CHICAGO, Nov. 2l.-Arepor has gained

being none other than fully defined
plan whereby Los Angeles, CAL, gets the
next big convention. Her prospects are
bright, and the matter is in capable
hands. Several cities on the coast have
made large bids for it, but Los Angeles
is far ahead OF them all. Prominent

entitled to it, being centrally located,
and having abundant facilities for hand

for convention purposes, among them
being Hazards pavilion, the City hall,
and several large store rooms, which
con be turned to good use. By the way,
the convention we refer to, is the con-

Special to the HERALD

New YORK, Nov. 21.-It can truly be
said that wonders never cease. In these
days it seems to be impossible to have
anything happen that causes consterna-
tion and excitement to last longer than
few hours. But discovery was made
here this morning which will cause the
entire world to pause and wonder, for it
is truly wonderful. The Atlantic ocean
is the cause. An incoming ocean liner
was boarded this morning by the GUS
tomary officials, when the captain in
formed them that the day before, while
passing through the gulf stream, they
were surprised to find plenty'of fresh
water, which lasted until they reached
the lower bay. Many reasons were
given and surmises made as to the prob
able cause for the strange and startling
phenomena, but the nearest is that the
water is undergoinga great change and
that submarine company is running
salt factory in the bottom of the sea.
This seems very plausible, as the price
of salt has taken a tumble in the past
few weeks, and is caused no doubt by
the large output of this big company
But that is nothing nothing at all,
compared with the gigantic tumble in
prices that has taken place at the great

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-The national
Republican committee meets tomorrow
morning. After organization IS effected
the resignation of Chairman Quay will
be acted on and some one chosen as his
successor. After noon the delegations
from the various cities desiring to enter
tain the national Republican convention
next year will be heard. A member OF
the committee tonight said each delega-
ton will probably be allowed an hour for
argument. Then the committee will
ballot until a city has been selected.
The Omaha delegation has chosen
Judge G. r. Scott to present Omaha's
claims. Cincinnati will be presented by
Ex-Governor Foraker. Major Mckinley
is expected tomorrow, and his support
is expected to materially assist Cincin.

followed by Detroit.
II is now stated that Senator Hiscock
will present New York's claim, assisted
by Hon. J. S. Fassett and Senator Haw-

Campbell of Illinois will, at the proper
tee Chicago's willingness to entertain
the convention, should the committee
decide that it is the proper city in which
to hold it. The Pittsburg delegation has
not yet arrived, the train having been
delayed.
San Francisco's claim will be present

G. Newlands and possibly others.
The delegates tonight concede that
there will be no choice on first ballot,
but the various delegations are hopeful
that their cities will be selected on
second. s
The hotel lobbies and the head
quarters OF the various delegations were

are putting forth their best efforts, and
tonight are conferring with their fellow
delegates. 1t is difficult to say which

There are no marks of violence upon

return for luncheon, and it was accord

however, she returned, and sur
prise being expressed, she said: eyes
I've come home, and am not
going to work any more." Her

not going to work again that day. Fri

Morgan defended himself against the
accusation of boodlery and manipula-

He presented an open letter, which was

scored the Anarchists unmerci-
fully, exposing their evil influence
over socialistic gatherings, and declared
that henceforth there should be no con-

Anarchists; that the reputation of
anarchism by the European labor move
ment, as illustrated in the expulsion of
it's representatives from the Brussels

should be followed by Socialists through
