A SICKLY OLIVE BRANCH —♦ ITS WAVING CAUSED NO STIR AT THE DEMOCRATIC MEETING. Prominent Sllverlte* Shouted the Loudest—Matthews, English and Others Spoke Kindly. There was a diversity of views at the Democratic gathering at the Grand Hotel yesterday. The "conservatives” among the silverites were anxious to hold out the flag of truce to the gold Democrats and ask them to come back to the party, but others insisted that If they ever came back it must be to stand flatly upon the silver platform. Even such wild silver men as ex-Governor Matthews wero anxious to be "conciliatory,” but the ex-Governor is a candidate for the Senate, and due allowance must be made for the fact that he wants votes. The double room at the Grand was well filled when the conference was called to order yesterday morning with Democrats from all over the State. Chairman Martin called them to order and made a brief statement of the purpose of the gathering, to look over the ground and discuss prospects for next year. He introduced ex-Governor Matthews, who declared that the conditions were decidedly encouraging for Democratic victory next year. In his section of the State, where u few Democrats had voted with the Republicans, there was a disposition to get together again. He considered the McKinley message a splendid campaign document for Democrats, and declared that there was but one thing before the party—to show loyalty to the Chicago platform. The gold Democrats were leaders without a following, and nothing should be said or done to show any hostility towards them, but he would not bend the knee or offer overtures to them.

John G. Shanklin, of Evansville, said there never was a time when the party in Indiana was so unanimous upon the main Issue—free silver. The gold-bug faction of last year not only succeeded in electing McKinley, but cemented more closely than ever the Democratic party. Mr. Shanklin also said that there was a disposition of the party in Vanderburg county to unite, as the few gold Democrats who were there regarded themselves as having been deceived by McKinley’s promises, as it was the President’s purpose, expressed in hi3 message, to hold fast to that ignis fatuus, bimetallism by International agreement. John E. Lamb, of Terre Haute, said all the gold Democrats of Vigo county were coming back. He maintained that there should be no compromise upon the money question, but that the Chicago platform should be reindorsed and possessed as the fighting ground of next year. Judge Dyke-man, of Logansport, however, said that conditions between the two factions up there were not as agreeable as had been represented in Vanderburg and Vigo counties. There was still much bitterness, and it w’ould take a good deal more than diplomatic work to allay it. Yet he declared that the Democratic party had gained many votes since the election from the railroad men who had been misled by Vice President Brooks, of the Pennsylvania system, in promising that upon McKinley’s election the railroad shops of Logansport, which had been closed for months, would reopen with full time and full force. This, he said, has not been done, but, on the contrary, there has been a reduction not only of time, but of wages, the latter 20 per cent. B. F. Shively, who was the candidate for Governor last year and is cne of the most radical silver advocates in the State, came In at this juncture and was given an ovation. He simply made over again one of his last year’s campaign speeches and declared that the party was sure of victory if it will keep straight ahead on the silver issue. W. E. ENGLISH’S CONSERVATISM. Then up spake William E. English, leading the assault for the “conservatives.” Mr. English was for gold up to the convention, but submitted for the sake of “regularity.” He declared that he hoped he would never again be asked to vote for five Populists on the Democratic ticket. They were the enemies of the party. He Inveighed against fusion at some length, and declared that at the same time he had no use for bolters, either in New York or Indiana. Frank B.’ Burke followed Mr. English in the same line and advised conciliatory measures toward the gold Democrats. Judges Howard and McCabe both advised conciliation, but declared that the Chicago platform should not be given up. McCabe had spoken Judge James P larvin, of Covington, Ky„ wno S v,^, t /° d , Uced ’ handled Uie gold Democrats '' ithout mincing words or seeking their laH^V Q i e u. waa „ sarcaslic - bitter and even brutal. His allusions to Watterson, Bo Anar ’ Lindsay, Carlisle and Cleveland re stinging and denunciatory. He said he >.,s S‘ ad 10 meet Democrats in Indianapolis, a city that had been outraged by the Holding of the gold convention of last fall. It devolved upon Indiana Democrats to wipe out that disgrace, and he hoped it would be done. He asserted that the pre-eminence of free silver at 16 to 1 and determined opposition to government by injunction were the vital issues of the future. The judge’s speech was well received, notwithstanding the danger that lurked in it of bringing out reply from two or throe gentlemen whose sympathies were not with the monetary plank of the Chicago platform, but who had remained loyai to the partv; but sober second thought kept them quiet, and the harmony of the meeting was Undisturbed. He was followed by Greetle Smith, who was moderate in his position, stating that, while he was a Democrat, he was entitled to his individual views, but those views he was always ready to yield to the majority. This has enabled him at any time to be in a position to challenge any one as being a better Democrat than he is. John Overmyer, of Jennings county, made a straight silver harangue. He said that the day of the East to rule the great Democratic party had passed. He referred to Bryan as the presidential candidate for 1900, and this was received with cheers. Samuel M. Ralston, of Lebanon, the last year’s candidate for secretary of state, said that, while he remained loyal to free silver, there were other issues that should not be overlooked, referring particularly to government by injunction and other features of the Chicago platform. John W. Kern remarked that in that meeting it w T as not worth while to discuss what the platform should be or who should bo the presidential candidate for 1900, for they were settled. It was better to give all the attention to perfecting the organization, for the best organization would be needed to carry the State next year. He declared that had the Democrats received in 1896 what they honestly won Bryan would be President of the Nation and Shively Governor of the State of Indiana. Indiana was taken from both of them by fraud, and it was that which they would have to fight in the coming year and in 1900. The honorable John made the startling declaration that Bryan had been defrauded out of at least fifty thousand -votes in Indiana last year, and his hearers were hardly able to keep their faces straight. Then he drew very horrifying pictures of Mark Hanna, coercion, robbery and all the other stock bugaboos of the last campaign. Naturally enough, his speech ended the meeting. The committee met in the afternoon and fixed Jan. 11 as the date for the district conventions to elect new members of the committee. These conventions will be held at Princeton, Vincennes, New Albany, North Vernon, Terre Haute. Connersville, Indianapolis, Bluff ton, Frankfort, Lafayette. Peru. Fort Wayne and Plymouth. The countv primaries will be held on or before Jan. 8, and the state committee will meet for organization Jan. is. Numerous candidates for various offices were on hand yesterday, among them exGovernor Matthews, John Gilbert Shanklin, S E Morns and John W. Kern, all of whom have been "mentioned” for the shoes of Senator Turpie. For the state ticket there seemed to be a very general feeling that the “old ticket” would be nominated, including S. M. Ralston for secretary of state, Joseph T. Fanning for auditor, and J. G. McNutt for attorney general. Morgan Chandler, who was the candidate for treasurer, has since died and Hugh Doherty, of Bluffton, and Henry Stoekflk-th, of Evansville, are candidates. The crowd after the position of clerk of the Supreme Court Is a big one and includes Allen XV. Chirk, Joseph L. Reilly, S. W. Wellman

EXPENSES OF THE K.OF P. ♦ ESTIMATES SUBMITTED TO FINANCE COMMITTEE LAST NIGHT. - Entertainment to Cost Abont 935,000 —The Subcommittees to Solicit Appointed. ■ • The finance committee appointed for the Knights of Pythias encampment for next year met last night, with a large attendance. The principal feature of the evening was the presentation of estimates of the probable expenses of the encampment. General Carnahan stated that twenty thousand men would be in camp during the week, and for every man in camp there w’ould be four other visitors, making a total estimate of 100,000 visitors in town each day during the week. The Supreme Dodge will be in session two weeks,- and to this there will be four hundred delegates. Os the fund to be raised for the entertainment of the city’s guests the local lodges of the order are to contribute $3,500, the lodges of the State $14,000, and the citizens of Indianapolis the remainder of the $35,000. Mayor Taggart stated at the meeting that he thought it would be no exaggeration to say that $1,000,000 would be spent in the city during the encampment. He has already received applications for rooms at his hotel. The estimate of expenses was detailed as follows: Tents (5,000) 82,500 Prizes Water in camp Ls”" Sewerage LwO Electric lights j?}™ Reviewing stands Lj>w Preparing grounds Headquarters tents LOW Janitor and decoration of hall “W Opera house Postage for executive committee 000 Bands 400 Cleaning and repairing grounds 500 Total *29-42!j Incidentals

In the Washington specials yesterday the statement wa3 made in connection with the possibility of the Bahia consulate being given to an Indianapolis colored man, that Dr. S. A. Elbert had failed to pass the examination. This hare statement does Dr. Elbert an injustice, as any one who is familiar with the circumstances under which he took the examination is aware. He made practically no preparations whatever for the examination as to the consular regulations, the hook of which was not placed in his hands till the day before he was ordered to take the examination. Dr. Elbert feels that he did as well as any one could possiblv have done under the circumstances. He declined to post himself on the regulations and take a second examination, as lie was urged to do. as a second consideration of the whole matter led him to believe it would be unwise for him to accept. Little Boy Hurt by Trolley Car. Frank Patterson, the eight-year-old son of John Patterson, No. 1210 Yandes street, was perhaps fatally injur 'and by a trolley car yesterday. He attempted to cross Home avenue, between Columbia avenue and Yandes street. A west-bound car passed him and he ran across behind it, not apparently noticing east-bound car No. 337. He was knocked down but not run over. His injuries are internal, and their exact nature cannot be determined. The car which struck him vas in charge of Motorman Robert Welsh and Conductor James Noble. First Presbyterian Church.

PRIVATE ROW INJECTED ♦ STATE HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY MEETING RUDELY DISTURBED. - *_ J. A. Barton and a Chicago Commission Man Quarrel Over the Sale of Some Apples. S An incident not down on the programme turned up at the first session of the State Horticultural Society yesterday afternoon and caused excitement for a whiie. Joseph A. Burton, a big apple grower, of Orleans, was on the programme for an address on the failure of the apple crop last season, but Instead of talking on this subject made the sharpest kind of an attack upon Barnett & Cos., a Chicago commission house. He had shipped them a lot of apples and there had been disagreement about them. He denounced the firm and advised the members to have nothing to do with it. Mr. Barnett, the head of the firm, had got wind of Burton’s intention and was on hand to defend himself, which he did right' tartly, and the two had it back and forth In very lively fashion. Finally President Hobbs declared that both had had a hearing, and the society had certainly heard enough. Sylvester Johnson expressed great regret that the society had been made the scene of this controversy, and offered a motion, which was carried, that all. record of it be expunged from the minutes. The meeting opened at 1 o’clock with the annual address of the president, C. M. Hobbs, of Bridgeport. In the course of his address he said: "With our advancing civilization and ready communication with all parts of the world, we have added many desirable varieties of trees, plants, fruits and flowers, and with them many new and destructive insects and fungus diseases. The most dangerous pest with which we have to contend is the San Jose scale, introduced in the San Jose valley in 1870, and seventeen years later into New Jersey nurseries on infested plum trees. It lias spread to the majority of the States and 'lerritories, bringing consternation to the fruit growers and death to the orchards and shade trees. In this State the scale is found in six counties, and next year will be in many more. We must fight it to the finish, although it is yet an unconquered foe. The people must acquaint themselves as quickly as possible as to what the insect Is—they must know it at sight. This association should demand state legislation authorizing competent inspection, treatment, and. If necessary, destruction of Infected stock. There must be national legislation, too. and concerted action throughout the country if the pest is to be stamped out. Governor Mount has taken in the situation and appointed our secretary to act as state entomologist. The place is of sufficient importance to warrant the next Legislature in creating such an office.” The reports of officers were then received and referred to the auditing committee. That of the treasurer showed a balance of something over $l,lOO in the treasury. J. G. Kingsbury read a paper on horticulture in Mexico.

LOCAL COUNCIL OF WOMEN. An Unusnnlly Lurjge Attendance— Mr*. C. B. Clorlc’M Paper. The December meeting of the Local Council was held yesterday afternoon with a large attendance. The west parlor of the Propylaeum was crowded. There were reports from several of the societies, and then Mrs. Charles B. Clark read her paper on "Influence of Clubs In Civic Life,” which she read before the Indiana L T nion of Literary Clubs, held last summer in Warsaw. The paper was one of much interest in the council, which is made up of clubs. She cited what has been done by the department clubs in the way of making the city cleaner and more sanitary, and the legislation that has been accomplished. She mentioned the arbor and park ideas, pictures placed in the public schools and the local improvement that hits been made in small towns. Mrs. Clark spoke of the Civic Club of Philadelphia, which has prompted a higher social and civic order, and which acts in co-operation with the municipal authorities and the charity organizations and has been instrumental In having kindergartens and playgrounds. The speaker regards the federation of clubs as one of the most hopeful signs of the times, and estimated the value which the Local Council in this city has proved itself. Mrs. May Wright Bewail, who was elected president of the National Council at Nashville, was present and gave an account of what the councils have done in this country, and how they have spread through Europe. There is a council in Bohemia and the women of Holland nave oeganized. One of their first acts will be to suitably celebrate the coming to majority of the Queen of Holland. The women of Buda-Pesth will send a delegate to the International Council of Women hi London in July. At the business meeting preceding the literary features, a finance committee was appointed.
