Tammany.
cided upon by Mr. Martin and John C.
Siieehan in accordance with the ex
pressed desire of 32 oat of 35 district
leaders of Tammany. Senator Hill and
other leaders of the state organization
have endeavored to induce Tammany to
defer action until after the state conven
tion, but the majority of the district
leaders in the wigwam is opposed to any
postponement and the ratification meet
ing to indorse the Chicago, picket will be
held next week. '
WATSON IS . MODEST.
BONXST-MONKT DEMOCRATS.
New York, July 28. Senator Hill ia
now in favor of a third ticket. This in
formation comes direct from a personal
friend of the sanator, who 'is a prom
inent Democrat. The action of the
Populist conveniion at St. Louie is what
seems to have caused Hill to come to a
decision as to his course. The position
of the senator is thus outlined by the !
friend in question :
"Mr. Hill has been between two fires
from both factions of the party for eome
time. He could not indorse the Chicago
platform, nor could he advocate the
election of any candidate who stood
upon it. The St. Louis Populist conven
tion only served to widen the breach be
tween the sound money and silver wings
of the party, making it impossible to
bridge, as the Western Democrats had
practically affiliated with the Populists
in everything but name.
"You- will find that when the Saratoga
state convention meets Hill will be
against the Bryan ticket. The New
York senator is simply following in the
footsteps of Flower, Whitney, Lamont
aad other eminent leaders in the Em
pire state."
Senator Hill himself continues non
committal, and the stale committee,
-which meets at the Hoffman house to
day, will merely decide, it is said, to. call
the convention at Saratoga without in
dicating any line of policy.
All doubt as to Tammany's intentions
concerning the Chicago ticket and plat
form has been set at rest by the issue of
a call for a meeting of the executive
committee Friday'to arrange details for
ratifying the ticket. This step was de-
Vifteea States Will Send Delegates to
tne Convention.
Indianapolis, July 28. Ex-Congressman
Bynnm, who is a member of the
sub-committee of the sound-money
Democrats, which is arranging for a na
tional convention to nominate a sound
money ticket, said today that 15 states
have already indicated that they will be
represented at the meeting in this city
August 7.' There are a few Western
states that will, not be represented at
the meeting, he says, because the time
is too short. Bynum says Minnesota
has already appointed delegates. Dele
gates have organized in several states,
and Kansas has sent word that the state
will be organized immediately.
EXPLOSION OF GIANT POWDER,

Be Thinks Ills Candidacy Saved the
Populist Party.
New Yojsk, July. 28. Thomas F. Wat
son, candidate for vice-president on the
Populist ticket, in a telegram from
Thomason, Ga., says :
"Our executive committee must de
cide the question of dividing the elect
ors. If Bryan accepts our nomination
and Sewall should retire, the Texan Pop
ulists would probably be content with
Bryan and Watson, even though Bryan
did not indorseall the platform.
"I was absolutely sincere when I said
I would not accept either place on the
Populist national ticket. I thought our
party would have no difficulty in naming
a straight-out Populist ticket, and I did
not desire either place. I stayed away
from the convention partly to. avoid
prominence, and the Georgia delegation
had positive instructions not to allow
the use of my name. After the conven
tion met and the fusion strength de
veloped, it seemed that our party would
be swallowed up by the Bryan forces,
and to have gone into the presidential
campaign with no hope on the national
ticket meant death to the People's party.
The Georgia delegation then telegraphed
me, urging me to allow the use of my
name to harmonize the factions and
save the party. I consented and will
abide by the. consequences. When I
said I would not accept I did not dream
that such a crisis could possibly come
upon our party."

THE DCERAST CASE.
The Proceeding! Have at Last Beached
the Supreme Court
San Francisco, July 28. The case of
Theodore Durrant, convicted of murder
ing Blanche Lamont, went to the su
preme court today. The whole of the
long transcript of the appeal, number
ing 2409 . pages, and bound in three
volumes, has been completed, signed by
the trial judge, and is now ready for
presentation before the supreme court
Argument for certificate of probable
cans will probably be heard tomorrow
before Chief Justice Beatty in chambers.
This certificate is always granted when
there is any legal cause susceptible of
argument. Probable cause in appealed
cases means that appeal was not vexa
tious, but that cause for it was probable.
There is not much doubt that a certifi
cate of probable cause will be granted
in this case, and the appeal will proceed
smoothly. If everything goes promptly,
allowing for the number of days the
supreme court will grant for a bearing,
the number of days allowed the trial
judge for re-sentencing the criminal,
and the fartherest limit for the day of
execution, Durrant has about four
months more of lite. This notorious
criminal is now in the county jail, grow
ing stout at his ease.
None Bat Ayer's at the World's Pair.
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 eought by
every means to obtain a showing of their
goods, but 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 nostrnms. It is here on its
merits." - "
