Chairman Bynun, of the gold Demo
cratic party is here for few days. Mfr
Bynum speaks hopefully of the outlook
for the GOLD ticketin the States where they
have been nominated, and says they will
poll a very large vote. In those States
where the Chicago platform has been
ignored, Mr.. Bynum says, the gold Demo-
Gratis win support the regular Democratic
ticket. This viii be the case in Mary
land and in New York, if Tammany does
not take up the platform as agreed to at
Chicago. Mr.. Bynum is inclined to the
opinion that Tammany will be persuaded
that 1t will make more votes than it viii
lose by oriitting any reference TO the Chi.
cago platform.

Washington, April 22-Representative
W. s. Holman, of Indiana, died this af-
ternOon at 2:05 O'clock The members of
his family have been with him all day,
for they realized that the end was not far

Mr.. Holman had been seriously i'll for
about ten days. Early in the month he
had a fall, as Il result of an attack of
vertigo and since that time he has steadi-
ly grown worse More than two weeks
ago he complained of feeling badly and
expressed the intention of going off for
a rest and change. He was never able
to get away and soon after that he took
to his bed. At one time there was a con-
siderable improvement in his condition
and his family hoped that he might re-
cover. A few days ago he took a turn
for the worse and since yesterday he had
been unconscious, and under the influence
of opiates. He passed away without re
covering consciousness. Mr.. Holman was
just entering upon his thirty-firSt year
of his connection with the House.
Judge Holman while in Congress earn
eStly opposed the SUBSIDY system from
the public resources, either in bonds,
lands or money to promote private en-
terpr;ses. He has opposed all forms of
class legislation. He was an earnest adj
yocate of the homestead policy.
He has generally been a member of
the committees on war claims, commerce
and appropriations. At the last session
of the forty-fourth Congress he was

priations and also of the Committee on
Public Buildings and Grounds. He was

Baltimore, Md, April 22-Tha Manu-

this week an interview with eX-Secretary

the ground that rs soon as the conserva-
tism Of the Southern people and the in

be made sufficiently widely known, it
will become the custom III financial circles
to favor Southern securities. He bases
his idea Of the conservatism of the South
upon the fact that a population of un-
mixed o-SaXOnsm has been trained
under common law institutions to regard
precedent and to yenerate law and order
and justice. He admits that there has
been in the South some OF the anti-corpo-
ration craze, but from HIS standpoint,
which is exceptionally good for obtain
ing broad view of existing conditions,
he sees a passing of the evil and he pre-
diets that it can never live long enough
to become sufficiently vigorous to do any
damage in a Southern atmosphere. The
age of machinery and large enterprises.
