Movement to form third party collapses in Chicago
A multi faction fusion led by the Committee of Forty eight failed as labor radicals and single taxers clashed over planks. Senator La Follette declined to run, and the labor side carried its platform while other groups bolted. The trial of William Bross Lloyd and 19 others for sedition opened in Chicago with high profile lawyers and broader implications for radical movements. Governor Clement refused a special session on woman suffrage. The coal and Irish issues further colored the news.
