SILVER MEN GATHERING.
A Large Number of Delegates
From All Over the State
in Town.
Nevada Sends Down a Strong Rep
resentation-The Convention to
Meet at Noon.

The Silver Convention will meet this
morning at noon at Metropolitan Temple.
A large number of the delegates arrived in
the City yesterday. Headquarters were
opened at the Occidental Hotel. A strong
delegation came down from Nevada, and
most of them were at the Occidental last
evening. They have brought down with
them to display at the convention a silver
banner, which was the first ever unfurled
in the country. 1t was used in the great
campaign in 1892 in Nevada.
Senator Jones was invited to speak, but,
as Sam Davis explained last evening, de-
clined on the ground that it would look too
much, on account of his position. as if the
Nevada people wished to dictate to the
convention They consider themselves
rather as guests of the California dele
gates. 1t is expected that Senator Stewart
will probably be here before the conven-
ton adiourns.
To-days meeting will be called to order
by George w. Baker, chairman of the ex-
ecutive committee of the Bimetallic
name of Judge Budd, the Governor S
father, in nomination for temporary chair
man, but he has decllued to allow it owing
to his sons illness.
It is expected that there will be about 900
delegates present.
