ters to this city, have decided to ask
he Republican Committee on Resolu-
tons for an arbitrary Plank in the plat
form. The following resolutions were
forwarded to ST. Louis Tonight
More than 100000 railway employees
in the United States, a majority of
whom are members of organized bodies,
representing their different conditions,
demand that a plank be inserted in the
Platform of the Republican party in
dorsing national arbitration of differ
ences that may arise between employees
and employers, engaged in interstate
commerce.
"We believe the public desire it. We
are sure that railroad employees want it
and we know of no one who opposes it
I'VE deplore strikes and strife and
urge that all means possible be employed
to bring about an amicable settlement
OF disputes by arbitration. We believe
the bill now pending in the national
House of Representatives known as the
Erdman arbitration, is a long stride in
this direction, and we ask the support
of the convention in having this meas

Vice-Presdent of the convention. The
delegation did not choose it's National
Committeeman, preferring to await the
action of the convention on contests.
Webster Flanagan will fight for plank
in the platform of gold and silver pure
and simple, and declares his eternal
animosity to the free coinage of silver.
QUAY REELECTED.
The Pennsylvania delegation met in
their headquarters this afternoon.
Senator Quay called the meeting to
order, and nominated Governor Hast
ings for Chairman. He was elected
without opposition. w. w. Greist and
J. N Dreisbach were elected Secre-
taries. H. H. Bingham was named for
the Committee on Rules, w. H. An
drews for that on Credentials, Charles
II. Mullin for Permanent Organization
and Smedley Darlington for that on
Credentials. NJ. S. Quay was re-elec-
ted National Committeeman unani-
mously.
The following resolution on finance
was adopted and will be presented to
the Committee on Resolutions:
1--WE favor the maintenance of the
existing gold standard, and are op-
posed to the free coinage of silver ex-
cept by an international agreement for
bimetallism with the leading CONNER
cial nations of the world
Resolutions favoring the largest ap-
propriations for the improvement of

THE VICE-pRESIDENCY.
Names Prominently Mentioned for
MCkinley's Second.

ST. LOUIS, June 15.-It is generally
admitted that the large number OF
Vice-Presidential candidates will ne
cessitate an adjournment after the
nomination of the Presidential candi-
date and consequent delay in the work
OF the convention. The New York del
eEation have given up hopes of secur-
ing a favorable answer from Governor
Morton, but will urge him, if Mex inley
is nominated, to accept. Morton. how
ever, is busy with the name of J. Sloat
Fassett of New York, and his name is
favorably received by the Western
delegates.
The boom for Garrett A Hobart is
being pushed with great vigor, and he
will undoubtedly prove formidable
antagonist to many of the other men
mentioned. The Maine people have two
candidates, leaving out of considera-
ton the movement in Dingley's favor.
Senator Frye and Governor Clews had
open support this morning in friendly
rivalry.
The Mckinley people busted them
selves to-day with the names of two
Fasteners, Chauncey M. Depew and
Warner Miller. Depew would be ac-
ceptable to both the New York fac
tions, but Miller would not. 1t is the
general view that the Vice Presidential
nomination shall go to the East.
The record-union., 1896-06-16

A. Sutherland on Credentials, John T.
Mott as Vice-Presidept in the conven-
ton, William L. Proctor on Permanent
Organization, and John Raines on the
Committee on Rules.
Quigg moved that the committee use
it's influence for plank calling for
good roads, which Depew regarded as
an appropriate suggestion, coming as
it did from the champion bicyclist of the
delegation. Adjourned sine die.

COUNCIL OF THE A. p. AIS.
Dissent at the Action of the National
Committee.

ST. LOUIS, June ia mass meet
ing of six councils of the A. Z. A. was
held tonight in a hall in North ST.
Louis. Among the speakers were Con-
gresham Linton, State President Ste
vens and Mayor Webster Davis of
Kansas City.
The object of the meeting was to ex-
press dissent at the action of the Ma
tional Committee in supporting Kerens
as against Filley in the contest for
seats in the convention. All the
speeches We're wildly vehement against
the Republican Committee.
The probability of McKinley's NOM
ination was touched upon. Mayor Da-
Wis said the General Conference of the
4 p. A. at Washington had been faint
hearted. Mckinley was an enemy of
the A. p. A, and if his vote would elect
the Ohio man it would not be cast.
Congressman Linton spoke more guard
edly.
A rising vote on a resolution to con-
denim the action of the committee for
seating the Kerens delegation was de-
clared carried, and the meeting ad-
journed.

MANLEY TO BE FORGIVEN.
Maine Delegates VIII Not Resent the
Action of Their Committeeman.

ST. LOUIS. June 15.-The feeling of
resentment against Joseph H. Manley
which was intense among the Maine
delegation when they arrived yester-
day, has perceptibly decreased.
Mr. Manley met the issue with char
acteristic frankness. He told his Maine
1T was not crime" he said, sit was a
blunder." He then explained the spirit
in which his published statement that
Mr.. Mckinley was likely to be norni-
mated was written After its publica-
ton he saw how easily it could be mis-
interpreted, but it was then too late to
correct the error.
The leading members of the delega-
tion discussed the matter informally
after their conference with Mr. Man
ley and his explanation of the incident
was fully accepted by them. To-day
few, if any, of the delegation will admit
that Manley was influenced by i'm
proper motives, although there are not
wanting those who feel that in some
way Manley should be disciplined
These, however are in the minority
The majority believe that Manley has
been sufficiently punished, and they
are not disposed to degrade him in the
eyes of his friends by asking his with
drawal from the National Committee.
for which place he was informally
agreed upon a fortnight ago.
The indications are that the incl
dent will be passed over without ac-
ton or further comment
WANT REED FOR VICE-PRES
IDENT.

Association gave out the following to-

dent. The petition was sent to Mr.

was sent as one of the delegates at
