More Names Suggested at In
dianapolis Convention.
Attempt to Break Up the Bragg
and Buckner Ticket.

| INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Sept. 2-There Is Il
strong movement on foot to break the Bragg
and Buckner combination by nominating
senator Palmer, Of Illinois. for president. In
spite of the fact that senator Palmer is an
octogenarian, and that he has come out in
favor OF Bragg, the men who do not think 1t ad-
visable to nominate the Wisconsin man have
asked Palmer to allow the use Of his name.
If he consents to run, the Illinois delegation
will present his name to the convention. The
men who are behind this movement realize
full well that no combination can succeed
unless general Buckner is in it. and an
nounce that they want him for second place
In spite of this fact, however, the favorite
ticket tonight is Bragg and Buckner.
The vexed question of name for the party
has been settled. 1t was decided that it would
be best for the various state organizations
to determine just what name they should use
and retain the name of National democratic
party for the general or national organiza-
ton. Secretary Wilson took Il strong
stand against the general use of the name
Jefrersonian Democracy, but claimed that
it could be employed by the local and state
organizations of the party wherever it was
Democratic Party" adopted by the late con-
ference h,~l in this city conflicted with
state laws.
The selection of senator Villas for chair
man Of the committee on resolutions Is COM
mended in all quarters. He is an old hand
at building platforms, and it is almost GER
tain that the platform will not contain an in
come tax plank. The conservative men
thought 1t was good thing to leave
out and their counSels prevailed. The plat
form will stand the strongest possible
declaration indorsing Cleveland, and the
tariff reform plank will also be direct
and explicit.

THE PROCEEDINGS.
Permanent Organization Effected
Other Business Transacted.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. Sept 2-The sound
money democratic convention reached the
stage of permanent organization and then
adjourned until tomorrow when every one
here expects to see its business finished up
promptly.
The days proceedings were marked by an
enthusiasm, n dignity. unanimity and Il
high patriotic purpose that has seldom char
acterzed political assemblages in this coun-
try. 1t is, indeed in its makeup a magniii-
cent convention. The men in it are serious
minded, earnest and fullyaware OF the respon-
sibility they are taking. There is no dispo-
sition in any quarter to allow any small diff
ferences of opinion to interfere in the least
with the grand purpose for which the con-
vention was called.
There were many marked things about
the gathering. Every mention of president
Cleveland's name was received with tumul-
tuOus applause. Not u speaker who ap-
pealed to the patriotic instincts and motives
of the men before him failed to elicit quick
and hearty response not an appeal to pre-
serve the honor and integrity of the demo-
cratic party. and to protect and conserve the
credit of the nation but what was greeted
with the widest and most fervid demonstra
tions of approval.
One of the most notable things about
the convention is the absolute wping out
of SactiOnalism. 1t was u great sight to see
men from Alabama and other southern states
wildly cheering for the Vermont delegation
when it came in to-day. and cheering again
when reference was made to the fact that
Vermont had repudiated Organism by a
majority almost as large rs the total Re-
publican vote cast for the Republican ticket
four years ago.
An ambitious band master had started in
to give the convention Il treat of a musical
character by playing the overture from
"Tannhauser,' but he had not proceeded
very far when senator Palmer OF Illinois
walked up on the platform and raped for
order. The appearance OF this veteran was
the signal for another one of the displays of
enthusiasm for which the convention Is in
deed noticeable, and it was 1890 nearly be-
fore he could proceed with his remarks. He
said
Gentlemen I have the honor for the
moment to preside over the first democratic
convention held in the year 1886. (Cheers.)
The gayel will be in my hands, however. but
moment. We are assembled here for high.
noble, patriotic purposes. Our earnest
thought Is to serve our country. And in the
sincerity of that purpose we may appeal to
the judge Of all hearts In order that we
may now appeal to the Great Master. the
Great Giver, beg You to listen to the invte

"May, the people of our two nations enjoy
the benefits Of perpetual peace.
Mr.. Cleveland replied as follows "Your
excellency, 1t gives me great pleasure to re-
ceive from your hand the personal letter
from your august sovereign and to greet you
as his personal representative. Since our
two countries became better acquainted
many incidents have occurred calculated to
increase our friendly relations and not the
least gratifying of these are the kind ex-
pressions contained in the letter Of your en-
peror and the visit to our country of his most
distinguished subject, who has been so hon
orably and prominently connected with pub
lie affairs in his own country and with all
that has been attempted in the direction of
its advancement and improvement.
''Your visit to us at this time is made more
Impressive by the thought that 1t serves to
join in one suggestion the most ancient civ
ilization of the East and the best type of a
newer civilization in the western world.
Notwithstanding the widely different char
acterstics OF the two countries, the welcome
which Is rendered you by the government
and citizens of the United States illustrates
in the strongest possible manner the kinship
of nations.
"We feel that In the arrangement of your
tour you have not allotted to your sojOurn
among lis sufficient time to gain IN adequate
observation OF all we have accomplished as
q nation.
at will not, however, escape your notice
that a rich and fertile domain has here been
quickly created by those who were assured
that they would reap where they had sown !,
that q strong and beheflcent government has
been here established by those who loved
freedom and that we have a patriotic and gem
erous people who love their government be-
cause 1t Is theirs, controlled by them, ad-
ministered for them and protected and saved
from harm by them. We heartily wish that
your stay with us may be most pleasant, and
that at Its close you may enjoy a safe and
agreeable return to your home and your
field of duty and usefulness"
During the reception everyone remained
standing 1t was quite formal. Ii was back
at the Waldorf again at 1l.45 o'clock. His
stay at the Whitney house did not last longer
than 20 minutes.

state Senate has been elected, and the House
will have lost more than dozen democrats
on its roll of 244.
Republicans are jubilant, and sound money
democrats are rejoicing with them.
The result shows that Vermont farmers
have not been caught by the free silver
talk in any appreciable number, and
that the whole mass of voters has been
aroused and alarmed by it. Sound money
democrats. have helped in tho campaign
and in the election. Soon after the
Phelps letter appeared, several demo-
cratic leaders announced their intention OF
voting the republican ticket and their action
had great influence. Some Of the rank
and file followed them and a good many
more stayed at home.
The vote for Battell silver party candidate,
was insignificant. Returns from $50 towns
out OF 244 give republican plurality of 81
