and means Of the house when Mr.. Nc
tSInIey was chairman and who had
lone more towards the preparation OF
the tariff bill which bore Nc. McKln-

Mr. La Toilette took immediate occa-
sion TO dlsAvow this credit, to say that
Major Mckinley had labored untirinEly
upon the preparation OF the bill and
that itR shaping was largely due TO his
complete mastery Of the subject In

There was n slight furry over a rcso-
luton offered by Delegate Catron, Of
New Mexico, pledging the party 10 sup

into the Union as states OF the terri
tories OF Arizona, New Mexico and

Senator Lodge suggested as substi-

OF 1892 on this subject, which merely
provides for the admission OF territories

conditions prevailing In the territories

then taken on the financial plank, but
not until after Il had been amended

There was no division on the voto

When It came TO n vote on the adop-
ton Of the majority report Of the COM

dropped out and were comforting to-
gether In the corridor as TO their action
In the convention.
Chairman Foraker on n viva vocc

the platform as a whole adopted.
In speeches made during the day
AfrssrS Cannon. OF Utah, Dubois. Of
Idaho. Hartman. Of Montana, and
Cleveland, OF Nevada. and Fowler. OF

would follow Senator Teller In with

adoption Of the resolution. In the con-

Speeches were made by Senator Teller,
who Joined the Republican party at ITS
inception. and who was an ardent sup
porter OF Lincoln, and who for twenty
years has represented his state In the
senate Of the United States rs n Re-
publican, save for two years In the
cabinet OF President Arthur.
Senator Dubois, the handsome, stall
wnrt young senator from Idaho. whose
father was nominated for secretary OF
state OF Illinois. by Abraham Lincoln;
young Senator Cannon, OF Utah, whose
father was president Of the Mormon
church and Representative Hartman,
the young and vigorous congressman
from Montana; Lennon, OF California;
Mott, Of North Carolina, the son of DR..
Mott. the secretary Of the silver party,
ana the delegates from New Mexico.
Arizona and Oklohhoma, had voted
with them In committee. and they, too,
made speeches but did not announce
their purpose TO withdraw.
The scene was u most affecting one.
The gold men in the committee were
filled with compassion, and there wns
not dry eye In the room while Senator
Teller spoke, Senator Dubos, Senator
Cannon and Delegate Mott broke down
completely and wept like children.

ST. LOUIS, June 1.-THE Colorado
delegation held meeting tonight and
decided In positive terms to leave the

OF the platform containing declaration
for a gold standard. 1t has frequently
been announced that they would pursue
this course, hut there has really been
more or less doubt W to tonight that
they would, one or two members OF the
delegation being in doubt as to the Wis
dom OF the course.
Senator Teller was present and tod
the other members OF the delegation that
he appreciated TO the utmost the gravity
OF the step, and Notwithstanding their
Instructions 20 be governed by his Opin-
ion. he felt that the occasion wns one
when every man should be guided large
Is by his own opinion. The decision TO
go out OF the convention was unanl-
