Would Leave to Congress the Adjustment of Silver Question. Regards Curbing of Trusts and Re- duction of Tariff as the Is- sues on Which to Rely. et Special Dispatch to The Call. FALO, N, Y., May 19.—Norman E. Democratic national committée- man from New York, in a lefter to-day refers to the questions asked by Richard BU. | L. Metcalf, editor of the Omaha World- Herald, regarding the Democratic plat- form to be adopted by the National Con- vention mext year. Muack outlines -the platform on which he hopes Bryan and Cleveland can agree. On.the monetary question, the bone of contention between the two wings of the Democratic party, | Mack would pursue a more conciliatory course. On this point he say “Monetary :conditions = have:. changed y, thanks-to entirely natural causes, | first and foremost among which must be counted the:remarkable increase in the supply of_gold by reason of the Klondike discoverles and other developments. This has brought about practically the same result ‘which the Democratic party sought to achieve through bimetallism. “I am not prepared, nor do I think any man is, to declare just what ratio should be adopted in order to maintain at all times a parity between gold and silver. “While I have been a firm believer in and upholder of the principles enunciated in the Chieago and Karsas City platforms and would again support those prineiples if contained in the next national platform, it seems to me that the adherents of those two platforms could meet the others, who still subscribe to the declaration of the Indianapolis platform on a plank which | should provide that Congress exercise the tunction of determining from time to time the proper ratio to be established between the two metals, as their respective values fluctuate according to the law of supply and demand.” On the trust question Mack belleves the party’s attitude must remain unshaken. Continuing, he satd: “Right in line with trust control, be- cause absolutely Inseparable therefrom, must come proper tariff reform. I think all right minded, unprejudiced men will agree that tar@) revision, in view of ex- isting conditions, is extremely desirable. The Democratic principle of tariff for rev- enue only is as strong, or stronger, to- day than ever.” in conclusion he says: “It seems to me that friends of Mr. Bryan and those of Mr. Cleveland can unite in ‘opposition of these things with- | out surrendering allegiance to any of our party principles. Democrats must unite if they would march in triumph to the White House next year.” RPN CLARK IS BRYAN’S CHOICE. Nebraskan Favors North Carolinan for the Nomination. WASHINGTON, May 19.—W. J. Bryan and Senator Joe Blackburn of Kentucky recently met here and canvassed the po- litical situation. Blackburn suggested Cleveland, Olney, Gorman and Hill, as available Presidential candidates. Bryan disapproved of each In turn and then sug- gested Judge Walter Clark of North Carolina as the best man for the Demo- cratic Presidential nomination. “Who is Clark?” Blackburn was forced to ask. Bryan told him that his candidate was Chief Justice of North Carolina and a| very able man. A search revealed that Judge Clark has views that colncide with those of Bryan on most things in the Chicago and Kansas City platforms and that he visited Mexi- co several years ago and wrote at length on the beauties of the silver basis as it operated in Mexico. —_———————— BUTTE, Mont., May 19.—An Anaconda spe- cial to the Miner says that Thomas Murray, one of the famous old-timers of the State, died this morning. He was a close friend of the late Marcus Daly and at one time “grub- staked’” the copper king in the days of the California gold excitement. slons now being held here. Stelnway Hall, where the delegates are meeting, is taxed to its utmost capacity. Fully 400 delegates from every State in the Union are in attendance and are tak: ing a keen interest in the proceedings. Matters pertaining to the members of the assoclation are being discussed in execu- tive session. The open meetings are at- tended by the wives and daughters of the members, who find them very IntWresting. The hall has been prettily decorated in | honor of the delegates. The stage is a mass of palms and flowers and on every side are the names of each State in red, ' white and blue shields. These shields are | surmounted by greens. ‘ At the opening of the convention yes- | terday morning a band discoursed popu- lar melodies. The hall was too small | to accommodate those who were interest- | Morning comes, and it ed in the proceedings and many had to stand. The delegates were called to or- der shortly after 10 o’clock by E. D. Horn- brook, national president of the associa- tion. James E. Britt, a leading member of the local organization, escorted Mayor Schmitz to the platform and introduced | the Mayor to the assemblage. When the | applause had subsided Mayor Schmitz spoke as follows: MAYOR GIVES WELCOME. Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen and Members of the Master Plumbers’ Associa- tion: Upon me has fallen a very pleasant duty, and one that I appreciate to its fullest | extent, and that is to welcome you delegates on behalf of the city of San Francisco (applause); o welcome you to San Francisco, the metropo- lis of our Golden State, so-called not because, some of our visitors have supposed, that you can pick up golden nuggejs in the street, but_because of our golden fruit, our golden land and sunshine and the golden feeling which springs from our hearts to the visitor, no matter where he comes from. With that feeling and speaking for the entire population | of San Francisco, 1 welcome you here to-day, férmally and with a full heart, to all the hos- pitality that is possible for the citizens to ex- tend to you. We realize that your visit is of vast import- ance to our city. The intelligence of our vis- itors as a rule—and this convention s no ex- ception to the rule—is far above the average, and when they can carry back with them an impression they hive gained of San Francisco and the entire State of California, it really does us more good than anything we can do. ‘Therefore, we are a little selfis! However, we are pleased to have you here, We have placed in the hands of a committee the pleasing task of entertaining you. Mr. Britt, one of your members, is on that committee, and If that committee does mot do its duty I want you to report to the chief executive and we will take the matter in hand ourselves.
