It pronilacs to be a memorable con- ventlon for the prohlbltlonists , and bids fair to wreck the Party. Aa yet no move liaa been made by any of the contending factions for a compre- misc. Iach faction acorns irnsesaehI by an undying confidence In Its ability to worst Its OpPOflefltS and , scoffs at the Idea of making terms. Thor were three caucuses today. One was held by the Women , who decided that unless a aufTrage plank were Inserted In the Platform they would leave the party. Then the free sliver wing can- cusaeI and ilecinred their leader should run IIion a "broad gauge" platform or flono at all , and , finally , the single lastie Crowd canto together and announced that neither free silver , woman suffrage , nor anything else bitt prohibition should be mentioned In tito platform. The broad gauge or free silver people have been bitterly upbraidlng samuel fickle for what they term his "traitorous conduct. " lie is national chaIrman and a 1elegato from MIchigan and Is out for a gold standard - ard In money affairs. Ex.Governor St. John and tlio other leaders of the broad gauge wing have oIenly acctised Mr. Dickie of violating the Instructions of his People , In reply to these accusations Mr. fickle said ex.aovetnor St. John and his frea sliver clique vere guilty of uttering untruths. lie justified his action In advocating a gold standard by the statement that ho had Iii- formed the Michigan convention when It Instructed him by a majority of 100 for free silver that he diii not intonti to abide by such lntttrticttons and ntked that another - other be selected to take lila Place.

The leading candidates for the presidential I nomination have made publIc declarations 'I where stand matters. , ae to they on money Joshua Levering , after announcing his ad- T herency to a gold standard , said : II the convention sees lit to adopt a broad gauge platform , I cannot assent to the use of my name. Neither could I be a candidate in case the party saw fit to place In charge of the coming campaign officials who enter- tam views opposedta my own on these matters of Issue. " Rev.

It was ( leCiled ( at the caucus of the free sliver delegates to support 0.V. . Stewart - art of Bilnots for Permanent chairman of the convention , Rev. Dr. Charles ii , Bent- Icy of Nebraska for lresidont and J. 11. Southgato of South Carolina for vice pres- (1otit , During the progress of the caucus ,4 the geM standard faction was severely do- ; floulleetI and several of the speakel8 had Sofia harsh things to say regarding Chairman - man fickle. At a meeting of the central commltte of the national proilitition party tcniglit , A. A. Stevens , a narrow gauge man , was ac- iectetl as teniporory chairman of the national ; 1 convention tomorrow.

There was a largely attended meeting of the Omaha Union Veterans' flepublican league at clarflelil ball last night , at which matters political occupied most of the oven- lag. After receiving the report of the corn- mittee on employment the league went Into - to executive srtosion to recolvo the report of the executive committee , which was hnatnly dat'oted tO the iscusslOn of Political matters. The report stated the fact that W. Broatch batl on all occat'lons refused to do justice to the old soldler. Ito had ro- fucod to give them employment In munlctpal offices and had even turned out old veterans to make room for men with a political pull , Therefore , they recommended that the veter- ant all go to the brimarles nd set the eeal oftielr disapproval on his ambition to be g6&nor of tlio state. The enmmlttea then aubmittod a oat of reolutlon& , endorsing the candidacy of .Iack MacCoIl , A. S. Churchill and L. fi. llalch. Captain If. E , Palmer was opposed to endorsing Mr. MoQColl , for the reason that he bt'Ileyel It. would do liins mere injury than good. Ito was againot liroatch and ho knew that it WS the same way with the over- whoimlug sentiment of the league , lInt they could wrrk just as effectively at the polls without adopting resolutions and It was a foregone coitcitislon that the veterans would all tb everythIng in their power to aid Corn- rades ilalch and Churchill. Johnatha0 Edwards took the floor to to- mark that Ito sas for I3roatch. lie was for hint because of his achievement lact fall in beating the meat powerful combination that had ever been organized in Douglas cotinty. John Butler replied to Edwards. lie i'aid that the backbone of the iowerfui combtna- tiOn referred to had consisted of fi. hose. water anti that to his personal knowledge llroatch lied sent W. J. Connell to offer ltosewater everything ho could ak if ho would support him in lis : present ambition. Ilutler then proceeded to pass erne scathing crIticiam on lircatch's record and specified various instances in which he had turnel dowit old aoIdler because they did not Iiavc a political pull. Speeches were niade by half a dozen other comrades. They were nlmoxt unanimous In condemning l3roatch , but it 'as urged that It was unwire to endorse MacCoIl when there wore threO candidates for the omce of governor ornor besklc.i llrcatch , vlio were veterans. It was urged that It vouId be iiitwlso to endorse - dorse any one at this time and after t'oine further tllsciiislon It was unanimously re- rolved that no action should be taken.

The evening seselon was devoted to a further consideration - ation of the report of tim committee on con- stittitlon. Tlto conference opened promptly on tinlo with Bishop Ninde in the chair. Robert IorIies conducted the devotional cx- ercises and after several minor reports ltntl been received the boolc committce iiiado its report. Tim chief item of interest in the report was the creatIon of. the Voice book editor. At present Editors Vohly of New York and Moore of Cincinnati act iii this capacity , but the committee deci&leth that the work should be taken out of their hands awl Itlaced in thio haittis of one man. Tlto conference did not take kindly to tile propcsltloit and for an hour it was discussed pro and con. George C. Sturgls made the report for the Ilook concern and defended it against the objec- ( ions of the opposition. After the reading of the book committee report Dr. Lanahatt arose and opposed it by saying that he thought a careful examitta- lion of the records will show that the conference - feronco had about one offlcer for every olovoti or tw'elve ( lohegatea. lie was fol- iowed byV. .

A motion to lay on the table was next made , but was lost , anti D. Miller took the floor , wltlie another - other delegate tried to move the previous question , and proceeded to speak in favor at It. After extended debate the report was adopted. The coniercitce spent the next half hour debating witother or not. a session sltould. be held this evening in spite of the tern- porance anniversary. Frequent tligltts of oratory and a parliamentary tangle was tIme result and then a recass was taken Without anything definite being decided. BISHOPS ARh CONSECItA.TED.

" which was dIrectel to be roadn th0 various societies. and of a provision for the collection of Chris- tlau Eideayor statIstics , Provision was also made for a committee of fire to reort on tile hirotherhootl of St. Andrew and Philip , anti on Boys' brigades. The discuralon of the renort on 1101110 missions show that. the asemnbly was on the ioiltt of an outbrealc on the subject of a now Presbyterian building in New York , The action finally taken has heca variously interpreted. It contemplated the inaugurati n of syitodleal sustentat on of th mission work within the bounds of each eynodand some oLLhie members of tlto assembly - sembly hare exprerned themselves as be- Ilovltig this to be the first step toward tllo dislntegratiott of the board of home mis- sleri , The resolutions provdb for closer Presbyterian imtspoctlon of requisitions on the mission board , for a movement toward aelf- support within each prc.sbytery anti synod , and for a committee of nine to advise with the board as to retrenchmneitt. the causes of the present debt anti improved methods of retrenchment , DISPUTE OVEfi TIlE MINUTES. Tile opening of the semion today was characterized by a struggle over the approval of minutes , These showed that tile resolutions in regard to the I'resbyterian house in New York wore referred to the finance colnlnltteo and tjiado an exclusive order for this morning. Eider McDougall contended that the record was wrong. All 1110 clerIcs united in maintaining its correctness - ness attd tile latter view prevailed. Tile order was subject to an understanding that in case the resolutions called for serious discussion that they should go over. Elder McIougall moved that they be referred to the joint comnlnittee on horne and foreign missions and that their report. be made a special order for Thursday afternoon. The assembly gave unaltirnous consent to tlil course. The committee on bills anti overtures reported - ported papers from the prcbyteries of New Yorlc and Long Island , stating their intention to exercise their constitutional rights in the reception and license of theological students , These papera were called forth by the In- junctica tilaced on the presbytery of New York a year ago against receiving the atu- dents of Union seminary. The papers were referred .to the judicial committee. The regular order was then taken up be- lug the report on home missions. The present - ent debt was almost $300,000 , receipts amounted to 729,433 and expenditures rescltotl $858,985. From the retinion fund receipts reached $ I91.230. The cost. of administration aggregated $81,922. Under the board is a total of 1,544 ministers1,830 chturches and a membership of 100,000. During the year 9,179 now menibers have been added. The report of the committee made recommends- tions as to the methods of administration anI , provld d for a committee of. nlno to In- tjglktd . ; ie , iff irs of , the boid in order to secure improved efficiency and a possible retrenchrn eat. During the discussion of the report the platform was occupied by the home boarj. Secretary McMihlan showed that the debt of the board had been reduced by $106,000 in spite of the reduction of $129,000 in receipta and an interest charge of $13,000. With an Lcomo equal to that of 1802 he said the board would extinguish its debt in less than two S years. _ Dr. John Hall spoke in commendation of the members and officers of the board , Elder McDougall followed in a long epeech in which ho said that he was there ta show by his vote whether ho approvei of the math- Dds of those wito have administered the funds Df the board , lie began to discuss the ro- lources ot the board and was understood to bo talking on the investment of funds In the Presbyterian btmilding when he was cabled to ) rdor by Dr. Davies of Nw , York on the ; roanfl that he was tranegrensing the agree- nent. made . .earlier iii tile day , in which this matter was deferred to Thursday after- loon. lie was followed by Dr. James S. Ramsey of New Yorlc , a clerical member of he board , Eider Franklin L. Sheppard of Philadelphia and several 'others. Just before the adjournment the veto on resolutions of the committee was taken. At the opening of the afternoon session resolutions favorIng international arbltra- Lion were adopted. . AID FOIl COLLEGES. The report of the board of atd for colleges was firSt considered.

The board Itold mortgages of $173,388 on property val- ied at $942,429 , The subject of young people's societies at- Iracted most interest. The main speech of ho sestsion was made by Dr. George Ii. Stow- , trt of harrisburg. Ho contended that the iocletles desired ecclesiastical recogntion in ho s'ense of a right to exist in the church tad to manage their own affairs , subject ) niy to the church 'session. "The statelnont If relations , " he characterized as admirable , Mit he oppool the continuance of the coin- nitteo with carte blanche powers , which it LSkad for. Iii considering the report , the aombly got nto a wrangle , Elder Sheppard of Phila- ieipiiia finally moved to strike out the soc- ion under consideration and It was carried vith applause. This clause provided for a lan to unite the PresbyterIan aocletks. The ollowing paragraphs were then elIminated , ne .hy one , except that a substitute was tlopted for one of them. It urged the lay- lty of societies to the sessions of the hurches and the transmission of benevolent ontributions tllrouglt the church board , Only wo clauses of the report wore retained- lOSO relating to the appomntiqent of a corn- tittee to cohaider the brotherhood of Andrew ad Philip and the boys' brigades.
