DAISY SILVER PIN.
An Emblem to Be Worn by Advocates
Of the Sixteen to One Financial
POIicy-Design to Be Patented.

Washington, June PA design has
been submitted to the patent Office and
a copyright asked thereon for a floral
emblem to be orn by the adherents Of
the free silver plan. The final issue of
the papers has been made, but under
the rules Of the patent office the de-
sign is sufficiently protected to prevent
misuse.
The emblem Is in the form Of a COM
mon field daisy, with sixteen petals,
each numbered on the tip from one to
sixteen, and the yellow center marked
with figure one. The designer claims
that this exactly expresses the idea
Of the silver mems motto-that Of 16
to /, with colors symbolizing both met
ais.
The adoption Of the scheme Is under
consideration by the leading silver men
now in Washington and a determined
effort will be made to get resolution
through the Chicago convention for the
adoption of the button by the adher-
ents of the party and to make 1t as Of
ficial in it's character as the pampas
grass emblem which Mr.. Hanna sug-
gests be adopted as the official floral
emblem Of the Republicans, and which
the silver men claim does not convey
any idea but that of the national colors
red white and blue-and grows in
but one section of the country, while
the flower that is their emblem grows
from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The
daisy emblems will be out in few days.

no particular candidate for the presi-
dency will be endorsed.
Perhaps the most significant features
of the gathering of the Democratic clans
for tOmorrow's state convention Is the
strong under current of sentiment in
favor of the endorsement of Senator
Teller as presidential candidate upon
an out and out free coinage platform by
the national convention at Chicago.
There is no question THAI were Teller
resolution introduced toroOrrowit wou d
receive the support of quite a respect
able following. but the suggestion Is an
tagonized by the Altgeld machine, which
is in favor of nominating a straight out
silver Democrat. The state for dele
gate-at-large as agreed upon. is headed
by the governor himself with Secre-
tary Henricksen, Judge Sam p. Nc
Connell, Chicago. and General Lewis b.
Parsons, of Florida, as his associates.
The latter is eighty years old and has
a very creditable war record. For a
quarter Of a century he has lived in re-
tirement, farming and preaching free
silver and proposes to take the national
stump in the coming campaign. Thom-
as II. Gahan, of Chicago, has been slated
to succeed National Committeeman
Benjamin T. Gable.
The platform will. in the main, be de-
voted to state affairs, the national
planks being confined to declarations
for free coinage and a revenue tariff.

Big War Vessels Are Being Made Ready
For the Sea.
NO SUNDAY SERVICE AT BROOKLYN

peditiOn to Cuba.

Washington, June 22.-The suspen-
sion Of Sunday service at the Brooklyn
navy yard yesterday and the contin-
uance of work on some Of the war
vessels there during the day, which
gave rise to rumors that Admiral
Bunce's squadron was being made
ready for immediate sea service in
Cuban waters was explained In a satis-
factory manner at the navy department
this afternoon. The cruiser New York,
the flagship of the squadron, went into
the dry dock at Brookly Saturday for
cleaning and some minor repairs. That
date was selected for docking on ac-
count Of the prevailing high tide and as
1t will be necessary to have all the work
finished so that she can leave the dock
tomorrow or next day before the tide
recedes her sailors were kept busy all
day yesterday. 1t is said at the depart
msnt that II the New York does not
leave the dock within day or two, she
will be unable to get out for another
month.
Although the dispatches from New
York do not say so 1t Is believed at the
department that work on the construc-
ton of the unfinished monitor Puritan
also went on Sunday. This work was
delayed for nearly three months ow-
ing to the differences between Naval
Constructor Bowels and Commander
Sperry, the latter In charge Of the Puri-
tan's ordnance. Secretary Herbert was
not aware Of the full extent Of the de-
lay until recently and he ordered work
to be resumed and hastened. The Puri-
tan's construction force is now working
overtime and probably were kept busy
during yesterday.
No orders indicating prospective hos
tilities with Spain have been issued to
Admiral Bunce. He Is concentrating
all his energies TO have his fleet ready
for the regular summer practice cruise
by July Is.

sion. Judge John Hopper, a Democrat
was the first speaker. After paying a
high compliment to the candidate for
vice president and his career in Pater-
son, he introduced Mayor Braun, also a
Democrat. The latter said that MrI
Hobart was worthy of all the honors
that could be bestowed upon him. Gov
ernor John w. Griggs followed in a
brief address. He said that he had
known Mr.. Hobart for thirty years and
was positive that If he was elected vice
president none in this city would re-
joice more over his election than those
of the opposite parties.
When Mr.. Hobart advanced to the
front of the platform which was heavily
laden with floral pieces. the audience
went wild with enthusiasm, the women
cheering more Justify than the male
portion Of the assemblage. Mr.. Hobart
confined his remarks to the city and
people Of Paterson and said that he
woud rather have the esteem and conf
dence of the people, such as was mani
tested tonight than any office within the
gift Of any political organization.
At the conclusion Of his speech he
quoted the following from Robert Burns:
The bridegroom may forget the bride who
was made his welded wife yester'e en-.
The monarch may forget the crown that
on brow in honor hath been,
The mother may forget the babe that
smiles SO sweetly on her knee,
But I'll remember Glencarn and all that
thou hast done for me-

was reputed to be the possessor Of
considerable wealth, which fact in
duced the commission Of the crime.

accomplices, was convicted of murder
in the first degree on February 1, and
