BOURKE COCHRAN HEDGING.

Wants Goldbugs TO Fight Bryan and
Elect Mckinley and Then Fight Nc
Kiniey
New York, August 3.-The Hon.
Bourke Cochran was asked to-day if he
would support a third ticket if one were
nominated. notwithstanding the views
expressed in his interview published to-
day. He said:
If a convention be held, at which
all Democrats can be represented, /
should be strongly inclined TO accept
its decision. I think it more important
that the Democratic opponents OF Mr..
Bryan should be united in one move
ment.
In the comments on my interview
published this morning, | notice a sing
ular misapprehension on the part OF
some newspapers. Il s assumed that
the plan suggested by me contemplated
merely the assembling Of a convention
which would adopt a genuinely Demo-
cratic platform, nominate Mckinney
electors. and stop there. When | said
that Democrats, meeting in such a con-
vention as I suggested while nominal
ing Mckinley electors, would provide
for really Democratic opposition TO
the Mckinley administration during the
period Of its existence" I think IL would
be clear that | meant substantial and
effective opposition. Such an opposi-
ton could find an expression nowhere
but in Congress, and It could therefore
be maintained only by bringing Demo-
Gratis into a new organization which
would nominate candidates for State
officers. for Congress and for the State
legislature. With Mr. Bryan disposed
OF. opposition TO Mckinley and McKin-
leyites would become the duty OF the
Democratic party.
