Growing Out of the Hatred of
Foreigners.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-Some idea OF
the feeling entertained by the Chinese
toward foreigners who have caused
anxiety for the safety Of American mis-
sionaries is given in the report of the
Canton plague received today at the
marine hospital bureau. Consul Charles
Seymour, writing under date of June
%, says: "Natives are trying to blame
foreigners for the plague, and have got
ten up riots in Canton and the sur
rounding country"
The consul reports that the plague
does not seem to yield to medical treat
ment; that the mortality is 80 per cent
of fhe cases and the deaths since March
number at least 10000. Cholera has
made its appearance in Canton in an
epidemic form, but is not yet so threat
ening as to cause special precautions to
be taken against it.

ACCORDING to story which is creat- ing great sensation in France the Due d'Orleans, the supposed son of the Comte de Paris, is not really his son, but the child of an Italian jailer sub stituted secretly for the daughter born to the wife of the comte.
 A REPORT has been cabled from Lon don that on November 0, the birthday of the prince of Wales, the queen of England will abdicate in favor of her eldest son, who will be acclaimed as Edward VII.
 A FREIGHT train was wrecked on the Chicago X Northwestern railway near Woodstock, H., and five men were killed.
 A FEW of the veterans at the Sol diers' home at Dayton, O., visited the dives in the vicinity of the institution on the 29th, having been paid their pension money the previous day. The next morning three of the old soldiers were found robbed and murdered and their bodies lying in the road. The detectives have fifty suspects locked up.
 GEN. A. NJ. WEST, who was on the greenback ticket for vice president with Gen. Butler in 1884, died at Holly Springs, Miss, on the 30th, aged 76 years.
 A SPECIAL dispatch on the 29th from Shanghai says: The Chinese army at Wi Ju, on the Value river, which is op- posing the advance of the main Jap anese army in Corea, has mutipied The men are throwing away their arms because they have no ammuni- tion, being cut off from their base of supplies The Chinese defenses have completely collapsed, and are now only farce. There is a panic in Picking, and the very name Japanese inspires terror everywhere. China is perfectly helpless.
 A DISPATCH from Pittsburgh, Pa, O the 29th said that every tin-plate fac tory in the country would shut down at night and there was no indication as to when they would be again put in operation. There was wide differ ence between manufacturers and work men on the subject of wages. Ar Chaska, 20 miles south of Minne- apolis, Minn., Louis D.

decade. It was strange situation of the presiding officer of convention, evidently against his will, being forced to accept unanimous nomina- ton.
 It was nearly 2 o'clock when Chair man Hill called the convention to order. The committee on permanent organiza- tion then reported recommending Sem ator Hill permanent chairman which was adopted, and the committee on resolutions made a report.
 The resolutions congratulate the peo- pie upon the repeal of obnoxious legis- lation by a democratic congress-; con- demn the unsound legislation that drives out gold and threatens silver standard; rejoice at the repeal of the sherman law and that faith has been restored in the ability of the govern ment to maintain constant parity be- tween its gold and silver coinage; that by the repeal of the Mckinley tariff law the taxation of the many for the benefit of the few has been notably di- minished, but deprecate the engrafting upon the new tariff bill of the income tax feature; ask for the rigid enforce ment of all laws to prevent and con trol trusts, and indorse ''the honest purpose and high ideas which have characterized the administration of President Cleveland and pledge their earnest support in all his efforts to se- cure the enactment of democratic measures and the carrying out of demo- cratic policies"
 When the nominations were reached the name of John Boyd Thatcher was presented for governor, so was the name of Senator Hill, at which the conven- tion went wild. Senator Hill declined the honor, but the delegates refused to listen to him and upon roll call every county cast its vote for Hill, and he was made the unanimous choice of the con- vention for governor. Hon. Daniel B. Lockwood, of Buffalo, was nominated for lieutenant governor and James G. Gaynor. for judge of the court of ap- peals. The convention then adjourned.
