Platform of the New Party—lIts — manent Organization. “aes CuHIcaGo, July 6.—At the afternoon ses- sion ot the National convention of anti- monopolists, yesterday, the following plat- form was submitted by the committee on resolutions and platform; It is the duty of the government to regu- late transportation, prescribing both mini- mum and maximum charges, preventing pooling and other like combinations and dis- criminating between towns and individuals, and the consolidation of competing lines, thus protecting the corporations in Their le- gal rights and the people from extortionate charges. A postal telegraph system is demanded by every interest in the country, to be operated by the postal department. It is the duty of congress to declare for- feited all lands not equitably earned by con- struction of the designed railroads within the time prescribed by the law for com- pletion, and restore the same to the public domain for the benefit of actual settlers, and all public lands shall be reserved for the use of actual settlers. We view with alarm the acquirement of lands in the United States by n-resident foreigners, and we favor such changes of the laws as will prevent the own- ership of any part of our soil by any except residents, We oppose the issue and control of the currency by banks which now enjoy the special privilege of charging interest upon their own promises to pay. We favor the cbin- age of gold and silver, and we demand that the volume yf money be carefully restricted by law. We demand that the national bank- ing system be abolished and the national bonds be paid off as speedily as possible. We demand the establishment of a gradu- ated income tax. Postal savings banks should be established that the people may have a safe depository. The patent laws should be so amended as to protect inventors. All public officials, in- cluding the president and vice-president shall be elected by a direct vote of the people. Congress has no authority to tax the peo- ple except for the purpose of raising neces- sary revenue, and in framing tariff laws that object should be kept in view. We denounce the present tariff as being whollyin the in- terest of monopoly and demand that it be speedily and radically reformed and free trade established. D. M. Clark of Iowa offered a minority re- port demanding equal suffrage rights for wo- men. After some discussion and a speech by Mrs. Todd, the convention adopted a sub- stitute that the women’s suffrage convention was one which the people of each state should pass upon.

NORRISTOWN, PA., July 6.—Instead of clearing up the mysterious murder by strangulation of Mrs. James Jack yesterday morning at one o’clock, the developments to- day only deepen the mystery. The coroner’s inquest continued its session and heard the testimony of Dr. Eisenberg, the coroner’s physician, who, ln company with Dr. Wm. Carson and Dr. N. S. Wiley, made a post- mortem examination. The injuries they concluded were made with the fist or a blunt instrument. The testimony shows that at about eleven o’clock on Tuesday morning James Jack, the husband of the murdered woman, and Alfred Harvey, a neighbor who is under arrest for the murder, were drinking at Jack’s house, James Pye swore that between ten and eleven o’clock he drank beer at JACK’S HOUSE, and that Mrs. Jack drank some, too. Alfred Harvey swore that Charles Earnest, the former landlord of Jack, anda well known and respected citizen, was with them drinx- ing. This Earnest positively denies and claims that he can prove that he and his counsel, H. M. Brunner, were attending proceedings in bankruptcy in the United States court in Philadelphia. Harvey atleges that he told Jack to get his wife down, stairs and take a drink. Jack said his wife was sick, and that they should go up stairs. Harvey and Jack went up stairs and found her lying on the bed and very sick. Atnight, Jack la on the floor, at the foot of his wife's Jack testified that in the afternoon he fouud a bottle of whisky up stairs in a closet. THE BOTTLE W ARTLY FULL, and he and Harvey e it.
