Vhicago, July 5.-This is to be one of
the most remarkable conventions in the
history of American politics With the
convention but forty-eight hours away
and almost three-fourth of the dele
gates on the ground. it is so hedged
about by conditions that little can be
foreseen as to candidates.
The feature of the day has been the
seeming utter collapse Of the Teller
boom. The talk of the existence Of the
senatorial cabal plotting to secure Tel
,ers' nomination has aroused among
the incoming delegates feeling OF the
most bitter and passionate resentment,
and the cry is heard everywhere to-day
that the nominee must be a Democrat.
1t is considered almost treason to sug-
gest Teller. This strong revolt against
what is deemed an attempt at senatorial
dictadCn seems to have check-mated the
caCal. The the free silver Republican
and the Populist leaders realize that
the game is slipping away from them,
they are inclined TO grow ugly III their
desperation.
The former have begun TO predict de-
feat if q Democrat is nominated on the
ground that no matter now disposed
they might be to support Democrat on
a free silver platform, their friends in
the Western States would not follow
them bag and baggage into the Demo-
cratic party. The Populists could with
difficulty be restrained to-day from is
suing an address saying that they could
not support a Democrat. Both were
met with the argument that if their
PROFESSIONS OF DEVOTION

pretences. they must join hands with.
the Democrats in the attempt to elect
a candidate on the issue. So far as the
silver Republican boilers were concern

ont Of the st. Louis convention because
of their convictions, they must choose,
if the Populists carried out their threats,
between the nominee Of a party that
controlled well nigh half the votes in
the country, and the nominee OF a
Populist convention TO be held at st.
Louis.
The Teller interview from Denver
printed here this morning saying that
Ae would support the nominee of this
convention completed their discomfi-
ture. 1t exposed their bluff. Although
the possibility of Teller's selection now
seems to have vanished, the Democratic
silver leaders. who still believe that he
is the most available candidate, though
they may for the present have been
driven out into the open and forced to
publicly espouSe the cause of some other
candidate. are powerful men and skill

of the delegation, was engineered by
Secretary of State Henrichsen after he
had secured a statement from A,tgeld
that the latter would abide by the will
of the majority. The Altgeld men now
challenge the accuracy of the poll and

From a StaG Correspondent.
Chicago. His, July 5.-Governor Mac
C0rkle arrived yesterday, and is at the
Victoria. Asked as TO his Vice Presi-
dental aspirations, he said he had
none. He said he had never given the
matter serious consideration.
He wished to know OF your represen-
tative where the information as To his
alleged candidacy came from. When
informed from Charleston, he said no
supposed some friends probably wished
to compliment him.
The Governor was informed that
Wheeling friends had stated he would
be a candidate for the Vice Presidency
in case Whitney was nominated for
President.
The Governor laughed heartily at
the suggestion. and said there was no
foundation for the story.

cation would be for Mac if he was

Chicago, July 5.-The Democratic ma
tional convention is not only in guam
dary as to whom shall be selected for
President, but it has a still higher fence
to jump in the matter of the selection Of
officers to preside over the temporary
and permanent organizations.
The latter officer may be selected with
out much trouble if the selection OF the
Temporary chairman could be salsfac-
orily arranged.
Senator Hill is the undoubted choice
of the national committee. He is also
the one man from the East of national
prominence who is willing to test his
popularity before the convention. 1t has
been claimed by the god men that the
silver friends of Senator Hill in both
House and Senate, many Of whom are
delegates to the convention, would have
sufficient strengh and would use their
influence to secure his election as tenn
porary chairman if ne should be named.
But it is now we'll understood that the
silver men will not vote for anybody but
a silver man for chairman.
During the day many silver men who
are friends of Senator Hill have called
upon him and urged him not to allow
his name to be used by the national
committee and not TO place himself in
a position where he might be Inundated
by being defeated. They have assured
him that they have a high regard for
him and that it will be disagreeab.e to
them to have vote against him, but the
situation is such that they must have
a silver man to make the first speech of
the convention. Senator Hill has ad-
vised all those who have called upon
him to pursue a conservative course.
He has expressed the belief that If the
convention adopts a silver platform
that there will surely be bolt, and he
thinks that if conservatism is shown
that the bolt will be much reduced. II
lis understood that Senator Hill believes
that in case the convention should sus-
tain the national committee in the selec-
ton of himself for temporary chairman
that
THE BOLT FROM NEW YORK STATE
and possibly some other sections of the
East will be greatly minimized. The
silver men feel assured that Senator Hill
will not bolt, but under the instruc-
tions of the Democratic State conven-
ton of New York. the delegation acts
as unit. and is a majority should de-
eide to bolt or to take no further part in
the convention after the adoption Of the
silver platform. Senator Hill. who has
endorsed this urit rule, wOud be COM
pelled to abide by the results.
While Senator Hill is constantly ad-
vising conservatism on the part Of the
silver men, he has given no pledges that
ne would make a conservative speech if
selected to preside over the convention.
w. f .Sheehan, member OF the national
committee from New York, and one OF
the closest personal friends Of Senator
Hill in that State, was asked If Hill was
selected for temporary chairman if ha
would make a conservative speech and
not one which would be obnoxious to
the silver mel, Mr.. Sheehan replied:
Senator Hill, If elected temporary
chairman of the convention, will make
a gold speech"
Mr.. Sheehan was asked how he re-
garded Senator Hilps chances for the
place and declared ne did not believe
the silver men would turn Hill down If

Col. Ralphsnyder attained national
prominence as the only representative
from West Virginia at the silver conyen-
ton held in Salt Lake City, Utah, many
months ago, and attracted the partlcu-
lar attention of prominent silver lead
ers by his earnest, enthusiastic and
courageous advocacy of the white metal
and his determined opposition to the or
ganization of an independent free silver
political party.
ON THAT OCCASION.
he declared that the Democratic party
was the logical medium through which
the reconciliation of silver could be
most speedilyaccomplished: that the true
Democracy Cthe Southern Democracy
would unite with the West for the re-
monetizat.on of silver at the ratio of
16 to /; that his State would send a solid
silver delegation TO the approaching
Democratic convention instructed to
that end. Mr.. Ralphsnyder's efforts
have been crowned with success.

didate for the Democratic nomination for
Governor, has arrived end is quartered
at the Auditorium. To an Associated
Press representative, Mr.. Ralphsnyder
said:
Il believe Richard P. Bland is the
first choice of the majority of our dele
CATION. The expression Silver Dick is
a synonym for '16 to L free silver. Some
of our delegates are here. The others
will arrive Monday morning. Great in
justice has been done the silver people
of my State by the publication of an
alleged interview or conference puport-
ing to have taken place between ex-
Gov. Flower and Chairman Chiffon,
or my state, as IOlIoWS.
Ex-Governor Roswell P. Flower was
the first to arrive, and he did not wait
to get the stain of travel from his per-
son before he had launched into the
fight. The first place he tackled was
the West Virginia headquarters, where
he met Chairman Chiffon. He had a
vey animated conference with him, and
when he had finished he said to the
Associated Press representative: 81 had
an idea about the spread of the silver fal-
lacy, and now / have confirmed it.

they are not particularly in favor of this
silver business, but they have some 9TH

Democratic nomination for Governor of
West Virginia, have

l say the people of my State favor the
restoration of silver as a matter of prin-
cip!e; and resent the declaration they
are not particularly in favor of this sill
yer business, but are uncompromisingly
in earnest and sincerely determined in
their advocacy of the reservation of silver
to is full, complete and most liberal po-
sition in our monetary system, and to
this end they emphasize their sincerity
by passing most stringent Instructions
which each and every delegate from
West Virginia must respect and obey or

ency. l have no apprehension Of such
