Democratic Committoomon's Views
on tho Battlo Cry for 1900,
MANY ANSWERS ARE RECEIVED

That 10 to 1 He Dropped.
Chicago, Juno 13. Tho Chicago
Times Ilcralil has boon asking mem
bers of tho Democratic national com
mittee, what should bo their party's
battlo cry In 1000, whothor "Frco Sil
ver" or '"'Down with tho Trusts,'' or
both. Tho nnswors of those that have
boon received aro publlshdd to-day.
Whita only ono of tho replies of these
Damocratlo lenders, tho roprcsonta
tlvo for Maine, tho home stuto of Mr.
Hryun's running mato In 1800, says,
"drop frco silver," thoy nro all but
unanimous In giving tho trust
question a promlnonco It never
has had In tho plntform of
their own or any other party.
With ono exception, all who speak
frcoly suggost that somo other issue
will dlvldo tho stage equally with free
silver. Somo sny "militarism" or
"imperialism" will bo ono of the
prominent issues. Others a fow
frankly emphnslzn tho trust question
as a big thing. Still othars speak for
a twin battlo cry. Just ono commit
teeman Bays ilatly: "The Issues of
1800 should bo tho Issues of 1030."
Tills ono exception Is Alexander Troup
of Cincinnati.
Half a dozen of tho committeemen
aro cither non-committal or rofuso to
bo quotod. Thoy arc: George Fred
Williams, Massachusetts; 1). .!. Cam-
pau, Michigan; i. i. omnuoy, er
mont; Frunk-Campboll, New York; T.
D. O'llrlcn, Minnesota; .1. O. Dudley,
Toxas.
Tlio couiinijttccmen who say free sil
ver must have first placo in tho plat
form, although generously combined
with tho questions of trusts, "militar
ism" and so on, nro In Colorado, Kan
sas, Nebraska, Arkansas and Indian
territory. All tho others either put
tho trust question llrst or lay much
stress upon Issues produced by the
Spanish war.
Tho signed statdments of tho com
mlttccmont received by tho Chicago
TlmcS'IIorald aro in part as follows:
J. U. Johnson, Kansas: "Nothing
has occurrod since 181M to shake the
faith of Democrats In tho principles
announced In tho Chicago platform.
Tho financial question Is still the dom
inant Issue, and all othor economic
questions nro but collateral to it.
"The trust question has, sines 1800,
become an lssuo of tho llrst magni
tude. Tho Democratic states of Mis
souri, Arkansas and Toxas have this
year adopted drastic laws against
such combinations. Iho Democratic
national convention of 1003 will em
phatically and apaclfioally deal with
this question. Tho Democratic plat
form of 1000 will also doclaro emphat
ically against tho McKlnloy program
of colonization, imperialism and llrit
Ish alliance."
W. II. Thompson, Nebraska: "Tho
battlo' cry of tho Democracy In 1000
should bo tho financial question, as by
it declared In 1800, and anti-trusts,
antl-mllltarlsm, antl-Anglo-American
alliance., Theso issues should have
precedence In tho discussions in the
order named."
Adair Wilson, Colorado: "In my
opinion thero is no doubt that in the
next Presidential campaign tho money
question will bo tho lending Issue, ns
tt was In tho last, and that bimetal
lism tho restoration of silver at the
ratio of 10 to 1 will bo tho battlo
cry of tho Democratic party. Tho
Democratic party has always opposed
trusts, and possibly In view of
rocont events, in its platform of
1000 public attention may bo
more forcibly called to this question,
but in no such senso as to supplant
the financial Issue. Tho former is in
fact embraced in the latter Is only
tho natural outgrowth of tho proscnt
iinanclal policy of the government.
If you wish to destroy an ovll you
must strlko at Its source. llenco to
crush the trusts, restore bimetallism.
Tho paramount issue in tho campaign
of 1000 will bo tho samo as it was In
1600."

Tho monitor Monadnock and tho
gunboat Helena shelled Pnranuquo
and Las Pinas all day with tho full
power of their batteries.
Tho rebel sharpshooters kept In
hiding until tho American lines had
passed and then attempted to pot
stragglers from tho trees. Thanks to
their poor marksmanship, this was
without result.
The whole country provod to bo a
succession of small hills, with boggy
ground between the high, thick grass
and bushes In tho hollows, which
greatly udded to the dllllculty of tho

many from the enemy's bullots. Our

of persons and innumerable wagons
blocked tho thoroughfare and impeded
tho protrross of the cnr. Tho trolley
rope was cut several times, and every

A number of rioters wero nrrcstod
nnd many in tho mob wero clubbed by

and replaco her by another ship, but

declaring that ho did not want to
leavo his post until Paranaquc fell
aud tho coast from there to Cavito
was cleared of rabcls. Tho heat on
Saturday was most severe nnd tho
monitor was engaged all day In shell
ing tho trenches at Paranaquo and tho
rebels fleeing south through Las
Pinas, and also watching tho Amer
ican troops closing in upon tho towns.
Captain Nichols was ovorcotno by
tho heat at noon and retired to his
cabin, where ho received frequent re
ports of tho operations and gavo di
rections for sovoral hours. Ho becamo
much worse at 3 o'clock and lost con
sciousness und oxpirod at 5 o'clock in
the afternoon. Several hours bsforo
his dcith he expressod gratification at
tho way events wero progressing, re
marking to an ofilcer: "Wo havo got
tho rebels thsrc at last."
