NATIONAL COMMITTEE.
Great Interest Manifested in the
Gathering-The Work Done.

ST. LOUIS, June 10.-The meeting of
the Republican national committee to
decide the contests for seats in the ma
tional convention absorbed the general
interest in the affairs pertaining to the
convention today. There were no i'm
portant arrivals except of members of
this committee and they were so con-
cerned with the proceedings of the
committee that they declined to give
attention to other questions.
The proceedings were of a harmoni-
Gus character, and while there was
evidence that there was genuine feel
ing in behalf Of the various candidates.
this feeling did not at any time take
ON a personally aggressive form.
The entire days session was given
up to the Alabama contests, which in
voived the seats of the four delegates
at large and all of the nine districts,
except the second. making twenty two
seats that were in dispute. The con-
tests were all decided except those
from the third and fifth districts. in
which hearings were postponed on ac-
count of the absence of either con-
testants or contestees. The points at
issue in the sixth and eighth districts
were settled outside of the committee
and the contests in both instances
withdrawn. The issue was presented
to the committee in all other cases.
OF the eighteen delegates whose
cases were decided, either by vote of
the committee or by withdrawal six
teen are for Mckinley and two for
Reed.
There was no division upon any of

vorites.
ST. LOUIS, June Ex-senator Thurs
ton, member of the national Republic
can. committee from Nebraska and
delegate to the convention, was among
the early arrivals today. He wore the
Mckinley and Hobart badge. 1T is
pretty we'll understood" said the sen
ator, that I am for Mckinley for the
first place. With his nomination, as
sured as it is, we want an eastern
man as his running mate, and l be-
lieve Hobart will be an available man.
We want TO keep New Jersey in the
Republican ranks now we have it
there Furthermore, Hobart is strong
in New York.
Thurston said he believed the In
diana declaration would form model
upon which many declarations would
be based. at is he said, brief and
explicit and skiltfu1iy avoids reference
by its terms to any of the mooted
questions. It is an unmistakable sound
money utterance. AT the same time it
avoids all mention of the gold stand
ard, reference to which, by name,
would drive the vote away from the
ticket in some states" The senator eX-
be satisfactory to all the western
states except Colorado, Utah, Nom
tana, Idaho and Nevada, and possibly
Wyoming, but he said, as they have,
all told, only 10 votes in the elector
al college, the party could afford to
lose them
RANNA CONFIDENT.
Marcos A Hanna and W. A. Hahn
of Ohio arrived today. Mckinley head
quarters at once became the busy por
ton Of Southern hotel. Hanna said the
expression received indicated that the
friends of Mckinley had not the least
overestimated his popularity. InfoT-
nation had been received from friends
of other candidates that little or no
contest would be made. Hahn said
the financial plank would be such as
every Republican could stand upon,
who wanted the national credit sus-
tanned
A careful analysis of the situation
seems to indicate that a, straddle on the
financial question will not be popular
A straddle to hold the silver states, the
leaders say, would lose New York, New
Jersey and Connecticut, in case a gold
Democrat be put in the field. The
silver men claim that no straddle the
Republicans could adopt would hold
Colorado and such states against a
combine of Democrats and Republi-
cans on a free silver platform. Figur-
ing on the basis Of the electoral college
it is declared that a logical and candid
way will be to condemn free coinage
and declare in unmistakable terms for
a gold standard.

rush for the stairway. Those on the
third floor made their way down to the
first, but here they were stopped by
employees from the first floor who were
afraid to run down the lower stairway
which was beginning to burn quite
hriskly.
Thirty-five men and women stood
panic-stricken on the stairway while
the flames assembled rapidly Just as a
sheet of fame began licking at the feet
of the foremost of those on the stair
way, one Of them darted swiftly down
the burning structure and escaped
without scratch. Those behind him
followed in quick succession until all
but about three of the employees had
escaped without serious injury These
remained on the third floor until the
fire department arrived and then they
made their way down a ladder which
was hoisted to a rear window.
