ternoon. There were 1900 delegates pres

chosen chairman.
Ex-Governor l.. Bradford Prince, Of
New MEXICO, called attention to the fact
that several Western and Northwestern
states did not respond to the roll call.
which was due, HE tslid, to the fact
that within the past few weeks these
states had held silver convention az
Salt Lake, at which, committee was
appointed to represent them collectively
ait this gathering. The fact that these
delegates were not present indicated no
lack of sympathy With the silver con-
venion. The chairman then introduced

eminent coinage authority, who spoke at
length.

gresham Sibley. of Pennsylvania, C. s.

of Indiana. Tomorrow will be devoted
to speeches of some Of the distinguished
visitors and the consideration of the
report Of the committee on resolutions,

whose purpose to advance the candidacy
of Congressman Sibley, of Pennsylvania,
for the presidency has been frequently
manifested, is formidable and the result
Of the encounter between these two op-
posing forces, the Conservative and the
radical silver men, as will be shown In
the deciarat-o of the convention, is
watched with great Interest.

Saloons Olosed-Ths ministers Hap
py, AID San Antonio Visitors
Longing For Home.
NEwYoRK, July l0.-This city
last Sunday had somewhat the APP
pearance of a Maine prohibition
town. There were less saloons
doing business than on the SUM-
day previous. Many Of them which
did quiet business ION previous
Sumo ays, were closed yesterday be-
yond ali doubt. Many Of the
proprietors had been impressed by
the statement OF President Roos-
welt, Of the police department dur.
ing the week past that the excise
law would be strictly enforced on
Sunday and that any one caught
violating il would be arrested.
President Roosevelt has convinced
the saloon keepers that there would
be no "bluff" in enforcing the law,
so most of them decided not to.
take any chances. A few, how
ever, kept open, but as on last Sun
day., they would notadmit any one
unknown to thom. Heretofore, on
Sundays in the hotel cafes small
plates of cheese and crackers were
placed on every table and anyone
who presented a respectable ap-
pearance could take a seat, and by
eating or pretending to eat some of
the cheese or crackers, could get
whatever he called for to drink.
This was changed yesterday at
all the hotels. Patrons were hand
ed a menu and required to order
something to eat before anything
to drink was served to them. The
famous "Tenderloin District" was
no exception to the "dryness" pre-
vailing in other parts of the city,
and the Bowery was practically
deserted.
In many churches the ministers
delivered sermons extolling the
crusade against the opening of the
saloons on Sunday.

Relic OF a Dead Party.

VELAsCo, Tex, July 1O.-Hon.
Abner Taylor today issued an open
letter in reply to Secretary OF
Agriculture Morton's recent letter
to him. Among other things he
says: / am familiar with your
regulations in relation to the ad.
mission of cattle from Mexico and
of the law passed by the last Con.
gress when 1t repealed q specific
duty of $40 per head on cattle and
fixed duty of 20 per cent ad va.
loren. But that Congress Is dead,
and the party that elected 1t Is
dead, and you are the only living
relic of that party with authority
to administer that law. You can
only give the name OF one man
who says he will be benefited by
those cattle coming in, because he
has some feed which he wishes is
dispose of. Do you think that a
justification for bringing in these
cattle? You say that the importa-
ton of these cattle has done what
you expected would do, towit: 1t
has put down the price OF dressed
beef. AS not one pound OF these
cattle has ever been slaughtered
and not one pound OF them will
ever be sold as dressed beef, you
cannot believe that this statement
is true. l cannot answer the I'M
gentlemanly language 80 freely in
dulged in by you without descend
ing to the level Of BLACKBOARD.
This could not do and maintain
my self-respect; 30 l leave 1t I'M
answered. Very respectfully,

Saws He Will Never Return.

CANTON, o., July 10.-R. N.
Taylor, a member of the law firm
of Weldon & Taylor, and son OF ex-
Congressman N. Taylor, has left
his wife and is supposed to be on
his way to South America. The
fact of his desertion was estab-
lished when his wife came here
from a visit to her parents at
Hamilton, with a letter from him
in which he said that he will never
come back; that he never cared for
her; and mentioning many instan-
ces of his unfaithfulness and pro-
fiigacy. The only other known
cause of his departure is that he
owed many small debts to trades
people; and also owed for a monu-
ment erected over the grave OF his
first wife. His present wife was
Stella Weller, a society belle of
Hamilton, and they were only
married in December last. His
creditors issued attachments
against him last week and found
his property heavily encountered.

WEARS NO CLOTHES
A Chinaman Who Works in a Nude
ditiOn

ditiOn
Out on Vermont avenue. beyond the
race track, lives Chinaman who raises
vegetables for the Los Angeles market,
His garden is situated right on the ave-
nue., along which good many people
pass in the course of day.
This Chinaman makes no pretensions
to being dude. He has never been
noted for the variety and elegance of his
wardrobe, but such clothsng' as he does
possess he apparently wants to keep clean
and nice. OF late he has been keeping
them all locked up in his shanty and
going to work naked.
With the yoke across his shoulders, to
either end of which is attached big lrri-
eating tin. he trots up and down his
rows of vegetables entirely oblivious of
everything and everybody. He appar-
emily is not aware that there is anything
in his behavior not in accordance with
the usages of Western civilization. But
there are good many complaints among
the neighbors, and the police may put
a stop to his behavior.
