ONE DAY WILL BE ENOUGH
Unless There Is Prolonged Debate Over Reso
 Iutions-The Other Side.

luliUno HC OiHCl
 Memphis, May 21--The visitors at tracted to the city by the military tour nament are evacuating the hotels to- night, but within the next twenty-four hours the hotels will again be crowded with delegates to the interstate conven- tion on sound money and improved bank ing facilities, which assemblies on Thurs day.
 At it's meeting today the executive com mittee having charge of the arrange ments for the gathering decided upon several names from which to select per manent chairman, but it was decided to refrain from making public the identity of them until one or the other had signi- fled his acceptance. It was given out however, that two or three were con- gressmen and that none of these were Tennessee men. c. c. Mathews of, the editorial staff of the Commercial-Appeal was chosen as permanent secretary of the convention.
 Secretary Carlisle will arrive at 8 o'clock on Thursday morning, but will remain in his car until s, when a commit- tee will meet him and escort him to the city and to his hotel.
 The convention will be called to order at 10 o'clock, and immediately follow ing the permanent organization the sec retary of the treasury will be, intro duced After his address the conven- tion will take a. recess until D. m., when the report of the resolution committee will be submitted. Unless this document gives rise to a prolonged debate a sec ond days session will not be necessary.
 Meanwhile the friends of silver are not inactive At a meeting this afternoon of the Bimetallic club, an organization com posed largely of the members of the cot ton exchange who are not in accord with the action of that body in promoting the convention of Thursday, the following supplementary call was issued:
 All communities favoring the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 are invited to send delegates to the bi- metallic convention to be held at Mem phis on June 12 and 13. A large number of speakers of national reputation will address the convention.

 Little did we think years ago when Dr. Holloway, our great southern specialist, located infBirmingh gham and modestly an nounced through the columns of the Her ald that he would treat only a special class of diseases that he would ever achieve an international reputation. To our personal knowledge from across the ocean, In far away England, they have learned of his skill and fame and consult him. We be- lieve with the doctor that truth, merit and honor always win. He stands at the head "a pleasant gentleman, an able physician and is recognized as the leading author ity in the treatment of all private diseases. Birmin gham may well be proud of him.
