drawal Of the Illinois delegation after the
flourish of trumpets with which its arrival
was announced might prove disastrous
The Matthews boom seems TO have been
shattered by a row in the Indiana delega-
ton between the gold and silver delegates
over the question of retiring National
Committeeman Sheerin- 1t is evident
Matthews made, perhaps. a fatal blunder
in insisting that several of his personal
friends, who were for gold, should go on
the delegation. The Blackburn boom
does not seem to be progressing, but John
r Mclean is developing into a power in
the convention. Although his friends are
quietly urging him for the first place on
the ticket, it is well understood that his
aim is to secure the nomination for vice
president.
The managers of the Boies campaign
say they are much encouraged by reports
from their scouts and skirmishers who
have been canvassing incoming delega-
tons. They declare that Boies is the Sec
ond choice of two-,hirds Of the silver dele,
gates. On the other hand the Bland forces
held a caucus yesterday at which nearly all
the western votes were claimed for Bland
and Buck Hinrichsen spoke strongly
for the Missourian.

SO NOW IT Is BLAND OR BOIEs.
These Two Receive Large Acquisitions a
the Delegations Arrive.

These Two Receive Large Acquisitions
the Delegations Arrive.
The revolt against the 'cabal' uHques-
tionably has had the effect of fastening
declarations by arriving delegates in
favor of the two leading candidates
Bland and Boies-and both claim large
acquisitions. The boomers for both have
also begun arriving in force, and the head
quarters are besieged by marching clubs
headed by brass bands and countless
thousands of shouters who have followed
in their wake. 1t is a question whether
Bland or Boies has been the larger gamer
by the developments. The Iowa candi-
dates managers have received many as
surances of support from the south and
west, and although Bland is still hailed
and heralded as the logical candidate and
undoubtedly gaining ground, he has some
weak points in the present arrangement
of his lines.
An occurrence that gave Bland q big
boom was the action of the Illinois dele
CATION in officially announcing that thirty
| out of the forty-eight delegates had de-
clared their intention to vote for Bland.
| 1t was semi-ofiicially announced that
| thirty out of the forty-eight would give
support to John r. Mclean for the second
| place on the ticket. The announcement
caused connection at the headquarters
of various delegations. Its authenticity
was doubted for time and the legitimate
character of the declaration is now
questioned. 1t was based on a poll of the
delegation engineered by Hinrichsen,
after he had secured a statement from Alt.
| geld that the latter would abide by tho
| will of the majority.
Altgeld men now challenge the &C
curacy Of the poll and throw out an in
timation that sharp politics were resorted
to. One Of Altgelds purposes is TO secure
the adoption OF a plank in the platform
condemning federal interference in tn,
local affairs Of states. The doubt cast or
Altgeld's attitude furnishes cause fol
anxiety in the Bland camp. The with

TROUBLE OVER THE PLATFORM.
Gold Men Take Advantage of Disputes to

Gold Men Take Advantage of Disputes to
Secure a Compromise.
Considerable discord isdeyeloping among
the silver men over the rivalries naturally
created by candidates, and there is also
dissension over the platform Many of
the leaders strongly favor a single declara-
ton for free silver and the practical ig-
noring of all other questions. The tariff
question, especially, they desire to be
handled gingerly, lest il drive from them
the free silver Repu blicans who are mod
crate protectionists. Others, on the other
hand think there should be a regular
Democratic platform covering all the
pending issues of the day.
Some even favor a radical tariff plank
The gold men, led by Whitney, profess to
be encouraged by the outlook. Having
failed to make an impression on the solid
phalanxes of silver their purpose seems to
| be to stir up strife and take advantage of
| such discussions as may develop. The
great advantage which they possess is
