ST. LOUIS, No. June 1e.-The Conven-
ton Hall promised to be very warm today
Every arrangement had been made to keep
the building as cool possible, but with the
boiling sun beating down with intensity
there was every prospect of a sweltering
time. The spectators and delegates pro-
ytded themselves with fans. which were
freely used.
The program today was to adopt the plat
form at the morning session, nominate the
candidates for President In the afternoon
and the Vice President III the evening, and
then there viii be final adjournment.
The day broke bright ard clear for the
third and probably last day of the conven-
ton.
Today there was an unohStructed path
to the vital work of the party chisftains.
The report of the committee on resolutions
and the nomination of candidates lay ii-
rectly ahead the Mckinley leaders had
arranged to push things through and
preparations had been made to adopt the
platform and nominate Mckinley before
taking a recess. There was much in the
program to appeal to the ina gina.io of
the advertised bolt of the silver men, and
the multitudes came with blcyant step to
enjoy the proceedings and yell themselves
hoarse when occasion demanded.

FLORIDA'S DELEGATES,
What the Defeat of Senator's Call and
PascO May F0reshudOw.


The election of three silver men and five
gold standard men by the Florida state
convention yesterday, as delegates to Chi
cago will occasion no surprise in either
faction of the party. Florida had prac-
tically been given over to the gold men by
their opponents up to the time of the Ken
lucky convention as was stated in inter-
views in The Star. After that convention
the silver men won OUT in a number of
counties, with the result that the conven-
ton yesterday was close between the
factions Congressman Sparkman is one
of the delegates-at-large. He is for gold
standard. but wants to peace in the
Democratic ranks. He has all along urged
conservative action in his state, just such
as characterized the convention, which
seems to have been dominated by him and
his friends.
The defeat of Senators Call and Pasco
for delegates-at-large is thought here TO
foreshadow the possible defeat of Senator
Call for reelection. If he could not control
the state convention, with the full power of
the silver movement behind him, doubts
are expressed whether he can secure re-
election without that full power behind
him. There are a number of persons who
want to get the Senator's place. Represen-
tativeS Sparkman and Cooper are among
the number, and Governor Mitchell is an
other aspirant.

ment at the fact that with the exception
of two companies of the 18th Infantry tn,
movements are confined TO two regiments.
1t is understood that the lack of funds is
the cause of the limited changes ordered.
the 22d Infantry has been directed to
change station with the Cd Infantry. The
former is now distributed among Fort

kota. and Fort Harrlson, Montana. In
stead OF taking up their station at Omaha

The I'd Infantry upon being relieved at
Omaha will be divided among the posts

they may be assigned by order of the COM

Before the hour for calling the convention
to order arrived the wilderness of seats in
the galleries was black with the same dense
crowd of people, and the vast hall roared
with the dull, Undesirable murmur of
thousands of human voices
ST. Louis, which has, until last night,
given the visitors magnificent convention
weather, had her stokers hard at work this
morning, and the heat in the Convention
Hall even before 10 o'clock became almost
unbearable, and the hall promised, as the
day advanced, to become like the torrid
room Of Turkish bath. The humidity in
the atmosphere made the sweltering heat
even more intolerable.
The delegates took their places this morn
ing without ostentation.
Comforting With Teller.
Senator Teller and his associates formed

minister's lips that he was praying
Then the first opportunity fer delegates
to use their voices fresh after a night s
rest was afforded when Chairman Thurs
ton, without any prelimnares, plunged
INTO business by announcing that the first
thing on the program was the report of
the committee on resolutions.
enator-e!ect Joseph b. Foraker of Ohio
crowded 20 the front and climbed the steps
to the stage, While the crowds sent up a
shr!ll YELL The platform, which he be
gan to read was with a few imma terial
amendments in its verbiage the one tele-
graphed throughout the country by the
Associated Press Tuesday night.
Senator Foraker adjusted a pair of spec
tacles upon his sodierly face and furnish
ed for moment the same dumb show of
a man talking which the colored minister
had given, until cries of Louder and
Order" from the galleries impelled him
to a stronger vocal effort. There was no
opportunity in reading the platform for
the strenuous fiery oratory with which
the Ohio man has often stirred the con-
ventions of the past He wore short
black alpaca jacket, and a black string
tie, and was much less fashionable look
ing man than the delegates from New
York and Massachusetts, who sat below
him.
The Platform.
The platform was as follows:

sembled by their representatives in ma
tional convention. appealing for the popu-
lar and historical justification of their
claims to the matchless achievements of
the thirty years OF republican rule, earn
estly and confidently address themselves

and conscience Of their courtrymen in the
following declaration of facts and princi-
