AGAINST HEsING's ADVICE.
Mr.. whitney Will Go to Chicago and Make
His right for Gold.

CHICAGO, July senator David B. HllI
and VIM. c. Whitney are expected here on
Friday afternoon and their coming is look
cd forward to as the opening Of the conflict
of the Eatern Colds advocates against the
silver men. Mr.. Whitney does not evil
dently believe that all is yet lost so far as
his movement is concerned. for in coming
here he ignores the advice of Washington
Hesing. Chicago's postmaster. and the al
most solitary chief representative Of the
gold standard doctrine of President Cleve-
land now onithe ground. Mr.. Hesing wrote
to Mr.. Whitney Saturday telling him that
a fight for gold would be so much wasted
energy and that in mis- opinion the surest
way out of the trouble was to let the sil-
yer men have absolute control and then
after they had finished their work the gold
standard people could take some action.
Speaking Of the matter tonight Mr..
Hesing said:
"AIr. Altgeld will control this conven-
tion just as absolutely as he controlled
the Peoria convention. His pronounce
ments seem to carry great weight. Sera-
tor Hill was perfectly satisfactory as a
candidate for temporary chairman to the
silver people. Mr.. Atgeld said No., and
that settled it,"
