FORMED A THIRD PARTY.
DISTINCT ORGANIZATION DECIDED
ON AT CINCINNATI.

The Name of 1t to BE ''The Peoples
for Framed and Adopted-Prohibition
Plank Not in It-National Central
Committee Appointed.
CINCINNATI. May 21.-A little political
giant has been born into the world.
1t is the literal truth to state also that
no more wonderful exhibition of lung
power at natal event was ever heard
than i'll the Cincinnati Music hall dur
ing the afternoon.
From the moment in the morning
when the great gathering of farmers
and wageworkers voted eagerly for max
ing the formation of a national execu-
tive committee part of the programme,
the result was, to certain extent, fore
gone. AL doubt was removed in ten
seconds when toward evening, after
scenes of almost unprecedented turmoil,
the fresh, clear countenance of Ignatius
Donnelly. Of Minnesota, chairman of the
committee ON resolutions, beamed from
the rostrum on the struggling, yelling
mass of humanity in the convention,
and Donnelly, with dignity beftting
his words, announced that the commit
tee had become a unit for starting a
third party in the nation
Without Another Instant's Delay.
1t was marvellous to see the effect on
delegates and spectators alike. Fatigue,
foreboding, quarrels vanished as if
struck out by lightning. Breathless and
hushed, the listening hundreds waited
as Donnelly continued earnestly: I'VE
think we have performed work that
will affect the politics of the country for
the next fifty years.
That was enough. The audience
could contain itself no longer, but with
dynamic force exploded in terrific
thunder of applause, which continued
until the reading of the platform was
begun by Robert Schilhng of Wisconsin.

Charleston Headed for Peru.

WASHINGTON, May 23.-The fact that
the Charleston has not yet reported he4
arrival at Panama is regarded by the
navy department as an evidence that
the vessel did not deyiate from her
course to go into Panama, but has
passed onward and sQpthYard. So no
news is expected from her until she
reaches one of the South American
ports probably Payta OF Callao, Peru.
Meanwhile there Is absolutely no news

AQuestion of Riparian Rights.


Several days ago Mr.. Thomas P. Morgan, the
contractor for dredging the James Greek canal.
wrote letter to the Commissioners requesting
that the east side Of the canal from the t4rmi-
nation of the wall to the Eastern branch
be staked out and that the harbor
line from Buzzard's Point to the
mouth Of the canal be also marked
by a line of stakes. He says he finds, by a
sane Asylum. that there 10 at low tide less than
four feet of water and that other dumping
ground must be located. Capt. Lusk. in his
report upon the case, states that Mr..
Morgan has been authorized to dump on
the south side of the navy ward
the Government Hospital for the Insane and
that it appears that his scows only dump from
the bottom, and on this account require
considerable depth of water. He says he
believes IL the scows were 30 ar
ranged to dump from the side the din
Guilty would be obviated. To dump on the
north side Of the navy yard channel, rs pro-
posed by Mr.. Morgan, Capt. LusL SAYS involves
the question Of going upon private property,
which he does not believe the District
can safely authorize or I'm any way
sanction without becoming liable for dam
ages. He recommends that the stalking out
suggested by Mr.. Morgan be done only upon his
producing the written consent Of all the lot
owners concerned to the dumping within the
area named and upon the construction Of suit
able bulkhesds to retain the material deposited
so AS to prevent its running back into the cham
mel As way out OF the difficulty
Col. Robert has recomme nded the reference of
opinion as to the Districts responsibility for
damage caused by dumping material at any
point selected by the contractor, in accordance
with the contract.

Their Way of Enjoying Themselves.

In the Criminal Court. Judge Hagner yesterday
Henry Smith. coiored, was tried for keeping a
disorderly house at No. SO Fenton place. The
evidence was to the effect that colored people
assembled there Saturday nights, played cards
and drank liquor and the place was rsided on
sunday morning. Smith admitted that some
of his fellow workmen came there and played
cards, but he allowed none but good class of
people to come and he denied that there was
gambling there.
During the argument Mr.. Kicks said that
different people have different modes Of enjoy
ment. Society people had their receptions. the
Indians their ghost dance. In some churches
the people sit quiet and listen to organ and
sermon, and in others all il motion and the
whole congregation pat foot, aud poor old
Smith and his fellow hodcarriers had their way
and it did not disturb the neighbors.
Mr.. Clagett said it was just such place as
this that kept people poor-a house open where
people play for ten cents an hour and buy
Hquor-and ii was no wonder that those who
participate were said to be poor men.
The court said, in charging the jury. that it
was not the first time the people Of the West
End had been spoken Of, and in reply he would
simply say that in this court there would be no
more respect shown them than other people il
they broke the Law, and judicially they were
entitled to Just 80 much respect a. any other
person in the community.
The jury found verdict Of guilty. Notice
OF motion for new trial was given.

Washington and Its Million.

Gath" IN Cincinnati Enquirer.
/ sometimes think that in thirty years there
will be Loo, 900 people in and about wsshing-
ton city, and that here will be the second or
third city Of the whole land. Analogy might
teach that this will be the case. for the Potomac
river is far more consequential than the Thames
and the Chesapeake bay, and the pathways Of
our coastwise commerce outside Of it are quite
as important a. the English channel, the Straits
of Dover and the North sea. II was the opin-
ion of Dewitt Clinton that the Chesapeake
would be the great central water Of the United
States. its river sources lying near Niagara and
Lake Ontario and along the base Of the Ale
gheny mountains. All the rivers of England
united have not the mileage and the channel
room Of the navigable waters Of the Chess
peaks. The cities Of the Chesapeake have a
united population Of aboat 100000 people,
ard the day is not very distant, perhaps, when
the Delaware bay and the Chesapeake win be
continuous waters by canal intercourse, and
when the Middle Chesapeake will have its water
pathway to the open Atlantic opposite the city
of Baltimore. -.

ANNA DICKINsON's ILLNESS.



somnia.
A special dispatch to the New York Times
from Wilkesbarre. Pa, says: The people of the
Wyoming valley were shocked this morning
when they read in their papers that Miss Anna
Dickinson was insane and had been taken to
the Danville Insane Asylum by DIR. Hillman Of
West PittstOn. The fact that the story was
published in the Scranton Republican gave it
weight as that paper 10 noted for reliability.
Miss Dickinson is also intimately acquainted
with the editor Of the Republican and the sup
position was that the article was founded on
fact.
As result of this the bell of the Dickinson
mansion was ringing all day. Clergymen
lawyers. business men and reporters focked to
the house. The general visitors were received
in the main parlor. Miss Susan f. Dickinson,
Miss Annals sister. dictated note to the re-
porters, in which she said:
THE report published in the morning paper
was cruel and greatly exaggerated. My sister
was not insane. 1t was true she was ill and had
been i'll for some time, but she was not out Of
her mind"
She wanted the reporters to make particu-
lar note of that fact.
what is the nature of your sisters illness?'
was asked.
''She is suffering from insomnia, but her ply
stefan says change of climate will bring her
around all right again"

doubt that Miss Dickinson il violently insane.
The conductor Of the train that carried her to
Danville Asylum was seen tonight. His name
il John Baldwin. Miss Dickinson boarded the
train at West Pittson. She was under guard
As soon she WAS the train she asked Mr.
Baldwin to send dispatch for her,
Where do you want it sent?' asked the con-
ductor.
..send it to Jay Gould and tell him want a
million dollars at once
"All right" said the conductor.
RI want you. also,' Miss Dickinson continued
ITO send another message to Gov. Pnttison
Tell the governor we must have universal suf-
frage."
1t was also learned tonight that Miss Dickin-
son became SO violent last week that she chased
her sister and servant girl ont of the house
with u butchers knife. It WAS then decided to
put her under restraint. Last Monday abe
went to a drug store and purchased $40 worth
Of drugs. The same day she sent of about hfty
kilograms to various theater managers asking
for engagements.
Miss Dickinson Ia the plaintiff and Matthew
Quay the defendant in a suit now pending in
the New York courts. Miss Dickinson claims
that Quay made contract with her to pay her
$1,000 il she would deliver speeches in favor Of
Harrison. The speeches were delivered, but
Miss Dickinson received only part Of the con-
tract money.
