Republicans Trying to Devise a
Drag-Net Platform.
AND CATCH EVERYBODY
Satisfactory to Both Gold Men
and Friends of Silver.
HANNA THINKS HE HAS IT
A Resolution Declaring For Gold Until
Free Coinage is Arranged
For by international
Apreemant
Agreement.

ST. Louis, Mo, June 12.-llo is gen
orally believed tonight that the de-
claration in favor of the gold standard
in the Republican platform will be
very emphatic and unequivocal. When
the men from THE West reach here
they will find that the close friends of
Maj. Mckinley are ready to offer them
a financial plank that they can agree
upon without hesitancy.
Several drafts of a platform have
been prepared, and it is believed now
that a form has been secured which
will be satisfactory. 1T will declare
against the free coinage of silver un-
less it should be brought about by in
transitional agreement. No ratio is
mentioned, and in this respect it is
more acceptable TO the gold men. II
will also declare that the Republicans
are against the debasement of the cur
rency, and is therefore in favor of the
present gold standard.
The Republican party will be given
credit for having brought about the
resumption act which has also main
tanned every dollar on "a parity, whether
coin or paper, and that the standard of
money should be as it always has been,
and is now, equal to that of the most
enlightened nations of the world.
Those declarations embody the wish
es of the friends of Maj. Mckinley, and
the men who are now here approve
them.
If the resolutions should be changed
it viii be by the committee on resolu-
tions, or the convention itself. But
this is not likely because it contains all
that is asked for except by the most
extreme gold men who want a straight
single gold standard declaration and
nothing more. There is some opposi-
tion to the reference to an information
al agreement, but those who desire
that language inserted in the resolu-
ton say that the party should not
place itself in opposition TO the coinage
of silver under an international agree
ment if such an agreement could be
made, but the party is not to be
pledged to bring about such am agree
ment which is "a contention of some of
the delegates.
1t is believed by those who have ex-
amined bhe proposed financial resolu-
ton that lit will meet every demand
that can be made by the Eastern men,
and that it will be incorporated into
the platform when adopted.

TELLER WILL FIGHT FOR SILVER
Dubois Thinks Majoritf of RepubIi-
cans Believe i'm Free.Coinage.

Washington, June 12.-Senator
Dubois, of idaho, who is Senator
Teller's chief lieutenant in the fight
for free silver, will leave tomorrow
for st. Louis where he will join the
Colorado Senator and the other Repub-
lican silver men.
''We will make the fight for silver"
said Senator Dubois tonight, ''in the
committee ON Resolutions and on the
floor of the convention. We believe
that majority Of the Republicans
of the country believe in the coinage
of silver ON the same terms with gold
and that that should have been the in
depreciation of the platform adopted
at Minneapolis in 1892. If we fail, we
shall go down with our colors flying"
"Would a compromise be accepted
by you?" he was asked.
1.-The time for compromises is past"
replied Mr.. Dubois, "there can be no
compromise of the issue. 1t is plain
and clear"
I'm 1.-THE event the convention adopts
platform unsatisfactory to you and
the other silver Republicans, what will
be your course?"
''What we will do if the platform
does not declare for silver" responded
Mr.. Dubois, sis matter for the future
to determine. We will battle for our
convictions to the bitter end. IF the
majority is against ps we will accept
as our best Judgment dictates"

Immediately upon the adjournment Of
Congress, but for the fact that his at
tention is claimed by some matters of
public business that cannot be pro-
perly delayed, for instance the filling
of the vacancies caused by the failure
of the Senate to confirm certain nOmi-
nations. Generally it is supposed he
will recommission the persons so cir
cumstaGCed.
The Senate on its adjournment left
unconfirmed the nominations of thir-
teen postmastcrs, two District Attor-
neys, and a collector of internal reve-
nue.. The nominations were: John c.

They have not been announced, but
among them is the Arizona bond bill
and the bill providing for the punish
ment of persons selling liquors under
unauthorized names.
The capitol was especially deserted
to-day. The members and Senators who
remained to attend the final sessions of
the two Houses Yesterday left by scores
on the outgoing trains last night, most
of the Republicans heading for st.
Louis and the Democrats returning to
their homes. There were less than
half dozen Congressman at the capitol

QUAY OUT OF THE RACE.
Thinks Mckinley Should be Nominated
by Acclamation.

st. Louis, Mo, IA most import
ant conference was held in Senator
Quay's rooms tonight, at which Sena-
tor Quay himself, Hon. Mark Hanna,
Mr.. Hahn, National committeeman
from Ohio; Hobart, of n. j.; Hon
Samuel Fessenden, of Conn; and w. A.
Andrews, of Penn, were present, and
at which it was practically arranged
that Mr.. Quay should retire from the
contest for the Presidency. He said
that the contests which were now un-
der consideration before the National
committee were of little consequence
because it was evident that Mr.. Nc
Kinley already had over 500 uncon-
tested votes, making it evident that
the people demanded his nomination.
He aequiesced in the suggestion that
Mckinley should be nominated by ac-
clamation, and said that sooner the
convent tion performed ITS work and ad-
journed the better it would be.

PLATT THREATENS, TO BOLT.
Will Not Stay in Convention if His Men
are Unseated.

st. Louis June 12.-To-day there
was in circulation reports that Thomas
I. Platt has declared his intention of
bolting or walking out of the con-
yention If the six contestants from
New York should be seated. 1t is
learned from members of the National
committee that in all probability the 6
Platt men will be thrown out and the
other men placed on the temporary
roll.
The report of what Platt had said
was reported to Mr.. Hanna to-day and
he declined to discuss the matter in
any way.
II shall not get excited over this,
even if Mr.. Platt said it," Mr.. Hanna
remarked, ,and when said il" Mr.. Hanna
had made the remark, he was not
disturbed.
One of Mr.. Platt's friends
stated emphatically that the
position of Mr.. Platt was that
in case six regularly elected dele
gates in New York should be unseat-
ed there would be sixty more delegates
who would walk out of the convention.
This view is controverted by some of
the delegates from New York on the
ground that there are from 25 to 80
delegates from New York who are ar
dent Mckinley men and cannot be ex-
pected to follow Platt in any such
move.
Members of the National committee
think talk of New York bolt is who'll
ly for the purpose of the influence it
may have in the decision of contests
yet to be decided.
To an Associated Press reporter to-
day Mr.. Platt said that he had not
spoken particularly of the New York
delegates which were contested, but
upon the whole proceeding in the COM
mittee ''They are riding rough-shod
over everything" he said. "The ques-
ton Of mans title to seat is not
considered on it's merits, but as to
his position on Presidential candi-
dates"
Mr. Hahn, the member of the com
mittee from Ohio, has declared that
the only question involved in these
contests is whether or not the man is
for Mckinley, and that line of policy
is what New York objects to-"
When asked what he had to say
about Mr.. Manley's manifesto, he said
he did not think it had made any APP
preciable difference in the situation.
He was very sorry that Mr.. Marley
had made the statement and was at
a loss to explain it except that the
Maine committeeman must have be-
come -demoralized when there was no
necessity for it. Mr.. Platt has received
a dispatch from Mr.. Reed, who says
that Mr. Manley's utterance was wholly
and expressed his aston
ishment that Manley had taken such a
course.

OPPOSING CANDIDATES CONFER
They Will Demand an Unequivocal De-
cIaration For Gold.

st. Louis, June 12.-The movements
of the men who are opposed to McKin-
ley have been very quiet, but it is un-
derstood that since the arrival of Mr..
Quay to-day there has been a confer
ence of men representing the differ
ent candidates, those present being
Platt for Mr.. Morton; Quay for him
self; Henderson for Mr.. Allison, and
an eastern men representing Mr.. Reed.
1t was understood that the conference
was not with airy hope of defeating
the nomination of Mckinley, because
Mr.. Quay and Mr.. Manley have already
conceded the nomination of the Ohio
man, but on the money ques-
ton which was to be insist
ed upon at all hazards and
to give it to the Mckinley men as one
of the demands of the opposition. 1t
was understood that the declaration
was to be unequivocally for gold.

from the Fifth Kentucky district. Mr..
NerkeS. committeeman from Kentucky
favored the motion, basing his argu-
ment upon the ground that its 2dop
ton would promote the interests of the
party in that State The motion was
opposed ny Gen, Clayton and others
on the ground that its adoption would
constitute a bad precedent and open
the doors for similar proceedings in
EaI4y either cases. The motion was
ror pressed and no vote was taken.
The committee then took a recess
until $50 p. IN.
The Delaware contest was taken up.
There are six delegates-at-large from
this State and no district delegates,
the entire State being embraced in
one Congressional district One of the
delegations claiming to be the regular
is headed by ex-senator Anthony IIig-
gins, and the other by Hon. j. Edward
Addicks. The contest has aroused
much interest on account of the promi-
nence of the leaders and the sharp con
test which has waged between them
for years, as well as because of the
events of the campaign which has re-
suited in the present contest.
The time for the presentation of this
case was increased to twenty minutes
for each side. Mr.. Higgins presented
the main argument ON behalf of his
delegation, maintaining the regularity
| of the proceedings in the ease of that
delegation and the irregularity of the
other convention. He asserted that
of the one hundred delegates in Mr..
Addicks' convention twenty three were
| chosen by irregular and dshonorable
means. They were from the city of
Wilmington, and having been elected
| through bribery he contended that
| they were not fit representatives of
| the people of that city "as between
| the Republicans, continued Mr.. Hig-
gins, this might not be proper mat
ter for discussion. but j. Edward Ad-
| dicks is no Republican; he is a poIiti-
cal bandit and has no place here nor
| IN any other decent political society," .
AS proof of this assertion, he charg-
| ed Addicks with defeating the election
| OF United States Senator-a contest
| which he had prosecuted into the
Senate itself by conspiring with Demo
| Gratis and Populists in that body.
| DR.. c. X. Layton spoke for Mr.. Ad-
| dicks, depreciating the washing of
dirty linen" before the committee.
| He asserted that the State had been
| hopelessly Democratic until 1889, when
Mr.. Addicks came to the rescue bv
furnishing the financial means for de-
| feating the Democrats.
At the conclusion of the hearing
the committee decided to seat neither
| OF the contesting delegations.

POLITICS IN WILKES COUNTY.
Republicans of the Eighth District vii
Re-nominate Linney.

Wilkesboro, n. c., June 12.-(Spe-
cial. 1.-The Republicans of this county
are very much dissatisfied with Rus
sells nomination and a large number
are mad because Ruff Henderson was
placed on the ticket. 1t does seem
that they should be elated with the
success of their county man, but sew
eral leading Republicans declare they
will not support their candidate for
Auditor.
In this county at least nine-tenths
of the Republicans were for Dockery.
AT the primaries seventeen of the
twenty townships instructed for him.
The Eighth district Republican con-
yention meets here on the 8th of July,
and it is a foregone conclusion that
r. z. Linney will be nominated. 1t
looks now like "Ole York" will be his
opponent and in case he is the cam
paign will be hot and spicy. 1t is the
opinion of the best informed men in
the party that York would defeat
him by a good round majority. York
is an outspoken free silver man, and
there are many free silver RepuDli-
cans in the district who will support
him. The rank and file of the Popu-
lists, too, are disposed to favor York
as against Linney.
In regard to local matters the at
mosphere is decidedly warm--the
woods are full of candidates for the
different county offices, and the air is
full of rumors of independents. The
Democrats are quiet, seemingly dis
posed to let the Office seek the man
and content in fighting for free silver
and in the knowledge of the fact that
the outlook here is decidedly better
than it has been for quite a while.
