DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM OUTLINED The Free Silver Question to Be Straddled. DAVID B. HILL’S TACTICS ial Correspondence of The Evening Star. NEW YORK, September 21, 1898. The Star correspondent has just secured an outline of the platform which will be adopted by the democratic convention at Syracuse next week. Minority reports may be presented, but the program as arranged ut the conference of democraiic leaders just heid in this city is already agreed up- on. The Chicago platform will be indorsed by implication—that is, the committee on resolutions will not refer to the Chicago platform in so many words. But a loud- sounding plank indorsing democratic prin- ciples from the days of Thomas Jefferson down to the days of William Jennings Bry- an will be adopted. This will be of the nature of a “straddle,” but it is said to be atisfactory to the rank and file among the gold standard democrats like Roswell P. Flower and David B. Hill, who are anxious to re-enter the democratic party in good standing. The surprise in the platform, however, will not consist of the plank indorsing the historical policies of the democratic party; it will consist of a sop to the radical Bry- anites attacking trusts and monopolies. ‘This plank will bicterly attack the. “money power.” Additiona! state legislation look- Ing to the suppression of trusis, monopolies and combines, will be demanded, and the national policy of the repubiican party will be scored Resolutions will al che course pursued 1 0 be adopted favoring the democratic mem- bers of Congress leading up to the recent war with Spain. Upon the War Depart- ment a savage attack will be made for al- leged mismanagement. Upon the subject of territorial expansiva and the annexation of the Ph © Islands there is a difference of opinion, and no conclusions have yet been reached by the leaders. Many are in- clined to favor the out-Heroding-Herod pol- cy. If the republican state convention at aratogz the .day previous should adopt mild resolutions upon the subject of terri- torial expansion, these democrats favor g0- ing the 1cpublicans one better. At present this promises to be on® of the most difficult questions likely to come before the demo- crauc state convention for settlement. Hill's Clever Tacties. Ex-Senator David B. Hill was not present at this conference, though he was in New York ‘This only gives ad- ditional color to the statement that Croker and Murphy have agreed to reduce Hill to he ranks of 4 Meutenant.

It is openly charged and not denied that Hill is using Danforth to retain con- trol-of the state committee, and that at the proper time he will retire in favor of Stanchtield or some other candidate. Yet, if one thing is settled about the state con- vention, it is settled that Danforth will lead on the first ballot unless the support of Greater New York is thrown solidly against him. He is the favorite among the “favorite sons” from up the state, and n be ¢ s he is nominated his friends may pected to howl long and loud after the convention and before the convention. Talk of Van Wyek. The “Take a candidate from below the Harlem river to offset Roos larity” ery {s the principal feature devel- oped during the past forty-eight hours. It might result in the nominaticn of Mayor Van Wyck, provided the mayor would con- sent to run and provided the organiza- tiun could be induced to allow him to run. All men who hold office under Van Wyck, all men who hope to hold office under Van Wyck, are howling themselves hoarse for evelt’s. popu- the “little mayor.” Yet there is not a man jack among those shouters who does t know that the r of Van In the lever a poli- Wyck is among the impo first place, the mayor is too tician to run against a strong candidate like Theodore Roosevelt or Governor Black. in the second place, in the event of his election he would be compelled to from his position as mayor. And is worse from a democratic point of t would be necessary to hold a spe- view, cial election to arrange for a new mayor. Tammany Ha not possess pledges that the Ci Union, the Independents nd the regulars might not combine upon a candidate elect an anti-Tammany mayor of New York to succeed Van Wyck. Tammany Hall leaders have not often been accused of a lack of political shrewdn and they are not ready to shove Van Wyck into the office of governor when it might mean a republican mayor of Greater New York, especially since there are plenty of democrats who would run as well or even better in the empire state than the mayor. All this talk of Mayor Van Wyck for gov- ernor, therefore, may be regarded as mere- ly an effort on the part of certain Tam- many Hall leaders to hold the Greater New York vote together in a solid phalanx in the next state convention. SSS. CREDITED HERE. Nor The Report That Ambassador Cam- bon is Going to Vienn: The report from Paris that Ambassador Cambon will be transferred to Vienna is not credited at the French embassy here. At the same time, while a transfer to this particular post is sald to be improbable, the opinion Is growing in wel!-posted diplo- matic quarters that M. Cambon will before long take one of the European missions of the rank of Rome, Madrid or Constanti- nople. The personal preferences of the am- bassador are toward remaining in Wash- ington, as his stay here has been most con- genial and his services conspicuous, in- cluding the negotiation of the first and only reciprocity treaty under the Dingley law, and the conduct of the delicate nego- tiations leading up to the conclusion of our peace with Spain. It is rather doubt- ful, however, whether the ambassador will wish to bring Mrs. Cambon and his young daughter across the water. Their associa- tions are all on the other side, and for these personal reasons M. Cambon may find it more agreeable to take a European post rather than continue at Washington. It is the general wish among the officials of the State Department and throughout the diplomatic corps that M. Cambon re- turn to Washington and complete his term of service after his coming trip to Paris. He has made arrangements to sail by the French line on October 1. ——___—_—_++______ Think hard—isn't there something you want? Cut prices in Hoeke’s Clearing Sale of Furniture and Carpets.—Advt.

Should Observe Wants of Other Peo- ples—Attention to Details Neces- sary—Sending Out Agents. To the Editor of The Evenirg Star: During a conference at the White House with the Saratoga committee the following statement was presented to the President by Mr. F. B. Thurber, president of the United States Export Association: “Mr. President: You bave done more than any other man to protect our home mar- ket and develop our American industries, until they now produce more than we can consume, and the great problem is to widen our markets so as to keep our labor and capital remuneratively employed. “In behalf of the United States Export Association, of which I am president, an organization whose membership comprises leading houses im ninety-seven principal lines of manufacture, situated in twenty- one states, as well as other kindred asso- ciations, | would ask your earnes ation of this subject of the market American industries. It is difficult to conceive why such a plea was made, If the export association really ires a market for their goods they do not seem to have given heed to the able con- sular reports issued under the rection of for the bureau of foreign commerce. _ Thy demonstrate that there is always a demand for American goods. The troubie is, how- ever, that our exporters international trading, ¢ being iri from the field by the mor energetic mans and British. This is in- deed a sad story, but it is, nevertheless, truth. Take bic: nized fac! do not understand nsequently we ar cles for instance. It is a recog- among European countries that our wheels are far superior to any on the market. We secured a fairly good trade in the far east, but the following from Consul Du Bois will show the manner in which we do business. “Last year,” be writes. “Germany sent 3,257 commercial agents into Switzerland, and the United States sent none. The result was that Ger- many captured the cycle business, and nearly every other line of trade.” And yet American manufacturers have no market for their goods. Let us take flour for another example in the same sinall country. While Germany furnishes flour to the thrifty Swiss to the amount of 3500,000, we sent only $17,000 worth, and America such a wheat coun- try, too! That our trade in this Mne can readily be drummed up is demonstrated by the recent order of 50900 barrels from China, which was obtained by an energetic Puget Sound mill. The far east is the porters. I should Klondike of our ex- have said it would be the Klondike had we been as progressiv as we are reported to be. But we allowed the “plodding’’ German to enter, and he has staked all the claim Ex-Minister Barrett of Slam was con- stantly directing the attention of our msan- ufacturers to the great trade opportunities offered in the far east, but, notwithstand- ing his urgent appeals for us to enter the field and be “in the push,” our exporters held aloof. Now we will have tenfold more trouble in entering the fleld, because the other nations have gobbled up the butk of trade. In a very interesting report, Mr. Barrett said: “Many reports showing the great opportunities of the far east have been sent to Washington, and duly pub- lished for the benefit of the exporters and manufacturers of the United States, but still there {s a most discouraging lack of interest. I cannot too earnestly urge upon an exporters and manufacturers necessity of working to develop this s-Pacific market, with its population of 300,000,000 and its foreign trade in "97 of $690,000,000."" Yet. with all this encouragement, our manufacturers, who are Dow 80 exercised over new markets, allow these rich fields to escape them. But it is not yet too late, as witness the following order received by our exporters: Ambassador Hitchcock of Russia reports that the Manchurian railroad will use all American material in its construction and equipment. Also that elghty new locomo- tives and $3,000,000 worth of Westinghouse air brakes have been orflered from us. Japan uses all our machinery exclusively, while Germany is at present leading in China, with America a close second. The St. Louis Car Company has secured an ordet from Japan for 250 street cars, cost- ing $300,000. Our flour, cotton goods, ma- chinery, electrical supplies, canned goods, railway equipments, leather, novelties, ete. are highly regarded in Japan, and if our manufacturers will only send good, sub- stantial, honest articles they can scon re- gain lost ground. But it is not necessary to go so far to find markets for our superior goods, South America should have been our exclusive territory years ago. Yet we find Huropean powers “cutting us out” even on this ecn- tinent. Frank Carpenter, in his interesting letters to The Star, has shown us what a remarkable field we could have for our products !f we would only emulate the su cess of Germany and study the South American wants understandingly. He also shows that while the inhabitants like American goods best, we are very low on the list of internattonal competitors. Consul Plumacher, from South America, reports: “It is about time for our people to try to conquer a share of South Ameri- can trade.” He then goes on to say that while Germany and England are making hay while the sun shines, the Americans seem to be sulking in their tents. To sue- ply Brazil alone would keep many a manu- factory running at top 8; . The Buenos Ayres Herald of recent date closed a long article upon the unexplained small com- merce between the two countries as fol- lows: “We have 700,000 people fn this city alone, with great business houses conhect- ing it with all the mercantile markets of Europe, end it is for the American ex- porter to decide whether it is-worth while for them to enter our markets or stay out.” But perhaps Mr. Thurber’s society in their search for “new markets” overlooked this insignificant country. European countries would welcome our goods with open arms, first, because of their acknowledged superiority, and, seo- ond, Aas would rather purchase from us than their hated native rivals. Witness the following, written by Nantes, France: “American products are but little known here, and by energetic efforts a good mar- ket could be opened.” He then mentions a long table of goods, all of which would find a ready sale. Consul Brittain of Why, even Germany uses our machinery Consul Cole of Dresden reports that our machinery is greatly admired, but many complaints are made because of the care. Jessness with which the parts are packed. This also, by the way, seems to be great fault with our manufacturers. After they have secured a fairly good field they lose it again because of their indifference to minor details, such as packing securely, addressing properly, ete. These are not, however, the only “new markets” for our goods. In fact, every country would buy from us if the proper methods were employed. But we cannot resist the opportunity of mentioning the following “‘sure fields: South Africa, Au tralia, Malta, Bohemia, etc. All of these s for our goods, which we do not Nicaragua canal will naturally boom our foreign trade wonderfully. Wut if our manufacturers and exporters do not dem- onstrate themselves more energetic than they are at present it will have been built for the benefit of other nations. In conclusion, I woukl suggest Thurber that his society and the Natior Association of Manufacturers and the PI adelphia museums should all study the numerous reports and publications of the bureau of forefen cptumerce and imitate the successful methods of Germany. There is no necessity for burdening the President with superfluous labar tn, discovering “new markets” for our proéuct$, when such mar- kets already exist and sre always at our Gisposal. GUS. A. SCHULDT. September 15, 198., —-__ GO ‘TO BOSTON. to Mr. 1 WILL Annapolis Cadets WItl Aitend Insti- tute of Technology. The course in naval architecture estab- lished at the Naval Academy last year, under the direction of Constructor Hobson, will be discontinued, and the director or- dered to some other duty. Lieutenant Hob- son is now at Santiago endeavoring to ra the Spanish ship Colon, and at the conclu- sion of that work will return to the United States. The new course of naval architec- ture will be transferred to the Massachu- setts Institute of Technology at Boston, where there are better facilities for the purpose than at the Naval Academy. The change is made on the recommendation of Chief Constructor Hichborn, and it is be- lieved will be of benefit to the service. Eight cadets have been ordered to report to the Boston school October 1, for three years’ instruction in the art of ship build- ing. They are Ensign Powell, Cadets W. R. Du Bose, E. F. Eggert, Henry Williams, c. Watts and F. L. Pinney and two other cadets yet to be selected. Captain Dickins of the bureau of navigation has gone to Boston to make the final arrange- ments for the course, which will cost the government about $800 a year in the case of each cadet in addition to his regular pay. Heretofore this post-graduate in- struction of naval cadets has been obtained in th leading technical schools of Great Britain and France, but this privilege hav- ing been recently curtailed it was found necessary to make other arrangements, ——— COMMANDER BRADFORD'S TRIP. Will Show Commissioners Needs in the Philippines, Commander R. B. Bradford, chief of the naval bureau of equipment, will sail from New York for Paris next week for the pur- pose of consulting with the American peace commissioners regarding the _ territor: needs of the navy in the Philippine Island Commander Bradford is strongly impressed with the necessity cf having a nayal sta- tion on one of those islands, and it said he favors the retention of ail of them by the United States. He regards Palawan Island as an ideal location for a naval station, be- cause of its position, its fertility and its coal supply. He has studied the question of the establishment of a coaling station on the island of Guam, one of the La- drones, and is prepared to submit plans for the same whenever called for. The cession ot one of the Ladrone Islands to the United States will ~be considered by the Paris peace commission, and the one ceded to the United States will undoubtedly be utilized as a coaling station for the benefit of Am ican warships crossing the Pacific ocean. As 4 measure of precaution, Commander Bradford has suggested that the American commission in Porto Rico gain possession as soon as possible of any public land on the island which may be available as a site for a coaling station. Porto Rico is rec- ognized by naval officers as one of the best stragetic points in the West Indies, and plans are under constderation for the es- tablishment of a large coaling station near San Juan. i el Appointments aud Promotion: The following official ¢hanges have been made in the Department'of the Interior: Office of assistant gttorney general: Ap- polntment—James M,, North of Boulder, Col., assistant attorney, at $2,000, to fill an original vacancy.
