WHAT THEY ARE EXPECTING TO DO
Messrs. Squire and Hyde Busy with
Important Matters.

Washington, June Ex-senator Squire
has so many matters of national impor-
lance on hand that it was necessary for
him to remain until the very close of the
session. He expects to get out to the
state at a very early day and is preparing
to put up a good vigorous campaign for
the senatorship. He is not at all dis
mayed by the announcement of Cover
nor McGraw's candidacy, as that has
been confidently expected for year or
more.
Representative Doolittle will attend the
national convention at ST. Louis, as 1t Is
very little out of his way home, proceed
ing Immediately after than to the state.
While the announcement of the declara-
ton by the Everett convention upon fl
nacial questions was something of a sur
prise to him, he has since received re-
peated assurances from leading men ali
over the state that there is no feeling
existing other than of the most perfect
satisfaction with his work as a congress
man, and that his denomination is a fore
gone conclusion
Representative Hyde will not go to the
st. Louis convention as was originally
his intention He will stay short time
in this city in order to finish up some pen
sion business and other department work
in the interests of his constituents, which
he was unable to get satisfactorily settled
during the rush incident to the last week.
of congress. The establishment of sew
eral mail routes in eastern Washington
are greatly desired, especially a direct
service from Coulee City to Waterville
He has already assurances from the de

route at least will be shortly established

RADICAL SILVER MEN TO BOLT
Unless They Have Their Own Way
on the Financial Plank.

CT louis Time 14-Senator Dubois and
Representative Hartman of Montana
ioined Senator Teller here tonight There
IS no longer any doubt of the purpose OF
these radical silver men to bolt the act1on
Of the convention unless they have their
own way on the financial plank. They
realize that they are in a hopeless minor
ity and they have carefully laid their
plans to talk out of the convention. The
program they have arranged will prob
ably furnish the most dramatic and SEN
sational incident of the convention. They
intend, as a preliminary, to marshal all
the strength they can in the committee on
resolutions for silver. They know they
will fail, but instead of their attempting
to secure a compromise it will be their
plan to so throw their strength as TO
force, if possible, the adoption Oh
stralght-out gold plank, believing that an
emphatic gold declaration will put them
in a more advantageous position for what
Is to follow.
AS one of them said tonight: IF the re-
publican convention can not be right, we
will force it to be honest. Better gold
declaration for all concerned than an
aquivocal plank that wears gold"
The fight will then be carried to the
floor of the convention under the leader
ship of Teller. The Colorado senator, as
the head and strength of the silver CON

which his friends say will be the effort OF
his life. 1t will be his valedictory to the
republican party. 1t will be followed, after
the convention has voted down the minor
ity report which he will offer, by the for
NAL announcement of the severance OF the
ties which bind him and his associates to
| the party. This will be done in the form
| of a statement to the convention or an
| address to the people, probably the for

| will go to Colorado, and other republican
| silver men will remain here and issue an
address to the slverites of the country OF
all parties, calling upon them to support
| Senator Teller, as the pre-eminent repre-
sentative of the issue, for president. The
| silver men expect to carry at least five
| states out of the convention with them
| Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Nevada and Mon
| tana. and they are very hopeful the dem
| ocratic convention at Chicago will nom
| mate the man who leads the bolt here.

PROGRAM OF THE SILVER MEN
Contingent VIII He Small and Under
Perfect Discipline.

st. Louis, June H-The arrival of Sen
ators Teller and Mantle has had the eff
feet of reviving interest in the program
of the silver men. The silver contingent
will be small, but compact, and it is be-
lieved under quite perfect discipline. 1t
will be composed principally Of the dele
gates from the states of Colorado, Mon
tana and Utah, Idaho and Nevada, and
possibly some of the territories.
These delegates will demand a declar-
alton by the convention in favor of free
coinage under the conditions prevailing
prior to 1873, and in case of failure to
secure this, some if not all of them are
expected thereafter to cease to act with
the convention. 1t is believed there will
be exceptions, but who they will be if any,
will not be determined until the time
shall come for action. They will also
possibly issue an address to the country
explaining their attitude
After the conclusion of the republican
convention the silver men will probably
meet to determine upon a future course.
There is a probability of their placing
an Independent republican silver man in
nomination for the presidency, with the
hope of securing for him the support of
the democratic convention, but this has
not been absolutely determined upon.

LEAVE THE QUESTION OPEN
senator Warren on the Financial
Situation.

St. Louis, June Ex-senator Warren OF
Wyoming. who arrived here tonight from
Washington, believes that the best way to
settle the dispute over the money plank
is to leave the whole question open. Sen
ator Warren is a free silver man, but was
instrumental in securing a declaration by
the convention in his state against bolt
ing. He thinks it would be wise policy,
rather than attempt to frame a financial
plank to be acceptable to the extremists
on both sides, which must in the nature
OF things be unsatisfactory to both, to
leave the whole question to the public for
solution.

GOV. BRADLEY WOULD ACCEPT
Vice-Presidency If Nominated by
AccIamatiOn.


Frankfort, KY, June IA. - Governor
Bradley and party left this evening. The
action of the governor in attending the
convention is construed to mean that his
name will not go before the convention.
Elliott Kelly, who was secretary of the
convention which instructed for Bradley
for president, and who accompanied Gov
ernor Bradley to st. Louis, said to an As
ISOLATED Press man:
Governor Bradley has assured me that
he does not desire second place on the
ticket, but if the nomination for vice
president goes to the south it should be
rendered to Kentucky's governor.
Governor Bradley with the Kentucky
people, represents the eliminating point
of human greatness, and his well known
views on currency would serve to
strengthen the ticket should a man whose
stand on the issue is not as as strong as
Bradley's be nominated for president.
Bradley broke the solid south last fall,
and, as McKinley's running mate, the
once solid south would be permanently
shattered this fall. 1 believe that if Brad
ley is rendered the second place by &C
clamation, he would accept it,"
