Parry in rather an compromising po-

like a wild monkey, but despite her

Illinois For Bland.

CHICAGO, July 6.-The forty-eight
votes of Illinois will be cast solidly
for Bland. 1t was so decided at a
caucus of the delega ton today. The
hn2l vote on the question stood 43 for
Bland, l for Stevenson and 4 absent.
OF the absentees three are pronounced
Bland men and the fourth a gold
standard man.
Early in the day an effort was made
to check the Bland movement in Hi
nois. a boom was started in the in
terest of Chief Justice A. NJ. Craig of
the supreme court of Illinois,
In calling the caucus to order Cover
nor Altgeld said that the Democratic
party was about to face one of the
most grave and momentous crises in
the history of American politics. 1t
was time when all true Democrats
must come out and declare their prin-
ciples. Unity of action was absolutely
necessary. Anything else meant de-
feat 1t was no time for casting COM
plimentary votes. A candidate must
be agreed upon whom the majority
believed should be elected, and than
no pains should be spared to see that
he headed the ticket. The sentiment
of the governor was heartily ap-
plauded
EX-Congressman George w. Fithian
offered resolution to the effect that
the Illinois delegation should cast
their solid vote for Bland. Ex-Con-
gresham Charles K Ladd spoke
against the adoption of the resolution.
He believed it would be much better
for Illinois to declare for an Illinoisian,
and suggested the name of Chief JUS
tice A. NJ. Craig of the supreme court.
Harry Donovan Of Chicago opposed
the resolution because he did not think
Bland would be strong man in Hi
nois. He believed Boies of Iowa to be
the strongest candidate
Ex-Congressman Williams spoke for
the resolution. He believed Bland to
be the logical man for the place
A substitute was offered demanding
an informal ballot. The substitute was
adopted and the informal ballot re-
suited as follows: Bland &c; Steven

The Situation From the Gold view

CHICAGO, July 6.-The situation in
the eastern gold standard camp has
crystallized far enough to enable one
to get more Of a, settled idea of plan
than has hitherto prevailed. The gold
men will not, as a body, leave the
convention and it is doubtful if any in
dividual members will take that course.
The leaders are all against it, although
1t is believed that Mr.. William c. Whit
ney would be pleased to see another
convention with a gold standard plat
form.
The most radical action that the gold
standard men will take has practically
been settled and that is to follow the
plan adopted by the Montana delega-
ton in the national Republican con-
vention in st. Louis-to remain in the
convention with the notification that
they will act in their individual states
as to support of the platform and ma
tional ticket, as the Democrats of their
states desire
But even this later proposition is
tempered and the action may not
take place if the silver majority does
not Unfortunately trample upon the
rights and privileges of the gold mi
nority. In these resolves the gold men
say they are backed by the unbroken
Democratic principles of majority rule.
1t has baen rumored that Boies has
been dickering for the eastern vote,
and that few silver states who have
had Vice-President Stevenson in mind
are looking to New York and other
is not in this alleged dicker, remaining
faithful to Pattison.
