BLIND 15 THER CHOICE Arkansas Democrats Express Preference for a Silver Candidate. Declare for Free Coinage and Oppose Bond Issues in Times of Peace. LITTLE ROCK, Ark., June 19.—The Democratic State Convention was in ses- sion until 2:15 this morning. The greater vart of the time was taken up ina hot fight over the question of expressing the ckoice for a Presidential candidate. The resolution instructing the National dele- gates for Biand was vigorously opposed by Senators Jones and Berry, but finally adopted—420 to 327. The platform makes no reference to the National administra- tion. The financial plank is as follows: We favor bimetallism, and to that end we insist upou the free and unlimited coinage of both goid and silver at a ratio of 16 to 1 as the money of final redemption, with equal legal tender powers, independent of the action of any other nation. We are opposed to the issue of interest-beer- ing bonds for any purpose in time of peace. We demand that the Government shall not surrender, but shall always exercise its lawful option to redeem its obligations either in goid or silver, as may be most convenient. We demand the repeal of the present laws discrediting the silver money of the Nation and legalizing private contracts, peyable in gold alone. Weare opposed to the Nationsl banking system, and favor only the money of the constitution, and we believe the power and duty of the Government to furnish the circu- lating medium should not be delegated to any private corporation. The delegates to the National Conven- tion were chosen as follows: At large, Senators Jones and Berry, Carroll, Arm- strong and J. T. W. Tillar; First District, Charles Coftin, John B. Driver; Second District, 8. M. Taylor, J. J. Sumpter; Third District, Panl Jones, W. Kramsay; Fourth District, J. G. Wallace, George A. Mansfield ; Fifth District, R. 8. Davidson, Phil D. Scott; Sixth District, J. W. Crockett, A. 8. Layton. —_— BOIES A1 CHICAGO. Towa’s Cholce Confers With the Mana- gers of His Campaign. CHICAGO, Irr., June 19.—Governor Horace Boies, who is the free-silver candi- date of the Iowa Democracy for first place on the Presidential ticket, arrived in Chi- cago this morning from his home in Waterloo. He spent most of the day in his room at the Palmer House attending to private business, and disclaimed any volitical mission, but'his coming was pur- posely timed so he conld hold a conference relative to the promotion of his candidacy from this center with Charles A. Walsh of Ottumwa, secretary of the State Central Comuaittee; Judge Van Wagner, who wiil be the delezate at large in place of Mr. Boies; 8. A. Brewster of Creston; J. S. Murphy of Dubuque and 8. R. Davis, who is in charge of the Boies literary bureau of the Iowa delegation to the National Con- vention. Secretary Walsh admitted to a United Press reporter that the Governor came here partly to confer with his campaign managers and see that his literary burean was put in working order and arrange for the formal opening of the Iowa head- quarters at the Palmer House on the 1st of July, Secretary Walsh said his idea was that the convention would name a ticket without regard to the free-silver Re- publican bolt, and none of the delegates would commit himself as to Teller being on the ticket. e Whitney a Delegate. NEW YORK, N. Y., June 19.—Among the delegates elected to the Democratic Convention in Saratoga to-night was Wil- GREETINGS TO THE CHIEF AT CANTON. McKinley Overwhelmed by Messages From Every State. WIRES ARE KEPT BUSY. Enthusiastic Republicans Pledge Hearty Support to the Ticket. SEE VICTORY IN NOVEMBER. Telegrams From Many Sections of the Union to the Party’s Standard- Bearer. CINCINNATI, Ouro, June 19.—Canton was awake bright and early this morning, notwithstanding the fact that a large pro- portion of the population did not cease cel- ebrating the momination of McKinley till nearly dawn. The town already takes on the temporary commercial aspect peculiar to the scene of larger gatherings. Fakirs with campaign badges and fans for sale thronged the streets, hawking their wares, and the variety of these is simply amaz- ing. Oppesite the McKinley residence a big tent has been erected, under which the hungry and thirsty wayfarers may get re- freshments at the hands of scores of ladies. The McKinley grounds presented a deso- late appearance this morning; the beauti- ful lawn, the pride and beauty of Canto- nese homes, was bare and brown as a prai- rie swept by fire. A stream of water was played upon its surface, with the hope of preserving or restoring it to its former sightly appearance. Major and Mrs. McKinley arose this morning much refreshed by a good night's rest and feeling none the worse for yester- day’s fatiguing experience. During the night a mass of telegrams had accumu- lated, covering a large desk and running into the hundreds in number. Immedi- ately after breakfast the major addressed himself to the perusal of these, and while thus engaged received a member of the commiitee in charge of the preparations for the local demonstration on the 27th inst. in connection with the Tippecanoe Club of Cleveland, and which will be really the opening of the campaign. Among the dispatches received was the following from the Vice - Presidential nominee: St. Louts, Mo., June 19, Hon. William McKinley, Canton, Ohio: Accept my hearty congratulations and those of the New Jersey delegation. GARRETT A. HOBART. To which the major replied: Hon. Garrett A. Hobart, St. Louis: 1 send you my cordial congratulations and wish you might visit me on your way home. WILLIAM MCKINLEY. Senator Allison telegraphed as follows: DUBUQUE, Iows, June 18. Hon. William McKinley, Canton, Ohio: Ac- cept my sincere and hearty congratulations upon your nomination, W. B. ALLISON. The following are sample messages: Benjamin Hickman, M.D., Crawfordsville, Ind.—The negroes of Indiana are well pleased. John T. Mack, Sandusky—Your nomination means so much for our comimon cause. Senator-elect Wellington, Maryland—Mary- 1and will give you eight electoral votes in No- vember. George Alfred Townsend, Gaplaid, Md.— Army correspondents laid their cornerstone on South Mountain, yland, while you were being nominated. Come back here, where you served hot coffee to your regiment, and dedi- cate our memorial as President-elect. 8. A. Parkins, chairman National Committee American Republic College: We will do every- thing in our power to roll up a big majority for the advocate of protection. W. C. Brown—None can be happler and prouder than the members of your steff. Colonel and Mrs. Fred Graat, to McKinley— We send you and our future President heart- felt and joyful congratulations. Russell B.

Albion Little, Portland, Me.—You are clearly the choice of the people. M. H. Eustis, Minneapolis—Congratulate our country, our party and yourself on platform and nominees. W. J. Wilson, New York—You have my hand, heart and pocket-book for President. 5 M. B. Camplin—Wyoming is happy; the Nation will be redeemed and workmen will work, Julia Dent Grant (widow of General U. 8. Grant)—Accept congratulations for yourself and Mrs. McKinley. Morris M. Estee—You will carry California. George M. Halbrook, Burlington, Vt.—It was and is a cineh. Senator Perkins—In behalf of the Repub- licans of California I greet you as the foremost defender of our party principles and congratu- late our people that you will be our next President. Benator Hawley—Noble cause and platform. Congratulations and support. Benator Lodge—All I can do to secure your triumphant election and a Republican victory will be done. Chauncey M. Depew—I have attended many National conventions, and never left one more perfectly satisfied with ticket and platform. Bishop Vincent of the Methodist Episcopal church (to Mrs. McKinley)—I appreciate as no one else can your husband’s worth, power, no- bility and tenderness. Lucretia R. Garfield (President Garfield’s widow) to Mrs. McKinley—Our two families join in earnest hope that the next four years may bring to you the most of joy and the least of sorrow, and be fo the Nation years of tri- umphant prosperity. Harriet 8. Blaine—Heartiest congratulations with many tender thoughts of the past. Senator Thursion, chairman of the conven- tion—This is the year of the people, John A. Logan, Copenhagen, Denmark—All Americans abroad rejoice. This one particu- larly pleased. Congressman D,. B. Henderson, Iowa— Whipped, but happy—sincerely happy. Tillie Hanna, daughter of M. A. Hanna, Cleveland—Mother says it is just as it should RETURN OF THE CANTONESE Major McKinley Thanks the Yoe- men Who Bore His Banner at St. Louis. CANTON, Onro, June 19.—Shortly after liam C. Whitney, who will represent tne | noon preparations began making for the Thirteenth District of New York, reception of the returning Cantonese, and the neighboring houses began filling up with residents of the city. Market streef, on which the McKinley residence stands, is the site of numerous handsome resi- dences surrounded by wide-spreading green lawns, These, with the gay decora- tions, which were not contined to the houses alone, but covered the grounds as well, made a brilliant and attractive scene, heightened by the bright dresses of scores of Canton’s beautiful women and girls. The McKinley house was a busy place in a quiet way. A stream of callers, mostly residents of the surrounding country, de- manded the major's frequent presence on the porch for a handshake. The intervals he spent in conversation with a few frends in the library, varied by frequent visits to the parlor, where Mrs. McKinley and a party of lady friends spent the day. Incidents more or less interesting were not wanting, as, for instance, the arrival of J. W. 8mith, a colored man “of Ohio,” who insisted upon seeing the major to pre- sent in person an application for a posi- tion. He failed to see him, however. There was an unexpected delay in the arrival of the train, and it was after 6 o'clock when the music of the band an- nouced the approach of the delegation. As they came up one street a delegation of several hundred from Trumbull and Mahoning counties marched up a parallel street and they simultaneously entered the yard, front and rear, completely filling | it. At that time the adjoining streets were jammed, fully 10,000 people being within sight of the house. Major McKinley received the triumph- ant pilgrims under the trees in the side yard, and received from them such a trib- ute as seldom falls 1o the lot of man. It was a memorable scene. Standing bareheaded just at the corner deeply and have sounded the depths of my Leart more profoundly than anything that has gone before. In this audience to-day are representatives from all of the counties which for years con- stituted my Congressional district, and with which I have been associated all my life. A large body of my fellow-citizens are here from Trumbull County, the place of my birih. [Great applause]. A large number are here from Mahoning County [cheers], the place where I spent all of my boyhood; the county where I received my education. and from which I enlisted in the war for the preserva- tion of the Union away back in 1861. [Loud cheering]. Icame toStark nearly thirty years 8g0. You have all been my friends ever since. [Loud cheers]. Iwill only add that I thank each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart for these manifestations of friendship, your devo- tion and loyalty. Canton and Stark County could not help but make & good impression at 8t. Louls, and Mahoning County, too, so they all sent their best men. Iam surprised that most of them should have been nonored with any title below “Colonel” [laught>r], and as you seem to have brought back what you went for, those whom you left behind want me to say that they are glad to see you home again. [Cheers]. While this neighborhood reception and reunion was in progress the front yard had been invaded by the victorious host of the McKinley League of New Yor, in- cludine the seventeen McKinley delegates from that State. Their train was held at the station for the call to be made, and as time was precious, Mr. McKinley hurried through the house and on the front porch faced the 200 eager-faced New Yorkers,who split the air with yells as he came through the door. John F.Mulbotland acted as master of ceremonies, and calling for order, said they wouid be addressed by the next Gov- ernor of New York and the next President of the house, Mrs. McKinley sitting in al of the United States.

W. Taylor of the Twelfth District addressed the major. He said: “The delegation which a few days ago left Canton with high hopes returns to you with these hopes realized and with the pleasing knowledge that, as you are honored and loved here, so you are hon- ored and loved wherever the American flag floats. We know the same devotion and loyalty, the same courage and con- science, the same capacity and patriotism which have distinguisbed you from the veginning will characterize your labors in the wider field to which the American people will soon call you.” He was followed by Judge Baldwin of Canton, and then by Judge Day, who, o behalf of the ladies of Richmond, Ind., where the delegates took breakfast this morning and held the first McKinley meeting in that State, presented a box of roses to the major for his wife. As Major McKinley mounted the dry- troduced Major McKinley in a few words. “My fellow-citizens of New York: It gives me very great pleasure to meet and greet vou here at my home to-day,” Ma- jor McKinley responded. “It was most generous on your part to have paused in your journey to the East long enough to give me the pleasure of meeting you face toface. What we have to do this year, my fellow-citizens, 1s to keep cloe to the people. [Loud cheering.] Hearken to the voice of the people, bave faith in the people, and if we do that the people will win for us a triumph for that great, mas- terfut principle which in all the years of the past has given us plenty and prosper- ity.” A few remarks by George E. Mathews of of Buffalo, president of the league, closed the speech-making, and the members hastily took their departure and resumed the journey homeward. While the Major was at dinner a col- ored man from Youngstown named Cuney sang a song, which he composed and wrote | for the campaign, to their great entertain- ment.

Skinner of North Carolina Says the Democrats Could Win Under His Banner. ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 19.—The bolt o Senator Teller and his free-siiver associ- ates yesterday has caused politicians all over the country to calculate his strength as the Presidential candidate of the free- silver Republicans, Democrats and Popu- lists. The conclusions differ widely, but that of Representative Skinner, Populist of North Carolina, is entitled to as much serious consideration as any. Mr. Skinner is an advocate of Mr. Teller’s nomination by the Democrats and Populists as their candidate for the Presidency. He said: “Mr. Teller's strength is so very great and he is so conspicuously the man for this emergency that it will almost amount to & crime if the opportunity is permitted to pass unimproved. The Democrats, however, must take the initiative, as they meet before the Populists, but if they will indorse him on a free silver platform the Populists will accept him and give him their full support at the polls. Mr. Teller would be a much stronger candidate than a free silver Democrat. He could poll the silver strength of the three parties. and would be at least seventy electoral votes stronger than any Democratic bi- metallist in the country. A Democratic bimetallist could, under favorable circum- stance, hope to carry only these States: Alabama.. Kentucky. Louisiana. Tennessee. ..

The Senator From Montana Leaves the Republican Party With the Silverites, ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 19.—A few be- lated stragglers, feebly echoing the tumult of the past four days, is about all that re- mains here to-night of the great conven- tion. The exodus began immediately upon adjournment, and every out-going train since that hour has been crowded. The first to arrive were the legion of newspaper correspondents, and they are the last to leave. Most of the uniformed clubs left this morning. All were escorted to the Union station by local marching clubs. There remain, however, a number of men who addel an exciting chapter to political history. The dissenting delegates who left the convention were as busy to- day as earnest men can be. Senator Lee Martle of Montana, who stayed in the convention, but voted against the plat- form and the candidate, in a late edition of the Chronicle this morning casts his lot with the bolters. His signed statement follows: Although not having actually withdrawn from the late Republican convention,I am nevertheless firmly of the opinion that in the adoption of the single gold standard the Re- publican party has abandoned one of its cardinal principles of iaith, and I cannot sup- port it in that position. I believe that Henry 3. Teller represents, in the fullest and highest sense, the true principles and purposes of the Republican party as advocated by Lincoln, Grant and Blaine. I fully indorse the sug- gestion of his candidacy for President and do not hesitate to say that if nominated I shall give him my hearty support. And I urge upoa all who believe in the principles for which he stands to do the same. 1 take this position in my individual capac- ity, end not as a delegate representing the State of Montana. LEE MANTLE. Since the dramatic incidents of yester- day the Populists have been active in en- deavoring to profit by the bolt. A hastily | called conference of Populist leaders was held at the Lindell Hotel to-day. There were present Chairman Taubeneck of the National Committee; A. Roselle, National committeeman from Missouri; J. H. Davis, National Committeeman from Texas; Eugene Smith, National Commit- teeman from Illinois, and a large number of local Populists. Chairman Taubeneck would not give the details of the conference, but said the principal topic discussed was how to pro- ceed in tendering or accepting overtures from all the friends of silver. Mr. Tavbeneck was anxious to know whether the silver men would pledge their name Senator Teller as it standard- bearer. On this subject..seemed to hinge whe whole weight Of the coming statement from the Populists. “The Populist party is perfectly neutral on the tariff question,” said Mr. Taube- neck. *“We wili accept either a high, or low tariff, 1f the man or party merits our votes on the silver question. That we con- sider the main question before the country to-day.” 3 Others at the conference seemeda anxious to know if the Democratic party was likely to take up Teller. One of the resuits of this conference will be an address to the country which will shortly appear. S S DUBOIS AT THE HELM. All Matters Relating to the Bolting Movement Placed In His Hands. ST. LOUIS, Mo, June 19.—At a meet- ing of the withdrawing delegates held this morning, at which the address to tpe American people was agreed to and is- sued, it was ordered that untila formal organization should be perlfcted all general matters relating to this move- ment, so far as these delegates were con- cerned, should be under the direction of Senator Fred T.Dubois of Idaho. This was done by the unanimous vote of the men signing the address. Senator Dubois will remain in the East for some time, and will doubtless be at the Chicago con- vention. The others, including Senator Cannon of Utah, will start at once for the West. Senator-elect Foraker of Ohio, who is stopping at the same hotel, dropped into the silver headquarters this afternoon to say good-by to the delegates, all of whom he knew personally. g STEWART’S OPINION. Strength Shown by the Silver Men at St. Louis Regarded as a Hopeful Sign. NEW YORK, N. Y., June 19.—Senator Stewart of Nevata, who is at the Hoffman House, regards the action of Senator Tel- ler and the men who followed him out of the St. Louis convention as significant in the highest degree. “Senator Teller represented the real sentiment of nine-tenths of the people west of the Mississippi River,” said he, “and three-fourths of the people of the United States. To me it appears a hope- ful sign and very remarkable that 105 men could have been found in the convention to vote as they did against the consoli- dated bank influence of Europe and America. “he Democratic friends of silver have succeeded in electing a majority of the delegates in favor of the United Statesand against English rule, and are anxious to make an honest effort to rescue the party which Cleveland betrayeda from the con- trol of Pierpont Morgan, the Belmonts and their associates. It remains to be seen whether politics and intrigue will de- bauch the convention at Chicago.” Galusha A. Grow, Congressman-at-large from Pennsylvania, says that the Repub- lican bolt will not mean a loss of more than seventy-five votes in the electoral college. e PAC!FIC COAST SENTIMENT.
