of Arkansas, who joined with Senators

purposes of the meeting. He says:
''At Memphis, after the adjournment of the

different states had meeting at the Gayoso
hotel, and after consideration that meeting
requested Sen ,tors Harris, Turpie and me
to take steps to organize the silver demo-
Gratis SO that they should be fairly
represented in the next national convention
We concluded that the best way to do this was
to first organize national central committee
Of silver democrats. consisting Of one or more
members for each state, and let these
| members look after the organization OF
their own states. To select gentlemen
for membership of this committe by cor
respondence seemed SLOW; hence it was
concluded to invite oae or more gentlemen Of
character and experience from eucn state to
meet in Washington and select, II they thought
well Of it, this Ct ntral committee. This is all
| there is Of it as I understand
The general impression seems to have
gone out. that this conference was to
be mass-meeting. Senator Jones'
statement puts it in different light.

LONDON, July Is. Sir William Har-
courts defeat in Derby is the sensation
in political circles. 1t is admitted
on all sides that the +, liberals
are beginning very badly. OF ITO
members thus far elected ninety-six
are unionists, ten liberals and four
Parpellites. Eight liberal seats have
been captured by the unionists, and
the radicals have captured one union
list seat, thatat Perth. The moral effect
of Sir William Harcourt's defeat will
be great, as even the most sanguine
conservative did not expect a liberal
majority of 1900 to be converted into
q .unionist majority Of 100. Sir Will
liam Harcourt's defeat is general y at
tributed to the prominence which he
gave to the local veto or local option
