SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. ia spe-
cial to the Herald" from Boise, Idaho,
says: The Democratic and Populist
conventions made but little headway to-
day. The Populists appointed a con-
ference committee to meet with the fu-
sion committee appointed the day before
by the Democrats. The news Of the ap-
rointment of the POpulists' committee
caused a big demonstration in the Dem
ocratic convention. The committees or
ganized separately and then met toge-
ther. They have been in session all the
afternoon and viii probably remain to-
gether all night.
1t is reported tonight that the COM
mittees will report to their respective
conventions recommending that the
Democrats be given the Governor, Su-
preme Court Justice, Attorney General,
State Treasurer and Mine Inspector and
the Populists Congressman and all the
remaining State officers. 1t was also
reported that the Populists were to get
the Senator, but this is denied by the
Democrats. The SenatOrship will likely
prove the bone of contention. The Popu7
lists are insisting on it, and the middle
of the road Democrats and Populists are
urging it in the hope of breaking the
back of the fusion.
1t is understood that the majority of
the Democrats are willing to agree to
support the Populist nominee at the
next Legislature but will not submit to
the Populists nominating Senator at
this time.
The Silver Republicans to-day left the
Democrats and devoted their entire at
tentiOn to the Populists. They are en-
deavoring by this means to prevent fu-
sion of the Democrats and Populists,
hoping to then be able to make terms
with one or both of those parties. In
the Populist convention to-day an effort
was made to secure a place in the order
Of business for the nomination of a
United States Senator but it was de-
feated.
The Populists to-day made Hon. j. w.
Rallantine Permanent Chairman. The
Committee on Resolutions agreed to re-
port a strong woman suffrage plank.

COLORADO DEMOCRATS.
Programme for Fusion Gives Them
Trouble.

PUEBLO (Col), Aug. 19.-The Dem
ocratic State Convention convened at
o'clock to-day with NJ. B. Gerry of Lap
lat County in the chair. No contests
appearing, the temporary organization
was made permanent. Washouts west
DELAYED the arrival of many delegates
and the progress of the convention was
slow.
owing to a concert in the evening un-
der the auspices of the Trades Assem-
bly, of Pueblo for the purpose Of fais7
ing a fund to send speakers into the
East to present free coinage argu-
ments before the labor organizations,
the convention took a recess until 10
%. m. at which time Committees On
Resolutions and Order of Business will
report. The delegates have arrived at
no definite plan for making overtures
Of fusion with Silverites of other par
ties whose conventions meet next
month, and they cannot agree upon a
plan in caucus. They are willing to
agree to indorse Senator Teller and
Congressmen Bell and Shafroth for re-
election, but on all other points great
diversity of views are eXtant. Whether
by a committee with delegated power or
by an adjournment of the convention to
meet again, the fusion ticket is to be
prepared, only a vote in the conVen-
ton can determine.
The situation of the convention is
made more perpleXing by reason of nu-
merous Gubernatorial candidates in the
field, whose respective friends are
working to save them in the fusion
compromise. The two committees will
jointly report indorsing Teller, Bell and
Shafroth and suggesting the selection
of four Presidential Electors. Then a
committee of seven is to be named with
fun power to act Jointly with other par
ties in other conventions to effect union
of Silverites upon fusion State ticket.
Before this convention adjourns how
ever, a full State ticket is to be named,
from which the committee must select
all candidates given to the Democrats
upon such a fusion ticket

asked that the Pacific street wharf be
assigned to them. John D. Spreckels,
for the Oceanic Steamship Company,
which has rented the Paciflc-street
wharf while the Folsom-street wharf is
being repaired, interposed an objection
to this, however, on the ground that his
vessels would require both sides of the
wharf, and that they could not lie at
Lombard-street wharf, which was Of
fered to him, for any length of time
with safety.
The transportation companies and
commission merchants made a strong
plea for their request, saying that the
fruit from five counties was handled at
the Jackson-street wharf, and that
100000 people were supplied from it,
and so much fruit was piled on the
wharf that it rotted before teams could
set to it to move it.
McDonough & Runyon stated that
there was such an amount of fruit on
the pier that it could not be taken
away because the teams could not get
to it to handle it. The entire use of the
wharf was needed in which to handle
the fruit.
President Colnon said some concessions
must be made by the board to SO great
an interest and the exclusive use of the
Jackson street wharf was granted the
fruit men for the present, and when the
Folsom-street wharf is rebuilt, Spreck-
els will move his steamers over there,
and the Pacific-street wharf, which was
built for the fruit trade, will be used
for that purpose.

DEADLOCK STILL ON.
Proceedings Yesterday EnIivened by
a Fight.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 19.-Three more
sessions of the Democratic Congression-
al Convention to-day ending this even
ing with the 124th ballot and no choice,
the vote remaining the same as on yes
terday and Monday, 36 to 80.
The situation was enlivened this
afternoon by a proposition from the
Rose men headed by John W. Mitchell,
who made a neat speech in behalf of
ending this boys play and getting to-
gether like men and selecting a candi-
date who can defeat McLachlan," but
the Patton delegates, led by Senator
White. declined the proffered olive
branch and balloting was resumed.
After the close of the evening session
fight took place IN the hall between w.
I. Burke, d Patton delegate, and COun-
Gilman Tom Savage, a Rose delegate.
Savage it seems was casting the vote
of a neighboring county on the call of
the roll on motion to take a recess un-
til 10 o'clock tomorrow morning which
had prevailed. The lie was passed over
this matter when Burke struck Savage
in the face. This precipitated a tre-
mendous uproar and a free fight seemed
imminent. Senator White mounted a
chair and shouted for order saying:
This is outrageous and shamefully dis
graceful. If you want to fight leave the
hall, everyone Of YOU
