ganization would probably be called
together during the first week in Sep
tember. His lieutenants would not
say what conversation occurred be-
tween them and Mr.. Kelly. One of

ELKINs' DEMOCRATIC CFATHER-IN-LAw.
U. S. Senator III. 6. Davis, of
West Virginia, is very angry about
the statements heralded by Republic
an statesmen against his fealty to the
Democratic party. Senator Davis
happens to be the father-in-law of
Steve Elkins, Blaine's campaign man
ager, and that accounts for the runors
circulated about the Senator's luke
warmness. The Senator's friends say
that he has never swerved from his
Democracy and in this campaign will
redouble his energies for the success
of his party. The Senator has already
taken off his coat and is hard at work.
THE PLAN DID NOT WORK.
A delegate to the State Trade As
sembly, which met at Utica on the
11th and 18th inst, said at National
Democratic Headquarters yesterday
that the attempt of the opponents of
Cleveland to capture the Convention
was total failure. He said l.: "The
city Of Utica was flooded with copies
of the same anti-Cleveland labor
circular that was circulated
at Chicago, and an attempt was
made to represent it as the voice Of
the officers of the organization. This
was Indignantly repudiated by Mr..
Gawley, Chairman Of the Convention ;
by Mr.. Blair, Chairman of the Exec
| utive Committee, and by the Convsn-
tion itself which, with great unanimity
voted to denounce the attempt to turn
it into political machine in opposi-
ton to the views of the great majority
of its members. Mr.. Gawley and Mr.
Blair wrote letters to the local papers
to this effect. On the way home a
ballot was taken among the Knights
of Labor showed decided majority
for Cleveland over Blaine, and but few
votes for Butler"
