St. Loufs has gone to 3 in dead earnest to secure the Demooratic National Con- vention. Nearly all the moiey needed is pledged, a powerful committee is how f ing to go to Washington and present this city’s claims to the National Committee, which meets there on the 16th, and nine votes are pledged to St. Louis om the first ballot. All} of this is very encouraging to those who have given time and attention to the mat- ter, and they now view the prospects of St. Louis with a confidence equal to that which they felt at the similar stage of the fight which woh the Republican con- vention, The votes that are pledged to St. Loui come from Louisiana, Virginia, West Vir- gina, Mentana, Todinn Territory, Missouri, ansas, Kentucky and Colorado. e two Virginias would be naturally considered al- lies of some city nearer to their borders under ordinary political conditions, but the most positive assurances have en Te. ceived from their committeemen that they will vote for St. Louis for considerations entirely extraneous to those which usually determine persons in making up their minds on such subjects. The Montana committee. man, Hon. A. J. Davidson of * is particularly enthusiastic in behalf of St. Louis. He has written a letter to a friend here saying that he will vote for St. Louis “first, last and all the time.” National Committeeman J. @. Prather, ex- Gov. D. R. Francis and State Chairman C. C. Maffitt will leave St. Louis to-night in order to reach Washington in time to make a good survey of the field before the Na- tional Committee meets to have the campaign well mapped out for the full com- mittee of St. Louisans who will follow them on Sunday night. Committeeman Robert L. Owen of Indian r who is now a res- ident of St. Louis, will 89 ny the com- mittee from this city, as will also Commit- teeman O, T. Holt of Texas, who is not yet committed to any of the rival cities. A tel- egram has been received from Gov. W. J. Stone accepting the invitation sent him last night to accompany the — c ommittee to Washington, and saying he will reach St. Louis Sunday morning to be ready to join a at the Union Station n It is asserted positively that he will Washington to supplement St. Louis’ ven oris unless the affairs of the executive depart- ment of the State government are in such condition that he can’t leave Missouri. Other members of the 1 Will prob- ably be S. M. Kennard, C. D. MeLure, C. C. Rainwater, C. P. Ellerbe and W. H. Thomp- son. Col. Griff Prather said said to a Post-Dispatch reporter this morning: “Gov. Francis, Gen. Maffitt and myself leave to-night to do the very a. we can for St. Louis. I am not at all certain that we are going to + the convention because of the strong fight being made for it by New York, e silver interests, of course, do not want it to be held east of the Allegheny Mountains and will perhaps be strong enough to locate it on this side.
