SIX COMPANIES DISRUPTED.

.The Powerful Chinese Organization Broken
Up by Internecine Strife.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 29.——The faction-
sl fight that has been going on for some
time in Chinatown between the See Yup
and the Sam Yup families has culminated
in the disruption of the Six Companies,
the most powerful Organization ever insti-
tuted by the Chinese in this country.

All the efforts of Consul General Li
Yung Yew and other prominent-Chinese
to bring about a settlement of the differ-
ences here resulted in failure, and the Chi-
nese minister at Washington has an-
nounced his intention of coming to San
Francisco and trying his powers as a
peacemaker‘. The secession of the See
Yups from the Six Companies leaves the
latter with the small end of the organiza-
tion and a depleted treasury. The boycott
started by the See Yups has nearly ruined
the Sam Yup merchants, and if not ended
soon it will cause the retirement from
business of a large number of firms. The

boycott is not confined to this city, but is

being extended to every place in the Unit-
ed States where Chinese reside in any
number.

This state of affairs has been tele~

graphed to the minister. A few days ago
he informed the Chinese officials that un-
less the boycott was declared elf within 12
days from the date of . his telegram he
would come to San Francisco and take a
hand in the controversy. Ehis is under-
stood to mean that some of the leaders in
the warfare may expect to have their
heads lcpped off whenever they return to
China unless they comply with the com}
mands of the minister.

our WINS HIS FIGHT.

___——

Nominated by Mr. Gilkeson,. He Is
Elected State Chairman.

BUT ONE CONVENTION HELD.

After the Opening Everything Passed Oi!
Harmoniously at the Convention In
Harrisburg Without a. Bip-

ple of Excitement. '

HARRISBURG, Aug. 29.-—-There was only
one Republican convention here “-today,
and the contest in the single convention
that was held was fought on the state
chairmanship, the candidates being Unit-
ed States Senator Quay and B. F. Gilke-
son.

The compromise by which a bolting
convention was averted was arriyed‘ at
about 3 o’clock. Three men from each
side got together in the Commonwealth
hotel, the anti-Quay - stronghold, and
agreed upon the terms of the compromise.
.Ex-Chairman Thomas V. Cooper, Lieu-
tenant Governor Walter Lyon and Judge
Miller of Mercer county represented Sen-
utor Quay, and State Senator Flinn, Dis-
trict Attorney Graham of Philadelphia
and ex-Congressman Yardley were the
anti-Quay representatives.

After ,much discussion they finally
agreed that but one convention should be
held, that the six superior court judges
should be renominated and that the com
vention roll should be made up with each
of the six contestants and contestees al-
lowed half a vote. It was also agreed to
admit none but delegates and newspaper
men to the convention hall. -

Governor Hastings and David Martin
were the first delegates to arrive. They
came in together from the rearvof the hall
and were received with much enthusiasm
as they took their seats. Senator Porter
of Philadelphia was the next arrival. He,
too, was applauded as he climbed down
from the stage to a seat in the front of the
hall. .

Enter Quay and Stone.

At precisely 11 o’clock Senator Quay,
attired in a loose sack coat, white duck
trousers and straw hat, entered the hall
from the rear with Congressman Stone of
Alleghany. There were‘ few delegates in
the hall when the senator arrived. He
was applauded as he walked .up the aisle
and took a seat just in the rear of Govern-
or Hastings. The two looked straight
ahead and did not appear to know of each
other’s presence. '

The convention was called to order at
11:58 by Chairman Gilkescn. Secretary

SENATOR QUAY.

Rex called the roll of delegates. Congress-
man Stone of Alleghany was substituted
for Frank J. Terrence.

The roll call complete, Speaker Walton
of the house of representatives named
Colonel Henry Hall of Pittsburg for tem-
porary chairman. Senator Quay said:

“By direction of the caucus held last
night, I have the honor to name for tem-
porary chairman Hon. John B. Robinson
of Delaware.”

Ex-Collector Thomas V. Cooper of Dela-
ware made a speech seconding Robinson’s
nomination. While Cooper was talking
Senator Quay walked over and shook Gov-
ernor Hastings’ hand and whispered some-
thing in his ear which must have been
pleasant, as both smiled as Senator Quay
resumed his seat. ' -

The vote for temporary chairman re-
sulted: Hall, 138%. ; Robinson, 163%.
Robinson’s election was made unanimous.

In taking the chair Mr. Robinson said,
” I thank you for the honor you have con-
ferred on me and I wish to say I am now
ready for the business of the convention.”

Quay Nominates Hastings.

The briefness of. the speech surprised
everybody. Senator Quay moved that the
committee on permanent organization be
instructed to report the name of Governor
Hastings for permanent chairman. Car-
ried. The Quay people having possession
of the convention, as many as half 'a dozen
of them were on their feet at a time, clam-
oring for recognition. The usual provision
for committees and order of business was
made. '

Congressman Stone of Alleghauy offered
the following resolution, which was unan-
imously adopted:

‘ ‘ That the rule for the selection of chair-
man of the state committee by the candi-
dates and the permanent chairman of the
convention be suspended, and said state
chairman be named by the convention im-
mediately after the adoption of the report
of the committee on resolutions.”

Mr. Riter, Philadelphia, offered the fol;
lowing resolution, to be referred to the
committee on resolutions:

“We adopt and reaffirm the currency
plank, of the national Republican plat-
form of 1892, as follows:

"The American people from tradition

I and interest favor Bimetallism and use of

both gold and silver as standard money,
with such restrictievnsgand under such pro-
visions, to be determined by legislation, as
will secure the maintenance of the parity
of value of two metals so that the pur-
chasing debt paying?!l power of the dollar,

Whethersilver, gold, or paper, shall be at‘

all times as good as any other. We come
mend the wise and patriotic stepsalready
taken by. our government to secure an in"-

' isomolnnooneraqo unevenness:

 

fir'e’s‘aE will insure. 5 parity'cf valué 56-
tween gold and silver for use as meney
throughout the world. . ‘

“We oppose the debasement of the na-
tional. currency by the admission of silver
to free and unlimited coinage at the ratio
of 16 to 1, for the reason that if such a
policy be adopted it will not be possible
to maintain the parityof values of the
two metals, am! the purchasing and debt
paying powar of the dollar,.whether of sil-
ver, gold or paper, cannot continue tobe
equal.”

Quay’s Resolution Against Corruption.

Senator Quay offered the following res<
cluticn: “ That we decry the growing-nos
of money in politics and the corporate con-
trol of legislatures, municipalities, po-
litical primaries and elections,‘and favor

rthe enactment of the legislation and en-
forcement of lawe to correct such abuses.

“We earnestly insist upon a form of
civil service which will prevent the en-
’slavement of publlp officers and employees,
and the compellifi of those appointed to'
preserve the peace to confine themselves
to their duties; Which will insure abso-
lute' freedom and? fairness in bestowing
state and county and municipal contracts
and will punish any form of favoritism in
granting .‘them; which will forbid the
grant of exclusive franchises to “dealers in
public necessities, comforts, conveyance
and sanitary requirements, and will in-
sure the recognition of ability and fidelity
in the public service, keeping service to
the country ever foremost when accom-
panied by ability and fitness.

“We demand that public ofiice should
be for the public benefit, and its term in
subordinate positions should be during
good behavior. No public employee or
officer should be permitted to influence
primaries or elections, nor upon any pre-
tense to be assessed upon his salary, and
all unnecessary positions and salaries
should be abolished, and expenditures and
taxation reduced. There should be a uni-
form basis cf valuation of property for
public purposes. Corporations enjoying
public privileges should pay for them, and
schools be divorced from politics and kept
absolutely free from political influence
and control.” Referred to committee on
resolutions.

The effort to secure 50 members each
for the committees on ' platform and per-
manent organization caused much confu-
sion and delay. At, 1:30 p. m. the dele-
gates from the various senatorial districts
finally succeeded in selecting their men.

The committee on permanent organiza-
tion met at once in the lobby and went
through the form of agreeing on Governor
Hastings for permanent chairman.

Harmony, All Harmony.

Temporary Chairman Robinson desig-
nated Senator Quay and C. L. Magee as a
committee to escort Permanent Chairman
Hastings to the platform. Wild enthusi-
asm followod the appearance of the two
rivals, arm in arm.

Governor Hastings thanked the conven-
tion for the honor of his unanimous elec-
tion as chairman. He said the recent
events in the Republican party of Penn-
sylvania proves the prophecy that “electric
storms have‘the effect of clearing the at-
mosphere, and we reserve our cyclone for
the free trade, debt creating Democratic.
party. ” .

Nominations for state treasurer were
called for,‘ and Colonel Henry Hall of
Pittsburg named Benjamin J. Haywood
of Mercer county. There were no other
nominations, and Mr. Haywood was unan-
imously chosen.

Senator Quay was recognized. He said: *

“I am satisfied, while I have my preju-
dices in this fight, that . it is for the best
interest of the Republican party that the
nominees of our governor for the superior
court be the choice of this convention. I
will therefore, though it may be unprece-
dented, move that James A. Beaver of
Center; Howard J. Reeder, Nerthampton;
John J. Wickham, Beaver; George B. Or-
lady, Huntingdon; Charles E. Rice, Lu-
zerne; E. N. Willard, Lackawanna, be de.
clared the nominees of this convention.”
The senator’s motion was unanimously
agreed to.

Chairman Gilkeson, who sat in front of
Senator Quay, was substituted for one of
the delegates from Bucks county for the
purpose of making a motion. He said:
“It is perfectly evident to my mind, after
the vote for temporary chairman, .what
would be the result of a vote for state
chairman. I‘therefore, in the interest of
party harmony, withdraw as a candidate
for this plfice and move the unanimous
election of Senator Matthew Stanley
Quay.” ~

This statement was received with wild
applause. The delegates stood up in their
seats and waved fans and handkerchiefs.

The spectators in the galleries applaud-
ed, and for a minute the convention was
a howling mob.

' Congressman Stone seconded the mo-
tion.
Senator Quay Elected.

Before the question was put, Congress-
man Robinscn apologized for the author-
ship cf the Quay campaign slogan, “What
did he do with it?”

Referring to Chairman Gilkeson’s dis-
position of the campaign funds, he said
he was satisfied that Gilkeson spent the
money honestly. .

Senator Quay was then made the unan‘
imous choice of the convention for state
chairman.

There were cries for a speech from Sen-
ator Quay. The Senator arose, and declin-
ing to take the platform simply said, “I
will endeavor in the campaign now ensu-
ing to make it a campaign of merit."
