Syracuse. N. Y, Aug. 80.-syracuse Is

meet In convention tomorrow to select
sixty-eight district delegates and four dell
egates at large to attend the sound money
convention OF the national democratic
party, which meets at indianapolis on
Wednesday next.
It was the opinion OF many Of the Lead
ers tonight that the convention. after it
elects the delegates and adopts a plat
form should adjourn until few days af-
ter the democratic state convention at
Buffalo on Sept. i6. when. this convention
can reassemble and select the presden-

Gratis for this state. This will give the
delegates an opportunity to ascertain
how the regular democratic state
convention Will perform its work
