Chicago July 5.-The crisis in the ma
tional democratic prospects will probably
be reached tomorrow. 1t may be precip-
ilated by the decision Of the national COM
mlttee as to the temporary chairman of
the convention. There is we'll grounded
belief tonight that the sound money ma
jority of that committee will recommend
to the convention that Senator David B.
lIll of New York be the temporary chair
man.
The knowledge that this was the inten-
ton of the committee is said to furnish
1he explanation of Mr.. Hills absence from
The gold mems mass meeting last night.
1fe has thus escaped the denunciations
which the silver men at the Sherman
House have lavished with unsparing
tongues to-day upon ex-Gov. Flower, Sen
afor Gray Mr.. MacVeagh and District
Aftorney Fellows for their position in that
Gathering. There is an openly expressed
desire on the part Of the silver men to
1orce the fight from the beginning upon
re temporary Craftsmanship, and George
Nred Williams of Massachusetts, one of
4he latest claimed accessions to the silver
1anks, is spoken of as a desirable eastern
nan to put forward in antagonism to
Senator Hill. The sound money men are
#illing and Senator Hill is even said to
eager to have the fight opened upon
tbs issue. They assert that to antag-
eHlize the recommendation of a national
epmm!ttee in the matter of the temporary
&fganization would be such a breach of
1emocratic tendencies and usages, that
~ democratic convention could reasona-
~ be expected to sanction it by it's de-
Nberate vote.
