The Indiana delegation TO st. Louis will
use it's best efforts TO have the Indiana
financial plank inserted in the national
platform as the voice of the party upon
this question. The plank reads as follows:
I'VE are firm and emphatic in our de-
mand for honest money. We believe that
our money should not be inferior to the
money of the most enlightened nations Of
the earth. We are unalterably opposed to
every scheme that threatens to debase or

regulations that it's parity with gold can
be maintained; and in consequence are op-
posed TO the free, unlimited and indepen-
dent coinage of silver at ratio OF l6 TO L.
This plank has attracted much attention
both East and West for its simplicity of
language and straightforwardness of state

Plank VIII BE the Model.

Plank VIII BE the Model.
ST. LOUIS, June Ex-senator Thurston,
member of the national Republican commit
tee from Nebraska, and delegate to the
convention, was among the early arrivals
to-day. He appeared at the breakfast table
wearing the first convention presidential
and vice presidential badge which has been
displayed by any of the Republican leaders.
1t bore the faces of Mckinley and Hobart,
of New Jersey.
"It is pretty well understood" said the
Senator that 1 am for Mckinley for first
place. With his nomination assured. as it
is.'' the Senator continued, I'VE want an
Eastern man as his running mate, and i
believe Hobart to be the available man.
Hs meets the requirements Of the situation
in all respects. We want to keep New
Jersey in the Republican ranks now that
we have it there. Furthermore, Hobart is
strong in New York. where he is personally
well known and much esteemed
Asked what course he thought would be
adopted by the convention on the financial
question. Senator Thurston replied that he
believed the Indiana declaration on that
subject would form the model on which
the money declaration would be based. 1T
is he said, brief and explicit and very
skillfully avoids reference by terms to any
of the mooted questions. 1t is unmistak-
ably a sound-money utterance. At the
same time it avoids all mention OF the
gold standard, reference to which by name
would drive votes away from the ticket In
some of the States. 1t is better than the
Ohio platform, which, while when analyzed,
Is just as clearly for sound money, makes
too prominent by name the silver question.
The Indiana form Of expression VIII be
more acceptable in the Last than would
that of the Ohio Republicans" The Sena-
tor expressed the opinion that the Indiana
platform would be satisfactory TO all the
Western States, except the five silver-pro-
ducing States, Colorado, Utah. Montana,
Idaho and Nevada, and possibly Wyom-
ing. But" he said, that as they have
ali told, only nineteen votes in the Elec-
toral College, the party could afford TO lose
them.''
Mr. Thurston said. I'm reply to question.
that he had no doubt that some OF the
delegates from the Eastern seaboard would
make a strong contention for more pro-
but that it would not be wise TO concede
their extreme demands. They Will in the
end be satisfied with a conservative pro-
nouncement" he said, 'and they Will be
GLAD enought to take 1t in preference TO the
uneuuivocal free-silver declaration the Chi
cago convention will give out
Referring to other questions or which the
platform will treat, the Senator said ne
thought first place would be given TO the
tariff as that is and has been a distinctive
issue of the Republican party He thought
there would be a declaration demanding in
strong terms a distincitvely American
policy. but he was of the opinion that the

FRANKFORT, KY, June 10.-During the
past week statements have been sent out
from Washington that Gov. w. o. Bradley,
who was last year elected Governor of
Kentucky on gold-standard platform over
a Democratic free-silver candidate. had
originally been in favor Of a compromising
policy and that Governor Mckinley had
induced him to adopt the gold-standard
policy: that he has since negotiated with
Mckinley and other candidates. and this
has been followed by statements, puporting
to come from Frankfort. that Governor
Bradley had in his possession letters writ

licans of national prominence. which he
would make public in retaliation for the
aspersions against his sincerity. 1t has been
intimated that the expected disclosures

of Tennessee, First Assistant Postmaster
general under President Harrison.
1t is said tonight that the Allison men,
who had abandoned all hope even before
Mr.. Manleys surrender, will not present
the name of the Iowa Senator at all. but
will make some effort to secure the vice
presidency for Senator Gear. Such efforts
will prove futile. Mr.. Proctor announces
that Mr. Hobart, Of New Jersey. is to be
the Vice President. While the declaration
of Mr.. Manley, given above, contained
nothing that has not been looked
for for many weeks, yet it caused flutter
of excitement when it was known that the
manager of MIR. Reed had announced that
there was no further hope among the
leaders of the forces OF the man from
Maine. Other supporters of Mr.. Reed said
that the declaration would cost Mr.. Reed
at least half of the votes that would have
been cast for him had nothing of the kind
been said, and several of Reeds supporters
asserted that the declaration of Mr.. Man.
ley ought to be followed by a statement
from Mr.. Reed that his name would not
be presented, SO that those who were yet
under obligations to vote for him would
be released. 1t was said that in the face
of certain and admitted defeat. delegates
could not be expected 10 vote Tor Reeu
and that probably all of New Hampshires
votes, all of Rhode Islands and all but
one in Connecticut would be cast for Nc
Kiney even If Reeds name was presented.
There are some delegations from the South
which will take similar action. 1t was also
stated that the declaration of Mr. Manley
would weaken the other candidates as 1T
would be sure to influence the wavering to
vote for Mckinley.
Senator Gear who is representing Iowa
on the national committee. said tonight
that, notwithstanding the declaration of
Mr.. Manley, Senator Allison's name would
be presented to the convention and voted
for.
W. A. Sutherland. member of the national
committee from New York, and who is
the only prominent representative of Gov
ernor Morton's interest in st. Louis, said
sententiously: Governor Morton will be
presented to the convention and We hope
to nominate him.
