Special From staff Correspondent.
ST. LOUIS, June 13.-With all the ar
rivals today added 20 the crowd there are
not yet enough people assembled to fill
oEe-third of the Southern Hotel lobby. At
midday there We're not a thousand per-
sons in the lobby and corridors, though all
the interest in the convention is centered
there. Tomorrow and Monday the great
est rush will come, but the outlook Is
that the attendance viii be smaller than
for many years
Depew, Warner Miller and Foraker were
the big guns who arrived today. When
Foraker entered the Southern Hotel this
morning he given an ovation from the
moment he crossed the threshold until he
had got behind the closed door of Hanna S

followed him through the corridors. shaking
hands with him and making all sorts of
demonstrations of enthusiasm
Grosvenor and ex-Secretary Foster, who
arrived last night; Gov. Bushnell, c. l..
Kurtz and others of the Ohio leaders have
been in conference with Hanna and For
aker during the morning, and from time
to time prominent men from other states
have slipped into Hanna's room, joining
the group for q few minutes. Mr.. Hanna
is having still more trouble ever the plat
form. Having expressed his willingness to
accept a declaration for the present gold
standard" he is now being pulled and
The Michigan delegation, who are for
Mckinley, have arrived and are protest
ing very earnestly against the of the
term gold Standard They add their
voice to the general cry of the Nc Kinlay
delegates from the middle west and silver
states.
The Michigan men say that it will never
do in the world to declare outright for
gold. They say they will not feel safe
about their state if it is done.
EX-Representative Allen said this morn
ing that while there was no downright sill
yer man in the delegation. they all opposed
a gold standard Plank, and were doing all
they could to prevent one being decided on.
What they want, he said. is to make the
tariff the principal thing and to declare
that the republican party can be trusted to
settle the financial question according to
the best interests of the country.
In other words. want to let the mon
ey question alone at this time. We shall
put on the committee of resolutions from
Michigan man who would take the gold
standard rather than silver, but who will
do ali he can to prevent a gold declara-
tion.'
Representatives of the Kansas, Michigan
and Iowa delegations are to have confer
ence with Mr. Hanna, and intend to state
to him that in their opinion the use of the
phrase gold standard" in the platform will
cost the party the electoral votes of those
states J. p. NJ.

ST. LOUIS, June 13.-The members of
the national republican committee were not
very prompt in getting together today,
after the long and somewhat trying ses-
sion OF yesterday. The work was not be-
gun until quarter past 10, and there was
scarcely quorum present then. Imme-
diately after calling the committee to or
der Chairman Carter warned parties to
contests of the importance of being pres
ent when their cases We're called, in view
OIL the order made yesterday requiring
cases TO be presented in the order called
whether the parties at interest were pres
ent or absent, except upon unanimous con-
SENT Mr.. Carter said it would, in order to
expedite the business, be necessary to
strictly enforce the rule.
The Tennessee contests were promptly
taken up. the first contest presented being
that from the sixth district of that state.
which includes the city of Nashville The
Shofner, and the contestees ]. B. Bosley
and H. L. w. Cheatham. All were Mckin-
ley.
The contest turned upon charges of irreg-
ularities in the congressional convention
Involving the conduct Of the chairman,
Mr.. Cheatham, one Of the contestees, hay-
Ing occupied that position. 1t was asserted,
on the other hand, that the convention was
entirely regular. and that the bolt had no
other excuse than that colored man was
made chairman. On motion of Mr. Manley
Bosley and Cheatham were seated.
From the ninth district, which followed.
David A. Num- and Henry E. Austin were
the delegates CHOSEN by one faction ard J.
r. Walker and Robert II. McNeeley those
of the other, the latter two appearing as
contestants. This contest turned entirely
upon the alleged arbitrariness' of the chair
man Of the district convention in ruling for
the unit rule from counties, notwithstand-
ing there had been no Instructions from the
counties to this effect. Mr.. Walker, one of
the contestants, who appeared for himself
and McNeeley, said that knives and bludg-
cons were freely displayed and that much
confusion ensued. After the split in the
convention the seceders met in the same
hall Mr.. Walker declared that his con-
vention contained a small majority of the
delegates. Num- and Austin were seated.
They are for Mckinley.
