ST. LOUIS, July 23.-The Populist and
silver conventions were launched yester-
day, but neither made much Roadway.
The program Of the silver convention was
nli arranged In advance 1t included
simply the election of William p st.
john the New York banker, as perlnana-
nent chairman, the adoption of a IL to
platform, and the nomination Of Bryan
and Sewall but those in charge of 1t
deemed 1t good policy to go slowly, in the
belief that they might, by remaining in
session. be able to exercise an influence in
shaping things in the Populist conven-
ton. To this end they appointed com.
mlttee of seven, headed by Judge Scott, of
California, to meet with a similar COM
mittee from the Populists for the purpose
of reaching a common plan of action. The
idea was, perhaps, well conceived, although
1t is doubtful whether their course will be
fruitful of results. The silver convention
took recess at 6:l6 p. m. until today.
The anti-Bryan POpulists affect to be-
lieve that all the outside influences which
are being brought to bear upon them to
induce them to accept the nominees of the
Democratic convention are part Of the

 1 A telephone message was received from General Greeley expressing his re-
 grets at not being able to be present on
 account of illness General Greeley l has been i'll witli malarial attack for about a week, but was able to go out
 on the street last evening.
 | Besides the gentlemen mentioned above, there was large number of la l dies present, the custom of bringing wives and children 70 the reunions hav- | ing been early established by the Tenth. l This custom is most pleasing to the
 members and gives the meeting re- | fined tone often absent at regimental
 reunions.
 1 The Tenth regiment was mustered in early in the fall of 1861, the muster oc- 1 cupying the time from September 21 to | the middle of October of that year.
 The rendezvous before going to the | front was at Hartford. Three of the
 companies in the regiment, Companies A, K and c, were largely recruited in | New Haven, especially Company K,. a
 number of Company As recruits com
 ing from Derby and GCilford. Con-
 pany B was recruited at Manchester,
 D at Danbury, E at Hartford F at 1 Norwich, G at Stamford, H at New
 London and I at Greenwich.
 | After leaving Hartford the regiment | joined the Burnside expedition at An | napolis and took part in the battles of
 Roanoke Island and Newburne, these
 being the two first battles participated
 in by the Tenth. In the battle of Ro- anoke the colonel, Charles l.. Russell | of Derby, was killed and his place was l taken by Albert w. Drake of Windsor. l Colonel Drake was of rather weak constitution and died Of lung trouble soon after taking the command. He was young and brilliant officer but | could not withstand the hardships of | the campaign. Major R. w. Pettibone was next promoted to the colonelcy, but resigned early in 1862, When the regiment was mustered out its colonel l was Colonel (now GeneraD Greeley of New Haven.
 1 The Tenth participated in General Gilmore's campaign about Charleston, and was at Petersburgh. It was one of the four regiments which made the last i fight with Lee. The regiment was
 many times commended for meritorious service, and was looked upon as a reg iment to be relied upon for hazardous l undertakings.
