PEASANTS WANT PROTECTION
Fregch Farmers Cannot Compete
Against Live Americans.

Fregch Farmers Cannot Compete
Against Live Americans.
LONDON, Aug. 22.-There is consider
able agitation for higher tariffs through
out France, more especially in the rural
districts where the small peasant pro-
prietors complain bitterly OF the COM
petition in food products from America
and other countries. The duty on
wheat was some years ago fixed at 20
per cent. With this rate there is no
serious dissatisfaction, but the farmers
point out that instead of reaping the
benefits of higher prices for wheat from
this duty, they find that consumers, to
a very large extent, instead of using
their wheat substitute Indian corn and
cornmeal, which is much cheaper, and
which is admitted from America with a
nominal duty. They are clamOring for
an increase of the duty on corn and
cornmeal to make it correspond to that
on wheat. In the department OF the
Vosges the council general, which is
composed very largely of farmers,
passed resolutions to-day without dis
senting voice strongly urging the gov
ernment to this course. Some Of the
other industries. notably the iron and
steel. are taking advantage of the pOpu-
larity of this movement to join hands
with the farmers. with the view of
securing increased protection for their
own products.

LONDON. Aug. 22.-lt is officially an-
nounced that Mrs. Maybrick's sentence
has been committed to penal servitude
for life. The decision was based upon
the conflict of medical testimony as to
whether the poison found in deceaSed's
stomach was sufficient to produce death.
After prolonged consultation between
eminent lawyers and Mr.. Mathews. the
home secretary, the unanimous opinion
was arrived at that Mrs. MaYbrick had
administered poison to her husband
with intent to kill. No further appeal,
either for release from prison or Tor
mitigation of the sentence to life i'm
prisOnment will be entertained. Thomas
Booth, of Holton, until to-day was un-
known to fame, but this is the case no
longer. At bound he jumped into
public favor this morning by proclaim
ing in the newspapers that he was Will
ing and ready to hang in the place of
Mrs. Maybrick. Now that the death
sentence has been commuted. the pub
lie are anXiOuSly awaiting another. onef

THE NEWSPAPERS SATISFIED.
LONDON, Aug. 23.-All the newspa-
pers here are satisfied with the decision
in the Maybrick case and praise the
home secretary for the manner in which
he has discharged difficult task. The
Daily Telegraph urges the necessity for
a court of criminal appeal in order to re-
lieye the minister of the OnuS OF such
decisions.
MRS. MAVERICK NOT NOTIFIED.
LIVERPOOL, Aug. 22.-Up to midnight
last night no formal notice of the COM
mutation of Mrs. Maybrick's sentence
had been received by the prison officials
here. Mrs. Maybrick has not been in

testations to the contrary, and because II

lican policy to prevail unless we are man.
fully for it in all elections: because it is man.
ifest that this party offers the only free,
rightful and peaceful solution OF the race
and sectional differences which the DEM
ocrats persistently infiame: and because, in
everything, state and national, Republican
ism truly represents the popular aspirations
for American progress and prosperity. Fourth,
that we are in favor of the speedy restara-
ton of silver to its full monetary functions
by its full and unlimited coinage at the ma
tional mints, and as a step toward such ac-
ton we recommend the coinage of the max
imum amount now provided for by law to
$1,000, 900 per month. The fifth and sixth
planks pledge fostering care of oyster and
fishing interests, and oppose tax upon farm
products sold in cities Of the state. The sew
enth plank proclaims as false the charge that
the success of the Republican party Of Vir.
ginia would endanger the social order and
civilization Of the state. and place
ITS IGNORANCE AND VICE
over intelligence and virtue. Next follows
a preamble reciting premises which lead to
the following party pledge: That if it be
entrusted with the necessary power by the
people it will settle the oebt and the debt
question wholly, finally and promptly as 1t 1t
terms that will not add to the annual bur
dens of the people and will yet leave the
commonwealth ample means for the current
expenses for a frugal administration, for a
general maintenance of our admirable Sys-
tenn Of public free schools apd for munifcent
provision for our charitable institutions and
the care of our disabled soldiers.
At the conclusion of the reading and
adoption of the platform, a resolution
was adopted appointing a committee OF
ten to take steps to change the present
plan of party organization. Gen. Ma
hone was appointed on this committee.
Col. William Lamb, of Norfolk, then
arose and nominated for gOveInor-gen-
eral, William Malone. The nomination
was seconded by s. Brown Allen, OF
Staunton. r. A. Paul, colored, Of Rich
mOnd, who heretofore had been an anti
Malone Republican, also seconded the
nomination. After the speeches, Gen.
Malone was nominated by acclamation.
A committee was appointed to notify
Gen. Malone of his nomination. He
was introduced to the convention and
accepted the nomination in a brief
speech. The convention then proceeded
to complete it's work. Frank p. Blair
nominated Col. Campbell p. Slemp, of
Lee county, for lieutenant governor,
who was nominated by acclamatiOn.
Capt. Warren S. Lurty, of Harrison
lu>g; Robert NJ Mayo, of WestmOre-
land. and Robert T. Hubbard, of Buck
ingham, were placed before the conven-
tion for attorney general. The work of
the convention was finished after mid
night by the nomination of Lurty by
acclamation for attorney general. The
convention then adjourned sine die.

PUBLICISTS ORGANIZE.
National League for Protection OF
American Institutions.

American institutions.
SARATOGA, N. z, Aug. 22.-As re-
suit of consultations held with leading
publicists in forty-three states
and territories, a large and i'll
fluential conference of representatives
from different sections of the country
was held here to-day, resulting in the
formation of the national league for the
protection of American institutions.
Among those present were Hon. John
Jay and Hon. William Allen But

and E. A. Studley, Of Boston,; Rev.
DR.. Herrick johnson and Slason Thomp-
son, of Chicago; Rev. Drs. Chester and
Cary, of Washington; Rev. D. Mcleod.
of Indianapolis; Rev. Joseph Cook and
other we'll known public men,
lay and clerical. A constitution
was adopted, in which the OBJ
jects of the league are stated
as follows: To secure constitrl-
tional and legislative safeguards for the
protection of the common school system
and other American institutions. and to
prevent all sectarian or denOminatlOnal
appropriations of public funds. Its Off
GERS are Hon. John Jay. of New York,
president; Rev. DR.. James B. Dnnn, of
Boston, secretary, with presidents
from the several states and a board OF

HARRISON IN HOOSIERDOM.
The President Addresses an I'm.
mense ThrOng at IndianapOlis.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. 22.-The
two events that brought at least $4,000
Indianans to this city to-day were so
interviewer that it is hard to separate
the two. OF course in the laying of the
cornerstone of the soldiers and sailors
monument-a magnificent shaft to rise
295 feet from the center of Circle park
the Grand Army men were prominent.
But there also was President Harrison,
the center of thousands of eyes and the
recipient of enthusiastic expressions of
regard. The president slept so soundly
last night that the salute fired at the
arsenal, although it aroused nearly
everybody in the city, failed to awaken
him. 1t was o'clock before he and
Secretary Rusk and others of the party
sat down to breakfast. After breakfast
he received many friends, and at 10
o'clock the public came in to
greet him. This reception was in
charge of the citizens and &.
A. K. committee, and before it began
the crowd around the new Denison was
dense. For an hour the reception con-
tinued, and i'm the line were hundreds
personally known to the president.
With these he exchanged word or
two. There were also present many of
his comrades ana OtnerS OF tne army OF
the Union. To these he seemed to give
a special greeting. Nor were the
women and children wanting. At12:30
o'clock the president drove to the rem
devious of the procession. where he was
greeted by an immense thrOng. On the
movement of the line he was the center
of attention and continued so through
out. When the procession reached Cir
Gle park mass of humanity gave him
welcome. His place i'm the pro-
gramme followed at the base
of the monument was near the
end, but the great crowd waited
patiently to hear him. When he arose
the enthusiasm was more marked than
at any time during his sOjOuIn. AS he
proceeded in his speech the ap-
plause was frequent. The president at
the close of the exercises returned to his
hotel, and in the evening attended the
camp fire at TomlinsoD hall. There he
was again received with great enthu-
siasm by the 5000 people present. He
spoke briefly, and at the close the cheer
ing was great The president will take
part i'm the reunion of his old regiment
tomorrow, and at 3 o'clock in the afteF
noon leave for Deer park.

drew 81. Green followed in brief ad-
dress, nominating Charles A. Dana,
the gentleman from whose brain the
idea of holding fair first emenated,
and whose pen and purse have since
been actively engaged in giving the
plan his able support. EX-MayOr Grace
seconded this nomination, as did also
Mr.. Flower, who withdrew his name in
doing so. Mr.. Dana attempted to speak.
but his election was made by acclama-
ton, and before he could be heard,
he was escorted to the chair.
"Gentlemen of the committee" said he, ~
am profoundly grateful SO you tor the conf
dence and unanimity with which you have
received my nomination. The gentlemen
who named me were my candidates, but as
cannot be gratified by The selection OF either
of them thank you for the honor conferred
on me-"
John Foord was made secretary. and
an executive committee of seven was
named, which shall receive plans and
report to the full committee. Apropos
of proposed committee on sites, r. P.
Flower said that no subcommittee
should be appointed, but that each MEM
Der of the whole committee should con-
slider himself committee of one and
examine sites, so that each man will
have a thorough knowledge of every
site suggested. W. w. AstOr, speaking
on the subject of site, reviewed all the
the facilities necessary, and said that,
everything considered. the site would
be found not on New York island, but
in West Chester county, on both sides
of which there are large parks bounded
by the necessary water front. A mo-
ton to instruct the executive commit
tee not to consider any proposition for
the selection of site in Central park
was characterized as unnecessary and
premature, and was laid OH the table.
John T. Agnew was elected treasurer,
and then the committee adjourned.

of members should be respected. Take


the proceedings of this afternoon as
whole and there probably never was a
more boiStrouS wrangling. fiilibustering
or exciting convention ever held west
of the Atlantic ocean. 1t had
been announced that harmony existed
in the G. 0. p., but We gods! if the howl

possession of ArmOry hall to-day are
ever harmonized an avalanche Of mira
cles may be looked for. AS stated last
night some al delegates met and ad-
Justed the difficulties by ANONYMOUSLY
dropping all who it seems were the
marrow bone of dissenSlOn. This 1t
was thought
WOULD HEAL THE BREACH.
To all appearances it did, but it now
transpres that the whole scheme was
shreWd plan of the Miller combine to
throw the Allen men Off the track, and
before organization could again be per-
fected have their own faction so sOlidi-
fed that defeat would be impossible.
Instead of abiding by the plan
agreed upon at the caucus the
Miller men Immediately went into
private caucus in another part
of the city and proceeded to
to perfect and solidify their Or a1iZa-
UlOH DIS dSTocu upon DclOTt tuttIluS Gio
caucus. The Alien men became sus-
picious, and backed by resources which
would seem almost enough to accom-
plish presidential nomination, pro-
ceeded to persuade enough delegates to
indorse them to give control, and that
they made a noticeable gain over the
record of yesterday, was shown by the
close vote on permanent organization.
Failing to secure permanent organiza-
tion their Olly hope lay in delaying the
taking up of nominal ons, hoping
thereby to gain adjournment. They
resOrted to every mode known to parlia-
mentary practice to secure adjourn
ment Immediately after the permanent
organization. The Miller men recOg-
nized their danger and proved equal to
every emergency. and compelled the
opposition to swallow the bitter pill of
Miller's nomination.
