After the business proper of the con-
vention was ended Ex-Governor BoieS
was presented and spoke briefly. He
said that in the part he had taken in the
present trouble he had been animated
by the sole desire to secure for the
masses in the State representation in
the convention. He believed before, as
he did now, that in many conventions
of political parties the voice of the peo-
pie had been stified, and so, far as he was
concerned he had been determined that
the Democracy of Iowa should speak for
itself. It had done so, and he hoped that
from this time on they would recognize
the fact that the strength of the party
rested in the masses.
There was an exodus of delegates
simultaneous with the Governors clos
ing words, and the report of the Com
mittee on Resolutions was listened to
with scant attention. 1t reads as fol-
lows:
THE Democracy of Iowa in State
Convention assembled hereby affirms its
allegiance to the time-honored Demo-
cratic doctrine of bimetalism to the use
of both gold and silver as primary
money and the coinage Of both at a
ratio without change or limit. It is the
Judgment of this convention that this
doctrine of the National Democratic
party, If fairly and honorably observed
requires the constant effort of every
loyal Democrat to accomplish the re-
peal Of all laws heretofore enacted
through the instrumentality of the Re-
publican party. which do In letter and
spirit alike discriminate against silver
and in favor of gold, and the substitu-
tion therefor of Affirmative legislation
which shall restore silver to equal rights
with gold in the Mints and coinage of
the country.
I'VE hereby affirm as a deliberate con-
viction of this convention that the Act
of 1878. in so far as it demonetized sill
yer and established gold as the unit of
value is a fagrant violation of one of
the most important provisions of the
Constitution of the United States; q
violation which every political party
ought to condemn and every good citi-
zen assist in expunging from the stat
utes of the republic.
I'VE therefore favor the immediate
repeal of all laws by which silver was
demonetiZed. and demand its unquali-
fled restoration to the right of free and
unlimited coinage in the Mints of the
Nation as money OF full legal tender

that the sound money advocates could
not be driven out of the party. and that
after the Chicago Convention the silver
advocates would be glad to get under
cover and come back to the fold. the
Mayor left the platform.
When the roll of counties was called
the minority report was defeated by a
vote of 6171a to 21615. This was a hun
dred votes short of the actual strength
OF the convention, but no attempt was
made to explain the discrepancy.
Against protests shouted from all
parts of the hall, a motion to indorse the
district delegates to Chicago elected in
the Congressional Conventions of the
forenoon, and which was intended to
bring them under the operation of the
unit rule, was declared carried
Then there was a rush for the open,
and in the midst of the confusion the
convention, at 6:10 p. m. adjourned

Declares for Free Silver in riost
Radical Terms, and Votes Down a
Resolution Commenting Cleve-
lands Administration.

DUBUQUE Oa), May 20.-Carrying
out the programme formulated yester-
day by the leaders of the majority ele-
ment, the Democratic State Convention
to-day declared for free silver in the
most radical terms; presented ex-GoV-
ernor Horace Boies to the Democracy
as a candidate for the Presidential NOM
nation and instructed the delegates at
large and the district delegates, three
of the latter being adherents of the
sound money doctrine, to vote as a unit.
1t was the most turbulent convention
in the history of the party in this State.
Despite the impartiality and fairness
of the presiding officer selected by the
silveriteS, the representative of that
element on the floor Were disposed TO
give little quarter to their opponents,
and there We're times when it looked
as though the convention would break
UP in disorder.
The majority report Of the Committee
on Resolutions was barren of any ref
erence TO President Cleveland or his Ad-
miniStration, while the commendation
of the Chief Executive attached to the
minority report was voted down by
nearly three to one. In a measure, how
ever, this may be taken as due to the
fact that 1t was appended to sound
money resolution, for it was noticea BILE
that the caustic comments upon the Ad-
ministration made by Permanent Chair
man Carr evoked but a scant applause
from the silver men, while his declara-
tions that the financial policy of the Ad-
ministration was not that of the Dem
oeratic party, and that that party had
been betrayed by its chosen leaders
Were received with chilling silence.
Ex-Governor Boies heads the delega-
tion to Chicago, and his associates are
Sam B. Evans, William A. Wells and
Lewis I. Genung.
There was a general demand for Gov
sTrfor- Boies, and a committee was APP
pointed to secure his presence in the
earlier part of the session. Then the
convention proceeded to the election of
delegates at large, and Ex-Governor
Boies was selected by acclamation,
while the election of the other members
of the delegation was fought by the gold
men.

CHIuA'S SECOND LOAN.
DETAILS OF NEGOTIATIONS AT
PEkIN
Show That in the End England and
Germany Were United Against
France and Russia.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 20.-The fol-
lowing correspondence of the United
Press, under date Of Toxic, Japan, May
9th, was received per steamship Belgic,
which arrived from the Orient to-day:
The details of the negotiation carried
on in Pekin for China's second loan of
100, 100000 taels show that in the end
England and Germany were united
against France and Russia. The loan
had been promised to England by the
Chinese Government, but the terms Of
fered by the Hongkong and Shanghai
Bank ON behalf of itself, the Deutsche-
Asiatiche Bank and a London syndicate
headed by the RothscBilds, were neither
liberal nor firm-a 5 per cent. loan at d
minimum price of S91a, the bank to re-
ceive per cent. commission and the
Chinese to reap the full benefit of any
subscription over and above 1912 See

and Japan had been at 90, the Chinese
thought this Anglo-German offer too
dear. But the bank would make no re-
duction

troll of the customs, the revenues from

loan, should be placed in French hands,
and that the work Of building railways

should be intrusted to France.
At the eleventh hour Sir Robert Hart,
Inspector-General of Customs, was
called in. He induced the bank to make
a firm offer of a 5 per cent loan at "a,

SOUTH CAROLINA DEMOCRATS
White MetaIIists Win Out in the
State Convention.

COLUMBIA IS. CO, May 20.--The ad
vCcates of the white metal within the
ranks of the Democracy of South Car
olina won out in the State Convention
to-day, and the delegates elected TO
the Chicago Convention will work and
vote in favor of the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at the ratio of Is to l.
The convention was called to order at
noon in the State Capitol by Senator
Irby, Chairman of the State Central
Committee. l. II. McCalla was elected
Temporary Chairman, and A. H. Pat
terson was made the permanent pre-
siding officer Patterson's speech was
in favor of free silver.
The usual committees were appointed
and a recess was had until until s
O'Clock.
Upon reassembling the Committee on
Resolutions reported. The platform fa-
vors free silver at 16 to 1, and calls on
the President to carry out the action of
Congress on the Cuban question.
The following delegates Large to
the Chicago Convention were then
elected: Senator Tillman, Governor
Evans, w. II. Ellerbee and J. b. Brad
ham.
Senator Tillman and Governor Evans
beth made speeches, the former de-
nCuncing the President and Northern
Democrats, and the latter advocating
Tillman's candidacy for the Presi-
dency.
Senator Irby, speaking in the ca
pacity of the Chairman of the Democ-
racy of the State, warned the reform
faction against bolting, and predicted
ruin to the party in the State, and not
only to white supremacy, but white civ
ilization, as the breach would be made
a permanent one. He said that the
whole trouble was that the party was
good enough to elect Tfllman Governor
twice and to the Senate, but was not
good enough to elect him President.
Senator Tillman was bitter in his re-
ply, and ascribed Irby's attack on him
to his Qrbys) fear for his reelection
To this Irby, who was seated a short
distance away, gave the lie direct.
Tillman's answer was lost in the con-
fusion of cheers and counter-cheers
