, ‘ INDIANAPOLIS AAAAA. ~THDLEVENINoeoAZETTa. ___..._.—-— Gold Standard. Democrats Gathering at the Hoosier Capital. DISCUSSION ou PLATFORM A Difference of Opinion as to Declaration of Principles—A ’Little Boom For Cleveland, Though W'atter- 0 son Is \Vell In the Lead. INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 2.—Delegates to the Democratic national convention came in at a lively rate last night and today from all quarters of‘ the Union, and three- fourths of them are now present. They are bringing a throng of visitors in their wake, all of whom are greatly interested in the movement, and the indications point to as large an attendance as was an- ticipated. The hotel corridors were "com- fortably well filled at an early hour, and the familiar bustle and buzz of a national political gathering was noticeable. Much enthusiasm is manifested. The boom. for the nomination of Mr. Cleveland, which was started last night by Hugh Wallace of Washington state, is being discouraged by the president’s friends, who say he would not necept. Comptroller of the Currency Eckels is doing all he can to keep down this Cleveland sentiment, which, it is feared, may at any time develop and sweep the convention. _ Mr. Eckels has taken a position in favor of Senator Vilas’ nomination. Mr. Outh- waite of‘ Ohio, one of the delegates at large from the Buckeye State, not only says he HENRY WATTERSON. does not think Mr. Cleveland wants or would accept the nomination, but that in his opinion it would be unwise to place him at the head of the ticket. “This is a great movement,” said he, “for-the salvation of the true Democracy, and in my opinion it would be a mistake to nominate any one whose selection might divert attention from the real issue. Mr. Cleveland's nomination would undoubted- ly raise the third term cry, even though there'was no chance of his election, and we should steer clear of anything that might have a tendency to embarrass the great work we have to do. ” A disposition is developing in the east, which is claimed to be safe for gold, to al- low the middle, western and doubtful bor- der states to select the candidates. Wattarsdu In the Lead. A majority of Iowa, Illinois, Ohio, Ten- nessee and Alabama delegations seem to be for Watterson, and consequently the Blue Grass editor and orator seems to have an undoubted lead. , , J. M. Falkner of Alabama, who is very firm in the opinion that the ticket nomi- nated here will carry his state, is 'one of the active Watterson advocates. His argu- ment is that Watterson would take the stump and rally the gold Democrats with electrifying speeches. Should the nomina- tion go to Watterson a northern man would be named for vice president, probably Bragg of Wisconsin, Judge Moran of Chi- cago or David Lawlor of Minnesota. Some of Mr. Cleveland’s friends, with the mem- ory of Mr. Watterson’s famous prediction before the hicago convention of 1892 that if Cleveland were nominated “the Womocracy would go through a slaughter house to an open grave” ringing in their- .rs, are inclined to rebel against Watter- den and are again inclined to push Sen- l‘or Vilas forward. _ It is said by those in a position to know that the latter does not want the nomina- tion, but he could be used now as a foil for the present Watterson sentiment. 3y many it is believed that a new can- didate will be taken up, Outhwaite of bhio, Bynum of Indiana or some one else. Efforts are being made to induce Sen- ator George Gray of Delaware to reconsid~ or his flat footed decision not to accept the nomination, but apparently with no success as yet. There is in some quarters a feeling of resentment against Senator Gray because, as chairman of the gold Democratic conference at Chicago, he did not appoint the national committee, which he was empowered to name by that con- ference. His critics say he hesitated too long to be an available candidate in a ' crisis demanding bold and heroic action. Fight Over the Platform. It is already apparent that there will be a struggle over the platform. The sugges- tion that the platform be confined to a declaration on the money issue is not kind- ly received, and there is no question but that the platform will cover the whole sit- nation thoroughly and make a spirited re- ply to the declarations enunciated at Chi- cago. The executive committee is in pos- session of almost innumerable suggestions as to the money plank, but it is probable that the plank understood to have been drawn by Secretary Carlisle will be the one decided upon. The tariff plank will probably not be so radical as that adopted four years ago, but will be a clear declara- tion for a tariff for revenue only. . The two points on which there is likely to be a wide divergency of opinion are those relating to an income tax and our. renoy reform. ‘ The former is being advo- cated by Western and southern and the lat- ter by eastern delegates. The eastern del- egates are opposed to an indorsement of an income tax through a constitutional amendment and argue that if such aplank were adopted theDemccrats and Populist: could say with justice that the gold stand. ard men were seeking in an indirect way the very thing they are advocating directly. The plank in favor of the retirement oi- the greenbacks and the establishment of a new federal banking system giving the banks the povver of :issue under federal ‘ supervision, the banks to redeem their notes in gold and maintain a, sufficient gold reserve for that purpose, is being pressed by eastern delegates, but is‘meet ling with opposition in the west and south fivdertise in the Glznrrn e where thereis a strong sentiment againse the extension of the national banking sys- tem. . - . A Big Mass Meeting. Great preparations are being made for the mass meeting to be held tomorrow . night. The general public, which will not be able to secure admittance to the regular convention on account of the. limited num- ber of seats, will be given an opportunity . at this meeting to listen to the gold Dem- ocratic orators, and this meeting is expect- ed to be one .of the features of the gather- ing. A partial list of the speakers has been agreed upon, which includes I. R. Ehrich of Colorado, Charlton T. Lewis of New Jersey,-Edgar H. Farrar of Louisi- ana, W. C. P. Breckinridge of Kentucky and D. W. Lawlor of Minnesota, but it is likely that Colonel John R. Fellows and other prominent orators will also make addresses. . ' The Situation In Idaho. - DENVER, Sept- 2.—A special to The Be- publican from Boise City says Senator Dubois, Congressman Wilson, J. H. Haw- ley, a prominent Democrat, and S. B. Hayes, ex-chairman of the Democratic state committee, have gone to Poeatello to meet Mr. Johnson of Kansas, member of the Democratic national committee, who was sent to Idaho to arrange complete union of the silver forces. The conference will have a most important political hear- ing. Democratic and Populist leaders here are angry over Dubois’ appointment by Chairman Jones as a member of the advisory board and declare that the Dem- ocratic-Populist fusion ticket will not, as desired by the national committee, be hauled down to give place to the combina- tion ticket put up by silver Republicans. The national committee, it is claimed by the Dubois men here, will recognize the silver Republican ticket to the exclusion of all others. George Ainslee, Idaho’s member of the gold standard Democratic state committee, was asked by wire by Johnson to meet him in Pocatellc. Ains- lee replied that he had an office in Boise City and if Johnson wanted to see him he could find him there during business hours. Bryan Goes to Columbus. CLEVELAND, Sept. 2.—The Bryan party started for Columbus today, escorted by a delegation of Capitol City politicians who came here yesterday to attend the meeting. Before leaving the city Mr. and Mrs. Bryan held a short reception at the Hol- lenden. The first persons received were 36 or 40 members of the Bryan club of Be- publicans. In that party were Judge S. C. Parks, delegate to the Republican na- tional convention of 1856, a lifelong friend of Lincoln, who appointed him to the su- preme bench of Illinois in 1862; Judge J. H. MacMath, who was appointed minister to Marocco by President Lincoln; Colonel J. F. Herrick and ex-Senator W. P. Hack- ney, formerly of Kansas. Big crowds fol- lowed the party from the hotel to the pas- senger station. Senator Quayln New York. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 2.—Senator Quay left for New York this morning. He will go direct to national Republican head- quarters, where he will meet Chairman Hanna, and the part the junior Pennsyl vania senator is to take in the campaign will be made known to him. State Sena- tor Penrose, who is probably closer to Sen- ator Quay than any other Philadelphian, said today that senator Quay had not yet been put in control of the campaign in the cast, but that that matter would probably be one of the, subjects under consideration at the conference. . Legality of Bonds In Question. ALLEGHANY CITY, Pa., Sept. 2.—-—-The authorities of this city were startled by the declaration that probably all the bond issues for two yearshave been illegal. The sum involved is many millions of dollars.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 2.—Quiet now prevails here, and it is hoped that the den- The Turkish .ofl‘iolals are continuing the work of clearing the khans of the Armenians who have been hidden therein, and 'the for- eign consuls are supervising this work in order to see that the‘conditions prescribed by the representatives of the pcwers: are carried out. These conditions provide'that the consuls must consent to the entry‘Of the houses, but no Armenians can be ar- rested without the consent 'of the consuls, .and all arms and explosives will be handed over to the government. This search .of the houses of foreigners is irritating, but it is considered necessary if the return to anarchy is to be prevented. In many instances foreign flags are floating over the khans and the soldiers are in constant fear of having bombs thrown at them if they invade foreign property. The number of persons killed in Sun- day’s rioting at Hasskein is' estimated at 200. The owners of the houses which were looted are returning and have succeeded in getting some of their lost goods restored to them. _ Over 1,000 persons were massacred in the Psamatra district, 300 Armenians hav- ing been dragged out of their houses and murdered by one-khan alone. _ The Kurdish porters in the Constntino-' ple custom house killed their Armenian comrades during the late rioting and her ribly mutilated their bodies. The foreign families residing here con- tinue to hang from their windows the flags of their various nationalities. Baron de Calico, the Austrian embassador, has had several interviews with the sultan, who repeats his assurances that ample. measures have been taken to insure quiet. The porte will have a large amount of in- demnity to pay to foreigners whose houses and~ofiices have been looted. ' The success of the police in regaining control of» the city has been rewarded by the payment of their arrears of wages. ’ The Brazilian Ministerial Maddie.
