DEMOCRATIC SILVER MEN.
Call for q Meeting of ''Steering Com
mittee" at Chicago.

mittee" at Chicago.
Washington, June 17.-Senator Jones
of Arkansas, who heads the Arkansas
delegation to the Chicago convention,
and who is one of the leading men in
the silver movement, has invited each
silver delegation to the convention to
send one representative to Chicago to
meet in conference there on Tuesday,
June 80, one week prior to the assem-
bling of the democratic national con-
vention. This body of men will be in
the nature of a steering committee"
will meet delegates upon their arrival
and have general charge of the inter-
ests of the silver forces at Chicago
One of the objects of the early meet
ing of this conference is to watch the
action of the executive committee of
national democratic committee and the
full committee itself, so that no action
may be taken by them adverse to the
interests of the silver forces. Senator
Jones' purpose is to leave no point un-
guarded by which the silver forces may
receive setback by any action of the
anti-silver contingent of the party.

CLEVELAND'S VIEWS
Does Not Believe the Democracy
Will Adopt Free Silver.
WOULD CAUSE INJURY TO THE PARTY
Every Great Interest OF the Country
Would BE Involved in Disaster
Anxious That No Mistake
Shall BE Made.

Washington, June 17.-President
Cleveland last evening made the follow.
ing reply to reporter of the New
York Herald, who asked of the presi-
dent statement concerning the demo-
cratic situation. Mr.. Cleveland said:
81 have made no figures as to the
probable action of delegates already
chosen to the democratic national con
vention, but l refuse to believe that
when the time arrives for deliberate
action there will be engrafted upon
democratic creed demand for the
free, unlimited and independent coin
age of silver. cannot believe this
because know the democratic party
is neither unpatriotic nor foolish and
because it seems SO clear to me that
such a course will inflict a very
great injury upon every interest of our
country, which it has been the mission
of democracy to advance, and will re-
suit in lasting disaster to our party
orga nization. There is little hope that
as means of success this free silver
proposition, after it's thorough discus
sion during political campaign, will
attract ajority of the voters of the
country. 1t must be that many of the
illusions influencing those now relying
upon this alleged panacea for their ills
will be dispelled before the time comes
for them to cast their ballots which
will express their sober second
thoughts. The adoption by the de-
mocracy of this proposition would, I
believe, give to our opponentsS an ad-
vantage both in the present and fu-
ture which they do not deserve.
Must Avert Decentralization.
"My attachment to true democracy
is so strong that consider it's success
as identical with the promotion of the
country's good. This ought sufficiently
to account for my anxiety that no mis-
take be made at our party convention.
In my opinion no effort should be
spared to secure such action of the
delegates as will avert party demorali-
zation, 1t is place for consultation
and comparison of views and those
democrats who believe in the cause of
sound money should there be heard and
be constantly in evidence. A cause
worth fighting for is worth fighting
for to the end. If sound money demo-
Gratis suppose there is danger of a mis-
take being made such danger should
stimulate their activity in averting it
instead of creating encouragement. I
am very far from arrogating to myself
a controlling influence upon the policy
of my party, but as an unfinching
democrat who has been honored by his
party and who desires hereafter no
greater political privileges than to oc-
cupy the place of private in its ranks,
l hope may not be blamed for saying
thus much at this time in the interest,
as it seems to me, of the grand old or
so rich in honorable tradi-
tions, SO justly proud of its achieve
ments, and always so undaunted and
brave in it's battles for the peoples

THE WAR IN G "a.
Infectious Diseases Playing Havoc in the
Ranks of Spanish Troops.

Havana. June 17.-Juan Brito Con-
zalez was executed Monday at Crucas,
province of Santa Clara, for the crime
of rebellion. No fighting of any con-
sequence has occurred since the battle
at Najasa. Nothing definite is known
of the movements of the rebels under
Maceo in the province of Pinar del Rio.
The last information regarding them
was that they were near Paiacios
marching eastward. A passenger train
has been der0iled by rebels near Baino,
province of Matanzas. The engineer
and fireman joined the insurgents. A
meeting of the board of health has
been called to adopt measures to pre-
vent the spread of infectious diseases,
which are playing havoc in the ranks
of the Spanish troops. Surgeon-Gen-
eral Loscda left for Matanzas for the
purpose of studying means to check
the yellow fever in that city.

VIII Be Approved and Pre-
sented to the Convention.
st. Louis, June 17.-In the Delaware
contests the credentials committee will
report in favor of seating the Higgins
delegation. The vote was, ayes 81,
nays II. On the resolution to seat the
Addicks men the vote was 20 ayes, 90
nays. The committee met in the
rooms of the Massachusetts headauar-
ters at the Southern hotel Immediately
after the adjournment of the conven-
tion and organized by electing j.
Franklin Fort of New Jersey as chair
man. The committee at once discussed
the proposition to uphold the action of
the national committee in regard to
contests and to adopt their work as
whole without taking up individual
cases. The matter was discussed at
length and aroused a warm debate.
The committee then moved to the New
Jersey headquarters on Fourth street.
A resolution declaring that the roll of
delegates and alternates prepared by
the national committee for the purpose
of the temporary organization be
adopted by this committee as the true
and correct roll of the delegates and
alternates to the convention, and that
this committee proceed with the hear
ing of the contests referred to it by the
national committee, viz, the delegates
and alternates from the state of Della
ware and the delegates and alternates
from the state of Texas, was adopted.
This showed that the Mckinley men of
the committee who desired to shut out
any further hearing of the contests
had won, and that the temporary roll
of the convention, as far as completed,
would be made permanent, and the
work of the convention shortened. At
the conclusion of the Addiclxs hearing
the committee adjourned until 10
o'clock this morning, when it will take
up the Texas contest between the
"lily whites" and "black and tans"
Mr.. Hepburn will present minority

Her Spanish Pursuer.
Philadelphia, June 1.-THE filibus-
tering steamship Laurada has escaped
the fire of hostile Spanish gunboats
and is once more in friendly waters.
The famous little fruit steamer passed
in the Delaware capes late last evening
and arrived here this morning. The
last time the Laurada was reported she
was skirting the shores of the island
of Jamaica within the three-mile limit
and Spanish gunboat was following
parallel with her and awaiting the mo-
ment she should get out of English
water to open fire on her. The Lau-
rada evidently proved too fast for the
Spania rd and left him behind before
she was compelled to take to the open

Days Session.
st. Louis, June 17.-The incomplete
ness of the arrangements at the con-
vention auditorium caused a vast
amount of confusion when the republi-
can national convention assembled
yesterday. In many cases the section
letters and seat numbers did not cor
respond, and it was difficult matter
to locate seats for which tickets
seemed to call. At times all the aisles
in the building were crowded with
struggling men calling for their seatL.
Despite the noise and confusion, how
ever, all the leaders of national promi-
nence were cheered as they entered
the hall and made their way to their
seats In the seating of the delega-
tions New York was placed in the mid
Ole aisle, directly in front of the plat
sorm. Maine and Massachusetts, had
the front seats in the section on the
right, while Ohio had the front left
hand section, with Pennsylvania right
behind. A picture of the late James
y. Blaine. hung above the main en-
trance, elected much applause.
The Rabbits Prayer.
1t was 1920 o'clock when Chairman
carter began to rap for order. There
was SO much noise and confusion that
mis- voice could not be heard twenty
leet from the platform. He pounded
the table for several minutes try
ing to obtain something like
silence and order. At 1924 clock
Ine audience arose and when Rabbi
sale began his prayer silence was re-
stored. He prayed: ''Gracious Father,
fountain of life and light, we seek thy
presence and implore thy guidance in
tne tasks and tolls before us. o, thou

M'KINLEY AND MORTON.
A Prominent Eastern Delegate Says That
That Will Be the Ticket.


That VIII Be the Ticket.
st. Louis, June 1T. G. Platt said
to a representative Of the United Press
this morning: ''Mr Morton is still
candidate for the first place on the
ticket" In answer to question as to
a statement published that he (Mr
Platt) had received a telegram from
Mr. Morton expressing his willingness
to accept nomination as vice presi-
dent if it were offered him, Mr.. Platt
said: 81 can positively deny having re-
ceived any such telegram | repeat,
Mr. Morton is still in the field for
president" From another source it
was learned, however, that many of
the leading manipulators think it is
practically decided that Mr. Morton
will be nominated for vice-president
after Major Mckinley has been placed
at the head of the ticket and that as
surances have been received that Mr..
Morton will accept. One of the most
prominent of the eastern delegates said
last evening: The ticket will be Nc
Kinley and Morton. You may put that
down as settled"
Milhoiland Opposes Morton.
St. L ouis, June 1.-THE Mckinley
league of the state of New York held
a meeting last evening to protest
against the attempt to force upon the
convention the name of Gov. Morton
for the vice presidency. Resolutions
to that effect, offered by John w. Mil
holland and which, he said. had been
approved by McKinley's friends here,
were adopted. The grounds for their
opposition were that the purpose OF
the movement was to discredit the
candidacy of Mckinley and weaken
him before the conventions; that 1t
would drag into national politics the
factional fight in New York, and that
IL was an insult to the friends OF Nc
Kinley in New York. Dodgers calling
