FREE COINAGE OR NOTHING.

Colorado SiIVsrItes Meet "a State C0nvea-
tiOn-A Notable Gathering -RsyolutlOn.
Rry Talk InduIged in,
DENVER COL, July 1.-THE mass
meeting called by President Merrick, Of
the state silver league, and joint com.
mitteeH from the chamber Of commerce,
real estate and stock exchanges, met at
the Coliseum Hall at noon to-day. The
building was crowded with thousand
delegates, from every section Of the
state, who had come to SEQ what conld
be done towards cryslallizlng senti-
ment in Colorado on the establishment
OF free and unlimited coinage Of
silver.
There appeared to be but one feeling
in all the gathering. and that was free
coinage or nothing, In his address call
ing the meeting to order President
Merrlck said;
I'VE ask for justice, for our rights.
We will accept nothing less. The pio-
neers Of Colorado havo had their con-
tract violated. Petitions and remon-
strances have been unavailing. The
crime OF 1878 has gone on all these years
unpublished. We are here to demand
an early and speedy settlement OF the
silver question"
AT this point some OF the extremists
attempted to introduce resolution,
This created an uproar which came
near terminating in q riot, Ex.Con.
gresham Beltord finally secured the
floor and said:
"Gcntlemen, the world is watching
Colorado at this moment. We must be
dignifled and earnest; no passionshould
prevail. Remember, resistance to
tyranny Is obedience to God. beg Of
you to adjourn"
This seemed to bring the angry crowd
to their senses, and the recess was
taken.
Hon, Charles st. Thomas, Democratic
national committeeman from Colorado,
was made permanent chairman. In
his speech he reviewed tho situation.
Governor Waite followed with
sensational speech in which he
threatened that Colorado would
not surrender without bloodshed.
He concluded: "If war is forced upon
us we will send to Halifax a far greater
army OF British Tories according to our
population than our forefathers sent
there after the revolutionary war;"
Jddge Kerr, OF Pueblo, got the floor
and spoke in the same inhamtnatoryj
vein as Governor Waite. He endorsed
the recent revolutinary telegram sent
by Edward R. Holden to the east.
The convention went wild and amid
deaiening shouts endorsed Governor
Waite's address.

After calling the commissioners to or

Gentlemen, you know under what

ion that there aro several buildings
here from which in case fire takes
place it would be impossible to take

hold us guiltloss unless we do all in our
power to prevent il, "
Commissioners Barbour, OF Michigan,
presented a resolution OF respect for

adopted.
On motion Of Commissioner Mercer,
OF Wyoming, q resolution was adopted
providing for the appointment OF a
special committee OF four to inspect tho
buildings as regards the safety OF

grounds. Mr.. Castleman, OF Kentucky,
presented a resolution, which was
adopted, directing the committee on

cautions that arc necessary, II any.

LONDON, July 1.-THE house OF COM
mons, sitting in committee, continued
this evening the discussion Of clause
nine OF the home rule bill. This clause
concerns the question OF Irish repre-
sentation at Westminster.
Henry Seton-Karr moved that the
Irish members OF the imperial parlia-
ment be elected by the constituencies
which would elect the Irish legislative
council Under this amendment the
Irish in tho house OF commons would
number AS instead OF so as proposed by
the bill. John Morley replied that this
proposal was based on no principle Of
government.
William Broderick, Conservative, said
the Irish wero both impecunious and
garrulous and-therein lay two reasons
for reducing their representation in the
house to minimum. Thomas Sexton,

account Of the fifteen.year.old strike,
which was settled to the satisfaction OF
