REDS BADLY SCARED.
Thought They Were Delivered Up
to Be Executed.
All of Those Who Are Condemned
VIII Be Shot in the
Back.

MADRID. Jan. 3.-Telegrams from Bar
celona say that the ten arrested anarchist
leaders were handed over by the civil au-
thCrities to the military authorities owing
to the fact that the latter have declared
the prisoners were accomplices of Pallas
in the attempt upon the life OF General
Campos. and must consequently be tried
by martial law. The anarchists were ter
rOr stricken when handed over to the Off
GERS, as they expected they were being led
out for Immediate execution. 1t is believed
that the ten leaders of the anarchists will
soon be tried by cOurt-martial and will be
executed by being shot in the back, after
the manner followed in the case of PalIas.
VIENNA. Jan. 3.-The Government in
tends to make the manufacture of dyna-
mite and similar explosives state regu
lated monopoly under control Of the War
Office, with the view to hamper anarchists.
Several other powers are said to be con-
sidering the propriety of taking similar
steps.
LONDON. Jan. "a dispatch 20 the
Times from Paris says: There were nu-
merous fresh arrests of anarchists in Paris
Argenteuil, Bondeville. Lyons, Bourges

ONE GREAT ISSUE.
Keystone Republicans on
the Tariff.
WILSON'S BILL is VICIOUS.
FavorS the South and Strikes at
the North.
q. A. GROW FOR CONGRESS
The Platform Upon Which the Men
of Pennsylvania Will Go Into
the Fight.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Jan. 3.-The Repub-
lican State convention to nominate Con-
gressman-at-large convened here this
afternoon. Ex-senator Packer was made
permanent chairman. In his address he
laid the present distressed condition of the
country at the door of Cleveland's ad-
ministratioB, criticized it's Hawaiian pol
icy. and declared the Wilson tariff bill un-
American.
The platform makes the tariff the CEN
tral issue as the one which it requests the
voters to give the fullest possible express
sion on as matter Of vital national lmpOr-
tance. 1t denouncss the Wilson bill in the
following terms: The simple authorization
of this measure has closed thousands of
workshops, reduced TO idleness 1000, 900
workers, and souphouses now displace
former hives of industry. 1t has reduced
values TO an amount greater than the ma
tiOnal debt and will enlarge the free list
only on products which employed the
greatest number of American workmen.
1t will strike with equal cruelty the miner,
farmer, plumber, ironwOrker, glassworker
and the textile-w orkeT. and will transfer
the work from our own mills, mines and
workshops to those of foreign countries
1t is sectional in its authorship and all too
plainly aimed at Northern industries. 1t
strikes at Southern industries only where
the sane blow reaches the Northern indus
tries; fosters the plantation system and
destroys farms. Il is an attempt on the
part of the free-traders of the South to re-
duce the industries North to a level with
those in the South.
1t is vicious change from specific to ad
valOrem duties, the latter inviting foreign
undervaluations and leading to constant
accumulative frauds upon revenue.
1t is vicious in reducing instead of in
creasing the revenues. 1t will reduce the
revenues many millions of dollars, and
the reductions will grow with time. 1t is
vicious in compelling the Government to
make up these deficits by means of in
creased internal direct taxes. 1t is doubly
vicious in compelling its supporters to re-
sort TO the most odious war taxes or TO
borrow money. 1t is wholly erroneous in
the theory that the less work there is 60
do in this country the higher will be the
wages of wOrkmeu.
The protection policy conveys the op-
posing thought that the policy which Sc
cures the largest amount of work at home
is the one which secures the best wages to
the home workmen. II the Wilson bill
does all these things on the threat which 1t
conveys what will it do in its fruition /?
The platform then calls on Pennsylvania s
Representatives to fight for the defeat of
the bill, and closes with denunciation of
the "unpatriotic foreign policy of tue Dem
ocratic administration in the Haw allan
matter"
Bon. Galusha A. Grow was nomin ated
by reclamation for Congressman-at-large.
After brief speech of acceptance, In
which Grow denounced the tariff policy of
the Cleveland administration and ridi-
culed its position in the Hawaiian matter,
the convention adjourned.

PERU WANTS SOLDIERS.
Even Boys Twelve Years Old Are
Forced Into the ARMY.

New YORK. Jan. 3.-A Herald special
from Lima, Peru, says: The Government
authorities here are going to great lengths
in their efforts to levy soldiers To serve in
the regular army. Even boys IL years old
have been seized in the streets by recruit
ing details and dragged into the barracks.
where they are forced to enter the ranks.
1t was impossible TO bury some corpses
which had been taken to the cemeteries for
interment yesterday, as The grave-diggers
and labOrers employed at these places had
been forciblv taken away from their work
and without a moments warning hustled
off TO become soldiers.
The authorities are avenging themselves
upon certain writers for the press who
have made sstirical remarks of certain pro-
ceedings on the part of the Government
by impressing them into the army as pri-
Yates ana putting them through great
hardships in the way of preliminary drills.
Those classes of citizens who had been
exempt from enforced enlistment do not
escape at this time. and even fremsn and
national guardsmen are made to join the
regular forces.

WHITE FOR STAERLEY.
Has Never Withdrawn His Support
From That Gentleman.


WASHINGTON. Jan. "a San Francisco
paper of recent date published a story al
leging that Senator White, after having
recommended Waverly Stairley for Col
lector of Internal Revenue for the North
ern California District, sent letter 10
Commissioner Of Internal Revenue Miller
asking him not only to oppose Stairley for
the place, but to use every possible effort
to secure the position for Ed Leake, AS
slstant State Librarian and brother OF
Sam Leake, the politician and newspaper
man. Senator White said to THE CALL
correspondent tonight that he was at
loss to understand how such report could
have originated. He said he had never
Withdrawn his Endorsement Of Stairley for
this place, neither was he aware of Ed
Leake being an applicant for 1t. He had
understood. however, that Sam Leake
wanted the Sacramento Postoffice. He at
one time wrote a letter recommending
Sam Leake as a good man for some Office,
but whether or rot his letter had been
filed by Leake for any appointment under
the Treasury Department he did not
know. Possibly this was how the report
originated. Senator White Said he had
certainly not written to Commissioner
Miller to oppose Stairley's appointment
In fact he was at the Treasury Depart
ment to-day, and while there was given to
understand that Stairley's appointment
would be made within few days. perhaps
o-morrow.
The delegation has not been able to
agree on any one for the Surveyor Gen
eralship. Senator White is supporting
Green of the Colusa Sun. The other can
didates are Fassett and Ruddock of San
Francisco, formerly of Mendocino, and
the latter is being urged by Attorney
