HAROUN NAL UP-TO-DATE,
(DaiL4 TeIeqraph. Sept. nm

From BudapeSth our correspondent writes
The Immortal Caliph Haroun. Al Raschid, dur
ing whose beneficent reign Sidbad the Sailor
saw and did such extraordinary things, made
it a practice to disguise himself as a simple
citizen and mix with his people in their plea
sures and amusements in order to be able the
better to see himself as others saw him. And
he generally succeeded. Angels, too, have
been known to dwell among men once in
a while, Just to see how things We're going on,
and on occasion to lend a helping hand. But
heretofore, it would not appear that history
records any instances of personages lower
than celestial spirits or monarchs rcsort1ng to
this use of the incognito. Nor did there seem
any opening for other people. Why. for in
stance. should a yizier disguise him
self as a subject, seeing that without
any disguise he is this and nothing
more? 1t was reserved to a HnnSa-
rian Minister to break fresh ground in this
direction a few days ago. Count Anlor Fes,
t%etics, the new Minister of Agriculture IN
the Kingdom of Hungary, is a mea of lnltla-
tive and enterprise, and it panied him to no
tice that the Socialistic movement was making
progress in the district of Atfold. He in

official minds ''Demagognes, agitatorS, &c"

measures against the Socialists &ithout hav-
ing first discovered tie origin of their discon'
tent and the secret of their success. he re-
solved to 80 among them as a friend and to
hear what they might have to say on the sub

cation with a lawyer, who had studied the
matter on the spot-Dr' Szelestey- from
whom he received letters of recommendation
to various. Socialislic leaders, among Others to

police, and to some who are about to be tried
for melting to class hatred. The Minister dis
guised himself completely, and presented
himself to the ~demagogues, who received him
very cordially, and initiated him into the
whole history of the movement. They told
him that for years past a large number of
workmen had been employed in constructing
the dams which are destined to protect the
district from foundations, but that these works
being now finished, they were thrown out of
employment, or practically so, as they have
only eighty days work in the year They are

PENNSYLVANIA DEMOCRATS
Endorse the Administrations OF President
Cleveland and Governor Pattison.

HARRISBURG. Jan. 10-The state
Democratic convention for the nOmi-
nation of candidate for congressman
at large was called to order shortly
after II o'clock today by ex-Congress-
man Gillespie of Mercer. The officers
and committees of the September con-
vention retained their old places.
James Benton Hancock of Frank
lin was nominated by reclamation for
congressmen-at-large. Mr.. Hancock
entered the convention and was EN-.
Enthusiastically received aud made a
speech endorsing the platform and &C
cepting the nomination. The conven-
ton adjourned at 80 p. IN.
The following platform was adopted
by today's Democratic State conven-
ton
The re-assembled representatives of
the Democratic party of Pennsylvania
reatfirm the declaration OF principals
adopted in state convention Sept. Q,
1898. They again declare their faith
in the platform of the Chicago con-
vention, upon which the Democratic
party gained control of the legislative
and executive branches of the govern
ment in 1893. They renew their party
expressions of confidence in the lead
ership of President Grover Cleveland,
they cordially indorse his administra-
ton and commend the courage, firm
ness and uprightness with which it
has maintained the faith of the gov
ernmeAt at home and upheld its honor
and dignity abroad.
They again endorse and approve the
wise, economical and honest admins
tration of Governor Pattison, which
has kept its pledges and has been true
to every interest of the commonwealth.
Recognizing the issues involved in the
nomination made today to be directly
and specially sci cted 10 formulate lee.
lslatien, the Democracy of Pennsyl-
vania declare that:
tlrst-The present disturbed con-
dition of the finances of the country is
natural and inevitable consequences of
long years of Republican admlniutra-
ton, vicious legislation, inequirable
and oppressive tariff laws, wastfulness
and protilgacy in public expenditures
and cowardly financial makeshifs are
responsible for the prostration of
American industries, arrangement of
currency and deficit in federal reye.
nues.
Second-Extravagance of the Repub.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1894-01-18

lican congress tolerated and abetted
Republican administration Of execu-
tive department wasted a surplus Of
more than 800, 100000, which had
been gathered into the public treasury
by the Democratic administration, and
left a deficit of over $4,000, 600 in its
stead.
Third-The evasive legislation on
the currency by successive Republican
congresses debased public moneys,
rendering the standard OF values
shifting and uncertain, disturbed con-
fidence and wrought financial disaster
from which the slow but sure recovery
of the country is mainly due to coin
age, fidelity nd consistency OF a DEM
ocratic president.
Fourth-Three years. experience of
Mckinley Republican high tariff has
resulted in general business depression
and in the wreck and ruin to manu-
featuring aud commercial interests.
The result has fully justified the Dem
ocratic opposition to that measure and
demand for It's repeal which found
expression in che overwhelming
Democratic victory of 1892.
Fifth-Every consideration of poll
tical honor, fidelity and expediency
demands that the pledges upon which
that victory was won shall be faith
fully aud fully kept and that the
Democratic congress shall revise the
tariff by promptly passing the Wilson
bill reported by the ways and means
committee, to the end that raw mater
ials necessary to American industries
shall be admitted free of duty so that
tariff taxes shall be lowered
that import duties shall be distributed
with a view of tightening the burdens
of the many instead OF protecting q
favored few.
Sixth-We denouEce as a crime
against the business interests of the
country, against the prosperity of the
people, against the welfare of the
workingmen, the efforts of the Repub-
lican minority in congress to delay and
to prevent a settlement of the tariff
question We call upon our Republi
cans in congress so to act and vote as
to promptly determine this issue in
accordance with Democratic promises
and Democratic professions.
Seven5h-Speedy and thorough re-
vision of the tariff on the lines of pol
icy enumerated by the last Democratic
national convention and adopted by
Democratic president, will revive the
industries of American manufacture,
enhance the profits of the American
farmer, increase the wages of the
American mechanic and enlarge their
purchasing power, stimulate our eX-
mort fro do aDI rnStDra Our sDnrnma
in the commerce of the seas.
Eighth-To these principles and poll
cies we pledge our candidate for con-
gresham nominated today their sup
port. We invite all electors of Penn
sylvania who would record the vote of
their state in congress for an enliSht-
ened, liberal and progressive system.
We must quicken the prosperity of
our commonwealth and promote the
general welfare of the country

Expe cted News From Honolulu.

FAN FRANCISCO, Cal Jan. 1.-THE
Pacific mail steamer City of Picking
is expected here hourly with impor.
tant Hawaiian advices. The weather to
day is very thick and the Peking can
not be seen until well inside the heads.
Owing to the recent loss of the City
OF New York it is understood the Pac-
Inc Mail Steamship Company officials
have given strict instructions to COM
manders of all steamships of that line
not to attempt to enter or leave this
port unless one shore can be seen.
Consequently it is doubtful even if
the Picking will attempt to pass into
the harbor until the weather clears.

to these for loan certificates bearing 3

expression of O'Neills personal views
as he discussed the subject with Sec
rotary Carlisle and Assistant Secretary
Hamlln before introducing the bill.

The Coughlin Trial.

CHICAGO, Jan. 10-A lively discus
sion between counsel in the Coughlin
case today was caused by the mention
of the name of the late Lawyer John
F. Beg senior guardian of Camp 20
of Clan ma Gael. The assistant states
attorney said the name should not be
mentioned unless the prosecution was
allowed to show Beggs connection
with the case, whereupon Judge Wing
angrily retorted: Gas prejudiced as
was the former Jury beyond all prece-
dent, they could not convict Lawyer
Beggs, aid his name should have no
more connection with this case" The
court allowed Judge Wing to proceed,
but that did follow up the subject
to any extent. Frank Scanlon re-
peated the testimony he gave at q
former trial regarding DR.. Cronin's de-
parture in buggy drawn by a white
horse. The prosecution is making dill
igent search for two of its old wit
nesses, Major" Sampson and Willis
Lynn, but with very poor success
Major" Simpson testified at the
former trial that he was asked by
Coughlin to slug Dr.. Cronin. George

former trial testified that he overheard
Coughlin remark, "a North Side
Catholic is talking too much and will
get the worst of it" has refused to sub.
stantiate his evidence at the present
trial
