These are the sources from which Hill gathered ty as a result of the committee ventio ty-three. an ever an object of distrust. ty issip little more confident, and the silverites are angry with the break in the solid South. The tional Committee was in session all day at the Palmer House. It was a most spirited gathering, and the proceed- ings were conaucted privately. Thesouna of loud voices, however, issued from the council chamber and hungry crowds with- out eagerly listened for some sentiment to soothe their excited dispositions. It was not until late in the afternoon that a vote on the temporary chairmanship was taken, and when the result was announced to the waiting newspaper reporters and the word pessed to different political centers great excitement followed. With Hill as temporary chairman the plan of the gold men is to prolong the convention, as they feel that their only hope lies in the disunion that would fol- low a protracted meeting with the Demo- tic temperament at fever heat, when they might be enabled to defeat the silverites in the end. The silver torces, led by Gov- ernor Altgela of Illinois, Governor Stone of Missouri, Senator Jones of Arkansas and Senator Daniel of Virginia, are anx- ious to have the business of the conven- tion rushed through with as little delay as possible. The situation as regards candidates is unchanged. Bland is still leading with a handsome majority. Boies is trailing along close behind,” and Teller is very much in evidence. It is not believed, how- ever, that the latter can possibly secure the nomination. Matthews of Indiana has added no strength to his candidacy, while McLean of Ohio is esteemed only as a Vice-Presidential vossibility. Pattison of Pennsylvania is still in the race. friends are trying to have the delegates from the Eastern States combine upon him. Neither Tiliman nor Blackburn has gained or lost ground. Senator White will not allow California to present his name to the convention. the com- | gold men are to-night a His | sionaries are encouraged by cheering mes- | sages from afar, and thus inspired anew | they are sealing the walls of the enemy’s fortress, and the indications are that be- fore another day it will have captured its guns.

There is nothing left for them to do but | to bolt the convention or retire from the position they have taken on the financial | question and accept the doctrine of 16to 1. A bolt by the gold men up to to-day had | been considered not improbable. There is | now some hope of a compromise. Senator Hill is trying to bring it about. His con- | ference with Governor Altgeld was sig- nificant. 1t was accepted by the silverites as a concession of weakness on the par of | the New York leaders. Itis not thought probable that Hill will give way suffi- ciently to bring about a reunion of the | party. While it is believed that he will | accept a platform declaring for the free | | coinage of silver the ratio of 16 to 1is | obnoxious to him. Nothing short of this, however, will satisfy the silver men, and, as they are the controlling element of the convention, they will not recede from the stand taken. Sixteen to one is their religion. Senator Hill is looked upon by the Democracy as a | trimmer. He is now flirting with the | silver wing of the party while Tammany | | is outspoken to the effect that it will sup- port the ticket regardless of the platform and nominee. Whitney continues to sulkin his tent.

With the elimination of Senator White from the field of action in any capacity other than that of a dark horse the situa- | tion stands precisely as was stated in Tug CavrL a week ago; that is to say, Bland of Missouri in the lead, with Boies a close second and the rest scattering. All the convolutions of political workings and schemes during ten days of the most active plotting and planning have failed to change the status. I asked Congressman Maguire of Cali- fornia how the delegation stood for Presi- dent, and he replied that if a vote were to be taken now Bland would be in the lead, with the remainder of the delegation di- vided and with no particular choice. James V. Coleman was asked the same | auestion, and he repliea that the only | members of the delegation who were working for Bland were Congressman Maguire and Caminetti; that the rest of | White and Blue.” ennoyer of Oregon is now out for second ce on the National ticket. His friends are making an energetic fight for him. While the Western delegates recognize his splendid abilities they prefer a can- didate with a large sack and a disposition to open it. While tbe Bland men claim tbat they will have sufficient votes to nominate him for the Presidency it seems to me that it i« everybody's race, with such a large | mber of candidates in the field and with party divided on the financial problem is no knowing what the outcome may be. Asl survey the field to-night it certainly looks as though a great crisis ronts the National Democracy. It may inspire a superior statesmanship. It may forever obliterate the party.

Straddlers That Went to Chicago From the East Clamor to Get Into the Lifeboat. thedelegation had no candidate at all. “By the way,”” asked Mr. Coleman, ‘“‘who has put up Governor Altgeld as the man- ager of thisconvention? By whatauthority does he presume to dictate and lay out programmes? I have been trying to find out since I have been here, buv I have not been able to learn what power is behind the Governor of Illinois. He certainly has not the California delegation.” E. E. Leak, Commissioner of Public Works for California, said that he wasa | gold man, but that while he had not been instructed by the district convention which had selected him as a delegate, he felt bound in honor by the platform adopted by the State Convention. ‘‘How many gold men are there in the delegation?”’ 1 asked. “There are, I should say, vne-half of the delegation who personally as individuals are in favor of sound money, but they will vote for silver under their instructions.” “In other words,” I suggested, ‘“‘they will vote against their consciences, against their better jucgment.”” CHICAGO, IvL., July 6.—The silver tide “Yes to a certain extent.”” is graduaily rising. It has virtually sub- | Mr. Coleman in a subsequent conversa- merged the' ultra gold men. The few | tion said that he did not think that Dick Bland would get the nomination for the Presidency. There would be a good many combinations, and if it came to a decisive stage the supporters of all the other can- didates in the field would combine against him. Mr. Coleman added that Senator White would have a very good chance of getting the nomination in such a contin- | gency, but that the Senator would not al- low his name to be used. The headquarters of the California dele- gation were open to-day as were also sev- ral cases of wine. A long table was spread at one end of the handsomely furnished parfor and two smiling colored men under the direction of Delegate T. T. Lane served all comers with Shasta water, Haut Sauterne, Zinfandel and Burgundy. It would be needless to say, if Iaid not prefer to say it, that the California head- quarters are the most popular in the city. Colonel John P. Irish appeared at the del- gation headquarters with a lurid light in his usually calm ultramarine eyes. He remarked that he was going to make the fur fly in certain unmentionea quarters and from my knowledge of the colonel’s | ability both with pen and tongue I have no doubt that a real roasting cyclone will strike the Democratic camp somewhere amidships. Outside of New York there appears to be more energy concentrated in the Califor- nia delegation than in any other with which I have come in contact. Make a comiposite picture of M. F. Tarpey, Senator | White, John P. Irish, Congressman Ma- | guire and W. W. Foote and you have | about as stubborn and as pushing and as hard-pulling a tug-of-war team as you could find anywhere. Tha California dele- gation on this occasion, by not being pledged to any particular candidate, may be able to make itself heard to good ad- vantage in its National council, for it surely has the right kind of material. The crowding stage of the convention week was initiated to-day. It was diffi- cult for a person to make way against the turbulent tide of humanity that ebbed and flowed north and south on State street, and that whirled and eddied and piled up a great delta of human driftwood in front of the entrance fo the Palmer House. It was almost as much as a man’s pocket- book was worth to throw himself in the midst of this mass and be slowly pressed inside, where he could see nothing but tobacco smoke and hear nothing but noise. Bands heading the arriving delegations during the day make it a point to blow their way in with their instruments through this viscid, sluggish mass of political devravity and taking their stand in the middle of the lobby to play patri- otic airs and drown the arguments of the loud-voiced men wrangling over the finan- cial question. While I was in the midst of the suffocat- ing crowd this afternoon the band was playing the stirring strains of “The Red, During a pause in the music a man from Pike County, Missouri, shouted ““Give us ‘Dixie.’” The band at once struck up that soul-stirring air so reminiscent of the cotton fields, the moon- lit river glimmering among the rushes and the sound of the banjo and the song of the happy darky in the good and the baa days of long ago. In a little entresol, the balcony of which overlooks the clerk’s desk, are gathered a crowd, mostly of women spectators, occu- pants of the hotel, who perspire and fill their lungs with tobacco smoke and dust for hours and hours at a stretch watching the silver cranks wrangling on the floor below and listening to the music of the bands as they lead the delegates into the hall. To-morrow Governor Altgeld will show the Democracy into the Coliseum corral and will brand the letter “A” upon the National Democracy if Chairman Hiil gives him the least opportunity. Jonx PAUL COSGRAVE. SENATOR STEWART’S VIEW. Plenty of Trled and True Candl- dates In the Fleld for the Presidency. CHICAGO, IrL., July 6.—Benator Stew- art of Nevada, speaking to a United Press representative to-day on the situation, said: “I find delegates generally discussing how they can secure the combined votes of Democrats, Populists and silver Repub- licans. It is generally conceded that all parties would vote for Teller and that his nomination would secure success. But many of them have their own candidates who have been faithful free-silverites, and they cannot see why everybody should not vote for their favorite. There are a large number of good and tried men i1n the field, any one of whom ought to satisfy gold adherents. However, the paramount desire for victory is so great that it seems probable at this time that party prejudice will be buried and that there will be a union upon a representative man of ail the parties interested, and that the man selected will lead to victory."” S R e Bryan Has Hopes. CHICAGO, Irv., July 6.~Ex-Represent- ative Bryan of Nebraska thinks the action of the National Committee recommending the seating of the gold delegates from Ne- braska will only increase the interest in the Nebraska contest, and that the matter will be settied in favor of the silver dele- gates as t00n as action is had by the con- vention.

ORGANIZATION OF THE DELE- GATES FROM CALIFORNIA. Joseph J. Dwyer to Be the Next Na- tional Committeeman of the Golden State. TrE CALL's HEADQUARTERS, GREAT NORTHERN HOTEL. CHICAGO, 1LL., July 6. } This has been a busy and exciting day. Delegations representing Bland, Boies, Blackburn, Matthews, Pattison and Teller have been flitting from hotel to hotel pre- senting the records and the strong points in favor of their several candidates. Rep- resentatives of all these candidates visited the California beadquarters to-day and made such strong showings for their favorites that while they may not have aided our choice they have at least stimu- lated, our party voride. Much as we honored our leaders we did not previously realize how grand a galaxy of statesmen we had to choose from. Bland is stilt in the lead and is gaining strength. To-day the lilinois delegation pledged him its solic support. 1 saw ex- | Congressman Fithian of Illinois just after this action was taken and he said emphati- cally that Bland can carry Illinois and that with any other candidate the State will be doubtful. He says that Boies can- not carry Illinois. The Teller mo vement is still strong, but | it is not so strong as it was on Saturduy. Bland is drawing from Teller’s supporters. The argument that Bland is as good and as reliable a silver man as Teller; tuat Tel- ler and his followers, having failed in the Republican party to get a silver platform, should not now ask the Democratic Con- vention not only for a favorable platform, but also for the candidate, are having their effect ana will probably prevail. Boies is handicapped to-day by the ap- pearance of John Boyd—Mr. Huntington's shadow—to solemnly assure delegates that, in his opinion, Boies would make an ideal President. Poor Boies! What secret treason has broyght down upon him, in this evil hour, the friendship of such public enemies? The Boies commit- tee, however, made an exceilent impres- sion on our delegation. Matthews’ fight is quiet and dignified. It is what may be called a waiting fight. If the fierce strugele amone the leading candidates should end in the failure of all of them he will occupy an admirable posi- tion. Heis an uncompromising silver man, with a most excellent record on that and on all other public questions. Pattison has a splendid record, but he cannot be nominated because of his hos- tile or, at least, uncertain position on sil- ver. The fight between the silver and gold forces will be precipitated at the very open ing of the convention to-morrow. The ma- jority of the National Committee has chosen to provoke the contest by insisting upon presenting the name of Senator Hill for temporary chairman. The minority will present the name of either Senator Daniel or ex-Congressman Bryan. Our delegation to-day decided to vote as a unit for the candidate of the majority. It is said to-night that the gold men are offering votes to Boies in exchange dor votes for Hiil. Ifthe Boies men should vote for Hill it would be regarded as trea- son by the silver men. The California delegation was in session for nearly four hours to-day. Joseph J. Dwyer was elected National Committee- man. Senator White was selected to rep- resent the State on the committee on plat- form and resolutions. Mr. Maguire on rules and order of business, Mr. Burke on cre- dentials, Mr. Coleman on organization and Mr. Caminetti on notification of President and Vice-President. Mr. Church was named for State vice-president of the con- vention and Mr. Wise for assistant secre- tary of the convention. Ex-Congressman Caminetti called atten- tion to the fact that the last State Conven- tion had instructed the delegation to use all honorable means to secure in the Na- tional platform a resolution in opposition to the refunding of the Pacific railroads debt. He said that the question was National in its character and results; that a Democratic House of Representatives had defeated the Reilly bill; that a like measure, the Powers bill, is now pending in the House of Representatives, and that it would be proper for the National Con- vention to indorse the action of the Fifiy- third Congress in defeating the measure and to pledge the party to oppose the scheme. Each member of the delegation agreed to muke a personal effort with the mem- bers of the committee on resolutions to secure the adoption of such a plank. No action was taken on the question of agree- ing on a candidate for President, and 1t is probable that no such action will be taken until after the first ballot for President. P. Burke, R. P. Troy, Mr. Hirshberg and other visiting Democrats were selected as alternates to fill the places of those who are absent. The California headquarters are quite popular and the yoang men of the delega- tion are excellent hosts. JaMEs G. MAGUIRE. e STATE ORGANIZATION.

CHICAGO, ILr., July 6.—There was a conierence to-night in Colorado’s head- | quarters of delegates from the Rocky Mountain States, Utah, Nevada, Idaho, New Mexico, Wyoming and Colorado be- ing represented. It was agreed that the minority report of the Natioaal Commit- tee naming Senator Daniel for temporary chairman be supvorted, and that the ad- mission of Territories as Statas be advo- cated. It was also decided that the dele- gates support the restoration of the old~ ‘Lerritorial representation of six in Na- tionzl Conventions. There was an infor- mal talk on candidates for the Presiden- tinl nomination, and some efforts were made to secure a united support for Teller. This proposition did not entirely meet the views of all those present, and no action was taken. e A CUBAN PLANK.

This aroused the ire of Senator Harris, and in the emphatic langusge for which he is noted, he condemned’ the action of Boies us more than foolish. He was sur- prised that a man like Boies should advo- cate the policy credited to him, a policy so eutirely at variance with the wishes and desires of the silver wing of the party.

The Wyoming delegates passed resolu- tions favoring a tariff for revenue only, free silver, and declared themselves for Bland. The Texas men had a little row over the question of the temporary chairmanship of the convention, some of the delegates wanting to pass a resoiution for Bryan, but it raised so much opposition that it was tabled. The Texas delegates finally indorsed the | canaidacy of Bland for President and se- | lected Congressman J. W. Bailey to sec- ond Mr. Blana’s nomination. The Missouri men feel so positive of Bland’s nomination that at the caucus this morning it was decided not to elect a National Committeeman, but to leave the place open until after the convention, when they propose to permit Bland to se- lect & man agreeable to him.
