Chicago, 111.. July 11.)
The Democratic National Convention
has adjourned, but it has set in motion
forces that will stir every stratum of so
ciety in this country as they have not been
stirred since the straggle for the enancipa
tion of the black slaves. I do not now speak
of the merits of the issues presented. Re
gardless of the merits, the battle will be
tremendously earnest and its results, both
immediate and remote, must be of great
importance to mankind, no matter which
side wins.
At the head of the movement on the
Democratic side is a man of indomitable
will, tireless energy, commanding ability
and sublime courage. He has to-day se
lected New York as the first battle-ground
of the campaign and is going there in per
son to lead the assault He is to speak in
Madison Square Garden, New York city,
during the present month, and as soon as
possible he will speak in all the large
cities of New York. The campaign prom
ises to be as earnest and vigorous as was
the course of the silver delegates in the
convention.
The silver men, flushed by their first
victory over the gold forces, are filled with
the hope of similar successes at the polls.
On the streets of Chicago to-day men are
everywhere discussing the money ques
tion. The gold men are threatening to
form an independent sound-money Dem
ocratic party, but the silver men are
utterly indifferent to the threats. They
seek to argue the question with the gold
men, but do not attempt to dissuade them
from bolting. Indeed, most of the silver
ites think the gold men will knife the
ticket secretly if they do not bolt, and that
they can do less harm as bolters than they
can ac nomt.ial supporters of the ticket.
The contest for tne nomination for Vice-
President this morning was full of sur
prises, and was much more animated than
was expected. The Californians were
startled on learning on the first ballot that
Joseph C. Sibley of Pennsylvania was
practically slated for the place. As Sibley
was a supporter of the funding bill in the
Fifty-third Congress, we set to work dili
gently to prevent his nomination. It re
quired Quick and hard work, but the sec
ond ballot showed that his nomination
had been made impossible.
It pained me greatly to be obliged to
make such a vigorous and uncompromis
ing fight against Sibley, because person
ally I esteem him highly. He is a good
man, but, like Dog Tray, fell into bad
company, and this is no time for trifling
with supporters of the funding scheme.
I know nothing of Mr. Sewall, the
nominee, except that the members of the
Democratic National Committee, with
whom he served for several years, speak of
him in the highest terms. I think that
one of the controlling reasons for his
nomination was the determination of the
convention to disprove and set at rest the
foolish and unpatriotic assertion of Sen
ator Tillman that this is a sectional con
test of the South and West against the
East. Sewall is and has long been an
earnest advocate of the free and unlimited
coinage of silver.
Under a resolution adopted by the con
vention to-day it is quite likely that Mr.
Tarpey will be added to the National
Committee. He is unquestionably a most
useful and influential man in his present
place. James G. Magcire.
JONES MADE CHAIRMAN,
Succeeds Harrlty in Guidlnar the
Destinies of the Democratic
National Committee.
CHICAGO, 111., July 11.— In accordance
with the call issued by Chairman Harrity
of the National Committee the members of
the old and new organizations met at the
Palmer House at 5 o'clock this afternoon.
There were present all told about seventy
five gentlemen and besides the members
of the committee a number of newspaper
men were given seats. Mr. Harrity said,
after calling the members to order, that
the meeting was held in accordance with
the general custom of bringing together
the members of the old and new commit
tees after the convention had completed
its work, in order to become acquainted
and that authority mignt be given to close
up the business in connection with the
convention, which now consisted largely,
if not altogether, of payment of expenses
incurred on account of its meeting.
He was happy to inform the members of
the committee that funds were in the
hands of the treasurer more than sufficient
to meet all the obligations that were out
standing and to return to the treasurer of
tne citizens' committee something of a
surplus lor distribution to the contributors
CHARACTERISTICS OF WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN.
Doesn't drink.
Doesn't smoke.
Doesn't chew.
Doesn't swear.
Doesn't pay cards.
Doesn't play billiards.
Doesn't ride the bicycle.
Doesn't know what it is to be revengeful.
Gets an idea and takes it for granted
that hejs right
to the fund. He recommended tbat for
this purpose the sub-committee of the
National Committee in charge of the
arrangements for the convention be con
tinued until its business be fully con
cluded, and this was ordered without
objection. He complimented the treasurer
of the local league for his efficiency and
success in accumulating the funds for the
payment of the convention expenses,
although it had been a difficult and some
what tedious job to get together the neces
sary amount of funds, but they were all in
band now and nothing more need be said
abcut that.
General Blair of Kansas, the oldest mem
ber of the committee in point of service,
except Mr. Sulloway of New Hampshire,
claimed the attention of the committee to
present resolutions of thanks to Chairman
Harrity for the impartiality, faithfulness
and singleness of devotion with which the
chairman of the committee had performed
the duties of his position, and to Secretary
Sheerin for his successful labors, always so
courteously and kindly giveu.
The resolutions were unanimously
adopted by a rising vote, and the chairman
and secretary made suitable acknowledg
ment of the compliments paid them.
Before the resolutions were adopted
Charles S. Thomas of Colorado and A. 8.
Clayton of Alabama seconded them,
highly eulogizing Sheenu and Harrity.
This having been disposed of Mr. Har
ritv suggasted that the roll of the new
committee be called, which was done and
their addresses recorded by Secretary
Sheenn. It was noticed that among the
absentees were the representatives of
New York, Rhode Island, Massachusetts,
Vermont, Connecticut and Maryland.
There being no further business before
the committee it adjourned.
Vvhile the committee was in session the
candidates— Messrs. Bryan and Sewall—
came into the room and were heartily con
gratulated, but took no part in the pro
ceedings.
A few minutes later Mr. Harrity said he
had been requested to call the members
of the new committee to order. He was
made temporary chairman and Mr. Shee
rin was made temporary secretary. An
executive session was held.
Senator Wi.ite suggested that the
method followed four years ago be
adopted on this occasion and tbat the
candidates be notified at a ratification
meeting to be held in New York City
within a reasonable period of time, within
a fortnight or so.
Governor Stone of Missouri thought it
would be better to follow the lone custom
of both parties of notifying both candi
dates at their homes.
Mr. Bryan was called upon for an ex
pression of opinion and indorsed White's
proposition. He said he thought it would
be a good thing for the party if the candi
dates would go into the East, where he
explained the platform and candidates
had been generally misrepresented, so that
the candidates might be presented to the
people of that section and they might see
for themselves what manner of men they
were asked to vote for and the principles
for which they stood.
Mr. Sewall, who had been out of the
room temporarily, returned while Mr.
Bryan was sneaking and briefly expressed
his approval of what the Presidental can
didate had said.
The National Committee took a recess
at this point until 9 o'clock and a meeting
of the notification committee was held.
Tnis lasted half or three-quarters of an
hour, in the course of wnlch a proposition
to make the notification in accordance
with Senator White's suggestion and tne
approval of the candidates themselves
was discussed. The matter was finally
referred to a sub-committee of seven, con
sistine of Messrs. White, Plaisted of Min
nesota, Masters of Illinois, O'Donnell of
Colorado, Shields of Tennessee, Danforth
of New York and Holden of Ohio. They
will meet at Candidate Bryan's room at
the Clifton House on Monday at 9 o'clock
to make arrangements for the notification,
fixing the date, arranging the programme
of speeches, etc.
The committee reassembled at 9:30 and
Senator Jones of Arkansas was unani
mously chosen chairman. This selection
had been predetermined for some weeks.
The chairman was authorized to appoint
a temporary secretary, and he selected for
the position Hugo Wallace of Washington
State, a son-in-law of Chief Justice Fuller.
The attention of the committee for the
next hour was largely devoted to the de
tails of organization, the appointment of
sergeant-at-arms and other similar mat
ters. In the course of the discussion,
however. Senator Tillmau of South Caro
lina took occasion to express a few
opinions about the platform, stating his
belief to be that the men running npon it
would be successful without question.
ANTI-SILVER DEMOCRATS.
Cook County Leaders Mads Sad by
Being Left Alone In the
Wide West. '
CHICAGO, 111., July 11.— The Illinois
anti-silver Democrats, who have been
actively represented from the beginning
of the fight by Cook County party leaders,
were disappointed to-day to find they had
been practically left alone In the West to
meet and decide the question of another
Democratic National Convention. The
announcement last night Dy the Illinois
"Sound-money" Democratic League that
an address would be issued to the Democ
racy of the United States setting forth the
necessity for another Democratic conven
tion was expected to be followed by the
co-operation of the Eastern delegates.
The Eastern States did not make any
formal declaration in favor of the stand
taken by the Illinois and Texas gold
standard men. It was said in explanation
that many of the delegates had left for
their homes and that the prevailing senti
ment was to test the feeling of their people
on the question before openly declaring for
another convention. Franklin MacVt agh,
chairman of the committee to draft the
address, and other Cook County leaders,
expressed their disappointment at not re
ceiving prompt support from their Eastern
friends. The address is being prepared,
and may be issued Monday.
Will Support Bryan.
MILWAUKEE, Wis., July 11.—Ex-Con
gressman Peter J. Somers, who has here
tofore been a gold man, announced his ac
tive support of Bryan. The Populists in
this city are enthusiastic in their indorse
ment of Bryan and favor his indorsement
at St. Louis July 22.
Goes to church regularly.
Is devoted to his wife.
Is happy in his home life.
Is particular about his dress.
Is not "stuck up."
Is as fond of talking to a street laborer
as to a Governor.
Has been thoroughly spoiled by admira
tion, in that he believes he knows all
there is to know.
THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, JULY 12, 1896.
COMMENT OF OUR
ENGLISH COUSINS,
Regard the Chicago Conven
tion as a Zoological
Curiosity
AND BRYAN AS A COWBOY
References to " the Despotism of
Lombard Street" Are
Not Understood.
BRITISH POLITICS TIRESOME.
Significance of the Reception to Bos
ton's Ancient and Honor
able Visitors.
LONDON, Eng., July 11.— Thus far Eng
lish journals, and English public also,
consider the Chicago convention much
more as a zoological curiosity than as a
serious political event. There is nothing
in their comment which would alter or
illume the opinions which our own
thoughtful men have formed about it. A
suggestion of cowboys ana bucking horses
and a tremendous fusillade of blank cart
ridges from the roof of the Dead wood stage
coach colors the general British concep
tion of the wild West, and youne Mr.
Bryan, the boy orator, becomes easily
associated in reminiscencej with the
leather-lunged person who used to an
nounce Colonel Cody's programme to
listening thousands at Earls court. As to
the vehement references in the Populists'
platform to British gold monometallism
and the oratorical references to "the des
potism of Lombard street," no one here
understands them or discusses them.
British politics have no loneer even the
merit of being picturesque. There is noth
ing remotely suggesting a circus or any
thing else amusing or remarkable about
Parliament. Those inside share with those
outside the common emotion of wearied
disgust. To-day it is said that there has
been a mistake in the steering of the
finance bill's earlier stages through the
House, which will necessitate a consider
able extension of the time allotted for its
discussion on report, and thus throw the
whole ministerial programme once more
into confusion. Tory members hear this
with merely another groan. Gross mis
management has come to be the expected
thing.
The Government sustained a grave
moral defeat over its scheme for forcing
India to pay the expenses of the troops
that England is borrowing from her for
use in the boudan. Twenty-three of the
most influential supporters of the Govern
ment voted openly against it, twice that
number refused to vote at all, and there
are not a dozen men in the whole 400 who
are not privately cursing the mean stupid
ity for this transaction. The blame for it
is laid entirely on the shoulders of Sir
Michael Hicks-Beach, who threatened to
resign if he *as not allowed to squeeze
this paltry sum out of India,
I have never seen a more general and out
spoken disaffection in any party organiza
tion than is to be witnessed now in the ma
jority at Westminster. Gerald Balfour has
made quite as melancholy a hash of his
chances as has his brother Artnur. His
weak attempt to please all sides with an
Irish land bill has finally evolved a sort of
monster which nobody will accept. De
bate on it begins Monday, but its fate is a
foregone conclusion, and its collapse will
probably shake some of the ministers out
of their seat-.
If this powerful Tory majority han any
leadership worthy the name it might have
had all its sessional business well in hand
by this time. As it is, chaos threatens
everything. So many people on all sides
are keen about the bill making the use of
motor carriages possible on highways that
it will probably get through, but there is
positively no certainty about anything
else.
The deceased wife's sister bill needs a
miracle in its behalf to secure a place in
the business schedule of the House of
Commons. Its backers profess to have a
slight hope that this will be attained, but
the chance is hardly worth discussing.
The final victory of this measure in the
House of Lords yesterday was largely
helped by the disclosure of a circular letter
which Cardinal Vaughan bad sent to the
Catholic peers telling them that the Pope
wanted the bill beaten. This interference
of an Italian priest in English legislation
comes at just the time to make everybody
furious. Englishmen were already angry
about the recent Anglo-Saxon flirtation
with the Vatican and about a report that
the Jesuits are to start a college at Oxford
inside the university system and if any
thing could interest them in setting all
else aside and shoving this measure
through the Commons it would be the
knowledge that Rome would take it as a
slap in the face.
The most interesting feature of the week
in continental politics has been the per
sistent reports from various Levantine
sources that a French occupation of Cy
prus is under discussion at Constantinople.
Most of these rumors suggest that Russia
urges this upon France and that both of
these nations are pressing it on the Sultsn.
For many reasons the story seems like a
"ballon deesai" rather than like a reflec
tion of aciual facts; but even if it is merely
put forth as a feeler it has some value.
Turkey continues to fall in pieces. Each
week brings new reports of troops mutiny
ing, and the provincial governments are
lapsing into anarchy. It is plain that mat
ters cannot go on indefinitely as they are,
and as the critical time approaches each
suggestion of possible action by one or an
other group of powers gathers fresh im
portance.
To-morrow's secondary elections in Bel
gium have taKen on new interest, owing to
the movement started at the last moment
inside the Liberal party to cast its vote as
between two evils for socialism rather than
lor clericalism.
Last Sunday's elections revealed the
clericals as about holding their own, with
a considerable plurality over the socialists.
Is a great newspaper reader.
Is fond of telling stories.
Makes acquaintances easily.
Is always in a good humor.
Is always ready for an argument.
Never examines into the merits of the
other side of a question.
Believes nearly all men are sincere ir
politics, but only that they do not know
the truth.

but they have no actual majority because
of the much smaller Liberal minority.
When this happened tne last time the
Liberals on the Second ballot threw their
votes to the clericals and put them in
power. Now, after two years' experience
of priestly rule, they ask themselves
whether even socialism is not preferable,
and their leading journals for the past
week have been urging that it is. Hence
to-morrow's results may have some inter
esting surprises.
From many points of view it would be
easy to exaggerate the international sig
nificance of the joyous good time which
all classes of Londoners are conspiring to
give the Ancient and Honorable visitors
from Boston. Individually they are types
of the Americans who have always be"n
delighttully welcomed here by all who had
the chance of meeting them.
Their comma in a body, with guns, flags
and that superb Salem Cadet band— which
knocks everything Londoners are in the
habit of hearinp— has simply multiplied
this chance of extended hospitality to an
indefinite decree. Their hosts are already
looking rather pallid and used up, but the
guests are still as brieht ns a dollar. They
know the whole royal family and a good
pp.rt of the peerage by sight, and as for
the Prince of Wales, he seems to be an old
friend to them. It was delightful to note,
when they met for the first time Thurs
day evening, with what electric swiftness
both the Prince and the visitors recognized
that they were made for one another. All
through the evening the Prince wore a
broad and unctuous smile — like nothing
else so much as it was like the grin on the
conventional effigies of King Gambrinus—
and the Ancients could hardly eat dinner
for their eagerness to be up on their feet,
splitting the air with yells of affection for
this admirable good fellow, who wore his
blue-garter sash with ordinary evening
clothes and miniature orders on his lapel
to give the occasion its highest possible
note of formal importance, but at the
same time to make it all seem free and
easy.
So immense was the crush of notables at
this huge feast, that men like Chauncey M.
Depew and Henry Irving had incon
spicuous seats at a side table there. They
were sandwiched in among London

privates who had never heard of Mr.
Depew and had never seen Irving save
from the shilling-gallery. The privates of
the London Honorable Artillery gave little
anxiety to those who knew them best at
the outset, for they are socially of a vastly
different grade from the Boston visitors,
and this generally makes things awkwara
in England; but, thanks to the wild whirl
of activity imposed on everybody by the
programme, there was time for nothing
but ardent and sustained cheerfulness all
around.
Mr. Bayard's noble speech caught these
young clerks and shopmen of London.
Open-mouthed in wonder and admiration,
ihey cheered him and all his words about
the common ties of the two lands as they
probably never had cneered anything be
fore in their lives, and the Bostonians were
equally vociferous.
It was the Prince of Wales, however,
who was the real hero of the occasion,
and who along with the- Princess — who
yesterday made the pretty point of hav
ing the stars and stripes brought to her
and fondling the silk in her bands — will
remain uppermost in the memory of the
Ancients.
Nothing has been lacking to prove what
I insisted on last January that, so far as
the court here is concerned, it is pro
foundly anxious to maintain the warmest
relations between the two countries. A
I century ago it was the court wnich hated
the American and the politicians who de
plored this hatred. George Ill's only liv
ing grandson, the Duke of Cambridge,
still rather snares this ancestral feeling,
but his cousin Victoria has another view,
and her son and heir goes so much farther
in the same direction that by comparison
the modern English politicians seem
almost anti- American.
Madagascar, I am told, is destined to
figure very prominently in Anglo-French
discussions during the next few montns.
There is a concerted effort on the part of
the smali French colony of office-seekers
and contract-mongers out there to get rid
of the resident General Laroche, whose
double offense is that he is learning the
urgent native problem and is resolutely
extending fair play to ths English-speak
ing missionaries on the islani. It is pos
sible that Laroche may keep via place,
though this is dependent on the vicissi
tudes of home politics. But it is morally
certain that the English-speaking mis
sionaries will have to get out Already
their position is very unpleasant, and the
French colonial party is egging on the
colonists to render that position insuffera
ble. It is the fact that they teach English
in the native schools to which objection is
chiefly made, and by fair means or foul,
this is bound to be stopped. America, it
is understood, is quite aa directly affected
by this as England is, but it is not thought
that even joint remonstrances from Wash
ington and London will produce any re
sults.
The news that the Duke of Wellington
is seriously ill had served to recall to the
public the fact that this great title is not
extinct. The present Duke, during the
twelve years of his incumbency, has hardly
been mentioned in public hearing. All
that is said of him now is that physically
he presents an extraordinary likeness to
the late Mr. Spurgeon in his latter years
of gross unwieldiness of bulk and swollen
features.
Cardinal Bourret's obituary notices al
lude to the fact that he is the Cardinal
Bergerot of Zola's "Rome." Americans
could find even more striking analogies
for this venerable, sweet-souled. saintly
humanitarian in their own experience of
devoted prelates, who wear their hearts
out in fighting the cause of the poor and
lowly against the organized bigotry and
meanness of Vatican politics.
Henry M. titan icy, after a long and ex
hausting struggle, is said really to have
turned the corner of his grave illness, and
to be on the road tore covery. Unhappily
there is in his case the uncertain element
of jungle fever lurking always in the back
ground. That fever never quite leaves a
man who has once been its victim, but
Stanley's friends are at last genuinely
hopeful.
It is the fashion now to ascribe all sorts
of novel developments to the prevalent
cycling craze, but one was hardly pre
pared to find it made answerable for
the complaints coming from the dancing
school which supplies the Paris Opera
with its stock of ballet-dancers. To" the
lay mind it might even occur that severe
pedal practice ought to raise the muscular

standard of ballet students, but it seems
that this advantage, if it De one, is more
than balanced by other effects of the
wheel. The masters declare that the
girls who have machines are defiant of
discipline and will no longer work regu
larly at the classes or submit to correction,
and reproof when necessary. They have
grown both idle and impudent, with the
result that it is going to be necessary nezt
