Chicago, July 4. The most interesting feature of the day at the Palmer house was the -manner in which the eastern men who arrived yesterday plunged into their canvass which they style the sound money campaign. Most of the leaders betook themselves early to the Palmer house considering that the most promising field for their operations. "William C.

"Whitney, John R. Fellows, Hugh Grant, Comptroller Eckels, Hon. "Washington Hesifng, of Chicago, ex-Governor Russell of Massachusetts, ex-Congressman Everett of Massachusetts and Don M. Dickinson of Michigan, are conspicuous figures in the lobbies. These gentlemen took off their coats and plunged into their business.

They buttonholed strangers, who the badges of delegates and plied them with arguments. The tenor of their talk was that Democrats must not let their party be captured by Populists and that free silver and gold at 16 to 1 would bring the country to a silver basis and involve commercial prosperity. Young Governor Russell of a light suit of gray, with a straw hat thrust upon the back of his head, was particularly energetic and attracted much attention. Whenever half a dozen silver men gathered about him he made a brief extemporaneous speech, expounding the eastern view. THE LITTLE RIFT.

These meetings of 'the two factions were not altogether harmonious, and frequently 16 to 1 delegates made forcible and even harsh remarks to the leaders of the gold propaganda. Particularly distasteful to the 16 to 1 silver men seemed to be the claim of the eastern contingent that it stood for sound money. This in substance was a passage often heard: "Are you for sound money?" the question put by an easterner. "I am for sound money. Silver and gold at 16 to 1 the money of the constitution," the reply by a 16 to 1 delegate.

Occasionally the gold men would accuse the silverites of being Populists, and tell them that they had no right to claim membership in the Democratic party. One delegate, who wore an Indiana badge, made a fierce verbal assault upon a group of gold men, of which Russell of Massachusetts was the central figure, illustrating the feeling entertained by a part of the silver men. Vnn onle. are disorganizes rupters, bolters," he exclaimed hotly. "The Democratic party is ior xree silver; silver is the only issue on which it can possiDiy tvih iu nib" You are trying to undermine us and take from us our only possible chance of success.

The financial issue is the only issue in thi campaign. The re- nublican Dartv Is for goia ana tne dem ocratic party for silver. You had bet ter go where you belong. IN THE MORNING EARLY. Chicago, July 4.

The eastern gold standard men got to work early tnis mornincr. but were decidedly uncommu nicative. Senator Hill's- attitude of last nieht and this morning of not talking upon the issue Is the basis of much spe culation. It had been supposeu tna-t both he and Mr. "Whitney would be the great prophets of the gold movement and would do the talking, but so far, while Mr.

"Whitney is looked upon as the leader, the statements as to cause and effect of the silver move upon tne party have been made by ex-Governor Flower and John R. Fellows. Whether Senator Hill's quietude betokens a desire to take the 'tempuorary chair manship of the convention untrammel- ed by any decisive or absolutely par tial statement or whether it is merely the quietude that betokens active work for the next few days Is not known. Silver men pooh hooh this morning the threats of Flower and Fellows that a silver ticket will be defeated and that Democrats will not vote for it. PROPHETS "WITHOUT HONOR.

Senator Blackburn was very caustic in his remark about it. He said: "The walls of the very room in which the statements of silver defeat were made last night, re-echoed four years agi with a similar tocsin as to the candidacy of President Cleveland. If I mistake not, the very same voices were raised in an even louder cry than last night, that so sure as the convention nominated Mr. Cleveland, just so sure would it be defeated. If their predictions of last night are as lacking in truthfulness as those of four year ago.

why, I dont believe the silver people will quail very much before the denunciations. HILL'S CHANCES. There seems to be more of a disposition to accept Hill as temporary chairman among the silver men this morning. The more conservative among them argue that if he were selected by the -national committee it would be unwise for the silver people to attempt any fight over his taking the chair for many of the silver adherents are for him.and a split of the silver forces on the first question before the' convention would be a bad precedent. Others of the silver men are more rabid in their desire that a silver man shall preside, and assert that if the national con-mittee selects Mr.

Hill they will move a substitute. Senator Hill himself declines to discuss the matter. He said: "It would be Impolitic for me to say anything prior to the action of the national committee. I am not seeking the honor." The work of visiting the various del egations was begun by the gold men at an early hour.despUe the fact that the messing to make assignments had not been held. "WILL THE GOLD MEN BOLT?" Chicaco, July A.

The leading question of the day seems to be: "Will the gold standard men bolt the convention if a silver platform is adopted?" As to this particular question, ex-Governor loswell P. Flower, said this flstfisa Maoe a wen Kan of hHDAPO rat ut -UNDOO REMEDY racsccrs rzx AWrs JirI LTS In SO DATS. I. igl r- oh ik oTa. jnl o-nt3re rterw rftUklb, welder ItjiOLW' vt'Xr? t-lx Jo-4i.

"Arm morning to the Associated Press representative: "I am frank to say that if an out-and-out silver platform is adopted the gold standard men, as representing truly the Democracy, should leave the convention. believe that either the defeat or success of a silver ticket means 'that the leaders in the movement and the movement itself will be consigned by the country to oblivion before a year has passed and tht theory silver is Known, by the masses." Governor Flower was asked: "Will the gold, standard adherents nominate a candidate in the convention in order to hold their forces together?" "Frankly, I don't think so. My own belief Is that we will not be in the convention when the roll Is called for nominations.

I don't think we will remain in the convention after the adoption of a silver plank." "Suppose a Republican, Mr. Teller, for instance, was nominated, would that make the proposed bolt any more pronounced?" "I don't helieve that the Democratic convention will go so far as to name a Republican, so I can't speculate on that issue." Senator Hill was told of Governor Flower's views, but declined to subscribe 'to that portion concerning the "bolt. He said: "We have several days yet and things may change materially, so that I cannot say what our action will be. No, I don't think we will have a. candidate.

Indeed, if a silver platform is adopted, I don't see how we could make a pretense of placing a candidate upon it." John R. Fellows said: "We ought to leave the convention if the silver policy prevails. That Is all I have to say." THE GOLD MEETING. The proposed gold meeting called for 11 o'clock turned out to be in the nature of a very informal conference and the real work of consultation was done Sn the private rooms of Senator Hill, Mr. Whitney and Mr.

Harrity. Senator Hill had Mr. Whitney in his room in the morning with Governor Flower and several Illinois and Indiana men. He said after this conference: "It is entirely too early for us to say just what plan we will pursue in the convention after it is organized. First, there is the fight in the committee on resolutions and then there is the fight on the platform 5n the open convention.

If the silver platform is adopted we will then be compelled to take a stand and it will be quickly done and cannot now be forecasted." Mr. Whitney after talking with Mr. Hill, strode into the Illinois headquarters and said: "We are now conducting our campaign of education, and it will last until the convention meets. How it will end nobody knows, but we will move faster after the conention gets In cession. Will we bolt? Well, I can't discuss that now.

Will we have a candidate. I can't tell." Ex-Governor Sheehan, New York's committeeman, said: "To talk of bolt- "ing before the convention decides any thing Is foolish. We will act after the platform is adopted." MERELY FOR COHESION. On the other hand, it has been determined by some of the anti-silver men to have candidates placed in nomination for whom they can vote. The gold standard men think they have about T30 votes In the convention, and they wish to have them held away from any sliver candidate until some definite arrangement can be made for making, their force effective.

Ex-Governor Pattison will be placed in nomination by Pennsylvania, and there is some talk that William E. Russell will receive the endorsement of the Massachusetts delegation. It has also been suggested that some candidate should be named who -would receive all the anti-silver votes after complimentary votes have been cast. There lias been some suggestion that William Whitney should be the man whopx the gold Democrats should unite on, but it Is doubtful if he would care to be voted for in a. convention which adopted a silver platform.

There is also some talk of placing William R. Morrison in nomination for the purpose of holding the anti-silver vote together, but up to the present time the action of the gold men has not crystalized on any line of policy during the convention. LITTLE RHODY IS SOLID. Providence, R. July 4.

The members of the Rhode Island delegation left for Chicago this forenoon. The expressed sentiment of the delegation is for gold and without exception they have stated their Intention of placing themselves under the. leadership of William C. Whitney on their arrival at Chicago. Delegates Conley and Met-calf have openly declared that they prefer the preservation of the gold standard to the success of their party, and Mr.

Metcalf, who is a prominent manufacturer, says that he will bolt if the convention declares for free silver. The delegates favor ex-Governor Pattison of Pennsylvania, for president. MINNESOTA IS NOT. Chicago, uly 4. The silver people were much encouraged upon the arrival of some of the delegates from Minnesota today to receive assurance that the sentiment in favor of silver is constantly Increasing in the delegation.

It was at first supposed to be solid for gold. At last night's silver caucus a dispatch was read from E. B. "Winston, saying there were six silver men in the number. Today's arrivals report that there are seven who are sure to vote with the silver people and that there are two others who are on the verge of allying themselves with that interest.

The silver men have also received assurance that no fewer than six of the Massachusetts delegates, an equal number from Florida, and four of the Maryland delegates will stand with them. These changes increase their former calculations to the extent of fourteen or fifteen votes, and if their previous figures were correct, assures them the necessary two-thirds vote beyond peradventure. The gold men do not, however, admit their claims. TELLER MEN FOR BLAND. Though the opinion was later in the day discredited, it seems this morning that the Republicans who bolted from the St.

Louis convention and who have been -urging the nomination of Senator Teller for the presidency by the Democrats, had abandoned that idea. Many were outspoken in favor of the nomination of Mr. Bland, and promised to support him If he were nominated. Senator Fred T. Dubois of Idaho, who has been the leader of what is known as the Teller idea since the bolt at St.

Louis, confessed to a correspondent last night that Senator Teller was not a candidate, and that the idea of presenttog his name in the Democratic national convention had been abandoned. Senator Dubois said that Mr. TeKer himself Jiever gave countenance to th of his nomination by the Democrats and discouraged those friends of ii who wre urging his eJaims upon th- Democrat. "It Is clear to roc now." said Senator Dubois, "that Mr. Bland has an overwhelming Jemd.

aad I don't how hi nmiaation can be prevented. Everything points toward IUjb. so far as I can see. The opposition to him has crumbled and I look for hie txltuaptaoi nominsuloa on t5ie art ballot." Asked wba-t he and his friends Wbo bolted the St. Lous convention -wocld do in the evrnt of Mr.

Bland's Senator Dubois said: "We will ebeerfuJCy support him. He ss as good a silver man as anyone eeekl d-ire. He wiX as satisfactory almost to my people aa Mr. TeCer. ead I hart 5 5 ms mmmmmmmm Tool oiteoaiST fi no doubt that Mr.

Bland will be elected president." Asked if Mr. Teller's friends would ask the vice presidenitl nomination for the Colorado senator, Mr. Dubois said: "No, Senator Teller does not want the vice presidency and "believes that it is best for the Democrats to nominate a ticket according to their own desires and if the candidates and platform ore straight for free silver, I have no doubt that the free coinage Republicans will support them." TELLER NOT WITHDRAWN. Denver. July 4.

"There is not a word of truth in it," said Senator Teller, when asked regarding the report at Chicago that he had written Governor Ailt-geld thathe would not permit his name to go before the Democratic convention. "I have not changed my attitude from what it was in St. Louis in the least." Continuing the senator said: "There at Qie earnest solicitation of many gentlemen, silver Republicans, who left' the party like myself, and Democrats and Poulists, I consented that my name-might be used in connection with the irresidency at Chicago. I told thenH frankly that I had no claims upon, the Democratic party, and that I did not consider my nomination by Its convention as possible. Nevertheless if, as my more than partial friends thought, the Democratic delegates might believe that my candidacy woud more likely bring to theticket the necessary electoral votes needed I wculd leave the matter in their hands and thus wholly their discretion and patriotism." Speaking of the Chicago convention, he said: "The majority is a body of magnificent and patriotic men.

There is no doubt they will issue a new declaration of independence and nominate candidates about whose devotion to the welfare of the plain xtple there itl be no room to doubt. TTIe great majority for bimetallism, which the convention contains, is overwhelming proof of the power and virtue of our fre institutions, and is a certain guaranty that whatever the emergency they will prove equal to the strain and meet the most sanguineH expectations of their founders. I believe that the money chicanery of the gold power will prove utterly futile in such a body, and that its emissaries wiH retreat dismayed and unsuccessful." Ex-Governor Walte was shut our of the Populist state convention today. He was heading a contest delegation from Arapahoe county. BLAND BOOM IS BIGGER.

Chicago. July 4. The Missouri dele gation held a caucus at the Auditorium? this morning and heard reports on the progress of tihe Bland candidacy. These were of such a character that the Bland managers raised their previous estimates and stated at the conclusion of the caucus that their candidate would have the bulk, if not all, 'of the votes from west of the Mississippi river on the first ballot, except Iowa; two-thirds of the southern votes and that of Illinois on the first ballot, and that of Ohio and Indiana on the second ballot. It was distinctly stated after the meeting that the Bland forces were making no combinations with other candidates.

No action was taken'on naming members of the convention committees. It appears to be conceded, however, that Governor Stone will be the Missouri member of the platform committee. One of the delegates, Mr. Showalter, stated the position of the delegation on the choice of a temporary chairman of the convention as follows: "If the majority of thenatlonal committee suggest Senator HiM. or any other gold man, a member of the committee will suggest the name of ex-Gongr? e-man Bryan, Senator Daniel or some other prominent silver man an'd adopted beyond question." EOIES MEN'S METHODS.

Chicago, JuJy 4. The Iowa men hav been preparing to meke a strong fight all alocg the lines of the delegates, beginning today.

no demonstration. He did not go to the hotel register.but one of his friends registered the governor's name in a bold hand, which waa thereafter scanned with interest as indicative of the rugged character of the candidate. He -was assigned to a room on the third floor and here he received the long line of callers who soon centered at his door. An obliging attendant presented each visitor by name, and the governor extended a cordial greeting unmarked by any trace of effusiveness of a candidate. While known as a popumr handshaker, the governor maintains a quiet dignity throughout his political conferences.

He was dressed in a blue Prince Albert coat showing signs of travel and his appearance was -that of a plain, serious man. TALKS WITH FREEDOM. Shortly after his arrival the governor received at his room a representative of the Associated Press, and talked with freedom on the situation. He did not wish to discuss his personal to be put in the embarrassing 'position of urging his own availability. He said he had come here to get acquainted with his friends from various parts of tho country.

He would not make a protracted stay, he said, but after spending today here, would return to his home tomorrow. When asked as to the sliver question as an element in the present contest. Governor Boies said: "My views favoring the restoration of silver to coinage are so well known, and have been expressed In such language that It seems unnecessary that I say anything more for the pufhllc at this time. I regard the financial question as the great question, the foremost question before the American people today, and I believe the present time is auspicious for Its solution on the basis which tho people desire." "MONEY. THE TARIFF." The governor was asked If he felt that tho financial question was stirring up serious differences.

"Any fears that I may have In that regard." he proceeded, "have "open entirely dispelled within the last few weeks. Silver sentiment in the east Is growing beyond anything we had reason to expect only a short time ago." "Do you regard the tariff question a an important issue at the present time?" the governor was asked. "The people want the money question settled first." he replied. "I cannot bring myself to believe that the tariff question can be made to cut an Important figure in the campaign. In other words.

It will be overshadowed by the currency question." BOIES' PRESENCE RESENTED. Chicago, July 4. Considerable personal feeling has been aroused by the ap-pearance of Governor Botes, and tho managers of other leading candidates are openly declaring that it ie contrary to precedent for a candidate for the presidency to personally attend the convention. While Senator Blackburn and John McLean are here they came as of their respective states, while Mr. Boles Is not on the Iowa delegation.

At the Bland headquarters the state mnt was made with emphasis thU Mr. Bland would not so violate precedents and proprieties as to come to Chicago during the convention. Mr. J. D.
