Situation in the Alliance Camp.

Specldl W LIE IdZttit
JACKSON, Miss, June 24-During visit
Willetts, the big Alliance lights, some in
teresting developments came to the surface
relative to National Alliance matters The
National Alliance legislative council met in
Washington last February and created a
legislative committee, consisting of three
members, NJ. c. Hall, president of the Mis-
souri, Alliance, was one. The function of
this committee was to formulate measures
growing out of the Ocala demands to be
presented to the Fifty-second congress-
Hall, from the inception of the sub-treasury
measure, has been one of its strongest OPP
ponents. He commenced the war against
the scheme and, with his coadjutors, has
succeeded in organizing movement cover
ing the entire Southern states. As is
shown from the call of the meeting of the
anti-sub-treasury league at Fort Worth,
Tex, July 10 next, this meeting promises
to be largely attended, and an organized OPP
position to the sub-treasury and Macune-
ism will be definitely inaugurated.
Polk has had considerable correspondence
with Hall, advising him to desist, and very
recently submitted to him one of two al
ternatives, either to cease his opposition to
the Sub-treasury or tender his resignation
as member Of the legislative committee.
Hall was given until June 25 to make his
answer. 1t is believed this is decisive
stroke of policy to Illustrate the objects of
the anti-sub-treasury league at Fort Worth,
Tex, and to influence the less intrepid op-
ponents of the measure to steer clear of the
Fort Worth council Those who know
President Hall say positively he will de-
cline to be coerced and give up his convic-
lions, but on the contrary, he will resign
and fight the sub-treasury harder than ever.
1t is believed by many that this will split
the national Alliance, and an independ-
ent organization will grow out of the Fort
Worth meeting as result with more lib
eral policy in many respects, and especially
as to membership.

New YORK, June 24-The expectation
that more gold would go out by to-morrow's
steamships, took away any desire which
there might otherwise have been to
buy stocks this morning, and consequently
the stock market opened lower and con-
tinued weak throughout the morning, eX-
cept for few rallies due to purchases to
cover shorts.
Exchange was firner this morning and
$500, 900 of gold was taken for export.
The latest from London is that Murrieta
& Co.'S affairs have not yet been settled.
The banks have taken from the sub
treasury nearly s2,0OO,0O since Friday.

better reason apparently than that the price

The Party Declares for Free Coinage of Silver

Split Imminent in the National Alliance
as Result of the Fort Worth
Convention-yest on
the Ticket.
Iowa Democrats.

OTTUMwA, Iowa, June 24.-What is
probably destined to be the most decisive
campaign ever waged for political supre-
macy was opened to-day at 10 .. NJ, when
Chairman Fuller raped to order 1000 of
the most enthusiastic Democrats ever as
sembled in convention in the state. The
campaign is decisive because it is con-
coded by both political parties that as
Iowa goes in the coming election so it will
probably go in the presidential election.
Should the Democrats carry the state and
re-elect Governor Boies the claim of Iowa
as pivotal state in the great national cam
paign of next year will be too well eStab-
lished to be disputed even by the Republi-
cans. The Democrats have one point of
vantage. Governor Boies will be re-nomi-
mated by reclamation while there is sharp
rivalry for the Republican nomination and
some bitterness may be engendered in the
ranks of that party.
After the address of welcome and a
speech by the temporary chairman and an
nouncement of various committees the con-
vention took recess.
Immediately after adjournment the COM
mittee on resolutions went to work and soon
blocked out platform with the exception
Of two or three planks. 1t indorses Gov
BoleS' administration, reaffrms the
anti-prohibition plank of 1889, pledges
the party to pass an Australian
or Ounef ballot reform measure,
denounces the Mckinley tariff law, indorses
the principle of tariff for revenue only,
recommends state and national control of
railroads, favOrs liberal pensions for dis
abled Union soldiers and recommends an
ample and liberal appropriation for state
exhibit at the Worlds fair
Upon the silver question there was long
dispute, but the committee finally decided
to recede from the platform of year ago
and merely favor the free coinage of silver
upon just ratio making it full legal
tender for all debts public and private.
On resolution, Hon. H. W. Pusey was
made permanent chairman.
Formal reports of the committee were
then received and adopted, and nominations
for state officers declared in order
1t was to Col. Charles A Clark that was
allotted the honor of placing in nomination
Hon Horace Boies for a second term
LAS our candidate for governor in the
approaching campaign said he, there is
but one name in the hearts of Iowa Demo-
Gratis, as there is but one name on the lips
of the delegates of this convention assem-
bled it is the name of our present fearless
and peerless chief magistrate, Horace
Boies. Great applause.
By unanimous standing vote, Governor
Boies was declared the nominee for gov
ernor amid the widest applause.
The ticket was completed with Samuel
L. Bestow of Charlton for iieutenant-gov-
ernor, l.. G. Kinnee of Toma county for su-
preme judge, j. B. Kenoughpy for superin-
tendent of public instruction, and Peter A.

The Columbia Crew wins.

New LONDON, Conn, June 24.-The two
mile cornered eight-oared race between
Columbia, Yale and Harvard freshman
class was rowed this noon on the Thames

by three lengths, Yale second and Harvard
third, one length behind Yale. Time, Co

Columbia's time is now the best on record.
The result of the race is a big surprise to
nearly every one who has watched the
practice work Of the crews. Harvard was
generally picked as winner, and Columbia
was almost counted out of the race. All the
morning stiff breeze blew down the
river, and the waves threatened to swamp

Being elected governor he thought the
