on this side of the bay. Nearly every body
interested in the fight just ended, with the
exception of John Daggett, resides in Oak
land. This being so, the impression has
been created that there has been great
revival and many conversions in the
Democratic cause. Such, however is not
true. There are fewer Democrats in Ala
media County to-day than there were two
years ago, but those that are left have
taken advantage OF every opportunity to
attract attention to themselves, but this
has not in any way added to the popu-
larity of the Jeffersonian doctrines in this

SILVER DELEGATES CAUCUS.
A Plan Adopted For Conferences
Among the Delegates.

Chicago, ILL.,, July 3.-The silver
delegates In the city held brief eau
Gus at the Sherman House tonight to
take into consideration the advisabiIi-
ty of naming a man for temporary
chairman, of the convention, but post
poned action until Monday.
The only affirmative action taken
consisted in the adoption of a plan
suggested by Hon. o. w. Powers, of
Utah, to bring the silver delegates to-
gether in such numbers as TO make
conference among the delegates possi-
BILE and render them thorough with
out making the meetings so large as
to be intractable. The plan consists
in the appointment of member from
each silver delegation with power to
act for the State, to meet and confer
with the steering committee consist
ing of Senators Jones, Daniel and Tur-
pie and Governors Stone and Altgeld.
The members of this committee will
be expected to poll their respective
delegations on all questions and to
be the representatives of their various
States in the proceedings of the silver
committee. This committee is to con-
tinue in existence until the adjourn
ment of the convention.
Ex-Gov. T. j. Jarvis of North Caro-
lima; Senator Benjamin Tillman, of
South Carolina, and p. J->Otey, OF Vir-
ginia, are members of this committee.
INDIANA rs AGAINST TT.
Chicago, H., July 3.-The Indiana
delegation held a protracted meeting
tonight and took unexpected action
in opposition to the plan Of holding
caucus of silver delegates, at which
the nominee is to be chosen. Speeches
were made denouncing the proposed
caucus as undemocratic after which
resolution was unanimously passed
declining to attend or be bound by the
action of any caucus or conference for
that purpose.
As the Indiana delegation is con-
Quoting the candidacy of Gov. Mat
thews the effect of the resolution is to
withdraw participation on the part of
Gov Matthews friends in the proposed
caucus.

delegates to the convntion or by men
who had come here to work against
free silver" After it was ascertaiued
that those present were entitled to
remain, the discussion of the situation
began. All the proceedings were con
Quoted in executive session as those
present announced that they wished
to formulate a programme
Mr.. Whitney made the opening
speech and was followed by Mr.. Hill
The conference which at first looked
as if it might be brief showed signs
before it had been in session an hour
of being protracted one. Senator
Hill and Mr. Whitney bat sounded the
tocsin and the others eagerly fell into
line. Judge Moran, of Illinois, made
an impassioned speech and was heartily
applauded when he said that the silver
following in Illinois was only the
lovers fad, but it remained for John
r. Fellows, of New York, to feel the
real pulse of the assembled men in
pointed way. Mr.. Fellows made no
speech of platitudes. From the first
he bitterly attacked the silver men
and the movement. He declared it to
be against the principle of Democracy
and termed it the fad of wild fana
tics" and then closed and said:
eff the dogma of repudiation is
incorporated into the platform Of the
Democratic party I must leave that
party and forever. As have said, am
a Democrat. have voted and worked
and expended my energy with and for
the party. have been as faithful and
consistent to its principles as the par
ty has been, but while I have always
expected to remain a Democrat, I can
not, gentlemen, accept the degreda-
tion that the following of this silver
fallacy means"
A motion was then adopted to the
effect that all the gold men meet every
morning at 10 o'clock at the Palmer
House to arrange for missionary work
and that a conference similar to that
held tonight be convened every even
ing at the auditorium at o'clock. The
meeting then adjourned.
Twice during the meeting Senator
Hill of New York, was called for, but
declined TO make any remarks, saying
that he did not believe in crossing
bridges until he reached them.
Immediately the room rang{with APP
plause and the temper of the. delegates
was displayed.

it's impression. Judge Mcconnell, Of
Chicago, whom Governor Altgeld sug-
gested as a candidate ten days ago,
has espoused the cause of the Colorado
Senator, and it is an open secret that
a number of the Democratic silver Sen
otors like Jones, of Arkansas; Harris,
Of Tennessee, and others (some of
whom are publicly supporting other
candidates), are trying TO manipulate
things from the inside in Teller's in
terest. To-day they seemed to make
considerable headway., and many of
the most prominent silver leaders were
quoted as in favor of Teller.
1t has even been said that John Il.
Mclean. of Ohio, also. is here at the
head of the Ohio delegation with As
votes at his back, and himself in the
field, was for Teller. But out among
the Democratic advance skirmiShers
and the delegates who have put in an
appearance, there was a most en-
phatic expression against taking as
a candidate any but a Democrat who
had won his spurs. The Teller talk
induced the managers of the Bland
boom to issue a public statement de-
claring that if the Democratic conyen-
tion nominated Teller no one would
give him warmer support than Richard
i. Bland, as he was recognized as an
uncompromising champion of free sill
yer, and, il elected, would subordinate
all the other aims to accomplish il.
The sting was in the tail, however,
when it protested against the nominl
ton of any but a Democrat by Dem
ocratic convention.
'Silyer Dick" Bland undoubtedly has
the popular enthusiasm thus far. His
managers are pushing his boom with
great yigor, and are relying largely on
popular sentiment. They have per-
feeted details for a great demonstra-
ton Monday night as the climax of
their campaign. They will parade the
streets wIbh bands and flaming torch
es and wind up with a mass-meeting
on the lake front.
The Boies boomers are also active
They have placarded the hotels with
autographs Of the Iowa candidate to
look at by day and by night, and cleo
tric lights keep the name before the
crowds. But it Will not be until Sun
day that the Boies boomers will arrive
in force. Special trains will bring them
to the seat of the fray
The Matthews boomers, from In
diana, are playing another waiting
game. BY the rivalries and jealousies
hat are being developed. they hope
To profit.
The friends Of Blackburn and Me-
Lean, the other two silver candidates,
have not. as yet, done much work,
They. too. are waiting such oportuni-
ties as may present themselves. but
neither is as vet considered in any way
Formidable
The COLO standard men are not de-
voting much consideration to the ques-
tion Of who shall be put forward TO
oppose the silver candidates. The pic
ture of Governor Pattison. of Pennsyi-
vania, was nailed to the wall of the
Democratic headquarters to-day by the
direction of Chairman Harrity. and the
general impression is shat the gold
standard strength Will be concentrated
upon him.
