stration broke forth and lasted half a
minute.
South Carolina with all its power
proceeded Mr.. Hill, could not drive
me out of the Democratic party He
came here on mission to unite, not to
divide to build up, and not TO destroy;
to plan for victory, not to plot for de-
feat. New York made no apologies to
South Carolina. The great Empire State
had stood for years as
The Gibraltar of Democracy.
Mr.. Hill said he deprecated attacks on
Democrats who believed in the free
coinage of silver at l6 to /. He had al
ways treated men of this opinion with
respect, and he would do the same
today. To him the question was one
on which men fairly differed.
He believed the best course for this
convention to pursue was to take the
first great step toward international
bimetallism. The United States could
not safely ignore the monetary system
of other great nations. And yet the
majority platform contained no word
favoring the desirable end. 1t con-
tanned no suggestion of what should be
done if parity could not be maintained
OH the experiment of IS to /. All was
risk and experiment. The fact cannot
be ignored of the great production CT
silver in this country. Could the
American people. even if inspired by
the spirit Of '16, make copper the equal
of gold? Could they shut their eyes to
the question of production of the
metals?
Il believe declared Mr.. Hill. that
the course for us to take. is to declare
for international Limetallisrl and stop
there"
Mr.. Hill then proceeded to review the
platform, and denounced the income
tax in sarcastic language.
A Plea for Integrity.
He concluded with Il pea for the i'll
tegrity Of the party. I'VE want to
build up the Democratic party he
said, mot tear it down. We love and
honor the principles of Jefferson and
Jackson who were for hard money. If
we are true to the old faith, on which
we stand, by the traditional policy of
the Democratic saints of the past we
can win if we put them aside we are
lost"

which many believed would be the last
day of the convention, the main citidel
was to be stormed. The champion
gladiators were to meet in the arena.
Nominating speeches were to be made
and the candidate selected. Ultra sill
yer cohorts, jubilant and confident,
were in control. The heroic minority,
doomed to defeat as certainly as that
brave band of Texans who fought and
fell to the last man at the Alamo, came
with their loins girded for the death
struggle.
Rebellion Hung Like . Pail
above the convention, and 70, 900 people
ranged the sloping hills that overlooked
the arena, to watch the battle of the
wrestling giants. The silver leaders
entered with light and buoyant step.
The faces of the gold leaders were grim
and grave. In some cases they were
defiant. The managers Of the several
candidates were marshalling their
forces. Bland got the first demonstra-
ton, and band at the head Of several
hundred of his boomers, circled the
galleries.
The band played succession of stir
ring airs as the clans and the crowds
gathered. A descriptive piece, 1.-THE
Worlds Fair created much amuse-
ment. The preliminary scenes were
largely a repetition of those Of the two
preceding days. There were one or
two rows at the entrances and several
of the spectators who were making
themselves obnoxious were elected.
Were Numerous Rumors.
Before the convention was called to
order, rumors of men who had bolted
and others who would bolt, were flying
about. 1t was known that Mr.. Cleve-
lands ex-postmaster general, Wilson
8. Bissell of Buffalo, had gone home.
1t is also said that Perry Belmont and
the administration spokesman on the
floor Of the last congress, General
Tracey of Albany, would quietly re.
linquish their seats to alternates.
Delaney Nicol of New York, McDer
mott of New Jersey, and several New
England delegates, were other rumored
boilers. Delegate Hamilton of Massa
chusetts said he did not think the Bay
State delegation would walk ont, but
that they would refuse to vote after the
platform was adopted.
The Convention at Work.
Senator White, the permanent chair
man, appeared on the stage at 10 40

could hardly speak above whisper

CHICAGO, July l0.-As the doors Of
the mammoth building in Jackson park
wero opened, on the third day of the
national Democratic convention, black
streams of people welled up through
the entrance and broke like cascade
over the galleries, the band struck up
"Massa's in the Cold, Cold ground. "
There had been enough fighting to sur
felt the cravings of the crowds, but
only the pickets were driven in, only
the outposts were captured. On this,
