National Union Convention.
CINCINNATI, May 19.—Over 5,000 people have been attracted to the city by the National Union convention, but just how many of these are regular delegates cannot be determined until the committee on credentials gets to work. Last night's arrivals included Senator Peffer of Kansas; Robert Schilling, of Milwaukee, the Wisconsin Socialist leader; Hon. A. J. Streeter, of Illinois, and Ignatius Donnelly. The latter, referring to the announcement that the delegation of his own appointment is to be contested by a delegation named by the state committee of the Minnesota Farmers' Alliance, says that the state committee had no power in the premises, and that he has no fear that the convention will expel either himself or his followers.
