Single Gold Standard Financial Plank That Was Dic- tated by Wall Street Adopted by the Convention. The silver men have bolted. Senator Cannon of Utah went first and the delegations from six States, including Sena- tors Teller and Dubois followed. The goldbugs hooted and jeéred. After Foraker read the report of the gold- bug majority of the Committee on Resolu- tions, Senator Teller rose like a magnificent giant and towering high above the vast concourse of delegates, he presented to the convention the protest of the free silver States. | Every eve was directed steadily at the Colorado statesman as he read, in a voice that rose clear and distinct above the buzz of whispering in the galleries. When he had finished the protest that had been prepared the night before by himself and other silver States delegates, Senator Teller laid down the typewritten manuscript, j ‘wiped the beads of perspiration from his brow, and then in tones so clear and meas- ured that they penetrated to the furthest corner of the hall, he made one final, im- passioned appeal in behalf of the great mining States of the far West. The weight of the corporation load it is carrying is making this convention sway- backed. A log, water soaked, makes slow + progress’ even in turgid waters. And 80 with this convention, ostensibly representing the people, really belonging to and owned by the bond dealers and money The total absence of | sustained enthusiasm — ce ae 1 hand has boon characteristic of the body of delegates. They lack zest for the-work.

Early arrivals were few. Distinguished men postponed their coming until the last minute. Delegations of whole blocks of States were tardy in coming. There was no incentive to be on the scene. The machine was carrying out to the let- ter its deal with capital. Men who delight ip a fight for principle and the victory of the best man knew that everything was planned to run in a narrow groove. The slightest intimation of a departure from blocked out lines was frowned upon | by bosses, | Mark Hanna, the new boss, was in turn controlled by his masters, the real owners of the convention. As they were pleased or displeased with the work, so was their sentiment reflected in Hanna’s attitude. After 9 o’clock claquers begin to come. The galleries are filling with McKinley ser- vitors who are to follow the cue to come from corporation headquarters. On the floor a dozen delegates, represent- ing nearly as many States, are looking disconsolate and sad-eyed. Around the platform clusters a group of convention manipulators working under orders, Thurston, Grosvenor, Bushnell, General Harry Bingham, Scott of West Virginia, Herrick, the banker, Pillsbury, the miller who wants reciprocity—that’s a group worth looking over. It represents fairly well the power behind the throne. Analyse ‘the interests repre- sented. Glance again over the group. The railroad interests—Thurston; the pro- tected manufacturers, whose dollars poured into Mark Hanna’s moleskin for the Mc- Kinley campaign—Bingham; the great coal and mining interests—Scott; the millionaire bankers and plutocrats of Wall street—Her- rick, the Hanna mouthpiece.

Yet, these delegates from Colorado, Utah, Montana, South Da- kota and Nevada, are looked upon with respectful appreciation by the boss-ruled men from the East. If these men were free, they would join them. But the iron rod of the boss holds them in fear. The shackles of Wall street are firmly riveted. It is now néarly 10 o’clock. Only the Key- stone State is fully represented on the floor. The followers of Quay who, on Wednesday, asserted their partial independence by re- fusing to vote with the machine on the con- test cases, is in line. Senator Quay and Governor Hastings are with them. The Senator is looking fresh. His presidential boom is still enough alive to hold 50 votes for him. Burly Chris Magee, Quay’s bitter enemy in Pittsbirg, is given a cold stare as he sits down. Dave Martin comes next. He has been turned down again by Quay 9 the National Com- mittee. Ohio is beginning to occupy its seats in the front row. The big men are still delaying their com- ing. Massachusetts and Maine are together. They stand for Reed and gold, and while members of the corporate trust, are yet independent members, 8 Gen. Lew Wallace and J. N. Thurston of Indiana came in together. The author of Ben Hur” shakes hands with Uncle Dick Thompson, the veteran of veterans. } Illinois comes to the front with its big four. ‘They are either not recognized or the factotums. were not told to applaud them.

The conflicting factions from New York are seated without a cheer for either side. From the galleries the spectators look down upon a ground floor of faces moving about purposelessly and without life. It is now 10 minutes past the time for opening. Not a cheer, not a handclap. Not a shout for McKinley, Reed, Morton, Quay or the general good of the cause. Whoever saw before in a national con- vention such stupid apathy? It marks the triumph of capital over party principle, What is there to applaud? Did the deal with Wall street include applause? If it did it is not getting the worth of its money from this convention. When Mark Hanna comes he is all bustle and energy. He confers with chairmen of delegations and gets the latest information. There is trouble in two or three States. He undertakes to straighten it out. His red face glows like a carriage lamp in the dusk, He nods his bullet head 1 as he gives orders. From right to left he goes. The McKinley men are apprehensive. The silver men may cause them trouble yet. So in the confusion and turmoil as the delegates crowd and push, Hanna the dic- tator, does his work. A weak-voiced glee club from Ohio— The man with the fog horn voice gives them the „view hallo” from the south gallery. Still the crowd up above the delegates is not getting a fair show for its entrance As yet not a money. | There is nothing but dullness on the floor in spite of the busy efforts of Hanna. Around Henry Cabot Lodge gathers a group of Reed men.

Capital is to win. When the sell-out was made by the Mc- Kinley managers to the Eastern plutocracy, the independent spirits of the West could not be included. Theiy convictions were too firmly fixed to be swept away in a night. The domination of capital overshadowing all things else could not get its grip on them. Free men they came to St. Louis and free men they intend to go away. As the crisis approached to-day the apa - thy in the 900 men on the floor was scat- tered. ang Nervous tension supplanted it. ‘Within thirty minutes after the fall of the gavel in- terest was intense. As Chairman Thurston recognizes Sena- tor-elect Foraker to present the platform, the first wave of applause rolls over the hall. ? The McKinley men, aided by claquers, make a mighty effort to force an ova- tion. It will not come. The intellectual giant of the Buckeye . crowd is greeted warmly, but it is not an ovation. Could McKinley himself wrest it from this cold crowd? Senator-elect Foraker is training for first place on the Republican ticket in 1900.. His friends cound on his work in this convention to give him a long lead in the race, As he stands before the tremendous crowd in Convention Hall and reads the platform of Wall Street and the tariff barons, 30,000 eyes study him critically.. Fifteen thousand persons mark me personality of the man. Foraker is the strongest man who has yet come before the convention.

But he is not the man of the hour. While Allison is not an enemy of cor- porations, he is not-owned by them. The protected manufacturers who pour into McKinley’s willing hands vast sums of money to buy up this convention do not like Allison. He would not surrender all his principle. He would not sign blank papers of sale, | the claims to be put in by Wall street.

We hear much of the ‘sordid considerations of capital,“ ‘employment,’ ‘industrial energies’ and ‘prosperous labor.’ The United States differing from the medieval conditions which fevers older oountries, differing from the militarism which is the curse of Euro- pean mations, differing from thrones which rest upon the sword, is pre-eminently and patriotically a commercial and business na+ tion.

WARNER MILLER. HANNA'IS HOPEFUL. The New Boss Takes Apathy as a Good Sign. The quiet and good-natured way in which the convention proceeded Wednesday dem- onstrates that the party is united for a great victory this fall for McKinley. The platform, I believe, will be acceptable to every good citizen and patriotic American and to every business man. ; MARK HANNA. LODGE’S GREAT VICTORY.

The conviction ot his sincerity was ac- knowledged by his enemies—the trusts. Applause was generally showered be- tween the periods of his plea for silver. Speakers before him had been given at- tention perforce. Senator Teller commanded it by his pres- ence, his earnestness, his dramatic deliv- ery. f Even men who follow the lead of the cap- italistic powers were compelled to give grudging recognition of his power, As Senator Teller sold the tariff barons and the united trusis that this was the first treat gathering of the Republican party which admitted its inability to control the affairs of the country, the first genuine outburst of applause recorded in this con- trict the lone silver man. The Union Pacific voted its 16 votes in Nebraska solid for gold. In North Carolina Senator Jeter C. Pritch- ard led the revolt against Wall street, carry- ing 14% votes for silver. M. L. Mott, the silver leader, followed him. : | North Dakota followed its instructions for the single stancard. Senator Pettigrew of South Dakota chal- lenged the votes of his State and voted for silver. : Zachary Taylor of Tennessee, who is to make the race for Congress in the Mem- phis district, against Josiah Patterson, the Democratic gold bug, stood up to be count- ed as the one man from the State who was for the white metal. ; Long dnn the roll call was completed, the absolute control of the machine was as- shouters. When Mrs. Carson Lake raised a white sunshade in Convention Hall in the open- ing session and waved it wildly for Blame, it was twenty-three minutes by the watch before McKinley could regain control. What a difference four years later! The longest wave of applause has lasted perhaps a minute. That is a fair instance of the difference — spirit and temper of the two conven- ons. As the roll call ‘proceeded on the tion to divide on the financial plank, waned. Every one wanted to see the platform adopted, so that the Western men could make good thelr word. It would come as a relief from the mo- notony of the convention. „The vote was 103% for and 812% against. — the platform was adopted with a whoop, Senator Cannon of Utah, the 8 Senator in the ‘Millionaires’ Club“ Washington, was recogn on a ——— of personal privilege. Necks were craned forward and the thousands gave strained attention to the young Senator. It was accepted as the coming of the bolt. On the platform with him was Senator 283 teresting period—the nominating of candi- dates for the Presidency. CONVENTION PROCEEDINGS. Senator Foraker Read the Platform Declaring Against Silver. 18.—The third and probably the last day of the convention began at 10:3, when, in response to the gavel’s rap, the delegates arose for the prayer. The officiating minister. was Dr. John R. Scott of Jacksonville, Fla., the second colored pastor who has conducted the de- votional prelude, Although Dr. Scott’s voice was a strong one, so great was the confu- sion ot entering delegations and spectators, it could be told only from the movement of the minister's lips that he was praying. Then the first opportunity for the dele- gates to use their voices, fresh after a night’s rest, was afforded when Chairman Thurston, without any preliminaries plunged into business by a@mnouncing that the first thing on the programme was the report of the Committee on Resolutions, and called for “Senator-Elect Joseph B.

A DARK PLATFORM. Mr. Stevens, a colored delegate from Alabama, was interviewed by a corre- epondent of the New York Evening Post to the financial plank of the St. Louis platform. Mr. Stevens thinks, or did think, thus: We ought to have a fat-ramifying employ- ment of the mineral wealth of our argent Occident so far as is consistent with con- ecientiqus regard for ultimate Valuations nd. cd-ordinant circumstances basically _ @onsidered and gently, but firmly treated. r. Stevens was not satisfactory to the t in. that expression, Afterwards, aided by a full „ however, he voted in the negro caucus Tor the inser ‘en of the word “gold”. in the platform.“ Doubtless the Post now looks upon hini as a statesman. and patriot. But what 18 there in the original Stev- ens platform the gold standard party cannot accept? Do they object to ulti- mate valuations?” Certainly not.

In making an appeal of this kind to the that they Rave merely wasted their time. — - — ͤ — — — The tears shed by Senator Cannon and others at the sesslon of the Platform Committee were wasted. The men and the influences chat controlled that ¢om- mittee know nothing of sentiment in polities. , Just after the war? when the gullible Republicans of thy West were effervesc- ing with. patriotic fervor and regarding their party as a sort of church ald its doctrines as a creed, your thrifty New Englander —— smiling cynically to him- self at such indifference to the main chance, and while Westerners. were shout- ing, he was shaping the legislation of the country so as to enrich the already. rich East and to impéverish all other sections of the ¢dtntry. He ts engaged in the same business now. He was on the Platform Committee here in St. Louis for: precisely the same purpose that actuated him twenty years ago and has actuated him ever since. He looks upon his party as an instru- ment for filling his pocket. Beyond doubt he regarded Cannon’s tears as a silly exhibition of weak sentimentalism. Unlike the celebrated Flanagan of vention never tells in so many words what he is there for. But when you. watch his work and the way he does it, you have no difficulty in discovering it. A protective tariff has piled up the wealth of the country in the East and stripped the West bare. The single gold standard will complete the process of sKinhing. While the West weeps, your Basterner will return home with the self- satisfaction of having gotten all he cares for in politics. EARTHQUAKE IN JAPAN. An earthquake that destroys a thou- sand human lives is now regarded as an overwhelming seismic disaster. The con- vulsions in Japan are attended with greater loss of life than any that have occurred since the early part of the cen- tury, when earthquakes were not only geography of parte of the Mississippi Valley was changed, and the city of Car- accas, in South America, Was practically destroyed. The greatest en of modern times occurred at Lisbon in 1755. It was accomparifed by A tidal wave and 40, 000 elements subsided. Most of Japan is of voleanic formation, and the island where this_ earthquake occurred is detted with active and ex- tinct volcafioes, Such portions of the earth’s surface are subject to violent shocks at frequent intervals, and it is likely that the estimate of one thousand lives is under rather than over the actual figures. It is r*s-ible that the mortality. may have run into thousands. — D — 8 — —- . * THE ‘REPUDIATION” BOd ET. The charge of attempted “repudiation” 7 ‘gold standard organs against the West- ern and Southern States. It is a varia- tion of the charge of “dishonesty,” and is made in equally bad faith and with no better show of reason. Free silver Dem- ocrats spurn these charges as false. They intend to repudiate no debts and feel that the implication of dishonesty is an insult. An Oregon correspondent, who says he is a 16 to 1 Democrat, and ought to know better, urges that it would donen- late and hold the vote of a great mass ot “common-sense business people, 5 plank should be inserted in the Demo- cratic platform at Chicago pledging the party against “repudiation.” He sirgs gests the following: vate gold debts in gold, or else at their gold value in sifver, if there should be any pre- mium, which shall be ascertained by law in a safe and just manner; but we oppose all future speciel gold contracts as con- trary to public policy. Free silver Democrats are not asking nor expecting to pay private debts spe- cially contracted to be paid in gold ex- cept in gold. If stich a plank were in- serted in a national. party platform, it could have no effect upon contracts, which the courts would enforce without. regard te political platforms. Nor would Congress pass a law that would impair euch contracts, Such a law would be unconstitutional,.

LONGSTREET GAVE PROOF THAT THE WAR IS OVER. FRED AND-ULYSSES POPULAR. Sons of the Old Commander Are Being Lionized and Have Booms for Second Place. A symptom of the healing of old wounds is a little episode that occurred Wednesday night. Col. Fred Grant and Gen. Longstreet, the grizzled Confederate leader, walked arm! arm out of the Lindell Hotel and attended a social function together. They laughed and chatted as they went— the son of the great Federal leader and the old war horse of the Confederacy. The spectators looked on in wonderment, but had no criticism to make, for they thought that it was good and pleasant for brethren to dwell together in unity. Col. Fred Grant and his younger brother, Ulysses. S. Grant. are attending the conven- tion, and are the observed of all observers wherever they go. Among the rank and file of the older Re- publicans there is an undying affection for the Old Commander. They never forego an opportunity to show their respect for the memory of the man who led mem to martial and political victory, so it is not surprising that the two “Grant boys,“ as they are affectionately called, have been the recipients of marked attention since their arrival in St. Louis. Veterans who followed the General's colors through many a thick and bloody fight struggle through dense crowds in the hotel lobbies to grasp the hand of ohe or the other of his sons. This homage is unsough by the brothers, for twe more modest and unassuming men are not in attendance at the convention. Their resemblance to their father is so striking that they are known wherever er go and cannot es the greetings whic are showered upon them from all sides. Though neither of the boys“ has ever taken a conspicuous part in —— poli- tics, both are prominently mentioned as candidates for the Vice-Presidency. Both are 8 sons— Ulysses, of California, and Fred, of New York. With characteristic modesty neither of them is making an active canvass for the place, te —— on cts of either are con- 3 ose of any of the others e fi — Rearag t about them is their self- sacrificing dispostion. Bach contends that he is not a Vice-Presidential pamsibility, but that his brother is and would make a strong candidate. gh the brothers are strikingly alike in their resemblance to their distinguished father, they are very different in their dis- positions and inclinations Grant inherited much of his father’s martial spirit and strategic ability. He was born on the old Dent farm just outside of St. Louis in May, 1850. Much of his early life was spent in Galena, III., where his father embarked in the leather business and earned the name of The Tan- ner,“ which stuck to him all his life. * At the 8 of the war Fred was only 3 small boy. e had all of the small boy's as hting instinct and accompanied his father through, the war. He went through the Vicksburg campaign not as a hanger-on about his father’s camp, for he marched, slept and ate with the soldiers. He co nat be 22822 to a his 8 1 because, he e soldiers * than —. neral. v was dur the Vicksburg campaign that he caused his father more anxiety than the enemy could have done. At Milliken’s Bend he wen? to slee, e Aunboat on which his father was making his way down the river. en the boat was abandened — f thought e of the boy anh he was left Gen. Grant was miles away when he heard that Fred was missing. He turned back at once in the face of his enemy, made — way to the boat 2 — boy, Chicago in May, 1874. He has two children, A daughter, Julia, aged 2, and a son, Ulysses, who will be 15 years old July 4 next. Col. Grant was the principal editor of his father’s memoirs, being assisted in the work by his brothers Ulysses and Jesse. He was Minister to Austria under Harri- son. He ran for Lieutenant-Governor of New York in 1887 and was defeated. He played an important part in the Lexow movement, and he was recently reap- — ney a Police Commissioner by Mayor 8 of New York. Grant is a man of striking personal RN omg He is the tallest of the Grant family. His height is 5 feet 10 inches. He is broad-shouldered and deep-chested, though rather spare of build. He wears a dark beard, W * on ardor gi his striking resemblance to his f Ulysses S. Grant, * California’ s favorite for second place on the National ticket, is two years younger than Col. Fred. "He was born at Bethel, O., July 22, 1852. He early showed a studious bent and was sent to Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hamp- shire. e graduated in and entered Harvard at once, where he graduated in 1874. In 1876 he was admitte to the bar as a graduate of the Columbia Law School of New York. He practiced his profession only a short time, for he was lucky enough to secure a wealthy wife in the person of Miss Fannie Chaffee, daughter of Senator Cnaffee, of Colorado. He was the Grant of the firm of Grant & Ward, and lost heavily when the firm went under, Until three years ago he lived on the Merriwether farm at Westchester, N. . He now claims San Diego, Cal., as his home, though he lives just outside the city on a farm. He has five children, three girls and.two boys: Miriam, 14; Chaffee, 12; Julia Dent,.11; Fannie, 6; and Ulysses, 3. His resemblance to his father is even more striking than of his brother.⸗ His beard is very closely cropped and turning gray. His dark hair covers a forehead exactly like the General’s. The nose and mouth are the same. He is stout of build, as was his father. He ia rather quick of "speech, much more so than Col. Fred. He is very modest and prefers to speak of his brother than of himself. In conversation with a Post-Dispatch re- porter he Said: “This is my first appearance in politics and I think it will be my last. My friends in California insisted on sending me here and of course I came, but I am no politician. I stand firmly on the California platform, McKinley, silver and protection. I was a free silver man in New York, though I have 1 been 4 rabid exponent of the silver a My brother is a gold man, though not an extremist, as he was one of the original Eastern bimetallists. ny: Mr. Grant alluded to Me Grant & Ward failure as miserable and deplorable.

It Was a Bedraggled Lot of Marchers, Lacking Unity, and Awakening No Enthusiasm. * Neither the bands nor the beer could stir the MeKinloy parade last night into a sem- blance of thusicsm. It was an utter fail- ure—a pitiful spectacle in the interest of a man who, Mark Hanna would have you be- lieve, is the idol of the people. t was in keeping with the entire conven- tion. A parade of McKinley men was or- dered by the boss. Therefore there was one. The clubs turned out, trudged almost sol- emnly through the streets in scattered, dis- orderly bands and went home. It wes pitiful. The red fire burned as brightly as in campaigns of old, but. tha was all. There was not one prolonge cheer from ether the marchers or the oo ple. The name of the hidden god at ton wos on their lips, but not in their d There was no wild spirit of *. to a personaiity of great magnetism. When they cheered it was from a sense of duty and not because they could not help it. And the rain made it all the worse by far. Hanna cannot control the heavens, and last night they spit at him in very disgust of his great machine of gold. What little cheer there might have been, died down as the rain drops fell, like & feeble fire in the open. The bands played as best they might, while the musicians slipped and stumbled on the Wet granite blocks, but there was no soul in the music. A pall stretched out over the town, held in place like a blanket by the fat hand of Hanna in the second story of the Southern Hotel. The saloons were filled. Hundreds of men stood at the bars with their red Mc- Kinley badges displayed on their chests, and dr. “ough ta have made a wake a carnival, ul wen the procession came by they scarcely murmured. “The red fire saved it from becoming funereal. It was a McKinley crowd that lined the streets. The army of Ohioans were on hand to ‘swell the McKinley chorus, but here and there a bunch of Reed rooters made more noise and displayed more life than the McKinleyites could muster in a dozen blocks. Their cheers had the real rin A them. s procession was poorly managed. The clubs that were expected to march in it were ordered to form at Twelfth street, but some of them were late and had little processions of their own. The Wisconsin Club, with a sycophantic transparency, declaring that it was the first State in the Union to declare for McKinley, went tramping south on Broadway while the main body straggled north on the other side of the street car tracks. It was actually funny. There were four bodies of men in the pro- cession that looked fit for anything like a demonstration. These were the mounted police of neg city, the Blaine Club of Cin- cinpati the Tippecanoe Club of Cleveland the Merchants’ League Club of St. prot The rest — Uke stragglers fit only to tote red fire.

Among the multitudes attending the Re- publican convention are two old soldiers, each of whom carries an empty sleeve.

With Suspects Who Will Not Enjoy Freedom Until After the Convention. The Police Department, Assisted by the thirty detectives from other cities, have in the space of four days crowded the Central and Third District Police Stations with persons of suspicious character, and now they are beginning to fill the cells of the Fifth District Station’ ' The greatest secrecy is mainta‘ned in making these arrests, and is observed while the prisoners are held. Only a select few are permitted inside the stations, and they are only the higher officials of the Police Department. They have been cautioned to say nothing whatever concerning who is under arrest, or what the cause of arrest was Before the influx of visitors to the conven- tion was apparent newspaper reporters were permitted the freedom of the ¢ells and could talk to those under arrest, except where the prisoner was vet to be put through the sweatbox.

Mexican Girl Astonishing Bl Paso by Some Wonderful Cures. EL PASO, Tex., June 18.—Santa Teresa Urrea, the Mexican girl, who was banished from the Mexican State of Sinaloa, on the charge of having instigated insurrection, arrived in this city several days ago, and according to report has made a number of miraculous cures. To-day the house in which she is stopping | was besieged by thousands of invalids, dp = blind, mute and deaf, all 11 to have the saint of the Mayo tribe heal them. Among the cures it is claimed she effected to-day was an old paralytic, who was car- ried to her on a stretcher, and who, after she had laid her hands upon him, got up frcm the stretcher and walked out from the house George Speck, a newspaper re- porter of this city, claims that her touch removed rheumatism of long standing from his ankles. Among the callers to-day was Capt. Isaiah Weston, an old citizen of this city, whose left arm has been paralyzed for several years. Capt. eston came out of the house waving his arm in the air and ex- claiming, Thank God, I can use it again.“ Santa Teresa Tuesday announced that there would be a fali of rain within twelve hours. As the horizon Was perfectly clear and there had been no rainfall in El Paso for three months, the spectators showed an inclination to laugh at the girl's gers but at 7 o’clock there was a light rainfal and at 9 o’clock to-night there is a heavy rain falling on the San Augustine plains, just south of this city.

The call of the roll on the suspension of the rules resulted, 268 ayes to 495 nays. The second day’s session of the conven- tion was opened this morning with prayer y ex-Gov. James P. Eagle, which was immediately followed by balloting for State Auditor. The candidates were Clay Sloan of Lawrence, R. W. McFarlane of Sebastian, John Black of Benton and T. C. . eg 4 of Columbia. The first ballot resulted as follows: Mc- e Sloan, 222; ‘Monroe, 157; Black, to nominate, 375. Several before recess, 151. Necessary other ballots were taken with but slight change. .

That our delegates in the Demo- tie National Convention should be left ee to exercise their best judgment for the nterest of the party in the selection of can- „ didates for President and Vice President, but in no event shall they cast the vote of the ansas Democracy for any candidate who is not well known to be a firm and un- flinching advocate of the free and unlimited age of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, as eet forth in the platform. They are also di- rected to vote as a unit on all questions be- fore the corvention.

Albert Zehendr, a waiter at the Planters’ Hotel, was struck over the head with a glass jar by Charles Norton, also a waiter, early Thursday morning. Zehendr is now in the City Hospital with a fractured skull He is not expected recover. Zehendr and Norton were rr in the cafe of the hotel as wat and at 1 o clock Thursday morning Zehendr saw Norton walk out of the cafe with an umbrella be- longing to one of the patrons of the place. Norton was just going into the glassware pantry with it and Zehendr called to nim to stop and informed the headwaiter of the circumstance. Norton started-to-run up the marble steps into the rotunda of the hotel. Zehendr and the head waiter start- ed after him and thg latte: caught him on the landing. ; Zehendr was immediscely behind and Nor- ton turned quickly and brought down on Zehendr’s head a hzavy glass jar which he carried in his hand. Zehendr fell to the floor unconscious anc the jar was shattered into a hundred pieces. * In the excitement Norton broke away and escaped / getting out of the hote Ithrough the bir corridor. Zehendr was sent to the City Dis sary. wrére Dr. Néwcomb said that his skull was fractured and that there were small chances of his 8 From there he was trans- ferred to the hospital. . Norton was arrested an hour later at Twelfth and Pine streets by Sergt. Mansfield and Patrolman Fagan. Dr. Sutter at the City Hospital will cut the broken fragment away from Zehendr’s skull and insert a silver plate, but he has little hope of the success of the operation CHAUNCEY M. DEPEW’S CAR. Marvel of Elegance and Taste for the Magnate’s Private Use. A glance into Chauncey M. Depew's pri- vate traveling car shows that the railroad magnate lives in comfort and elegance while on the road. Something like $40,000 was ex- pended in making this palace on wheels one of the best specimens of the car builder's art possible. Mr. — igh takes his annual tours over the railroad systems of the coun- try in this car; and recently he træveled about 10,000 miles, going twice across the continent, and when the car was turned over to the inspectors at the end of the journey for an overhauling not a nut or screw was found loose or out of order, and all that was necessary to prepare the car for another journey was to sweep and dust it. ' Mr. Depew is not a great lover of glitter and tinsel, and hence the exterior of his, car is not particularly attractive. When he travels he doesn't care to have the people of wayside stations where he may chance to stop flocking about and staring in at the windows to see what great man has come to town, and so the exterior of the car presents about the same appearance as other palace cars of the Wagner company. One has to explore the interior, to find luxury, comfort and elegance. The car is 74 feet long and is fitted with Westinghouse airbrakes, says the New York Sun, a steam whistle signal service to the engineer, steam heat, and an instru- ment which records the speed of the car. The indicator has often registered 85 miles an hour. At the rear of the car is the observatory section. It is a small room, luxuriously upholstered and furnished with easy chairs done in heavy plush. Large windows on the side and rear give a complete view of the passing scenery. Next in order come the staterooms. ese, in reality, are bedrooms, they are so large and commo- dious. They are three in number and con- tain full-sized beds. Mr. Depew never sleeps iff a berth when traveling, and the room he occupies would almost swallow two of the cubby holes called rooms in some New Y Each room is sup- 2 3 a oa ET RAMI PE LEST ILRI.

Messengers Had to Run to the Engine Companies’ Headquarters to Give News of the Fires. The storm of Wednesday night caused much excitement in Carondelet and dam- aged many houses in a small way. Windows were broken and gables were injured. Two houses were struck by lightning and the entire fire alarm and police telegraph sys- tem was burned out. The storm, though of short duration, was the heaviest experienced in the extreme south end of the city for years.- Many of the more timid, particularly the women and children, thought that they were about to be visited by a tornado like to the one which devastated the district further north a few weeks ago. Hundreds of families sought safety in their cellars where they re- mained until the wind and rain ceased. The storm started about 7:30 p. m. with a heavy rain which continued to fall in torrents for twenty minutes. Then hail- stones, some of them as large as marbles, fell. At the same time jagged streaks and broad sheets of lightning. played through the darkened sky and were followed by terrifying pedals of thunder. This continued for nearly an hour and the excitement was great, as it was expected that each moment would bring a howling twisting tornado. The hail broke many windows, and light- ning struck in a half-dozen places. he wind also did some damage. In many laces small trees and heavy branches of arge trees were twisted off and strewn in the streets. ; At the house of Police Capt. 5 oyd, 6108 South Broadway, a heavy gus blew in two second qtory window sashes. The broken glass and wood were strewn over the floor of the room, ‘moth of the Carondelet car Unes—the guthern Efectric and the Carondelet divi- flats lied with hot and cold water and electric ellis.

This is also the dining- room about fifteen feet long and the width; car. The woodwork is solid m * throughout. An immense French pl Pler glass at the end of the saloon gives the cm- partment the appearance of being uch arger than it really is. The windcwWs are double to keep out the dust. In on“ corner, by the great mirror, is a secretary, supplied with stationery and telegraph bianks. and holds railroad manuals, reports of the Inter- state Commerce and the State Railroad Commissions and other books of that char- acter for the convenience of Mr. Depew. The windows are hung with heavy silk cur- tains, and the reo chairs are of plush and velvet. Around the center table — four O six persons may dine in comfort. Next to the main salon is a small section with berths for use in emergencies, and then gomes the porter's room, which is as well furnished almost as a stateroom in the average sleeping car. Beyond are the kitchen and pantry, where Mr. Depew's own, cook prepares all his meals while trav- eli Ths kitchen is supplied with all th? arpurtenances necessary to a model kitchen. Mr. Depew’s porter is William Patterson, a colored man, who has been in the employ of the Vanderbilts and Mr. Depew for nearly thirty years. He has the absolute confidence of these railroad magnates, and they never journey anywhere without taking him with them. When not on the road Patterson holds himself in readiness for a call at any time. His fellow-porters declare he has the best job in the gift of the New York Central. Patterson proudly points to the five gold stripes on his sleeve, which de- note his length of service in the employ of the New York Central Railway. Another stripe will be added next November, when he will. have completed thirty years’ con- tipuous service. Cheap Rates West and Southwest.

Traffic on both lines was delayed for an hour. At Jefferson Barracks the wires on the loop of the Southern Electric Line were blown down and so wrapped about the cars that they could not be extricated. The line did not run cars for two hours. Almost the first Hash of lightning struck the police and fire alarm telegraph wires and burned out the connections. The First District Station is entirely cut off communication with any of the up-town districts, and also from the call boxes con- nected with it. The same condition prevailed all night with the No. 2 and No. 34 Engine-houses. The temporary connections which were es- tablished soon after the tornado of May 27 were destroyed and the part of the city within the territory of these companies was at the mercy of the fire fiend. Lightning struck the house of Peter Lup- pens, 7608 Riley avenue, at 8:25 p. m. and set the roof on fire. An attempt was made to turn in an alarm at a nearby fire alarm box, but the box would not work. A member of the No, 34 engine company saw thelight from the burning use and summoned his com- rades. The apparatus reached the fire in time to extinguish it before much damage had been done. About the same time the house of Joseph Borrim, 7907 Water street, was struck by lightning which in some way started a fire in the kitchen. A police officer hurried to the No. 2 engine house and gave a Still alarm, That company extinguished the blaze with but $20 loss. For the rest of the night both fire com- anies kept men out on foot and on horse ack patrolling their respective districts to look out for possible fires. The foreman of No. 2 engine company in attempti to open an alarm box at Vul- can and rtois streets found to his sor- row that the box was heavily charged with electricity. He was knocked from his feet and went sprawling in the mud. For the remainder of the night he wore rubber gloves and stood on a rubber coat when examining boxes. All of the boxes in the district were charged. It is believed that an electric light wire crossed them. At the Second District Police Station the telephone fuse box was badly scorched and charred. At the Carondelet Station the. telephone transmitter and box smell strongly of burned w ‘ The telephone connectioh of the two en- gine houses is burned out and the line con- — with the gong is in the same condi- on. In the vicinity of 6100 and 6200 South dows were broken by the combination of wind and hail. Such also is the case in ‘other sections of Carondelet where the storm was heaviest. Considerable damage was done by the wind to trees and farm outhouses, outside of the city limits, west and south of Carondelet. No authentic report of these damages has been received in Carondelet. No report of any rson inju by the storm had been received at the Carondelet Police Station Thursday. STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.

She Appeared Drunk at Her Place of Employment, a Large Emporium, and Was Discharged. Pretty Lena Lang endeavored to end all her troubles by swallowing a quantity of morphine dissolved in whisky. Miss Lang, who is 22 years old, left her home in St. Joseph, Mo., six months ago because her step-mother abused her, and she came to St. Louis with $100 and a de- termination to do for herself. She engaged board at 1500 Olive street, and her determination, coupled with her gy looks and winning manner, secured er a position as saleswoman at a large Broadway dry goods house. She was acceptable to her employers, and before she had been with them a month her salary was raised, for she was consid- ered one of the best saleswomen in the establishment. But the temptations of a big city were too strong for her. Her ambition to make something of herself dwindled to an inclina- tion for men and drink, but she céntinued her work in the store. At the boarding-house she met two young men who were older in habits than years, and of evenings the three of them visited the wine-rooms in the neighborhood. A first she drank plain soda water, then sar- Saparilla, ginger ale, beer, Rhine wine, claret, whisky, brandy, rum, creme de menthe, absinthe and finally concoctions of e rankest and strongest liquors. s next morning were in demand and seltzer water was acceptable. ore than once Lena a store with a swollen he but her em- ployers considered her drowsiness to be due drunk and me to go to way downtown.

It is the rightful province of this conven tion te revise the party tenets and to an- nounce anew the party purpose. The ma- jority of this convention in the exercise of such authority has this day made official enunciation of Republlean law and gospel. With much of the platform we agree; de- lieving that in many essential particulars it eneompasses. the need of humanity, af- firms the maintenance of right and pro- poses the just remédéy for wrong, But ft declares one element of principle not only in direct comtraventién of the expression of party faith in 189%, but in radical opposi- tion to our solemn conviction. We recognize that in all matters of m method it is bit just and helpful that the minority should yield to the will of the majority, lest we have chaos in parties and in goverh- ment. But as no pronouncement hy majorities. can change knowledge, or belief sincéraly entertalfied,.@0 it cannot oblige minorities to abandon or disavow their principles: As surely us ft is requisite for peace and progress that minorities shall yield to ma jorities in matters of mere meth- od, fust so durely ip it necessary tor — same and progress that ‘minorit nal Nr in matters of elemental truth.
