A Sensational Chicago Rumor Printed
in a New York Paper.

A PLAN OF MIDDLE RQADERS

A‘ Qui’et Day For the Democratic Candi-
date In Upper Red Hook—One Opin-
ion of Fusion In 'Missouri—The
Third. Ticket Movement.

NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—The Evening
Post prints the following special dispatch

from its Chicago correspondent: ,, »

Prominent Populists here say that if
Bryan fails to accept their nomination an-
other convention may be held, or a candi-
date may be named by a national commit-
tee. After the Populist convention the
middle of the road delegates selected a
provisional national committee to decide
upon a course of action should Bryan re-
fuse their nomination. Henry F. Call,
formerly of Kansas, but now of New York,
was chosen chairman, and that the com-
mittee is about to take some action seems
likely from the fact that a Chicago Popu-
list has received a letter from Mr. Call, in
which he requests the names and addresses
of prominent Populists who were opposed
to the nomination of Bryan and would be
in favor of substituting another candidate
in his place. It also asked information as
to the probable result of such action on the
part of the middle of the road Populists.
Chicago Populists of the middle of the
road tendencies believe that Candidate
Watson is in sympathy with the move-
ment and his recent attacks on Bryan
were made in ahticipation of such course.
Seymour F. Norton of Illinois, who was a
candidate opposed to Bryan at St. Louis,
is said to have been approached on the sub-
ject. He has given no sign, but it is ru-
mored that he is willing to accept.

Altgeld and Hinrichsen have told him
that he can have the nomination for an-
ditor on the Illinois Bryan Democratic
ticket, but he declined. it, and his friends
say that the reason may be found in his
belief that Bryan would withdraw or be
removed from the Populistic ticket.
Should Norton or some other man be nom-
inated it is believed that the Western Pop-
ulists wouldremain with Bryan and Sew-
all, while the southern and eastern mem—
bers of the party would support Norton
and Watson. Watson would lose nothing

'by this, as the Populists of the west will

vote for Bryan and Sewail electors in any
event.

The Third Ticket Movement.

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 22. —- The corre-
spondence of the executive committee of
the gold standard Democrats has grown to
enormous proportions within the past
week, and the indications for a. large gath-
ering at the convention of Sept. 2 continue
to grow. Chairman Bynum and his co-
workers are confident that not less than 38
states will be represented by full delega-

tions and believe that the convention is ,

likely to draw a crowd of from 5,000 to
10,000 persons. There was much gratifica-
tion expressed over the showing made by
the National Democrats in New York and
the calling of the New York conve tion
for Aug. 31. They are watching ith
much interest the state convention in Ken-
tucky. . .

The executive committee will hold 'its
next full meeting at the Grand hotel in
this city on Monday before, the convention,
and the national committee will meet at
the same hotel the next day to make up
the temporary convention roll. While the
appointment of temporary officers of the
convention will be made by the national
committee at its full meeting, the execu-
tive committee will probably recommend
such ofiicers, and there is talk of appoint-
ing Bourke ‘Cockran as either temporary
or permanent chairman.

It was arranged by correspondence yes-
terday that both Maryland and South Car-
olina should send full delegations, and Mr.

.Bynum now believes that the only states

not represented in the convention will be
Idaho, Utah and Nevada and possibly
Wyoming. though there are some prospects
of the last named sending delegates.

Idaho Agreement» For Fusion.

BOISE CITY, Aug. 22.——The Democrats
and Populists have agreed upon a basis of
fusion, and all that now remains is for the
Democratic convention to ratify officially
the agreement arrived at. The nomina-
tions will be distributed as follows:

To the 'Democrats, presidential elect-
crs, supreme court justices, governor, at-

torney general, treasurer, mine inspector;~

to the Populists, the legislature, senator,
congressman, lieutenant governor, secre-
tary of state, state auditor, superintendent
of public instruction.

The fusion idea was fought bitterly by
the middle of the road men, who had the
hearty support of Dubois and the other

- Republican bolters. The serious bone of

contehtion was the senatorship, and the
Duboisites several times came near dis-
rupting all the prearranged plans and
stampeding the conference. The result of
the prolonged conference has been to im-
bitter many of these who fought the fusion
with such dogged determination.

Among these is J. H. Hawley, a candi-
date for senator. When he learned that
the Democrats had agreed to give the Pop-
ulists the senator, he declared publicly
that he would take the stump against the
entire arrangement.

The convention will meet tomorrow and
commence the work of nominating the
combination ticket. In this conference
the Democrats have come ofi victors. ’

May Talk Politics In the Streets. '

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 22.—For ten days
a great crowd had collected on the post-
ofiice corner discussing the. financial ques—
tion of the present campaign.

The discussion frequently lasted until
midnight.” and as fast as one speaker
'wearie'd another filled the gap.

The police made numerous and futile ef-
forts to scatter the disputants, and finally
made several arrests. Twice the cases
came before Judge Cox of the city court,
end the last time, with much impatience,
he . discharged the defendants, holding
there Was no decision by any court, high
or low, where it is held that a man vio-
lates the law by discussing politics in the
street. . "

“On the contrary,”.conti_nued the court,
“all of the decisions are the other way.
The right of free speech is fundamental in
our constitution and must not be denied.
No police can stop it.- ' It, is the right oi
American citizens. This is a time when
perplexing questions are puzzling the peo-
ple. They are questions of vital impor-
tance to the common people. It is only by
ample discussion of the questions that

Iconfront them that they can learn properly
to exercise, their right of franchise. They

I.

 

 

 

'have—ths-right to discuss those questions,

and the court will protect them.”
The financial debates are still being
held.

Mr. Bryan's Quiet Day.

UPPER RED HOOK, N. Y., Aug: 22.—
Candidate Bryan laid out a quiet , day for
the next 24 hours. After he had worked
all the morning on his letter of acceptance
and his mails he spent the afternoon at a
nearby fishing resort. .

After reading the morning papeis today

 

' he'said that he had always believed that

the state Democrats would be true to the
party nominees. From Syracuse, Buflalo,
Rochester and Albany, he said, he had re-
ceived assurances of the support. of the
county Democrats and notification that
the arrangements in‘that locality are en-
tirely in charge of the Democratic county
committee. Mr. Bryan was shown-a morn-
ing paper which reported Mr. 'Croker’s in-
dorsement of the Chicago ticket; He said
he was gratified to find so muny eastern
Democrats falling in line, and added that
before the campaign closed he expected
the co-operation of all Democrats except
those whose pecuniary interest may be
better advanced by the gold standard. It
is said Dr. Jenkins of New York gave Mr.
Bryan intimation that Mr. Croker would
be with him. ‘ .

' Fusion In Missouri.

KANSAS CITY, Aug. 22.-——The Times
prints the following:

The prospects for fusion between the
Democrats and the Populists in Missouri
are very slim. At the recent meeting oi

 

the Democratic central committee Chair-

man Cook was instructed to see what the
Populists desire. ' It would seem from his
investigation that that particular wing of
the party which is now in control of the
state organization does not want to fuse,
to compromise or do anything which will
help the cause of free silver. Instead oi
patterning after the POpulists of Kansas,
they seem to belong to the Texas wing oi
the party. No reasonable proposition has
yet come from the Populists’ state central
committee, and there seems to be no reason
to believe that it ever intended for a mo-
ment to consent to anything within reason.

Nebraska Gold Democrats.

OMAHA. Aug. 22.—The gold Democrats
of Nebraska have named a delegation tc
the Indianapolis Convention. A confer-
ence of the state central committee and
leading Democrats to the number of near
ly 100 was held, presided over by Chair-
man Euclid Martin. Many speeches were
made, most of which favored a third ticket
and the naming of a state delegation tc
the national convention. It was the con-
census of opinion that a third ticket in
Nebraska Was necessary, not only to aid in
the defeat of Bryan, but also to preserve
the regular party organization in this state
after the issues of the present campaign
shall have been decided at the polls. Ev
ery delegate was pledged to vote for a gold
standard candidate for president, but no
preference was expressed.

Perhaps No Third Ticket.

TAYLORVILLE, Ills., Aug. 22.—Senato.
John M. Palmer says it lpoks now an
though the gold standard Democratic con-
vention would meet and adopt a platform
and then adjourn without naming a ticket?

“In that event what will the so called
sound money Democrats do—vote for Mo
Kinley or not at all?”owas asked.

”I think most of them will vote for Mo
Kinley. I would advise all of them to dc
so, ” he replied.

“Then you would rather have McKin-
ley and protection than. Bryan and free
silver?” ’

“Yes, I think protection is absurd, but
I would rather have McKinley on that is-
sue than risk Bryan and free silver.”

Louisiananold Democrats to Convene.

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 22.-——The gold
standard Democrats of New Orleans issued
a call for a state convention of sound
money Democrats to meet in this city or
Thursday, Aug. 27, for the purpose 0!
electing delegates to the Indianapolis con
vention. The call is headed by United
States Senator Gallery, and is signed by
60 of the leading Democrats of New Or-
leans. .Gold standard Democrats in eacl
parish of the state are requested to mac
and elect delegates.

The Arizona Populists.

PHENIX, Aug. 22.—The territorial Pop
,ulist convention nominated W. O’Neil for
delegate to congress and adjourned afte.
making preparations for a vigorous cam
paign. The platform, besides indorsing the
national nominations and favoring fret
silver, declares for statehood for Arizona
and reclamation of desert lands by govern
mental aid and objects to the present ir
rigation laws of the territory.

Democratic Fusion In California.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 22.—After three
and a half hours of' deliberation betweei
the conference committees of the People’:
Party, the Democratic party and the Silva]
league it was decided to fuse on presiden
tial electors, the Democrats to have fivr
for Bryan and Sewall and the Populist:
four for Bryan and Watson.

be in favor of Colonel Crofton. It i.

to remain in the army, but no one abou'

That and the Rapid. Movement of Grain ' ' ‘ "

Tend to Aid the Foreign Exchange
Syndicate—Money Withdrawals.
Failures of the Week. '

 

NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—R. G. Dun &
Co. ’5 Weekly review of trade says:

Political events of the, week had no
definite influence upon business prospects,
forthe phenomenal variations in sterling
exchange and the beginning-of imports of
gold, although following the great meet-
ing in Madison Square Garden on Tuesday,
may be fairly attributed to the accumulat-
ing excess of merchandise exports over im-

ports, to which attention has been repeat- ,

edly called, exports from New York for the
past two weeks having been 20 per cent
larger and imports here 21 per cent small-
er than last year. The rapid movement of
grain and the unusually early marketing
of cotton tend strongly to aid the banking
syndicate which has undertaken to regu-
late foreign exchanges. - - . ' .

Withdrawals of money to the interior
are rather large, and commercial loans are
hard to place, and this difficulty checks
many new enterprises and business in
many departments. Want of confidence
lies back of this restriction of loan, as
may be inferred from the failure of ofiers
of Bo'stou and New York city bonds, but
the immediate shoot of the speculative
failure at Chicago has passed, and the
stock market has slighty advanced, rail-
road stocks an average of .21 cents per
share, though trust stocks average 38 cents
per share lower. There has been no con-
siderable marketing of American securi-
ties held abroad, and the indications are
that London is more ready to buy than to
sell. Bank clearings are small; for the
week 15 per cent less than last year and 24
per cent less than in 1892. Railroad earn-
ings are not as good as might be expected
for the first half of August, exceeding
those of last year by only 3.4 per cent, but
falling 15.6 per cent behind those of 1892,
although the east bound tonnage from
Chicago for the same two weeks is larger,
than last year by 6 per cent and larger
than in 1892, though slightly smaller than
in 1894.

\Vheat, Cotton and Corn.

Speculation‘has advanced wheat about
1 cent during the week, corn a small frac-
tion and cotton 3. quarter, the principal
motive power being reports of injury to
growing crops. As before the unfavorable
accounts respecting wheat are " in some
measure discredited by , the continued
heavy movement from the farms, western
receipts having been 10,697,137 bushels in
two weeks against 6,759,363 bushels last
year, With prices 8 cents lower than last

year such a movement cannot be interpret- _

ed asa sign of deficient yield. The At-
lantic exports for the same weeks have
been, flour included, 4,892,660 bushels
against 2,995,233 last year, and while the
increase is encouraging, it scarcely corre-
sponds with current accounts of deficient
yield in some foreign countries. The
movement of corn continues heavy, al-
though the price is still so low that one
wonders why the product is put into cars
instead of into hogs. The alarm about
destruction of cotton has been most vigor-
ously worked here and abroad, and has
readily raised the price, although it is yet
to be seen whether the yield has been so
far diminished as to warrant a price nearly
a cent higher than a year ago. ' ,

The boot and shoe industry, which con-
tinues to lead all others in proportion of
hands employed, is nevertheless rapidly
nearing the end of past orders excepting in
women’s grain and buff shoes, of which
there are still orders for some weeks to
come, while others are constantly received,
but in other branches the new business is
light. Prices are a shade weaker, many
dealers refusing to pay the advances which
have been asked. The shipments from
Boston foi- three weeks have been 256,116
cases against 272,947 last year and 263,833
for the same weeks of 1894. Leather is
weaker, with a small demand, although
restricted supplies have caused a shade of
advance in some kinds. Hides at Chicago
averaged more than 3 per cent lower for
the week again, the fall in the past five
weeks having averaged about 25 per cent.
Some additional heavy failures in the lum-
ber-trade gall attention to the continuing
depression which appears to result, at letst
in part, from expectations entertained by
many that the unlimited increase in new
buildings during the last year or two
would be permanent.

Iron and Steel Industries.

The iron and steel manufacture has only
continued depression to report. 'Bessemer
pig has sold at $10. 40 at Pittsburg, while
Southern No. 1 is oiI'ered at prices equiva:
lent to $10 at New York, and nearly all
finished products are being sold below the
current quotations. There is rapid cur-
tailment of production, the Illinois Steel
company having only 7 of its 17 fur-
naces at work, but in spite of this the sup-
ply of finished products appears to greatly
exceed the demand for them. The one
bright spot is a sale of 9,000 tons steel rails
to Japan, for refitting railways in that
country, which makes an aggregate of
45,000 tons exported during the year.
Nothing encouraging can yet be said re-
garding the woolen manufacture, and the
demand for goods, even at recent reduc-
tions in prices, is still disappointingly
small. Sales of wool at the three chief
markets have been only 7,670,000 in three
weeks against 16,847,200 last year and
23, 361,400 in the same weeks of 1892. A
heavy auction sale of cotton goods brought
prices which were considered quite encour-
aging, and the current demand is fairly
maintained, although the mills are not
inclined to make large contracts for the
future in view of the rise in the raw ma-
terial In general the working force in
the textile branches does not appear to
have. increased.

Failures for the week have been 280 in
the United States against 222 last year,
and 27 in Canada against 43 last year. .
