Styles and Colors.
[There is nothing at present to indicate.
any radical change in styles for the fall
trade, says the American Hatter. Con-
servatism seems to be the order of the
day, and, while the radical English
dcrbys seen at the clubs are of extremely
small proportions, the idea does not
meet with favor in the trade. The
orders for fall already placed are for
medium styles and proportions. Dur-
ing the past- few wmks‘ some radical
styles in stiff hats have been evolved
for certain dealers in the Middle States,
notably in Baitimijlrc, Wilmington and
l’ittaburg, but these styles are extremely
local and not at all likely to spread.
Tourist hats continue to find favor,
I-spccially in pearls, and the union will
no doubt illul’itllm as the season ud-
vances. The caplnnkers are all busy,
thcdcmand for outing goods of cloth
materials being soomfllgl y unapmnsuhie.

McKinley Wins In llllnoln.
SPRINGFIELD, Illa. May l.—-Tho itc-
publicnn state convention adopted a reso-
lution ludorsing the candidacy of William
McKinley for president.
After the state nominations had been
made the following resolution was offered:
Resolved, That the delegates elected by
this convention to the national convention
at St. Louis be instructed to present and
support the Hon. Shelby M. Culiom for
president.
This was greeted with the wildest eu-
thusiasm and long continued cheering.
When order was finally restored and the
resolution was road by the secretory.
Charles Fuller, the leader of (the Cnllom
forces, arose to speak to the resolution.
When he arose, W. J. Calhoun, the leader
of the McKinley faction, interrupted him
by demanding of the chair if the remain.
tion was offered to be voted upon,
The chair said it was, and Mr. Fuller
proceeded. He said the eyes of the nation
wcro upon this convention anxiously
waiting to see what action would be to
hon regarding tho presidential question.
Thoro was not a man in this state who
was not proud of Lincoln andlirant. Both
of them were furnished by llllnois. We
have a man in our midst whom the people
of the state have delighted to honor. -
Twice elected governor and three times
elected to the United States sonata, l-ihel-
by M. Culiom had been an honor to the
party. in conclusion he insisted that
Shelby M. Culiom was the choice of the
people. Lougsml furious cheering follow-
ed Mr. Fuller's speech.

Cbicngoaroso and moved that the name
of William McKinley, .lr., of Ohio be sol)
stitutcd for that of l-lholhy M. Culiom.

W. .l. Calhoun then took the platform
to speak in behalf of McKinley. lie said
ho had II number of reasons why ho ho-
lievsd the motion offered by Mr. Balboa
of Leo county should prevail. Without
four of exaggeration, he felt lhntlllno and
been no time since the was that the people
of the state were so deeply interested in
II state convention as they were today. He
referred to tho llomocratic administration
of the nation's affairs and to the hard
times that had resulted. The people bad
bad enough of Democracy and were about
to once more return to the Republican
party. it was not strange that people
should at so important and serious a mo-
rnsnt select as their leader a man who am-
bodlsd their principles. Ha realised that
the state had furnished many great stator
men. There was a man who had followed
Grant through the war and had shied
Lincoln during the dark days of the war.
lie was a man who had a world wide repu-
tation as a statesman. He was the favorite
of the plain common people in the work-
shop and in the homes. "Willlssn Mo-

man of the hour." .
