tthroughout the country. I wish to say
to those who are interested in knowing
my views on this important question,
that have never had the interview re-
ferred to. have not been in New York
City for several months; neither have
discussed the question with newspaper
representative in any manner or form.
The supposed interview misrepresents
me and is malicious falsehood from be-
ginning to end.
The International Association of Ma
chnists at their last convention declared
in favor of the free coinage of gold and
silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. The Ameri-
can Federation of Labor at its last three
conventions decided on the same lines,
and l could not honestly represent either
organization if the supposed interview
were true.
l am in favor of the free and unlimited
coinage of gold and silver at the ratio of
16 to l, Notwithstanding newspaper re-
ports to the contrary.
have no right to speak for others. It
is fight between the masses and the
GLASSES and have always been with the
masses and shall continue to be with
them in the future.

GOLDBUG DEMOCRATS.
Meeting Held in Chicago to Arrange
for Placing Another Gold Ticket
in the Field.

Chicago, July "a. - The committee,
appointed by the gold standard Demo-
Gratis last night to prepare and issue a
call for another convention, met at the
Auditorium to-day.
Comptroller Eckels has arrived, but
denied that he was the bearer of any mes
sage from President Cleveland.
A majority report was prepared, call
ing for convention, to be held on Sep
tember 2.
A committee of five was selected to ar
range for state convention.
The national committee is to meet at
Indianapolis on August 2 to decide on
place to hold national convention.

straightenedout and the convention tool
up the report section by section.
The minority recommendation of three
instead of one member of the national
committee from each state, after some
discussion was agreed to.
This vote was taken by states on the
adoption of the minority recommending
the nomination of vice-president before
president. The anti-Sewall delegates
lined up in favor of the minority report.
Before the vote was announced Senator
Butler and Congressman Skinner had a
hurried consultation on the platform.
Skinner then rushed back to his dele
tion. He mounted chair and said that
the vote of North Carolina had been cast
for the majority report upon the under.
standing with certain western and north
ern states that the vice-presidency would
60 to the south.
"Are you sincere?" he cried. 81 de-
mand to know, as l am empowered to
change the vote of North Carolina"
"Yes" was called from various parts of
the hall, but the cries were drowned by
chorus of "noes."
Patterson, of Colorado, called out,
"Colorado has made no pledge"
BEDLAM BROKE LOOSE.
Bedlam broke loose, band played, men
wrestled with each other and great excite
ment prevailed.
When order was restored, Congressman
Skinner again demanded absolute pledges.
Es was interrupted with cries of "vote."
The vote of North Carolina was not
needed to carry the minority report; but,
after these cries, Skinner dramatically
cast the 95 votes of North Carolina for it
amid the cheers of the anti-Sewall crowd.
The announcement of the vote: 1856 to
615 in favor of the minority report was
the signal for demonstration. The re-
port as amended was then adopted.
Gen. ]. B. Weaver, chairman of the
committee on resolutions, at 3:05 o'clock,
was recognized to read the platform as
agreed to by the committee. He said the
committee had held protracted meeting,
and, while its proceedings had been har-
monious, there was not entire unanimitY,
as Coxey, of Ohio, would present a
minority report.
The reading of the platform was fire..
quently interrupted by applause.
ADJOURNED TILL SIX P. M.
The Populist majority report on plat
form was adopted.
Nominations for vice president are now
in order.
4:35 p. m.--The Populist convention
has adjourned until p. m.

Major Wiley Missing.

Major Wiley, late of Tularosa, went to
Arizona some time ago and located, built
a cabin and was living alone. Not seeing
him for some time, the neighbors went to
the cabin and found everything all there,
but evidently the major had not beer
there for some time, and he has not been
heard of since. 1t is feared he has lost
his life some way. Major Moses F. Wiley

Texas Delegation Divided.

st. Louis.-There was row in the
Texas delegation on account of the ex-
hibition Of a Bryan picture and because
of the announcement of the refusal of
Texas to name member of the confer
ence committee. Some of the delegates
thought that the hot heads of the delega-

NATIONAL SILVER CONVENTION
Third Day Of the Great White Metal
Conference In st. Louis.

Third nay Of the Great White Metal
Conference In st. Louis.
st. Louis, July 24.-It was said by some
of the leaders of the silver convention
to-day that they would take no action un-
til the Peoples party convention adopted
platform and nominated candidates.
Then, If Bryan and Sewall we're successful,
the silver convention would indorse them,
60 over to the Peoples party convention
in body and ask to be taken into the
fold.
CALLED TO ORDER BY CHAIRMAN ST. JOHN.
It was 1O:45 O'Clock a. m. when Chair
man st. John called the silver convention
to order.
Rev. DR.. Covert led in prayer.
G. w. Baker, of California, said that the
Peoples party convention had appointed
a conference and moved that the conven-
tion defer action on platform and post
pone nominations until $3.50 p. m. The
motion prevailed.
A motion that, when tie con vention ad-
journed, it adjourn till $3.50 p. m. also
prevailed.
After number of delegates had spoken
on the silver question, Senator Stewart,
of Nevada, was called for. He said that
he went to Chicago with little hope that a
free silver platform would be adopted
He was egreeably disappointed. There
never was more patriotic band of men
on earth than the delegates who con-
trolled the Chicago convention. The
Wall street corruption fund was of nj
use.
RNTHUTIAsM FOB BRYAN.
At the mention of Bryan's name, the
delegates arose, shouted, cheered and
flourished umbrellas and fans.
Senator Stewart said that Bryan's con.
vention speech was the greatest Grafton
