cratic Convention.
LEXINGTON, KY, June AT the
second days session of the Kentucky
state democratic convention harmony
seemed to be the watchword of both
factions There had been q feeling of
uneasiness on the part of the gold
men, who feared that the silver crowd
would in the intoxication of victory,
denounce Cleveland and Carlisle; but
the platform, while declaring for =
policy diametrically opposed to that Of
the present administrations, has not
one word of censure for the demo-
cratic standard bearer, the secretary
of the treasury.
It declares in emphatic terms for the
free coinage of silver at the ratio of 10
to 1, and opposes the issue of bonds in
time of peace and the national bank
ing system. On the tariff question it
declares that the government has no
constitutional right to collect tariff
duties for other than revenue pur-
poses.

COnsid6red.
CHICAGO. June 5.-A Washington
special says the feeling is growing
here among democrats that the nom
inati6n lies between Boies and Steven.
son.
It probably will depend ON tho atti.
tude of Illinois. Illinois has been
counted for Morrison heretofore. The
rank and file of the party are not op.
posed to Stevenson, but there is . fear
among some of the Illinois democratic
leaders, it is said. that he would not
recognize the political machine.
Throughout the south Stevenson is
immensely popular. This is especially
true in Kentucky, Florida, South Car
olina and Alabama.
Kentucky will probably take the
lead in the convention for vice-presi.
dent if she is given q complimentary
vote for blackburn. The objection to
Boies-in fact the only weak spot in
his candidature-is his comparatively
recent affiliation with the democratic
party. The southern democrats in
congress are afraid Of Boies In this re
gard. Stevenson would easily be the
nominee over Boies, it is said. ii his
own safe would only formally pre-.
sent his name. The indications are
that it will not, but will support Boies
instead.
1t is barely possible that southern
man may be nominated by the demo.
Gratis for vlce-president, but hardly
probable. The southern men them
selves seem to feel that the time has
not arrived when the democratic party
can safely venture to make a nomina-
tion south of the Mason and Dixon
line.
Senator Daniel will be the most pop
ular candidate for vice-president, but
as he is an ex-confederate he will be
prescribed as out. Senator blackburn,
whose name will be presented for the
presidency, is an ex-confederate, and
he. too expects nothing moro than q
compliment. In fact, all the names
mentioned in connection with the
presidential ticket, except. Tillman,
are ex-confederates.
Speaker Crisp is doubly disqualified
that s,constitutionally and politically.
He was born IN England, which will
prevent his becoming a president
under the constitution, and he served
in the confederate army, which is o
political disqualification, unwritten
but fully as binding in its effect.

Signs Of Rapid Recuperation-The WORK
Of the Relief Committees.
ST. LOUIS. June 3.-In our sister city
across the river reeuperation has be-
gun. While. an apathetic stupor en-
veloped hundreds of sufferers, the re-
action among those citizens upon whom
depends the city's progress has been
complete and effectual
Already the corporations which con-
troll the public transportation, COM
munication and lighting facilities have
accomplished almost half the neces.
Rry repairs of their plants; new roofs,
tsindows, doors and walls have been
placed on damaged structures; street
after street has been cleared of wreck
age; store after store has been re-
opened, and pile after pile of worth
less debris has been burned.
The marvellous work of the reliet
committees has commenced to show
Is salutary effects. Families who
had abandoned themselves to
desperation have been nerved
to effort; more than 1000 persons
have been saved from starvation,
clothed with necessary wearing ap.
parel, and fully ESQ shelterless persona
already suffering the ailments which
accrue from exposure, have been placed
under temporary roofs.
It is impossible to calculate the re-
suits obtained by the relief corps, but
its members announce that If they are
not afforded the means with which to
continue their work the consequences
will be almost as unfortunate as the
failure of their efforts would have
been.

Tho Relief Work.

The relief work has assumed NAM
moth proportions, and is now being
prosecuted on a systematic and thor
ough basis. 1t now extends to every
section of the affected district. Agents
of the charities-men and women-are
making thorough canvass of every
street. searching for destitute cases.
The relief fund is growing handsome.
ly, as are also the donations of cloth
ing and other supplies.
The merchants of st. Louis and the
people are liberal, almost to extrava.
gance. in furnishing supplies. Every
body seems to be doing something for
the cause. Churches, schools, all
charity institutions. professional men,
manufacturers, wholesalers and retail
ers, and nearly every private citizen
are sending in all sorts and quantities
of donations for distribution.
The death list seems to be growing
smaller, as corrected lists of the dead
are made Only one body was recov-
cred Monday. and this added to the
coroner's latest corrected and revised
list of fatalities, gives the total num-
her as 11S.
