Senator Lee Mantle of Montana says that Senator Teller should be nominated for the Presidency by the Democrats at Chicago. When asked if he was in full sympathy with the silver men who " walked out of the St. Louis Convention, the Senator replied that he certainly was. The A r knight Club of Boston, com posed of the treasurers and selling agents of all the cotton mills in New England, have decided on a curtailment of production, the action being intended, it is said, to forestall any action looking to free silver by the Democratic Con vention at Chicago. A special session of the Wisconsin Legislature may be called because of a decision invalidating the faicorporation acts of villages created since 1858. Isadora Wormser, the New York banker and a life-long Democrat, has written to a Chicago friend that be is going to vote for MeKlaley. - The Westbote, a Onrmsn DsinocraUe daily paper of Columbus, Ot, repudiates the Ohio Democratic State Convention silver platform. The Washington Peoples parry con vention defeated a proposition to en dorse Teller as their candidate for Pres ident. . - - ' , ..i The Blinons Dsmociatic eesrventioa adopted a free-eeinags platform and renominated Altgetd for aoiaaos. The Indiana rJexnocratic Convention adopted a free silver platform and in dorse Governor Mathews for the OhV cago nomination. " I The New York Deiaocratic Cesrven tion declared strongly against free sil ver coinage and endorsed the President's bondissues. J -.::- d.u- Benator John M. Thurston of Onsahav . has issued this notice: M The committee selected by the Bepublicwa nstinsaal convention to notify WQnam McKinley of his nomination fbr President wiH meet at Cleveland, Ohio,- June- SBth, and proceed by special . train ' on the morning of June 29th to Canton, Ohio. The train will return to Cleveland the afternoon of the same day.' Senator Thomas" H. Carter of Mon tana held a consultation with Senator Lee Mantle at Chicago, which is said to have dealt with the prospects of secur ing an indorsement of Senator ; Teller's candidacy at the approaching conven tion. Senator Carter said in case the Democrats put up a man whom the sQ yer people could conscientiously sup port Senator Teller would' probably withdraw. Ihe members of the notification committee all assembled at Cleveland with the exception . of Rogers of Utah, who telegraphed that he could not come.. . The committee went to Canton. Monday morning. ' Senator Thurston, chairman of the committee, said: "I . do not thiuk there is any question that McKinley will win a great victory, but by what plurality I cannot estimate. ' I think we. will lose Co orado, Utah, Ne vada, Idaho and Montana on accounk of silver- I do not think we can save them. The rest of the western states will wheel into line for McKin-, ley. I think the fight will shortly set tle down aad the tariff will force the money . issue, into second place. Sena-''' tors Teller and Dubois will be re-elected on the silver ticket. It is rather sig nificant that these two senators were -tacenes to bolt, and that they were. Lboth up for re-election in silver eom- m unities. These who did net bolt were not ap for another term.
