formal, though late decision to make
the platform definitely favorable to the
gold standard.

the coy msiden OF historic renown, say

Western friends had insisted upon max

friends were d. 81. Kohlsaat. Of Chlca
60 ex Governor Merriam, Of Minnesots,
M IRON T Herrlck OF Cleveland, and
several others, and even this result was
planned by Hanna, who intimated that
the action would come with better grace
from the Western adherents than from
the Eastern ones. and look less like a
copcession TO Wall street
Hanna did not give his formal consent
until the following day, Saturday, after
Senator Foraker and Governor Bushnell
and General Grosvsnor, of Ohio, had
cRnvAssed and approved the gold plat
form. These are the exact facts of the
platform situation up'to date, rs told by
members Of both conferences to Manning

sou4ces of information than any other
