Associated Press Telegram.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, June 1.-THE at
tention both of delegates and other visiting
politicians tonight is concentrated on the
movement in the interest of Governor
Roosevelt as a vice presidential candidate
The Pennsylvania delegation met early in
the day, and it was soon announced that
the State delegation had taken a positive
position for the Governor for the second
place on the ticket This announcement
was soon followed by the statement, which
was made on excellent authority, that Mr.
Quay and Senator Platt and others in SYM
pathy with them had held conference last
night and had decided on plan of cam
paign, which was intended to bring Roose-
Welt to the front, stampede and force his
nomination on the convention.
Among others who were taken into the
confidence of Quay and Platt was National
Committeeman Saunders. who has been do
ing jealous work in bringing over the inter-
mountain States to the support of Roose-
velt's candidacy Senator Penrose. of Penn
sylvania, and Senator Wolcott. of Colo
RADIO, are both in the movement, and the
managers are claiming the votes, not only
of the New York and Pennsylvania dele
gates. but of California. Kansas, Nebraska,
Colorado, Indiana and Illinois, as well as
of many others. All this, of course, is on
the supposition that favorite sons will be
eliminated from the fight.
Mr.. Quay. announced himself as for
Roosevelt because of his confidence that
the Governors nomination would assure
the success of the Republican ticket in
November, but there are those-and they
are not enemies of the Colonel-who an
nounced the belief that his position is the
result of antagonism his part to Sena-
tor Hanna, chairman of the national COM
mittee. IL was also asserted that Quay
still remembered the fact that the Ohio
Senator had cast his influence against him
in his recent effort to secure his old seat
in the Senate by gubernatorial appoint
ment- Quay did not admit the truth of
these statements. saying there were
broader reasons for nominating Roose-

MIR. III. III. HANNA's PLANK.
An Unfortunate PhraseOlogy Has
Aroused Much Opposition.

Special to the indianapolis Journal
PHILADELPHIA, June L.-H. III. Han
ma, who was chairman of the Sound-money
League in 1896, has submitted the follow
ing plank for insertion in the Republican
platform:
THE employment of the people is the
contentment of the people. The greatest
benefaction to man is the opportunity for
labor. Our best hope for continuous pros
perity lies in winning the worlds markets
for the products of the American farm and
factory.
Low interest rates are potent factors in
securing this result. The wise financial
legislation already enacted by the Repub-
lican party contributes to this end. Hav-
ing secured stability in our currency. We
now favor additional monetary legislation
to equalize and better the rates of interest
by providing flexible and sufficient me-
dunn of exchange for the benefit of the
borrower as well as the lender of money,
in order that American commerce may be
enlarged and that labor may be assured of
steady remunerative employment"
1t is the last paragraph which has caused
the row. AS one member of the national
committee put it, what on earth does he
mean by flexible and sufiicient?' We are
on a solid basis-are on a gold basis. We
won the election of 1896 on that issue. and
We certainly do not intend now in any way
to recede from our position in 1900. Yet
those words seem to me to imply neither
more nor less than promise or premise
that We will reopen the whole question and
take up silver again. Without flexible and
sufficient the plank is harmless enough,
but. as told Mr.. Hanna this morning, IL ii
went in in its present form it would be
pounced upon at once and we would be as
sailed from the Atlantic to the Pacific as
trying to run in silver under cover of the
phrase. 1t is an extraordinary plank for a
sound-money man to father. but there is
not much danger of its being Incorporated
into the platform in its present FORM"
