Chosen by the Pennsylvania State
Democratic Committee.

HIS PROMISE ON ACCEPTING.

Faction Opposed to Harrlty Offered 3 Set
of Resolutions—President Cleveland's
Stand on lIIoney Question Is
\Varmly Commended.

HARRISBURG, April 18.—The state Dem-
ocratic committee met here today to select
a chairman. There Were only six absen-
tees out of 89 committeemen in anticipa-
tion of a fight between rival factions of
the party. After the calling of the roll
Chairman Stranahan announced that the
election of a chairman was in order. John
W. Gorman of
Nanticoke named
Robert E. Wright
of Allentown.‘ N 0
other nominations
being made,
Wright was chO-.
sen by acclama-

tion. James A.
M c C or t b y o f
Northumberlnnd .

W. K. Myers of
Dauphin and R.
W. Linton of Som-
erset were ap-
pointed a. committee to wait on the chair-
man and present him before the commit-
tee. After a short wait the committee ap-
peared with Mr. Wright, who was received
with enthusiastic applause. He was then
introduced to the assemblage by Mr.
Stranahan. The new state chairman said
he would try to be the leader of the whole
party and not the representative of any
faction. He pledged himself to work faith-

 

 

fully and earnestly for the success and
unity of the Democratic party. A vote of
thanks was tendered to James A. Straus-
han, the retiring chairman.

The time and place of holding the next
state convent-ion were left to the executive
committee. A reenlntion was adopted in- I
dorsing the financial policy of President .
Cleveland and approving his efforts to
maintain a safe, sound and stable curren-
cy. The election of division chairmen was
ratified by the committee.

Anti-Harrity Resolutions.

The faction of the state Democracy cp-
posed to the leadership of William F. Har-
rity gave expression to their sentiments
in the following resolutions, which were
prepared by the committee appointed for
that purpose and adopted at a meeting
held this morning:

Whereas, The organization of the Democratic
party in the state Of Pennsylvania has reached
a state of demoralization that fails to com-
mand the popular support and confidence of
those who believe in the principles of the Dem-
ocratic party, causes for which are obviously I
due to machine dictation, to the ostracism of
all Democrats refusing submission to arbitrary ,
rule and to the unjustifiable use of federal pat- I
ronage.

Resolved, That no hopeful contest can be
made by the Democracy in PennsylVania so
long as the organization is maintained in its
present condition. The mass of the Democracy ‘
in overwhelming numbers have repeatedly in- .
dicated their refusal to follow such leadership
and especially repudiated it at the polls. Young '
men are being driven into the ranks of the op-
position, and a longer continuance of the pres-
ent organization will result in the utter anni-
hilation of the party as a political factor in our
commonwealth.

Resolved, That a complete organization em-
bracing all believers in Democratic principles
without regard to factional interests is the su-
preme and indispensable requirement for the
future welfare of the party, and to achieve this
end we pledge our earnest and continued en-
deavor and call upon all Democrats who place
the welfare of their party in the state and na-
tion above more selfish and personal success
to unite with us in a persistent contest until
this end be accomplished.

Resolved, That to subserve the best interest:-
of the Democracy and to carry out the views

 

 

 

herein ex rcssed we deem it inexpedicnt to
present candidate for chairman before this
committee.

Resolved, That Grover Cleveland is to be
commended for his courageous declaration in
favor of safe currency and sound money, and
that it is the sentiment of this committee that
the president voices the convictions of a large

majority of not only the Democrats of this .

state. but other thoughtful and patriotic peo-
ple of the commonwealth, and that a reorgan-
ization of the Democratic party in Pennsyl-
vania will enable those who believe in a safe
currency and sound money to do a hopeful
battle against national dishonor and discredit.
Division Chairmen Elected.

Prior to the meeting of the commit—
tee today representatives of the nine divi-
sions met at state headquarters and elect—
ed these division chairmen: First, John
A. Magoo, New Bloomfield; second, Thom-
as J. Burke, Altoona; third, Cir-Senator
W. B. Dunlap. Beaver; fourth, William

Black Gowns the Reigning Favorites at

Tailor Coats.

for Blouse New Materials for

Black gowus are the reigning favorites
at present, and will continue to take the
lead throughout the early spring months.
Black satins, both figured and plain, dia-
mantine moires, crepons, and various
kinds of rough wool goods are being
made up into spring gowns, with the
customary fancy waists combined with

.or entirely made of a contrasting color.

Tailor gowns of black cloth are very
fashionable and especially suitable for
these Lenten days. And, like those of
mixed tweeds and light colors, they are
made with the short, tight fitting coat,
which is worn over blouses of lace or soft
silk or chemisettes of white batiste,
trimmed with rows of cream Valen-
ciennes lace.

.A novelty in blouses is made double
breasted and fastened with buttons well
over on the left shoulder, tapering of!
toward the waist, where it is gathered
full into a belt. A turn over collar com-
pletes the neck. This style of collar,
however, is not the exclusive peculiarity
of the blouse waist, for it is seen on
dresses as well.

Bishop sleeves are much used for the
blouse waists and are easily managed
under the coat.

Some tailor dresses have the extreme
full skirts, while others are more moder-
ate in size, but in either case they are cut
short enough to clear the floor.

 

The new materials for tailor coats, to
be worn with any and every gown, are
heavy tweed-s in which several colors are
prettily blended, and the covert cloths in
all the pale shades of tan and gray. They
are made quite short, with some fulness
in the back. The front may be either
single or double breasted, and is finished
with the usual revers.

Fancy vests of pique and bright color~
ed vesting are shown with the new tailor

.gowns, and are very similar to those

worn last- season.

Street dresses of plain cloth, not tailor
made, have sleeves and bodice like the
skirt. One made of. light tan cloth has a.
very full, plain skirt, a plain waist with
a. full blouse front, which pinches a little
over the belt, of bright plaid silk, and is
made whole to fasten on the shoulder and
under the arm. The belt fastens at the
back under a. full, short bow, and the
neck band is of dark red velvet, of one of
the shades in the plaid. Over this is a.
turn down ’ collar of white batistc
trimmed with rows of narrow cream lace.
Cufis of this material turn back over
the red velvet cuffs which finish the
sleeves.

 

One of the marked features of the pres-
out fashions is the use of one material
over another so that both can be seen.
‘And semetimes three materials are em-
ployed, as, for example, lace over chifion
for a blouse waist and these made over
satin. or silk.

The fancy for silk waists fitted close
and covered with guipurc lace is 'still
with us, and here is a model for any dark
shade of silk. The lace is cut out in the
neck like a. pinafore and' edged around
with jet. The collar and belt areof vel-
vet,’and straps of velvet beginning at the
belt in the back are brought around un-
der the arms to the front where they end
in three loops clasped with a jet
buckle. . ‘

Silk tissue, such as was worn years ago
has appeare’d'again and is delightfully
soft and pretty for fancy waists.

Apretty afternoon dress is of-mauvc
brocaded silk, made with a. blouse and
apron panel of pale yellow accordion
plaited silk muslin, over yellow silk.
Mauve satin forms the belt, bow and col-
lar. and lace epaulets fall over the
sleeves—N. Y. Sun.
