REsENTING THE LOBBYISTS.

Chicago, July 2-Some of the silver
men manifest II disposition to resent the
announced intention of gold advocates
who are not delegates TO the convention
to come to Chicago with the avowed in
tention of influencing the course of pro-
ceedings. Voice was given TO this feeling
by Senator, elect Money, OF Mississippi,
who said:
'It is an unheard of proceeding for men
like Mr.. Whitney and Mr.. Eckels, who
have no credentials to national conven-
ton, to attend it with the view of infiu-
encing the action of delegates on Il ques
tion of principle. 1t is, of course, usual
for the friends of candidates to exert their
influence upon delegates, who believe as
they do; but for men TO come here as these
men do to change the views of delegates
who are instructed on a line of policy is
either II piece of arrogance or piece of
folly just as you choose to regard 1t. L
say to them that either one of these two
constructions is TO be put upon their con-
duct; they either propose to buy men out
| right or they want TO otherwise influence
| delegates to break faith with their consti-
| tuents. Either policy will he resented
| and predict that the gold advocates who
| come TO the convention without other eX
| cuse than that of eXerting their influence
| on duly elected delegates will meet with
II very cool reception. The convention
will be silver from core to cuticle and. the
| gold influence cannot be u.ed to change
| its character

Statements by Delegates to the Chicago
Convention.

Statements by Delegates to the Chicago
Convention.
The Maryland delegation to the Chicago
convention met at the Carro.iton shortly
after noon Monday TO affect final arrange
ments for their journey. A number OF
prominent Democrats, including Senator
German, Col. Victor Baughman, eN-Rep-
resentative Fred Talbot and others were
on hand and, prior to the meeting OF the
delegates the situation was thoroughly
discussed.
The steady growth of silver sentiment
since the State convention is a subject OF
general amazement and concern to the
sound money element and the expression
of a number of the delegates to-day indi-
Gates that when Maryland answers the
roll call of the convention surprising
detection from the gold ranks is more
than possible. Four of the delegates,
Messers Pattison and Lewis, of the First
district, and Claggett and Jones, of the
Fifth, are avowedly silver men, and the
indications point towards substantial
gain of others who are now on the fence.
Senator Crothers, of Cecil county, told
the Star correspondent that he was as
founded to see the strength of the free
silver element in his county. He said:
"Numbers of the Republicans are now
imbued with the silver sentiment, and
should not he in the least surprised TO see
a big detection from the ranks in the fall.
The county has been flooded with free
coinage literature, which the farmers read
and regard as Gospel; i'll fact, no state
ments are too eXtravagant to find some
believers, and had the silver men realized
their strength they could easily have
dominated they State convention"
Delegate Jones, of Calvert, said that
nine out of every ten voters in his county
were silver men, regardless of party afiil-
iations.
Delegate Clagett, of Prince George, is
an enthusiastic silver man, and looks for
triumphant Democratic victory on that
issue in the fall. There is some talk of
bringing Mr. Clagett forward rs a con
testant for the Democratic Congressional
nomination from the + fifth district.
The Maryland delegation, at its meet
ing to- day, elected Mr.. John +. Hurst as
chairman of the delegation. The dele
gates and the majority of the Maryland
ers who will attend the convention will
leave for Chicago Saturday morning.

Too Much Risk.
teen1an.

The Columbia Register says the big
insurance companies are fighting shy
of taking risks on the county dispen-
saries. The bulk of them have been
insured in the North British and Mer-
camille Insurance Company at $1,000
each. Recently there was a fire in
Florence, in which the dispensary was
burned up. The company had to pay
the thousand dollar policy. Since
then Mr.. Seymour, an agent of the
company, has been to Columbia and
cancelled all of the policies, some
eighty in number, which his company
had written on county dispensaries.
The reason given tor this course is the
greatness of the risk. The company
considers that the nature of the dis
pensary business offers too great an
iuducement to incendiarism. Ii dis
penser gets short in his accounts, the
simplest way for him to conceal his
shortage or defalcation is to set fire t.
his dispensary and destroy all evidence
against himself. 1t is said that an ef-
fort was made to get several other
companies to issue policies on the dis
pensaries, but they "begged to be ex
cused."
