DEl.EGATES GATHERING; FOR THE
lLINOlSL CONVENTION.
The Sentiment Among the ID clegntex
In Favor of Free silver Seems to
BE So Nearly Unanimous That
There In No Show for .
Fight.
lie In Watching Events and Expects
Tint the Populists Will Profit by
the Free Silver Movcment.

Springfield, ILL.,, June G.-The Demo-
cratic state convention called by the
state central committee to adopt Il
policy for the party of Illinois upoG
the money question will convene at
noon tomorrow. There is every intli-
cation that every county in the state
will be represented by its full quota of
delegates. The sentiment among the
delegates in favor of free silver seems
to be so nearly unanimous that there
is no prospect of even Il show OF Il
fight from the opposition. The move
ment in the direction of Il national
money convention seems to he gaining
force every hour.
The sudden appearance here to-day
of Herman Il. Taubcncck, who will be
remembered as one of the l.. Nj. B. n.
members in the famous senatorial
fight of 1891, caused much comment.
He said this afternoon that he had no
interest in the convention except as II
spectator. He added, however, that
certain managers of the Democratic
party are now planning to steal the
Populist platform" Taubeneck has
no objection to this; in fact, lie is do
ing all he can to encourage the agita-
ton, for he feels sure it will in time
disrupt the Democratic party.
THE silver element of the party"
said he, lis much more in evidence
now than the other wing, but this is
owing to the fact that the silver move
mcnt is being promoted by the ma
chine of the party. The silver Demo-
Gratis in Illinois are not nearly so nu-
merous as they seem. / think it may
be safely estimated that fully one
third of the Democrats of illinois
would drive these men out of the
Democratic party. When the issue is
finally forced upon the Republican
party, as it must be, it will certainly
prove dcmoralizing. Ultimately the re-
suit will he that the Peoples party
will gather in all the free silver men
OF the coutry. Personally, favor the
union of all the forces opposed to the
gold standard in next years cam
paign. l mean the silver Democrats
of the South and the West, the silver
Republicans of the West, the Popu-
lists OF the whole country and the bi-
metallic party. II this union can be
accomplished, the victory for silver is
won. If 1t cannot be. the contest for
1896 is lost. These elements cannot
be united in either the Republican or
Democratic parties. l Tcel sure that
the silver sentiment of the country
will eventually be consolidated into
one party. That party must be the
Peoples party"

kENRICk NOT DEpOsED.

Mgr. Kahn In Only Given Power ns
COadjutOr to Carry ON the Work.
Rome, June Cit is stated ut the
Vatican that the brief cable from st.
Louis announcing the pope's deposit
tion of Archbishop Kcnrick and the
nomination in his stead of Archbishop
Kahn as his successor, is due to all un-
fortunate misapprehcnsion Of Il cable
from Rome, which summarized the ac-
tion taken by the congregation of the
propaganda. The written decree was
mailed to the United States several
days ago, and gives in full detail the
contemplated changes. 1t does not de-
pose Archbishop Kenrick from his
present position, nor does it appoint
Archbishop Kain as his successor.
Such action could only have been ia
ken through a papal bull. The present
action is a decree of the congregation,
made for the purpose of assisting in
the management and administration
of the church property Of the diocese.

complete and final answer Of Spain to
the demand of Secretary Gresham for
a disavowal of the firing on the United

doubtedly one of the main subjects
which Acting Secretary of State Uhl

to be entirely satisfactory to this gov

is an Gndoubted fact, it is also certain
that the president has not even lnti-
mated to Mr.. Olney that it is his pur-
pose. owever, it is learned that he
mas stated IN substance that he should
ask Mr.. Olney to accept the place and
