WASHINGTON, Aug. 2o-The populist
and silver party national executive
committees yesterday arranged to open
their headquarters In Wormley's hotel,
adjoining those Of the democratic con-
gressionai committee and the branch
headquarters OF the national demo-
cratic committee. This will place all
the silver headquarters under one roof
and enable the respective managers to
work In harmony. Vice Chairman Ste
vens, of the silver party committee,
and Secretary Diffendorfcr will! be In
charge of the silver headquarters
George Kecney will have charge Of the
organization OF the silver clubs. II Is
expected that the silver committee will
furnish the populist committee with n
large amount Of literature, rs the lat
ter committee, like the democratic
committee, probably will be hampered
q great deal for want of funds. Sena-
tor Faulkner, chairman Of the demo.
cratic congressional committee, speak
ing of the lack of funds last night did
not hesitate to say that the sources OF
revenue in past campaigns, principally
In New York city, had not and would
not respond and that the committee
vould In ca IN deno,Al nm small contri.
buttons from the people.
Chairman Butler, of the populist
committee, was asked the following
oucs,ions last pigbt.

Senator Butler was asked what ef-
feet this announcement would have
upon fusion In Kansas, where the pop
uiists took the state ticket and the
democrats the electoral ticket, but he
declined to 90 into specific details,
saying that his announcement related
to the general policy of the committee.
The statement of Mr.. Butler was said
to be the unanimous expression of the
committee.
