mako a nomina tion to Now York. Tho oxcltomont roachod a high pitch when a tall gentleman with curling lockB ot iron gray and snowy sldo whiskers left tho Now York roservo and began to mount tho stops loading to tho rostrum. Ho was tho renowned Daniel Dougherty, lato of Philadelphia, who placed Gen. Hancock In nomination in 18S0. Ho carried half ot a lomon in each hand, and laid tho pieces on the desk as he roachod tho plat form. Then he drew his epeeoh from the toll pocket of his buttonod and neatly fitting black frock coat, and covered a section of the lomon with it. Thus prepared ho thrust his left hand into the breast of his coat, and faced tho mnltl tudo. The blood red badge of a delegate adorned his broast He stood tall and straight llko a Norway pine. By his diroction the desk had boon moved to the loft to givo him full scope for action. For nt least forty seconds bo cazod at the vast audience Thon he began to speak, slowly and distinctly. Ho hardly lanced nt his speech. It was evldont that ho md got It by hoart His gestures wero toned to the sontiments expressed, and his tall tig tire lengthened when ne made his finest Mights of eloquence. Ho showed the studied grace of an orator, combined with tho ability of a great actor. Tbo delegates from tho Wost and irom tho South wero entranced. All wero mag netized by the matchless spell of the orator. Every eye was riveted on him, ond every ear was strained to hoar him. " I am here! said he. " to namo tho next Prosldont ot tho United States." Wild cheers tilled tho hall. "Now York plodgos him hor electoral vote," he con tinued. Another ecstatic outburst followed. " I am not bore to nominate a oandidato." he said, " but only to namo ono already nomi nated by tho pooplo." Agnln waves of raptur ous applauso ran ovor the hnIL Tha assertion thut " to lower tho tariff was not free trade." was greeted with reduced enthusiasm. It was a olasslo spoech magnificently dellvored. Whon the orator reached his peroration and cut Grover Cleveland in nomination, tbo re straint of his audience passed nil bounds. A Cloveland tempest burst over tho hall. Ten thousand throats were opened and ten thou sand hands began to wave huts, hnndkorchlefs, and whatovor came handy. Tho tempest In creased in intensity. Tho Thurmnn men seized the opportunity. Haunted tbelr bandannas, and made a red sen of tho Conontlon, The uproar wasterrlllc. Both bands struck up "Hall Co lumbia." but the nolso was so doafonlng that it was difficult to distinguish tho music. Tho tornado had lasted ten minutes when Gon. Pat Collins began to use the gavol in an effort to stop it. It was like adding fuel to the flame Suddenly a magnificent eflect was produced. A huge painting of the Capitol at Washington ndornod tho end of the hull above the gallery shading tho platform. The pictured entrance to the great building had boon veiled. The veil was drawn nsido. nnd n life-sized portrait of the Presldont appoared in tho doorway of tho Capitol. It thrilled the multitude llko a shock ol electricity. Men nnd women acted as though mad with delight Hats were thrown Into the air, regardless of their fnte; umbrellns wero opened and twlrlod until thoy resembled danolng dorvlshes. In their wild furor tho oc cupants of tbe gallorlos tore away many ot the decorations ot the hall. A score ot great gilt eagles, made of pasteboard, wero torn from their fastenings nnd thrown to the floor. Uoro they woro born aloft by willing hands and waved to and fro until a flock ot the groat frolden birds seemed to bo hovering ovor the leads of those In the body of the hall An en thusiastic supporter of Thurmnn in tho upper gallery secured ono of those Amorlcan em blems and fnbtenod n bnndanna in its beak. Then he produced a novol eflect by waving its wings over those below. With tho eagles went many of tho festooned Hags along tho front ot the galleries. They wore frantically waved In tho parquet, and olsowhere until some of those on the platform fancied thut they woro looking into a gigantlo kaleidoscope Then came tbe most remurkablo scone ot nlL As though animated by a unanimous Impulse, tbo delogatos shouldered tholr guidons and surrounded the renresontathea ot tho Democ racy of tho Excelsior Htato. The guidons wore pointed to a common centre nnd shokou over tholr heads. The delegation soemed to bo seated beneath a canopy. It was a wonderful exhibition nf tho fraternal feeling between tho States cernontod by a Domcrrulic Administra tion, Tho guidons of Massachusetts and South CaioHna woro interlocked. Vermont figura tively kissod her band to Virginia, Louislnua salaamotl to Maine, and California scratched backs with 1'Iorlda. This extraordinary seeno lasted twenty-two and ono-half minutes. Dur ing tho luror some one placed u laurel wreath on tho brow of it lino bust of tho President which stood to tho loft of tho Chairman's desk. The nomination for the Presidency was sec onded by Mr. McKenzIe of Kentucky. Ho mountod the rostrum clad In o gray cutaway suit. He wan tall and athletic, and he had tho true Kentucky faco, gontco and nil. Moreover, he had a Kontucky swing and a Kentucky dia lect Ho was Kentucky all ovor, and, like all true Kentucklnns, hu hnd considerable to say about Kentucky. He made n quaint nnd origi nal speech without notes and otlhnnd. It was llllod with slmlleB patterned altera Kentucky training, and they went straight to the heart of every mon who heard thorn. Mr. McKenrlo struck what mauy regard as tho true keynote of tthe coming canvass. It Is tho "queonly woman whom tbo President hns mndo his wife" Like u gnnulne Kentucklan, ho proposed to mnko the light undor hor ban nor, nnd to keep her In the White House four years longer. Mr. McKonzie's volco became hoarse toward the end of his oration. Iln lookod suspiciously ot the remains of Daniel Dougherty s lemon which lay on tbe desk bo fore him, anil then accepted a glass of water. A loud-voiced delegate from Arkansas shouted, "Don't givo blm anymore it will make him slek." Tho ball was convulsed with laughtor. Col. Twiggs of Goorgla followed McKenzIe In seconding the nomination. He had a written speech, nnd he delivered it In true Georgia fashion, "tooterlng" up nnd down as though balanced on n spring board. Jt was mora ormito, but not so exhilarating, as tho speech of the Koiitucklnii. Tho effect of thesn two good speeches wns dampened by nn address from Byron U. Stout ofMlchlgnu. Ho bus hair that stands up all ovor his head, nnd llko most such mon be hns a reat deal to say about himself. The delogutos stenod to blm respectfully for some time, but finally became wearied and began to " kid" him. II o retired amid mock applauso. Tuo States woro then called for other nominations. None woro made Whon Now York was reached a thousnnd voices shoutod for Cob John It, fol lows, but thoro was mi rosponso. Thero woro nls'i cries for Voorhees vthoii Indiana was reached, for Scott vlion l'onnsyh unlit was culled, and for Daniel whon Virginia was mimed. Scott wns nln-ont Uxiug his Wuttersou lurlut nnd Daniel declined. On motion of Mr. JlcKonzle Grover Clovo land wus unanimously noiulnuted for Prosldont ot the United Statos. Tho uuplouse, whon tho nomination of Mr. Clevelnnd wns ratified by tbe Convention, wus terrific, but it boro no comparison to the uproar that cruoted his name when flrot presented. After his formal nomination efforts woro made to nominntn candidates for tho Vice Presidency, buiator Dan Voorhees strenuously opposed It and madii repeated efforts to soeuro n reeusa until to-morrow. The Thurmnn men tit first opposed it, and succebfcfully. Thoy evidently thought that th" heart of tho Con vention was with thorn. Finally, howuu'r, Mr. White of California, an enthusiastic supporter of Thurmnn, made a speech favoring a recess. He said that tho nomination of a Vice-1'resl-dent would send many delegates home with out a voto on tho platform. Tills argument proved effectho. and tbo Convention took a re cess until to-morrow ot 10 A. M. Thus ended a most eventful day In the history of the Dom ocrntio party. A eiirlous coincidence of tho rcnomlnntlon of Pr.'Mdont Cleveland is the fact tli.it tho day on which lio is renominated lathe iinuiersary of the birthday of Police Justlco Andrew White, Ills friends remembered liltn.

"jijj mass as the whole body rose to its feet, and M still higher, still keener, still more shrill and Wi loud was tho blending roar ot Northern W volcos ond shrieks of Southorn tongues. jjh Higher again went both tbo visible and audible elf demonstration, as evory man mounted his K chair, making a Bpectacls of a contused, Strug- 9 gling, and Impatient concourse. In which each '. man hindered his neighbor In trying to help ';j hlmsolf up. Tbe noise was Indescribable, sot- '$M ago, barbarie Hats were flung in tbe air, and ''Ki other hats wero pushed up and spun on tha Ttfif onds of canes. The ladios in tho galleries ., H loaned ovor and downward, and the men be- jB hind them seemed bent on climbing over thorn.

Fancy such a strained condition kept jKa up for lite minutes. Evory correspondent who H hod his watch out before him doubted what its ,- M hands told him, for It seemed like half an hour in ot excitement The men on tho chairs, tha -a women bung as if by their middles over tha fy gallery rails, the lines of men and boys reach- if Ing upward toward tho roof, had all been has jr) as busy watching ono and another as In swell Ml! iug the furor.
