NEW YORK BANKERS.
Three Papers Read at Their Last
Season.

NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y, July 18-
This afternoon the New York State
bankers assembled for their concluding
business session. Three addresses were
delivered. Hon. G. r. Sloane, of Os-
swego, spoke upon 1.-The Uses and Use
fulness of Banks Mr. Sloane said re-
ferring to the question of coinage:
Free silver is on its last legs" Hon
s. M. Griswold, of Brooklyn, made an
address entitled THE Prosperity Of
Banks Insures the Prosperity of the
People, and the Government" and
President James H. Tripp, of the First
National Bank, of Marathon, spoke on
''Will the Business Interests Of the
Country be Benefited by a Further Ex-
pansion Of the Currency"
Officers for the ensuing year were
elcted as follows: President, Hon.
Seymour Dexter, Elmira; vice presi-
dent, Stephen M. Griswold, BROOKLYN:
treasurer, C. F. Vanimwegin, Port
Jervis; secretary, John A. Kennedy.
Buffalo. Delegates to the national con:
ventfon in ST Louis next month were
elected. Saratoga was chosen as the
meeting place and July 10, 1897, as the
date for the next convention. The
bankers adopted unanimously a resolu-
tion denouncing free silver coinage and
declared that gold Is the only proper
standard of money and appointed a
committee to send out educational
literature to the voters of the state to
prove the eminence Of gold.

BREAKS HIS SILENCE.
Taubeneck Tells His Party What 1T
Should Do.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July 1S.-Chairman
Taubeneck, of the Peoples party ma
tional committee, who has had nothing
to say for publication since the Chi
eago convention, has at last broken
his silence and submitted to an inter
Are you in favor Of the Populists
indorsing the Democratic ticket NOM
mated at Chicago?" he was asked.
No; under no consideration will ]
vote to indorse Bryan and Sewall at
the Populist convention to be held in
this city July %. That would mean
the surrender and destruction Of the
Peoples party organization
= Have you any idea what the Popu-
lists will do toward combining all the
elements opposed to the gold standard
in the coming campaign"
Il believe that the Peoples party
convention will favor the idea of NOM
mating a candidate for president and
vice president and then combine the
votes of the two parties on one set of
electors. This can be done without the
sacrifice of principles or our organi-
zation and will also unite the elements
opposed to: the gold standard
DO you believe that if the Peoples
party national convention should in
dorse Mr.. Bryan that the entire vote
of that part would go to Bryan at the
polls next November
4 mo; If the Peoples party national
convention should indorse Mr.. Bryan
and Mr.. Sewall, the leaders could not
deliver more than 66 per cent of the
rPopulist vote throughout the United
States. The members Of the Peoples
party possess a strong individuality
and will not follow their leaders if they
attempt to lead them against their will.
The stay at home vote in the Peoples
party would be large enough to defeat
Bryan in many of the Western states''
DO you think that if the Peoples
party should nominate a candidate for
president and vice president and then
combine on electors that the entire vote
could be polled for such electors?''
yes, believe that the full Populist
strength could be polled at the Novem-
Der election for electors. This, in my
opinion. is the only possible way to de-
feat Mckinley at the polls next Novem-
Der. Since the Chicago convention, !
have communicated with Populists
throughout the United States and know
that the Democratic ticket nominated
at Chicago will not be indorsed by our
convention next week

TAUBENECK BACK.
Accomplished Little by His Trip to
Chicago.

ST. LOUIS, July 1S.-Chairman Tau
beneck has returned from Chicago, and
his coming was the signal for renewed
activity on the part of the Populists
who hope to prevent Endorsement of
Bryan and the Chicago platform. His
visit to Chicago, partly due to his fear
that the Illinois delegation would leave
him In the lurch was apparently not
productive of results. This morning he
was in secret conference with the anti
Bryan leaders, and the national head
quarters were practically deserted. Mr..
Taubeneck, it is said, found several
stumbling blocks in his path in Chicago.
For one thing, DR.. Taylor, one of the
most prominent members of the Peo-
pies party in Illinois. is not following
passively his lead. There are so many
other Populists in Illinois who are be-
lieved to hold the same opinion, that
Mr.. Taubeneck is disturbed To have
his own delegation go against him
would be very distasteful. In the dis
cussion with the anti-Bryan men this
morning, no definite plan of action was
agreed upon, but they seem determin-
ed to make straight out fight for
separate ticket. AT the Bryan head
quarters there was much jubilation over
the growing. strength of the movement
to fndorse Bryan and Sewall.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, July 1S.-Henry
c. Payne, who has just returned from
an important conference in Cleveland,
says that the Chicago headquarters of
the committee will be opened in a
short time in the Auditorium building
Chairman Hanna will divide his time
between the New York and Chicago
headquarters, but Chicago will be the
main headquarters, as 1t is near the
center Of the political contest. New
York will look after all campaign mat
ters in the New England, Eastern and
coast states, as far as Florida on the
coast. Chicago will look after every
thing in the states of Ohio, Mississippi
and Missouri valleys, and everything
west and south to the Pacific coast, in
cludng Kentucky, Tennessee and Ala
bama. All the literature of the cam
paign will be handled at and sent out
from Chicago. The committee propo-

CRUSHING DEFEAT.
Said to Have Been Administered to
the Spaniards.

the Span1ards.
KEY WEST, Fla, July 1S.-The
Spaniards under Gen. Suarez Inclan
have sustained a crushing defeat at
the hands of the insurgents under An
tonic Maceo. Not only was Inclan's
column defeated with heavy loss, but
it is currently reported in Havana that
the Spanish general himself was cap
tured, and is now held as q prisoner
by Maceo. The battle is said to have
occurred on July 10 near Maceo's
stronghold, In the province of Pinar del
Rio For the last two weeks the insur-
gents have been very aggressive, and
small parties have repeatedly attacked
the trocha, causing the Spaniards much
annoyance. Gen. Inclan was ordered
to drive back these detached bands of
insurgents, and for this purpose took
with him 1000 men.
Maceo seems to have expected such
a movement and arranged to ambush
the Spaniards He stationed q large
force in a favorable position, and or
dered his detached bands to draw In
clan into the trap The Spaniards fol-
lowed the insurgents skirmishers in
cautiously and fell into the ambush
Then the Cubans opened fire from all
sides which threw the Spaniards into
confusion. While the Spaniards were
thus disordered the Cuban's charged
completely routing their foes Gen.. IN
clan made a desperate effort to rally
his demoralized forces but was sur
rounded by the Cuban's and compelled
tC surrender It is said in Havana
that the Spaniards were pursued al
most to the trocha and lost more than
300 men killed and wounded. There
were IA officers among the killed.

BoLrrNG SILVER MEN.
They VIII Issue Their Manifesto
This Evening ...l.4

MANITOU, Col, July 18.-All Of the silver
how best to unite the silver forces are now
here. The members of the conference pres
ent include Senator'S Teller. Of Colorado;
Mantle, of Montana; Pettigrew, of South Da-
kota, and Dubois, Of Idaho; Congressman
Hartman, of Montana; Wilson, Of Idaho:
Burchinel, of West Virginia; Shafroth, Of
Colorado, and Hon. M. A. Stevens, Of Dem
yer. The party got together in the rooms OF
Senator Dubois tonight and informally talked
over the situation, discussing every phase Of
1t, each. offering suggestions as to how best
to promote the cause for which all are fight
ing.
Senator Teller submitted draft of an ad-
dress to. the people which he had prepared,
and Senator Dubois offered some additional
suggestions to be embodied.
Senator Teller stated that although they
had canvassed the situation pretty thorough
ly, they would not be able to give the ad-
dress to the press until Sunday evening. 1t
will contain about $500 words, fully setting
forth the situation and conditions which con-
front them, and which influence the present
action. They will unequivocally indorse
Bryan and Sewall, giving in detail their rea-
sons therefor, and outlining what they be-
lieve to be the best line of campaign for the
silver forces. They each expressed the hope
that the Populist convention at st. Louis,
as well as the silver convention will indorse
the nominee of the Chicago convention, but
they are not particularly encouraged over the
present prospects from the Populists. None
of them viii attend the st. Louis conven-
ton.

Gen. Maceo Tells Just What He
Needs.


Needs.
NEW YORK, July 19-The World
this morning publishes the following
correspondence from the headquar-
ters of Gen. Maceo:
1.-THE want of a few cartridges and
cannon" said Gen. Antonio Maceo SIS
all that makes our government use
natures rocks instead of brick and
mortar for a white house"
Asked how many and what arms and
ammunition he needs to guarantee to
win the war, say in two months, he
said: 'I could do it with 10000 cheap
Remington rifles, small calibre; 1,5OO,-
600 cartridges, ten cannon and 10O,O 900
rounds of artillery ammunition I
might do it with much less would
invariably attack the Spaniards and
attack them after manoeuvering their
columns into cul-de-sacs, and I would
take an important town. The supplies
captured. they would assist in the cap
ture of the next one and so, on until
/ would be able to storm Havana with
it's fully equipped army of 100000 men
and fifty pieces of artillery. From the
land 1t could be thus easily taken.
Armed with all classes Of firearms,
from shotguns to Mausers we have now
10000 men in our organized forces, East,
Central and West. In addition to our
$4,000 armed men, we have fully 10000
more armed only with the macf1ete and
revolver, thus giving us probable
total of $4,000 revolutionists in the field.
Could we thoroughly equip these pa
triots, Cuba would soon be free from
Spanish oppression and outrage. I
estimate that the Cuban's have seven
cartridges to each soldier.
II have no dictatorial aspiration. /
shall use what influence I possess in
the government Of the republic of Cuba
only to secure it's stability and pro-
mote its prestige. The moment the
flag of Spain leaves our shores I shall
recommend the payment and dismissal
to the peaceful pursuits from which he
was taken of every armed man of our
army of liberty except the few police
men necessary to enforce the obser-
vance of the law of the republic"

tonight. 1--WE must indorse or nomin-
ate Bryan" he said. ''The attitude Of
the Southern delegates will have no
effect at all. They are putting them
selves in a very foolish position. If an
independent ticket were nominated the
rank and file would not support 1t. We
must unite all our forces for free sill
Yer. That is what the people demand
and what they must have. We need

Senator Peffer also came in. 1.-THE

issue, every Populist should be on the
side of free silver. The convention
will indorse Bryan, there Is nothing
else for 1t to do.''
Gov. Lewellyn, of Kansas, another
arrival, said: "The Chicago platform
is as strong as the resolutions adopted
by the Populist state convention of
Kansas. and in many respects went
further toward giving relief to the peo-
pie. The convention here will indorse

ST. LOUIS, July 1S-The silver peo-
pie who are to hold their convention
Wednesday are very quiet Few of them
are here, and none of the delegations
are expected before Monday The
leaders this morning formulated a new
demand, which meets the approval Of
the Popu1ists who have been consulted
1t is that they shall insist upon the
withdrawal of all the Democratic con-
gressional nominees, who are sound
money, or gold standard men, or If they
will not withdraw, the silver men and
Populists unite in putting up In every
congressional district free silver can
didate. This, 1t is urged, should be pre-
sented to the national Democratic COM
mittee as an ultimatum. The Populists
1t is understood, are to concentrate
their work, and attempt to elect con-
gress which will favor free silver, and
to accomplish this, it is necessary to
have the cooperation of the Demo-
cratic party. The Populists who are op-
posed to Mr.. Bryan say If he is nomi-
mated the delegates of Rhode Island,
Delaware, Massachusetts, and possibly
Tennessee, will bolt.

to preside over the meeting. Enthus-
iasm knew no bounds and for fully two
minutes the tumult kept up. When he

This letter greatly pleased Mr.. Bry-
an. When he had finished his break
fast this morning he turned his at
tention to the vast amount Of mail
that had accumulated during his alb
sence. There were over 5000 letters to
be opened and read, and among the
first to be opened was that from Mr..
Teller. The letters were taken to Mr..
Bryan's home, where he and his wife
in their library began the arduous
task of reading them. Mr.. Bryan will
not attempt to answer all of them un-
til he has established headquarters
and secured a private secretary. He
will only attend to the more important
letters
Mr. Bryan was frequently inter-
rupted by callers today. Among the
gentlemen to call was G. r. Wash
burn. of Boston, a member of the Pop
ulist national committee, and T. M.
Patterson, editor of the Rocky Noun
tain News, of Denver. Mr.. Patterson
assured Mr.. Bryan that he would re-
ceive the support of all the Democrats
of Colorado, majority of the Pop
ulfsts, and q great many Republicans
as well. He said that he believed that
80 per cent of the vote In Colorado
would be for Bryan and free silver
Mr.. Patterson is a delegate to the
Populist convention at st. Louis. and
assured Mr.. Bryan that he would do
all in his power to have that conven-
ton indorse him for President.
Extensive preparations are being
made for the reception Of the delega-
tions from Colorado, Wyoming and
Utah, who will stop here Monday to
pay their respects to Mr. Bryan. They
will leave for the st. Louis convention

CAR BARN BLAZE.

CHICAGO, July 1s.-The car barns Of the
Chicago City Railroad company on Cottage
Grove avenue, near Thirty ninth street were
destroyed by fire tonight. The barns were
filled with cars, being the stable for the en-
tire system. The company lost 564 cars Not
thing in the building was saved. The loss
is estimated at. fully $500, 600, the building and
contents being insured for $s11 900. The fire
once started burned with great rapidity, and
the fremen experienced great dificulty in
preserving many OF the adjoining buildings.
They managed, however, to confne the fire to
the car barns. OF thirty horses in the barn,
sixteen were saved and fourteen burned In
their stalls. q. "a
