sCHEMING FOR CONTROL.
Plans of Silver Men to Gain the
Necessary Two-Thirds
Majority,

CHICAGO, ILL, July 1.-The recon-
noiter to-day of the skirmish guard of the
silver forces upon the outposts of the
National Democratic committee. as
planned by its subcommittee, was vari.
ously viewed by the participants after the
former had retired to it's own camp. Ac-
cording to Chairman Harrity. the visiting
delegation, composed of Senators Turpie.
Daniels, Jones and Governors Stone and
Altgeld, simply fenced for points," And,
according to Governor AitgeId and Sena-
tor Daniels. the fencing was entirely salts
factory to the silver side. At least one of
their colleagues, however, was inclined to
regard the outcome as draw, with the
indications favorable to the silver men
getting the worst of it when final conclu-
sions were tried with the National COM
mittee next Monday.
The action of the Illinois delegation in
determining to lead the attack for the
abrogation of the two-thirds rule was n
fruitful topic of discussion, and during the
day it developed that Governor Alteelds $
scheme was in danger from an unexpected
source and that Michigan rather than IIli-
nois might become the pivotal State and
WELD the balance of power in the conyen
ton. The. two delegates from the Fifth
District of that State. William F. Nc
knight and George P. Hummer. both
active free silverites, were among the Wis.
itors at headquarters and conferred at
length with the members of the executive
committee.
The situation in the Wolverine State is
that while fourteen out of the twenty-six
delegates are silverites, the delegation is
instructed for gold and bound to that
standard by the unit rule. It is proposed,
however, to precipitate fight
on the refo rm of that rule in
advance of any action on the two
thirds issue. In the event of the unit rule
being declared invalid, there will be no
necessity for the substitution Of a majority
vote for the two-thirds vote, for the silver
votes OF the Wolverine State would give
that side the necessary nominating major
ity and one or two to spare. This was the

earnestness. Ibis name was on my lips
l regard him as one of the ablest of our
National lawmakers, and along with James
6. Mcguire. California is ably represented
in the Congressional halls of the Nation.
Either of these men would be accepta BILE
to me, and l think the convention would
make no mistake in nominating either of
them.
II believe L am competent to size up
a really big man when l see him in the
House or Senate at Washington, and let
me tell you, young man, it takes a big
man to make an impression in Congress.
A lightweight may come there, make a
speech, be listened to with some attention
and the next day be forgotten, but the
man of brains who is there for a purpose,
who sympathizes with the people, who
works and votes in their lnterests--a man
of knowledge, character and conviction
compels the American parliament to listen
to him and to be influenced by his
counsel"
Captain Evans, chairman of the Iowa
delegation is confident that Boies will be
nominated. He ADDS that in case the
Governor becomes the candidate he will
carry Iowa by $4,000 majority despite the
fact that the State has long been Repub-
lican stronghold. He does not think that
the action of the trades unions in prepar-
ing a labor petition in opposition to
the candidacy of Boies will influence
the convention one way or the other.
Governor Altgeld's anarchistie following,
however, believes otherwise. 1t is be-
lieved that this movement is one of Alt
geld's to beat the Iowa statesman out of
the nomination. The enmity of the former
toward Boies is attributed to the fact tha.
the Iowan made speech in which he up
held the position of President Cleveland
in sending Federal troops to Chicago dur
ing the great railroad strike. Altgeid is
making all he possibly can out of this in
cident.
al do not think" said Captain Evans,
"that Governor AItgeld will openly fight
Governor Boies for the Presidential nomi-
nation. They have always been good
friends, and do not see why they should
not continue to be. Governor Boies has
always been friendly to labor, and that
that element should want to defeat
him for the nomination seems to be
very unreasonable. The delegates from
Iowa feel that Governor Boes will
be nominated, but in case he is not
chosen by the convention the ticket will
be loyaIly supported in our State, regard
less of the man who is at it's head. We
are feeling very hopeful, but are doing no
loud shouting for our candidate just yet.
The thousands who will pour into the city
from Iowa on Monday and Tuesday will
do all the roofing as they say here in
Chicago, that will be required. The South
VIII be solid for the ticket"
With the possible exception of Mary
land" suggested a delegate from Missouri
es, and Delaware is q little doubtful"
observed a second.
"And there are some doubts about West
Virginia, don't you think, Captain Pr in
quired tall southerner.
Captain Evans admitted that these
States were probably little shaky from
Democratic standpoint. In fact, he made
a number of concessions to the RepubIi-
cans. and as Iarose to leave the room a

MONTREAL, QUE, July 1. = The
London (Eng.) correspondent of the Star
cables that he learns from sources in close
touch with the Hon. Wilfred Laurier, that
despite Mr.. Laurier's tentative acceptance
of Mr.. Joseph Cham berlain's zollverein
proposal. the first act of the next Canadian
Liberal Ministry will be TO send a COM
mission to Washington to negotiate a
treaty of reciprocity, and also that it will
petition the home Government for per-
mission to appoint a Canadian agent at
Washington. The correspondent adds
that no one there doubts that the demand
from Canada for discrimination against
British goods and in favor of the United
States would give the worst possible blow
to the growing cause of imperial unity.
