Hill.

New York, June 5.-Thc Dcmocra-
tic state convention convened at the
academy of music at eleven to-day.
Every precaution is taken to avoid
friction disastrous to party interests.
All resolutions offered by any delegate
are to be referred to committee ON
resolutions without debate. Senator
Hill led the fight against thc endorse
ment of the national Chicago plat
form. He urged the adoption of a
conservative platform. 1t is intended
that any controversy over the planks
shall occur behind the closed doors of
the committee room.
Just before the convention met. the
Chicago platform men proposed to
Hill and the other leaders, that if the
endorsement of the Chicago platform
could not be had, that they desired
no platform whatever. Hill and the
others did not agree to this.
