DEMOCRATS EXPRESS SATISFACTION
Gratified at the Apparent Amity Mt
Saratoga.

Great sa -.sfaction is expressed at the
democratic congressional headquarters with
the outcome of the democratic state con-
vention of New York. The ground for
qualification is that the contest between
Hill and Croker did not result in any vio-
lent demonstration of hostility which would
indicate division of the party and cutting
of the ticket at the polls. The fact that
Hill moved to make the nomination Of
Stanchtield unanimous and that there was
evidence of a purpose to accept the result
and of good feeling toward the ticket noni-
mated, whatever personal hostility may con-
tinue between Croker and Hill, is pointed
to as an assurance that all elements of the
party are going to work earnestly for the
ticket, both state and national.
The democrats suggest further that the
course of Hill in accepting the defeat of
Coler gracefully and avowing his earnest
support of the nominee indicates the gem
eral belief among the democrats that they
are going to be successful in New York this
fall and that each of the leaders wants to
get his share Of the credit, by working
earnestly for the party, regardless of per-
sonaf jea1ousies or disagreementS.

He Will go from here to Wisconsin. where

presses himself as very well pleased with
the general outlook for democratic success

much outside Of MS own state since the
Kansas City convention, he thinks the inai
cations are that Bryan will be elected.
MI Ifiiman has j:;st got through with a
not and a queer fight for supremacy in his
own state, where he has been supporting
the d1spensary system against the oppose
ton of both the prohibitionists and the
liquor men. He says that the victory Of
the dfspensary system is complete. Though
there had been no opposition TO his re-elec-
tion to the Senate, he placed his seat at
stake by declaring that he would not ac-
cept reelection If the dispensary was de-
feated. He says that more than two-t thirds
of the legislature will sustain the dispen-
sary and his reelection to the Senate will
be practically unanimous, as all the demo-
Gratis of the legislature will vote for him.

a great stir among the miners and

Mitchell's strike order Those who were in

AFTER AMERICAS GOLD.
German Government Seeking n Loan
of *25,OOO.OtbO.

NEW YORK, September 13.-No authori-
iative Information can be had in Wall
street of negotiations for placing a Ger
man government loan in New York, but the
report finds general credence on account of
tacit admission that the German govern
ment is seeking and will likely succeed In
borrowing $2J,00oOD0 from New York, Chi
cago and Milwaukee lenders, for which GER
tainly a part is to be paid for by gold ship
ments
II is evident that desire to relnquish the
German stock of gold is the motive of a
direct negotiation with American bankers
by the German authorities, as 1t was of the
British authorities in the allotment of over
half of the latest issue of British excheduer
bonds with New York bankers. The opera :
tons are closely analogous to that OF the
United States government several years "A 90.
when the placing of bond issue was made
conditional for imports of gold.
