Visitors-TwO Days Session.
The advance guard for the conference
began arriving early yesterday. and the in
dications point TO a large attendance not
only of members of the provisional COM
mittee, but of distinguished Democrats out
side its membership So far as reported to
the executive committee the national COM
mittee will have thirty-five and possibly
thirty-nine States represented in its men,
bership, as follows:

Aside from these Maine. Louisiana. Ar
kansas and Delaware are expected to send
representatives. though their names have
not been forwarded. New Jersey yester-
day telegranhed that she would send no.
body to the meeting. but would send dele
gates to the convention. Thus forty of the
forty-five States will probably be repre-
sented i'm September.
The meeting of the committee will be held
at the Commercial Club. beginning at 2
O'Clock this afternoon. and it is not likely
that the COMMITTEES will at this session de-
termine anything. further than the ques-
tion of whether or not TO call a conven-
ton. The situation in each State ex-
planned by it's representatives will be care
fully canyassed before conclusion on this
subject is reached Then if it is deter
mined to call a convention the time and
place will probably be left to be deter
mined at a session Saturday morning
While these sessions of the committee will
not be opened TO the public not only the
committeeman but all of the sound money
Democrats who have come TO the city will
be invited in and their views consulted
If it is determined to call a convention
which seems entirely likely, Indianapolis
will make strong plea for the gathering
The joint committee of the Commercial
Club and the Board of Trade will guaran-
tee the expenses of the gathering and will
make a good showing of the city's capacity
1t has also been invited to come to Mime
apolis. Detroit. Louisville ana Chicago. but
the choice seems to lie between this city
and Chicago.
