DEMOCRATIC BRAVES
Already Crowding the Streets
of Syracuse, N. Y.
Hottest Kind of Hot Fight Expected
at the Coming Convention.
Hill VS.. Croker, Murphy and Sheehan on
Metropolis Representation.

Syracuse, n. Y, Sept. 22.-The Demo
Gratis are coming this way in numbers
that bid fair to swamp the town. With
the convention still two DAYS off. the
hotel proprietors are nc their wits end il
their efforts to take everybody in, and,
judging from the number of applicants
for rooms, it is already evident that SYRIA
cuse has not sufficient hotel capacity for
the people who want to come here
Tammany will be here with banners,
bands and about 500 braves. The Shepard
Democrats of Kings county will come on
special train to accept the one third
recognition accorded them. The State
Democracy from New York, will be here
in hopes Of getting the same recognition
as their Brooklyn friends.
Gossips here say that David B. Hill Is
doing his utmost to compel Tammany to
accord one third of the New York repre-
sentation to the Grace Fairchild Demo
Gratis, and that Croker, Murphy and
Sheehan are cOnspiring to defeat the wish
Of the chief.
They insist that the rival organization
should be left in the cold as last year, and
are bending all their energies to convince
the upstate Democrats that there is room
for only one regular Democratic organiza
ton in New York city
If the Grace Democrats are shut out it
will be only after the hottest kind of a
fight, and If they are admitted there may
be some lively times all through the con
vention.
As in the Republican convention, there
will be lively contest over the excise
plank. Efforts will be made to get very
radical plank one that will dcnounce
Rosevetism and declare for open saloons
on certain hours, Sunday. This may be
shelved and one adopted giving cities the
right to vote on the subject and not be
under the dictation of the state as at
present.
1t is expected that the work of the con
vention will be completed by Wednesday
afternoon.

STORY is FALSE.
The Vatican and QuirinaI Have Not Yet Ar.
lived at Negotiations.

Washington, Sept. % = Archbishop
Satolli, apostolic delegate to the United
States, in speaking of recent telegram
from London, In reference to reported ne
gotiations between the Vatican and
Quirinal, said, yesterday:
There have been no negotiations be-
tween Pope Leo Mi and King Humbert,
and there will he none.
There has been some discussion in
certain political circles as to asking the
Italian government to cede a certain part
of Rome to Pope Leo and his SUCCESSORS,
to he thereafter known as the Leonine
City.
The proposed section includes the
Vatican and its magnificent gardens. the
castle of st. Angelo and the church of St.
Peter. The plan embraced Also an outlet
to the sea, and some few rural districts.
But this plan has not reached any
definite conclusion.
Mgr. Satolli spoke also Of the attitude
of the great European powers. and said:
Between the Vatican and the Quiripal
there can be no union The differences
are radical and therefore nsurmountable.
The cab'egram is false in every word that
implies the contrary.
Mgr Satolli will address the guests at
the opening services at Mcmahon ball. in
the new Catholic university and will also
be present at the Eucharistic congress to
be held on October /.

B0WDOIN FRESHMEN
Scooping About Everything from
Sophomores in Athletic Lines.
They Win the Foot Ball Rush. the Rope Pull
and the Ball Game.

Brunswick, Sept. 22.-(Special). THE
sports and contests of the opening weel
at Bowdoin had their conclusion, Satur
day, in the ball game between the sophie
mores and freshmen, which was won BY
the freshmen to the tune of II to i.
The class of 80 has about 20 men, and
seems to have an unusually large amount
of energy and true spirit. Its good
athletes are numerous, and though it has
no more men than the sophomore class,
it has won several decided victories this
week.
The freshmen won the class foot ball
rush, Friday afternoon, on the delta win
ming three goals to the sophomores' two,
and, Saturday morning, won the rope
pull in two straight pulls.
Their third victory was the base bali
game, and the upper classmen We're iubi
liant over the complete discontinue of the
defeated sophs. The incoming class seems
TO have some fine material in the base
ball line, that will greatly strengthen the
college in this sport.
The pitching of Libby late of the Au-
burn High school, was the feature of tn,
game. He struck out IS sophomores, and
their only hit was very questionable one.
He showed perfect control and great
speed. Philoon, also from Auburn Higt
school, supported him perfectly behind
the bat Haskell did some brilliant work
Tor '99, though an error by him gave the
,ophs their only run.
The sophomores showed moro of ten
dency to be ratified than the freshmen, and
their pitcher had poor control. Several
exciting class rushes enlvened things dur
ing the game.

The approach of this cold wave over the
central Mississippi valley was anticipated
by published forecasts of this bureau. Sat

of the anticipation that tho cool wave
will extend over these states, Monday
night.
The approach of this cold wave was
first indicated by reports from the ex
treme Northwest Canadian station, Thurs.
day, and its slow movement to the south
ward is due to the extended area of high
pressure, which covered the eastern half of
the United States, with its centre over
the south Atlantic states.
This distribution of pressure gave per
sistcnt warm southerly winds until an
area of high pressure covering the cold
wave gathered in sufficient force to over
come this resistance.
The cool wave was driven almost south

snow and freezing weather In Colorado.

was some uncertainty as to the rapidity
of the advance of the cool wave to the
eastward
When 1t first appeared in the extreme
Northwest, there was strong probabilities

Central valleys, and, tonight such notice
was duly given, while the morning report.

wave to the eastward and every available
means of notifying the public of the much
needed change In temperature have been
brought into requisition, in states as TAR

notified of the probable break in the
