New ORLEANS, August 26.-The Times
Democrats Starkville, Miss, special
says The state Alliance today unani-
mously adopted articles of impeachment
against the assistant state treasurer, w.
S. McAliister, charged with conduct un-
becoming an officer Of the Alliance. 1t
also adopted a resolution condemning
W. R. Hall. also resolution fully en-
dorsing the Ocala platform. McAllister
was expelled by the Alliance because Of
his opposition to the sub-treasury
scheme.
A Durant, Miss, special says: w. S.
McAllister, the ex-Alliance lecturer, and
DR.. G.. w. Macune, editor of the Ma
tional Alliance organ at Washington, ar
rived here this evening from Starkville.
In the hotel corridor McAllister, after
endeavoring to provoke quarrel with
Macune, finally struck him in the face,
dazing the doctor so badly that he
scarcely made any defence before they
were separated. McAllister claims
that Macune had a great deal to do with
the summary treatment meted out TO
him by the Alliance today, whispering
around in secret caucuees of Alliance
members, that he (McAllister) was
bought up by Wall street, and was ex-
erting his influence to destroy the Alli-
ance. McAllister states that Macune
sold out to Pat Calhoun, last year, in
the Georgia senatorial contest for $4,000,
and that Macune robbed the Texas Alli-
ance of $50 900 or more, while manager
of the Texas Alliance exchange.

are likely to occar, and no definite In

PHILADELPTHA, August 26.-The ques-
tion of admitting colored members into
the Patriotic Order of Sons of America
occupied most of today's session. All
the ballots resulted the same--59 for and
81 against it. Most Of the opposition to
the eliminating Of the word ''white'
from the constitution comes from the
Illinois and Ohio delegations, who voted
as unit against it. The sentiment of
the convention was strongly in favor of
admission, the Pennsylvania delegation
being unanimous in the colored mans
favor, but the arbitrary clause in the
constitution, requiring four-ffths vote
to change the constitution, enabled the
opponents to defeat the measure. Some
Of the friends of the measure changed
their votes so as to move reconsidera-
ton, and the question will be called up
again, probably. George P. Smith was
nominated for national president.
