Immediately after the adjournment of the democratic convention at Chicago yesterday the committee on resolutions met in the room set apart for it in the convention building and organized by electing Thomas F. Bayard of Delaware, ex-Secretary of State under the Cleveland administration, chairman of the committee and C. H. Jones of Missouri secre- tary. After the roll of states was called a member of the committee expressed the conviction that it would be unwise for the committee to hold its sessions amid such wretched surroundings, as the floor of the committee room was water- J.

SHIFLDS, CHAIRMAS IOWA DELEGATION. ped throngh the flimsy roof of the convention Another member stated that the Union League | Club of Chicago extended an invitation to the | committee to meet in the more salubrious at- mosphere of the parlor of that elub. Before this invitation was acted upon, Mr. Crafts of Ilinois, who averse to the com- receiving courtesies from a club e made the point, secretly, to various. members that it would be better to meet in the Iroquois Club, the well-known democratic club of Chi yone Was present, however, who had ity to tender an invitation on the part of considerable embarrassment as to where the committee would find an appropriate meeting | _ ly Chairman Brice of the national com- mittee, who had been aware of the situation, entered the room hastily, and, asking to ad- dress the committee, stated that he would be glad to have the committee on resolutions meet in the parlor of the Palmer House, which had been reserved for thenational committee. “You n have these parlors,” said he, “for your ex- ive use until you complete vour labors.” this invitatiou was accepted by acclamation, and the committee, having extended its thanks to the Union League Clab for its kind invite- tion adjourned until 5 p. m. e Several resoluti were introduced, but action thereon wasedeferred until the next meeting of the committee. Most of these re- rred to the tariff and silver questions, the tariff resolutions being of a decidedly radical aracter, ard declaring in substance for tariff for revenue only. There were half a dozen resolutions introduced on the financial qnes- | tion, those from the silver states and some of the southern states being emphatic declarations for the free and unlimited coinage of silver, but those from the eastern states usually dis- posed of the subject by a demand for “honest money.” ‘The following resolution sent:in by Repre- sentative Bacon of New York. which has been ved by the democratic members of the committee on banks and banking of the national House of Representatives, of which committee Mr. Bacon is chairman, was introduced: Resolved, That we recognize that the na- tional banking system under existing laws, and partly by reason of the diminished amount and increased price of the bonds of the United States, has become inadequate to the needs of ple, and we pledge the democratic part to such amendment and alteration of the laws relating to banking as will afford to all localities the opportunity to supply themselves with ade- quate banking facilities, and a safe, elastic and properly distributed currency.” ¢ world’s fair was the ibject of a lively discussion in the committee in the evening. Congressman Durborrow, chai of the com- mittee on world’s Columbian exposition of the ‘ional House of Representatives; John P. Altgeld, democratic candidate for governor of | Illinois: President W. T. Baker of the world’s fair directors, Director Lyman J. Gage and sev- eral other gentlemen appeared before the com- mittee and argued extensively in favor of the adoption of a plank in the platform favoring just recognition and a substantial appropria- tion for the benefit of the world’s f: BUILDING THE PLATFORM. Chairman Jones’ silver plank was said to bean ingeniously contrived compromise declaring in favor of an honest dollar and conceding to the silver sentiment all that the republicans’ Minne- apolis platform did. This, however, did not by any means satisfy the pronounced silver men, though the wrath which they had been nursing was not a little curbed by it. The plank was expressively summed up by Senator Daniel of Virginia as “shining in several directions.” DON M. DICKSON IN THE CHAIR.—From Chicago Herald. The silver men, notably their, leader, Patterson of Colorado, were disposed to iplomatic and not belligerent for the time being at least.

Mr. Watterson ended his speech by » mag- nificent tribute to the worth and ster! ing integ- rity of John @. Carlisle, Kentucky orite son. Allthisand much more Mr. Watterson said, but as the meeting was held behind closed doors the entire speech was not obtainable. Ever and anon, when Mr. Watterson made a telling point, the hot, stifting room rang with cheers, which were answered by shouts from the crowds of Kentuckians who besieged the headquarters, waiting for what few tickets were ft. Just ax Mr. Watterson finished his speech the impatient crowd burst open the doorg and surged around the perspiring orator. It was a | dramatic scene, but Mr. Watterson waved his hands right and left and quickly elbowed his ‘way out into the open corridors. ‘Three cheers for Cleveland and Watterson,” Some one shouted, and they were given with @ vim such as only enthusiastic Kentuckians can give expression to. ‘The balance of the delegates came out soon after. All wore «miles of contentment and sat- isfaction. They hurried away to the conven- tion, as the hour of noon was approaching. “No formal vote was taken as to reference, said John B, Casselman, ‘‘but the delegation without doubt, solid for Cleveland and he will receive Kentucky's twenty-six votes solid. Mr. Carlisle has expressed a wish that his name be not presented and his wish is law with us. Mr. Cleveland will be nominated on the first ballot.”” Mr. Watterson declined to serve as a member of the committee on platform.

The plank was amended shghtly at the suggestion of Clayton E. Graf speaker of the ois house of representatives and the Ili- nois member of the committee, and as subse- p seroe J recommended to the subcommittee on formulation, ix us follows: “We commend the common school system, which had its birth under democratic adminix- tration and has stood the test of many years of oF 0} eedom of education and for that right of the parent to control the teaching of his child which is necessary to maintain civil and re- ligious liberty. Its natural interpretation as a ciation of the past republi isk states of Illinois and as an effective means of attracting the and other sectarian votes in those state: ‘The committee received with marked favor the following resolution adopted by the con- ference of the silver state delegations and intro- duced in the committee by one of their tepre- | sentatives: \ We denounce the demonetization of silver | by the fraudulent legislation of a republican si-denun- ion an the THE BOWERY BRANCH OF TAMMAS s ago Herald. ‘Congress in 1873 as a crime against the people | ‘one of the long line of acts by which that | party has systematically taken the money and Property of the country from the producers and toilers for the benctit of the capitalists and creditor classes, “We therefore demand the immediate repeal of all laws discriminating against the coinage of silver on equality with gold and demand the restoration of silver tothe position and fall legal status occupied by ft from the foundati of the government until its demonetization. SUGGESTIONS, On the call of members for suggestions va- rious additional resolutions were introduced. One of these demands the repeal of the 10 per cent tax on state banks, so as to enable state banks to compete with national banks, and an- other disposes of the vexed question of liquor legislation as follows: “We denounce the resort to unconstitutional laws in several of the states for the purpose of suppressing evils by interfering with the rights people,which they have not surrendered to either the state or national government.

FLOWER Says, The Tammany meeting yesterday at the Au- ditorum was a very gloomy gathering. Gov. Flower was met immediately after leay- ing the room where the New York delegation was in session. ‘here is nothing to be said,” he replied to the question put to him, “but rou may take itfor granted that opposition to Mr. Cleveland has seen no reason to believe that has not a good fighting chance of winning. “It is said that yoh propose to withdraw Hill governor, You were quoted as the authority ‘or that statement in the uuti-snapper meeting this morning.” ‘Well, Lam willing that Mr. Hill should be withdrawn, although I have authorized nobody to make such a statement for me. My position is just this: i at Cleveland cannot carry New York, and we want the democrats to name some man—any man--who can carry the tov. Hill's friuds are not selfish. If there is some other man upon whom those dele- gates can unite who are thoroughly satisfied that Cleyeland is an impostibili we will go to him, “ There is talk to-da’ Boies.

I came here for peace, not for war. But I am not the man who ought to place Mr. Cleveland upon his own platform and I cannot consent to be a party to placing him on a platform stultifying him as to the record. As I said, Mr. Cleveland is a plat- form to himself. Both his personality and his opinions are nnescapable, We desired to straddle the silver not mount or ride our straddle with any grace or safet Mr. Watterson stated that he had offered his colleagues that if they would pass a resolu:ion instructing him to vote to em! land's great tariff message of 1887 and his fa- mons Iver letter of 1891 a form bY would go upon the comm his best to serve the party and the countr; ‘This the delegation very properly and. wisely Aeclined to do, and there the matter ended.

The committee was much interested to learn that the last new rules adopted by a national democratic convention were adopted in 1852. THE SILVER QUESTION. ‘The silver states had another caucus yester- day, and, in view of Senator Gorman’s refusal to permit the use of his name as a candidate for residency, decided to cast their vote for Gov. ies of Towa. A subeommittee was appointed headed by ex-Senator Thomas Patterson of Colorado, for the purpose of presenting the silver view of the western delegates to the com- mittee on resolutions. It was furthermore decided in case th plat form committee refused to recommend coinage bi-metallic plank that an appeal should be taken to the convention. ence of throwing the support of the silver states to the people's party in case the democratic convention should not comply with the demands of the silver interests, and it is probable that representatives of the silyer states will wait upon thé convention of that party at Omaha on Tuly 4 with that purpose in view.
