The Democratic Candidate \Vill Be Ac- companied on His Tour by Silver Dick Bland—Pingree Captures a. Cong ventlon — Pattison’s Position. NEW YORK, Aug. 3.-—Thomas C. Platt, Republican leader of the state of New York, and Mark A. Hanna, chairman of the Republican national committee and campaign manager for William McKinley, met yesterday for the first time since their battle at the Republican national conven- tion. When they last met, they were man- agers of rival candidates for the Repub- lican nomination for president. Yesterday they met to discuss ways and means to elect the party candidate for president. Shortly before 3 o’clock Mr. Platt, accom- panied by Chairman Hackett of the Re- publican state committee and Chairman Lauterbach of the county committee, I called atthe national headquarters. Chair- man Hanna, Vice Presidential Candidate Garret A. Hobart and Colonel Scott of the national executive committee were in Mr. Hanna’s room when the New Yorkers called. He greeted them cordially, and after Sergeant at Arms Swords had closed all avenues leading to the chairman’s rooms the party settled down to a con- ference, which lasted more than an hour. They discussed at length the situation in this state and agreed upon the method of conducting the campaign. Mr. Hanna, at the conclusion of the conference, invited his callers to drop in again whenever opportunity or occasion offered and assured them that he should be glad to see them at any time. As Mr. Platt and Mr. Hanna parted both seemed to be pleased, and the chairman of the national Committee evidently thought he had done a good day’s work. Immediately after the conference Chair- man Hanna said that the interview with Mr. Platt had been a most satisfactory one. “We virtually agreed on the policy of the campaign in this state,” said be. “It will be in charge of the state and county organizations, supplemented 'by the na- tional committee. Those committees are certainly competent to manage things here. No definite date has been set for the formal opening of the campaign, but that matter will be looked after without delay. “Former President Harrison has been invited by the state committee to speak at the first big ratification meeting, and it is reserved his decision.” “Has any duty been assigned to or any arrangement made with the organizations not affiliated with the regular Republican organization, but which intend to support the Republican national ticket—the Mc- Kinley league, for instance?“ Chairman Hanna smiled a knowing smile and answered good naturediy: “Now, that is getting around to fac- tions. I am here representing the national committee and cannot answer for organi- zations not afi‘iliated with the regular or- ganization. ’ ’ In answer to another inquiry Mr. Han- na said that it was not the present inten- tion of Major McKinley'to leave the state of Ohio. He might speak in Columbus at the big mass meeting on Aug. 15, which is to be addressed by Speaker Reed, Sena- tor John Sherman and Senator Elect For- aker, and he might not. Mr. Hanna will return home next Wednesday and will talk over matters as soon as he reaches Canton. Mr. Hanna said today that he had about finished the preliminary work at the east- ern headquarters, and that affairs would be running in their natural grooves after tomorrow. He has seen many people, in- cluding a number Of sound money Demo- crats, and the plan Of campaign has been practically perfected. Bryan’s Trip East. LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 3.—-Referring to his proposed eastern trip, Mr. Bryan said today that he may conclude to go from here to Chicago over some other than the Burlington route, as strong pressure is being (brought to bear to induce him to visit some cities not on that line. The dispatches have announced that the free silver people of Des Moines have expected him to come that way on partial assur- ances‘ he had given them and have made preparations to recognize his visit. That is undoubtedly why he is reconsidering lead him to go east over, the Rock Island. He said he‘could not state positively until the expiration .of a day or two which route he may take going east. This contem- plated change will not affect the dates or route east of Chicago. It was given out at the Bryan home to— day that Hon. R. P. Bland of Missouri will arrive in Lincoln next Friday and will accompany Mr. and Mrs. Bryan on their trip to New York. When asked today for a statement con- cerning the reiterated charge of Senator Thurston in recent speeches to the effect- that he was in the pay of-thepmineowners, Mr. Bryan today declined to authorize a denial, saying that the denial will be made at the proper time, and that denials of the statement have heretofore been made. Mr. Bryan was questioned today'in ref- erence to the reported discrepancy in the Democratic platform and the controversy over the alleged erroneous interpolatio’n of the Hill amendment to the financial- plank providing that any change in the monetary standard shall not apply to ex- isting contracts. While he declined to be interviewed on the point in controversy, he said (be presumed that the Democratic national committee would at the proper time circulate the platform of the party in its proper form as it was adopted. ' The Bliss-Pingree Fight. PORT HURON, Mioh., Aug. 3.—The in- tensity of the struggle for supremacy be- tween the Bliss and Pingree factions re- sulted in splitting the Republican county convention, and the state convention at Grand Rapids next Wednesday will be called upon to decide between two sets of delegates. Colonel Bliss cf Saginaw and Mayor Pingree of Detroit are running aclose race for the gubernatorial nomination, and in the county convention here the Bliss forces had control of the temporary organization, and the belief that the Pin- gree people'were not getting fair treat- ment caused a tremendous row. ‘ The report of the credentials commit- tee, which favored seating certain anti- Pingree delegates, intensified the disorder, and the convention was in a bedlam. Offers to divide the delegation evenly did hoped that he will accept, though he has the route of his projected trip and may The EVENING enzmnnn. 7, not pacify the ‘Pingree men, and several fights were narrowly averted Finally in the midstzof the row the antis’ list of dele- gates was declared elected, and the Bliss men left the hall. The Pingree men then called Mayor Boynton to the chair, rein- . stated the deposed Pingree delegates and elected delegates ' who are instructed strongly for Pingree. Ohio Gold Democrats. COLUMBUS, Aug. 3.-—A meeting of gold standard Democrats was held here yester- day. The meeting was held behind closed doors and was presided over by ex—State Senator Joseph J. McMackin. Resolu- tions were adopted denouncing the Chica- go platform as undemocratic and Popu- listic and for the appointment of a provi- sional national committeeman to call a state convention for the selection of dele— gates to the national Democratic conven- tion to be held later. FIX-Congressman Outhwaite was selected as provisional committeeman. Pattison’s Position. PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 3.—Ex-Governor Robert E. Pattison said today in answer to a question as to whether he would sup port the Chicago nominees. and platform, “Unquestionably I shall do my part as a citizen to bring success to the candidates.” In speaking of the probability of a further defection among the presidential electors in this state he said, “If any gentleman named as elector feels that he cannot obey the mandate of his party, he ought to withdraw without being asked.” Morton on Finance. NEBRASKA CITY, Nob, Aug. 3.—-Hon. J. Sterling Morton delivered a nonpartisan address on finance here in the presence of a large audience. He drew comparison between the money of the country when he came to Nebraska in pioneer days and now. He said then it was something sub- stantial, such as cattle, horses and hogs, and not until the present time was there an effort to create value from something which had no value as a commodity: Nebraska’s Silver Party. LINCOLN,'Neb., Aug. 3.-——The National Silver party of Nebraska has opened head- quarters at the Lincoln hotel. It is in charge of ex-Congressman Gilbert L. LaWS. A vast quantity of literature is being prepared for circulation, and all de- tails for a vigorous campaign are arranged. It will be conducted in harmony with the Democratic managers, but separate and distinct. wm Confer With Hanna. NORFOLK, Aug. ‘ 3.—Colonel William Lambert, chairman of the Republican state committee, received a telegram from Mark Hanna last night calling him to New York for a special conference in refer- ence to the political situation in Virginia.

BATH, Ma. Aug. 3.—The Democrats of Sagadahcc county held an enthusiastic convention here, at which the Chicago na- tional platform was indorsed and at which rousing free silver speeches were a feature. Wolseley Raises a Row. LONDON, Aug. 3.——Field Marshal Lord Wolseley, commander-in-chlef cf. the Brit- ish army, has created a sensation bya statement made to the Indian military commission on Wednesday that he would not like to put Indian troops in front of European soldiers, adding, “I should not like to fight the army of France or Ger- many or any other army with Indian troops.” Military ofiicers now in Eng- land. who have served in India declare that there is no ground for General Lord Wolseley’s remarks. The Indian troops, they declare, are an admirable fighting force, equal in every way to the soldiery of Russia or any other country. It is the consensus of, opinion in military circles that the commander-in-chief was ani- mated by a feeling of jealousy toward General Lord Roberts, whose high opinion of the Indian soldiery is based upon ex- perience. Field Marshal Lord Wolseley’s action has caused indignant protest upon all sides. A Victory For the Cubans. HAVANA, Aug. 3.—Further advices have reached here from Santiago de Cuba of the recent engagement between a Spanish force under command of Colonel Sagura 'and the insurgents led by Rabi. Accord- ing to the government report, the troops won a victory after inflicting heavy losses on the insurgents, themselves escaping with slight losses. The details of the en- gagement are being suppressed by the gov- ernment, but advices from other sources show that the insurgents were not defeat- ed, and that a large number of the troops was killed or wounded. A Stranded Delegate. ST. LOUIS, Aug. 3.—George 0. Fall, a delegate to' the silver convention lately held in this city, and his 11-year-old daughter Lulu were found sleeping in a vacant lot yesterday. They are from Lynn, Mass. The girl will be sent home. Mr. Fall was sent to the city hospital for examination as to his sanity. During the convention he stopped at'Ninth and Pine streets. When his money gave out, he slept in various places, his latest berth being the vacant lot where they were ”found. Lulu always accompanied him. Great Kite Flying. BOSTON, Aug. 3.—All records at kite flying were broken at the Blue Hill ob- servatory yesterday. A kite was sent 7,333 feet into the air. This is 1,000 feet higher than the top of Mount Washington and 800 feet higher than a kite had ever been sent before. Fifty members of the Ap- palachian club witnessed the exhibition. Gandaur Wants Time. LONDON, Aug. 3.-—-The Referee today says: “As a result of dispatches just-re- ceived it seems that the chances for the Stanbury-Gaudaur match are rather re- mote. Stanbury must sell early in Sep- tember, while Gaudaur wants to post- pone the race. Stanbury is training hard.” Shot His Son. ARNPRIOR, Ont., , Aug. 3. — Martin O’Hara and his son Farmers, living in Fitzroy, about seven miles from here, quarreled yesterday. The old man shot his son, and he cannot recover. Not Believed In Ottawa. , OTTAWA, Aug. 3.——The story sent out from Montreal that Sir Charles Topper was to be made governor general of Can- ada in succession to Lord Aberdeen is not credited here - v- i German Police Have a New Scheme For Trapping Socialists. FAVORS FOR ARISTOCRATS. Peculiar Efforts Of the Government to Win Over the Nobility—A Naval Demon. stration That \Vill Surpass All of \l’illiam’s Previous Efforts. BERLIN, Aug. 3.—-The police have found a new way to look after the dreaded so- cialists. Policemen in citizens’ clothes are sent to all places of public resort fre- quented all day long by malcontents and the lower olases generally. They receive a certain sum to pay for drinks and food, and all they have to do is to keep their ears and eyes open and make arrests for sedi- tious utterances. A new police order provides for the ar- rest cf persons who after 11 o’clock at night play the piano or sing with win- dows Open. This regulation is now in force in the suburbs, and if found appli- cable it will be introduced in the capital. Since Prince von Hohenlohe left the viceregal palace of Strassburg disquieting rumors have been circulating concerning the administration of justice. It is alleged that the government, in order to winover the aristocracy, favors scions of noble families in every way possible. Thus it is reported that young Baron Florent Charpentier, son of the deputy of that mime, after failing .to pass the examina- tion at the University of Strassburg, was declared a graduate by special decree of the secretary of state of the reihslande. It is also reported that the circuit presi- dent of upper Alsace permits the great in- dustrials in his district illegal liberties to the detriment of the poorer classes of workmen. American Salt Horse. A long and costly inquiry upon the part of the chancellery has proved that Amer- ica does not send salt liorseflesh here to any extent, and consequently the empires’ horsefiesh industry is not menaced. In spite of the official denial, however, the agrarian papers continue to attack the United States for the alleged endeavor to foist salt horse upon Germany, asserting that salt horse drummers frequently visit the cities of the Rhine besides Hamburg and Stettin. Emperor William is preparing Castle Bellevue, which is beautifully situated on the Berlin phiergarten, for his eldest son. The old house is being thoroughly over- hauled and modernized, and in order to save horseflesh the Bellevue station of the elevated road will be connected with the park of the castle by a staircase, so that the prince may run up and see his parents at the schloss for 15 pfennigs at any time he chooses. , There has been fierce sunshine in many parts of Prussia this week and a large number of workmen have been prostrated by the heat. - At Kcenigsberg on Thurs- day the heat was so great that 18 persons who were prostrated have since died from the effects. A telegram from Dares-Salaam says that Director Schroeder of the East In- dian Plantation company has been sen- tenced to 15 years’ penal servitude for brutality to native men and women. The details of his crimes have not arrived here, but they must be of a hideous char- acter, as the penalty inflicted is the most severe in the criminal code, save the death penalty. The Kaiser and Dueling. Some months ago The Militar-Wochen- blatt, always considered an ofi‘icial organ, astonished the reichstag by following its discussion against dueling with an article upholding duels and duelists. Later the minister for war, Baron Bronsart von Schellendorf, disclaimed responsibility for the utterances of the periodical referred to, but the latest number of The Militar- chhenblatt again contains two articles in favor of dueling in the army, declaring that without it the army would degenerate. These articles have caused a great deal of stir, as it is said in army circles that the emperor himself is in favor of dueling, and that the paper therefore can disregard the wishes of the war cfiice. His majesty’s frequent pardoning of duelists certainly gives color to this opinion. It is expected that the matter will be again ventilated in the reichstag. Prince Friedrich of Sachsen-Meiningen has gone to Florence to live. He intends to devote himself entirely to painting and is also a clever literary man. His wife is a daughter of the German novelist, Wil- helm Jensen. The emperor recently made her baroness von Saalfeld. The emperor will hold this fall the greatest naval maneuvers yet essayed by ‘the German navy. The fleet will consist of 53 ships, inclusive of 24 torpedo boats. Admiral von Kcrr has selected the torpedo schoolship Blucher as his flagship. Prince Henry of Prussia. contrary to expects. tions, will not have an important com- mand. Big Storm in Cincinnati. CINCINNATI, Aug. 3.—Four rain and hail storms, with wind blowing at 60 miles per hour, accompanied by terrific thunder and lightning, visited this Icity yesterday afternoon. Many buildings were struck by lightning, wires Were pros- trated and houses unroofed. The suburbs suffered severely. The damage is enormous. A Big Failure. COLUMBUS, 0., Aug. 3.—The Colum bus Buggy company has made an assignment to W. A. Miles and John M. Thomas. As. sets are placed at $800,000 to $1,000,000, contingent liabilities large.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.—’l‘he treasury statement just issued shows that the pub- close of the month to have been $966,154,- 512, an increase for, the month of $10,- 857, 35$. , . This‘h Refreshing. NORWAY, Ma, Aug. 3.—The first frost Boone tonne torroo ' lic debt, less cash in the treasury, at the of the seasdn was seen here this morning , It was slight, and the damage was small. If a man knew he was going to be hanged, he would certainly make eVery efi'ort to ’ prevent it. He would do everything he could and strain every new: to the last minute to get himself out of his predicament. Men have been saved from hanging after the rope was aroufid their necks. that are not so qu1ck that are even more cer- tain. The man who neglects his health, and who in sickness refuses to take medicine, really has the rope of disease arOund his neck. He will die if he doesn't throw it off. A man who would struggle against ha 'ng may yet be care ess about his health. He may be traveling straight to- ward consumption and " pay no attention to it, and yet death by con- sum tion is much more terrible than Ileat by hanging. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery will cure 98 per cent. of all cases of consumption. Consump- tion is likely to be caused by weakness and in its tum, it increases the weakness. The “Golden Medical Discovery ” is an invigorating, strength-giving and flesh- makmg medicine.“ It increasesthe ap e- tite, puts the digestive or ans 1n per ect order, purifies and enric es the blood, and builds up firm, healthy flesh.‘ In one cha ter of Dr. Pierce's great thousand page family octor book—“The People's Com- mon Sense Medical Adviser,” are scores of let- ters from people who have been cured of con- sumption, 1m ering cou hs,throat and bronchial diseases by t e use 0 “Golden Medical Dis- covery.” Their full names and addresses are given and their cases were generally pronounced opeless by the local doctors.
