The President and Secretary came to Cleveland

largest quantity Of coal to Cleveand) with a
view of making an arrangement by which their

troubles between miners and operators.

ArBANY, Sept l8.--Thc Peoples party has no
legal status In this State, so far as It's right to
n party column on tho official ballot is concerned.
Lawrence J. McParlin OF Lockport, representing
the Peoples party, recently addressed commu-
nication to tho Secretary Of State, which was
referred for answer to the Attorney General.
In his communication Mr.. McParlin says:
Last fall the Peoples party nominated the
same electors and the samo person for Governor
as the Democrats, and the electors and Governor
90 nominated received moro than 10000 votes,
and the election was general election In tho
State OF New York"
Mr.. McParlin asks II there Is any reason under
the circumstances why tho Peoples party GER
tilcato of nomination for Judge of the Court Of
Appeals. or for any other State officer that 1t
not be duly accepted and filed in the office OF the
Secretary OF state and the candidates OF that
party placed on the GietH ballet tho
"Permit me to say that by the only official rec
showing a separate and distinct vote by the
Peoples party for State officer, namely, Asso-
that the total VOC @ cast for this Office By said
party was 8,344 This seems to me to bo tho
true basis upon when to determine the question ion
apon q cfst PaSS ' the
cn 81 SBd o. Else the BY Eseton fhS Rs0ps
relates to party nominations, provides that
a party desiring to make nominations
for n candidate for public office must have cast
at the last preceding general election at which
the Governor was elected 10000 votes Under
the provisions OF this section 1t would therefore
present no legal status. There is nothing. how
ever. to prevent an independent nomination be-
ing made in accordance with section % OF tho
Election law, In which case the certificate Of
domination for State officer must be filed with
the Secretary Of State and must have the sigma
lures of at least 5000 voters of the State"
Mr.. McParlin does not agree with the Attor-
ney General on this question and will undoubt-
edly appeal to the courts.

BRYAN CITY TICKET
May Be Nominated Before Tnmmany's-No

The Bryanites are much disturbed by the diff
culties in the way OF making independent nomi-
nations for Chief Judge of the Court Of Appeals
under the Election law. 1t is required that
there shall be 5000 signatures to the nominating
petition, and at least fifty from each county Of
the State. The securing Of such petition would
consume much time and cost SO much money
that Henry Nichols and ex-senator Bixby OF
the United Democracy Holland House confer.
ence both said yesterday that the nomination
might be abandon The question will be
settled at meeting OF the Conference Commit.
tee to be held Mt the headquarters OF the United
Democracy, 10 East Twenty-third street. to-
night.
One OF the questions to he settled at the meet
ing tonight is the date for holding the United
Democracy City Convention. All indications
point to saturday, Sept. %. as tho date to be
liked. This means that the silver men repre-
sented in the Holland House conference propose
putting city ticket in the field before Tamnany
does. The Democratic Alliance is opposed to
such action because its managers believe that
better men can be secured for candidates II they
wait until Tammany has shown her hand.
One thing which all the Bryanitcs are agreed on
is that my Bryan man who permits himself 10

bringing support of labor men to the Tammany
ticket will be treated as q traitor to the Chicago
