boom. The Montana delegates were not

of possibilities, of balloting in the con

claring one after another a preference

Of the party. and predict with great con-
tidence. the nomination of the ex-presi-
dent On Wednesday next.
In another respect is there a parallel
between the two conventions. The dele
gates from the silver states two weeks
ago allied themselves with the anti
Harrison forces and bitterly opposed
the presidents denomination. Today the
delegates from the silver states are for
the most part arrayed against the nomi-
nation of ex-President Cleveland and
have turned to the south and east in
search Of a combination which will de-
feat his nomination. In one or two
states these overtures were successful in
winning over delegates to Boles as
opposed to Cleveland. South Carolina
this morning decided to 90 for Boies the
western candidate as the best man with
whom to beat Cleveland. to whose nomi-
nation they are bitterly hostile.
Cleveland men are straining every
nerve to add to their strength on the
first ballot and wherever it is possible to
consolidate a state delegation and have
it present a solid front they are doing it.
Their greatest work is being cxerted in
the delegations where the Cleveland
sentiment is preponderant. \ great
deal Of pressure was brought by them
on German TO prevent the use of that
g~entlemans name as one Of the opposing
candidates. Today they employed every
means at their command to induce Cor
man to publicly that he was
not a candidate and would not enter thu
field. Senator Carlisle was less doubt
full about Cleveland's strength in Ne v
York and is now favorable to his renom-
nation. Evidence Of the careful method
the Cleveland people are pursuing was
afforded at IA meeting of the Vermont
delegation when the unit rule was
adopted and a a solitary anti Cleveland
vote therein made to count for Cleve-
land.

of her votes for Horace Boies. When

stead Of two, and she succeeded in getting
what she wanted.
Confusion and excitement were flung
into a conference of silver men todavv
almost at the outset. An abortiye end
ing OF the whole movement seemed
imminent but the final success achieved
was all the greater by the contrast. The
explosion came from a premature sugpes-
ton that the caucus proceed to talk
over the matter of candidates. Instantly
there vas a hubbub. Its no use"
Couldn't agree" 400 close to the CON
MENTION now" and dozens of similar com.
ments were heard. An understanding
among the leading spirits in the confer
ence was that an effort should be made
to concentrate the silver votes under the
lead Of Colorado solidly for German.
The practical refusal of the caucus to
even consider the matter much less to
unite upon a candidate was a disagree
able surprise, but those who were chiefly
instrumental in getting the caucus to-
gether adroitly avoided forcing the issue
at the beginning that threatened if then
pressed to precipitate perhaps irretriev-
able ~dissensiOn. Instead of tanning
ahead roughshod and securing a candi-
date, efforts were ostensibly bent toward
producing a silver plank for which all
present would pledge themselves to
stand through thick and thin.
The dulcet eloquence and quick intel
ligence of Patterson of Denver was
brought into play and under his skilful
plotting harmony as big as a mountain
o began to loom into view. He care
fully avoided any mention of presidential
candidates and urged a full expression
from every man present as To what
should be done and the best method Of
going about it. In place of an angry
debate ensuing as to the fitness or un.
fitness Of different candidates the forty
two delegates present. rs IA result of
Patterscn's delicate manoeuvering, were
o engaged in an earnest but harmless
discussion OF the phraseol1g y Of a silver
plank that could be pushed through by
the platform committee and the course
to be pursued when the platform
reached the convention. All the
intricacies of silver legislation
were apparently shown in three mortal
hours Of speech making that followed,
by every man from the Rocky
mountains that came to Chicago loaded
with an address on the silver question.
The roundup came in the form of a mo-
ton to appoint a committee of one from
each state represented to help frame the
much discussed plank. The motion was
carried and by this time the inclination
to pugn%aciousness so early il the pro
ceedings had thoroughly cvaporated and
the distribution of honors in the form of
places on the committee helped to molli-
fly those who doubted that anything
after all was to come of the caucus.
Selling a favorable opportunity Pat
terson again took the floor and after
pointing out how much depended upon
united action gradually led up to the
statement that he had originally been a
Hill man but of late he had become con.
