MIR. FITCH'S STAND APPROVED.

MANY DEMOCRATS APPLAUD HIS REPUTATION
OF THE CHICAGO IDIOCY.
Controller Fitch. who last week made ringing
statement boiling the Bryan-Sewall free-silver
ticket Of Populism and dishonesty said yesterday
that he had been gratifed with many responses
from Democrats approving the stand he had taken.
II am satisfied" the Controller said. that gave
uterance to the sentiments OF large proportion OF
the genuine Democracy of this city whose patriotism
has aroused by the insidious assault upon the
National credit proposed by the Chicago platform
Letters and messages have como to me offering
congra tuatons from all classes of citizens and from
men Of every shade In politics
II am gratifed to be able to say, further. that no
fears need be entertained regarding the attitude OF
our German-American fellow-citizens They will
present practically solid front in opposition to the
plot to destroy the financial honor of the country
our adopted citizens of the Fatherland and their
descendants are. first of all. patriots The free
consequence among German voters. They
understand the utter sensele5sness OF this free
silver clamor and cannot be moved from their sup
port of sound money
Mr. Fitch added that in his Judgment the free
silver managers would make their main fight In the
West because they already aware of the
futility Of a contest in NewYork and the States
east of Ohio 1.-THE Empire State" he said. can be
counted upon to give an overwhelming majority for
sound money. Bryan and free silver stand no
chance with us"

THE SITUATION IN NORTH CAROLINA.

Washington July 20 CSpecaD.-The recent confer
ence between Senators Pritchard and Butler, at

ent was arranged it is supposed for rtadJustment
of the Political complexion Of the State hut nothing
Ia known definitely OF what was accomplished

here however. what was known OF the state or
affairs at the of the conference that II senator
Pr,tchard pledged the Republican vote or North
Carolina to a PopulIst electoral ticket he Will never
be abe TO redeem the pledge. On this subject
prominent North Carolina local politician SAID TO-
day TO Tribune correspondent:
"PrtcEard would weaken himself by any such
pledge He could not induce a sufficient number II
Republicans to for Popullst ticket for Pres!-
dent and Vice President TO insure Its success such
men "a Dockery Settle. Holton. Boyd, Moody and
Smothers would never consent to 1t In the world.

tlon or accepted 1t II made BY Butler. He may
have been weak enough to do 50. for he has all
along depended too much upon Buffers co-opera-
ton II he had been more independent the party in
the State would be stronger than IT is now Butler
is trying to save himself. Pritchard should under
stand this and not divide his own party IN a yam
effort TO relieve Butler from perilous SITUATION.
North Carolina Democrats here say that Butler
cannot carry more than a half probably not more

campaign against even the most populistic D emo
conference Is that. although Judge Russell. the Re
publican candidate for Governor. offered to with

mite was done with the proposition In fact: Repub.
iicans who attended the conference said afterward
that Russell would not come down: The Populists
have been bringing pressure. based TO some extent
on the opposition that as existed to Judge Russell
