The President Refuses Positively to
Become a Candidate.
IBIS. TELEGRAM TD CHICAGO.
Work of the ‘Gold Standard Convention
on the Second Day of Its Session.
“7. C.- P. Brecklnridge Speaks.
The Platform Adopted.
INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 4:—As a combat-
ive and it is believed final argument
against the nomination of Grover Cleve-
land, Daniel G. Griffin, chairman of the
New York delegation, today displayed this
telegram in answer to a dispatch sent early
last night by Mr. Griffin to Mr. Cleveland
at Buzzards Bay: _
“My public and personal inclination is
so unalterably opposed that I cannot for
one moment consider the suggestion.
“GROVER CLEVELAND.”
When the absolute declination of Mr.
Cleveland became known, there was acou-
certed effort made to get Senator Palmer
to withdraw his objection, and a commit.
tee from five states—New York, New J or.
soy, Illinois, Michigan and Pennsylvania
-—-waited upon him with such a request.
He promptly replied in the negative and
assured the committee that under no con-
sideration, for purely personal reasons,
would he accept the nomination. . So the
contest narrowed down to Black and
Bragg, with a few dark horses in the field
and some of the New York delegates in
favor still of Vilag, whose name was not
generally being considered. The Illinois
delegation: however, did not give up all
hope of getting Senator Palmer to with-
draw his objection.
Before the Convention.
The delegates assembled slowly today,
but despite the agreeable drizzle outside
the ticket holders were eager to secure en-
trance. _ '
Today a larger proportion of the occu-
pants of the galleries Were ladies than on
yesterday. Between the intervals of music
the hall buzzed with the hum of conversa-
' tion.
The topic uppermost in the minds of
visitors and delegates was the nominee. It
was conceded that Buckner’s nomination
for vice president was a certainty, and the
speculation concerned the selection of the
candidate of those who did not believe
General Bragg Was the strongest selection
that could be made. The news of Presi-

SENATOR CAFFERY.
dent Cleveland’s telegram to the chairman
of the New York deiegatidn declining to
permit the use of his name was accepted
by the convention as final. The fact that
Senator Palmer had declined for personal
reasons to allow his name to be used was
not generally known when he appeared on
the stage, and he was given a rousing ova-
tion. Soon after he took his seat Mr. Cur-
tis of New Jersey talked with him, and
when he left the platform he said: “I be-
lieve Senator Palmer will be the nominee.
He declines to permit the use of his name,
but qualifies the statement by saying that
if nominated against his wish his declina-
tion will not be irrevocable.”
There was also considerable talk of Law-
ler and Black, but there was a general is-
position of the Bragg opposition to concen-
trate their strength. . ,
Called to Order.
At 11;38 Permanent Chairman Cafiery
called the convention to order. There was
no prayer. Senator Cafiery informed the
convention that the committee on resolu-
tions was not ready to report and begged
its patient indulgence for a few moments.’
He had hardly finished the sentence before
1,000 voices shouted for Breckinridge.
The galleries and delegates joined in the
call. Many of the latter jumped on their
chairs and yelled. ’For fully a minute this
rear for Kentucky’s famous orator came
from all quarters of the hall. It was no-
ticeable, however, that many remained si-
-lent while the demonstration was going
on and here and there ,went up a hiss.
With two exceptions, New York sat silent.
Mr. Breckinridge, in the front row of the
delegates, did not move. No sign came
from the stage. Chairman Cafiery spoke
no word as he stood with his gavel, but
the cheers went on and at last Colonel
Breckinridge arose. He seemed to hesi-
tate, but was pushed along toward the
stage. He stopped upon the raised plat-
form before the stage ‘On which the press
benches are located. The cheers and cries
wore redoubled.‘ Then he moved forward
to the stage, every eye upon him, 3,000
voices cheering. Senator Palmer, sitting
to the left of the stage, moved to the rear of
Chairman Caficry and across’sto the left
and met him with outstretched hand at
the top of the steps leading to the stage. -
Colonel Breckinridge placed his thumbs
in the pockets of his trousers, swept a
glance about the circumference of the hall
and tossed back his white hair with a ges-
ture . of the head familiar to those who
have heard him speak. A quick hush of
expectancy awaited his first words.
Breckinridge’s Speech.
“My countrymen,” he began, and
paused to embrace with a glance all the
delegates to the right and left, “from ev-
ery section of the imperial republic.”
HHe declared that the speeches of the
night before marked a crucial period of-
the republic’s history, and was first cheered
when he paid a compliment to Charlton
T. Lewis, the eloquent man from New
J erssy. Thereafter his well worded periods
evoked a sputtering volley of hand claps as
they rolled in strong, mellow tones from
his broad chest. After the first demonstra-
tion the faction of Opposition disappeared
and the hearing given him was respectful
and enthusiastic. _ 7
Demonstration followed demonstration
as his charming oratory flowed out over
the convention. When he said that it was
charged that the convention was here to
elect McKinley, and added that the free
silver Democrats had taken the job out of
their hands, the delegates and galleries
went wild. He pointed out the efiect in
Maryland, West Virginia, Ohio, Missouri,
Kentucky and other states of the attempt
of the silver Democrats to supplant the
teachings of true Democracy. Those states
had already passed out Of Democratic con-
trpl. The silver Democrats had already
given over the country to Republican rule.
“The platform adopted at Chicago is not
our platform,” he said; ”the nominees are
not ours.”
He referred to Mr. Bryan “as the young
man who is seeking to enlighten the
world.”
The whole of Mr. Bryan’s teachings, he
said, was for those who had been unfortu-
nate in life to unite to destroy those whose
W. C. P. BRECKINRIDGE.
life had been prosperous. Mr. Bryan, he
said, pointed out the booty and then told
his followers to use the ballot as the
Weapon.
He concluded with a brilliant and elo-
quent peroration on the duty of patriots to
home and country.
After the demonstration which followed
the conclusion of the speech had subsided,
Mr. Griffin, chairman of the New York
delegation, attempted to read a resolution
on the coinage question, but it was re-
ferred to the committee under the rules
without debate. Mr. Ochs of Tennessee
then mounted a chair and offered a resolu-
tion expressing the deep loss the national
Democracy felt in the death of Massachu~
setts’ brilliant governor, William Russell.
In closing he referred to the spirit of sec-
tionalism which had brooded over the Chi-
cago convention, which had ho place in a
national Democratic convention.
The resolution was adopted by a rising
vote, and Dr. Everett of Massachusetts, at
‘the request of the Bay State delegation,
took the stage and responded feelingly in
behalf of Massachusetts to this great trib-
ute to her distin uished son.
Mr. Savage 0 Kentucky said that there
was no more chance of Mr..Bryan carrying
Kentucky than of the Lord indorsing the
anarchistic teachings of the Chicago con-
vention.
John De Witt Warner of New York, a
former member of congress and a leader in
the Sound Money league, spoke for his
state. He declared that, although New
York Democrats were strong partisans,
they did not believe that party loyalty re-
. quired a man to be a. weathercock to find
out where he was going, and that, although
some New York Democrats believed. it to
be their duty to vote for McKinley, they
were not in the delegation to this conven-
tion nor in the masses which the delega-
tion represented. New York Democrats
were equally opposed to the legitimate Re-
publicanism found in the Republican camp
and the bastard Republicanism drawn
from the Democracy.
' F. W. Lehman. a portly, smooth faced
Missourian, told the convention that Mie-
souri stood for equal opportunities for all
and special privileges to none.
Thai Platform.
The platform is in part as follows:
“This convention has assembled to up-
hold the principles upon which depend the
honor and welfare of the American people
in order that Democrats throughout the
Union may unite their patriotic efforts to
avert disaster from their country and ruin
ifrom their party.
“The Democratic party is pledged to
equal and exact justice to all men of every
creed and condition; to the largest free-
dom of the individual consistent with
good government; to the preservation of
the federal government in its constitu-
tional vigor and to the support of the
states in all their just rights; to economy
in the public expenditures; to the main-
tenance of the public faith and sound
money, and it is opposed to paternalism
and all class legislation.
“The declarations of the Chicago con-
vention attack individual freedom,‘ the
right of private contract, the independence
Of the judiciary and the authority of the
president to enforce federal laws. They
advocate a reckless attempt to increase the
. price of silver by legislation, to the debase-
GENERAL JOHN 0. BLACK.
ment of our monetary standard, and
threaten unlimited issues of paper money
by the government. They abandon for Be-
publican allies the Democratic cause of
tariff reform to court the favor of protec-
tionists to their fiscal heresy.
' “In view of these and other grave de-
partures 'from Democratic principles, we
c’annot support the candidate of that con-
7vention, nor be bound by its acts. The
Democratiic party has survived many de-
feats, but could not survive a victory won
in behall of the doctrine and policy pro-
claimed in its name at Chicago. '
“The conditions, however, which make
possible such utterances from a national
convention are the direct result of class
legislation by the Republican party. it
still proclaims, as it in” "'

rears, the'
and maintain prices by law, and it pro-
\
poses no remedy for existing evils excop’
Oppressive and unjust .taxation.
“The national Democracy as recon-
vened hcre therefore renews its declara-
tion of faith in Democratic principles, '
especially as applicable to the conditions
of these times.
“Taxation, tariff, excise or direct, is
rightfully imposed only for public pur-
poses and not for private gain. Its amount
is justly measured by public expenditures,
which should be limited by scrupulous
economy. The sum derived byvthe treas-
ury from tarifi and excise levies is affected
by the state of trade and volume of con:
sumption. The amount required by the
treasury is determined by the appropria-
tions made by congress. The demand of the
Republican party for an increase in tarifl
tax has its pretext in the deficiency of rev-
enue which has its causes .in the stagna-
tion of trade and reduced consumption,
due entirely to the loss of confidence that
has, followed the Populist threat of free
coinage and depreciation of our money and
the Republican practice of extravagant
appropriations beyond the needs of good
government. We arraign and condemn the
Populistic conventions of Chicago and St.
Louis for their co-operation.
“With the Republican party increasing
these‘conditfons, which arepleaded in jus-
tification of a heavy increase of burdens of
the people and a further resort to protec-
tion, we, therefore, denounce protection
and its ally, free coinage of silver, as
schemes for the personal profitof a few at
the expense of the many, and oppose the
two parties which stand for these schemes
as hostile to the people of the republic,
whose food and shelter, comfort and prop-
erty are attacked by higher taxes and de-
preciated money.
“The experience of mankind has shown
that, by reason of their natural qualities,
gold is the necessary money.”
The free coinage of ether is denounced
and the Democratic money plank adopted
at Chicago is violently attacked, as is also
the declaration concerning federal judges.
Bryan Speaks at Adrian.
ADRIAN, Mich., Sept. .—-Candidate
Bryan left Toledo and arrived here over
the Lake Shore early today. Some 3,000
people were awaiting him. He was escort-‘
~ed to a flat car by L. H. Salisbury, who
introduced him as the “Black Eagle of
Nebraska.” Mr. Bryan said that later in
the campaign he expected to visit Michi~
gan more fully, because he expected Mich~
igan’s electoral vote, and he wanted to be-
come better acquainted with the people
who were to help in securing amajority in
the electoral college. Mr. Bryan urged
citizens to vote strictlytin accordance with
their best convictions, recognizing the re- ‘
sponsibilities of suffrage. Said he: “1 ex-
pect to lose the Votes of many DemOcrats
who believe the gold standard necessary to
the country’s welfare. But if I must lose
the Democrats who want the gold stand-
ard to prevail until foreign nations come
to our relief I think I am entitled to the
support of every citizen of every party who
believes that the American people’ are able
to work out their own salvation. ”
Mr. Bryan mounted the rear platform of
his train as it moved away, many running
behind to shake his hand.
THE PHILIPPINE TROUBLE. t
Signs of Insurrection In Many Places—An
Attack on General Blanca.
MAD-RID, Sept. 4.—An official dispatch
from Manila, capital of the Philippine is-
lands, announces that 3,000 insurgents
hnvooollocted at (invite. The troops. have
routed 500 insurgents at Baccore, killing
14 of them and capturing 18. Re-enforce-
ments have been summoned from Nue
Vacciga. Signs of insurrection are appar-
ent at Balacan, Pampanga and Batangas.
Rumors are current here to the effect
that the leaders of the uprising in the
Philippine islands are Germans who com-
prise the executive committee of a secret
society which is alleged to be responsible
for the whole trouble. It is further stated
that a pamphlet hostile to Spain, which
has been circulated among the inhabitants
of the Philippine islands, was printed in
Germany. ‘
In the chamber of deputies the Carllsts
made a vigorous attack upon the lack of
foresight of General Blanca, captain gen-
eral of the Philippine islands, expressing
the opinion that he is as fully deserving of
censure as was General Calleja, the former
captain general of Cuba, -in the course
Which the latter adopted previous to the
insurrection in Cuba and after outbreaks
had occurred in that island.
Comment on the Hammond Interview.
LONDON, Sept. 4.—The Standard, com-
menting upon the statement of John
Hays Hammond, says editorially: “We
fail to see that Dr. Jameson Was under any
obligation to remove, the impression of
cowardice created by the Johannesburg re-
formers' own conduct. With becoming
generosity he assumed the full responsi-
bility for the raid. Many hard things have
been said of the reform leaders, but noth-
ing so damning as the defense set up by
Mr. Hammond.” ' '
Terrible Earthquake In Japan.
YOKOHAMA, Sept. 4.—Much alarm is

sons are reported to have been killed/while
