The sixth ( ahnuarconvention of the Confederate Veterans met this morning in the vast and gaily-decorated auditorium erected for the purpose at the Jixposttion grounds in this cityr Intermingled with the Confederate colors and battle flags are national flags, and just above the presiding! officer's seat are two large star-spangled banners.). Around the gal leries are the coats-ol-arms Of all the late Confederate States. Just above, on an-, other tier, are banners on which are in scribed the names of all the famous bat tles of the war, and intermixed with these are laree star-shaped designs bear ing the names of all the famous Confed erate Generals. . The auditorium, which can eat over ten thousand people, j was comfortably filled and presented a handsome appear ance when at 11 o'clock the arrival of Gen. John B. Gordon, Commander-in-Chiefflf the Confederate Veterans, was greeted by cheers, and the band played "Dixie." He was rthen presented with a gavel, which Gen. Gordon announced was made from a tree cut on the battlefield of Chicamauga. He opened the con vention by introducing Chaplain J. W. Jones, of the Confederate veterans, who made an eloquent, impressive prayer, which was followed by the band play ing "Nearer My God to Thee." On the stand were seated all the dig nitaries, among them" Gov. O'Ferrall, Mrs. Gen. George E. Pickett, now cf Washington;.' Mayor Taylor, of Rich mond; Gen. Peyton Wise, G.en. Stephen D. Lee, Mrs, Gen. Gordon and daughter, ex Minister jo. Spain J. L. M. Curry, Gen. French and numerous others. : At the conclusion of the prayer, Gen. Gordon proceeded to introduce Gov. O'Ferrair, who was on the programme to welcome the veterans to Richmond; but that gentleman bad barely begun to speak when a cheer broke forth from the far end of the auditorium and the venerable form of that gallant old soldier, Gen. Wade Hampton, was seen limping up towards the stana. ttis progress through the audience was greeted by the wildest cheers, and when at last he reached the stand. Gen. Gor don announced him as the ''brave commander-in-chief of . the Confederate cavalry,' which called forth another round of cheers and "rebel yells.!' Order Jieing restored. Governor O'Ferrall was reintroduced, and he welcomed; the veterans to Virginia. The Governor said : "Veterans and comrades You were enlisted in these bands who i wrqte their names in glory's skies and carved them deep in the Tem ple of Fame; who made the cause of the South, so imperishable and the renown of her armies sd fadeless. You endured hardships which no human imagination could picture and no mortal tongue could describe. Your exploits equalled these of the heroic age in Grecian le gends, and your devotion was not sur-. passed by Leonidas and his three hun dred at Thermopylae In the path of duty no danger daunted you, no suffer ing subdued you. no force appalled you, and no defeats disheartened you. True as the dial to the sun, firm as the rock on the mountain . crest, .resolute as the lion aroused in his lair, with unblanched cheeks and steady nerve, you obeyed every command; however rained the mis siles oi death. The greater the peril, lhe stifier were your sinews; the fiercer the battle, the hotter was your blood. No Grecian phalanx, no Roman legion, were ever adorned with badges more honorable than those you wear upon your manly breasts. It was neither con quest nor power ior which you fought; it was in Defence of home-, and country. The rights for which the founders of this Republic struck were no more sacred to them than the rights for which you struck were dear to you. .If you were rebels. So were the fathers of constitu tional liberty of a hundred and twenty years ago, - If you fought to sever your connection with a union whose bonds were galling, so did the men now im mortalized in song and story when they snapped the cord, of- British allegiance in 1776. If you had within you a spirit that would not submit tamely to wrong and dared to assert itself !m the front of grim:visaged Might, it came to -you by ancestral inheritance; or if foreign born, you imbibed it ' from J the air yoii breathed." Pointing to the:atue of Lee, he said: "Just in front of us, astride his noble war steed, is the great captain of the Nine teenth century, unsurpassed in legend or traditioa. How thankful are we that human hand has been gifted with the skill to convert inanimate matter into the living form of him, who, with Wash ington, shall ride 'immortal And shall ride abreast of time; " Shall light up stately history And blaze in epic rhyme, Both patriots, both Southerners; True Both rebels, both sublime. "When the work, which will be begun so soon, shall be completed; the world will behold a monument erected to an unsceptred ruler by the free will of fering of the: scattered remains of his armies and descendants of his dead sol diers; by the nigh and the humble, the rich and the poor. Not a block will be laid by taxation, not a stone will be laid ty Government donation." There were numerous interruptions by the arrival of delegates and camps who were conducted to theA appointed seats, but the Governor .was warmlv an- plauded throughout his' entire speech, which was an eloquent tribute to the bravery and fortitude of the Confeder ate soldiers. He askSd, "Am I not voicing your sentiments, comrades ?" and was followed by a rousing cheer. Gov. O'Ferrall was followed by Mayor Richard Taylor, who as the head of the municipal government, welcomed the veterans once more to the historic city of Richmond. - ' ' At the conclusion of the Mayor's ad dress. Gen. Peyton Wise, chairman of the local Reunion Committee, formally turned over the ball to the convention and then the regular proceedings began, i The city is crowded as never before since the close of the war with veterans, representatives of every State North, 4-South, East and West, and the streets are almost impassible. Banners and badges from every Southern State are visible everywhere, and the scene in the auditorium exceeded in brilliancy and enthusiasm the recent National Repub lican Convention at St. Louis. As soon as the taoplause on the Con clusion of Gov. O'Ferrall's address had subsided to-day. Gen. Gordon intro duced Gen. Simon Bolivar Buckner, of Kentucky, who was warmly greeted by the veterans. Gen. Gordon styled him the . ' Eagle of the Blue Grass State." Gen. Buckner made a thrilling Sonthern speech, which. carried the convention by storm. Whtn he had taken' his seat and the cheering for the Kentucky statesman had ceased. Mayor Taylor, of Richmond, was presented to the assem bled veterans by the chairman. His Honor, who has a commanding presence and excellent lung power, welcomed the veterans to the hearts and homes of the people of Richmond. General Gordon introduced Hon. T. Taylor Ellyson, chairman of the Davis Monument Association, who announced that all who wore the gray and women who sympathized with the Lost Cause would be welcome at the reception to Mrs. Jefferson Davis at the Confederate museum to-night. The Committee on Credentials- was announced ty a secretary. ..; -, -;! General Stephen D. Lee.then read the report of the History Committee, which set forth that great injustice had been done to the South by partisan histories and recommended' Jhat measures be adopted Ao have a correct and trust worthy fjistory of the Confederate side of the late war published. Somebody moved the postponement of the reading of the report, whereupon Gen. Jackson, of Tennessee, made a strong appeal that tne reading be heard. Another veteran in the audience renewed the motion to postpone nntil to-morrow and quite a discussion ensued. Still another appeal for the reading was made and Gen Gor don explained that this was the most im portant matter that would bs brought before the convention in the fact that It made plain the actual necessity of doing justice to the memories of Le. of lack son, of Davis and of all the Southern 'leaders. The reading was p-pceeded with an J the report advocated a separate history lor each-Stare and the compilar tion of all these by a competent board :at the University of the South and in voked the aid and assistance of all the Southern universities and historical so cieties to this end.. The report further referred to the several other reports made at previous Confederate reunions on this subject and laid particular stress on the inaccurate school histories now in use throughout the coun try.. It recommended that the' history of .the South be properly, truthfully and thoroughly written lor the benefit of the growing youth of the South and for the vindication of its honored dead. It wound up with the recommendation that each State Legis lature make a donatton and establish a rhalr iA American historv and that all colleges aid in perfecting the needed' history. The historical report was, on motion of Gen. Jackson, of Tennessee, unanimously adopted and the commit tee was i thanked for its labors. The committee was further authorized to carry, out the objects Of the report by the appointment ot sub-committees. ' ' ' On motion of General Peyton Wise, of Virginia, an assistant jserge ant at arms from each State was appointed, to report to the general sergeant-at-arms of the convention to-morrow, to preserve order., - -' . An Oklahoma veteran stated that the Territory had a perfect organization of veterans, and a sponsor present. . A re presentative irom Oklahoma was then placed on the various, committees. All further business was then postponed un til the Committee on Ctedentials was ready to report, and on motion the con vention adjourned until 10 o'clock to morrow morning. " . The reception tendered Mis Jefferson Davis to-night at the Confederate Museum, the former White House of the Confederacy, was an overwhelming affair. It was a success as far as the crowd of ladies and their escorts were concerned, , but a failure as to manage , ment.' One-fourth of the people who wished to pay their respects to Mrs. Davis and her daughter, Mrs. Hayes, could not gain -admission to the build in sr. Miss Winnie Davis was detained jn New York by a sprained ankle. Mrs. Davis bowed her acknowledgements from a front window to the crowd, and Mrs. Hayes and her little son were similarly engaged from a rear window of the house. , At this hour, 11 p. m., there is still a large crowd vainly endeavoring to gain admittance. Corporal Tanner, who is an honorary member of R. E. Lee Confederate Camp, and Ma j k Halleck, his companion, who are here, were tendered a right royal re ception by the cam; to-night, and the two Union veterans "are the lions of the hour. It is estimated there are 30.600 vis itors in the city to night. The Grand Camp of Sons of Confed erate Veterans was organized to night at a meeting held at the auditorium of repreientatives of the camps in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Geor gia and Alabama. J. E. B Smart, son of the well-known Virginia cavalry leader, presided. ,A constitution and by-laws aporoved by the United Con federate Neterans, will ,be adopted to morrow. . . SOUTH'o BATTLE ABBEY. Another Proposition from Mr. Cnat. Broad way Bonis Iild Beicr the Committee. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Richmond, Va., June 30. The Butle Abbey of the South Committee held an important meeting at the Capitol to-day, at which a charter for a Confederate memorial association to take charge of the Battle Abbey was discussed. Col. J. C. Craven, of Springfield, Missouri,' said that State would do well by the Battle Abbey, and hoped to secure its location there. , Gen. Mcintosh offered a resolution discharging the present Committee from the further consideration of the matter and that it be succeeded b tiustees to be selected by , each division of the United Confederate Veterans, who shall be authorized to obtain a charter oi in corporation of the Confederate Memo rial Association. 'x Col. A. B. Dickenson, who represents Mr. Chas. Broadway Rouss, of New York, then read a correspondence with that gentleman which developed a new plan on the part of Mn-Rouss, who had previously offered a conditional dona tion of $100,000 for a battle abbey of the South.. Mr. Rouss -now proposes to contribute 8500,000 for the purpose, pro vided the South raised an equal amount and that the abbey be located in tne city of Washington. This puts quite a new as pect on the Battle Abbey movement, though Mr. Rouss leaves the matter en tirely with the association. Gen. Mc intosh's resolution was then so amended that the present committee would not go out of existence until the trustees were appointed. Report will be rnade to the convention to morrow.

It is believed' in manufacturing circles to-day;' that treasurers, representing 1,700,000 spin dles, have agreed to curtail production during four weeks la the next two months. Nothing definite can be given out by Messrs. Rounseville and Baker until the Arkwrigbt Club meet ing . in Boston next Thursday. The manufacturers who did not sign lasf week are slow at signing this week. Several treasurers who are awaiting the action of their beards of directors have not yet entered into the agreement.. A few others are still waiting till they are sure there will be no mills in the regular line of print cloth manufacturing left out. There are certain manufacturers who will not sign "till the last minute, though it is practically assured that they will eventually s gn. Although a large number, of mills are still outside of the agreement, propositions are being made by a msjority of them to shut down next Friday for a week or more. There is yet no general plan for curtailment and in some cases the indi vidual manufacturers have not definitely decided whether they will shut down on alternate weeks or for the fall period ef four weeks at one time; , ; j A majority of the manufacturers appear to favor the plan of shutting down alter nate weeks.

A SCORCHING EDITORIAL FROM A GOLD .STANDARD PAPER. z The Frr j Mted Bald ot Whitney and the -r Backers Democrats Must 8tnd (or .. the StchA.of the M-j trlty t j Rale. ... The following is from the Washington Post, which, is Opposed to free silver but has opinions it is not afraid to express: "It appears that Mr. Whitney is to have powerful co-operation at Chicago. The banks, the; bankers, the various commercial exchanges all over the country are arranging to send delega tions to the convention city. They are sending them bhundieds. The idea is to make' an overwhelming display of strength and ' influence may we add, money ? Two hundred and fifty busi ness men are going from the Merchants' Exchange of St. Louis alone, and when I we and the contingents frcm New York and the other great business and finan cial centers one is at no loss to foresee that the gathering will be like unto an Assyrian host. Certainly the Impor tance and the interest attaching to the Democratic Convention will far exceed the measure of ! the St. Louis event, enormous though that may have bsen. "What we fail to perceive, however, is the exact meaning of this great demon stration. Wrlat do these apostles of the gold standard expect to accomplish by going : to Chicago in such numbers? They can hardly intend to settle the controversy by means of a pitched bat tle with the silver delegates, neither can they possibly harbor the idea of buying them in open market to betray the peo ple who have commissioned and In structed them. Are they going to pa rade the streets so as to impress the sil ver men with their great strength? They will be overlooked, lost, - absorbed in Chicago's tremendous population. Is it necessary to take; 5,000 gold men to the convention . to argue with 'five or six hundred delegates ? A dozen ! fluent speakers would do 4s well. What does this vast outpouring of capital and its representatives mean, anyhow? -We have said before, and it seems a good time to repeat, that there must be no sharp practice, no intimidation, no cajolery and deceit and Corrupt ex pedient at Chicago this year The ma j jrity must rule in that convention or the Democratic patty will die in everlasting infamy and shame.' We'can. understand that the capitalists would contemplate such a result with cheerful equanimity if thereby they could carry the point they hold above all others. Parties are nothing to them beyond the point at which parties may be used to serve their ends. They would willingly destroy the Democratic organization if that were Indispensable to the triumph of the single standard. They are going to Chicago with a pur pose in which the honor or dishonor of that organization cuts no figure what soever. Hence we say again that Demo crats who love their party and - hold its fair fame, its welfare and its perpetuity in loyal devotion and esteem,- must see to it that the party's traditions are kept inviolate. They, must stand together asainst all influences, however potent and insidious, tor i the right of the ma jor, ty to rule. Upon no other basis can. they hope to win. I In no other manner can they escape disgrace." . " ICHICAGO CONVENTION. Namei Suggested for Temporary Offloars .Senator labam O. Harrlas iaay be Ptrma nent Chairman Leaders ot the.Sllver Forces Prepiiiog f ir the Fray. By Telegraph to the Montfng Star. Chicago, June 30 The National Democratic Committee will meet Mon day to select the ; temporary officers of the convention. Among the names sug gested for the temporary chairmanship are those of Senators Hill, of New York; Vilas, of Wisconsin; Gray, ot Delaware, and Hugh C. Wallace, of Washington. Senator J orris said yesterday that he, thought the silver men would accept the recommendation that Sedaior Hill bs made temporary chairman of the con vention. "I believe Senator Hill is a fair man," Mr. Jones said, "and I would have absolute-confidence in bis ability, j jstice and impartiality as a presiding officer. If he issslected. I think; there will be no at tempt by the convention to take this ap pointment out of the hands of the Na tional Committee." 7 It is thought that Senator Isham G. Harris will be permanent chairman. A week in advance of the day set for the opening of the - Democratic National Convention the leaders of the silver ele ment have donned their armor and girded themselves for the coming fray. To day the Sherman House, where the white metal headquarters have been lo cated, resounded with shouts and yells of its advocates resplendent in 16 to 1 badges, buttons and , other insignia, while its register bore more dis tinguished names than have been inscribed in the books cf the hostelry for a quarter of a century. So farlaone.of the prominent advocates of the gold standard have put in an ap pearance,, and consequently the silver people! have undisputed possession of the field. From to-morrow, 'however, the former will begin to be in evidence, and from then on every day will, witness some new phase ot a battle between the majority and the earnest, aggressive, unconquerable minority. ; V The conspicuous features of the open ing of the war to day were the confer ence between, the Bimetallic Demo cratic National Committee and the out Bide silver men the meeting between Gov.

For j three-quarters of an hour ending; at noon Gov ernors i Altgeld and Stone were In conference in the ante-room leading off from the private parlor occupied by toe former,: both doors being locked. The only other person present was Col. Chas. H. Jones, of St. Louis, and who was there presumably as a witness of what might be said or done. The con ference occupied nearly fifty minutes, and when the participants emerged to the corridor, they appeared to be bub bling over with' satisfaction and good nature. ! All three were approached in turn by the Southern Associated Press reporter, but, the answer was that it had been agreeo: that for the present not one word would be said concerning the object of th conference or its result.
