at the secretary's office thls morning
disclosed that the secretary had the mat
ter under consideration, and had decided
not to certify either ticket--the first on
the ground that the silver republican
convention was irregular and not proper
ly called, the second on the ground that
the electors ticket filed by petition was
presented a day too late.
Attorney General Parsons Immediately
telegraphed Judge Sullivan for his I'M

The Mckinley and populist committees
offered every support possible, but the
democratic committee realizing that such
an action would disfrauchise 10000 or
600 Bryan and Sewall votes, refused
to concur In the revolutionary proceed

As soon as it was known that the
democratic committee would not agree to
support the secretary, the tickets were
both certified and are now in tho mails
