is that where a curve turns off from the
main track. A driver of one of Master
sons express agons which plies be-
tween New York and Bayonne cities, had
a peculiar experience with the tracks
at the junction last night. One wheel
was on the outside of the rail on the
left hand side of the westlbound track
on Grand street. The other followed the
switch nto Communipaw avenue. The
result came suddenly.
With a sharp crack the back axle broke
off short IN either side. The body of the
w~ell-loaded wagon came to the ground
with a crash and the two wheels lay
on their sides, each with a portion of the
axle stuck in the hub.
The goods and wheels were placed on
another truck and taken to Bayonne.
The wagon stood at the Junction all
night.

kERENS' FINANCIAL PLANK.
Gaining Favor With the DELEGATES
Now on the Ground.

ST. LOUIS, June 1.-Sentimant
among the delegates already on the
ground seems to be crystallizing in IA
vor of the financial plank promulgated
by National Committeeman r. C. Ke-
rens OF this city, which was given in
the United Press dispatches last night
Mr.. kerens admits that he is not the
author of the proposed plank, and that
1t IS the handiwork of "a prominent
Republican" Taken in connection with
his recent visit to Canton, there have
been submitted to and received the
approval of Mckinley. On this point
however, Mr.. Kerens will not satisfy
his inquirers either pro or con, while
in line with their previous position that
the convention rather than the candi-
date should make the platform, Mark
Hanna and his lieutenants continue to
regard the topic as tabooed, and will
not touch it even in generalities.

ing of Senators Proctor of Vermont.
Ilansborough of North Dakota, Payne
of Wisconsin and Ex-Governor Fifer of

cy of clear and emphatic declaration

talk and influence is beginning to have

ST. LOUIS, June 11-H. Clay Evans
who was prominent yesterday as the
Mckinley boomers choice for Vice
President seems to have lost ground
to-day. Hon. Garrett A. Hobart OF
New Jersey is tonight on every tongue.
The latest evidence of this preference
is a large button bearing the pictures
and names of the combination. Sena-
tor Thurston, who is to second the
nomination of Mckinley, was this
morning the first to spring this badge on
his coat lapel. By noon the display Of
the button on prominent delegates, all
McKinleyites, was sufficiently general
to excite wide comment, and it was ad-
mitted that the buttons were procurable
in any quantity.
The boom for General Edwin A. Nc
Alpin for the Vice-Presidency will be
formally launched on Saturday, with
the arrival of the New York delegation.
The white buttons bearing the names
of the two Macs are becoming sig
the Southern, and with the arrival of
each member of the Republican Ma
tional League another is added. Cen
eral McAlpin, beside the league
strength, has the support of both the
Plat and anti-Platt strength in New

rich himself, will, if nominated, COM

form declaration covering the tariff and
finance This was said to have eman-
ated from Mr.. Hanna, and reached the
public after passing through several
hands. Mr.. Hanna denies its paternity,
and those who read the ambiguous pro-
duction readily believed him. The
closest tracing back to first hands has
not produced anyone who will father 1t.
1t was certainly in the hands of several
members of the National Committee.
AS a straw showing the unsettled
state of opinion, it is given: The Re
publican party is in favor of protec-
tive tariff system which will afford ad-
equate protection to American indus
tries, but which will also produce reVe-
nue. in excess of expenditures, and thus
solve the financial problem. The people
of this country are satisfied with the
currency as it now exists. 1t is the
conviction of the Republican party that
the money of the Nation should be as
good as that of the enlightened ma
tons of the world, and should pass
current in the markets of the world

Committee and Congressman Odell of

suite of rooms on the third floor of the
Southern Hotel, which has been the
mecca of nearly all the politicians in

fore midnight:
Mr.. Morton's name will be pre-
sented to the convention" Mr.. Platt
was asked
1T will. There is no truth in the re-
port that he will be withdrawn. He
will be presented as the gold-standard
candidate of New York, where every
body is gold man.
Shall you hazard a prediction as to
the conventions choice?''
Il know whom they ought to nom
mate" was the significant reply.
"Will the platform declare for the sim
gle gold standard?"
Il hope so. / am much pleased since
my arrival in town to find that so many
delegates favor the gold standard. !
am told that a majority of the conven-
ton will be gold men,
What do you think Of the National
committees action in unseating SO

All 1 can say" replied Mr.. Plat.
dryly, sis that Il hope they will dea,
more fairly with the others yet to be
considered than they have with those
upon which action has been taken. In
other words, l hope these contests will
be settled upon their merits, and not
because the men seated will vote for
Mckinley"
