CIyctSSAT1, June 2e.-The Prohib.
itlon party put in hard days work
ending late tonight, the national con-
yention beginning at 10 a. m. and hold
ing three sessions, morning, afternoon
and evening.
Asa result q permanent organization
has been effected with Col, Ell Ritter,
Of Indiana, as presiding officer, and
Sam Small, the Georgia evangelist, as
secretary, and tomorrow the ccnyen.
ton will be ready to pass upon tho
platform and nominate candidates for
President aud Vice President.
Probably tue most unusual and strik-
ing scene OF the convention was tho
opening OF the second session with
PRAYER by n Catholic priest - Rev.
Father Martin Mahonoy, OF st. Paul,
MINI. 1t was, with one exception, tile
only instance on record in which q
Roman Catholic clergymanhas ofliclated
at national political convention in
the United States. Father Mahoney,
who is ono OF Archbishop 1reland's
assistants, it appears Is q regularly
elected delegate to tho convention from
Minnesota, and has been an active pro-
hibitionist for fourteen years. He de-
livered the prayer at the personal
solicitation OF Chairman Dickie, OF tho
national Prohibition committee, and
ex.Governor st. John, Of Kansas, the
temporary chairman OF the convention.
tits hardly possible to canvas, Pro.
hibition convention accurately, but in 2
general way, Bidwell, OF California,
seems to haye material lead OF the
other candidates for the presidential
nomination, while Demorest, OF New
YORK, is hardly as prominent.
The platform committee is at work
and has big task before it. The pro-
ceedings before the platform was sert
to formulating subcommittee of five
show that there is decided feeling in
favor of the Prohibitionists taking
strong and advanced grounds on various
public questions other than prohibi.
tion, and broad, radical platform Is
quite likely and u hot fight over it may
occur on the floor Of the convention.

Word was received in Omaha to-day
that Senator Stewart, Of Nevada, las
written a letter absolutely bolting, the
Republican party. 1t was also inti-
mated that Senator Jones, his colleague,
would do likewise, and as conse-
uuence the Stewart boom received a
little impetus. Still the Weaver seni-
ment leads. H..
General S. II. yanwyck said: "If
Gresham positively refuses to allow the
use Of his name. ]. B. Weaver, OF Iowa,
will be the nominee Of the convention.
OF course We are all for free silver and
will adopt free silver platform. In
that case we will carry Colorado, Ne.
yada and other silver states and
will be able to throw the
election into the house OF
representatives which does not neces-
sarily mean Democratic President as
there arc plenty of free silver Democrats
in the house. OF course it is possible
the convention may take up more

PIrrsBuReH, June 29.-At s o'clock
this afternoon the seventeenth conven-
ton Of the Amalgamuted Association of
Iron and Steel Workers adjourned sine
die, and tho organization having ap-
proved the work done by its representa-
tives, is ready to stand or fall by the
position now taken. Tho real work be.
gins from this day on, and the dOinea
of the next two weeks vii. tell the tale.
Tomorrow midnight the western iron
and steel scales of '0l-'99 will cease to
be in existence, and all mills desiring
to continue at work can only do SO under
the scales OF '02-'03.
The situation, in a nutshell, right on
the eot the great shut down, is threat
ening. Tho iron workers OF this and
the Nahoning and shenango valleys
are at loggerheads with the association,
while affairs present q serious aspect Ut
Homestead. Many dark clouds have
cast their gloomy forms over the iron
and steel workers in years gone by, but
it is admitted on all sides that never
before in the history OF tho Amalga-
mated Association has it been confront
cd with such state of affairs as now
exist. The only silver lining to be dis.
covered lingering about the warlike
clouds is to be found in the announce.
mont that an amic0ble settlement will
likely bc reached with the association
OF iron and steel sheet manufacturers.
Tomorrow afternoon the iron wage
committee will 20 to Youngstown. at
which place it will confer with. the Ma
honing and Shenango valley manutac.
turers' association. There is little hope
OF settlement being reached, since
the valley employers ask for as heavy
ifnot heavier reductions than the Pitts
burgh manufacturers. One conference
was hold in Pittsburgh last week, but
it was decided to postpone further dis
cussion until after tho convention. The
valley delegates in attendance at the
convention do not believe that satisfac-
tory terms will be arrived at to-mor-
row. The hostile expressions OF the
manufacturers has caused the delegates
to feel chary. Although q strong fight
was made by the visiting delegations to
have next years convention held in
youngstown or in Cleveland, the local
delegates again scored their point, and
as in the past the convention will be
| held in this city.

Base Ball Protest.
To the San Antonio LIGHT:

To the San Antonio LIGHT:
DEAR SIR:-With your permission
/ would like to have some little of
your space TO enter my protest against
the base ball that is now being melted
out to US. / am an admirer OF the
sport and was contributor to the
uniform fund and have otherwise as
sisted in promoting our clubs well
fare. In the past two games we have
been led to believe that honest and
meritorious bali woulu be played. II
any effort to this end has been made
have failed to perceive the same and
will venture the assertion that all
spectators will concur with me in
cOndemning the spirit that prevailed
among the players. Another objec-
ton is that less than one half of the
men on the grounds wear uniforms.
Why is this? The different clubs cer-
tainly realize that such q proceeding
is invariably the subject Of very Sc
we're criticism. This indifference to
opinion will neither make them
friends or dollars and cents. While
making these objections l wish to
state that / have considered every
thing and credited all allowances. 1t
is true that ball is just starting and q
great deal is not to be expected until
a more perfect organization is accom-
plished. The chief "kick" is in the
misrepresentation practiced upon the
suffering audience. If speedy
change is not wrought fear that but
few will care to pay the admission.
