CHICAGO, July Sit is matter of
surprise to some of the free silver men
who walked out of the convention at ST.
Louis to find that there are delegations
from the west which might naturally be
supposed to be for Teller, who are not
for him at all. This is notably the case
in the delegations from Oregon, Washing
ton and Montana, and one of the con-
testing delegations from Nevada. The
majority of the arrivals from these states
are for Bland, except that Oregon seems
to prefer Pennoyer for first choice. The
silver men in, the Washington delegation
are for Bland.

determined to take control at the start
and unless the selection is satisfactory
10 them they viii contest it on the
floor and insist on choosing their own
man. Indeed the silver senators have
already settled upon William J. Bryan
Of Nebraska, for temporary chairman,
and Senator Harris. of Tennessee. for
permanent chairman. Mr. Bryan. who
has been dubbed the boy orator of the

expected TO sound the keynote of the

side over its deliberations. There is

JUDGE POWERS or UTAH

has submitted the following draft of
tariff plank:
I'VE favor the imposition of duties to
meet the demand of the government
for revenue, such duties to be so adj
justed as to operate equally throughout
the country and not discriminate
against any classes or sections.
Judge Powers expresses the opinion
that a declaration OF this character
will be satisfactory to the west ana
also meet all the demands of the stu
alton and of Democratic faith. It
was taken substantially from the re-
port made by Secretary Walker and
embodies the principles on which the
Walker tariff is based.

home from spun yarn she travelled from
She was evidently cotemporary o, the
Glasgows. Paxtons, and others OF the
generation Of residents along North -1ver
Who, at a ripe old age, passed away some
thirty years ago, and whose children are
now the old people Of that section.
Up to ten years ago she posse 'sed her
faculties well, and then her second sight
and her hearing failed. Her intelligence
never lessened. and the story OF Isaac
and Esau Is recalled by her grandchll-
dren when they relate that when they
visited her she made them come close,
and by feeling them with her hands de-
termined who they were.
She married BARLEY Camden, who died
some thIrty-eight years ago. Well aged.
She reared nine children. four Of whom
survive her. She Is also survived by
many grandchildren and great-grandchll-
dren.
For the past three years she was con-
fined to her bed, but always held the

an earnest Christian. and In early life
was a Baptist, and later became a Dun
kard. Her maiden name was Jones

NEW YORK. December 1.-THE stock
market was duller than ever to-day ana
even the professionals displayed only
languid interest IN speculation Consider
able disappointment was manifested be-
fore the favorable government crop re-
port failed TO stimulate business. The
only reason assigned for the dulness is
the prevailing uncertainty in regard to
the action Of Congress on the Cuban ques-
ton. It being feared that resolutions
may be introduced that would upset
the calculations of the bulls, il they
should start into a campaign at this
time.
The traders were much mixed I'm their
views. Some Of them bid up the prices
for certain shares, while others succeed
