All the del^^egates are here to-day for the prelimi^^nary skirmish In the district meetings.^The polling of all the Louisville pa^^pers show that the gold delegate* are^In the majority. The silver men charge^that the Louisville papers claim most^of the unlnstructed delegates, while^they are equally divided. Linesare drawn on. the indorsement^of the administration, with Carlisle's^friends leading for the administration,^and Blackburn's friends against in^tinanclal policy. G,en. Casslus M. Clay^is the administration candidate for^governor and den. P. \V. Hardin is the^antl-admlnistratlon candidate. The^silver men will try to force the nomi^^nations before the adoption of a plat^^form. The gold men are bitterly op^^posed to this order of business, as they^claim that Hardin is stronger than the^free sllverites. The first test will come^to-morrow on the selection of tempo^^rary chairman, who has the appolnt-^j ment of two members at large on all^committees. One member will be ap^^pointed from each of the congressional^districts. It is estimated that the gold^men will have six and the sliver men^five on the committee of resolullnns^from the districts, but If the silver^men secure the temporary organization^the platform makers will stand seven^to six. This is the fight being made to^^day. ThePost, which strongly supports^the administration's financial policy,^to-day has a poll of delegates, showing^43.1 for Harding. 37S for rlay. 63 doubt^^ful. The Post says: ^There are Ml^delegates. 440 necessary to a choice,^and the polling Indicates Hardin lacks^only five votes. The Hardin men say^they have these five votes. This Is not^by any means certain. Oen. C. Gor^^don Williams was defeated lfi years^ago by James B. McCreary when with^^in five votes of the nomination. Ex-GovernorBuckner published a^card to-day saying he would not ac^^cept the nomination for governor.^Buckner is a candidate for senator on^a ^sound money^ platform and will^have uoUUjuc^^^1^'^-^- ^ To-nightthe ^sound money^ dele^^gates chose ex-Congressman \V. J.^Stone as their candidate for temporary^chairman. Thoy say Judge Heckner is^Blackburn's man. At the Winchester^convention last week he opposed the^endorsement of Clevland and Carlisle.^They will make a test on the vote be^^tween Heckner and Stone, the latter^being popular with some of the sllver^^ites and Hardin men. .Meantime the^^ onservatlvcs want both Heckner and^Stone to promise to appoint one sliver^man and one gold man as members-^at-large of the committee on resolu^^tions, and in fact to divide equally the^members-at-Iaige of all the commit^^tees. Senator lilackhurn. who has more^at slake at this convention than any^nf the state candidates, was disposed^to concede to the conservative plan of^an equal division of the members-at-^large on each of the commltteees. but^the radical silver men opposed it and a^meeting of the silver men was accord^^ingly called for 11 o'clovk to-night. The^silver men may he in conference all^night preparatory to the llht which be^gins in the congressional district meet^^ings In the morning. To-nightthe contest between the ad^^ministration ami anti-anclmlnistration^delegates has been more Litter than^ever. The fighting Is for temporary^organization, with a view to securing^the chairman, two members-al-large of^the committee on resolutions and con-^! trolling rules and order of business so^I that nominations shall he made be-^: fore the platform is adopted. As Gen-^| era! Hardin claims enough votes to^i nominate him, the honest money delc-^| gates want the platform adopted firsi.^There Is a conservative element want^^ing the convention to reaffirm the na^^tional platform of 1891' and go no furth^^er on the financial question, but the sil-^verites say that would imply an en^^dorsement of the administration. Sen^^ator Blackburn favors reaffirming of^the platform of 1S92 with an additional^affirmation that the pledges of 1892^have not been fulfilled by Presideni^Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle. The^conservatives argue that if General^Hardin Is nominated and so controls^the convention as It prevent the reaf^^firming of the national declarations of^1S92. that the state ticket and platform^would be outside of the party and thai^there might be some Justification In the^threatened bolt of the ultra gold men. Hon.James H. McCreary. chairamn^of committee on foreign affairs, Is In^the city to attend the democratic state^convention and is running aginst Sen^^ator Blackburn for chairman of the^committee on resolutions. Mr. Mc-^t'r. ary was a member of the interna^^tional monetary conference which met^at Brussels in 1S92. When seen to-day^by a representative of the Associated^Press, Mr. McCreary stated that his^experience with the English members^, of that conference gives him assurance^' that the advent of the Salisbury minis^^try will !^^ in tones of bimetallism,^as Lord Salisbury. Balfour and others^\orahle than Rosebery and^ln^ associates were f .p such a confer^^ence Mr. McCreary sai l h. was mop-^hopeful ^ow than bef't- of su h In^^ternational action as would settle the^ratio between the metals. He not only^regarded Lord Salisbury as favorable toan International monetary agree^^ment, but also as a very great states^^man who will be more liberal in his^| general policy than Rosebery. There^were active friends In England of bi^^metallism and Lord Salisbury would^recognize them. While England had^maintained a gold stardard since IMC^Mr. McCreary had no doubt bimetal^^lism had many friends among manufac^^turers, agriculturists and business men.

Poughkeepsle,N. Y.. June 24^ The^four mile stretch of Hudson river op-^posit^ Poughkeepslc has been christ^^ened as an Intercollegiate course by^the contest which was won to-night^hy the Columbia's l ight, over those of^Cornell and Pennsylvania. Cornell was^beaten by about six boat lengths. While^the victory was being won, Pennsylva^^nia swamped within three-quarters of^a mill' of the finish, where, sitting in^their shell waist deep in water, they^were waiting to be picked up by an ap^^proaching tug. Three distinctive forms^of applying strength to the sweeps of^the shell were observed during this^contest. It is scarcely fair to say oith^r^crew was outclassed by the other nu-^less it be that Cornell. In her light,^snappy form, was not the level an^^tagonist of so powerful and steady a^crew as Columbia. Inthe early afternoon the weather^was perfect and the water smooth, hut^at f. o'clock a light squall came on and^llclavtal the start. A^ Ml Robert Per^^kins lined the men up and gave the^word ^Go. Ayell went up from the crowd on^the hillside and from the moving ob^^servation train, whose wheels began^rumbling as the crews began their^four-mile struggle. Pennsylvania,^starting with a stroke of 38, pushed^her light shell to the fore, while for^a few minutes Columbia, rowing M^strokes to the minute, and Cornell, 4-'.^were on even terms. Pennsylvania's^lead, however, was very short, and al^^most before the spectators could ob^^serve that Pennsylvania had an ad^^vantage. Columbia, with these strong,^steady movements, crept and crept,^showing her nose more and more,^while Cornell had pulled even with^Pennsylvania, and there stuck on even^terms. The first mile was finished by^the leaders in five minutes. Atthe one and a half mile post there^was a clear length of water between^Columbia and Cornell, while OOIRiU^was Increasing her lead over Pennsyl^^vania. It was a case of ferocl NH phys^^ical power. The second mile was fin^^ished by the leaders In six minutes.^Opening the third mile, Cornell made^one Of the most remarkable efforts^seen in many years in a racing slid!^Splashing through seas, th^ ItkaM^men raised their stroke up to r.2 strokes^per minute. The third mile was ai -^cnmplished In 5 minutes and U sec^^onds. Columbiashot over the third mile^steadily and entirely within It or pow^^ers. Cornell came under the bndgt 1^.^seconds later and Pennsylvania DUN^last and toiled on for one-fourth of the^last mile, when It became evident that^she could not finish the rare, and e.l-^most while this n.nvlctlon came to^those who saw the referee's tug^ploughing M after the leaders the tug^passed the Quakers and gave tin in t^wash that tilled what little empty^space that remained in their shell, and^the plucky fellows sank slowly Into^I the river. They were lifted out kf^I ready hands and carried to their boat^I house. Columbiacrossed the line at 7:14:20^o'clock, covering the last mile in live^minutes eight seconds and four miles^i In 21:20. This is one minute and 10 sec-^| onds slower than a record said to hive^i been made at New London on the^I Thames, when that river was swollen^! with a freshet. Mrurkfor a Kslse.
