The President Replies TO the Congratuiatory
Dispatches of His Indiana Friends
Special 10 the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, June 14-The correspond.
ent of the Journal found the President to-
day sitting at his desk, which was fairly
buried In the hundreds of congratulatory
messages he had received since Friday
last. He is compelled, of course, to keep
up the work of his Office and to receive
personally the many friends who call, and
he said to your correspondent that it would
be out of the question for him TO attempt
q personal answer to any considerable
number of the telegrams and letters that
are pouring in. The President. therefore.
the medium of the Journal. this expression
of his grateful appreciation:
"Itis quite impossible for me to acknowl-
edge individually and in writing the
Indiana friends. If this great company Of
friends were before me could not ex press
my feelings In speech. have tried that
once and failed. 1t Is not the renomina-
tion for the presidency wh'ch you did so
much to bring about, but Just your great
and unfailing respect and love that moves
me. My gratitude would not have been
less if your discreet and friendly efforts
had been wholly unavailing."
Very few of the Congressman who at
tended the Minneapolis convention have
yet returned. Some Senators have put in
their appearance, including Messrs. Gal
linger. Higgins, Hansbrough, Stockbridge,
Wolcott, Sawyer and Allen, but most OF
these were on the wrong side of the fight,
and they positively refuse to express their
opinion on the outcome of the convention
to outsiders.

SILVER MEN SATISFIED.

CHICAGO, June 14.-The silver plank in

they were willing to acknowledge at Min
neapolis. 1t is, of course, not the free
coinage which is the wish of all silver men.
and which they wish to see ultimately the
law of the land. but they were never de-
luded with the expectation that the Re-
publican party, in its platform for the pres

The platform adopted Ia. however. very lib.

THE FIELD AGAINST GROVER.

Ohio Democrats Are Not All for Cleveland
Some Are for Flower and Whitney.
COLUMBUS, o., June 14.-It will be tho
field against Cleveland in the Demscratic
State convention tomorrow. and the lndi-
cations tonight are that the field is in the
majority. The field, however, Is not con-
centrated on any one. A few delegates
favor Flower. some eX-Secretary Whitney
and number of delegates favor any man
East or West who stands show of carry
ing New York. but they do not think either
Cleveland or Hill is that man. This after
noon the districts which had not hitherto
elected their delegates to Chicago made
their selections.
1t has been mutually agreed between the
elements that no attempt shall be made
Tomorrow to instruct the delegation. For
the delegates at large Ex-Governor
Campbell and Senator Brice viii. be chosen
by accIamation. The former is for Cleve-
land. The latter told the United Press re-
porter tonight that he would 90 to Chi
CagO entirely unpledged and n0n-com-
mitted. His friends say that he is favor
ably inclined toward Whitney. On the
selection OF the other two there will be q
contest between the Clevelandites and the
field.
The platform will make no reference to
the free silver issue. Little interest Is
manifested in the selection OF State
ticket, as il 10 conceded that the nominees
will have no show of success in a presi.
Dental year.
Congressman Warwick said, late to-
night that n caucus of the delegates to
| Chicago made by parties In whom he had
every confidence. showed thirty three anti
Cleveland to nine for the ex-President.
| This does not include the delegates at
large. The platform as drafted by the sub
| committee tonight is brief, dealing prin-
cipally with tariff and ballot reform, and
Teaffirms the delIverances of the last con-
veatiOn on sumptuary legislation and the
currency question.
