llcsn national convention in called to or-
der on Tuesday, it will be found that the
prollmlnurlcc have been looked after with
excaptlohul thoroughneu'. There will be
no obstacles in the way of immediately
beginning the work for which the con-
veiitlon is called. and present ludlcu~
tlcua are that the meeting will not be of
long duration. '
The convention ball will be in complete
readiness. The states are expected to have
their recommendations for committee
planks in rcadlncls by tonight. The no-
tjohul committee has cntlrcly concluded
the consideration of the unusually long
list of contests, and it ll bellevud by those
who have given attention to the nubject
that tlilii work will be found to bare been
done so well that little will be left for the
comml‘ttiib on or animals. Necessarily
there has bccn no formal consideration of
the declaration of principle: upon which
the party will make its appeal ,to the
country. but it will he found that this
branch of the work has by no mean: been
neglected. There has been a general ax-
chnngc of views upon this important point
v and much done looking to thc harmonize
thin and crystallization of views. which it
is believed. Will render it. possible for the
platform committee to reach a conclusion
wlth comparatively little delay.
Selection has been made of the tempo-
rary chalrmun and other ofliccrc of the
temporary organization and a programme
practically agreed upon for the permanent
organlzutlm. with Senator Thurston of
Nebraska for presiding olliccr of the con-
vcutlon.
The Convention "all.
The hall in which the convention will
be hold is ready for use. The decorations
are complete, and all that remains to he
done is the locating of the vurlnnii state
delegations, which is being attended to
today.
The convention hall. crccwd especially
for this occasion, is a plain rectangular
building. lH‘.’ by 2t12 foot, with up undi-
.torlum 100 by 200 foot for the use of the
delegates and alternates, and surrounding
this. tiers of rent: and a gallery all around
the building. The entire north side of the
ball will be occupied by the chairman. vice
presidents and members of the national
committee in the center, and the reporters
on each side. The. delegates are directly
in front of the chairman'- stand, in three
blookn of chairs, facing the chairman. For
the alternator spaces on each side of the
delegates are filled with chairs facing to-
ward the delegates and thus commanding
the but possible view of the . monitor's
stand. The central idea adopted in the
decoration of the hall is the Monroe doc-
trine. This is represented by a star bu feet
from tip to tip covered with hunting, and
immediately under it the national ensign

Quutlon of Hold and Silva-r.
Two problems present themselves. The
first of these is how much to do for silver:
the second. how little to do for gold.
Around tbciio questlcna range the Ipccula-
lion and the laterth of all.
Then lines of policy will be presented
to tho committee on resolutions“ upon
locating the different shades of opinion of
the llcll'flflltlfl. Tllt‘flO arc:
Flint—To declare to explicit terms for
the gold standard.
Sicondm—"l‘o take a pflfilElVO ntaml for
the free coinage of silver at the ratio of ill
to 1 independent of the course of all other
nations.
Third—To practically declare for gold
and agnlnct any further recognition to
other than the present lawn give except
upon international ugrcomciit, but with-
out mentioning ln lei-uni the gold utnndard
and with a few words of encouragement
to the friends of silver.
The mutant will be principally lmtween
the ndvocutcn of the "rat and recond prop-
mltlonu. and us it now appears the out-
comc will be a comprombie between tbmc,

will demand. The extreme gold forces will

dcncy on the first ballot hi practically use

The platform adopted by the convention
will declare for the gold ntnndnrd and for
the enactment of a high protective tariff.
There are H'J delegates who will vote
for a straightforward declaration in quor
of the single gold ctnndnrd. They will
only have to gain ll votes to be able to
make the financial pinch and thnplntforni

known that Mr. Plutt was intensely in-

advantage which the selection of his dolo-

ternilncd feeling of opposing aides to coat

seat in the convention unless he believed
he was cntltltxl to it lnduend members of
tho committee who believed the Platt

also badly mixed, and there were. room
here of the committee who thought both

It took but a few moments to decide the
question of further appeal in the contents.
It was the almost. unanimous theory that
no good could come of such an appeal, and
that ltnlmply mount delay for tho conven-
tion. The chairman of the New York state

come to the conventlon, aided in tbbi do-

to understand by persons in authority that
a plan had already been prepared by tho

any appeal by providing that a decision

Mr. Lauturiiacli said he had understood

by making an effort to reopen the contest.

startled and alarmed last night by the
noise of two successive explosions, which
shook the ground for a long distance and
wore heard for several mllcc Counterna-
tlcu prevailed for a time. at It was feared
that this war ii prelude to an attack or to
a aerles of similar explosions. Excited
throngs ruched to the streets, while an
aimed party proceeded in the direction
from which the detonation: had been
heard. lt‘wus coon found that the stone
bridges of Cristina and Conchu and the
aqueduct of Fernando Septlino were the
points that had Intlcred from the dyna-
mlto. he bridges were partially destroy-
ed. and the pipes on the aqueduct, upon
which the city is dependent for its water
supply, were much damaged. It cannot
yet be ntutcd how expensive in the damage
tune or hzw long it will require to remo-
ly it.
The windows in many houses in the
My were aliuttcrcd by the reverberation
of the explosion, and some market struc
lures wore ubio badly damaged.
There is no doubt felt that the dynamite
which caused this wreck was placed by
agents of the insurgents. It has been
their determinatidur. announced some
time since, to cut othhc water flllpply of
Havana, and so nerve toviiiakc it as nearly

The greatest apprehension is felt an ac.
count of the secrecy and effectiveness with
which the insurgents have been able to
carry out their plan of destruction.
Havana l’coplc‘ frightened.
But much anxiety is felt as to the fu-
~ture. It iii believed that the insurgents are
bent upon inventing Havana by cutting
