regards this as the sugar crop of the

convention is admirable The plat

will be one OF the important issues OF

necessity that there should be some

the continuing deficits in the treasury

ST. LOUIS, June 16.-Colonel Trun-
DO sizes up the situation as follows, in
a. signed statement:
1.-THE platform of the St. Louis con-
vention will be a declaration for the
gold standard. Platt wants it; Quay
insists upon it; Hanna. will not OPP
pose it, and Mckinley will accept it..
Hanna. will not oppose 1T because Platt
and Quay have told him that he must
swallow it, or run chances of seeing
Mckinley defeated at the polls, and
Hanna has the making of the plat
form.
He not only owns a majority OF the
convent ion, but has
MORTGAGE ON THE PLATFORM
COMMITTEE.
''It was to carry out his gold ideas
that Foraker was made chairman of
the committee ON resolutions; it was a
part of the machine programme, and it
went through without a, hitch.
.'Hanna's leanings ON the financial
question We're shown when Foraker
named the sub committee ON platform.
OF the nine men designated, eight were
pronounced gold bugs. Great is the
power of Hanna. and his machine.
There has never been a moment since
we first started when the silver men
HAD THE SLIGHTEST CHANCE
of i1npressing their views upon this
gathering. The money lenders of tine
east have simply said to the west:
1--WE no longer need you in the Re
publican party. You are showing too
great a spirit of independence, and we
are going to give you a demonstration
of our ability to do without you and
your votes
Hanna and his followers profess to
believe that they can elect Mckinley
without the voIes of the FAR western
states, and are relying upon the money
to be furnished by Wall street to buy
votes enough in Indiana, Illinois, Iowa
and Minnesota. to see them through,
with the help of the east. This is the
how it Will work when the people cast
their votes in November My own
opinion, based ON a close
STUDY OF THE SITUATION,
is that the Republicans will not carry
a single state west of Ohio. The silver
sentiment is rampant in Indiana, and
is growing every hour in Illinois and
Iowa. Missouri, that went Republican
two years ago, will roll up a. majority
of $4,000 for silver. Kansas and Ne
braska are hopelessly lost, if this con-
vention declares for gold. The truth
of the matter is that the Republicans
have committed a fatal blunder. Nc.
Kinley was selected to run a. year ago
when it was believed that the tariff
could be the issue, and now that the
financial question has been forced tc
the front, he is a political misfit. This
mistake has been discovered, but tins
time to rectify has gone by.

WASHINGTON. June 16.-In reply
to a request from the New York Her
aid for statement concerning the
Democratic situation, President Cleve-
land tonight sent the following to that
newspaper:
81 have made no figures as to the
probable action of the delegates al
ready chosen or TO be chosen to the
Democratic national convention; but
refuse to believe that when the time
arrives for deliberate action there will
be engrafted upon our Democratic
creed a. demand for the free, I'M
limited and independent coinage of
silver.
Il cannot believe this, because
know the Democratic party is neither
unpatriotic nor foolish, and because
it seems so clear to me that such
course will infiict very great injury
upon every
INTEREST OF OUR COUNTRY.
which it has bsen the mission of the
Democracy to advance. and will re-
suit in lasting disaster to our party
organization. There is little hope that
as a means of success this free silver
proposition, after its thorough discus
sion during the political campaign. will
attract a majority of the votes Of the
country.
ct must be that many Of the illu-
sions Influencing those now relying
upon this alleged panacea for their
ills, will be dispelled before the time
comes for them to- cast their ballots,
which will express their sober second
thought. The adoption by the De-
mocracy of this proposition would, 1
believe, give to our opponents an adj
vantage both in the present and the
future which they do not deserve.
my attachment to true Democracy
is so strong that I consider it's sue
cess as identical with the promotion
of the country's good. This ought suf-
fciently to
ACCOUNT FOR MY ANXIETY
that no mistake be made at our party
convention. In my opinion, no effort
should be spared to secure such action
of the delegates as will avert party
| decentralization. There is time for con-
sultation and a comparison of views;
and those Democrats who believe in
the cause Of sound money should be
heard and be constantly in evidence.
A cause worth fighting for is worth
fighting for to the end. If sound
money Democrats waver in their sup
port, there is danger of d. mistake be-
ing made. Such danger should stimu-
late their activity in averting it. in
stead OF creating encouragement.
am very far from arrogating to myself
the controlling influence upon the
policy of my party, but as an unhinch-
ing Democrat who has been honored
by his party and who desires hereafter
no greater political privilege than to
occupy the place of a, private in it's
ranks 1 hope may be not blamed for
saying this much at this time in the
interest of our grand old organization,
so rich in honorable traditions, so just
ly proud of it's achievements, and also
undaunted and brave in its battles for

ST. LOUIS, June 1.-THE committee on
resolutions met at the Linden hotel at 2:3O
pm. Some time was spent in comforting
together during which time there were
three groups, Foraker, Lodge and Teller
being the central figures respectively in
these clusters. Over half an hour was
spent in this general conference and in
unloading the resolutions that had been
referred to different members. Some of
the members had their pockets full of pa
pers. Even the
SILVER MEN WE'RE DIVIDED
on the phraseology of their plank, and
each silver member of the committee had
his own version.
1t was seen at the start that Lodge and
Foraker and others were cooperating to-
gether. Senator Lodge called the com
mittee to order and presented the name
OF Senator Foraker of Ohio, for
ed the name of Senator DUBOIS of
Idaho Then Charles E. Pryor, For

the states were called on the vote for

And the former was declared by SEN

The four votes cast for Dubois were
those of Messrs. Teller of Colorado, Hart

against such conspiracy for these rea-
sons:
.F1rst-That its purpose is to dis

'Second-That it is an insult to the

outrageous attacks of Governor Nor
