HEARST PLATFORM GOES ONE BETTER Independence Party's Radical Declaration on Injunctions Calls Democratic Plank
 Meaningless.
MONEY PLANK DISTURBING
IIisgeu. Who Leads in Race for Pres idcntial Nomination, Says Fusion With Democracy Is Out
 of the Question.

Chicago, July 26.rhe platform of the Independence party, which is to meet in national convention to-mor- row night, will. if present plans are carried out contain much more rad ical declaration on the question of in- junction than was embodied in the platforms of either the democratic or republican party
 From present indications, the temper of the convention will be in favor of a declaration doing away entirely with preliminary injunctlons in cases of la hor disputes. The majority Of the dele- gates who have arrived also believe that there should be no punishment for contempt of court until after a trial by jury
 The members of the independence party make the identical statement re- garding the democratic platform that the democrats made concerning the re- publican declaration on njunctions. They assert that 1t means nothing, says nothing and lcuds nowhere.
 The sentiment of the convention so far as it can be forecasted, is some- what divided concerning the financial plank of the platform The majority seem to favor declaration that all money should be issued directly by the government without any Intermediary others incline to the view that tho money should be Issued through na- tional banks.
 An amendment to the sherman ac will be favored adjusting that statute lin such a manner that 1t can be made to apply only 10 such combinations as are clearly acting in restraint of trade or tending toward monopoly Over capitalization of corporations will Dc condemned.
 l A strong and specific declaration will also be made in favor of the restriction of Asiatic immigration
