REFUSES TO SERVE AS A DELEGATE
Could Not Accept Under Conditions
Imposed by the Convention Texas
Itepnbllcan Convention -
. Albany, N. Y., Sept. 10. Senator
Hill telephoned as follows today to Nor
tou Chase, chairman of the Albany
county Democrat convention:
"I observe in the morning papers that
I have been elected a delegate from the
third Albany district to the state con
vention under instructions to vote for
the indorsement of the Chicago platform
and candidates. This action is taken
in opposition to my wishes and judg
ment, as expressed to you yesterday, and
I decline to accept the election upon the
conditions imposed or upon any condi-.
tion which would restrict my freedom at
Buffalo ' to act in such a manner as I
consider best for the interest of my
party."
WOMK.V IN TUB CAMPAIGN.
Ftmlne Admirer of 11 oy Oratory Or
ganize for Action.
Chicago, Sept. 10. The women are
without votes, but they have voices. So,
undismayed by the eelffishneea of sever
al millions of men who want all the
votes, they make use of their voices and
influence to guide the ballots of some of
those sovereigns to Mr. Bryan and' free
silver. This is what the Woman's. Na
' tional leaguo will undertake as soon as
its members can settle on the details of
a permanent organization. It is not ex
actly a married woman's league, al
though they predominate, and will be
held to strict account for one silver vote
each, for the work will go further and
reach men in crowds. ,
In a few days, if the contemplated per
manent organization turns out all right,
whosoever will may hear as much free
- silver talk in five minutes as he can di
gest in a day. The women themselves
will be heard on the absorbing question,
and men, married men in particular,
will dispute them at their peril.
It is the purpose of the women to go
into the campaign of education- with . a
number of open debating-rooms, where
all men may stop and listen and not be
asked if their wives know they are out.'
These rooms will be in the down-town
district, and will be open from noon till
midnight. The work will be extended
through the country, however, before
the campaign is over.
TEXAS KKPUBLICASS.
Conditions for Fusion Have Been Prac
tically Arranged.
Fort Woeth, Tex., Sept. 10. The Re
publican state convention reconvened at
10 o'clock this morning with a full rep
resentation. The credentials committee
reported forty contestants, all of which
were adjusted amicably. The committee
on resolutions recommended the ap
pointment of a committee of three with
plenary power to confer with a similar
committee of gold-standard Dempcrats
and Populists looking to an amicable di
vision of congressmen. The Populists
are enthusiastic over tbe matter. sThe
condition is already practically arranged.
H. B. Kain.of Palestine, an original Mc
Kinley man, was elected permanent
chairman. "Indications are E. H. R.
Geen will, be chosen unanimously for
governor, which is intended to harmon
ize all factions. The results of the con
vention thus far virtually shelve Cuney
and Grant.
Catliolio Singers Revolt.
St. Louis, Sept. 10. As to the law pro
mulgated by tbe synod of Catholic
priests of fhe St. Louis archdiocese, for
bidding Catholics to sing in ProteBtant
church choirs; many of tbe leading
singers say they will not obey it. Henry
S. Labarae, who has Bung tn the Firs
Presbyterian church for. 14 years, Ed
ward and Bernard Dierkes, who for 10
years have sung in the Lindell-avenue
Methodist church, all say they will pay
no heed to the law and tbey do not be
lieve any of the singers will.

to Secretary Bynum of the executive
committee of the gold Democrats, in re
sponse to an invitation to be present at
the notification of Palmer and Buckner:
'Hon. W. D. Bynum, chairman, etc:
I regret that lam unable to accept the
invitation of your committee to be pres
ent at the notification of Senator Palmer
and Governor Buckner of their nomina
tion by the national Democratic party
for president and vice-president of the
United States. The outcome of the In
dianapolis convention in the candidates
and platform is inspiring to every Dem
ocrat who refuses to abandon the prin
ciples established by our fathers, and
steadfastly maintained with pride and
honor, and who declined to adopt the
new and strange creed proclaimed in a
moment of delirium at Chicago, and
promptly recognized jjnd ratified as its
own by the Populist party at St. Louis.
J prefer to keep the old faith and re
main a Democrat, and shall accordingly
east my vote for Palmer and Buckner."
