SENATOR BUTLER CHAIRMAN
He viii Preside Temporarily at the Pop
ulist Convention.
EUGENE v. DEBS CALLED UPON
In Response TO an Urgent Telegram He
Announces That He will Attend the
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Towne De-
clares Himself in Favor of Bryan.

ST. LOUIS, July 2.-The Populist mn
tionGl committee yesterday decided upon
Senator Marion Butler, of North Caro-
lima, for temporary chairman. The Sc
lection was effected without much nppar-
ent opposition, but there was an adverse
clement present which would have mani
tested itself if the committee had not been
so evidently favorable to Butler. 1t was
at first the plan of the Bryan and Sewall
advocates to put up General Weaver for
the position, but they changed at the last
moment to General Fields, Of Virginia,
who was on the presidential ticket with
General Weaver four years ago. They be-
lieved that the opposing faction would be
divided between Butler and Mr.. Hines, of
Georgia. Mr.. Hines was, however, not
placed in nomination, leaving the strnights
united upon Senator Butler. General
Fields was placed in nomination, but
when it became apparent that Hines was
out of the race Fields friends withdrew
his name and allowed Butler to be chosen
by acclamation.
1t is apparent on the eve of the conven-
ton that there will be three factions The

IN L.O.O. HOME
1t VIII be Erected at or Near the Town
of Sunbury.
The PROJECT FAYORABLY RECEIVED
A Meeting of Delegates Prom the Different
Lodges viii be Held at sunbury on
August 7, to Secure Further Assist
ance for the Project.

The following appeal, issued by Past Grand
Master 5. B. Boyer, has been forwarded to
the different lodges of the |. o. O. f., in
reference to the erection of an orphauagc at
Sunbury
We have no doubt but that all of you have
learned through your representatives to the
Grand Lodge, that permission was granted
during the last May session at Pittsburg, to
establish an Orphanage, or Home for Orphans,
at or near the city of Sunbury. The COM
mittce in charge selected Friday, August T.,
1896, at l o'clock a. m, to meet in the court
house in S%unbury for that purpose,
This will be the most important meeting in
our opinion, that will ever be held ON the sub
ject of this Orphanage. We hope to have
every representative present. Lodges that
are Mt this time undecided rs 10 the feasibility
Of our undertaking, with power to act for
the lodge, and send him to the convention
with the proper certificate. We will admit
him to our convention, but he will not be
allowed to tax part in the proceedings until
he is willing to bind his lodge by sign
ing the application for the charter.
1t is evident that some members of the order
are under a wrong impression as to the stand
ing of lodges that are not connected as mem
beers in any of the homes. We hold every
lodge should now attach itself to one of them.
The fact that they pay the 25 cent per mem
Der will not give them membership. We
admit applicants to membership in lodges on
the payment of a membership fee, and the
subsequent payment Of dues will entitle the
member to certain privileges in lodges. In
the homes for Orphans lodges are admitted
on payment Of membership fee and the pay
mqut of the subspuupnt dups tn the Grand
Lodge, which is distributed to the homes by
the Grand Lodge, and that will give certain
privileges to such lodge in the home. Volun-
tary donations to the homes rs a charity will
not secure membership.

Democrats would poll their full strength,

from the Republican party. His plan is
TO divide the electors in the various states
according TO the ratio of the Democratic
and Populist vote in those states.
The more conservative of the members
of the two extreme factions are beginning
to regard the situation as a grave one, and
there have been many informing friends
during the day looking towards getting
together on some plan like that substituted
by Senator Butler, They fear that If this
cannot be done a bolt is inevitable, what
ever the action of the convention, and this
they are exceedingly anxious TO avoid.
They express confidence that they will be
able to reach this result. The two extreme
factions each assert, however. that thev
