In the National Convention of the Democratic Party. THE GOLD STANDARD ADHERENTS They Proposo to DIbcusb the Merits of Mon omentalllam Versus Bimetallism With Their Opponent-Senator Hill May he Temporary Chairman. CllICAao, July 8. It being understood that tho territories arc to Ijo allowed sis votes ouch, niul thut tho District of Co lumbia. Is to have six votes also, tho total uumher of votes In the coming Democratic convention Is HIS. Then 100 would boo majority and (112 a two-thirds maloritv. Of these figures tho silver men today claim theso states: Alabama, 22; Arkansas, 10 California, IB; Colorado, 8; Florida. G Georgia, 20; Iduho.O; Illinois, 18, Indiana, SO; Iowa, 20; Kansas, 20; Kentucky, 20 Louisiana, 18; Maine, 5; Minnesota, 7 Mississippi, 18; Missouri, 31 ; Montana, 0 Nebraska, 10; Nevada, 0; North Carolina 22; North Dakota, 0; Ohio. 88: Orotron. 8 South Carolina, 18; Tennessee, 21; Texas 80; Utah, 0; Virginia, 21; Washington, 8; West Virginia, 12; 'Wyomliig, 0; Alaska 0; Arizona, 0; District of Columbia, 0 Indian Territory, 0; u total of 5J0 votes. Tho gold standard people aro left on this basis only theso states, with the accom panying votes: Connecticut, 12; Dela ware, a; Morula, 8; Maine, 7; Mary land, 10; Massachusetts, 30; Michigan, 28; New Hampshire, 8; New Jersey, 20: Now York, 72; Ohio, 8; Pennsylvania 64; Ithodo Islund, 8; South Dakota. 8 Vermont, 8; Wisconsin, 21; a total of 3111 votes. In connection with these figures It will bo noticed that tho silver men lack but 10 votes of having tho necessary two-thirds limit, but they claim that tho eight vote" David a mu. counted for gold in Ohio will como to thorn after temporary organization, while -Michigan votes nro also expected. It will further bo noticed that Nebraska is figured in tno silver column, nnd this Is be causo, whllo thero is a contest, tho silver mon say that they will seo that tho gold standard men aro not seated. It is the security hi this preponderance of votes that makes tho silver leaders -confident of ulti mate victory. Tho decision upon tho abrogation of the two-thirds vote on nominations may be delayed until alter temporary and per manent organization and until just as the convention Is ready to nominate. Then, unlet! tho gold standard men recognie tho superiority of numbers and miccuiuL to tho inevitable, tho silver men will force tho Issuo and rescind tho long standing rule. The announcement that thoea-teni gold standard leaders, William C. Whitney, Sonator Hill and others would arrive here this evening litis put some heart Into the gold standard men who aro hero, and tht nrguiiiontiu hotel corridors waxes a little wanner. Tho rumor of a withdrawal oi tho gold standard forces from tho conven tion if they aro defeated Is still current, but It cannot bo definitely placed In the so far arranged plans of tho gold standard people. Tho plan arranged is at least cal culated to make things lively, even If It has not tho greater effect, tho ono tho gold standard men desire, of obtaining con verts. It will bo similar to tho plan adop ted by tho New York Democrats during tho days preceding tlio convention of 1SU2, when In tlio same halls tho orators fore told tho destruction of tho Democracy II President Cleveland was renominated. Tho plan Is to have Senator Hill. Mr. Whitney, ox-Mayor Grant, John K. Fol lows, Senator Smith of New Jersey, ox Governor Itussell of Massachusetts and other well known orators discuss tho sit uation with not only tho loaders of the gold standard movement from other states, mit witn tno lenders or tlio silver move ment. If theso discussions, liko tho Hill nnd Cleveland discussions of 1802, nro to lx) made public, tho result can hardly be foretold, for tho slaver element hero, now In suoh preponderance aro of an excltnblo character. A conference of tho gold stand ard mon Is called for 8 o'clock tonight at tho Auditorium, and it is hollered that n lino of action will bo mapped out at that tlmo. Tho statement that Wilson S. Hlssell, ol Duffalo, would act as delegato-at-largo in placo of United States Senator Murphy In tho New York delegation Is believed here to bo erroneous, as Mr. Murphy's alternate Is Jacob A. Cantor. Mr. Hlssell will, how ever, as a close friend of President Clove land, take au active part In tho light for gold. Headquarters of tho gold standard men havo been opened at thq Palmer House, ouo of tho largost parlors lielng set apart for that purpose. Tho gold standard men worn to bo quite confident that Hill will bo accepted by tho silver men for tempor ary chairman, tho argument they uso bo lug that tho many silver senators who will bo so prominent In tho convention, and who are tho head of tho silver movement.
