That Promises Great Rcsults.

CHICAGO, Feb. l.-Contracts we're
drawn up in Chicago yesterday by

Keeping fruits and p~erishablc products
during transportation bv the use OF
sterilI2cd air His patents extend to
the Antlpodcs.
Mr.. Smart of the Australian meat
export company's corporation is of the
opinion that the new process, which
he says vii! enable Australia to- ship
its meat TO Europe instead of boiling
~ down to make tallow, will virtually
force the American producers OF
dressed meat oat of the European
market. He adds: Moreover, it. will
enable us To ship our fruit, which now
rots for want of Il market, to England
at a season when il will command the
highest prices and annIhilatc the trade
which the American syndicate has
been planning for. We propose to
supply the whole of Great Britain
with meat and fruit. Six warehouses
are now being built in London and
Manchester, which will serve as our
distributing points. Two OF them are
among the largest receiving ware
houses in the world"
The fruit syndicate Of California is
the interest which MIR Smart says has
occn most concerned about the matter.

Makes the Effort of His Life at Madison
Square Garden.
WILD AND TUMULTUOUS SCENES
Men and Women Grew Frantic in Their Attempt Do
Him Honor-F1is Speech Masterpiece Mrs
Bryan and Mr.. Sewall Share Honors.

Madison Square Garden, New York,
Aug. 12-william Jennings Bryan and
Arthur Sewall were formally notified to-
night that they were the choice of the
democratic party for the highest Offices
in the gift of the people of the United
States.
The occasion was one to which the en-
tire country had-been looking forward
for many weeks, and interest had risen
to a boiling point through repeated
promises and hints that the speech the
young Nebraskan> would deliver would
exceed in eloquence, vigor and magnet
ism his great effort before the Chicago
convention. Mr.. Bryan himself had been
partly responsible for the feverish feel
ing generated among the people. Only
the other day, when crowd of enthu-
siasts gathered at station along
the route of his journey from Lincoln to
New York had importuned him for few
words, he had answered: Read the
newspapers Thursday morning ana you
will have something worth hearing.
Whatever might be the political In
ciinations of any person who attended
this great ratification of the democracy
at the spacious Madison Square Garden,
ne must have been permeated with the
blindest prejudices not to have been
thrilled by the excitement and the en-
thusiasm which prevailed during the
entire time the notification ceremonies
lasted. The presence of so stupendous a
crowd of human beings was In itself an
eloquent tribute to the Importance at
tached to the occasion. And such a
