HARDIN STANDS FIRM
HE WILL CONTINUE TO CONSTITUTE
THE PLATFORM AS HE PLEAsEs.
Long Conference of Kentucky Demo-
Gratis Ends I'm Determination to
Support Their Candidates.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Aug. A.-The confer
ence of leading Democrats called for to-day
met here at the State headquarters at 80
o'clock behind closed doors. The air was
full of rumors all the morning, but none
could be traced to any authoritative source.
1t had been suggested that there would be
Wholesale resignation of members of the
central committee. The sound-money DEM
ocrats outnumber the silver men on the
committee, but majority of the committee
are personal friends of Hardin. Another
rumor was to the effect that unless Mr.
Hardin retracted and modified his recent
utterances or withdrew from the ticket at
least three nominees would themselves
withdraw in order to enable Mr.. HARDIN
friends to construct a consistent free-silver
ticket. General Hardin and all of the other
candidates on the Democratic ticket were
present at the conference. General Hardin
made a speech full Of vigor. He did not re-
cede one iota from the position he has taken
on the financial question. He contended he
was standing on the platform, and was not
in conflict with his party. Hardin said in
his speech to the committee that he would
submit to a caucus Of the party, but he
would not yield to dictation He asserted
his ability to construe the platform, and
said he abides by his utterances which ha ye
been published, and he has nothing to re-
tract or modify. When he closed there was
warm applause from the free-silver men
present.
All of the candidates, with the exception
of Mr.. Tyler, candidate for Lieutenant
Governor. agreed to stand by Mr. Hardin
in his construction of the platform. MIR.
Tyler announced his purpose of continuing
to speak for sound money, no matter what
the utterances of the head of the ticket
might be on the currency question. A COM
mittee of five, consisting of three silver
men and two gold tnen. was appointed 10
draft an address to the Democratic voters
of the State. The voters will be called upon
to support General Hardin, as we'll as the
remainder of the ticket. The address Will
also urge Democrats to drop the currency
issue. 1t was after o'clock when the meet
ing adjourned.

An Internal Machine IncIosed in {
Large Cardboard Envelope Sent
to the Financier.
EXPLODED WHEN OPENED
AND SERIOUSLY WOUNDED CONFI-
DENTAL CLERK ZADKOvITZ.
Latter's Right Eye Torn Out and Some
of His Fingers Blown Off-sur-
misses of the Detectives.

PARIS, Aug. PA serious attempt has
been made on the life of Baron Alphonse
de Rothschild. large and heavy en-
velope was received at the bank to-day,
addressed TO the Baron, and was opened
by M. Zadkovitz. the confidential clerk of
the well-known banker. Just as the clerk
opened the envelope it exploded with great
force, tearing his right eye out and blow
ing off some of his fingers. The police were
hastily summoned and an investigation was
begun. The remains of the strange en-
velope were picked up and examined, with
the result that the police officers expressed
the opinion that the envelope was nothing
more than an Internal machine. 1t con-
sisted of pieces of cardboard tightly
bound together and quite bulky. But there
was nothing strange in its appearance,
as peculiarly constructed packages of simi-
lar appearance are frequently received at
banks and are found to contain money,
securities or valuable papers of various
descriptions. The cardboard envelope of
this package, 1t is presumed, contained
illuminate of mercury so arranged that
when the outer covering was torn open
an explosion occurred.
The police express surprise at the fact
that the package did not explode when it
was stamped in the postoffice, and they
are therefore inclined to believe that it is
possible it did not pass through the post
Office at ALL but was slipped into the bank by
the person or persons connected with the
plot, and was so disguised as to give it
the appearance of having been properly
mailed. The detectives are working upon
this theory although several other clews
are being followed. Upon one point the
police seem to be unanimous, and that is
that the outrage was the work of an An
archst. The bank itself was not damaged
and very little damage was done TO the
private office in which the clerk opened
the package.
The attention OF M. Zadkovitz the con-
fidential clerk of Baron Rothschild was
directed especially to this letter because
Of the bulk of the package and the number
of seals used. He first laid it to one side,
then taking it to be legal document of
considerable importance, he began opening
it when he had completed the reading of
the daily mail. When he inserted his pen
knife in the cover of the package he found
that the edge OF the knife caught on some
thing, since ascertained to be string
concealed in the envelope. The act OF cut
ting this string exploded a cap. which
ignited the illuminate of mercury. The
police are of the opinion that the construc-
ton of the internal machine and the ma
terial employed resemble in many respects
those sent to the French Deputies in 1891
in boxes made to appear like packages Of
books. The police are using every effort
to discover where the letter received at the
bank to-day was posted.

PANIC ON A STEAMER
COLLISION BETWEEN A SCHOONER
AND THE CITY OF TOLEDO.
Six Passengers of the Latter, All
Women, Fatally Injured-Fifty
People Cut and Bruised.

TOLEDO, O., Aug. 24-For a second time
this week it has been necessary for the
tugs to tow in from the bay vessels injured
by collisions Another accident occurred in
the channel this evening that will result
fatally in at least five cases. About 0
o'clock this evening as the passenger
steamer City of Toledo was returning
from her regular trip to Put-in-Bay she en-
countered the schooner Madeleine Downing
in tow of the tug Butler of the Straight
channel just off Presque isle. AS the
City of Toledo was coming in she signaled
to the schooner to take the port side. The
signals We're apparently understood for the
tug at once began to sheer of, but in doing
so, gave the schooner a momentum which
carried her onto a bank of mud just
the steamer was abreast of her. She sud-
denly slid off the bank and veered into
the City OF Toledo, her jibboom striking
the passenger steamer just forward of her
gangway and tearing away about fifty
feet of her upper works. AS soon as the
collision occurred there was panic on the
boat, the men acting like insane persons,
the most of them taking three of four
life preservers and refusing to give them
up. The officers used every endeavor to
quiet the passengers. assuring them that
there was danger of the boat going
down and after few minutes succeeded
in restoring order. The schooner was
pulled away from the wreck and the debris
cleared away. 1t was found that several
persons had been seriously injured, while
at least fifty received cuts and bruises. A
great many of the people were sitting
directly beneath the boom when ii was
pushed through the vessel, and those who
received the most serious injuries are:
MRS. JOHN SANDERSON, ida, o.,
arms broken and injured internally; will
die.

BACALAR TO BE OCCUPIED.
Mexican Troops VIII Drive Out In
dians-NegrOes and Cnribs.


MERIDIAN, Yucatan, Aug. 4-The occu-
patton of Bacalar has been definitely de-
termined and troops will advance on that
place and establish themselves in winter
quarters The Indians apparently regard
resistance as hopeless and are one by one
abandoning their settlements and going
southwark. People here are already organ
izing exploring expeditions especially for
investigating lands near Espiritu Santo and
Ascension bays. There is much dye wood
and other precious woods in that region,
which hitherto has been cut by Indian and
British traders. who had illegally estab-
lished timber camps on Mexican soil.
A thousand negroes from Jamaica have
arrived at Belize TO serve as police and
soldiers. 1T ia probable these negroes will
be armed with rifles, drilled and marched
against the Caribs. who have lately been
raiding British plantations on the Hon
duran frontier, and between whom and the
settlers and their negro laborers regular
war is going on. The Indians in various
southern settlements refuse TO receive fed
eral census takers, declaring they are indie
pendent of Mexico and acknowledge no
masters other than themselves.

 A HUGE UNDERTAKING.
Great Idea of the American Museum of
 Natural History.

Great Idea of the American Museum of
 Natural History.
 The trustees of the American Museum of Natural History in New York have decided to establish an anthropological exhibit, which will be one of the finest in the world. They propose to have groups of figures illustrating the indus tries. mode of life and characteristics of every important race on the globe.
 This undertaking will require many years to complete. but the first group will be in place within two or three weeks, For some time past attaches of the museum have been out west taking photographs and getting measurements of the various tribes of Indians in North America and on the north Pacific coast Plaster casts have been taken of the faces. hands and feet of typical members of the tribes, and, together with the measurements and photographs, for warded to New York Those data will enable the modelers to construct life size plaster figures, clothed in native dress
 Dr. Franz Boaz, the anthropologist of the museum, has charge of the work and will arrange the figures into groups, each one representing as nearly as possi- ble scene from all Indian village Boston Herald.

n4KING THE ISSUE.

The Republican Congress anu one pras;aent are clearly making the ;ssne for the next Presidential cam n,;gn For a brief season the House sunnorted the Administration with out hesitation and on the enforce ment of the Monroe doctrine the House and the President were as one.
 Rut notwithstanding this seeming display of non partyism and patriot ;sm the House is now giving an ex- bibition of petty partisanism whlcn should bring upon it the censure ol the Nation.
 In presenting the financial ditllcul- t;es of the country to Congress fres' ;aent Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle clearly pointed out that the trouble was not due to lack oi rev arue but to our financial policy which makes raids upon the gold re serve possible and a constant men ace. To obviate this the Admlnis- tration asked that it be authoflzeo to issue short-time gold bonds at a low rate of interest for gold with which to reple enish our gold reserve. Notwithstanding the protestations of the Administration that our reve- nues are ample and sufficient for all purposes, the House responds by the massage of bill to increase the tariff and is determined that the peo- nle shall be taxed to raise more reve- nue. To the Administrations re- quest for authority to issue gold bonds. the House, fin deliberate irony, , responds by offering 'coin" bands-just what the Presidentdoes not want. The Republicans are ssarfn : y<bent on taking advantage of the financfNl troubles of the Gov ernment to ind rease taxation, restore Mckinley schd dhules, and vote incl dentally bo(lnty to protectionis' plutocrats and millionaires who have alrerdy grown rich by such an in- iouitous system of class leglslation' In oth CT words, the Republicans are content that there should be more money in the Treasury, provided that for every dollar that goes into the Treasury the already pampered protectionists shall receive four dol lars.
 In this action the Republicans have demonstrated that they have learned nothing by the overwhelm- ing defeat of their party which fol- lowed immediately after the passage of the Mckinley bill. In this they are again heediessly rushing to de- feat, for nothing is more fully estao- lished in our political system than that this is an anti-high tariff coun-
