IN NATIONAL CONVENTION.

St. Louis, June 16. As ft result of
muchtelegraphicnegotiationsbetween
St. Louis and Albany it is definitely
stated on what ia believed to be good
authority that Governor Morton bas
finally yielded to the solicitations of
friends and agreed to accept the rice
presidency, and the despite the split
in the New, York, delegation: he is
being vigorously pushed. Other can
dldates prominent today are Hastings,'
of Pennsylvania, Hobart, of New
Jersey and Evans of Tennessee. The
canvas of delegates shows that five
hundred and forty-three have no
choice; the others are scattered be
tween fifteen candidates. ?
A hot sun came out of the early
miet, after which a brisk, refreshing
breeze early this morning, provided
more scenes characteristic of a
national convention than any having
yet been seen. Trains arriving trom
all sections of the country from five
o'clock until noon brought a big
contingent of visitors to the conven
tion. -
Warner Miller who has bf en mak
ing a stiff fight for gold today says
he will not stick for the word gold in
the platform and has joined the
straddlers. U. S. Grant, Jr. a mem
bfT of the California delegation
makes the announcement that-his
brother Col. Fred Grant, cf New

Presidentcy. Reed's friends don't

states for the gold standard, nine for

At 12 o'clock th rvmrprHnn Kail
is filling slowly. A s-re of delegates
are in their seats. A few scattering
seats in the gallery are occupied.
The aisles are crowded. There ap"
pears considerable difficulty in find
ing proper seats in the convention
hall.. , ';;-:
The text of the financial plank of
the platform was agre?id to at a con
ference of the leaders just befote the
con vehtion nut, as follows:
"The Republican party is unre
sei vedly for sound money. It caused
the enactment of the 1 iw providing
for the resumption of specie pay
ments in 187& Since then every
dollar has been as good as gold. -' We
are unaltably opposed to every meas
ure calculated to debase our currency
or impair the credit of the country.
We are therefore opposed to the free
coinage of silver except by interna
tional agreement; aud "until Such
agreement is obtained the existing
gold standard must be preserved.
"All oursilverand paper money
now in circulation as currency must
be maintained at a parity with gold
and we favor all measures to main
tain enviolably the obligations of the
United States; and all our money,
whether gold or paper, at the present
standard the standard of the most
enlightened nations of the earth." :
. About half of the delegates were
in their seats shortly after noonj
Tom Piatt was given the first ap
plause.: Senator Teller has an aisle
seat in the fourth row from the
front. Piatt's seat is in the aisle to
the left of HnAabcp MiHoi. TJlioo

Cornelius Vanderbilt,' Jr, i to
marry Mis Grace Wilson. The
wedding will take place in tha near
future- - '.."'. ' -. - '
The wedding will," doubtle,s, be
the most notable of the season; Mr.
Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jr., is the
eldest living son of -Mr- and Mrs.
Cornelius .Vanderbilt,- and presumably-the
heir to the bulk of his
father's fortune. .
His attentions to Misi Wilsin for
the past year have been subject of
society talk. The young persons
were together much at Newport last
summer, and in the autuma went
abroad. Miss Wilson accompanied
both ber sister and brother in law,
Mr. and Mrs. Ogden Goelet, who
sailel a month after the departure of
young Vanderbilt. ;Itis unders-sood
that they became engaged' during
this stay abroad
Miss Wilson is a beiuty of the
blonde tvpe. Her face h oval, with
regular features, and her complexion
is beautiful. Sh is somewhat above
medium h ight and has a su oerb
figure. -She dresses finely and in
good taste. "
l Her wedding gown, it is sa:d, is
completed, and, with ; the entire
trousseau, was made last -spring in
Paris Mr. and Mrs. Goeletaod Jliss
Wilson have but verv recently rh
turned to town, aud were only
shortly preceded by youn Vander
bilt. The latter bers a family likeness
to his father. He is tall, has gray
eyes, and very d irk hair. He enjoys
yachting, and is quite a student. His
father, it is said, told a friend that
Cornelius, Jr., would sometime -be
worth $4,000,000.
- Miss Wilson's father is also one of
the multi-milltonait es of the City, but
he made every cent of his furtune
himself. His eldest son, Marshall
Orme Wilson, married Miss Caroline
Ast jt, a sister of John Jacob Astor.
No one doubts that young Vander
bilt and Miss Wilson are making a
love match. Their present joy is so
written on their faces. But there
has been, it is said, opposition to the
mtch on the part of Vanderbilt's
parents, owing to " the fact that Miss
Wilson was the elder of the two.
But since the return of their son
from Europa they, withdrew all ob
jections and are taking an active
part in the arrangements for the
wedding.
There will a great gathering of
millionaires at this wedding. All of
the Vacderbilt famity and its con
nections the entire Goelet and Gerry
families, the many Astors, will all
turn out in force.
