HE'S HERE!—-WHO? ~GHMUNGEY DEER WILL PRESENT LEVI MORTON'S NAME TO THE CONVENTION. TRKES A CRACK AT TOM PLATT. Declares That New York Will Not Bolt and That Morton Will Refuse the Vice-Presigency. M. Depew, the biggest of New York’s “Big Four,“ arrived Saturday morn- ing in a private car. With him were his gon Buster“ and Miss Annie Depew Pauld- ing, a niece of the great railroad magnate. Dr. Depew is quartered in a stfite of rooms at the Southern Hotel in the southeast cor- ner of the parlor floor. When he came jaun- tily into the hotel to register his name he was instantly’ recognized by almogt every- one, and a perfect rush to get a good view of his features followed. After registering he proceeded immediately to his rooms. Dr. Depew’s presence here means a great deal, but judging from the tenor of his talk, it bodes no good to Thomas C, Platt, for Vice-President. When asked if Gov. Mor- ton would accept the place, he said: While on my way here Gov. Morton t on the train at Poughkeepsie and rode with me to Rhinebeck. e told me then that he 1 would not accept the second place on the ticket. That, 71 believe, is the very latest information that has been received from Mr. Morton on this point.“ Dr. Depew had a conference with Mr. Platt soon @fter his arrival. He showed the New York leader the telegram from Gov. Morton announcing that under no consider- ation could he be a candidate for Vice- President. After the conference Mr. Platt was asked in case his candidate, Gov. Mor- ton, was ngt nominated for President, if New York would present a candidate for Vice-Presiden „ must decline,” he said, to discuss that _ Subject as 1 have done during the — Mr. Platt expressed the opinſon that the National Committee would place the Morton delegates in contest on the temporary roll. He also referred to the fact that in one district the contest against his men had been withdrawn. He said there was no reason for making a contest on the other five districts. COLLEGE CLUBS FOR GOLD.

Foraker of Ohio, who will place McKinley in nomination and is ex- pected to make the great speech of the convention, reached the city Saturday a 3 ith h n cOMmpany’ w is wife he went to the St. Nicholas Hotel, where the others of the Ohio party, who had come in just ahead of him were awaiting his arrival. . 8 the Ohioans in the party were Gov. Asa 8. B nee State Auditor W. D. Gilbert, Maj. B. Hoober of Spring- fleld L. Kure of Columbus. The rty 111 15 quartered in six rooms at the t. Nicholas engaged some time ago by Senator Foraker. The mam who will place os Canton Maj- or’s name before the convention is a strik- ing re. From the standpoint of dress he looked little like the popular ideal of a statesman and President-maker. There was no Prince Albert coat, no fune- real necktie, no silk hat. Their place was taken by a faultless fit- ting pack suit ef dark blue flannel, a tie of tasteful pattern, the whole surmounted by a straw hat. he man who looks beyond the clothes for evidence of political acumen and states- manlike ability will find much food for thought in a study of Senator Foraker’s personal characteristics. He is a trifle under s:x feet high, straight and broad of shoul- der, elastic of step and quick of movement. His is a well-sha well-cropped growth of hair just turning gray and matching well his mustache. The’ mustache is firm and aggressive, though not bristling. Two kindly blue eyes are set on either si e of an aquiline nose. The chin is prominent and strongly molded. e signed his name on the register in a fine round business hand. Before going up to his room Senator For- aker, though extremel¥ busy getting his party quartered, gave a Post-Dispatch re- porter his views on McKinley’s prospects, and the platform. „As I see it, McKinley will certainly ges the nomination. I cannot see what con- tingency could cause him to lose, and am confident of his success. I do not think the free silverites in —— various delegations bie — — great figure in the convendon, te satisfied that whatever hap- pens , will not bolt. “IT do not oare to discuss the platform until I have conferred with he other gen- tlemen connected with McKinley’s cam- p .

As — whether the words ‘god standard ag in the.currency plank is arene money, chouge cannot see . the two expressions, Sound money and protection will both be important issues in the campaign, but I believe the most importan? issue will be whether or not the country has had enough of Grover Cleveland.“ Senator Foraker thinks it certain that Mc- Kinley will be nominated on the first ballot. He even thinks it possible that he will be nominated by acclamation. “Though I have not read the papers to- day,“ he said, “‘and may not be in a position to know until I have consulted with others, I do not see how anything can prevent Mc- Kinley from getting the nomination on the first ballot. A to a nomination by acclamation that is a matter I have not considered. I under- stand though that there is a feeling in cer- tain quarters that precedent would not jus- tify such an action. Still Grant was re- nominated by acclamation, was he not? There may be a precedent, but I do not think that even a precedent can stand in the face of the popular sentiment which will be represented by the delegates in the conven- tion. But, of course, I do not know what action will be taken in that regard. Gov. Asa 8. Bushnell of Ohio, a mem- ber of Senator Foraker's — has the va sues in the coming campaign summed u a trilogy which may become the Repub] Bee battle cry before the election. “Tariff, Cur- rency and Cuba,” is the way he puts it. “McKinle will certainly be nominated.“ said Gov. hnell. 1 think he will get it on the first K ballot easily, though one can- not always tell about the little details. do not see anything now that can stop him.

ULTIMATUM TO HANNA. Silver Republicans Will Formulate It When Teller Arrives. Senator Teller of Colorado is to arrive on an evening train, and there is in con- ple in the face, publican silver men. He is looked upon as the Moses who is to lead them through the wilderness, and withou$ him the friends of the white metal havé been more or less at sea.

When the Republican State Conven- tion of Colorado was in session I telegraphed them that I did not desire to go to St. Louis, but that if my party sent me I would not support a gold standard candidate for President on a gold standard ee ae or on a platform of doubtful import, in other words, a straddle. Not cake aia "the Convention ‘elect me, but instructed the other delegates to be governed by my ac- tion. I did not like that, because it is rather embarrasing that other men should be forced to do as I might do.” “Then you will bolt the convention?’’ “I did not say anything about that, but my declaration to the Republicans of Colo- rado is on record, and 2 can draw what- ever conclusions you please from that.“ “Will any of the other silver Senators from me est refuse to support a gold standard man”? Certainly.” “You have no idea that Senator Carter of Montana, chairman of the Republican National Committee, will refuse to support the ticket under such c!rcumstances?”’ “Yes, he will, and so will Dubois, Mantle and Cannon.’ “Do you believe he Democrats will go for silver?“ It looks very strongly that way.“ Would you support a free silver Demo- erat as against a gold Republican Really, I do not wish te be interviewed on that point now.

McKinley’s platform on which he will ask the country to give him a four years’ term in the White House, is to be dictated by the men who are given credit for a part of the responsibility for present stagnation. But it is all to be done under cover. There is to be a pretense of giving the delegates an opportunity to express the wishes of the voters they represent. They are to be allowed the privilege of discussing all sorts of proposed planks— sent out by Hanna for the purpose of get- ting up a discussion and cloaking the real foreclosing their mortgage on the Canton candidate, Before Manager Hania came to St. Louis to guide and shape the work of the McKin« ley ratification meeting there was a penfect understanding betwen McKinley and the Eastern money powers.

This compact, as is well known, was en- tered irto in Washington the night before Senator Quay went to Canton to make terms with McKinley. It was that what- | ever should happen Quay should have his name vresented in the convention and cast the vote of Pennsylvania for himself. That would enable . Allison and Re d to 1. be voted 1260 ane would prevent the inley — — of doing away with the for- wen f a balle . donater Quay doesn’t want to desert Platt, but tremendous pressure is brought on him.

Mr. Walker declared that his con- 3 contained a small majority of ates, Nunn and Austin were , hey are for McKinley. From the Tenth (Tenn.) District W. M. Randolph and Zachary 3 were seat- ed. They were contested by W. A. Mela and Wiliiam Parker. The South Carolina contests were then taken up. The entire delegatien, including four delegates-at-large and fourteen dis- trict delegates, was contested. It grows out of the question of organization. - There are two distinct organigations in South Carolina, that which is . known as the „Regular,“ headed by A. Webster, the . of the State A Pan The other organization is known as the “‘Lily Whites.“ and is headed by E. L. Melton and E. M. Brayton, member of the Nation- al Committee. The delegates ef the Web- ster faction were admitted at Minneapolis four years age. The State Committee did not call a convention in 1894 or neminate a ticket, and therefore assume that they still exist as the State Committee, since no State Convention was held in 1894. It was by the eall of this old committee the regular delegatlon, all of whom are for McKinle were elected. The delegates of the “Lily Whites” faction are in most cases anti- Mokinley men.

g Sean President at ‘ue ban in STILL THREATENS TO BOLT FROM THE CONVENTION. | HELL HAVE TO BOLT ALONE. His Political Enemies Are Doing All in Their Power to Break His Rule. The hardest fight that Thomas C. Platt has ever been engaged in is occupying his undivided time and energy. Every opposing force against him in his State has crystalized about the McKinley sentiment, and his enemies are moving heaven and earth to accomplish his down- fall. 1 With him it is win or die. If the regular New York organization goes down in defeat before this conven- tion the most sanguine friends of the easy boss” are inclined to admit that his empire will have ended. And it looks now as though he were lost. The McKinley forces, flushed with vie- tory, seem bent on showing the mighty man from New York that he is but what Boss Hanna is alleged to have called him a po- litical baby.“ With the Where can Platt go if he defies the power of the convention and walks out with his 60 delegates? 3 What. can he do if he brushes aside the warning of Chauncey M. Depew that he can not bolt—and goes back to his State seek- W from his own people? ith McKinley on a gold pla form, the men in Wall street cannot follow him to a free silver mocracy, even should he openly or secretly attempt so suicidal a licy. He is helpless, and with a Repub- ashington Federal pat- ronage would soon add sufficiently to the malcontents at home to overwhelm his ma- chine and ruin him, perhops forever. — No wonder that the “easy boss“ is fight- with the energy of desperation. His ma- chine is with him, its members all defiant and bitter to the last man. Said one of them this morning when he — that Depew had declared against a “You say that just as sure as there fs a God in heaven the New York delegates will walk out of that convention if our delegates in the contested districts are unseat .

Warner Is Accused of Being a Bolter and of Having Betrayed His Party in the Spring Election. ‘Special to the Post-Dispatch. , KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 18.—The bitter factional fig now raging in the ranks of the local Republican party has become in- tensified as the time approaches for the Selection of delegates to the Republican State Convention at Springfield. The friénds and supporters of ex-Mayor Web- ster Davis for the gubernatorial nomina- tion have entirely recovered from the set- back received at the St. Joe Convention, and within the past few days have become more confident and aggressive than ever. The real motives actuating the rival Re- ublican leaders in Kansas City and the rue animus of ing on are not ans of the State, question is simply a ership between — of the old line radical n and ex-Mayor Webster Davis, whose ' lowing is made up largely of the younger and more liberal class of Republican vot- ers. That the feeling between these two men is most bitter there can be no doubt, and the hostility of their leaders is re- flected among the friends of each. The historic Crisp and Sawyer fight in the local Democracy was not a whit more vicious than the present guerrilla warfare between the Rep can factions. Ex-Mayor Webster Davis undoubtedly represents the majority faction of the par- ty. This was demonstrated in the prima- ries held for the selection of delegates to the St. Joseph Convention; that contest Was a square stand- fight between War- ner and Pavis d e doughty ex-Mayor carried every ward in Kansas City with the exception of the Third, in which War- ner Hves, where his followers won by the narrow margin of seven votes. It was undoubtedly the occasion for great surprise upon the part of Missouri Repub- licans generally, that an old-time leader of Maj. arner’s supposed popularity should be turned dowh, and a comparatively un- known man indorsed for the distin shed honor of delegate-at-large to the National Convention. The secret reason for this unexpected ac- tion was the dissatisfaction of the stalwart Republicans of the * 4 with Maj. Warner’s course in the municipal campaign this spring. Thee Republi¢an city ticket was nominated at a ballot primary, where every candidate had a fair opportunity of testing his strength before the voters. Mayor Jones was unanimously nominated. The old Dem- ocratic a | under the leadership of the Times and Star succeeded in nominating an ex-Republican office-holder, Henry C. Kumpf, as the Democratic candidate. Kumpf had the support of the Warner fac- tion in the election. Such well known War- ner lieutenants as Capt. John T. Blake, John A. Dunean, O. . Queal, J. B. Law- fence, James A. Finlay and James H. lebay, openly advocated the election of Kumpf. Maj. Warner left the city imme- diately after the nominating convention was held and refused to take any part in the campaign. The Times, Star and World unit- ed in a vicious campaign of virulent, per- sonal abuse of ex~Mayor Davis and Judge Jones, but despite the Republican defec- tion, the election resulted in the defeat of Kumpf by a majority of 1,500 votes. Since the crushing defeat administered to the Warner faction in the pri ng gn clubs in the several wards and establishing headquarters in the Hall Building. Their policy is to secure the election of unin- structed delegates to the Springfield Con- vention, and thus defeat the nomination of Davis for Governor. Asa of their fight on Davis they accuse him of 1 titude to Warner, his alleged benefactor. The charge is atrenuously maintained that Mr. Davis is disqualified for the office of Governor of Missouri, for the reason that he is not old enough to come within the constitutional os as to age: „ that he has not maintained a continuous: residence in the State during the t seven years, and that he is under the uence of the A. P. A. Warner, it is claimed, never loses an opportunity to denounce the American Pro- tective Association and its methods in poli- tics. The Davis faction is somewhat handi- capped from the attitude of the local pres which ig either neutral or actively ostile to him. The friends of Davis, upon the other hand, are thoroughly organized, aggressive and confident of carrying Jackson County solid for the young ex-Mayor for Governor. They maintain that the attitude of Warner in opposing a Jackson County man for Gov- ernor, who is the undoubted choice of a ma- jority of the Republican voters, is an apt il- lustration of the dog in the manger’’ pol- icy. They say that realizing that his treach- erous desertion of the Republican city tick- et in the spring campaign has lost for him any consideration from the stalwart ele- ment of the party in Kansas City, he is, through envy and malice, seeking to bring about the defeat of Davis in order to retain the leadership of the Republican party in this, the second city of the State. They assert that Webster Davis is under no obli- gation to Warner for any favors, personal or political; that in the campaign of 1892 Mayor Davis, at the urgent solicitation of Warner, who was at that time a candidate for Governor, made a complete canvass of the entire State, to further his gubernator- ial ambitions. Davis then, as now, was a poor man, and it was that his trav- eling expenses should be paid, but that this was never done.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., June 13.—The Free Silver League of Indiana has opened head- quarters in the Grand Hotel here for the more active work of the campaign. Until to-day it has been conceded that seither Shanklin of Evansville or Shively of South Bend would be the Democratic nominee for Governor, but vague rumors are now cir- culated that the practical politicians of the Silver Democracy are talking of a dark horse who is sound on the silver question and against whom questions of availability cannot be urged, as has been the case in some quarters against both Shively and Shanklin. “State pride“ and personal friendship will take many Republicans of this city to the National Democratic Convention to do what they can in Gov. Matthews’ behalf. Indeed many of the Republicans here seem to fee more interest in the result at Chicago than in the proceedings at St. Louis next week. Matthews will have the solid delegation of the State whether the gold men elect dele- gates in this (the Seventh) district or not.

In Other words, the President has pur- sued in this case his habitual policy of subordinating the legislative to the ex- ecutive branch of the Government. The suspicions that have grown out of his delay in carrying out Congressional rec~ ommenaations concerning Cuba are now justificd. And it has become easier to shace the suspicions of Senator Morgan twat the Executive is serving the ends of a New England syndicate interested in the defeat of the struggling Cubans.

To-morrow’s Post-Dispatch will be larger than usual, to admit all the special features in addition to the news and gossip anticipatory of the big convention. Several pages will be devoted to the-com- mercial interests of St. Louis, showing its ewonderful resources and their devel- opment. The Republican National Convention will be handled by a large corps of com- petent reporters, the regular staff having been reinforced for the occasion. Every- thing in the way of news, gossip and forecasts that can be obtained in ad- vance of the convention will be attrac- tively set forth, and enlivened by pictures of the prominent visiting statesmen, and Illustrations of various kinds. This will not be done at the expense of the usual features of the Sunday Post- Dispatch, which have gained it such widespread popularity with all classes of readers. The Magazine will be full of interesting reading matter and: pictures for readers for whom, at this time, poli- ties and conventions are not the exclu- sive topics. Among the special features are the following: A Fortune Found in a Grave—The lucky and life-saving find of Sandy Bow- lin, who struck pay dirt“ when he was digging his own grave, his prospective Iynchers standing by. A Wild West story, illustrated by Russell. A Thrilling Ride on a Cyclone—The story of a man who was carried away by a cyclone while holding to a parachute. Illustrated. A Plan to Trap Tornadoes—Prof. Hazen of the United States Signal Service has a plan to render them harmless. Illus- trated. The United States Church Army—The St. Andrew’s Brotherhood of the Episco- pal Church has decided to form a na- tional organization to work in the slums on the Salvation Army plan. Dlustrated.

Stil the Friends of “De Ole Man” Claim That He Will Yet Slaughter Kerens. The action of the National Committee in turning down the Filley delegation in the Twelfth District has cast unutterable gioom over the Merchants’ League Club and its 2,300 pronounced loyal Filleyites. There ie indignation as well as gloom in the ranks and it was clearly manifestéd at the club- house on Olive street Friday night. There was a meting of the General Reception Com- mittee of which F. M. Sterrett is chairman, and several hundred members of every de- gree of prominence were there. They were all worked up and denunciatory terms were used unsparingly to express the opin- on the members entertained of the Na- tional Committee and Marcus Aurelius given the credit or discredit of De Ole Man's“ impending downfall. All went on in the buffet and parlors, hile Mr. Sterrett’s committee was in an- other part of the building devising plans Lor the entertainment of delegates. What was to have been a joyful task partook more of the nature of a wake; the eommitteemen looked like a lot of mourn- ers a» the funeral of a departed friend. On the outaide, and especially where the @rinks were dispensed, there were loud and a comments on the National Commit- Kees action, ahd no one took the trouble to reprove the culprits or check the indigna- tion. The popular way of showing disgus? was to turn the McKinley button wrong gide foremost on the coat lapel, sugestive cture That is Turned Toward the ; This form of demonstration told very plainly that the workers were no long- er absorbed in admiration of the Canton Major, but would like to see him dumped hard in the convention. But one construction was placed on the committee decision unseating Parsons and Uthoff. It meant that Mc inley did not want the High Priest at the osque out on Chestnut street to manage his pie coun- ter in this. State. But one sentiment was fet. Filley had been standing up for Mis- juri and McKinley only to be struck down the hand of an ingrate. No wonder the McKinley button was turned the other way and no wonder imprecations were hurled at Hanna and the other arch-con- spirators. Charles F. Wenneker, a eee factor in the Merchants’ Club, and a liey staff gaid Saturday morning that the elub had en no action expressive of its feeling on the National Committee’s decis- fon in the Twelfth District contest. “Of course,” said he, ‘‘the boys feel indig- nant that the regular delegates were turned down, and they have no hesitation in ex- pressing eir feelings on what they con- sider a high-handri proceeding. Some of the members turned their McKinley but- tons wrong side out at the clubhouse last night and declared themselves, but the committe which met there took no action. do r.ot know what step, if any, will keri. We are still confident that Filley de National Committeeman; in fact. e no doubt that he has enough votes ir delegation to land him a winner.“ Major Warner happened along at this ‘neture, and Mr. Wenneker lost no time in t him to a corner for a quiet chat. to a few days ago, Mr. Filley’s mana- 's were not so particular how Warner ted, but now they are endeavoring to apress upon trim that he is morally bound | by the instruction given at the St. Joseph Conven- „ Warner says he will vote when the me comes, but will not be a candidate i He said: “The * will start between two men. How it will end I do not know.“ There is a growi impression, however, that Warner himself will be chosen, as he tomes next to Kerens in the estimation of the McKinley managers. Kerens’ latest advantage is in the reso- n ted 27 the National Committee tructing the National Committeeman for each State to call his delegation together mot later if ization and the selection o | ves on the various convention committ ees. Kerens has called the Missouri delegation ‘to meet in rooms 220, 222 and 224 at the uthern Monday at 12 o’clock. The dele- gates will be called to order by Mr. Kerens, and will then organize by electing a chair- man and secretary, and then there will be a decisive fight between the factions. This action on the part of the committee knocks out 2 programme to have the elegates meet in his headquarters in the lanters’. Filley, unless he throws himself out of the breastworks, will have to get in line with his delegates and go to the head- 1 chosen by his silk-hosed adver- e Kerens people now say there is n further doubt“ that their headquarters at the Southerr are the regular headquarters, and acc’ “dingly placards were prepared Sat- uray j-orning for, the guidance of the Misso Art delegates.

P. A in the city. ey worked put they were after Kerens’ scalp attempt to conceal that fact. Wherever they found a delegate or an influ- =“ Republican they got in a rap at Col. erens. A prominent Republican, who disclaimed any connection with the American Protec- tive Association, told a Post-Dispatch man that it was absurd for Kerens friends to suppose that he had any chance of remain- ing on the National Committee as the repre- sentative of Missouri. “His friends,” the prominent Republican said, are claiming the support of men who are in the A. P. A. ranks and Councils, and it stands to reason that his prominence in Catholic affairs is an insurmountable bar t his getting their votes. I have noth against Kerens, in fact, I like him person- ally, but he can never be elected ational Committeeman. One of the votes his cham- ions are claiming, for instance, is T. B. | Haughawout of arthage. That this is | ridiculous on its face is evident from the ‘fact that Haughawout, while a McKinley man, is a member of the National ecu- tive Committee of the American Protective Association and re nted Missouri at the recent meeting in Washington. He is not the only A. P. A. in the Missouri delega- tion. Kerens thinks the others will vote for him, but he will discover his mistake at the meeting of the delegation next Mon- day.’ Delegate Haughawout, who has been keeping away from the Southern since his arrival, was found by a Post-Dispatch re- ' in company with Committeeman organ of Kansas City. Haughawout is a swarthy looking man, with straight black hair and black eyes. He is said to have Indian blood in his veins. Is tt true that you are Mr. Kerens for National was asked. te Haughawout looked sharply at 3 Shook his head.

Warner strike you?’ the dark-visaged and sphinx-like delegate was asked. “T will support Maj. Warner for anything he wants,“ — said. Then he relapsed into a silence which all the efforts of the interviewer. failed to break. He would say nothin further than that nobody but himself would know how he intended te vote until the delegation got together. . e delegates 8 r Kerens managers are arner at ela : N.

Gideon, Four- teehth District; Nathan Frank and C. D. Comfort, St. Louis; T. B. Haughawout and G. A. Purdy, Fifteenth District. This makes a total of 20, which would leave but 14 to vote for Filley, but the friends of De Ole Man” give this estimate the laugh. WHY HE IS FOR KERENS. Delegate George A. Purdy Says Filley Was Too Grasping. “Tt am for Kerens for National Committee- man, and you can record me that way.“ The speaker was George A. Purdy of Pierce City, one of the delegates the Filley men have been counting on for their favor- ite. Mr. Purdy arrived Saturday and did not lose much time getting to the Missouri headquarters. „Filley,“ he said, could have secured t National Committeemanship for himself very easily if he had not n ‘so grasping at the St. Joe Con- vention. A little conciliation and spirit of compromise’ shown at that time would have preven'éd this fight. Personally I have nothing but kind feelings for Mr. Filley, but I do not want to see him get everything the party in Missouri has to give. He is Chairman of the State Commit- tee and will have things his own way at the Springfield Convention; he is a delegate-at- large to the convention, elected unanimous- ly, and is a prospective United States Sena- tor. Now he wants to be National Commit- teeman “Why he should have done at St. Joseph was to let his at, 1 join in the harmony movemens to make Mr. Kerens a delegate | at large. Had he done so I would one }f his supporters for National Committee- Under the circumstanoes I feel it is my duty to support R. C. Kerens.““ “What sort of a financial plank do you j oing to support ommitteeman?’”’ tee will ‘Who do you favor for the Resolutions Committee in your delegation?“ 9 nnot say at this time. We have an abundance of good timber in our delega- tion.“ WARNER BUSY, BUT SHY. He Is Calling on Both Sides and Saw- ing Much Wood. Mag. William Warner, delegate-at-large and McKinley’s manager for West Missouri, Was a very busy man Saturday. He was up before 7 and by 9 o’clock was in consul- tation with R. C. Kerens and Nat Frank. This looked suspicious, but later in the day he was seen freely mixing with Filley men. His early call on Kerens was to consult with him in reference to the convention offices Sergeant-at-Arms Byrnes. proposes to give the Missourians. Mr. Byrnes is woking on this list now and hopes to com- plete it to-day. Filley, Kerens and Warner will all be given representation in the way of deputy sergeants, door-keepers and pages. Maj. Warner was asked many questions about his reported boom for Vice-President, He said positively he was not a candidate for Vice- dent, Nati Committee- man or anything else. Nor would he say who he intended to give his vote for Na- tional Committeeman. The chances are Maj. Warner will be on the Convention Plat- form Committee. “A MEAN, MALICIOUS LIE.” So Says Hanna of the Alleged Order to “Roll” Filley. “It’s a mean, malicious lie!“ These are the exact words of Mark Hanna. The kingmaker had been asked by a Post- Dispatch repo Chauncey 1. Filley must be beaten gor Na- tional Committeeman. Mr. Hanna came to the door of his private room at the thern in response to the ck of the newsgatherer. He did not wait for the question to be ry He answered it in the words quoted, then turned and hurried to hig desk.

The “Stand-Up-For-Missouri” Rooms Crowded With Visitors. Filley’s “Stand Up for Missouri’ head- quarters were opened in the Planters’ Hotel Saturday by Secretary Albert Griffen of the State Committee, Col. Bill Leeper of Kings- ton, James T. Beach, Councilman Fred G. Uthoff, Senator Gus Wurdemann, F. W. Rauchenstein, Coroner Wait, Mark Char- trand and others of the faithful. There were many visitors, who were all informed that Mr. Filley would be down at noon. At that hour he was not on hand, but Secretary Griffen said he would come as soon as he finished his dinner at home. Mr. Griffen looked sad and frowned at reportorial visitors. He has not recovered from that maneuver made by the McKinley heavyweights in unseating the Twelfth Dis- trict delegates. The delegates claimed positively by Mr. Filley’s managers are the four at large, Filley, Niedri Warner and Both- well; —.—— and E. W. Robinson, First District; J. L. Minnis and J. E. Swan- er, Second District; J. H. Harris and E. M. Taubman, Fifth District; L. J. W. Wali and C. F. HNenkamp, Tenth District; F. B. Brownell and Lee Phillips, Eleventh District, making fourteen. . In addition to these they claim to be rea- sonably certain of Smith and Leonard of the Seventh District, Parsons of the Thir- teenth and Davis of the Fourteenth. The delegates in the city up to noon, who had rted at either headquarters, were Maj. Warner of nsas City; F. B. Lander, California; G. A. Purdy, Pierce City; Jesse ote, Mansfield; 8. W. Jurden, Holden; C. B. Parsons, Riverside; F. E. Kellogg, Rich Hill; J. G. Grems, Maryville; L. T. Sharp, rrr: ore City, and T. B. Haugh- Jawout, Carthage. All but Warner, Smith and Haughawaut are claimed by the Kerens managers. War- ner is non-committal and may vote for Kerens, as he does not consider the resolu- tion of the St. Joe Convention binding on him, inasmuch as he withdrew his na and was elected despite his action. Hough awaut is outspoken for Warner, as is Smith of Sweet Springs. LIFE OF MR. STEPHENS. — Will Be Written by Mr. Lowry, Biog- rapher of Mr. Bland. Tom J. Lowry. who gave up the profes- sorship of civil engineering in Missouri Uni- versity several years ago to retire to his big farm in Randolph County and who is — of the alternates to the Chicago Convention from the Second District, made such a big hit with his circular on The Private Life and Public Services of Richard P. Bland” that he is trying his hand in the interests of another. is time his circular is in the interest of Lon V. Stephens for Governor. The Bland circular was indorsed by the Bland committee and ten thousand copies of it were printed by the committee, but Mr. Lowry is having the Stephens circular rinted at his own expense. That is his usiness in St. Louis now. He will return home before the conv on, as he does not care to fall a victim the mistake that caused old dog Tray's downfall. AN AVENGER WORSTED. Joseph Didier Attempts to Thrash a Boy and Is Beaten. Several Republican youngsters were cele- brating the downfall of Tom Reed Friday night by a fireworks display on South Broadway. ö The dress of Edna Didier of 4549 South Broadway was t on fire by a cracker thrown by John Wickey, 14 years old, living in that vicinity. The flames weré extinguished before the girl was injured. Joseph Didier, her father, attempted to chastise the boy for what he had done, but Vincent Wickey, a brother of John, took a hand, assaulted Didier, knocked him down, closed his right eye and otherwise maltreat- ed him. The boys escaped. STICKELS’ CONDITION. Charge Against Draper Changed to Assault to Kill.

TO BE OPEN TO THE WORLD. eee Mr. Clark, Who Introduced the Bill, Also Fathered One to Raise Chief Harrigan’s Salary. Charles Sutter had an ordinance intro- duced by Mr. Clark in the Council looking to a solution of the difficulty which he and the city find themselves in. The ordinance begins by declaring the ex- isting condition of affairs regarding the con- duit of the National Subway Company of St. Louis. Section 1 grants to Charles Sutter, Emil A. Meysenburg and John M. Sellers the right, when incorporated properly under ex- isting laws, to operate and maintain a con- duit in the streets of St. Louis. Section 2 provides for the manner and system of laying and constructing the con- duits, and puts the matter in the hands of the Board of Public Improvements. Sections 3 and 4 make provisions for fur- ther safeguards and regulations regarding the laying of the conduits. .- Section 6 says: “Said corporation, in addi- tion to providing space for its own wires, shall provide space for the wires of any other person or persons, company or com- panies desiring to use such system of un- derground conduits, upon such reasonable terms and compensation as may be a upon by the respective parties.” Section 6 says: In consideration of the premises and chises granted by this ordinance said corporation when incorpor- ated, in addition to all other taxes assessed by law, shall pay into the City Treasury 6 er cent of its gross receipts, as required by tion 590, Chapter 16 of the Revised Ordi- nances of 1897, and in consideration of the sum of $4,500 in cash, being the amount _— viously paid the city by the National Sub- way Co., it shall also provide one or more ducts in its conduits, as may be necessary, for the sole use of the fire and police and telephone service of the city of St. Louis, and shall provide space to any and all per- sons or corporations which are now author- h may be authorized to operate „ Ste., in St. Louis.” Section 7 binds the company to begin work within ninety days after the passage of the ordinance within the district established b the general conduit ordinance, so that all companies can go in after having agreed on a price, as provided in Section 5. ection 8 gives the city the right to pur- chase or lease the conduit ter fifteen years. The company is given the right to issue bonds not to exceed the amount of the —— ag 1 the 8 ecticn xes the bond of the compan at $25,000 with good and sufficient sureties. f Mr. Sutter, in explaining the measure, sald: We propose to let the city incorpor- ate our conduit in the general scheme of conduits under the new bill, thereby pro- viding for its own wires and making the whole problem a very simple and easy one, and above all ey off all unpleasant lit- se which might otherwise be pro- Mr. Clark introduced by request an ordi- nance fixing the salary of the Chief of Po- lice of the City of St. Louis at $5,000 per an- num. ‘The salary of the Chief is now $3,000. The bill was rather a surprise to the Coun- cil, and came, it is understood, from one ve near to the Police Board. Mr. Clark said, when asked about it, that he preferred not to state who it was that asked him to introduce it. WRESTLING WITH THE ACTIVES. Judge Flitcraft Struggling With Building association Cases. Judge Fliteraft is wrestling with the Active Building and Loan Association cases. He heard the demurrer in the suit brought by James Dilton for a receiver for Active Building and Loan Association No. 2, and withheld his decision. The great point in the argument was whether the court has the right, at the complaint of a stockholder, to appoint a receiver for a building association, or whether, under the law of 189%, authorizing the State supervi- sion of buildin associations, the initiative must be taken, by the Supervisor. Saturday morning Judge Flitcraft heard arguments on the demurrer to the bill brought by John Mullens vs, Active Build- ing and Loan Association No. 3. Mullen has $660 in the society and he has not been able to withdraw it. He charges that the directors have made no provision for paying him and other with- drawing stockholders. .He charges also that the directors have used the money of the association for their a ahve obligations and have unlawfully aned money on second deeds of trust, and have done many other things which he regards as ques- tionable. Mullen wants the directors ordered to hold one-half their funds for the benefit of with- drawing shareholders. He asks a judgment for the amount due him, and for a receiver to take charge of the concern. Judge Fliteraft took the matter under advisement. ILLINOIS DOCTOR ROBBED. Says He Was Taken to a House and Relieved of Ninety Dollars. Dr. James McRuart of Ava, III., reported do the police that he had been robbed of $90. Alexander Maydwell, alias Young, and Ar- thur Washington, both colored and strang- ers in the city, were arrested on suspicion. The money was not recovered. The doctor requested some men to direct him to the St. James Hotel. Instead of doing so, he claims, they took him to a house in the vicinity of Sixth and Elm streets and ro him. Chauncey Depew’s First Speech. The arrival of Chauncey pee has in- creased the interest that is ing taken in the speeches he is to deliver in St. Louis. Next Monday nigh? he will make his initial address in the convention auditorium. It will be for the benefit of the Soldiers’ Home and will be preceded and followed by splen- did musical numbers. Colored Republican Meeting. There will be a colored Republican mass at Stolle’s Hall, 1907 Biddle street toine of Lou th of Carondelet and others will speak, Gone Back to Work.
