tuTe TO call your attention to the signlhca-
tiOn of the action of the Chicago convention
upon the subject Of the tariff. The ma
jority.report seemed to recognize that some
regard might be had in tariff legislation Tor
the interests of the American w0rkingmen
aud that in making tariff reductions Con-
gress should be regardful of the labor and
capital connected Herewith. All these
declarations were stricken out by an over
whelming vote, and the resOlutl1ns adopted
must be construed to be an affirmative
declaration that Democratic legislation
upon the tariff will be without regard to It's
effect upon the wages of American working
men and without thought Of its destructive
effect upOn American industries. THIS
seems to me to constitute declaration more
extreme and more destructive than ever De-
fore promulgated by the Democratic party.
The Republican party may therefore appeal
with added confidence to Am erlcan work
ingmen and American producers to sustain
policy always highly regardful OF their
interests"
Among others communications were read
from Whitelaw Reid, Thomas c. Platt,
Governor Mckinley. Secretary Tracy aud
j. 5. ClaTksOn.
At the conclusion fof the ldtter-reading
Pr esident MeApine delivered the annual
address, predicting the brightest prospect
for Republican success. A recess was then
taken.
When the convention reassembled a resn-
luton. was offered recognizing the Women 5
National Republican Association as yaIaed
and welcome cO-Yorker in the cause OF good
government, inviting the association TO eX-
tend its organization into this State and re-
Questing the aid OF all the Republican
women in the State in the coming contest.
The resolution recommended the OrgaD,Za-
lion Of w0men's auxiliary clubs and pledged
hearty and active cooperation. Ihe 'Hn-
ventiOn adjourned until tomorrow. 04E

LONDON, June 28.-The second congress
OF the chambers Of commerce of the British
Empire opened this morning. The pro-
grsmme Of the congress includes a discus
sion of the commercial relations Of the
mother country with the colonies, with
special regard to the renewal OF the,Euro-
peeH treaties and the recent commercial
legislation in the United States. a resolu-
tion introduced by Lord Brassey declaring
that it was the opinion Of the congress that
practical arrangements should be devised TO
secure closer commercial union between
the mother country and her colonies and
dependencies was unanimously adopted.

that arrangements based upon pr0tection
would be politically disastrous sna the best

Faulty Construction Of the New Machinery Q

Faulty Construction Of the New Machinery Of
Some OF the Cruisers.
LONDON, June 28.-It is learned from
Portsmouth that the most recent steam
trials Of that grand old ship. the Hercules,
which has lately been fitted WITH entirely
new machinery, have not been at all salts
factory. Il Is seldom that the engines Of
battle-ship give any trouble, but in the
Hercules 1t IS not the weakness of the
boieT-tubes that is annoying every body, but
the excessiys vibration of her single screw.
The pattern Of this propeller must be
changed or It's position be moved further
aft. When this has been done the Hercules
will be the very best and most efficient Of
the ships Of our second line OF battle; as
VIII also be the Sultan when duly reno
Vated. The wonderful strength of TIE huls
OF the older iTOnclads Is in geat measure
due to the fact that they were constructed
OF iron aud not Of steel plates. They are
consequently thicker, and the work Of the
TiveteT when they were built was II more la
bOri0us probably more conscientious than it
Is now.
