Silver Leaders Not Entirely Satisfied With

CHICAGO, July 8. - The meeting
called by Chairman Jones of the resolu-
tions committee caused considerable
comment among the delegates who had
been informed that the platform was
completed. It appears that during the
session of the convention the silver lead
ers read the financial plank and criti-
cized it in some details. The wording
relating to legal tenders is unsatisfac-
tory to some who claim that it is sub
iect to misconstruction. There was also
a desire expressed to revise the plank
and make it more concise and express
in distinct terms the meaning of the
silver men. M

LEBANON, Mo-, July 8. Exon
gresham Richard P. Bland, accompa-

the day. He went to the Bland club to
watch the bulletins as they came in

Probability of a Gold Bolt.
Everywhere there is talk of gold
bolt, and it now seems very probable
that there may be definite action of at
least portion of the minority. The
leaders, however, are still exercising
their influence to restrain their follow
ers. The New York delegation has de-
cided not to withdraw. Ex-Governor
Flower, who at first advocated a bolt,
changed front, but George 3. Mcclellan
and Perry Belmont were icr r;:t.:.< al
action. The course Of the committee Gil
credentials in deciding to unseat TIE
Michigan gold delegation had the ef-
feet, in an indirect way, Of staying the
strong hand of the silver leaders. It
precipitated storm Of protests from
the gold men, who said they considered
it simply an exercise of force. The
Massachusetts and Connecticut delega-
tons
Were Especially Incensed
and they threatened to either withdraw
from the convention or decline partici-
patton in its action if the Michigan
delegation was unseated. Coupled with
this came the intimation that Senator
White, who had been selected for per-
manent chairman, would rule that q
nomination could be made by two
thirds of the delegates voting in tho
convention. It was this latter threat
more than the other which decided the
committee on credentials to reconsider
the Michigan case. If such ruling
were made the Bland men, with their
big lead, could compass his nomination
if the gold men declined to vote. The
friends of the other candidates became
alarmed at the possibility, and, with
swift combination against the Mis-.
sOuClau, uudUo uaSGo
To Reconsider Their Action.
It was this hitch in the committee on
credentials which rendered the day
session Of the convention nullity So
far as results were concerned. For over
three hours the convention awaited the
end of the struggle in the committee on
credentials, occupying their time in
listening to the oratory of silver cham
pions. The gold men sat silent and i'm
passive, as half q dozen silver orators
were one after the other called to the
stage to stir the flood and fire the imag-
ination Of their supporters. They
seemed Indifferent while thousands
yelled themselves hoarse and at no time
took any part in the demonstration.
