Sul) Committee's Draft Passed Upon By Full Board.

VERY FEW CHANGES MADE IN THE

DOCUMENT.

Senator Hill Presents a Plauk Endorsing Cleveland Which Meets a Frost—The

Financial Plank Amended and Elabo-

rated Some,

Chicago, July 8.—At the meeting of tho committee on resolutions the sub- committee reported tho following draft of tho platform;

Viv, the Democrats of the United States, In national convention assembled do reaffirm our allegiance to those great essential principles of justice and liberty upon which our institutions are founded and which the Democratic party has advocated from the time of Jefferson to our

own, freedom of speech, freedom of press, freedonijOl conscience, and the preserva- tion of personal rights, the quality of all citizens before the law and the faithful obsorvanoe of constitutional limitation. ft Recognizing that the money question is paramount to all others we Invite attention to the faot that the federal constitution names gold and silver as the money metals of the United States and that the first coinage law passed by congress under the constitution made the Bilver dollar the unit of value and admitted gold to free coinage at a ratio meas- ured by the silver dollar unit.

We deoiare that the act of 1878 demone- tizing silver without tho knowledge or

approval of the American people has resulted in tho appreciation of gold and a

corresponding fall in the prices of com- modities produoed by the people; a heavy increase In the burden of taxation and of all debts, publio and private; the en- richment of the money lending oiass at linmn nnr) nhrnnfl rtiiralraio rvf inductrfi

and impoverishment of the people.

We are unalterably opposed to the single standard which has' looked fast the prosperity of an industrious people in the paralysis of hard times. Gold mono- ruetalisin is a British policy, founded upon British greed tor gain and power, and its general adoption has brought other nations into financial servitude to Lon- don.

It is not only un-American but antl- Amerioan and it aau be fastened upon the United States by the stifling of that iudominitpble spirit of love and liberty which proclaimed our political Indepen- dence in 1776 and w on out iu the wars of the Revolution. We demand the immediate restoration of the free and unlimit- ed coinage of gold and silver at the present legal ration of 16 to 1, without waiting for the consent or aid of any other nation. We demand that the standard j oilver dollar shall be a full legal tenus* the equal of gold for all debts.

We are opposed to the policy and practice of surrendering to the holdors of the' obligations of the United States the option reserved by law to the government of redeeming such obligations in either silver coin or gold coin.

We arc opposed to the issuing of interest hearing bonds of the United States in times of peace and condemn the trafficking with banking syndicates which iu exchange for bonds at an enor- mous profit to thomselves supply the federal treasury with gold to maintain the polioy of gold monometalism.

Congress alone has the power to coin aBd issue monev and President Jackson declared that this power could not be delegated to corporations or individuals. We, therefore, uomnnd that the power to issue notes to circulate at money be taken from the national hanks and that all paper money shall be issued direotly by the treasury department.

We hold that tariff duties should be levied for purposes of revenue and that taxation should be limited by the needs of the government honestly and economi- cally administered. We denounoe as dis- turbing to business the Republican threat to restore the McKinley law which has twice been condemned by the people in national elections and whioh enacted under the false plea of protection to home industry, proved a prolific breeder of trusts, aud monoplists, enriched the few, at the expense of the many, restricted trade and deprived the yroduoers of the great Amerioan staples t>f access to their natural markets. Until the money question is settled we aro opposed to the agi- tation for any further change in the tariff laws oxeopt such as are necessary to

FEWALL TURNED DOWN.

Seth Gordon Selected As National Con- zniiteeraan in Ills Place.

Chicago, July 8.—Free silver at 16 tc 1 proved the downfall of Hod. Arthur Sewall of Maino this forenoon. The delegation of the Pine Tree state got together this morning to elect a member of the national committee. Mr. Sewall was the favorite of the entire delegation but hie silver views niado it impossible for the sound money men to support hirn much as they would have liked to do it. Seth 0. Gordon of Portland was eleoted, tiro gold men supporting him for the position and the silver men favoring Sewall.

A HILL BOOMERANG. ______

Letter Which New York Senator Wrote and Now Washes He iHadn’t.

CbloRgo, July 8.—A letter written by United States Senator Hill to the Atlanta Constitution July 13, 1803, on the issues for tho campaign of 1806, is being quiet- ly circulated and may be read in the convention. It says In part:

‘‘As to the repeal of the Sherman law, I have always been opposed to it. It should bo abandoned by general oonsent. I am in favor of bimetallism as the issue of the future. We should seek to keep that issue to the front. We should not strive for temporary success or com-

promise. We should bo for free coinage turner international agreement, it It ha possible to prooure one, and for which every exertion should be mado; If not possible, then for independent bi-metal- llsm. The unexpected action of India, and the general sentiment of "the rnouied classes conspire against us at this time. “I do not believe in the Bland hill or

any other measure which guarantees anything less than nnrostricted ooinage for gold and silver alike, as pledged in the Demociatio national platform. Let us prepare for victory upon that issne in 189'1. Tho repeal of the Sherman law will not give the relief which is antici- pated. It will aid business temporarily.

In a year’s time, the demand for permanent financial relief will be irre- sistible. We shall continue to hold out free ooinage as the goal to whiah the country must ultimately reach. The triumph of monomecallists will be hut temporary.”

WILL NOT SUPPORT SILVER.

Governor Flower of New Fork Says a

Third Party Is Likely.

Chicago, July a—The New York state delegation adjourned at 1.15 o’olook, this morning, after a session which began at 11.30, without taking notion on the question of supporting a free silver ticket.

Ex-Governor Flower presided and opened the prooeediDgs with a speech, in which he indicated pretty clearly that he celleved in not endorsing the nominee and platform of the oonventioD, provided

y represent free coinage. Henry D. Purroy expressed opposition

to anything like a bolt. Hon. Perry Belmont favored Governor

Flower’3 sentiments and expressed his unwillingness to support a free silver candidate. A sensational speech was made by Con-

gressman Sulzer in which he said that he would not bolt the ticket under any cir- cumstances and when he returned to New York he intended to call a meeting of his constituents to on dorse it. Mr. Sulzer characterized a bolt as treason. “I objeot to that word,” cried Perry

Belmont. ‘‘You may place your own construction

on it,” retorted Sulzer. Frederick R. Coudort answered Mr.

Sulzer, and expressed sentiments against supporting a free silver ticket, but said he vroulu aoido by the will of the majority of the delegation.

Tho meeting adjourned until 3 o’clock this morning.

This morning the decision reached was to remain in the convention for the present and abide by the will of the ma-

jority so far as today’s proceedings are concerned at least. Tammany will also support the nominee. There was a full attendance. What the delegation will do tomorrow or the next day if the convention lasts that long is another question. Tho candidate ouestion was not considered. In view of the fact, that tho platform had not yet beeD adopted, and in the absenoe of Senator Hill, definite notion as to remaining in the convention when candidates were being voted for WOO UC1C/ICCU UUIU1 VUiB uvcuiuy, XU v> as

said to be the sense of those present, however, that New York should leave the hall and take no further part in the convention after the free silver platform Is adopted.

When Gov. Flower reached the convention hall he said to a representative of the United Press. “Many of the New York delegation are in favor of bolting the convention, but this proposition may not carry. Everything depends upon today’s proceedings. I think, however, there is a strong possibility of the forma- tion of a new party.*”

Chicago, July 8.—The convention reassembled at 5.15 p. m. with a full attendance of delegates and crowded galleries. Senator Daniel of Virginia was in the chair as temporary chairman. There appeared no business ready for presentation and the band had to fill up the time. The audience amused itself for some time with calls for Bryan. The calls met with no response. At 5.40, Senator Hill, followed by members of the New York delegation, came into the hall and was

greeted with oheers and shouts of “Hill, Hill.”

No notice of this demonstration was

taken by him. At 6.60 p. m. the com-

mittee un credentials presented its com-

pleted report, admitting to seats the con-

testing delegates from the fourth con-

gressional distiiot of Michigan, Messrs. Chamberlains and Hart, also admitting the contesting delegates from the ninth congressional district of Michigan, Messrs. Hoyt and White, and recognizing the right to their seats of all the other delegates from Michigan.

Mr. Crosby of Massachusetts, for the minority, offered an amendment to retain the four unseated members In their seats. A long debate followed. While Gov. McLurin of Mississippi, member of the committee on credentials was speak- ing in favor of the majority report, the audience manifested impatience and oried for a speech from Hill.

Notice was given that If these inter- ruptions were persisted in the galleries would be cleared. The notice was of no avail, and hardly had Gov. McLurin taken up the thread of his story again, when the shouts for Hill broke out afresh. Then the sergeant-at-arms made a solemn proclamation: “Ladies and gentlemen, the ohair has requested tho sergeant-at-arms to instruct the assistant sorgennt-at-arms and police department to remove from the galleries any one who disturbs the meeting, and ho will oarry out the order.” (Ironical applause and laughter.)

air. MoKnight asserted that the State of Michigan had elected a majority of 200 to the convention in favor of silver, and whenjjtbegadmlnistratiou in Washing- ton found this out, Mr. Stevenson was sent to Washington to upset the will of the people.

“There is not a word of truth in all that,” said Mr. Richardson from his seat. Mr. McKnight prooeeded further with the statement of alleged faots Mr. Wbeelook one of the delegates at large said in an audible voice: “That's a lie.” No notice was tRken of the interruption.

When C. 8. Thomas of Colorado, a member of the National committee, took the stand, the audience raised loud cries of “vote.” Mr. Thomas argued for the minority. As Senator Thomas Grady of Naio Vnrlr nma cnonlriiicv Arralnot tho mo_

jority report, one of the numerous very obtuse policemen stationed in tbe building, attempted to prevent tho entrance of a delegate, and a small sized row and some excitement prevailed. The ohairman ordored the band to strike up, and tho convention quieted down. Tho discussion closed by Mr. Wheelook of Miohi- gan and O’Donnell of Colorado. Little or no attention was paid to these speeohes as the crowd In the galleries was quite turbulent and eould not be kept in order. Tho convention itself as well as the spectators In the galleries was in a hurry to oorae|to a vote. Mr. O’Donnell moved the previous question on the ropoit. The previous question was sooonded.

When Now York 'a 73 votes were announced as in favor of tbe minority report a tumultuous wave of cheering broke out. The first effort of the ohairman to repress the manifestations by use of the gavel were met by a counter demonstration on the part of the gold delegates, who rising and turning their backs to the ohairman and faces to the immense orowds in the galleries, waved their hats and handkerohiefs as they stood on their ohairs and gesticulated. The galleries evidently were strongly anti-silver in sentiment, and were not slow to respond to the unearthly sounds from 60,000 throats that filled the vast space of the great hull.

The Tammany yell was plainly heard in every temporary lull. The band tried in vain to compete with the babel of noise. Every rap of the chairman's gavol seemed to start it again, as it began to quiet down. Shouts for Hill, yodel oalls, and shrill whistles ’added to the confusion. Then the silver men began to hiss and stamp their feet nnd this made matters iufluitely worse. Sonator Daniel’s powerful voice, much woru with tho sorvloe yesterday, called tho next state, “North Carolina.”

“North Carolina deolines to vote till she can bo heard,” replied the ohairman of the delegation.

Prominent New Yorkers vainly tried to stop the demonstration. It went on fifteen minutes, and was barely silenced whou the roll call was resumed. When Pennsylvania was reached, Chairman Harrity. mounting on the ohair said: “Pennsylvania ousts her 64 votes aye.” An attempt was made to renew the demonstration, but it died away in a few

second, spectators and delegates being almost tired out. The vote was taken oh the minority amendment, which retains the sitting members from the fourth and ninth districts of Michigan in their sents

The vote resulted in tho rejection ot the minority report, yeas, 368; nays, 558; absent, 2; not voting, 2.

“Tho noes have it,” said the chairman and the amondment was lost. It was

now the silver men’s turn. They yelled and waved their hats and handkerchiefs, and displayed Bland pictures and made

the night hideous for nearly as long ns

tho gold mon, tho gallerios impartially assisting. During tho jubilation by the silver men, two stout Kentucky delegates danced a brakedown in tho aisles at the rear of the delegates section, several others “patting time” amid Che wildest laughter. The offioial detailed vote by states:

Alabama, nay, 22; Arkansas, nay, 16; California, aye, 11; nay, 6; absent, 1; Colorado, aye, 4; nay, 4; Connecticut, aye, 12; Delaware, aye, 6; Florida, aye, 8; Georgia, nay, 26; Idaho, nay, C; Illinois, nay, 48, aye, 8; nay, 22; Iowa, nay, 28; Kansas, nay, 20; Kentucky, nay, 26; Louisiana, nay, 16; Maine, aye, 10, two not voting; Maryland, aye, 15. nay, 1; Massachusetts, aye, 27, nay, 3; Michi- gan,'aye, 28; Minnesota, aye, 13, nay, 4, ahsont, 1; Mississippi, nay, 18; Missouri, nay, 34; Montana, nay, 6; Nebraska, nay, 16; Nevuda, nay, 6; New Hamp- shire, aye, 8; New Jersey, aye, 20; New York, aye, 72; North Carolina, aye, 1, nay, 81; North Dakota, nay, 6; Ohio, nay 46; Oregon nay 8; Pennsylvania, aye 64: Rhode Island, aye, 8; South Carolina, nay, 18; South Dakota, aye, 8; Tennessee, nay, 24; Texas, nay, 3; Li tail, nay, 6; Vermont, aye, 8; Virginia, nay, 24; Washington, aye, 4; nay 4, West Vir- ginia, aye 2, nay, lu; Wisconsin, aye, 24; Wyoming, nav, 6; Arizona, nay, 6; New Mexico, nay, '6; Oklohoma, nay, 6; In- dian Territory, nay, 6; Distrios Colum- bia, aye, 1; nay, 6; Alaska, aye, 6.

The ohairman nut the ouestiou on the majority report of tbo committee on

credentials and declared it adopted. The report of the committee on permanent or-

ganization was presented by Mr. Finley of Ohio, naming Senator Whlto of Cali- fornia permanent president of the con-

vention, and Thomas J. Hogan of Oiiio, permanent secretary. An amendment to the report was offered in relation to the appointment of delegates from Nebraska to the several committees (substituting other names) and the amendment was

agreed to. A motion was made to refer back to the committee that portion of the report relating to commitleemen from Michigan. It was agreed to. With those exceptions the report was adopted. A committee of three was appointed to escort Senator White to the chair.

On taking the chair lie said he would extend fail and equal and impartial treatment to all. Every question before the convention should be considered oare-

fully and deliberately und when tbe voice of the convention was orystnlized into judgment, that judgment should be bind- ing to all true Democrats. (Cheers.) Mr. Clark of Montana produced a silver gavel from the mines of Montana whioh he tendered to the presiding officer in the name of the delegation from that state. The ohairman remarked that in the ahsonce of objection he would feel compelled to acoept this handsome present from the Montana delegation. No objection being heard the silver gavel was passed up.

Chairman Jones of Arkansas, of the committee on resolutions, announced the the committee on platform and resolutions would meet tomorrow morning at

9.30. This was taken by the heated and excited audience as ai* indication of immediate adjournment. An inoipient panic partially developed. People in the galleries began to move with a rush nnd a

corresponding movement started on the floor.;; The means of exit from the building are so utterly insufficient that trouble might have followed but the sergeant qt arms, raising his big voioe, commanded his deputies to step those men. When some degree of order had been restored a motion to adjourn till 10 tomorrow morn-

ing was put at 9.30 p. m., declared car-

ried, and the second day’s session ended.

THE DAY SESSION. It Consisted Chiefly of Talk While Waiting

for Reports.

Chicago, July 8.—The convention was slow in assembling this morning. There were but few demonstrations for publio favorites as they enterod the hall. Tem- porary Chairman Daniel at 10.51 called the convention to order. The New York delegation were not in their seats, but it was understood they were holding a

uauons on the question whether or. not

they should attend any more sessions of the convention.

A prayer was offered by Rev. Thomas E. Green, rector of Grace Episcopal church, Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

The report of the committee on credentials was called for, but there was uo response nnd it was announced that they were about to reassemble after their lung night session.

At 11.12 on a motion of Senator Martin of Kansss, a reoess of five minutes was taken to permit Gov. Hogg of Texas to address the convention. Ho advocated the cultivation of a spirit of friendliness in order to win rv viotory next November.

In condemning the Republican party 4«o uuoioumuu icjjdiH bG guiU fllKL

silver, Governor Hogg exclaimed in tones of indignation: “Aro you Americans, or are you truckling sycophants, winning smiles from foreign crowns?” (Cheers.)

Gov.Hogg’s five minutes were stretched into half an hour, but still there were no tidings from the oommittee on credentials and amid vociferous ories for Hill, who was not presont, the chair recognized Senator-elect Money of Mississippi, who moved that Senator Blackburn of Ken- tucky be invited to the stand.

“Let us declare wo are to promulgate a platform that shall not obscure or deflect publio attention from the one great issue upon which the campaign is to turn, that we mean to unlook tho doors of tlio ruiuts and put silver where it was before. (Cheers.)

Mr. Blaokburn, the first Drououuoed candidate to be heard, was received with tumultuous applause. He said the Demo- cratic party had opened the campaign in splendid style. They had swept over the skirmish line and their further duty was plain. Let us declare further that we Uon’t approve the issue of interest-bearing Donds In times of peace; or of giving the option of purchase to the man holding the obligation, and that we cpposo the retirement of the greenbacks. ”

All these poiDts woro loudiy cheered. He closed by advising them to bo tem- perate and conservative, but manly and brave.

As Senator Blaokburn sat down mere cries were raised for Hill without response. A motion to adjourn for half an hour was voted down and the band was started up to drown tho confusion which prevailed.

Mr. Money of Mississippi moved that the Hon. J. W. Bryan of Nebraska bo invited to the stand. This was received with every demonstration of approval, but the Chair announced that Mr. Bryan was not Iu the hall.

HEADQUARTERS AT NEW YORK.

Republican National Committee Will Do

Its Business from the Metropolis.

Cleveland O., July 8.—The National Republican executive committee will meet at Mark Hanna’s office in this city next Tuesday, July 14.

The committee will then deoide that tho national headquarters will be in New York city, as is customary; will fill the vacancies in the National committee from Colorado, Alaska, r.nd the Distriot of Columbia, and will decide upon a

plan of campaign. Tho day following the adjournment of

tbo Democratic convention Mark Hanna will go to Canton to make a final sub- mission to Major McKinley of tho membership of the executive committee of the Republican party. The certainties are as follows: Mark A. Hanna of Cleveland, chairman; Charles G. Dawes of Evans- ton, 111.; W. T. Durbin of Anderson, led. ; Cyrus Leland of Troy, Kansas; Joseph H. Manley of Augusta, Me.; Henry C. Paine of Milwaukee, Wis.

These have given their assent and will serve. The other three are likely to he Matthew S. Quay of Beaver, Pa.’; Powell Clayton of Little Rock, Ark.; and John M. Thurston of Omaha, Neb.

The sacretary of the committee will certainly be William McKinley Osborne of Roxbury, Mass., unless his New Eng- land opponents bring arguments more than usually oogent to bear against his becoming Mark Hanna’s right hand II! UU.

Major McKinley will leave Canton for tbe first time since bis nomination on July 22 to attend the centennial celebra- tion of tbe founding of Cleveland.

HAD A HARDER RACE-

But tie Leander Crew Won Again at Ben-

tage wero not so dense as they were

Yesterday’s raoe between Leander and Yale is still tbe leading topic of conversa- tion and discussion. Kverytody praises the musclo and pluck of the Yale men.

Tile Yale men wiil leave their quarters at tho Marsh Mills houso Friday morn-

ing and will attend a dinner to bo given in tlieir honor at the Sports club that evening. It is likely that upon that occasion Capt. Treadway will speak on behalf of the Yale crow. Delegates from ail of the crows participating in the re-

gatta aredeslrous of attending the dinner. The Yale men will return to tho United

States separately, as some of them intend visiting the continent.

Continued from First Page.

Gov.Altgeld of Illinois was then called for and rising in the body of the hall ho indicated a desire to give way to Senator Hill. The Chair stated that Senator Hill was engaged at the committee of resolutions and was not in the hall.

Governor Overmeyer of Kansas took the'stand and declared that yesterday the seat of empire was transferred from the Atlantic Scales to the Mississippi valley. The day of the common people had dawned and the “dollar of our daddies” would be restored. This sentiment was received with unbounded enthusiasm. The band once more filled up the inter- lude to kill tho time.

Gov. Altgeld was again called into requisition as a ston gap Ho was greeted with cheers, to whioh he rosponedd by saying ho did r.ot come here to make a

speech hut to assist in nominating a President and preparing a platform which should bring hope to the people. Ho was listened to with attention as he proceeded to discuss the oause of the ex-

isting conditions of distress, whioh he summarized us the combined notion of the moncyud interests of the world to make money donr and property and labor cheap.

Mr. George Fred Williams of Massa- chusetts was next called upon and was greeted with a cry, “Three cheers for George Fred IVilliams. He combatted tho afertiou that the seat of the empire had beon transferred from the Atlantic coast to the Mississippi valley. The seat of empire was where it ever was, in the statai of the Union, and the battle now

being waged was for tho restoration of the Union of the states. He begged there might be no other word of sectionalism heard in this convention. The fight was not to transfer tho seat of empiro from tho East to the West, hut to transfer tho control or tho Treasury and your money and mine from Lombard street, to the centres of industry in the United States. (Loud oheerti.)

At this poiut (1.10 p. m.), the chair announced a partial report of the committee on credentials recommending that eaoh of the territories and the |District of Columbia be granted six votes. Second, after oareful comparison of the credentials returned aud by tho national committee, they found all of them correct exoept those irom the states of Nebraskn and Michigan, In regard to Nebraska they wore pleased to report that the delegates headed by Hon. W. J. Bryan should bo admitted to seats. In regard to Miohigau they asked further time.

Mr. M ilianey of Nebraska arose in tbe body of the hall aud gracefully offered to vacate the seat now occupied by the sitting members for the benefit of their successful contestants. The motion to adopt the report was carried by a viva voce vote, a demand for a roll cnil whioh was nt first made by Gov. Russell being withdrawn on the statement of the ohnir- man of the credentials committee that tho report was unanimous.

At 1.14 the gold delegation from Ne- braska retired to a march tune by tbe band and tbeir silver successors took their places. The Bryan men, us they marohed in, were headed by silver tipped pears and bannors, bearing Mr. Bryan’s name in silver letters.

At 1.34 Senator White called the convention to order and stated that word had been reoeived from the committee on credentials tha* no report could bo ex-

pected for three hours. Ho suggested a recess until 5 o’clock. The convention took a reoess until 5 p. m.

Pitchfork Tillman’s Address.

Chicago, July 8.—When the report of the committee ou resolutions is made to the convention tomorrow the minority report will be presented endorsing the financial polioy of tho Cleveland administration. To that Senator Tillman of South Carolina will offer an amendment and address the convention upon it. The address will denounce Cleveland in the most intemperate terms, stating that the bond sale was an act deserving impeach- ment.

Short Bat Expressive. Chicago, July 8.—It is learned that the

minority report on the platform relates exclusively to the financial plank, and its text is quite short. It declares for the existing standard and endorsing the call- ing of an international monetary con- ference.

THE PLATFORM. Continued from First Page.

nnko up the deficit in revenue caused by i die adverse decision of the supremo oourt on the income tax.

There wouid be no deficit in the trea- ury but for the aimuliment by the su-

preme court of a law passed by a liemo- .'ratie Congress in strict pursuance of the uniform decisions of tnat court for nearly 100 years that court having sus- ; tained constitutional objections to its en- actment which have been overruled by the ablest judges who had ever sat on 1

that bench. We declare that it is the duty of Con-

gress to uso all the constitutional power that remains after that decision,or which ( may come with its reversal by the court as it may he hereinafter constituted 1

so that the burden of taxation may he equally and impartially laid to the end that all may bear its proportion of the exponses of the government.

The platform opposes importation of foreign pauper labor: denounces “profli- gate waste of money wrung from th9 peoplo by oppressive taxation and lavish appropriations of reoent Republican eon- 1

grosses;’’ it denounces arbitrary inter- ference by federal authorities in local a Hairs aud objects to government by in- juuotion as u new and highly dangerous lorm of oppression by whioh federal judges beoorne at once legislators, judgos and executioners; it favors just pensions to Union soldiers, extends sympathy to the Cubans; opposes life tenure in public service; favors administration of oivil service Inws ns will afford equal opportu- nities to all citizens of ascertained fitness; it holds that no man should be eligible for a third term of presidential office.

Mr. Miller of Oregon moved the adoption of the report of the sub committee. The motion was not presented and the

uiiau ujo uuuuiuoub uu loan uy paragraphs for discussion and amendment being agreed to Mr. Thurman of Ohio offered as an amendment to the money plank the St. John proposition that the seoretary of the treasury he authorized to issue coin certificates in case of panlo or

money Btringoncy.Supporting the amendment he said that if the money power attempted to bring on a panic the people of 70,000,000 would be found behind the government, not behind tho banks. Ap- plause. Tho amendment caused a spirited discussion. It was defeated by a small majority on the ground that it was detail of legislation, which had better bo left to tho discretion of the Demooratio oon-

gress. Senator Hill stated that he was ready

to submit the views of the minority if the convention desired to hear them. He stated that he did not desire to put them before the committee merely for tho purpose of having them read but to refute tbo obarga that he oonoealed them. The minority expected to submit their views for the consideration of the convention in any event.

A desultory but somewhat excited disouBsion followed, a willingness being expressed on the part of the majority to hear the minority views if Senator Hill dosired to present them.

He decided that it was not desirable.in volving as it would some additional time and the double statement of them to tho committee and convention.

The reading of the platform was resumed. Judge Maguire of California said he would prefer to substitute the inter- con vertablo bond for national bank our- renov, rather than abolish the latter with nothing to take its place. He did not press the matter upon the resolution relating to bond issues.

Tho pauio matter came up again. Mr. Thurman addressed the committee a seo- ond time in advocacy of his amendment authorizing the issue of the coin certificates and It was agreed to in the following form:

“And as a safe guard against money stringency tho secretary of the treasury shall be empowered to issue suoh ooin certificates, additionally against deposits of the interest bearing bonds of the Unit- ed States, the intorest accruing on tho bonds to Insure to the United States, pending their re-exohange for the ooin certificates, which coin certificates when returned shall be cancelled.

“Provided that such additional coin certificates shall not reduce the percen- tage of coin or bullion reserved for coinage certificates and silver certificates^ below 60 per cent of tho aggregate sum of ooin certificates and silver certificates outstanding. The now outstanding silver certificates, gold certificates and notes of 1890 to be retired as they come to the treasury. ”

The tariff section was amended to read that such duties should be made to be equal throughout the country, and not discriminate as to Masses or sections. ;

Several propositions to insert state- ments that the supreme court of the United States in the income tax decision sustained constitutional objections which had boen overridden by previous deols-

out discussion. The declaration of the sub committee

in favor of the admission of New Mexico and Arizona was substituted a more extensive one offered by a member from New Mexioo, which included the Dis- trict of Columbia as one of the corporations that should be made a state and included a demand for local appointees to official positions.

This was agreed to 18 to 10 over the ob- jootion of tho member from South Caro- lina, who wanted the sub committee’s work to go through without amendment. A resolution demanding the admission of a delegate from Alaska Into oongress was agreed to 17 to 14. The re-

maining portions of the platform were agreed to without muob disoussion and with little or no oliange of form or sub- stance. Most of tho talking was dono by tho silver men who were not agreed among themselves upon many propositions submitted.

The text as agreed upon last night by a majority of the sub oommittee bad been altered in the oase of nearly every resolution, after they reassembled this morning, and tho full oommittae made substantial changes in the draft submitted to them. Tho proposition to declure in favor of tho restoration of differential tonnage dues in favor of American vessels was lost.

At 2 the consideration of the platform by sections was concluded. A motion was made by Mr. Reagan of Texas that the chairman of the oommittee be in- structed to report tho document as agreed upon to the convention with the recommendation that it bo adopted. The response to chairman Jones’ presentation of the question to tho oommittee was decided in the negative. He put It again and it was carried by a viva voce vote. Senator Hill was given consent to move tlie audition of a paragraph commending the intelligence, integrity and faithful- eness of the administration of President Cleveland. Half a dozen members moved to lay It on the table. The platform having been finished the motion to lay on the (able prevailed, nays, 29; noes, 17. The following voted in the negative, Hill of New York, Holman of Maine, Kussoil of Massachusetts, Harrison of Connecti- cut, Drew of Now Hampshire, Gray of Deelawaro, Poe of Maryland, Vilas of Wisconsin, Wright of Pennsylvania, Baker of Rhode Island, Rogers of Alas- ka, Farrell of Vermont, O’Brien of Min- nesota, Steele of South Dakota, McDer- mott of New Jersey, Weadook of Miohi-

;an and Harwood of Nebraska. The lat 1

er cast his vote and then gave way to I Irynn of the silver delegation. A motion vns made to formally adopt the platform, ihe roll of states was called resulting, roas, 33; noes, 15.

The negative vote was'the same as that ecordod Jabove, save that Mr. Harwood ; vns not on the committee and Mr. Wead- ick hud left the room before the roll was

;allud. The committee adjourned sub- eot to the call of the oliairman.

A young girl by the name of Alice Robinson residing on the corner of Preble street and Broadway wus quite badly bitten by a vicious bull dog about $ o’clock yesterday afternoon. The dog is owned by a Mr. Lee living in the same house with the Robinson family, is very cross and kept tied in tho yard. The girl opened the gate to go into the house when the brute made a spriug at her breaking the rope whioh held him and grabbod the girl by the right ankle in- flicting a wound about two inches ’ong and quite deep. The girl screamed and sprang for the gate and some men who happened to see the affair ran to her as- sistance and drove the dog baok with stones before he oould make n second at- tack. If the dog hadn’t been prevented by the missiles whioh were hurled at him from every side he would probably have torn the girl to pieces. He was ordered to be killed immediately. Dr. Lowell was called and thoroughly cauterized the wound in the girl’s ankle and said there would probably bo no serious results from the bite except perhaps a lameness for a few days.

The bright sunlight of yesterday aftcr- loon started up business of all kinds ilong the water front. The Casco Bay iteamers did a rushing business, transacting hundreds of pleasure bent parties 0 the islands.

Over forty sail of fishermen got away yestorday forenoon.

The only fish arrival yesterday besides the small sail boats, was the Robert & Carr with one hundred barrels of mackerel consigned to Willard. Tho season has beeu a hard one for the fishermen as the mackerel have not been plentiful and what catches have been made have been email. The big drag net boats and seiners report that tho mackerel are now working on towards shore. What maokerel have been brought in are running large, and are extremely fine fish.

Haddock are also reported as being very scarce this year, and yesterday there were vory few to be bought in Portland. The fishermen say that the haddook have been growing less plentiful every year.

The topsail sohooner Preference, Capt. Baxter from Arroys, Porto Rico, with BOO hogshead of molasses for George S. Hunt & Co., arrived yesterday after a quick passage of fifteen days. This makes the third cargo of molasses whioh has arrived here within thirty hours, a very unusual ouourrenae now-a-days.

The Preference attracted lota of attention along shore yosterday. She is a

handsome vessel, painted white and oarries her square rigged topsail on the mainmast instead of tho fore, as they nre

tug Carbonero dronped into Portsmouth on her way down to Portland, pioked up a Reading ooal barge there, then came to Portland with this barge as tow, bitched on to the other coal barge here and returned to New York. The captains of the towboats about Portland considered this a very peculiar performance as the coal barge whiob was at Portsmouth had to be towed over part of the way twice.

The sea tug loo King, arrived here Monday night and towed the schooners Annie E. J. Morse and Sarah Kneeland to the Kunnebeo, where they will load with ioe for the South.

Baseball Notes.

They are beginning to become weary up in Bangor of paying major league salaries in a minor organization. Direc- tor Fowler announces that he wants to quit.

The Augusta Journal says Drew struck the people there as being a natural hitter and more than an averago fielder, and the Journal says he acted like a fast man at Lewiston. H8 struok the patrons of the game here about the sams waj\ It seems as though an explanation was due the public as to why this man was re-

leased until soma one was secured In his dace at least.

Pitcher Lincoln has been released by fall River. We fanoy Ezra will not re-

naln Idle long. Well its some oomfort to run up against ten inning game. The Xjewiston Journal thinks Me—

Xougall is easy for every one but them. Veil, the last time he pitched against Jangor here, be was hit safely th ee

imes. Fall River hit him for eight ingles the last time they were here, and 4cw Bedford nine.

Lewiston has released Mcfiuane and Xhestneo has beon sent to Massachusetts.

The Emeralds defeated tho Cannings tino of York street 35 to 24, yesterday at 'he Oaks. The pitching and catchiug of Toyoe and Cady were features of the tame. Flushed with victory, the Emeralds challenge the Cathedral Stars for a game Thursday afternoon.

Arrangements were made last night for a Knox county baseball league and a schedule was arranged. Tho teams are

Rockland, Tbomaston and Camden. Rockland will oueu the season in Thom- aston Monday, July 13.

Partly because the convention Is to bo held so soon after the oele- biation of Independence day, hut chiefly for the reason that the promotion of good oitizenship Is a fundamental prin- ciple of tho Christian Endeavor Society, und because, ^further, the convention this year is to be held in the capital city of a country-loving nation, is tho patriotic feature to he made prominent. ■

Merely because tho oonventlon is to to held in Washington, a groat impulse will be given in this direction. The heart of every American oitizeu bents witn reasonable pride as he views the beautiful capital aud visitB its publio buildings and sees the most prominent statesmen, members of the judiciary and officers of the army aud navy in the country, whose presence here is required by official duties. Every oitlzen of tho United States has a desire to visit, at least onoe in his career, the city whore Uncle Sam lives; to go through tbo department buildings, see for himself somotiiing of the machinery of government and perhaps offer suggestions as to the manner in which the system could be improved, or select an office that he would like to fill. Thousands of those who are either on their way to the oonventlon or are making preparations for an early start, have never been to Wash- ington; they will see its lofty monument and graceful Capitol dome, its p ublic buildings, statues of heroes, its parks and handsome private residences for the flrut time. No other city in tha country presents so many points of interest or so

many mementos that are interwoven into the nation’s history os does Wash- ington.

IN FRONT OF THE CAPITOL. Because these faots aie recognized and

because it is desired to emphasize them, a grand patriotic demonstration has been

planned for Saturday afternoon, July 11, in front of the Capitol. Permission to

use the building and grounds for this purpose has been granted the committee of ’90 by Vice President Stevenson and Speaker Heed. It is proposed to have the chorus of more than 4,000 voioes oo- oupy the steps where succeeding Presi- dents take the oath of office and deliver to thrungiug crowds in the spacious plaza fronting the building their inaugural addresses. President Frauds E. Clark, of the World’s Chrisitau Endeavor Union, will next Saturday occupy tho stand and the open square will be filled with members of the organization from all lands. A good oitizonship banner will be presented and a brief addross is to be delivered, but the principal feature is expected to be the chorus slngiug. For the first time since the mammoth body was organized, the four seotious will be brought together under one director, and more than 4,000 voices will join in hymns and songs, whoso theme Is liberty, freedom and love of father- land. The strains will oe taken up by the assembled thousands, and patriotic impulses will stir every heart.

After the exercises at the Capitol the Endeavorers will march In a body along Pennsylvania avenue to the Treasury— the historic route tramped by the victorious Union armies when they passed in grand review through the oity al'er the restoration of peace, in 1865, the same

parade ground thnt is quadrennially traversed by Inaugural prooesslons.

The programme has been so arranged that nothing will Interfere with this feature. Meetings will be held Saturday morning in the tents, but nothing except the Capitol vesper exerolse has been planned for the afternoon. Everything gives way to the demonstration of patriotio fervor.

PATRIOTIC EXERCISES.

One of the tents Saturday morning is to be occupied by the juniors for their rally, and busy preparations have been under way for some weeks to have a suc-

cessful and helpful meeting. An exer-

oise, entitled “The Junior’s Love of Country,” prepared by Mrs. Janies L. Hill, bas been rehearsed and will bo given by seleoted members of tbs Dis- trict Junior Union. There will be a

number of flag marches, Interspersed with recitations and songs. The national hymns of various countries will be sung, and children in costume, representing the States ami Territories and the Distriat of Columbia, will engago in the flag drills. The recitations will he short and to the point, and emphasize the love of country and of home inher- ent in the people of all lends.

Tuesday, after the convention a pil- grimage is to be made to Mount Vernon, and patriotio exercises will be held on

the lawn in frout of its hiatorio mansion* It is the expectation that ten thousand Endeavorers will moke the trip. It is also hoped that a good proportion of the convention chorus will be present. JBilef addresses are to be made by some of the trustees of the Christian Endeavor Sooie- ty, and patriotio songs amid patriotic scenes will be sung.

THE OFFICIAL BADGE.

After niBnv weeks of retloence and

mystery the decoration oommittee has at last shown to the public the design of the official badge of the convention. Now that local Endeavorers have seen

it, they are ready to agree with tuo

members of the decotatioo committee that it is the prettiest convention badge ever issued to an international gathering of the society. It consists of a red and blue silk ribbon, with a white five-point- ed star, in the center of which is woven in blue the familiar C. hi. monogram. There is a celluloid pendant with gilt rim, bearing the inscription, “fifteenth International Convention. July 8-13, beneath which is an engraving of the Washington monument iu the oenter, with the Capitol and White House on

either side. The ribbon and pendant are attached to a gilt p’n, stamped with the date “188fi” and the word “Washing- ton.” The uppor half of the ribbon is

red, the lower blue, while in tho center is the white star, an emblem that is con-

spicuous in every design distinctively re-

lating to Washington's convention. The badge is not gaudy, nor is it cheap in appearance; on tho contrary, it is in ex-

cellent tasto, combines the national and convention colors, and is very handsome.

No one artist can be given the credit for its harmonious and striking design It is rather a composite, the product of the suggestions and ideas of the decoration committee. The suggestion of a

pendant came from one, that of the pin from another, while the adoption of the star was duo to the recommendation of a third. But as finally put before the puolic i„ seems destined to make tho most favorable impression, and it is be- lieved it will be preserved ns a valued souvenir of tho convention.

Tho marvel is that such an attractive badge can bo manufactured st tho price of this one. A badge is to be given to each deiegat8 who registers, and consequently tha committee lias had to pro- vide a largo nurabor, and as the iunds ware limited, the cost of the entile lot had to be kept at a low figure.

-----f two and one-third cents apiece the com

mittee has secured what many Delieve lo bo badges far mors handsome than those that have been given ont at other con-

ventions, and which cost more money. The chorus badges are similar to the

official badge, so lar ns the pin and pend- unt are concerned. The only difference lies in t.iie ribbon, which is longer and narrower and of one color, and in the lettering on it. Tno chorus badge lias the word “Chorus” stamped in gilt letters diagonally across the oenter of the ribbon, while above is a large lotter designating the different sections of the

ohorus. A, B, C, or JJ, as the case may be, and just below are tho numerals

! “’86.” There nre fonr colors of ribbons, one for each of tbe parts of the chorus. All soprano badges are fraise, the alto violet, the tenor cardinal red, and the base royal blue. Chairman Clark, of the music committee, is more than pleased with the ohorus badge. He says unreservedly that in his opinion it is eveu handsomer than tbe official convention badge.

Besides the badges there have arrived from the manufacturers a supply of hat bauds, with which the members of tho working committees nre supplied. These are of a distinctive design, which, ns in the case of the badges, has been kept a profound socret up to this time. They combine the convention colors, red, white and blue, but in a manner not of ten soen. The oolovs nre woven in stripes, in tho center being a broadband of blue, on either side of which is a narrower stripe of white, and the top and bottom edges are red. In tbe blue stripe is stamped in silver letters tbe name of the committee lutended to be designated,

FOR PRESIDENT,

William flcKinley OF OHIO.

FOR V3CE PRESIDENT,

Garret A. Hobart OF NEW JERSEY.

FOR GOVERNOR,

Llewellyn Powers OF MOULTON.

Tho New York delegates at the conven-

tion are creditably united. Every odo

of the seventy-two is a sound money man.

Congressman Amos Cummings, most

fiery of Tammany’s war horses, Is con-

strained to admit that the disruption of the Democratic party mny follow this convention.

Virginia is tho only slate in the Union all of whose representatives in the United States Senate and House are col-

lege graduates; and yet tho fume of those

Virginians is as modest as. that of any other State delegation.

It must be admitted that the New York delegation under the lead of the ever-wioked Hill is showing up much better at Chicago than the A{as3aohusetts delegation, under the immaculate lead-

ership of the Williams-Bussell element.

For the first time in many years th

ocoupant o.’ the White House has no

special telegraph wire running to the convention hall of his party. There is so much thunder and lightning in the air this time that it might not be safe.

The Westorn siiverites who regard tho story of Maine being debatable ground this f«ll n.s “nn ivridfifiponfc rlri'Ain nf

crazy people” aro ontirely right. The nomination of Mr. Arthur Sewall for vice president would not disturb the political equlllbiium of this State at all.

The statisticians at Washington figure out that this country’s exports of manu-

factured gonds have increased consider- ably during the last two years, and somo of tho Damocratio papers are making haste to claim this as one of the results of the Wilson tariff law. It may be one of tho results of that law; but it is not nec-

essarily a favorable result. During the last two years tho market for goods in the United States must have been greatly curtailed because of the inability of tho people to buy as they formerly did. In such n situation it is quite probable that the manufacturers may have been driven to seek other purchasers abroad.

Tho Centennial oolebration at Castine today is an event of great historical interest in this State. No town in Maine has more of romance in its past or beauty in its presont than Castine. Its founder, Baron Castine, an adven- turous French soldier, belonged to the school of tho Champlains and Fronte- nacs, names associated with somo of the most thrilling pages of American history. Castine, as described by Whittier, Was

One whose boarded cheek And white and wrinkled brow bespeak A wanderer from tho shores of France. A few long locks of scattered snow Beneath a battered morion bow, And from the rivets of his vest, Which girds in steel his ample breast, The slanting sunbeams glance. In tho harsh outlines of his face Passion and 6iu have left their trace; Yer, save worn brow end thin gray hair, No signs of weary age are there. Pits step is firm, Ins eye is keen, Nor years in broil and battle spent, Nor toil, nor wounds, nor pain, bad bont The lordly frame of old Castine. g

Tho British occupation of Castine in 1815 was a great event in the Province of Maine, although that occupation did ns

little permanent harm and the British little good. The founding of Dalhousie

College, at Halifax, on tho prooeeils of tho customs dues coiieoted during the

occupation, was probably tho most permanent result of the occupation.

At present the town is known chiefly for its excellent State normal school, its old forts, its beautiful streets and its delights as a summer resort.

For a fow days tho‘‘l wo thirds” rule is to he very prominent in tho minds of the rending public. Once in four yours, whenever tho Democratic party niOBts in national convention, tho country is treated to the speotacle of a body of delegates who dare not trust tho majority of their membership to nominate a i’resi- dont; but fall back ler approval upon the saving oimmon sense of one third of the whole bedy. This two thirds rule is coeval with the uational political con-

vention in America. After the practice of nominating candidates for President in caucusos of Congressmen had grown into disfavor, and tho nominations by State legislatures had been found too clumsy a dovico, tho national political convention was devised, or rather evolved. It was in the ever-glorious days of Andrew Jackson. The Hero of Now Orleans had been first elected in 1828. In 1832 therofwas no doubt of his ronomina- tion but there vvas a sharp contest over tho selection of a candidate for Vice President, and in the convention whiok met in Baltimore—the first national Democratic convention—ths rule was

adopted that in selecting tho candidate for Vice President two thirds of the whole numher of votes in the convention should be necessary to constitute a

choice. From that day the rule has sur- vived in tho solection of both President and Vice President in every Democratic national convention. In 1844 a determined effort was made in the convention to throw off this rule. The leaders in this attempt were Marcus Morton, of Massachusetts, Nathan Clifford, of Maine, and Daniel S. Dickinson, of New York. The reason for this attempt was

simple hut important. Van Buren had been nominated and elected in 1838 through the patronage of Andrew Jack- son. For tho preceding 68 years of the government’s history the Democrats had suppported no northern man for Presi- dent. But although defeated iu 1840, Van Buren was still strong within his party in 1344. But tho South was bitter- ly against him hncause he had declared against Calhoun’s scheme for tne annex- ation of Texas. Tiiey thought that by forcing the two thirds rule they could defoat Van Buren They succeeded. The rule was adopted, and although Van Buren had a majority of tho delegates on the first ballot, he could not get tho needed two thirds. The honor went to James K. Polk on tho seventh ballot. From that contest camo the Mexican war, the strengthening of slavery, the division of the New Y’ork Democracy on

the slavery issue, and tho final revenge of the friends of Van Buren, who by nominating him in 184£ drew off enough votes to defeat Cass, a Northern man

with Southern principles, who had allowed the use of his name in tho convention of 1844 to demoralize Van Buren’s northern support. In 1852 General Cass might perhaps have been nominated had it not been for the two thirds rule; but on the thirty-fifth ballot the name of Franklin Pierce was brought forward and on the forty-ninth ballot Fierce re-

ceived the nomination. In the great tur- moil of the Charleston convention of 1880, the principal fight and the secession of the Southern delegates was caused by the plank of the platform relating to

slavery. The rule being adopted after the Southern delegates had left that two thirds of a full convention should bo re-

quired to nominate, prevented t e

immediate selection of Dougins. But in the adjourned convention at Balti- more Douglas easily had the required two thirds. Tho moro recent history of the Democracy lias not furnished so

striking instances of the peculiar work- ings of the two third3 rule as were given in tho davs of Van Buren and Polk. But it is not iuiprobnblo that this con-

vention, before its turmoils shall havo onded, may show the defeat of a candi-

whom f-.lia mninrif-.v nf rialorvnfna

may really want.

DOWN THE MENOMINEE,

log Driving as It is Done in Michigan.

Work of tho Boom Company in Batting Bogs Down to tlio Mills—Monopiy Which Hns Given Satisfaction to Its

Patrons Since 1806.

Menominee, Mich., July 6—The Mono- mineo River Boom company is the largest corporation of its kind in tho world. Previous to 1866 there was great confusion In the handling of logs in the Me- nominee river j»nd there were frequent serious disputes between mill-owners on

account of the crude and unsatisfactory manner in which the logs came down, serious mix-ups being of daily occur- rence. Owing to those crude measures

logs would be delivered at tbe wrong mills, and, as each log-owner was obliged to accept the mill soale or count of logs sawed, there was no end of trouble for the operators. In o rder to seouro a more

satisfaotory service it was decided that a company should bo formed for the purpose of absolutely controlling all the water rights and the handling of logs on the Monominee river and its tributaries. All the leading lumbermen in this section of the state were interested in the venture aud they got together and or-

ganized what has over since been known as tho Monominee River Boom company. The organizers were such well-known operators as Jesse Spalding, Harrison Ludington, Nelson Ludingfion, Daniel Wells, Jr., Abner Kirby, Isaac Stephen- son, Samuel Stephonson, Robert Stoven- son, W. O. Carpenter, /Ely Wright and Robert Hall. Considering the small quantity of logs handled in those early days of tho history of lumbering in Mich- igan and the extent to which tho business grew, it is not probable that the projectors of the company had any idea of the future magnitude or importauoe of the undertaking. IMPROVEMENTS ON THE RIVER.

The work of constructing the dams, as-well as all the other improvements of tho company, was placed under the su-

pervision of Isaac Stephenson, and every improvement since made by the gigantic corporation has boen designed and con- structed under his supervision. The company now has a capital stock of $1,500,000, all of wbioh has been expended in improving the Menominee river and its tributaries with innumerable piers, booms and breakwaters, as well as upward of fifty dams distributed on tbe Menominee, Pike, Sturgeon, Pine. Brule, Paint and Miehigamme rivers and their branches. These improvements have been of incalculable benofit to this section oi the state, by utilizing the waters of tho rivers nnmod for logging purposes and for making available many of the most valuable water powers in tbe country.

Every saw log sawed in Menominee and Marquette or towed out of the liver must be handled by this company, and it is quits impossible for a person who is not somewhat familiar with the logging business to form an idea of tho im nionso amount of business which the company transacts each year. In the lirst place, it has in its employ more than 600 men, who are scattered along the river, and from tho time of its organization in 1866 until 1895 it soaled 8,097,- 928,479 feet of legs. The scale for the last year wus light, aggregating only 274,643,625 foot. The oompany lias soaled upward of 65,000,000 feet in a Bingle year.

MINIMUM COST FOR DRIVING. Its system for handling these immense

quantities of logs has been so perfected that it can do tho work at a less oost

than any other compnny in the world. In 1895 it paid out in wages alono to the men, not including what it cost to feed them, ?123,931.85. Brora the time of its organization to the present there has been paid to its stockholders $1,795,260 in dividends. The officers take great pride in the fact that, while it is the mos$ expensive single employer of labor on the river, never in its history have Its employes gono on a strike, and while of necessity it has hail a monopoly of the business dene in its line, the gervions rendered are so satisfactory that during the last six years out o£ a business aggregating $1,-108,371.71 there has not been a dollar lost or a charge disputed; on the other hand, every dollar due the company has been paid In cash.

RIVER NOW FULL OF LOGS.

It is very interesting to observe the manner in which the logs are handled and brought to the various mills. Today the Menominee river contains apwnrd of 300,000,000 feet of logs, on oyety one of whioh is stamped—on the end with a

hammer and on the side with an ax—

hieroglyphics to designate the owners. These logs were nut into the river last winter, and they represent an outlay of fully $3,000,000.__

AN ATTRACTIVE HOUSE-

The United States in Its Remodelled Con-

dition.

Tho interior of the United States hotel

presents quite a different appearance from what it did a few weess ngo. Since the first of Juno a largo number of

men have been eDgaged in making alter-

ations on the sooend and third floors and

as a result tho rooms, halls, bath rooms

nnd lavatories have been thoroughly renovated nnd supplied with new furni-

ture, bedroom suites, gas fixtures, chandeliers, and a brand new open

plumbing system. The rooms on the second floor are carpeted with Wilton velvet, furnished with oak and cherry, and supplied with arm chairs, divans, electric bells, bath, steam heat, and

everything that tends to the enjoyment and comfort of the guestp.

On the third floor, new woodwork and walls have been put in and three new

sample rooms added. The plumbing work throughout tho hotel is now perfect after an expenditure of $3100. Proprietors Foss and O’Connor have expended $3000 In furniture and $0000 in repairs witbiu the past few weeks. They have been compelled to discontinue the work of renovation until fall on account of the summer traffic which is the lnrgest In the history of the house. About the first of Deoomber, however, work will be com- menced on the upper floors and on the office, reading rooms, lobby, dining rooms and billiard parlors. It is intended to have the office flninhnri in fl liffht delicate color and the desk supplied with brass net work and railings. A large number of new rooms have been placed in use making the hotel the second largest in the city.

TH E CAMPAIGN-

Republicans Will Be in the Campaign Early and Strong in this Begion.

The call for the Republican First Dis- trict oonventlon has been issued, and

will be found in another column of this

paper. In this city the campaign will begin

about Aug. 24, when u rally will beheld, probably at City Hail. There will bo a

large one at Old Orchard. Ever since Mr. Reed has been in Con-

gress it has been his custom to make the final address of the campaign on the Sat- urday evening before election day, the second Monday in September. This time-honored custom will probably be again pursued this year.

The Lincoln Club has just purchased a splendid flag hearing the names of McKinley and’Hobart. It will be the handsomest thing of the kind In the State and will be flung to the breeze some time early next month, when a

formal raising will take place.

Tho rooms were beautifully decorated, the handsome floral designs harmonizing per- fectly in color with the tinted walls.

Th guests were met in the hall by the ushers who are officers of the church and pariah,{Messrs. Charles Cook, B. M. Edwards, G. W. Simonton, H. W.(Shay- lor. Geo. F. West, James C. White, J. F. Chute and Charles S. Chase who intro- duced them to Dr. and Mrs. Fenn and Mr.and Mrs. Marks. For two hours there was a constant stream of prominent citl- zons, ladies and gentlemen, not only members of High street church and parish, but very many friends iu other de- nominations who were anxious to show thoir regard nnd esteem not only for the dootor and his wife but also for the host and hostess. Among the many present were noticed Judge and Mrs. Webb of the United States Diatriot court, Judge Haskell and Mrs. Haskell of the supremo court. Judge Peabody of the probate oourt, the members of the Fraternity club, that inoludes most of the best known literary men of the city, Collector Deering, the pastors of the different churches, President Payson of the Young Men’s Christian association. To give a

complete list would be to exhaust the literary nnd sooiul life of the city or as

many of its members as are still in town. In the dining room Mrs. J. C. White of

the Preble house served punch, Mrs. Franoes S. Twitobell, ice cream and Mrs. Charles B. Bailey of Washington, D. C., daughter of the late Beacon Bewail C. Chase, of High streot, Russian tea, as-

sisted by the young ladieB of the Social circle.

Regrets were received from Hon. W. W. Thomas, Dr. and Mrs. Gerrish, Chaa A. Brown, Esq., Hon. George P.Wescott. Sidney VV. Thuxter, Esq., and many ap- preciative notes from absent friends of which we publish these two:

88 Park Street, June 30, 1891. My Dear Mr. Marks—It would give me

very ureat pleasure to bo present at the meeting next Sunday evening to which Dr. Fenn has kindly invited mo and also at the reception which Mrs. Marks and yourself tender him on the evening of July 8.

My plans for my summer vacation, decided upon some time ago, will not allow me to be with you and Dr. F’eiin. I start for Bethlehem, N. H., tomorrow morning. I shall be with you and my honored friend Dr. Fenn in the spirit next Sunday and Wednesday evenings. I extend to him, te you and your wife and your parish my wannest fraternal congratulations.

Very oordially yours. HENRY BLANCHARD.

16 Cumberland Street, Boston, MasB., June 4, 1896.

My Dear Mr. Marks—Mrs. Pickard and I are much pleaged to be remembered among the multitude of friends of your loved paster. I regret that we cannot be in Portland on the occasion of the interesting anniversary to be celebrated July 8.

I did not realize how much I admired and loveii Dr. Fonu until I left Portland and missed the occasional meetings which always had a peculiar charm for me. I Cud that the thought of Portland brings him to mind as one of the institutions of tbo city. May he ornament, dig- nify and sweeten the life of Portland for mauy years to come.

Very truly yours, S. T. PICKARD.

MR. AND MRS. STANDISH-

The North Anson Elopement Develops In-

to a Romance of Another Kind.

Lin Standish, the Portland man whom Miss Corn Donnelly of elopement fame is introducing to her friends in North Anson' as her husband, is Miles Standish, a printer well known in this city.

Stand iBh is a widower, his wife having died several months ago. Miss Donnelly boarded with Mrs. Lou Standish, mother of Miles while she was attending Gray’s business college, and it was there her

presont husband met her and fell in love with her.

According to a story sent out from North Anson to tbo Lewiston Journal, she confessed to him her en-

tanglement with Collins and he evidently sympathized in a large hearted way difficult to understand. The girl says that she did not go to Boston in Ben Collins’s oompany, hut arranged to meet him here. She did not go further than Massachusetts where she says she has a

grandmother in Marblehead. When she got away and realized what she bad done she beoame repentant.

When Miss Donnelly two weeks ago took the train from Portland to join Collins as she says, Standish aeoompanied her to the station and the girl told him what she intended to do. She promlsod to write if she fell into distress or broke with Collins.

Previously Standish had helped her in her meetings with Collins when the latter had come to Portland to sea her during the month she was in school. He had accompanied her to the place of meeting and remained outside to esoort her homo, thus evading suspicion among her friends. After deciding to leave Collins, Miss Donley says sho wrote to Standish and he at odco joined her in Boston. Then they were married and came brave- ly home to North Anson to settle all stories and make explanations.

She says that she really loves her husband and that the affection for Collins was only an infatuation. Mr. and Mrs. Standish will return to Port- land and reside here. It is said Collins will return before long.

Standish was generally regarded in Portland as an industrious and olean sort o' a fellow.

He worked in Thurston’s and several of the printing houses on Exdbaugo street.

and August five days and a half in each week is all the time people need fc shopping, and that the other half-day is better spent in recreation.

If you think SO too, help make early closing in the Summer permaner by doing your shopping early in the week.

Till September, at least, we shall make Friday a very interesting da for bargain-hunters and money-savers. We begin this Friday.

NIGHT GOWNS FOR FRIDAY. One manufacturer in New York

makes nothing but Night Gowns. He devotes all his energy and time and

thought to Night Gowns. That is why his are the best that we ever saw.

They are longer and fuller and the sleeves are bigger than other Night Gowns and there are other good points about them that you will appreciate.

We buy Night Gowns of this manufacturer right along and if you have bought one of us lately at from $1.00 to $2.00 that you considered particularly good it very likely was his make.

The other day we bought this manufacturer's sample Night Gowns. We had enough before and did not need more, but the price was very low and the gowns were good so we took them.

'There were about Five Hundred Night Gowns in the lot, and although they are such good Gowns and so

cheap we did not buy them to keep but to sell, and sell quickly. On a large lot like this “Low Price”is the only

reliable quick mover, so we shall b satisfied with a small profit and yoi practical appreciation of our Musli Underwear Dept, as the best place t

buy Underwear always.

We shall put this lot of Nigt Gowns on sale Friday mornin as follows:

PQ 123 Night Gown

OSJ Li So I of various styles—m more than two or thre

alike—all new, this Spring styles—rej ular prices $1.00, 1 25— in the sale ;

69 cents each.

195 Night Gown blw 9 —nearly a.11 different-

this lot mostly of Carr brie, with all kinds of trimming—rej ular prices $1.25, 1.50 and 1.75— i

this sale at 98 cents each.

The balance of the lot are high er priced Gowns, some that sell usua

ly as high as $7.00. They will b marked at fiom $1.25 to 5.00, an

will all be bargains.

Tne Flower Mission.

To the Editor of the Press: The committee of the bruit and i'lower

Mission And it neccssury to further appeal to its friends for help in oarrying ou

the present season’s work, for the reason that so far the supply of fruit aud flowers has been unequal to the demand. Plans are weekly mude to visit our hospitals and institutional bouses carrying to each resident flowers beautiful and bright and also into the homes where there is sickness and poverty. A bit of jelly or a saucer of fruit with a daintily arranged bunch of flowers supplemented with a oheery word of greeting.

Now i* the season of roses and many choice variety of flowers. The people to whom these are uo rarity cannot realize what a delight they are'to those who are

unable to get them. We are sure that the little incident that came under the writer’s observation will appeal to one’s sympathies and its recital will be no

breach of trust for the genuine touch of nature makes us ail akin. On a recent flower Thursday the bouquets were com-

posed mostly of Held flowers with the ex-

ception of u few that were blessed above their fellows in each having two magnificent carnation pinks which had been sent

by a well known florist. And rather in- congruous did they look too, their dain- ty and aristocratic suggestiveness seem-

ing a bit out of place among the plebian daisies and buttercups.

When they had been carried to their destination it was found that the,number of bouquets containing the coveted prizes was alarmingly small although their fortunate possessors were so generous as to pass them from one to another that all might be ou equal footing temporarily. It was found that one person, blind, cold and infirm, with the lock of patient yearning often seen on the faces of the blind, and who stood apart from the rest was turning his flowers from side to side, trying in vain to seek lor the traatureu flowers. Instantly they wero taken from him with the exclamation, “1 d6°iareI Mr. -hoin’t got no pinkM at all in hie bouquet. Hero let's change. You shall huvo mine. Here's a big beauty right here, and here’s another right along side of it,” placing the poor old Ungers upon them with a tender graoe. The old man lifted them to his face and said with a

touohing fervor, “Ain’t they beautiful. O, ain’t they?”

This case is not an isolated one. We wish it were possible for the owners of our beautiful gardens aud conservatories to go with our “flower missionaries” on

their weekly rounds and see what the mission of the flowers mentis to those who need their ministries. And in this connection the uoinmittee would ask for mere helpers among the young girls. There are many circles of Kings' Daugh- ters aud Junior Christian wndeavorers mwl ll'I .corlin d'ininl.ius uritnoo

members ara Deeding just such work as

this and whom the Flower Mission needs A young girl iron; 12 to IB years of age brings into a sick room or into the ward oi one of our hospitals an abundance of bright cheer as she passes from bed to bed with the sweet flowers which teach of tha lovo and purity uf God who made thorn. As is known the rooms of the misson, 3(5 Oak street, are open from T o’clock every Thursday morning to 11 o’clock a. in. We invite every one to visit them oven if they have no flowers for they will repay one for the visit. Any oon;muni(*tion regarding the work will receive a prompt reply if sent to “Flower Mission’ ,549Cumberland street, Portland. Flowers from the country are

solicited. In previous years many flowers have come over the railroads the ex-

press charges of which are settled by us. m. e. a

A Portland Man in Kansas and Arkansas.

Mr. Frank S. Waterhouse, who has been absent in Kansas and Arkansas for fchu year past, has returned heme for the summer in improved health. Mr. Wat- erhouse thinks that Kansas will come

out Republican in the national contest. He says a number of the Kansus farmers who wore in debt have paid up a good part of it, and, while they are not pleased with the prospect, still they will probably stay with the party. There are

but few Democrats in the State, but they are, for the most part, gold Democrats. There are lots of Populists, and these are chiefly the men who hare uot paid off any of their debts, and when they as-

certain that they can get but three dollars a hundred weight for their ohoice bogs they are thoroughly disgusted.

In Arkansas the people are free silver all through, but they are fortunate in a

very Draiuy leader, Senator Jones of that State. Arkansas, however, was always a De mocratic State.

Disease is like a

railroad train. It has a regular way of coming and going and keeps on stead- ily along a certain track. You can almost always tell how a disease starts, and where it will probably end. It won’t go out of its way to oblige you any more than a locomo- tive will. Disease usually begins when the appetite gives out—that’s the first warning whistle. Them the stomach and nutritive organa fail to supply good blood. The circulation grows poor, thin

end tainted. Instead of oarryingnourishment to the different parts of the body it carries poison, which settles at some point and eats

away the tissues. According to where it settles it is called liver or kidney or skin disease—scrofula, erysipelas, eczema, or con-

sumption if it settles on the lungs. .It is all one trouble : tainted blood ; clear out this taint and build up the tissues with rich blood and the disease fit stopped; side- tracked ; it can't go any further. No matter what the name of a disease is if it’s a blood disease, Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis- covery will cure it by driving the poison out of the circulation and creating a new supply of healthy, red, life-giving blood to re- rive and nourish the wasted tissues. It puts the digestion in order, invigorates the blood making organs and builds Airra healthy flesh. Consumption is a Brood- disease. Don’t believe ft can’t be cured! It is cured every day by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery.

Diar Sir:—l cannot say enough for your Gol- den Medical Discovery.” Fa; two vears my little boy suffered with lung trouble—first taking la- grippe; second intermittent fever; third, lung trouble. For two years he coughed. The physician could do no good and I thought he must die. I was told to try Dr. Pierce's Golden Med- ical Discovery. I did, and before he had taken one bottle lie began to mend and could eat a little. When be had taken four bottles he was well and now is as stout as before.

print more than 3,000?” Ans. “Not more than 20 over.” .Customer: “We had 250 of yours left over.” Natural de- duction: the other fellow gave short count. That’s the kind of competition that makes friends for us. He cheated the customer out of nearly 10 per cent,

PLANS FOR THE ELEVATOR, _

A Chicago Contractor Looks Oxer the Grand Trunk Property for a Site.

The Work On the Big Grain Elevator of

This Road Will Probably Be Com-

menced at Once—Something About the

Work Which Will Have to Be Done.

The big grain elevator which the Grand Trunk Railway proposes to build is sure to be oommenoud in a few weeks.

Yesterday a Mr. Metcalf of Chloago, a

contractor who make a speoiaity of building grain elevators and who has designed and oonstruoted the largest elevators of Chicago and St. Louis, was in the oity at the request of General Manager Hays of the Grand Trunk to look over the ground and make estimates and plans for the erection of the proposed elevator ■r.# -1. -4-_1

After mnking a very careful survey of the Grand Trunk property and wharves, taxing.the depth of water, the number of piles which will be required, eto., Mr. Metcalf decided that the best location of the big elevator would be in the rear of No. 6 wharf.

Here it will be neoessary to excavate 85 feet,drive down a large number of spiles, and build,on stop ofijthem a granite foun- dation on wbioh the elevator will be con-

structed of wood with an Iron frame work. It will be about 150 feet long by 00 feet wide and will be 165 feet high and sheathed without with iorn. B

The capaoity of the elevator will be about 1,500,000 bushels. It is proposed to get to work excavating for'the founda- tion of tbe elevator, if Mr. Metoalf’s plans are accepted, in’the oourse of two or throe weeks and the work will be pushed to .completion as rapidly as possible. The cost of the building, Mr. Metcalf says, cannot as yet be estimated, but be hopes to have the building com-

pleted, if bis plans are accepted, by tbe middle of next November.

It will be necessary, if the elevator Is looated at the point Indicated by Mr. Metcalf, to move baok the track of tbe Grand Trunk road nearest the wharf and build them around the building and thence oat onto tbe pier. The grain will be carried to the vessels lying at the wharf by means of carriers and loaded rapidly and easily. The wharf begin which the elevator will probably be built will be when the new extension is completed over 500 feet long and large enough to aooommodate the biggest steamship ooiufortably. Undoubtedy the big elevator here will bring lots of tramp steamers and vessels to this port to load with grain for foreign ocuntries.

It is not yet known whether Mr. Metcalf's plans as given above will be ao-

oepted by the Grand Trunk offioials but there is little doubt but they will be and this work will Immediately be com-

menced on the construction of the new

elevator.
