feeble, but summoning their remain

and pleasure. A large number of
them carried sticks for support. and
many were compelled to use umbrel-

the sun. On the backs of the march

coats, old canteens and knapsacks.
Several darkies, true to their old mas

The Teller Combine Still
Actively at Work for tho
Colorado BOlter.

CHICAGO, July On the very eve of
The Democratic national convention,
the entangled situation exhibits no
change in condition or candidates..
Bland leads with a strength that
grows as the country delegates re-
sentfully come in and declare that
This is Democratic convention and
we want Democratic candidate"
Illinois and Texas were among the
States which formally declared for
him to-day. There is really no other
candidate Of his own political house
hold whose position is comparable to
his. The entire field of Democratic
aspirants have not united as much
strength as he has sing;y. Considered
separately the several minor candi-
dacies present such appearance of
weakness as to make the boom of Nc
Lean even appear even respectable.
Tellers shadow is the greatest in
strument of dangerous menace to
Bland. The senatorial cabal has not
abandoned endeavor. 1t is not the
Teller purpose to have his name pre-
dates will be, with formal oratOry
and loud declaration. but rather to SO
deadlock the convention that his NOM
ination shall appear to offer the one
safe avenue tC victory.
The old fashioned Democratic del
egates. however. say uncompromis-
ingly: IF these Republicans and Pop
ulists are really in favor of free silver
they'll vote for Bland. And if they
don't vote for Bland it is Il sign that
they are not sincere in their support
of free silver" That is the answer
that they doggedly make, and they
adhere to it in action.
Governor Pattison is the only gold
standard candidate who will be pre-
sented to the convention, and those
gold standard delegates who vote at
all. some of them being opposed to
taking even SO much of part In the
nomination of the candidate. are ex-
pected to vote for him, unless it
should be deemed advisable to use
part of the gold standard vote as
make-weight between the silver can
didates
To-day it is said that the elan of
the gold men is not to walk ont of the
convention, but to remain until the
close. Then, when the silver men
have captured everything and adj
Journed, a conference will be held and
arrangements maize for convention
some weeks later of anti-siiver Demo-
Gratis for the purpose of putting in
nomination a man whom they can
support. OF course if the silver men
go to the Extreme of turning out the
gold delegates in Michigan and cap
turing that State, bolt may be imme-
dlatcly precipitated, but the conven-
tion to be held to select gold candi-
date is not likely to be FASTENED by
an actual bolt of the convention.

Texas representing the gold contin-
gent IN that state decided by "a full
vote this morning not to apply for ad-
