THE NATIONAL DEM. CONVENTION
Opens with Boms Very Heated Speeches
The .Silver Men Have the
ITpper Hand.
Chicago, July 7. The National Dem
ocratic Convention commenced as
sembling at 10 :30 and was called to
order at 12 -.50. Harrity reported Hill
for temporary chairman amidst great
cheering. Clayton of Alabama moved
that DanieU same be substituted. There
was an immense demonstration preced
ing the calmer discussion of the motion.
New Jersey delegates advocated the
choice of Hill. Waller of Connecticut
advocated Hill for temporary and Daniels
for permanent chairman.
Mr. Waller said: "lean stand any
candidate the convention may nomin
ate. The gold men are here to stay and
ask only for courtesy and fair treatment
and the upholding of Democratic prece
dents. If Hill Ib turned down I tell you
the Eastern Democrats will fight."
Cheers and hissing by all. It was
now 1 :30 p. m. Thomas of Colorado,
Waller of Alabama and Tarpey of Cali
fornia advocated the choice of Daniels
in speeches altogether consuming fifteen
minutes of time. Fellows of New York
was another who advocated the choice
of Hill, when there was great cheering
at mention of his name. He appealed
to the convention not to violate prece
dents and trample on the rights of the
majority.' Cheering again and again.
He made the point as to the reason why
the convention should be willing to
accept all the rest of the recommenda
tions of the majority of the national
committee and turn a Democrat like
Hill down.
2 :20 p. m. Marston of Louisiana can
not speak owing to the confusion. The
chairman warns the convention to keep
quiet. Marstoa retires.' Ladd, of III.,
advocates Daniels and says if Hill should
make a speech he would keep the party
explaining till election came. St. Clair
advocated Hill. His reference to free
silver was cheered. He says if the sil
ver men are afraid of having the ques
tion discussed by Hill what will outsid
ers think. ' .-,
. 2:.45 Call of states ordered.
3 :20 The vote resulted . in favor of
substituting Daniels for Hill, 552 against
343 ; including territories, ayes 554, noes
345. The announcement of the vote
causes great cheering throughout the
hall. Daniels takes the chair.
3:40 Daniels in his opening speech
referred to Hill as a great senator.
Cheers. Also referred to Teller.
Great cheering.. Advocated free coin
age of silver at the ratio Of 16 to 1.
4 :3o Koii or states ordered for ap
pointment of committees. .

POINTS TO A. DBADLOCK.
It Would Tak Shrewd Prophet to
Name the Nominee.
Chicago, July B.-rOn the eve of the
Democratic National Convention, which
convenes tomorrow in the Coliseum oh
the lake front, all is confusion. One
thing looms np like a searchlight In the
fog that hangs over the situation, and
obscures the vision of the wisest and
most fair-seeing of the leaders.' That, is
that the convention will be for silver, at
16 to 1.
As for candidates, the convention is
still groping in the mark. The din of
the Bland and Boies boomers is deafen
ing, and so infectious at times that- it

almost carries the public off its feet.
Bland is unquestionably in the lead, so
far as actual votes are concerned, his
strength approximating 250, a liberal
estimate, with Bland moving along at
his heels with about 200, but neither is
able to demonstrate as - yet how he can
win.
In this chaotic condition of affairs
gossip and speculation cast about for
dark horses. William J. Bryan, the boy
orator of the Platte; Vice-President
Adlai Stevenson, John R. McLean, the
Ohio journalist; the Bluegrass orator,
Senator Joe Blackburn of Kentucky,
and Senator White of California, all
share the distinction of being canvassed.
Even Senator Hill, of New York, is
talked of, and his famous Eluaira speech
of 1892 is recalled as an evidence that he
is a bimetalist and would make a strong
compromise candidate. The name of
ex-Governor James E. Cauipell, of Ohio,
ia also heard.
The Pennoyer boom from Oregon was
formally launched today, and' ex-Congressman
Joe Sibley, of Pennsylvania,
announced his candidacy.

Nome But Ayer's at the World's Fair.
Ayer's Sarsaparilla enjoys the extra
ordinary distinction of having been the
only blood purifier allowed on exhibit at
the world's fair, Chicago. Manufact
urers of other sarsaparillas sought by
every means to obtain a showing of their
goods, bat they were all turned away
under the application of the rule for
bidding the entry of patent medicines
and nostrums. The decision of the
world's fair authorities in favor of Ayer's
Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows:
"Ayer's Sarsaparilla is ' not a patent
medicine. It does not belong to the
list of nostrums. It is here on its
merits."
