THE GAME BLOCKED BY COM MIT EES They Request Farther Time Senator Thurston's Vigorous Speech Oar-. tug the Morning Honrs. Special to The Chronicle: St. Louis, Jane 17. 10 :15 a. m. The convention ball is rapidly filling. The eilyer men eay today will be the great day of battle on the financial issue. While they are in a - hopeless minority they expect to impress their views npon the country at large through their open advocacy of free coinage. Hanna was greatly cheered upon eight of the New York delegates, as they entered the hall. 10 :45 a. ni. The chairman of the com mittee appeared and stated the commit tee was still in session and asked for further time. By vote of the convan tion they were given until this afternoon . to report. 11 :06 a. m. Ex-Senator Thurston now takes the chair, which produces the first general applause of the session Uanna will attempt to rush through the nomination of McKinley and close the session today, but there will be a fight on the committee of credentials report and the adoption of the gold plank, and the desired end will fail of its attain ment. 11 a. m. Judge Foraker has agreed to nominate Mr. Morton, of New York, for the vice-president.1 11:10 a. in. Senator Thurston has just made a speech advocating a vigor ous foreign policy and the upholding of the Monroe doctrine. He outlined a policy for the extinguishment of the na tional debt, and the rehabilitation of the merchant marine. Speaking upon the financial question he said that every dol lar whether gold, silver or paper should have the same vajue as any in the world. He reaffirmed the estab lished Republican policy of protection and the more recent promulgation of the principle of reciprocity. He was also in favor of curbing the gradually accu mulating power of the corporations, (cheers.) At this point a large floral shield marked "Nebraska" was pre sented, which served to interrupt his speech. At its conclusion a tremendous volley of cheers rent the hall. The con vention then took a recess uutil 2 p. m. AFTERNOON. St. Louis, JuneJ17. The convention re assembled at 2 :45 p. m. The report of the chairman of the committee .on cre dentials recommended the seating of Hlggins from the delegation of Delaware and John Grant of Texas. The roll call as prepared by the national committee, says the committee has examined into the merits of 160 cases. It recommends that the contestants 'have a hearing and urges the hearing of the whole 160 cases, and says in explanation that no man knows what their papers contain. Mr. Hepburn, of Iowa, presented a minority report. The credentials committee were unwilling to accept ( the national com mittee's report. 3 :30 p. m. The roll call was asked for and secured. California voted solidly against the previous question . on the adoption of the report. The vote result ed, ayes 568; noes 329; carried. , THE FINANCIAL PLANK. The subcommittee on resolutions yes terday resolved to recommend to the committee on resolutions the following financial plac fa:: ' " "The Republican party is unreserved ly for sound money. It caused the enactment of the law providing for the resumption of specie payments In 1879; since then every dollar has been -as good as gold. We are unalterably opposed to every measure calculated to debase our cur rency or impair the credit of our coun try. We are therefore opposed fo the free coinage of silver, except by inter national agreement with' the leading commercial nations of the world, which we pledge ourselves to promote, and un til such agreement can be obtained, the existing gold standard must - be pre served. All our Bilver and paper cur rency now in circulation must be main tained at a parity with gold, and we favor all measures designed to maintain inviolable the obligations of the United States, and all our money, whether coin or paper, at the present standard, the standard of the most enlightened nations of the earth." Senator Teller offered a free-coinage resolution as a substitute, which was voted down. GO.NE TO THI FRONT. Reached Oregon National Guardsmen Astoria Yesterday. Astoria, June 16. Colonel Summers with . his command of seven companies of the First regiment, O. N. G... and two 3-inch and two Gatling guns, arrived on steamer Queen about 10:30 this morn ing. Widely different views are expressed by the people, to most of whom the ar rival of militia was a surprise. ' Those in favor of law and order have expressed unbounded ' relief that ' protection has arrived. The radical element of the fishermen are inclined to treat the mat ter with ridicule and contempt. On the sidewalk in front of their headquarters and in several other localities appears the legend in chalk s ' " 4)-CENT MILITIA. : was likened to "a charge of powder dan gerously near a match," as it was ex pressed by an up-river traveler this morning. As an evidence of the attitude of mer chants of Astoria toward strikers, the following harangue, delivered by one of the most prominent . storekeepers on Commercial street to a group of rabid strikers, was overheard in the crowded rotunda of the postoffice, and it shows what a dangerous feeling baa" been en gendered toward outside interference: ' "You're all right,"boy8, holding to gether. Don't let the cannerymen's combination down you. You bave tbe sympathy of tbe business public; now stick it out. The cannerymen are with in a half-cent of your price, and they willl be compelled to meet your figures yet. Don't eatch fish nor let any one J else fish on tbe Columbia river. Fifty i of you fishermen can whip 200 of Port land's crack militiamen any day." Specimens of class work and fine arts will be on exhibition at St. Mary's academy, Saturday and Sunday, June 20th and 21st.

The canneries this morning posted no tices stating that they would pay 4 cents for fish, and guarantee protection to those who want to go out. Colonel Summers and his aids, after inspecting various localities, have ar ranged to go into camp upon the court house and custom-house squares, which face eacn other in the center ot the city on Uommercial street. Tbe county officers bave offered the use of their rooms for headquarters purposes and Collector of Customs Page has courte ously tendered the use of the custom- bouse. There were no incidents on tbe voy age down the river and no stops were made .until Astoria was reached. Colo nel Summers 'and his aids .'were moat cordially received by the leading citi zens and county officers. Xater The troops have just marched down to the courthouse, preceded by the baggagd train, and have commenced to pitch camp. That there will be fighting in case the men. attack the canneries, which at tempt to start np is not doubted by those well-informed on the situation along the river. How well prepared the fishermen are can only be surmised. There have been some very 'absurd re ports to the effects that arms have been shipped down 'the river within the past' few weeks, and that ammunition has been furnished the strikers." The men who desire to go to 'fishing at 4 or cents, as has' been offered! will fish un der the protection of the militia and the moment there is a contact between : the strikers and the military authorities the outbreak will occur. The situation in ABtoria last evening California Delegates Bave Not Given Up tbe Battle. St. Louis, Mo., June 16. The Cali fornia delegation met today prior to pro ceeding to the convention, and on mo tion of Congressman Johnson, decided by a rising and unanimous vote to stand for the free and unlimited coinage of silver to the last, and to follow Teller in all things on tbe financial question, stopping short only of walking out of the convention hall after the convention's action on the platform. Johnson was also instructed to go before the commit tee on resolutions and make an argu ment for free silver. 'He will support the free eilverites in a speech on floor of the convention if given an opportunity. Senator Warren will 'present a resolu tion for tbe coinage of the American silver product.
