CULDERsoN UNEASY.


Dallas. Tex, Aug. lS.-The speeches
of Col. w. 7. Crawford and t. j. Bal
linger In the Culberson caucus tonight
caused the Culberson leaders some I'M
easiness, Both speakers laid great
stress upon the necessity OF unquali-
ned Endorsement OF President Cleve-
lnnd. who was referred to In the most
glowing terms. A delegate arose nj one
period and said while he yielded TO no
man in his Endorsement and admira-
ton OF Cleveland that the meeting was
a Culberson caucus and should connne
itself to matters pertaining to the
interests Of their candidates. The re-
marks of Culberson were taken nv
many to mean difference with tho
Views Of previous remarks. lie refer
REQ to the plain statement he had
made of his fvieWs on every question
and that he desired platform which
should not cast suspicion Of a strad-
die, Taking these expressions togeth-
er II was assumed that he did not favor
an Endorsement Of the president upon
the silver question.
This matter has occasioned no little
comment tonight. Although Mr..
Culberson's remarks were not sum
GENTLY clear 10 constitute n direct
statement IN the question, the Inference
was almost unavoidable that he dIf-
fered from his spolsesmen and adj
vocates. This dampened somewhat
the enthusiasm for Cleveland among
n number OF his supporters.
