IOWA DELEGATION DIVIDED.
Seven Vote for Hill and Uncle Horace
is Bitter.

Chicago, July $50 say that the
Boies boomers are merely angry at the
action of seven members of the Iowa
delegation yesterday is drawing it very
mild The seven who had their votes
recorded for Hill were disciplined last
night by the remaining members of the
delegation. It is said that four of the
seven are gold men, the other three be-
ing straight 16 to l.
Some Of the men who voted for Hill
acknowledged that it was a mistake
and are very sorry that the break was
made. The scouts and skirmishers who
came in from the various delegations
since the convention adjourned report
ed that the action of the seven men
was a stab under the fifth rib for Boies.
They say that in some delegations
they heard it asserted that the break in
Iowa was disastrous to Boies and that
lit is all up with Uncle Horace
Notwithstanding the fact that the
entire twenty-siX votes were cast with
the silver majority, the Iowa men feel
that the effect is very disastrous, and
say that hereafter with a silver chair
man, a poll of the delegation would not
be allowed.
It is said by the Boies men that the
action of the Iowa delegates who in
sisted upon q poll Of the delegation and
voted against q silver chairman was
violation Of an agreement and that
they might as we'll have voted directly
against BOieS.
Your own men are not for him.
said one of the leaders of the Kansas
delegation. when visited by a scout in
the interest of Boies, land how do you
expect US to be for him or support a
man who loses seven out of twenty-six
votes in the state?'
The Boies men ara particularly angry
because Iowa was the first state that
made kick and insisted that the dele
cation should be pOlled- The man
ayers of the Boies boom do not believe
the effect will be as bad as the s1ir-
mishers report, because it is known
that four of the delegates are gold men
and that it was personal compliment
to Senator Hill that brought over three
others.

JERRY WANTS TELLER.
The Populist Ez-Congressman Tells
Why the Colorado Man Should
be Named

Chicago, July S-Jerry Simpson, the
redOubtable jerry of Kansas, was in
the Palmer last night and looked at
the pictures OF Boies and Blackburn
and Bland until his eyes ached. He
said frankly he wanted to feast MS
vision on the features of Henry NJ.
lows:
Why. there is only one way to beat
Mckinley, and that is by the Demo-
Gratis nominating Teller On him the
Populists, free silver Republicans and
all opposition to the gold standard can
unite We cannot unite on Bland or
Bo1eS, or any straight Democrat, be-
cause by so doing we make a conces-
sion to the Democratic party, and to
certain extent lose our identity as a
party, particularly in the southern
states, where we are strong. I refer
to Georgia, Ala bama and Texas.
"On Teller we would meet the Demo-
Gratis half way, and neither would sur
render any party rights. We would
simply effect fusion to defeat and
crush out the plutOcrats for all time.
The POpulists and silver party meet in
St. Louis on July % to nominate a ma
tional ticket and enunciate a platform.
would be Endorsed there. No other
man nominated by this convention will
be.
with Mckinley on one side and
Teller, Endorsed by Democrats, free sill
yer men and POpulists, it would be all
day with the major. With three candi-
dates in the field the major would win,
the POpulist and silverite would be sec
ond and the Democrat would be last.
In other words, Teller would get more
votes than any Democrat.
Personally, I would support Bland,
Boies, or any good free silver Demo-
crat. am simply speaking as to what
the Populists as party would do
Ex-COngressman Lafe Pence, now of
New York but formerly OF Colorado, is
here working for Senator Teller in be-
half Of the POpuliSts. Mr. Pence is &C
credited to the POpulst convention,
which will meet at St. Louis July %,
as delegate from New York THE
POpuhsts will indorse Teller or Sibley
if nominated by the Democratic con-
ventiOn," said Mr.. Pence. I'VE would
also probably indorse Bryan or Bland,
after a fashion, but there would be
fight to secure that end. All this talk
about Stevenson and others being ac-
ceptable to the POpulists is foolish. We
would accept only a straight-out silver
man who has not the brush of the gold
camp still clinging to him.

TO INVADE THE WEST.
Marc Hanna Will Carry the War in
Silver's Stronghold.

Canton, O.. July s.-Not the least i'm
portant of the grave questions that
have been discussed here by the many
prominent men who have visited Major
Mckinley during the last two weeks
is the fight that is to be made in the
west. There is nothing hating or back
ward in the political methods of Mare
Hanna, and he proposes to make the
most vigorous political campaign of his
life in the western and southern states.
Now that it has been pretty genera
ally conceded that the headquarters of
the executive committee Is to remain in
New York, sub-headquarters win be
established in several western cities.
Denver, which is the very center of the
free silver revolt, has been most prom
inently mentioned as the seat of one
of those sub-headquarters It is urged
that a most energetic campaign of ed
UcatiOn could be carried on from Den
yer. Campaign literature could best be
circulated from that point to localities
where it would do the most good.

of ''Trottv,' q pet name given to her
by her father when she was baby and
which has been applied to her ever since.
''Trotty'' was fairly idolized by her
father, and she was deeply interested in
his literary work. One Of his most sue
cessful books bears the following dedi-
cation: ITO my severest critic, my most
loyal admircr and my only daughter,
Mary French Field. -
Miss Field has prepared for her work
by q years study under the instruction
of a prominent DeIsartean teacher. She
has been carefully educated, too, having
studied in Germany. She will go out
under the management of George Fl.
Yenowine, who was the manager for
many years of her fathers tours as well
as his intimate friend. Scores of en-
gagements have already been offered
and her success is confidently expected
Her DEBUT viii probably be made in
Cincinnati.
Miss Field will give readings from
her fathers works exclusively, and her
repertory viii include both poetry and
prose. She has frequently entertained
the members of her family and friends
by reciting these selections, which she is
said to give with a good deal of sym
pathy and delicate appreciation. Her
object is to add to the family income,
for while Mr.. Field left fine home a
magnificent library and almost a for
tune in ourios ne had accumulated no
large amount Of money, and the Field
family has been dependent upon the
royalties from several books which bring
in a steady bat hardly sufficient in
come. Miss Field, with praiseworthy
pluck, has determined to make her own
way in the world.

INDIANS IN MIMIC WAR.
Strange Spectacle at Pine Ridge, Re d
Clouds Home.

Pine Ridge Agency, s. D., July s.
Not since 1898 has there been witnessed
such stirring scenes as were enacted
here at the sun dance. For week past
the tribes have been gathering to par
ticipate in the sun dance, which was,
fortunately or unfortunately, interdict-
ed by Major Clapp. Over 5000 BruIes,
Ogallalas and Cheyennes, with Red
Cloud in chief command, have made
the day memorable in the annals of
the Pine Ridge agency.
Under the command of Big Elk and
Standing Bear the Sioux were deployed
upon the broad plain for a sham battle.
There was a short interval of bantering
between Big Elk, stripped to the eagle
plume and a breech cIout, and Standing
Bear in a war bonnet reaching to his
heels and a big brass breastpin. Big
Elk shook his rifle in defiance, while
Standing Bear worked his braceleted
arms and long lance in the widest
manner. Then, simultaneously, each
sounded his respective war cry and
the two detachments came together in
savage combat. Many Indians We're
hurt in the clash.
