Hartford, Conn.,, August 1.-It is doubt full yet whether Connecticut's delegation to the next democratic national convention will be for or against Bryan and silver. The party machinery is in the hands of tho silver men, but Connecticut Is gold state.
 Annapolis, Md, August H.-Under the gold influence of Baltimore the gold demo- crats have dominated the democratic party of Maryland, but the Bryan sentiment is so strong that if Mir. German follows MT. Croker's example the Maryland democratic delegation will be for Bryan in 1900.
 Trenton, N. J., August 1.-1he outlook at this time is that there will be a frdce contest between the Bryan supporters and the anti-Bryan people. The chances are that the Bryan and silver people will win and send solid delegation to the national convention.
 Montpelier, Vt, August 14.-In all prob- ability the democrats of Vermont will send delegations of men favorable to silver to the national convention, whether for Bryan or not is uncertain.
 Madison, Wis, August 14.-Wisconsin democrats are at present In a somewhat chaotic condition, but it is entirely prob able that they will send a Bryan and 16 to 1 delegation to the next national conven- tfon. Bryan men are in control of state organization and are actively at work.
 Springfield, H., August 14.-Barring radical change of sentiment, the fifteen county districts of Illinois will choose thir- ty Bryan and silver delegates and the sev- en Cook county districts will probably send the same kind.
