WAR ON MORTON.
McKinlpy League ol'Jiew York Object
to Him tor ViccPresidi-nt.
St Louis Mo June 16. The McKlnley
league of the Btate of New York held a
meeting this evening tr protest against
the attempt to force upon the conven
tion the nomination of Governor Mor
ton for the vlca presidency. Resolutions
to 'that effect offered by John P. Mllhol
lar.d and which, he said, had been ap
proved by McKlnley's friends here,
were adopted. The grounds for their
opposition were that the purpose of the
movement was to weaken the conven
tion; that It would drag Into national
politics the factional fight In New York
and that It was an Insult to the friends
of McKlnley In New York. They there
fore asked all the friends of McKlnley
to join Is opposing the attempt to nomi
nate Morton or any other New Yorker,
for the second place on the ticket.
"Dodgers" reading as follows were
subsequently EcatUtred all over the
city: '
"Colored Republicans: Can you af
ford to support fcr vice president a man
who, while occupying that ofllce re
Elgned his place ns prtsidlng olllcer to
8. Democrat when the Lodge election bill
came up before the United States
senate?
No, of course not,"
"Then you cannot entertain the Idea
lor a moment of giving the second place
on the ticket to Levi P. Morton of New
York.
The Lodge election bill, had it be
come a law, would have given two mil
lions of colored Republicans In the
outh the right of franchise guaranteed
by the constitution, but was withheld
owing to the treachery or dough-faced
leadership of such Republicans as
Thomas C. Piatt's candidate for vice
president.

CANTON DECORATING.
Citizens at McKlnley's Home Prepar
ing to Spread Red Paint.
Canton, Ohio, June 16. Canton has
begun decorating in anticipation of the
demonstration with which the news of
Major McKlnley's expected nomination
for the presidency at St. Louis Is to be
received. A rain which began at noon,
threatens to Interfere with the progress
of the preparations, but all will be In
readiness, doubtless, when the time
comes. One hundred rounds of am
munition were received this morning,
to be used In the brass cannon, mount
ed on the public square.
The cannon being connected by wire
- with convention' hall, It will be tired
simultaneously with, the announcement
of the nomination. At that signal the
' fire alarm bells will be run, whistles of
the factories In this and surrounding
towns will be blown. If In the day time
'.' all business of whatever kind will be
' suspended In Canton, and the citizens,

reeldenoe and congratulate him.

WORK AT ST. LOUIS
(Concluded from Page t)
At the close of the chaplain's prayer.
Chairman Carter said:
"This convention is assembled in com
pliance with the terms of a call Issued
by the national committee on the 14th
of December, 1895, which call the sec
retary will now proceed to read."
The secretary did so, in a voice which
was inaudible at ten feet distant, and
amid frequent cries of "louder." Chair
man Carter then said: "Gentlemen of
the convention, by direction of the na
tional committee I present for your ap
proval for your temporary chairman,
Hon. Charles W. Fairbanks, of Indi
ana." Mr. Sutherland, on behalf of the New
York delegation, moved that the selec
tion of the committee be approved, and
this was carried without a dissenting
voire.
Mr. Fairbanks, a tall and very slim
gentleman, with a dark, close-cropped
beard and moustache, came forward
and In a clear and distinct tone, with
only one occasional reference to his
notes, delivered the following address,
wnicn was frequently applauded:
FAIRBANKS' SPEECH.
The Republican party is the rjartv of
convlctionsand it has written its con
victions In the history of the republic with
pen and sword. With it the supreme
question has always been not what Is
merely "politic," but what is everlastinir.
ly "right." The great men we have given
to the nation and to history, the nilchtv
dend and illustrious living, are our Inspir
ation and tower of strength. If we urj
but true to their example we cannot be
false to our countrymen. Fairbanks ta.
ferred to the prosperity of the country
uuuer me laws enacted by the Repub
lican party during Its control of the kov-
eminent, saying that on Nov. 8, 1SH2. there
was work for every hund, grend for ev
ery mouth. We had reauhed high water
murk. Labor received higher waites than
ever and capital was profitably secured.
1 he national revenues were sufficient to
meet our obligations and leave a sur
plus In the treasury. The foreign and do-
nestle trades were greater In volume and
value than they had ever been. The for
otgn balances were largely In our favor.
European gold was flowing toward us.
But all this Is changed. The cause Is not
hard to seek; reaction began when It was
known that the legislative and executive
branches of the government were to be
Democratic. The Democratic party nt
Chicago condemned the protective tariff
principle as unconstitutional and solemn
ly pledged Itself to overthrow to destruc
tion the McKlnley law and to the adop
tion of free trade as the policy of tho
United States.
THE WILSON BILL.
Before the work of demolition actually
begun a run was started upon the treas
ury reserve which the Republican party
hud wisely accumulated for the protection
of the government credit. The drain upon
the reserve for the redemption of green
backs and treasury notes greatly sur.
passed all prior experience and empha
sized the discredit Into which the Dem
ocratic administration had fallen. An ut
ter want of confidence In the administra
tion possessed the people. He reviewed
the conditions thut have prevailed sines
the Incoming Democratic administration,
the passage of the tariff law which Cleve
land was unable to approve and that falls
to provide sufficient revenue resulting In u
dally growing deficiency leaving the treas-
ury and publiu credit in constant peril.
We are now sending aboard millions of dol
lars for wool, which were paid our fnrm
ers under the McKlnley law. The reclp.
roclty which the Wilson bill struck down,
was one of tho highest achievements of
American citizenship. No measure was
ever enacted which more directly ad
vanced the interests of American farmers
and manufacturers. The substitution of
ad valorem for specific duties has opened
the way ror systematic wholesale frauds
upon the treasury and producers and em .
ployes of the country. Thus we lost mill
Ions of dollars In revenue and foreign pro-
ducers havo been enabled to unfairly pos
sess our home markets. The Democrutln
party's revenue legislation has been a
great and original factor In breaking down
confidence, checking progress, emptying
the treasury, causing continued deficits
and enforced Idleness among millions of
willing workers.
Having attempted to reverse the tariff
policy of the United States with the la
mentable result that the Democratic party
now proposes to reverse the currency
policy. It turns to the currency as the
parent of our Ills. Its effort to ship the re
sponsibility will deceive no one; its record
of Inefficiency and Insincerity Is a part
of the unfortunate history of the repub
lic. The present currency system Is fruit
of Republican wisdom. It has been equal
to all our past necessities and If Incor
rupted will meet our future requirements.
Our greatest prosperity was attained when
the Republican currency lawn were in
full operation. When the Republican par.
ty was In power our currency was good.
It was made as good as the best on the
globe. We made sound money and we nlno
made an honest protective tariff go with
It. Sound money and honest protective
tariff go hand In hand together, not onn
before the other. The very foundation of
the sound currency system Is a solvent
treasury. If the people doubt the Integ
rity of the treasury they will question the
soundness of the currency. Recognizing
this fundamental fact the Republican par
ty always provided ample revenue for the
treasury. The Democratic party hadn't In
fifty years advocated financial policy that
was tho best for the American people.
USE OB' SILVER.
The Republican party has not been un
friendly to the proper use of sliver and has
always favored and favors today the use
of silver again as a part of our circulat
ing medium, but It favors that use under
such provisions and safeguards us not to
impair the present national standard. The
policy of the party Is to retain both. Thi
policy of tno tree coinage ot silver leads
to certain Immutable law that two moneys
of unequal value will not circulate to.
gether und the poorer always drives out
the better. Those who profess to believe
that this government can independently
of the other great commercial powers
open its mints to the free and Independent
coinage of silver at a ratio of la to 1, when
the commercial ratio In all great markets
Is 30 to 1 and at the same time not drive
every dollar ot gold out of circulation,
but deceive themselves. Great and splen
did and powerful aB our government Is, It
cannot accomplish the Impossible. It can-

not create value. It has not the alchem
ist's subtle art of transmitting unlimited
sliver into gold, nor can It toy omnipo
tent fiat make fifty cents worth a hundred
rents. The attempt to compel unlimited
dollars of such unequal value to circulate
at a parity to bad In morals and vicious in
politics. '
Long before he had finished his
lengthy address Mr. Fairbanks' voice,
in the effort to accomplish the impossi
ble task of reaching every part of the
immense auditorium, became painfully
distressed, but still most of his points
were taken up by those nearest to him;
those in the distance waved their fans
in unison with the applause of those in
front. His reference to the impossibil
ity ot compelling EO-cent dollars to cir
culate In unlimited numbers on a parity
with gold was greeted with loud bursts
of applause, while Senator Teller smiled
sardonically and one of the western del
egates In the rear emitted a dismal owl
call. His reference to Blaine produced
a genuine demonstration, the conven
tion rising and cheering repeatedly.
APPLAUSE FOR CUBA.
When Cuba was referred to flags were
waved and there was considerable hand
clapping. This applause was redoubled
In recognition when his closing sen
tences declaring that the fight of 1S!6
was between free trade and free silver
against honest money and protection.
At the conclusion of Mr. Fairbanks'
speech Mr. Carter proposed the ap
pointments of the secretary, assistant
secretaries, sergeant at arms, official
stenographer and other officials and the
persons ro named were declared duly
appointed. W. Lamb, delegate from
Virginia, offered a resolution which
was agreed to, thut until a .permanent
organization is effected the convention
will be governed by the rules of the last
Republican convention. Mr. Lamb also
offered another resolution which was
also adopted, ordering that thu roll of
states and territories be now called and
that the chairman of each delegation
announce the names of the persons se
lected to serve on the several commit
tees as follows: (1) On permanent or
ganization; (2) on rules and order of
business; (3) on credentials; (4) on reso
lutions. Also that all resolutions in respect to
the platform shall be referred to the
committee without debate. The states
were then called for their selection of
delegates ns members of the several
committees.
SENATOR TELLER RECOGNIZED.
When the name of Senator Teller wus
announced as a member of the com
mittee on resolutions for his state there
was a small outburst of applause, after
which the call was proceeded with.
When Massachusetts sent up the
name of Senator Lodge as its represen
tative on the committee on resolutions'
there was a counter demonstration on
the part of the gold standard men. Hon.
Joseph B. Foraker was sent up as the
representative of the state of Ohio on
the committee on resolutions and when
It was rend nt the clerk's desk It was
hailed with cheers.
When the reading of the roll was
completed Mr. Clayton, of Arkansas,
gent up n resolution which he desired
to have read and to have referred, but
oposltlnn was made to Its being read
and It was referred without reading.
It related to the determination of elec
tion contests.
Another resolution from colored peo
ple of Illinois affecting their right as a
race was treated in a like manner.
After an announcement of the places
and times of meeting of the four com
mittees, the convention at 1.47 adjourned
to tomorrow at 10 a. m.
THE FINANCIAL PLANK.
Mr. Teller's Efforts to Introduce Sil
vvr Arc in Vniu.
St. Louis, June 16. The; sub-committee
on resolutions tonight resolved
to recommend to the committee on reso-.
lutlons the following financial plank:
"Republican party is unreservedly
for sound money. It caused the enact
ment of the law providing for the re
sumption 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. W e are therefore opposed to 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
until such agreement can be obtained.
the existing gold sftindard must be pre
served. All our silver and paper cur
rency now In circulation must be main
tained at parity with gold, and we favor
all measures designed to maintain In
violably the obligations of the United
States and all our money whether coin
or paper, at the present standnrd, tho
standard of the "frost enlightened na
tion of the earth."
The ndoptlon of the above plank was
not concurred In until four different
propositions submitted by Mr. Teller
were voted down. First. Mr. Teller
proposed a straight-out plank for free
coinage at 16 to 1. This was followed
by a proposition to coin the American
product, although Mr. Teller frankly
confessed that he did not endorse this
proposition, but would take 1t If It were
possible tn get It. The third proposition
of Mr. Teller was a resolution declaring
for free coinage accompanied -by rea
sons which. In brief, set forth the fact
that the protective tariff system could
not be maintained on r gold standard
basis. The fourth proposition was a
resolution submitted by Mr. Teller at
the request of Mr. Fowler, of Wyoming.
It provided for tho coinage of tho
American product and a tariff on all
silver and silver ores Imported Into the
United States.
Mr. Toller, having been defeated all
along the lino, snld that he was willing
to leave tho construction of the rest of
the platform to the rest of the commit
tee and started for his rooms for the
purpose of getting a guod night's rest.
It was at Mr. Teller's request that the
committee decided to make public the
financial plank upon which It had
agreed.
VICTORY FOR HIGGINS.
Tho committee on credentials tonight
refused to seat the Addlcks delegation
from Delaware by a vote of 29 nays to
20 ayes and seated the HIgglns delega
tion by a vote of 31 to 17.
COMMITTEE ON RESOLUTIONS.
Governor Forukcr, or Ohio, Is Uleclcd
Chairman.
St. Louis, June 10. Tho committee on
resolutions, when the convention ad
journed, proceeded at once to the Lln
dell hotel and organized. Senator
Lodge, ot Massachusetts, called the
convention to order and nominated Mr.
Foraker, of Ohio, as chairman. Mr,
Teller, of Colorado, placed Mr. Dubois
In nomination, Forty-one persons an
swered to their names. Governor For
aker was elected, 35 votes being east for
him and tour for Dubois. Those wno
voted for Dubois wore the members
from Colorado, Montana, Nrth Caro
lina and Utah, Neither Foraker nor
Dubois voted, the former announcing
that he refrained from voting as a mat
ter of principle and not because of his
lack ot personal esteem for bis com
petitor. A similar statement was made
by Mr. Dubois, whereupon Mr. Foraker
took the chair.
Mr. Merriam, ot Minnesota, moved
that a sub-committee be appointed to
draft a platform and present it tonight
to the full committee, his suggestion
was opposed by Messrs. Teller and Du
bois, the leaders of the silver move
ment, on the ground that it was better
to discuss the financial plank In full
committee. If its consideration were
left to a sub-commtttee, they contended,
the argument against a gold standard
plank, which they understood was to be
adopted, would have to be made twice.
They thought It advisable therefore
that, so far as that particular plank
was concerned, the sub-commlttee-mlght
be excused from considering It.
Mr. Merrlam's motion was carried and
the chair appointed a committee con
sisting of Messrs. Foraker, of Ohio,
chairman ex-ornclo; Lodge, of Massa
chusetts: Merriam, of Minnesota: Fes
senden. of Connecticut; Teller of Colo
rado; Warmoth. of Louisiana, and Pat
terson, of Illinois.
MR. BURLEIGH'S PLEA.
A t this Dolnt. Mr. Rnrlalcrh
Washington, arose and entered a Btrong
r.t-a m luvor or giving the Pacific slope
a representative on the committee.
This brought Mr. Darlington, of Penn
sylvania, to his feet with a declaration
that the wo great eastern state. New
York and Pensylvunla, which represent
In the aggregate one-fourth of the popu
lation of the country, were not repre
rented on the committee and he thought
for that reason that the Pacific elope
could also remain unrepresented. After
some discussion, however, the commit
tee was Increased by the addition of itwo
other members, Mr. Burlelgh. of Wash
ington and Mr. Lauterbueh. of New
York.
A motion to adjourn until eight o'clock
this evening was carried, the under
standing being that the sub-committee
would meet at D o'clock and begin at
that time the formulation of the plat
form. If they have not concluded ait 8
o'clock, when the full committee meets
they will at least report progress and go
again Into executive session to complete
their work. The silver members of the
commlittee are displeased at the meagre
representation given them. They com
plain also thut several members of the
coirfmittee whom they had regarded as
blmetalllsts have "fallen down" as they
phrase It, and joined the ranks of the
gold men.
THE COMMITTED.
The committee was appointed by the
chairman after conference with Senator
Lodge. It consists of seven gold men,
one sound money man, and one silver
man. An. analysis of the personel of
this committee shows that It was care
fully selected and for a specific purpose.
Governor Merriam, of Minuesota, Is tho
author of one of the Btaunchest gold
plunks offered for the consideration of
the committee. The standing of Sena
tor Lodge, of Massachusetts, Mr. Fes
senden, of Connecticut, Mr. Lauterbach,
of New York and Mr. Patterson, of Illi
nois, Is unequivocal. Mr. Burleigh , of
Washington reprtsents the state that
was among the last to pass gold resolu
tions. Mr. Foraker, although preferr
ing the omission of the word "gold" ac
cepts the situation and will vote for
that Ptnndard. Ex-Governor Warmoth,
of Louisiana, will fall into line, this
leaving Mr. Teller the solitary silver
man on the committee. From such a
committee the character of the plank
can be readily discounted.
MR. PLATT'S DENIAL.
Insists That Mr. Morton Has Not
Agreed to Accept Vice-Presidency.
St. Louis, Mo., Juno 16. T. C. Piatt
satd to a representative of the United
Tress thl.t afternoon: "Mr. Morton Is
still a can.lldafe for tl-.o flrst place on
tho ticket,"
In answ-jr to a luestlon as to n state
ment published that he (Mr. Piatt) had
received a telegram from Mr, Morton
today expressing his willingness to ac
cept a nomination as vice president If
it were off-tri him, Mr. 1'latt said: 1
can pos:tliroly deny having received any
such telegram, I repent. Mr. Mutton
is still In the field for president."
From another source it was learned,
however, that many of the leading
mantpulars think it Is practically de
cided that Mr. Morton will be nomi
nated for vice president after Major
McKlnley has been placed at the head
of the ticket, and that assurances have
been received that Mr. Morton will ac
cept. One of the most prominent of the
eastern delegates said this afternoon:
"The ticket will be McKlnley and Mor
ton. You may put that down as set
tled. An understanding has been
reached which will bring about that
result. Matters have been drifting that
way for some time and unless the un
for seen happens Mr. Morton will stand
again for the vice presidency."
