spoke of the Importance of the
present convention and of organized en-
deavor in the Republican ranks in the
coming election and especially Of the i'm
portance of the right kind of a man to
carry the party to victory. He referred to
Mr.. Douglass as hard worker like Plumb,
and an orator like Ingalls,. He was

should appoint the following COM
mittees of seven on credentials,
rules and order, permanent organ
ization and to select delegates to the
state convention and committee
of five TO select delegates to the congress

made to the effect that in case conven-
tion was held for congressman-at-large

IN BAD COMPANY.

The Democracy of Pennsylvania put in
nomination as their candidate for Cover
nor Col. William NJ. Singerly, editor and
proprietor Of the Philadelphia Record.
He is a good man in awfully bad COM
pany; not the company of the honest
Democratic voters of the State-for they
will not support him-but of its trucking,
iusincere Democratic politicians, who will
be repudiated at the polls by the greatest
majority ever given in the Keystone
Commonwealth since the old war days.
What lie and fraud, says the New
York Recorder, the national planks Of the
platform are which these Democratic
ostriches have framed The Republican
party and the Mckinley law respon sible
for the present industrial depression-for
the idle mills the starving mechanics, and
the ruin and havoc that have been
created in one of the most prosperous
communities in the entire civilized world
The statement is an insult to the intelli-
gence Of Pennsylvania.
From the very start Mr.. Singerly' s
campaign is a campaign of despair. He
will be beaten out of sight.

an extended conference at the Whita
House between the president, Secretaries
Gresham and Lamont, Major General
Schofeld, Attorney General Olney and
Major General Miles and his aide. Gen
eral Miles has been on leave for the last
two weeks, but had been recalled owing
TO the disturbances at and near Chicago,
and before returning to his post was sum-
moned I'm order that the situation might
be discussed and plans for possible con-
tingencies made more freely than would
be possible by wire or mail
At the White House conference the sit
uation was reviewed in detail, and the
views expressed were TO the effect that
while the strike was likely to fall Of its
own weight, and from lack of thorough
organization, yet IL was necessary for all
authorities to be on the alert and TO check
at the outset any overt and lawless act,
1t was held that the law was amply suf-
ficient TO authorize federal intervention
whenever conspiracy was shown, as well
as when mails were interfered with or the
interstate commerce act infringed.
No specific directions were given to Cen
erRl Miles, whose long service and bril-
liant record entities him to the utmost
confidence He left for Chicago this morn
ing to resume control of his forces concen-
trated near that point.
Both the attorney general and the sec
retary of war were anxiously looking for
news from the scene of the troubles last
night, but so far as could be learned no
! dispatches were received The officials
! expressed themselves as relieved and en-
couraged by the fact that it had not been
necessary to order out more troops.

WASHINGTON, July 9.-Senator Davis,
Of Minnesota, in response to a telegram
from d. d. McInnes, president of the Du-
luth division of the A, r. u, replied; "I
will not support Senator Kyle's resolu-
ton. 1t is against your own real welfare.
1t is also a blow at the security, peace and
rights of millions of people who never
harmed your associates. You are rapidly
approaching the overt act of levying war
against the United States, and you will
find the definition of that act in the con-
stitution. ! trust that wiser thoughts will
regain control. You might as well ask
me to vote to dissolve this government"

Arthur couuseis Moderation.

CLEVELAND, July BIN reply to nu-
merous letters and kilograms received
from engineers and other railway en-
ployes throughout the west asking that
the brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
participate in the big strike movement,
Chief p. NJ. Arthur of the latter organi-
zation, has sent out general reply cover
ing all such communications. He eau
tions the engineers not to let the preva-
lent strike fever" overcome their better
judgment, and reminds them that they
are, as rule, working under an agree
ment with the various railways for a
stated period. He says the engineers have
no grievance, and should not be influenced
by strikers to take part in a contest with
which they are not concerned Chief Ar
thur, however, will uphold engineers who
refuse to go out with green crews.

The sItuntlon at Decatur. 1ll..

DECATUR, Ills, July 9.-There has been
but little change in the strike situation
here, except the arrival Of companies of
the STAGE militia from Delavan, Lincoln
and Peoria. The Decatur company was
ordered to join them. The appearance Of
troops was great surprise here, as there
had been no act of violence beyond an at
tempt OF a striking brakeman to turn a
stopcock on an air brake. The troops
were ordered by Governor Altgeld appar-
emily on information from the delayed
passengers here who asked for assistance
in having trains moved, and from Sheriff
Perl, who telegraphed that he feared he
could not preserve order without rein
forcements. The railroad company has
apparently made no effort to do more
than move passenger train or two.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 3.-At the close of

The western divisions Of the Santa Fe

still at all points on the Pacific coast

Northern Pacific road being practically

would not be the least bit of surprise f
the Republicans carried New York state
by 200, 600 majority this fall. There is az
solutely no way for the Democrats TO es-
cape a crushing defeat, and they know it,
In the city Tammany Halls days of power
are numbered
There will be three candidates for
Mayor-two Democrats, Tammany and
anti Tammany, and Republican. The
last named will be chosen Mayor. Our
recent development of strength has been
astonishing. Since our organization,
based somewhat on the Philadelphia plan,
10000 Republican voters have come to the
front as against 1900 in the last cam
paign year, This means that the grand
old party will get complete control and
give the citizens an honest and economi-
cal administration OF the city govern
ment. Even the chickering's and jealousy
existing among our leaders cannot keep
us from winning These come from tie
fact that there are so many persons who
want to be candidates.

PARIS, July 1.-Two hundred navvies
yesterday marched through Choisy, Vile

them to quit the country. They were sue

The tax gatherers chief instrument in
