REPUBLICANS or NEW YORK. ll‘he Ex—Senator Appears to Have the In- side Track—Chairman Butler Says That the Populists Will Stick ’ to Candidate Watson. SARATOGA, Aug. 25.—“Iam of the same mind today as I was last night, when I told the press that I was not a candidate for the office of governor and that I would not accept the office,” said Thomas C. Platt as he arose from the breakfast table. The statement in itself was emphatic enough, but still did not succeed in put- ting an end to the campaign of Mr. Platt’s friends, headed by Edward Lauterbach, Cornelius Van Cott and Representative Quiss- . “ r. Platt does not want the‘ nomina- tion,” said Mr. Quigg, “but the nomina- . city. They can’tget them. tion wants Mr. Platt.” “Mr. Platt has said that he will not ac- cept the nomination, ” said Hamilton Fish, one of the candidates, “and I believe he means it. If, however, his name is men- tioned, mine will be withdrawn.” The situat’yn today is very similar to that existing here the day 'befcre the Dem- ocratic state convention of 1894. Mr. Platt finds himself in the same relative position as was Senator Hill at that time, not de- siring the nominatiOn, but having it forced upon him. But it cannot be altogether distasteful to Mr. Platt. The fact that Messrs. Roberts of Buffalo, Sexton of Wayne, Belden of Syracuse—in fact, all those who have heretofore been looked up- on as the leaders in opposition to‘ Mr. Platt’s policies—favor his nomination has certainly pleasedhim, and the one note of discontent coming from a prominent leader . .‘ THOMAS C. PLATT. in the McKinley league, to the effect that while Mr. Platt’s nomination would not be objected to he would receive attention not of a favorable character at the polls, has served to accentuate rather than to depreciate the attempt to nominate him. Mr. Lauterbach said pointedly‘this morn- ing, “It certainly would be presenting the issue squarely to the people to nominate Mr. Platt, and those who are opposed to him could display their actual strength!’ ‘ ‘Platt and McKinley. . \ Then, too, there is an element of nation- alism in the proposition to name Mr. Platt. ‘ It is contended that Mr. Platt’s being on the ticket with Mr. McKinley Would com- pel a thorough support of the national Re- publican candidate by the state organiza- tion, and that the difference in the num- ber of votes cast for the state and national candidates would display each man’s rela- tive strengt or weakness. ‘ One of r. Platt’s very closest friends said: “Mr. Platt will not accept the nomi- nation. He is too shrewd a man to be de- ceived by hand strokes and proffers of as- sistance from temporarily cordial enemies. He hasn’t forgotten that the same tender of assistance was made to J. Sloat Fassett in 1891, and he has also not forogtten the kind of support Fassett got.” Ex-Senator Fassctt is here, and he said: “Mr. Platt would probably get as warm 3 reception from the enemies of the state organization as I got. In any event, it is not a propitious time for Mr Platt’s name to be presented, as the national campaign managers would throw the bntirerweight of the state campaign on his shoulders.” It is not to be supposed that the other candidates are feeling entirely pleased over this possible overthrow of their plans. On the surface the fight has narrowed down to Mr. Fish and Mr. Aldridge, with a smaller possibility of a dark horse than at any time since the canvass began. Of the eight other candidates at least six are merely in the nice with the hope‘of captur- ing the lieutenant governorship. Mr. Fish is very firm in his conviction that he will be the nominee if Mr. Platt’s name is not presented. And there are others who agree with him, pointing to the significant fact that the New York leaders who stand close to Mr.1'latt are for him, thisfibeing taken as an indication that Mr. Platt is favorable to Fish. Mr. Platt, however, sticks to his determina- tion not to make known hischoice. Mr. Aldridge’s followers assert emphatically that they can capture a number of Mr. Fish’s votes on the second ballot. They say that Mr. Fish cannot get'all the New York city delegates he claims. On the contrary, Mr. Fish said: “The Aldridge people are claiming 70 votes in New York . They cannot get over 45 votes at most." - Representative Frank Black of Troy, Comptroller James A. Roberts and James W. Wadsworth are placed among the can- didates who hope that lightning will strike them. ” What Platt’s Enemies Allege. A‘n antiePlatt man said this afternoon: “The only chance the Democrats have to carry the state of New York is for the Re- publicans to nominate Tom Platt. He would poll fewer votes than any one of the candidates mentioned. Platt’s nomi- nation is certain to bring great joy and unbounded confidence—to the Demo- crats.” - A prominent Democrat said that he would prefer to [see Platt win, “for,” said he, “we could beat him easily at the polls in November.” Will Stick to Watson. WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.—Speaking of Mr. Watson, the Populist nominee for vice president, Senator Butler, the chairman of the Populist executive committee, said that he noticed a decided change in senti- ment toward Mr. Watson, not onlyamong the POpulists in the west, who favored Mr. Sewall, but also among the silver Demo- crats cf the south. “I think,” he said, this is, tne‘ beginning or a change that will continue until the day of election. Probably at no place in the south is this going on more rapidly than in Georgia, Mr. Watson’s own state. The outlook now Is that he will carry Georgia even if the Democrats elect their state ticket. This :hange is also very marked in myyown state of North Carolina, and the outlook T HE E \‘ifllx' r; is that Watson will get the electoral vote , of that state.” - . “ “To what do you attribute this change in sentiment?” he was asked. “The feeling in this direction has been growing no doubt since the People’s Party national convention. The action of our aommittee on last Thursday in giving out the positive statement that 'Bryan and Watson would be our candidates beyond jucstion until the day of the election was she occasion that has called. forth the ex- pression of sentiment that no doubt exist- ad before.” ” . “To what do you attribute the growth of the sentiment after the convention?” “To the action of the convention itself. Every fair minded man honestly for silver Ind who puts silver above party, but who Is satisfied with the Chicago platform and 'ticket, realized as soon as‘ our convention adjourned that we had improved on the Chicago ticket. The action of our conven- tion showed conclusively that the People’s Party was patriotic and put the cause of financial reform even above party itself. if the People’s Party had nominated a straight ticket and had then offered to the Democrats, in order to make victory cer- tain, to take down our presidential candi- date if they would take down their vice presidential candidate, so as to form a co- ' operatiye ticket, the Democrats would have jumped at the proposition and every one would have said it was fair, unselfish and patriotic. The fact that we did not take such action for trading purposes, but it once took the high and patriotic posi- tion that Bryan was as good a silver man as we could nominate, and therefore we would nominate him, but failed to nomi- nate Mr. Sewall for the reason only that he does not represent what Mr. Bryan represents, has commended the People’s Party to every fair minded voter of Amer- lca opposed to the single ‘gold standard. “It puts it in a position where the least failure of the Democrats to carry out their pledges, if they should go into power, would make the People’s Party a great op- position organization to the gold standard in 1900, and practically wipe the Demo- :ratic party out of existence.” - Senatorial Candidate Against Bryan. JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Aug. 25'.—J_ohn E. Hartridgo, who represented this county in the state Senate, and who is a leading :andidate to succeed United States Senator Call, has bolted Bryan and the Chicago platform. In a card, which Will be pub- lished tomorrow, Senator Hartridge says in part: _ “I decline to. follow Mr. Bryan out of the Democratic party and refuse to sup- port doctrines that I believe tend to an- archy, oppression and disaster to the extent of actually imperiling the perpetuity of the government itself. I am upalterably op- posed to the salient features of the Chicago platform. “I believe that the free and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 without international agreement is fraught with danger alike to the wage earner and to the capitalist, that it is un- democratic, without reason and dishonest, and that its adoption by this country with- out regard to other nationswill lead, so far as we are concerned, to silver mono- metallism. I cannot reconcile» myself to the idea that, rapine, murder and arson may devastate a state till all commercial |ntercourse with other states is stopped, without the national government having the power to interfere, because an anarch- istic governor refuses to make the request. And yet I must adopt such notions as these if I give my heart and hand to the’ platform as shaped by the political harpies who gathered\ and spread their poisoned wings over the committee on resolutions and platform at Chicago. This I cannot and will not do, and I shall strive to the utmost to prevent Florida‘s electoral vote going to Bryan and Sewall.” Senator Hartridge claims to have a large follovving. He says that in every town of the state gold standard clubs, composed of leading Democrats, have been formed. Some of these clubs already have more than 100 members. now at St. Lucie, is quoted as saying that he believes Florida can be carried for Mo- Kinley. Secretary Morton’s Position. OMAHA, Aug. 25.—A special to The Bee says: Secretary J. Sterling Morton has written a letter to L. M. Martin of Des Moines, national committeeman for Iowa "of’tho gold standard Democratic organiza- tion, which will probably have the effect of causing the Iowa gold standard conven- tion to indorse him for president. Merton ' was invited to the convention to address it. There has been a move among the gold Democrats to indorse his candidacy, and in view of this the letter he writes is re- i Senator Quay, who is . garded as equivalent to an announcement ' of his willingness to accept it. He ex- presses regret that he cannot address them, and concludes: “It is a strange thing that any farmer or other citizen of the state‘of Iowa, which has neither silver mines nor gold bullion, who buys money with cereals and meats Shdl’d insist on being paid 31-. ways only 16 ounces of silver instead of an ounce of gold. When they collect their dues from those who have, purchased their products, why are they unwilling to ac- sept 32 ounces of silver instead of 16‘for 1 ounce of gold. Dealers in bullion will give only 1 ounce of gold for 31 or 32 ounces of silver. Do the farmers and other citizens of the northwest know more about the real value of silver than those men who deal in the precious metals?” . Bryan Leaves Red Hook. UPPER RED HOOK, N. Y., Aug. 25.— Candidate Bryan, accompanied by Mrs. Bryan and Private SecretaryflCuti-ight,‘ left Red Hook at noon today 'to begin his bomeward journey to Lincoln. Mr. Bryan has gained flesh during his week’s sojourn and is in high spirits, inspired particular- ly by the approaching meeting with Sena- ior Hill, Chairman Hinkley and other Democratic leaders, which he" expects will result in asaurances of the practically solid support of the state organization. The party drove to Rhineclifl, where they cross- ed the river to continue their journey to Winpesook Lodge, where they were to spend the night'with Mr. Hinkley. Much of the time of the past three or four days has been spent by Mr. Bryan working on his letter of acceptance. The document will not be so long as his Madison Square Garden speech, nor will it be given to; the public until Mr. McKinley’s acceptance has been 'published. _ Fifteen Injured In a \Vreck.

Owing to the illness of Mme-Cornelius Van- derbilt there had been nothing up to the present time except the arrival of guests to indicate that ' anything unusual was about to happen at The Breakers. Now, howover, everything is changed. There has been a great bustle about the big house, a hurrying to and fro of mes- sengers, a scrambling about of servants, and all the signs apparent at an event which is of sufficient note to cause New- port society to lay back on its cars and Wait its fulfillment. Out on board W. K. Vanderbilt’s yacht, the Valiant, which is to convey the bridal pair from here to some point on the sound where a special train may be had to Lenox, there is a correspond- ing activity. , . ‘- ' There is a great burnishing of brasses, polishing of decks and genera! houseclean- ing, which has caused the beautiful craft absolutely to glitter. As might have been expected where. a bride with a dowry of $5,000,000 is wedded to a young man who is to start off in life with an equal amount. in cash, bonds and stock, besides being in possession of two splendid houses, the marriage awakens a great interest. Newporters feel very kindly toward the Vanderbilts, who have been identified with the interests of the towu for 15 years, and. are equally well disposed toward young Mr. Whitney; whose unpretentious man- ners have made him many friends here. The wedding will take place at noon in the drawing room of The Breakers. This is one of the largest rooms on the ground floor on the south side. The bridal party will come down the grand stairway from the second floor, the bride and bridesmaids coming down one side and the bridegroom, his best man and ushers coming down the other. The bridal party will meet on the first landing and come down the remaim ing 21 steps together and will then walk across the main hall into the drawing room, where they will be met at the door by'Blshop Potter and the Rev. Dr. George J. McGill, rector of Trinity church. -Interesting Details. An altar of flowers will be erected in the bay window of the drawing room, where the ceremony will be performed. The music for the ceremony will be‘fur- nished by the pipe organ. Miss Vanderbilt will wear a dress of white watered silk, with old duchess lace and pearl trimmings. She will carry a bunch of pink roses. During the ceremony Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt will sit in his invalid chair alongside the altar. It will be necessary for him to be rolled down in— to the room in his chair. Immediately after the ceremony, which will be very brief, the bridal party and guests will adjourn across the hall‘to the fast. will be served. After the wedding breakfast Mr. and Mrs. Whitney will be driven to the New York Yacht club wharf and taken aboard the Valiant. The Val-‘ lant will steam down the sound toNeW' London, New —Haven or Wilson’s Point, where a special trainvwill be in waiting to convey the party to the'Bcrkshire hills. It is believed that President Cleveland will be present at the wedding. Nearly ev- erypmember of the Vanderbilt family will be present, with the exception of Mr. and Mrs. James A. Burden, Jr., who are now abroad. Needless to say, Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jr., will not attend the wedding. The circumstances attend- ing their marriage, which Mr. Vanderbilt had so strenuously opposed, are a matter of recent history. As yet there is little pros- pect of a reconciliation-between the father and son. This circumstance and Mr. Cor- nelius Vanderbilt’s illness will render the coming ceremony a quieter and less grand one than it otherwise would be. As it is only relatives and the most intimate friends of the family have been invited. To the general public at least the main. point of interest in the marriage of Miss Gertrude Vanderbilt and Mr. Henry Payne Whitney, which is to be celebrated tomor- row, is undoubtedly the spectacle of the union of two colossal fortunes. Quiet though the wedding will be in itself, mil- lions of money will be represented at it, will be the bride. and, except one, the bride- maids will all be heiresses to immense for- tunes. A fortuno will be represented in the very trousseau itself. ' Miss Vanderbilt’s dowry has, it is be- lieved, been fixed at $5,000, 000. The wed- ding presents from the family amount in value to about $500,000. As has been said, the trousseau alone is worth a fabulous sum of money. A country seat in the Berkshire hills is to be established by Mr. William C. Whit- ney for his son, and it is understood that Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt will build a town house. for his daughter, but as yet nothing definite is known of it. The wed- ding is to be quietly celebrated at The Breakers, Mr. Vanderbilt's Newport home, . and it is believed that Bishop Potter will perform the ceremony. Wealthy Bridesmaids. 0f the bridesmaids Miss Emily Vander- bilt Sloane and Mi Lila Sloane are first cousins of the bri . . Their mother, Mr. William Douglas Sloane,_is a daughter of the late William H. Vanderbilt, from whom she inherited $10,000,000, a fortune which has increased considerably. It will be evenly divided, as will their father’s fortune, between the five children. An- other cousinxof Miss Vanderbiltzwho will be a bridesmaid at her wedding is Miss Edith Shepard. She is engaged to be mar- ried to Mr. Ernesto G. Fabri in November, and her fortune will, it is believed, be not less than 3those of her cousins, the Misses Sloane. . Miss Angelica Gerry, whose for- tune will probably amount to something in the region of $15,000,000, and Miss Minnie Taylor, who may inherit- $6,000,.~ 000 or $7,000,000, are likewise included bilt has selected to attend her. The only one among all her bridemaids who cannot be described as a great heiress is Miss A’iny Bend, daughter of Mr. George If Bend. . Receiver-For. the Manon.
