and Pennsylvania followed shortly after
ward. All of the remaining delegations
departed on Saturday evening, and with
the exception of the national committee
headquarters, nothing was left to-day TO
indicate that there had been any conven-
ton. Even the sign of the sergeant-at-
arms had been removed. although Colonel
Martin remained to finish up some matters
connected with closing the convention.
The silver headquarters. at the Sherman
House, were deserted. The bimetallic COM
mittee their work being accomplished dis
banded, and only those who are members
of the national committee remained over.
Hinrichsen, with his cohorts, left on Sat-
urday evening, as did also the most of
the Virginia and South Carolina delegates.
Senator Tillman and the North Carolinians,
with the Tennessee delegates, staid over
until 1890 o'clock this morning. Arkansas
left on Saturday evening. William f. Har-
rity, ex-chairman of the Democratic
tional committee, completed his labors in
connection with the management of last
weeks convention yesterday. and left for
Philadelphia on the Pennsylvania limited
at $50 p. m.
The old subcommittee held a short ses-
sian at noon in Parlor 2, Palmer House. and
arranged matters so that eX-Secretary
Sheerin, Colonel Sherley Colonel Martin
and Mr.. Conda, the architect, could settle
bills and turn the books over to the new
national committee. Colonel Martin said
he regretted exceedingly the trouble that
could not be avoided on the first day when
the doors were not opened in time for the
people TO go into the Coliseum without
waiting. and for which the blame was all
heaped his shoulders. He was not 10

onerated him. 1t was explained that the
keys to the Coliseum were not turned over
to him until nearly II o'clock instead of
at 8 a. m. when he should have received
them.
A good deal of fun was made over Colonel
Martins medical staff. yet IL seemed he
had need for it, During the convention he
said, sixty persons were given treatment
for one cause or another. A good many
women tainted. One man sustained a
broken nose, and another got his ankle
crushed. Several of the delegates were
overcome from excitement. loss of sleep
and long sessions without anything 10 eat
and were treated by the physicians in
charge.

Associated Press Dispatch.
CHICAGO, July 12.-William Jennings
Bryan, the nominee of the Democratic
party for President of the United States,
turned his back this afternoon upon states
men, politicians and eager curiosity seek
ers and went out to quiet Oakwoods Gene
terry and stood with uncovered head before
the grave of Lyman Trumbull. the
who had been his teacher and friend. When
Mr. Bryan turned away his eyes were brim-
ming with tears.
ANY distinction 1 may have gained 1
owe in great part to the man who is buried
there" he said, he turned to the car
riage and was driven back to town again.
To-day was the first opportunity Mr..
Bryan has had to rest since he started to
Chicago, over a week ago, to attend the
convention which was destined to name
him as it's candidate for President. He
spent it under the hospitable roof of the
Trumbull homestead, No. 4016 Lake ave-
nue.. The nominee recovered some of his
lost strength by sleeping until we'll towards
noon. After dinner he sat out on the vine
clad porch and looked across the blue
waters of the lake. Some of the neighbors
called and chatted with Mr.. Bryan, and
Senator Jones and the vice presidential
short visit.
George Sternsdorf, who is an old friend
of Mr.. Bryan in Nebraska, drove around
and took the candidate and his wife driy-
ing over the South-side boulevards. After
they returned Mr.. John Trumbull took Mr..
Bryan in his carriage out to Oakwoods
Cemetery, where the visit was paid TO the
grave of Lyman rrumbull. In the evening
Mr.. Bryan and his wife and the members
of the Trumbul family sat in the library
chatting
Mr.. Bryan and his wife remain az the
Trumbull residence until the departure of
their train tomorrow at 2 o'clock for Salem.
The candidate will come down town to-
morrow morning to attend the meeting of
the notification committee DIT the Palmer
House at 9 o'clock. He will then return 70
the Trumbull home and depart from the
Illinois Central depot at Thirty ninth
street. Mr.. Bryans original inlention Was
TO remain in Salem a week and take the
rest he so much needed, but he said to-
night:
Il find that 1 will only have :, day or
two to spend at Salem, although l would
like to stay much longer. From Salem L

If the Republicans can add the four States
of Michigan, Indiana. Iowa and Minnesota

are credited in the foregoing paragraph
they will lack but eight votes of a majority

States remaining from which to draw this
small number.
1t is not chasing elusive political rain

chances are more than favorable that Ken

bic to the Democrats OF the South and
Middle West was more difficult problem.
Bland was not the man. for a dozen diff
ferent reasons, but he had the strongest
boom on the ground and IL was going 10 be
difficult to defeat him. Jones suggested
Bryan at the meeting of the rconspira-
tors on Friday, and the suggestion took
well. He had co-operated with the Popu-
lists on fusion ticket in 1894. and was ac-
cepsable to them. yet what record he had
in public life was as a Democrat. Jones
understood his eloquence and understood
perfectly the emotional nature of the silver
delegates.
The "conspirators'' and the Bland
boomers worked together to have a caucus
OF silver delegates to agree on a candi-
date Monday night. but with very different
purposes. While the Bland people thought
they could control enough votes in the
caucus TO bring it TO agree on their man.
IT was the intention of the syndicate to
have Bryan make speech to the caucus
that should set it wild and stampede 1t TO
him. The caucus scheme failed for reasons
heretofore set forth in these dispatches
and the next move of the conspirators was
to have Bryan made temporary chairman
OK the convention, when he should fire off
the speech that was to nominate him. This
was agreed on as early as. Saturday, but
on Sunday the Senators were confronted
with the point that as Bryan was a con-
testing delegate. they could not with pro-
priety urge him on the national committee.
Here was an obstacle that Jones got over
without any trouble.
so much the better" he remarked, after
studying the matter over. THE nearer
that speech comes 10 the time OF making
the nomination. the more certain is the
convention to accept Bryan as the nom-
inee. We shall have complete control by
the tir,e the platform comes up and Bryan
shall close the debate
And thus ii came about that Daniel was
made temporary chairman and Bryan was
told to revise the speech he had already
prepared temporary chairman, so as to
fit the platform debate.
Even more apparent was the guiding
hand of Jones in the nomination of Sew
all, and in 1t he displayed a wise anxiety
to break in some measure the force of the
accusation of sectionalism that lies against
the work of the convention.
On the floor of the convention Jones was
as much of a quiet power as he was i'm the
councils of the senatorial "conspirators. "
To him came TillTnan, Altgeld and the
leaders of the various delegations to find
out when the session would adjourn and
what the immediate programme was, and
Chairman White did not make a move
without first obtaining the sanction oi
Jones. He was the natural selection foI
chairman of the national committee and
will have much more to do with controlling
the policy of the campaign than will Bryan
the nominee. r. Nj. S.

POpulists still Cling to Teller for
Their Nominee.

ST. LOUIS, July 12.-The impression
seems to be strong among local Popuists
that If the Democratic ticket made at Chi
cago is indorsed by the Populist national
convention TO be held here on the I'D inst,
it will only be after a hard fight.
Teller is still our mal,'' said we'll

watch what / tell you, We will nominate
him. We figure it is the best for the silver
cause to nominate Teller. He can carry the
silver Republican States and can secure
more electoral votes than Bryan. Bryan
will carry the silver Democratic States
and between Teller and Bryan we count
on securing enough electoral votes to pre-
vent McKinley'S election. IL this can be
done, the electoral votes for silver will hold
together and will select Teller or Bryan
for President"
