$50 in all, which was all they needed
to raise in order to seat the church.
The quilt which the ladies made
brought $40. The new seats will prob

FOR SECRETARY OF STATE.
Tracy Named as the Possible Successor
of Blaine-Depew Called Upon.

WASHINGTON, June l5.-It has been
talked quietly IN administration circles
that the best solution of the unexpected
break in the Management of foreign af-
fairs through the sudden resignation of
Blaine would be the transfer of Secretary
Tracy to the head of that department
During the most critical periods of the
Chilian and Behring sea complications the
secretary of the navy was in constant
consultation with the president and de-
partment of state, and rendered efficient
service from naval and diplomatic point
of view. He is also well versed in inter-
national law, and could take up the
thread of negotiations where Blaine
dropped it, and thus be of immediate as
assistance to the president.
The president has made it known to
Depew that he would like to see him at
his convenience. Should the president
find Depew unwilling to leave his present
high and responsible duties and finally de-
termine to transfer Secretary Tracy, he
would take any suggestions from Depew
in reference to filling the Office of secre-
tary of the navy. As soon as Depew ar
rives there will be a conference concern
ing the political situation in New York.

ling and significant thing done by the

ment had taken place that rollcall of
states was demanded. This rollcall was
demanded by the Blaine men, and in tones
and terms OF defiance.
The Platform of the Convention,
after rehear,ing the benefits the country
has derived from Republican rule, re-
affirms the doctrine of protection and de-
nounces the efforts of the Democratic
party to attack the tariff laws.

reciprocity, favors bi-metallism, COM
mends the proposed international none
tary conference, and demands free and
unrestricted ballot.
1t denounces outrages in the southern
states, favOrs the extension of foreign
commerce by home-built ships, favors the
enactment of more stringent pauper and
contract immigration laws and legislation
for the protection of employees
1t expresses sympathy with home rule
in ireland aud protests against the perse-
cution of the Jews in Russia.
1t protests against trusts, approves the
of the free delivery system and
promises reduction of letter postage to
ceht
1t commends reform in the civil service,
favors the admission of the remaining ter
ritories and legislation favorable to the
Columbian exposition.
1t expresses sympathy with temperance,
and promises renewed care to the veter-

tion of the administration of President

by SlrUwer of Hailstones.
GREENFIELD, Mass, June ia tre-
mendous haiIstorm struck this town at

residence that was not demolished The

With one or two exceptions, there was not
a shop in town that did not lose several
hundred panes of glass Cutler, Lyons
& Field lost 500 panes, and Nichols Bros.
& Towle Co lost about the same number.
Many of the stones measured ten inches
in circumference and several inches in di-
ameter. Twigs and leaves were whipped
from trees by the stones, and the trees
look as though they htd Geen trimmed.
The damage was felt but little outside of
the limits of the village, and crops are not
sufficiently advanced to be materially
damaged, except i'll gardens. -.,,
