THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.

Washington, Dec. 11-All preliminary
Preparations for the meeting of the
Democratic national convention COM
mittee which will be held al the Ar
lington hotel beginning at IL o'clock
tomorrow. have been completed and it
is believed that the committee can COM
plete its work of selecting a time and
place for holding the convention before
adionrning tomorrow's session.
The Democratic committee has an adj
vantage over the Republican commit
tee in that it is not necessary for it
to select a chairman, as Chairman
Taggart will continue to hold the posi-
ton at least until after the convention
The only contest will be over the place
Of meeting. So far there has been no
active canvass in the interest of any
city except Denver. The delegation
which came on in the hope OF securing
that Republican convention for the
Colorado city, has remained over and
it's members are urging upon the Demo-
cratic committeeman the advantages
of the Colorado climate. Denver is
making the same offer of 100000 as q
bonus that was made to the Republic
can committee. it is expected that
Louisville and Cleveland will be cam
didates for the honor Of entertaining
the convention. Some of the members
believe that Chicago in the end will
make the same proposition that it made
the Republican committee. which was
to furnish han and pay all expenses
Of the convention. In that event It
viii secure many votes.
