Delegates to the National Convention at
Pittsburg Hard at Work.
PITTsBURG, July 22.-The delegates to
the National Prohibition Convention are
arriving on every train and a considerable
amount of enthusiasm is manifested
among them, as well as the local friends
of the movement. DIR. Mcdonald, of Cali
fornia, seems to be in the lead for the
Presidential nomination, but the ad-
herents of G. T. Stewart, of Ohio.
and eX-Gov. St. John are working
hard for them. John b. Finch, of Ne
braska, is the only one mentioned as tenn
porary Chairman, and no one is named
for permanent Chairman except Miss
Frances Willard, who may not be able to
attend. The main feature of the platform
will be prohibition and home protection.
The resolutions will also favor civil SER
vice reform; will oppose all monopOliesand
special privileges; will declare in favor of
reserving public lands for actual sellers:
will denounce stock and grain specula-
tions, and take high grounds in all ques-
tons OF moral reform; will favor female
suffrage and denounce pOlygamy. The
delegates claim that the party can pOll
from 100000 to 100000 votes.
DUDLEY PUTS HIS FOOT IN IT,
w AShlNOION, July ZZ.-I1o course OF
Commissioner of Pensions Dudley, in at
tempting to induce the Prohibitionists at
Plttsburg to-day not to nominate a Pro
hibition ticket, but to indorse Blaine and
Logan, is regarded by politicians here as
fatuous. Commissioner Dudley recently
made visit to Blaine at Augusta. 1t is
probable that Blaine then commended
Dudley's idea that the Prohibitionists
should be induced not to nominate a sepa-
rate ticket, and, if possible, indorse
Blaine and Logan, but it is not
believed that Blaine gave his ap-
proval to any such clumsy plan as that
adopted by Commissioner Dudley. Dud-
ley was over anxious, and; therefore.
over-zealoUs. He might have arranged
with some of the delegates to the con-
vention, before they they got to Pittsburg,
to work up Blaine boom in the conven-
tion. Instead of this, he hazarded every
thing upon an attempt by himself to force
his release upon the convention. Dudley
feels so anxious about it because the Re-
pubficans of Indiana feel that if the Pro-
hibitiOnists nominate a national ticket,
their last claim Of carrying Indiana will
be swept away. A similar apprehension,
more or less serious, agitates the Repub-
licans III all the Western States where the
Prohibition movement hasmade any i'm

fell there were seven members of engine
company No. II on it, but all escaped

a STORY OF ALFoNso's TITLE.

The Curious Revelation of some His
toricai Searches in Family Mysteries.
The revival of the claims of tho Naun-
dorffs to the title Of lineal descendants of
Louis XVI, says Galignani's (Paris) Nes-
Senger, has set historical searches at work
to discover family mysteries in other
reigning houses. The writer of letter
from Bayonne in the Figaro makes the
revelation that King Alfonso is only a
usurper on the throne of Spain, and that
the real heir to the crown is the son of a
supposed elder sister Of Isabella, who was
secretly brought up in France. The story
is based on the idea that the birth Of Isa-
bella was preceded by that of another
Princess, who was declared to have died
when Queen Christine gave a second time
hope OF presenting Ferdinand III. with q
male heir. That hope was not, however,
realized, and the second daughter Isabel
la, succeeded to the throne. The first
daughter, says the writer, was broughtup
in France by a couple named Morales,
and was married to a timber merchant OF
Bordeaux named Lafargue, : who died
ruined, leaving his widow and a son.
For fifteen years Nine. Lafargue sup
ported herself and her son by keeping a
small wood and coal store at Bayonne,
until she inherited from Nine. Morales,
her adopted mother, sum of 5O,000f. and
some documents revealing the secret OF
her birth. She went TO Madrid to obtain
a recognition of her rights, but, as might
have been supposed, Queen Isabella was
not disposed to acknowledge the relation
ship, and had her expelled the country as
an impostor. So far the story may be the
creation of the writer's brain, but he then
enters into more positive matters, which,
IL true, it would not be difficult to prove.
In 1915, he says, Dom Pedro, Emperor of
Brazil, while travelling in Europe, went
to Bayonne under the pretext OF visiting
Biarritz, but, i'll reality, TO see Nine.
Lafargue, who was then keeping a mod
est grocer's shop. He was presented to
her by M. Camille Molinie. Consul for
Brazil, and embraced her in the presence
Of several people, calling her his s'dear
aunt" He drove her about in his carriage,
with her son, during the three days he re-
mained at Biarritz; and two months later
Nine. Lafargue and the young man took
passage on steamer for Rio JaneirO.
The son, who is 30 years of age, is now,
says the author of this curious narrative,
Colonel in the Brazilian army.

The Parade the Greatest Seen Since Vic

The Parade the Greatest Seen Since VIC
toria's Reign Began.
LONDON, July 22.-The TeIe0raph SAYS
that the demonstration of the trades
unions and others at Hyde Park yester-
day, in favor of the franchise bill, was the
most remarkable and imposing that has
been witnessed during Queen Vietoria's
reign. Over 100000 men marched in the
procession with decOrum rising to dig
nifty. 1t will not do for the Peers TO mock
or underYalue its peaceful, simple
methods, or decry it as paid show.
The Standard says that the behavior of
the people was admirable, but the demon
stration has not changed the political sit
uation in the slightest degree. The iudg-
ment OF the silent, modest section of the
community will not be affected. The Min
istry should concern themselves with the
sober majority, who stay at home and
think for themselves, instead of following
brass bands through the streets and pass
ing resolutions.
The Times this morning, referring to
yesterday, says: yesterdays spectacle
was unique of its kind. 1t was demon
stration made for the people by the peo-
pie. 1t gave every sign of enthusiasm
sALIsBURY's OPPOSITION.
The Marquis of Salisbury, addressing a
Conservative demonstration at Sheffield
to-day, said that it was absurd to suppose
that the members Of the House of Lords,
who were mostly landlords, had anv
cause to dread the agricultural laborers.
He insisted on the necessity of
appealing to the electors before the
franchise bill wgs passed, ana said
that the government insisted on
the franchise measure in its present shape
because it desires change Of the tribunal
before the matter was brought before the
Judgment OF the people. The government
was afraid to ask the verdict of public
opinion, where alone a verdict was legltl-
mately Obtainable, but summoned a pro-
cession, imagining that 100000 Radicals
amusing themselves in London on given
day expressed public opinion. This at
tempt to lsgislate by picnic had danger
Gus side. Nothing was more dangerous
for popularity governed State than an
attempt to decide public policy by de-
monstratiOns in the streets of London.
