Louisville could CLEAN, they Informed
their readers Monday morning that,
owing TO the great dissatisfaction in
Democratic circles, and owing to the
great army OF gold Democrats who could
not conscientiously support a silver
ticket, the state was likely to 90 Repub-

cago convention, all their predictions
and false statements were doome d to come
to naught, and with sorrow in their

readers yesterday morning that Alabama
had gone for Democracy and free silver
by the increased majority of $4,000.

Claims Mckinley Will Have 53S Votes on
the First Ballot.
WASHINGTON, May Congressman
Grosvenor says that inasmuch as every
body who has sense enough to under
stand knows that the contest is over
and that no earthly power can prevent
the nomination of Mckinley on the first
ballot, it is hardly worth while to issue
any more bulletins. At the same time
he issues table showing that McKin-
ley now has 548 delegates. He candidly
admits, however, that he includes con-
tested seats, to total of 80, that he re-
CARDS as sure for Mckinley. There are
~ delegates yet to be selected, and of
these Mckinley will have so without
contest. Hence, excluding altogether
the contested seats, Mckinley will have
538 on the first ballot.
As to the claims that some delegates
may go back on their instructions, Mr.
Grosvenor says he has no knowledge
that there are any scoundrels elected as
delegates, nor has long contact with
vicious men in politics polluted his
mind to such an extent as to make him
believe that other men are willing to
demonstrate themselves as wilfully dis
honest
