THREE-sIDED FUSION.
1T VIII Be INDUCED I'm by Michigan
Parties.

DETROIT Mich. July 28.-The Democratic
state central committee this afternoon de-
clfned to accept the resignation of its chair
man, Elliott G.. Stevenson, and called the
state nominating convention to be held at
Bay City, Aug. %. Although Chairman Ste
venson, who is the law partner of Don M.
Dickinson, has been a radical advocate of the
gold standard policy, and still emphatically
seating some of the Michigan gold standard

cepts the platform and candidates decreed by
the national convention. and declares that,
being Democrat, he will do his whole duty
In waging a vigorous campaign in Michigan
for the success of the party's nominees and
its declared policies. 1t is arranged that the
POpulist and the new union silver party
conventions will be held in Bay City on the
same day as the Democratic convention, and
1t is expected that fusion of the three par
ties ticket will be accomplished. This
is considered to be a necessity by the silver
men, as state law enacted by the last Re
publican legislature requires that the name of
any candidate cannot appear on more than
ticket.
The opposition to retaining Chairman Ste
venson was not especially strenuous In the
meeting, although some prominent free sill
yer men on the outside declared that silver
men who voted for Stevenson were misrep-
resenting their constituents, and went home
greatly chagrined at the result Mr.. Steven
son had previously expressed his willingness
to resign in favor of W. r. Burt, of Saginaw,
or Fred A. Baker, of Detroit. Both the lat

Stevenson's resignation. motion to refer it

afterwards withdrawn, and the resignation

LINCOLN, Neb., July 28.-There is
a Well defined rumor afloat in this city
today that Nebraska will present an

ing Morton, secretary Of agriculture.

more at Arbor Lodge, his farm home
near Nebraska City. 1t had been re-
ported that he was here to check the

ally reported in this city today that he
is here to pave the way to a presiden-
tial nomination.

gates to the national convention de-
c1ded upon at the recent conference
held in Chicago Mass meetings are to
be held in the various counties of the
state on Aug. 3, to select delegates to
the state convention.
This was decided upon at a well at
tended conference at the board of
trade hall today, at which prominent
Democrats from all over the state were
present. Chairman George M. Davis,
in calling the meeting to order, stated
that in the opinion of sound money
Democrats Of Kentucky the real party
had no organization, either in the state
or in the country, and the pressing
business before them lay in the forma-
ton of thorough organization in Ken
lucky. Prior to the state convention
the machinery of the party would be
conducted by a committee appointed
from the congressional districts. Hon.
Charles r. Long, who until recently
was chairman of the regular Demo-

chosen chairman, and Judge J. c.

of the congressional districts showed
that, with the exception Of the second,
all were represented.

HILL AGAINST 1T.
He VIII Not Support the Chicago
Ticket.

Ticket.
NEW YORK, July ga personal
friend of Senator Hills. a prominent
Democrat, and the head of a big cor
poration controlling millions of dol
lars, is responsible for the statement
that, owing to the action of the Populist
convention at st. Louis, the senator has
decided that his best interests lie in
Identifying himself with the gold third
convention Democrats. Meanwhile
the split In the ranks Of the Democracy
is growing. Tammany's executive
committee will meet on Friday to ar
range the details for ratifying the
Bryan-Sewall ticket. This is the state
ment made by Senator Hills friend:
Mr.. Hill has been between two fires
from both factions of the party for
some time. He couldn't indorse the
Chicago platform, nor could he advo-
cate the election of any candidate who
stood upon it. The st. Louis Populist
convention only served to widen the
breach between the sound money and
silver wings of the party, making it
impossible to bridge it, as the Western
Democrats had practically affiliated
with the Populists in every thing but
in name. Senator Hill may lust now
possibly deny that he has decided To
support a third ticket, but you will
find that when the Democratic state
convention meets, Mr. Hill will be
against the Bryan ticket"
Senator Hill himself continues nom
committal and the state committee
which met at the Hoffman house at
noon today, merely decided to call the
convention without indicating any line
of policy. This method is said to be
for the purpose Of waiting for some
thing to turn up" in the near future.
That is to say, it will give the Cleye-
land men chance to get their third
ticket in the field in the meantime.
