TO CONVENE OR NOT.

the Question of Co
: ing On With the Anti Silver
2 Convention.
{ The chamber Of commerce recently
resolved in favor of an anti-silver con-
yentlon. The Jobbers' union and other
Organizations seconded the motion.
q committees from the chamber, job
bers' union, Commercial club, business
mems union and the real estate ex-
change met yesterday afternoon to con-
slider the details, but more especially to
decide whether anything practical is to
be accomplished if such convention is
held.
@ P. III. Kelly presided, Thomas Coch-
ran, G. w. Hackett, D. R. Noyes, W. j.
Footner, William Faulkner, Albert
Scheffer, j. Ii. Davidson, w. D. Kirk,
w. j. Dyer, Ambrose Tighe and others
being present. Quite a protracted de-
bate ensued, nearly every one present
having more or less to say.
The question at Issue was what was
to be gained ii such a convention was
held. Mr.. Cochran, who was the orig.
inal moyer for the convention in the
chamber OF commerce, was not at all
strenuous in his Judgment that it was
advantageous or would accomplish any
thing. MessrS. Hackett and Dyer be
lieyed it better to go ahead, while
Messrs. Kelly, Noyes, Davidson and
Faulkner considered it of doubtful eXpe-
dlency. There WAS unanimity in favor Of
the repeal of the monthly purchase of
bullion, but concerning what to do be-
yond that views differed. Mr.. Kelly
said Marcus DAILY, one of the largest
silver mine owners in Montana,
was i'll favor of stopping the
purchase of bullion by the government.
Senator HansbrOugh. of North Dakota.
was quoted aS occupying similar posi-
tion. 1t was conceded that the silver
men were entitled to consideration. and
that convention 10 declare hostility to
that interest throughout was of doubt
full eXpediency.
1t WAS argued by those opposed to the
convention that any more formal decla-
ration against the Sherman law than
had already been made by the respect
i've bodies was unnecessary, and What
to recommend i'll addition they were not
agreed upon.
the meeting adjourned until 4 D. m.
today without deciding anything.

Physicians Lay Ills Death to Peri
tOnitiS.
Drs. Ohage and Nelson, who attended
Christ Sagen, are of the opinion that
there is no foundation for the SUPPOSE
ton that his demise was predisposed by
a kick that he might nave received at
the picnic on the Fourth. He had
typhoid fever, ana he died from peri
tonitis. The doctors do not deny that it
was possible that the deceased might
have been kicked, but they aver that a
surgical operation was performed upon
the patient aud that there was no indi-
cation of external injury. If he had
been kicked, as is claimed, the kick
must have been light. There was no
abrasion of the skin, not even bruiSe,
manifest. The doctors are of the opin-
ion that the man had been sick several
days before medical aid was called, and
several DAYS before the man went To st.
Joseph'S hospital. Acute peritonlts
was the cause assigned for his death.

Heavx Owners Diner.

James Middleton made speech In
favor of the scheme, and stated that he
is willing to pay his assessment on his
thirty-seven lots. as ne believes that the
land is adapted to the purpose.
William BanholZer says that he has
forty-nine lots that would be assessed.
but he doesn't want the park. He made
a plea for the people who are opposing
the measure, and who he declared are
unable TO meet the expense.
Mr.. Horton stated that j. c. Stout had
withdrawn his opposition because he
had been given bond to indemnify HIM
from assessments, and wanted TO know
of MI Middleton ii such an arrange
ment had been made with him.
MIR Middleton denied any such mo-
tive, when a young man arose and
stated that Mr.. Middleton told him a
few days ago that he was opposed to the
park and that he could not afford to paw
the assessment.
Mr.. Middleton's face colored, but he
made no reply 10 the statement.
Paul A.. Merwin made strong speech
in favor of continuing the proceedings.
He declared that three-fonrths of the
properly interests want the park. He
also stated to the board in executive
session that some of his clients have
mortgage on their property, and il will
bankrupt them if the city does not take
the land off their hands.
George II. Vernon stated in yigor-
Gus speech that he had never before
opposed an assessment, but felt dis
posed to make a protest at this time be-
cause of the hardship imposed. With
the winter coming Oh, and many men of
families in the district out of work. it
would be great hardship to take from
them their lots. as would necessarily
follow.
Mr.. Desnoyer stated that he could pay
his assessment, but it would be a hard
ship on most Of the people to be as
sessed, because even many rich men
can not get needed money in these hard
times.
The audience was then dismissed by
Mr.. WneelOck, and the board proceeded
to discuss the matter at great length.
Mr.. Horton wanted his resolution
adopted and argued the matter from
several standpoints. Mr.. Wheelock
took the view that it was only necessary
10 postpone the matter for the present.
MIR. Merwin claimed it due the property
owners for the city 10 take the property
