HARTFORD, CONN. November o.
Regarding the prospects OF the silver
Democrats in this state. Chairman Troup,
OF the State Central Committee, said to-
day:
II believe there Is a fighting chance for
Bryan I'm Connecticut. The Republican
committees are not counting on the de-
fection from the party The silver Re-
publicans are an unknown quantity,
while the gold Democrats have openly de-
clared themselves. If the silver Repubh-
cans who will vote for Bryan Outnumber
the gold Democrats who have deserted
and boted, the state will give its electoral
vote for Bryan. The Democrats
will elect the congressman In the Second
District. eight OF the twenty-four sena-
tors. and 100 of the members Of the Gene
raj Assembly. The silent vote that has
ticn. We expect silver Republicans Will
vote our ticket by the thousand. and this
our Republican friends have failed TO
calculate upon. II looks bright in Con-
necticut."

 Babel Breaks Loose.
 The huge cross, with it's gilded crown, with inscriptions from Bryan's speech on both, was carried at the head of the noisy mob of boys apparently recruited and kept in reserve for the occasion. It was followed by flags, banners and state guidons. Deafening yells, whistles and cat calls were kept up, although it was quite evident that the delegates as a whole took little part in the demonstra- ton.
 There was no enthusiasm, but there was a babel of noise and uproar which stimulated it.
 When there was comparative Hull in the tumult motion was made by dele- gate in the center of the aisle that the convention adjourn without day.
 The chairman pounded with his gavel and tried in vain to restore order. After some time, however, and without for maj statement as to fhe nomination of MT. Bryan, he put the question, declared it carried and at 4:40 D. m. the conven- ton adjourned sine die.

 The fireman of the engine says that Dobbs when discovered was on a bridge, and made a desperate effort to escape death. and had made a spring for safety when struck by the outer edge of the engine.
 The body was brought to the city and turned over to the undertaken, and while considerably bruised was not mangled.

TERLIBLE LOSS OF LIFE.

Denver, Col, July 25.--This morning terrible state of affairs was revealed at Morrison, Golden Central City and other points in Colorado where last nights storm ragged fiercest. Dead bodies, hor- ribly mangled, were drowned, and at 9 o'clock thirty dead had been recovered, of which twenty-one were in Morrison alone. Trains left Denver this morning with collins for the stricken districts. The scene of desolation and ruin is be- tween here and Idledale, on Bear creek. There were known to be about fifty peo- pie camping in the bottoms, but reports as to their present situation are very meager. Couriers have come in stating that all are safe at Idledale. From ten miles above Evergreen nothing has been heard Many missing bodies are sup posed to be at the bottom of the canon.

Sound Mon ey'' Men Were Busy Yesterday
 Communicating With Sympathizers.
 Chicago, July 25.-The executive com mittee of the "sound money" national democracy was busy today communicat- ing by telegraph and mail with leading ..sound money" democrats in other states with a view to securing prompt organi- zation and the selection of provisional national committeeman for the meeting in Indianapolis August to arrange the time and place for holding the national convention and issue the call therefor. The executive committee desires so far as feasible, that men of national promi- hence and party influence should be named as committeeman so that the call of the convention to be signed by them shall carry as great weight as possible. As soon as the new national committee men are secured by action of the state organization or through the executive correspondence their names will be made public. MT. Bynum of Indiana and MT. Robbins of Illinois are doing most of the correspondence work.
 Encouraging telegrams continued to come in today from eastern supporters of the third ticket movement.

JOHNSTON AT MT PINSON Nearly Two Thousand People
 Were There. OTHER ORATORS WERE THERE And the Speeches From That of the Head of the Ticket Down We're Vote
 Makers Barbecue.

Yesterday was a glorious day for democ- Iacy at Mount Pinson. The crowd present was estimated all the way from 1900 to 200O Speeches were made in the morning by Col J. J. Altman, D. A. Greene and Capt. F. F. O'Brien and these gentlemen were followed by Captain Johnston. At the conclusion Of Captain Johnstons speech elegant bar becue and dinner was served.
 It was announced that there would be a joint discussion in the afternoon, as there were some populist candidates present, but from some cause the populists refused to take part and addresses were made by Congressman Underwood, Dr. Cunningham and Professor Burruss.
 The speeches were all sermons of good old time democracy, and the speakers were listened to with marked attention. It was in reality a. day of pleasure blended with ad- dresses of information that are calculated to create a better feeling among the people and settle prejudlces that have existed for several wears and kept famed into blaze by designing office hunters.
