Sir. I yttiia Al r liino K It. ia i
ported that the Eastern opponents to
McKinley as the Presidential stand, I
ard bearer of 1896, have formulates J
plans to place fl, 000.000 in St. JLjOui
to be used in carrying the convention
tor an jLastern man.
This monev as the storv crocs, is to
be at the disposal of several shrewd
lobbyists of long experience, who are
said to entertain bright hopes of being
able to capture a number of Southern
ana Western delegates, as well as
Eastern men. .
Chauncey L Filley, who has lately
been exercising in nis mathematical
gymnasium, declares that McKinley's
nomination on the first ballot is an
absolute impossibility. Mr. Filley
savs: .
JThe roll of States for nominations
will be called, and every State that
has a favorite son will respond. It
will cast the votes it structed for him.
and all the powers and resources of
the McKinley managers cannot pre
vent it. Enough votes will thus be
withheld from the , Ohioan .to cause
the taking of at least one more bal
lot before he is the nominee. .
"There will be no suspension of the
rules to stampede the convention to
McKinley on the first ballot. That
will oe tried, but it will tail."
' I am as loyal to McKmley as any
body is, and the entire vote . of Mis
souri will be cast on the first ballot.
but the time has come for somebody
to tell the plain truth, and I have
done it in the statement that more
than one ballot will be required to j
make McKinley the standard-bearer. "
J udge A. U. Thompson, of f orta-
moutb. O.. a prouounced McKinlev-
ite, is inclined to dispute filley s as-'
sertions. and declares the latter no
friend of McKinley, if he authorizes
such a statement to be issued broad
cast. - ' " .-
Judge Thompson gave to the United
.Tress ; tonight a list of 506 delegates
instructed and pledged to McKinley.
the statements omit 106 McKinley
delegates whose seats are. contested.
The surprise of the day was the ar
rival of Hon. J. G. Long, of Sfc Au
gustine, Fla . . who represents bis
State on the national committee.
Retrardiner the alleeed scheme of
Thomas C. Piatt, to capture the na
tional committee meeting and un
horse the McKinley delegates, whose
seats are contested. Judge Long said
he had no fears that rlatt could ac
complish any such revolutionary
action. Since his arrival, Mr. Long
says, he has received definite infor
mation that no formal meeting of the
executive committee will be held be
fore next Wednesday.
The lists of contests are being pre-1
pared for the credential committee
and there will be more leaders todis-1
cuss them than the committee may
hear. Those attracting the most at
tention are in Texas, South Carolina,
Georgia, Mississippi and Delaware
delegations. -
All tho seats are contested in Flor
ida, all but two in Texas, three in
Georgia, all in Mississippi, : Arizona
and Deleware, two in ; Pennsylvania
and six in JNew Yorfc, r
In -a reoly to a query from the St.
Louis Chronicle, Saturday afternoon,
Thomas U. Flatt wires as follows:
I shall leave .forSt. Louis Wed
nesday of next week. 1 have had no
other intention as to tibue of leaving
New York. I shall do every t hmg
fair and honorable to aid - in seating
delegates." -
In a signed statement to the United
Press Saturday. Perry S. Heath of
Ohio, says a New York dispatch
printer here indicates that he has
been quoted as saying that ex Senator
T. C. rlatt is engaged in some sort
of conspiracy to have recognized
anti-McKinley contestants, "if they
can show the slightest claim for their
seats." -
Mr. Heath denies the use of the
word "conspiracy" in connection
with Mr. Piatt,
"He had a perfect right to do what
he is doing," says Mr. Heath; "so far
as I know nothing he may have in
contemplation that is illegitimate, I
regard : nim as a sound Republican
and a man of honor. The friends of
Gov. McKinley are not attacking ex-
Senator Piatt or questioning his
motives." -

PURCELL 6 DUDLEY,
THE LEADING DRUGGISTS.
A s eciil cable dispatch to the
New York Herald from Habana,
dated Sunday, says:
Captain-General Weyler called
personally upon Consul -General Lee
last, night. The Hab-m t's news-
Eapers regard the London Times
anquet to Comul-General Lee here
as highly significant The banquet
is the chief topic of conversation in
the clubs and hotels tod ly. :
Consul-General Lee today visited
the Habana'sfortre-s and talked with
the imprisoned American, He found
Julio Sanguily comfortable. Laborde
was ilL The Consul-General consid
ers the quarters occupied by Laborde
and others of the Competitor's screw I
unhealthy, and purposes to call at J
the palace to-morrow and astc the
Captain-General to order their trans
fer. The Philadelphia Press prints the
following special from W.. W. Gay,
at Habana, under the date of Sun
day last: - .
A morning newspaper prints an in
terview with Consul-General Lee on
tbe subject of his mission, in which
General Lee is quoted as saying thnt
he came to inform himself on th
problem presented in Cuba, and
would. report to Washington with
strict imparthlity and justice. The
reason why he was selected were first,
his great friendship with Cleveland,
with' whom he is identified in ideas
and sentiments; and second, having
commanded General li. E. Lea's i
cavary and been accustomed to re
connoitre, he better than anybody
else is able to understand the kind
of war the insurgents" are waging.; j
Continuing, he said; I Know wm
that public opinion attributes to me
a special mission and gives extraor-1
dinary importance to my consular
work and tne very tact imposes upon ,
me great reser ve. You may be sure
that my desire is for the welfare of
loe uniieu Obaces ana opsin sou ior
the maintenance of the friendly rela
tions existing between them.
Those who believe that part ot the
American Deon'e favor recognition of
the belligerency of the insurgents be
cause of hostility to Spain or friend
ship to the insurgents are mistaken.
TheV ask it because they believe that
the interests of Americans would thus
be .assured and because with belliger
ency recozniz the insurgents could
not destroy the inland as tney are
now doing. I, as consul, would be
the firsfi one to protest against law
lessness. " '
It would be a glorious thmg for
my eMvernment and give it immense
satisfaction to -..be able, m a cordial
and friendly way, to restore pe ice to
Cuba, and so avert destruction or tnis
island, so rich and so oeautaui, to
wbichwe are united by such great
interests. But thu affair is so den
cate that I beg you not to question
me on tne suDiecc i can assure y ju
that the relations between Spain and
the United States are very coroiaL
The interviewer asked General Lee:
"Is it true that you intend to have
communication with the insurgents?"
General Lee smiled, and said: I
don t know yet."
