Silver Men Confer and Pull Votes for the
Man from Maryland.

Silver Men Confer and Pull Votes for the
Man from Maryland.
CHICAGO, June 21. = Forty-two silver
men held a caucus yesterday and for
three hours discussed the phraseology OF
a silver plank and methods by which 1t
could be pushed through the platform
committee. Finally motion to appoint
a committee OF one from each state rep
resented to help frame the plank was
carried.
Then T. M. Patterson OF Denver after
pointing out how much depended upon
united action stated that he had origi-
nally been q Hill man, but OF late had
become convinced that the most availa-
Bile man, from q silver standpoint, was
German OF Maryland. 7. j. O'Donnell,
another Colorado delegate proclaimed
himself an original, German man. Clark
of Chicago helped on the boom.
The Montana delegates then fell into
line and finally, after much canvassing
of the possibilities the rest OF the dele
gates present declared one after anot her
q preference for German or q willingness
to unite in his support. The result, II
the pledges made are carried out, was the
corralling of AZ votes for German on the
first ballot. These votes are to come
from Colorado, Montana, Idaho, Nevada,
Utah, New Mexico, Arizona and Wyom-
ing.
Those active in the caucus claim that
its action will directly influence 30 other
votes in different delegations, making a
total of 20 for German as an outcome OF
the days work by the silver men.

The Ex-President and Governor Russell
Meet and Exchange Visits.
BosroN, June 2l.-Grover Clcveland's
rheumatism let up sufficiently yesterday
to allow him to join Joe Jefferson, the
commedian, in a trip to this city. He
was met at the station and entertained
through the afternoon by Gov. Russell
and, in consequence OF the long time
spent by these two nobilities in each
others society and Of the fact that Gov.
and Mrs. Russell left with the ex- Presi-
dent for Gray Gables, gossip 10 very rife.
Mr.. Cleveland said he came here merely
for social trip with his friend Jefferson.
But the sudden interchange OF visits be-
tween him and the Governor he's started
great speculation. Many think 10 may
mean possible Russell combination.
To the newspaper men who addressed
him professionally, Mr.. Cleveland was
genial and courteous, but would not talk
politics. He informed them with an in-
nocent smile that he wished he had some
thing to tell them, but really he had not |;
he reiterated his statement that this trip
to Boston was purely a social one.
1t is announced that Mr.. Cleveland will
receive bulletins of the Chicago conyen-
tion over a special wire running direct
into Gray Cables.

Leading Men Believe Those Names are %
Head the Ticket
CHICAGO, June q. - The Democratic
presidential ticket for 1892 will be Cleve-
land and Gray, or at least such 10 the gen.
eral impression of the leading men OF slI
factions. The programme az generally
understood around the Cleveland head
quarters 10 that William M. Wilson OF
west virgins would be the permanent
chairman OF the convention and that no
fight would be made in the convention
over the temporary chirmanship.
Governor Albeit, IL 10 believed, Is
,iated to make the nomination speech for
Cleveland. The above result In believed
to have been brought about by the en-
forcement OF the unit rule in the Illinois
Indiana, Pennsylvania and Missouri dele
cation. The Cleveland victory is In large
measure also due to the Arm stand taken
on behalf OF the ex- President by Senator
Palmer of Illinois, ex- Governor Campbell
of Ohio and Editor Morss of the Indian
apolis Sentinel. It is understood that an
attempt is being made to reconcile the
troubles within the Democratic party
in New York. It Is said that members
on both sides Of the fight In New York
have urged Senator Hill to withdraw his
name and permit the vote OF New York
to be given to Cleveland to make the lat
ter's nomination practically by acclsma-
ton.

WON THE UNIT CONTEST
CLEVELAND AND GRAY
whitney 10 Claiming 6oi Votes for
Cleveland--The Antis Scored. How
ever. ON the Temporary chairmanship
Of fConvention-siIve Men for German.

CHICAGO, June 21.--A signal victory
for tho Cleveland forces was fought and
won yesterday almost without the firing
of gun. II was on the question OF the
unit rule and the battle ground was In
the Pennsylvania delegation. The talk
before the Pennsylvanians went into eau
Gus was that q strong effort was to be
made to break the unit rule In the Key
stone State, and that upon the result Of
the fight In Pennsylvania would largely
hinge the course to be pursued In other
delegations where similar conditions
existed.
Rumors were current that State Sena-
tor Wallace would lead the opponents OF
the unit rule. National Committeeman
Harrity was equally well understood to
be the probable champion OF the Cleve-
land men and the adherants OF the pol
icy of having Pennsylvania vote
pumped solidly.
After the organization had been effect
cd, State Senator Grant Herring, one Of
the Cleveland delegates at large, threw
down the gauntlet to the Wallace con-
tingent by offering the following:
Resolved That the chairman OF the Penn
sylvania delegates be instructed TO cast the
yhole vote OF the deiegat,on OF pennsyivania , ai
ident OF the United States until nominated,
or otherwise instructed.
The apti-unit men rallied quickly.
John T. Lenihan of Luzerne, a close
friend of Senator Wallace, promptly
moved to amend by substituting the
name OF Governor Pattison OF Psnnsylva-
MIA for that OF Cleveland.
Committeeman Harrity In q short but
forcible speech earnestly protested
against the amendment.
Although the antis had claimed about
IS anti Cleveland votes in the delegation
scarcely quarter OF that number when
the pinch came were to toe the mark.
Wallace himself declined to vote either
way, and the amendment was lost. The
vote by which Grover Cleveland was thus
guaranteed the votes Of Pennsylvapia
stood IS to 4, the minority consisting OF
Wallace and Lenihan and the 18th dis
trict delegates, Smoulter and Collins.
II was still an open question whether
or not Mr.. 0orman's name will be pre-
sented to the convention. Mr.. German
told Representative Compton OF Mary
land, who is his close political friend and
q near neighbor, that the reports that his
name would be presented were not COR
rect. IL has been said that Alabama was
to lead OF In the presentation Of Mr..
Germans and be followed by other
states as the roll was called. "Of course
that 10 not true" said Compton. "If Mr..
Gorman's name is presented, 1t will be by
the Maryland delegation, and we have
yet to decide on our course"

ANTS SCORED FIRST.

Ehey Captured the Temporary Chairman
ship Of the Convention.
CHICAGO, June N.-To the anti Cleve-
land forces belong the hrst honors of war
In the contest for the control of the DEM
ccratio national convention. The nation
al committee has decided, by vote OF 2s
20 20, 10 present the name OF Henry Wat
tsrson's candidate, w. q. Owens of Ken
tuoky. 40 the temporary chairman Of the
convention. The Cleveland people III
brook defeat and intend to carry the con-
test to the door OF the conyention i'm
msdiately after the convention Is called
to order.
This will develop, though not perfectly,
the strength of each side In the conven-
tion and will show the utmost strength
OF the opposition to Cleveland, and pro-
badly something In excess OF that
strength, 40 some Cleveland states voted
for Owens.
Mr.. Owens competitor for the honor
was VIM. i. Wilson, the tariff reform
member Of the House ways and means
committee from West Virginia. The
light Tor control Of the temporary organ
ixatiQp has been going on quietly since
Friday night, little OF what was being
done coming TO the surface.
Mr.. Watterson entered into the fight
on behalf OF his state colleagues with
vim and bad the national committee
csnvassed before IL was decided by the
sub-oommittee to Suggest" Mr.. Ovens
name. The first time the sub committee
met, tho Cleveland managers who favored
Mr.. Stevenson, conveyed an intimation
that Owens was not acceptable to them.
An adjournment over Sunday was taken
and - this interval, Mr.. Watterson
went 10 work In behalf Of his young
friend.
Ysstssday morning the cub committee
met and at once decided in favor of Mr..
Owens and agreed unanimously to report
his name to the full national committee.
Some Of tho Cleveland men were in favor
of acquiescence in the decision of the
sub committee, but Mr.. Harrity and
Senator Villas said they would make a
fight ON Stevenson wss dropped,
as the man with whom to oppose Mr..
Owens, and Wilson Of West Virginia was
taken mp a. the strongest man the Cleve-
land people could put In opposition to
Mr.. Owens.
Mr.. Wilson was selected because he
was . southern man, because of his repu-
tation a. 3 tariff reformer as well as his
parliamentary skill. The Cleveland peo-
pie made good deal of mystery unneces-
sarily about their programme, which
quickly developed Itself, however, in
committee.
1t was II o'clock when Chairman Brice
called the national COMMITTEES to order.
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1892-06-21

After preliminary business Mr.. Ransom
OF North Carolina, In behalf OF the sub
committee on temporary organization,
nominated for Temporary chairman VIM.
q. Owens of Kentucky. This nomination
was seconded by Henry Wattsrson and
others.
Mr.. Holt OF Texas, nominated William
L. Wilson of Virginia. Hiram Atkins
seconded the nomination a. did several
others. Brief complimentary speeches
were made setting forth the merits OF
the two candidates. While these speech
60 were going on, active conferences were
going on between the Cleveland men.
Ex- Secretary whitney lowered around
the outside of the national committee
headquarters and held conferences with
Mr.. Harrity and other committeeman
which he called out of the room. Mr..
Villas OF Wisconsin, also came around.
II was said the Cleveland men were en-
from German that he would not be a can
didate. Evidently the assurance wanted
were not given for Mr.. Owens selection
was vigorously opposed, but when the
roll was called IL was found that that
gentleman had 28 votes to 20 tor Mr.. Will
son.
A motion was entered to make Mr.
Owens selection unanimous. but Mr..
Holt of Texas, gave notice that he would
present minority report to the conven-
ton. All the states voting for Mr. Will
son seem to be states In which the Cleve-
iand sentiment is preponderant, unless
1t be Miss sissippi, but in the list of Mr.:
Owens supporters are to be sound several
states OF whose devotion to Cleveland's
interests there can be no doubt.
Thus Michigan favored the adoption OF
the subcommittee report, ,sas did Massa-
chusetts, Illinois, Tennessee and Maine.
Two members of the national committee,
Senator Barbour Of Virginia and Q. A.
Broadwater of Montana, had died during
the year. In their places sat Basil b
Gordon and Martin Maginnis.

fans were waved in air, delegates and
spectators rose to their feet, and for the
next five minutes Senator Wolcott calm
ly surveyed the bowling, whistling mob
below and above.
Senator Wolcott continued as follows:
"The greatest American now living suf-
fered defeat eight years ago, because the
party which he led and honored was torn
up by discord because fraud triumphed.
[CheersI We meet today to right that
wrong [cheersl, TO present to our un-
crowned leader the pledge of our unswerv-
ing devotion and the victory next Novem-
Der" IBalanoe of this sentence was drowned
in a burst Of uncomfortable applause
Mr.. Wolcott then referred to the
union of the latin republics and then to
reciprocity The latter allusion was
greeted with prolonged cheers. No Off
cial title could add to Or detract from
his fame. Mr.. Blaine was every mans
candidate. He sought everything for
his country and nothing for himself.
There was no true public man who
would not follow where he led and with
trust that Providence would long spare
him to the people. They pledged their
unfaltering loyalty to support James q,
Blaine.
Again the Blaine men were on their
feet cheering and waving flags, hand
kerchiefs and even umbrellas,
When Indiana was reached r. w.

Clarkson of Iowa arose on the platform
and started a Blaine demonstration that
continued twenty-one minutes.
Warner Miller, of New York, also
seconded Blaine's nomination in ten
minute speech which brought ont all,
other great round of applause.

xxx was reached Depew nominated

demonstration that set the convention

When Wisconsin was called Nj.
Spooner rose to second the nomination
of MI Harrison, and made the follow
ing prediction:
Place again in his hand the banner of Re-
publiranism and he will carry it aggressively
all the time at the front: and be will lead US
again to victory There will be irresistible power
and inspiration in the knowledge which per-
suades the people that so long as he is president
there is one at the helm who, whatever be-
tides us at home or abroad, will bring to the
solution of every question, and to the per-
Torrance of every duty, a splendid and dis
ciplined intellect, absolute unfaltering desire
to improve every interest of every section, and
q patriotism which never has wavered either
in war or in peace.
The roll call of states was completed
at 2 minutes before 3 o'clock, and the
first ballot gave Harrison the victory,
