INDIANA SPLIT
Delegates Not a Unit ON the Money
Question.


CHICAGO, July 3-There Is united
feeling in the Indiana delegation on
the candidacy of Gov Matthews, but
a sharp division has arisen on the
money question, and a choice of a
member Of the national committee
There are two headquarters at the
Palmer house, one conducted by the
state delegation, and another desig-
mated as the Indiana sound money
Democrats. 1t is expected that the
clash in the delegation will be brought
to crisis at 3 o'clock tomorrow when
the first full and formal meeting will
be held and when the important mat
ter of naming members of the COM
nittees on platform, organization and
resolutions, and of selecting a member
Of the national committee will be de-
cided, unless it is then determined to
postpone the subject until Monday.
The present plan is to have the contest
out tomorrow, and there is much activ-
ity in consequence.
Secretary Sheerin, of the national
committee, is the Indiana member of
the national body, but owing to his
differences on the financial question
with the controlling silver element of
the delegation, an effort will be made
to succeed him by a free silver man.
In this connection the name of Leon o.
Bailey. of indianapolis. Is being men
tened as a candidate against Mr..
Sheerin.

of 1t.
CHICAGO, July 81. Sterling Nor
ton who arrived in Chicago today,
spoke as follows on the political out
look: 'It is a serious question, just
what the gold Democrats will do when
they are confronted with the choice Of
either Mckinley or a free silver DEM
ocrat. I am a Democrat because / do
not believe in paying prohibitive
protective tax on everything [ buy.
That, I take it, is the fundamental
principle of Democracy. Yet, if L vote
for free silver Democrat I cast bal
lot in favor of the protection of silver.
If I vote for Mckinley I cast a ballot
in behalf of protection for everything
but silver. Besides I am not so sure
that, in voting for Mckinley 1 would
not cast vote for the protection of
everything and free silver McKinley's
record shows him to be like Wat Har-
din, last years Democratic candidate
for governor of Kentucky q free silver
man standing on gold platform.
(Which will you do, Secretary Nor
ton, vote for Mckinley or a free silver
Democratic"
The silence could be heard distinctly,
finally Mr.. Morton replied: 81 don't
know. I require heap of thinking
What do 1 think of the nomination
Of Mr.. Teller? We'll If the Democrats
want to repeat the fiasco Of 1872, I
think they would stand an excellent
chance by nominating Senator Teller
That would surely be a fine choice to
offer to emocrats-McKinley one Re-
publican and Teller another Republi-
can. Yes 1 think it could be safely

PETTIGREW THERE.
Is In Chicago to Urge TeIIer's Nom
inatiOn,

CHICAGO, July 3.-The forces which
are operating in the interest of Senator
Teller's nomination were augmented to-
day by the arrival of Senator Petit
grew, Of South Dakota; Congressman
Hartman, Gen. A. J. Warner, of the
national bimetallic union, and others.
During the day these gentlemen and
other friends Of the Colorado senator,
including Senators Dubois, Mantle and
Stewart, and Congressman Shafroth
called upon various delegates. This
had the effect Of increasing to a con-
siderable extent the discussion Of the
wisdom Of Mr. Teller's nomination.
The suggestion Of his name was re-
ceived with varying effect.
Many Of the leading Democrats and
especially his colleagues in the senate
accepted the suggestion as altogether
reasonable, though some others did not
receive it so favorabIy. The Teller
men disclaiming intention to make an
aggressive campaign in his behalf but
consider that under the circumstances
there is no improperly in directing at
tention to his availability. Their prin-
cipal points are that he is better equip
ped for the office of president than any
other man mentioned and that he is
the only man who can secure the vote
of the silver Republicans and the Popu-
lists They claim to have received con-
siderable encouragement and Senator
Dubois openly predicts Mr.. Tellers'

VICE CHANCELLOR COLGROvE OF
THE PYTHIANS PLEASED WITH
MINNE'S PLUCK.
FNCAMPMENT TO BE SUCCESS
TN NO SENSE IN COMPETITION
WITH THE CLEVELAND
GATHERING.
UNANIMTTY IN THE RANK
Talk of a Split Is IdIe-Matters of
Importance to Mempers of the
Knights of Pythias.

Phillip T. Colgrove, Of Hastings,
Mich, supreme vice chancellor Of the
Knights Of Pythias Of America, and
one Of the youngest men who ever
held that honor, is in the city, visiting
his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. G. H. Col
grove, 100 Thirteenth street south.
Last evening the supreme vice chan
cellor was the guest of Minneapolis
Lodge No. 1, and delivered an address
to the members There were also pres
ent as speakers, Grand Chancellor Mi
Ian, Of st. Paul, Supreme Representa-
tive Hilsher, of st. Paul; Past Grand
Chancellor Mcdonald, and Grand
Keeper of Records and Seals Wheaton,
of Minneapolis. The lodge held it's reg
ular session, and the addresses of the
above dignitaries were interspersed
with the regular routine. After the
session the honored guest Of the even
ing was entertained by the local
knights.
Mr.. Colgrove said last evening: "My
visit here has not direct bearing upon
Pythian matters. My mother is i'll,
and 1 came up to pay her visit 1
find you people all hugely interested
in preparing for the grand Pythian
mer. From past experiences with this
city, I know the affair will be a great
success. OF course Cleveland will take
big crowd of the uniformed rank
too, but Minneapolis will secure her
share Of commentaries. The encamp-
ments Of Cleveland and Minneapolis
are on the same order. 1t is mistake
to think that there is any split or di-
vision in the order over the matter Of
these two encampments."
There Is perfect unanimity in the
ranks, and there will be no friction.
The Cleveland encampment will Sc
cure many of the Eastern comman-
deries, and Minneapolis will secure the
representations from the West and
North, and many from the South. If
there is any rivalry, 1t is wholly good
natured. Minneapolis was naturally
disappointed at losing the national en-
campment Of the uniformed rank, but
the manner in which she has set about
to secure Northwestern encampment
shows her pluck
what matters Of Importance will
come up before the session Of the su-
preme lodge at Cleveland?"
II think one Of the important mat
ters will be the question of future juris-
dfction over the uniformed rank 1t is
very likely the Jurisdiction will be
placed back under the same system as
before the Washington encampment
The uniformed rank is at present gov
erned by council, but it is not salts
fa Glory to the rank"
Mr.. Colgrove will be in the city for
two or three days before returning to
Michigan.

SENIORS HAVE TO PAY.
The Promenade Caterers Win Their
Suit.

The trouble between the Minneapolis
Catering company and the Senior
Promenade committee of the class of
'96 of the University was finally settled
yesterday afternoon in favor of the
caterers. The case came up before
Justice of the Peace c. E. Bond, and
after three hours spent in examining
witnesses for both sides the case was
given to the jury, which returned a
verdict for 800, the full amount of the
contract. The case has attracted
quite little interest among the uni
versity people and their friends, and
the rooms of the court were crowded
to their utmost. Several witnesses
were called for the caterers, and then
came list of a dozen or so, of prom,
inent young society people Of the city
and the university. The list was not
confined to young men either, but there
was bevy of fair maidens who went
through the acts of being sworn and
giving testimony in a very business
like manner. However the old theory

Of the day in the fire departments blowout
July f. The invitation was extended by the
department but the granite boys returned
their regrets. When asked why they had
taken this action it is understoon that as a
cause they assign the recent disturbance cre-
ated against them in the strike, at which time
the merchants and citizens generally con-
demned their action on the ground that they
had no cause to strike, and sympathy was
decidedly against the men. They now claim
that the citizens meddled with their affairs
and for this reason refuse to turn out. In
view Of the fact that the firemen have turned
out and assisted the granite cutters when
ever they gave celebration, the fremen
naturally feel very sore.

ned by the League.

The League Of American Wheelmen held its
monthly meeting last evening at the Nicolet
House and transacted the monthly routine
business of the club.
1t was decided to give banquet at Hotel St.
Louis, Minnetonka, some time during the
month, when the moon would be favorable for
a wheel trip out there. The matter was left
in the hands of the committee on entertain
ment. The attention of the club was called
to the fact that the Lake street cycle path
would be ready by Saturday, July IL, and that
a grand opening of the path contem-
plated by the Cycle Path association. which
hopes to have general turnout of the local
cyclists 1t was, therefore, decided to also
take part in the opening of the first bicycle
path built in Minneapolis. The matter of join
ing the proposed Bicyclsts' Confederation Of
Minneapolis, which was referred to the ex-
ecutive committee at the last meeting, was
recommitted to the committee with power to
act in the matter. E. H. Knowlton, S. B.
Reese and A. B. Choate were appointed as a
committee to see the council committee which
has in hand the proposed ordinance compelling
riders to carry bells and lanterns, with the
end in view that the passing Of such an ordi-
nance would be discouraged.

close down until the usual hour at o'clock.
and this step on the part of the company and
authorities undoubtedly prevented further

ENGLAND,s GOOD WISHES
Extended to This Country On It's
National Day.

LONDON, July 3.-The Daily Telegraph In
long article on Anglo-American relations,
says: Nothing but the good wishes and
godspeed Of Englishmen will attend our
American kinsmen in the celebration of their
national festival today. We appreciate their
sturdy virtues and admire their wonderful
progress, and we auger for them a future
even more marvellous than the past" The
article suggests, however that friendliness
could be more effectually safe-guarded by q
cessation of the twisting of the lions tail,
"the vertabrae Of which are not incapable OF
disocation''
Continuing, the Daily Telegraph says with
reference to the hostility of American tariffs
to England: "It Is not pleasant, even to men
of overlooking Christian charity, to reflect
that their commerce is languishng and their
prosperity declining through the policy of a
nation to which they SO sincerely wish well.
Americans not likely to renounce pro-
election for the sake of their English kins-
men, but they cannot be surprised of the in
creasfngly rigid application of its doctrines
should have to some extent an estranging
effect upon the English people,.

ST. JOHN RESIGNS.
Mixed Politics Too Much With Bust
ness.

NEW YORK, July 3.-William P. St. John.
president of the Mercantile National bank,
has resigned his position. Mr.. st. John has
for several years been an outspoken advocate
OF the free coinage of silver, and in this has
been at variance with the directors of the
bank. The latter was brought to crisis to-
day, when at a meeting of the board Presi-
dent st. John read a letter from one of the
directors, opposing his views. The portion
Of the letter which particularly offensive to
President st. John is as follows:
Il have just heard that you intend to take
part in the silver convention at Chicago
That you are under obligation to do so is my
belief. l admit that the position you hold
gives you power before a coHs ention. but
you. ought not to go when your board is
against your views. 1 am your friend"
Finding that a majority of the directors
thought that his attending the convention as
a free silver advocate would work harm to
the bank, Mr.. st. John at once rendered his
resignation. He said in doing SO he would
not give up working for his convictions at
any cost. The board of directors accepted
his resignation with an unanimous expression
of regret.

Southern Seaboard Does Not Favor
Him.

WASHINGTON, July "a number
Of delegates to the Democratic nation
al convention from states bordering on
the South Atlantic seaboard are in the
city to-day en- route to Chicago. In
terviews with a number of them show
that they are not committed to any OF
the aspirants for the presidential NOM
ination. They say that after looking
over the field at Chicago they will de-
eide who to support. Bland and Boies
are mentioned with favor by most of
the delegates but they add that they
are not tied to any one as yet. Ex-
Congressman Waddill, one of the North
Carolina delegates-at-large said that
his state had a candidate for the vice
presidency in the person of Judge
Walter Clark, of the North Carolina
supreme court. The delegates speak
very kindly of Senator Teller but say
they feel that Democrat should be
given the nomination.
