senator Gibson Gives the Secret Political
Order a Broadsidle.
WASHINGTON, May 15.-Gibson in the
senate made speech opposing the bill to
restrict immigration and said that the
power behind this anti-immigration bill
was 1.-The American Protective Associa-
ton, secret-oath-b bound, red-lettered,
left-handed, dark-lantern organization.
The bill had for its real purpoee, said the
senator, hostility to the Roman Catholic
church-a purs.se Of envy, hatred and
malice. It was the offspring of brood
of mischief makers. Gibson read the oath
of the organization. This was the organ
ization, he said, that was seeking to enter
American politics. There was no branch
of honest politics which secret, oath
bound organization could serve.
Gibson added: "An political clubs, So
cieties and associations start on their
career with professions that their purposes
are patriotic; but all of them, as soon as
they have obtained power, are used by I'M
principled men to do wrong. l have faith,
Mr.. President, without bounds or limits,
in the American people. do not believe
that they will submit to the dictatiOn Of
any such organization as the A. p. A, but
that they will promptly ard effectively
stamp with the seal Of their condemnation
this impudent and dangerous interference
with the interests of this republic

What He Had to Say to the A. p. A. ON
National Politics.
WASHINGTON, May 15.-The most note
worthy feature Of the session of the Amer
lean Protective association was made by
giving to the public the annual address of
President w. ]. H. Traynor. While some
parts Of the document were erased by q
special committee, the body of It gives
more authentic information upon the plr-
poses Of the order than has ever before
been made public upon authority. He
says the A. P. A. is such factor in
American politics that its favor is openly
courted by party leaders and men who
want office, but that no party has had the
nerve to adopt its principles. He discour-
ages any attempt to nominate an A. P. A.
for president.
Referring to the advisory board which
created a sensation by its attack upon Nc
Kinley he says:
IA source of prospective danger is the
national advisory board as 1t is at present
constructed In its present form ii is in
danger at any time Of coming into violent
collision with the supreme executive board,
which is the supreme council out Of ses-
don and undoubtedly the superior G all

A Plea for Bimetallism and Teller he.
ceived with Wild Applause.
PUEBLO, May 15.-Soon after o'clock
Chairman Howbert, Of the state commit
tee, called the nearly 800 delegates to the
state Republican convention to order and
the convention was formally opened.
After the reading of the call commune
cation was read from Senator Wolcott.
Following is Wolcott's communication:
Il am very grateful to all my good friends
in Colorado for their unsolicited desire to
send me to the national convention, and
for their kindness in the past. l under.
stand there is opposition to selecting me
as delegate. 1 am too good Republi-
can to wish to create any division in my
party in Colorado, and am too much con-
ccrned for the success of bimetallism and
the great principles of the Republican
party to do 80 under the circumstances
1 therefore decline to permit my name to
be considered by tho convention in elect
ing delegates
This materially changes the situation.
Joel A. Vailc, Senator Wolcott' S law part
ner, said: Senator Wolcott himself has
never expressed desire to- go to st. Louis
His friends have thought, however that if
one senator was sent as delegate to tho
national convention 1t would be proper for
both to go, especially as Senator Wolcott
has defined his position to stand by the
nominees"
DR.. John I. Gross, of Trinidad, was
unanimously chosen temporary chairman
In taking the chair he arraigned the Dem.
ocratic party. He appealed to the conven.
ton to be firm for ''bimetallism" and Pro-
lection, and to remain with the many of
the land and not the few. In conclusion
he said-and the sentiment was cheered to
the echO-''Let us send delegates to st.
Louis who believe that bimetallism stands
head and shoulders above every other
issue in the coming campaign, and by all
means let us send Henry NJ. Teller at the
head of the delegation
The convention declared for bimetallism
and protection-free silver the paramount
issue. Teller was chosen to head the dele
eation. No Instructions, except obedi-
ence to his directions

ST. Louis, May Unsatisfactory pro-
Rress is being made by the contractors on
the immense auditorium building designed
for the use OF the Republican national
convention. Thirteen thousand six hum
dred seats are provided for, but owing to
its architectural construction and the
steep pitch of the balconies a good view of
the speakers stand is had from all parts
Of the structure, thus correcting the only
defect Of the Minneapolis convention hall.
Sergeant-at-ArEsT T. f. Byrnes and his
assistant, Max Pracht, made n thorough
and critical examination Of the building
yesterday. Every pillar, brace and fast
ening was looked over, the entrances and
exits measured, and everything was found
to be entirely satisfactory. Such DISPOSE
ton of doorkeepers is made that without
undue haste every ticket can be examined
and every ticket holder seated inside of
ten minutes.
Tho Distribution of Tickets.
"The architects know their business"
said Colonel Byrnes. The building is to
be completed within ten days, and it is
proposed to give an entertainment of a
de6icatory character ut which more per-
sons will be present than will be at the
convention, thus subjecting the building
to a practical working test. The press
committee of the Business Mems League
held conferences yesterday with Sergeant
alarms Byrnes with reference to the dis
tribution Of press tickets for the national
Republican convention. 1t was arranged
that the committee should take charge Of
oil applications for seats including those
already received by the scrgeant-at-arms.
All application will be tabulated and the
most equitable distribution possible of the
AIS seats will be made by the committee
| and by them submitted to Mr.. Byrnes for
his approval.
Press Must Apply at Once.
Secretary James Cox was ordered to give
| notice that all papers not having applied
to either the sergeant-at-arms or Chair
man D. NJ. Houser, of the press commit
tee, must make application Immediately
| to the latter. In order to facilitate the 10
cation of seats and the distribution of tick
cts it was decided to receive no applications
for seats after June l. A subcommittee
| was appointed to confer with the architect
and the chairman of the hall committee as
to the details of arrangements. 1t was re-
solved that all applications for tickets from
newspapers in Washington or New York
must be made through the newspapers
themselves and not by correspondents IN

that the powers Of the board be specifically
named.
As to Endorsement he recommends that
40 one shall receive the same until all the
state councils have been heard from, and
then that the Endorsement be only adj
visory. The principles Of the order are
brought out strongly in referring to some
members who desire to support Roman
Catholics for Office In this one point he
says the member renounces the right of
private judgment. No member can sup
port Roman Catholic for Office, no matter
how liberal nominally he may be. Tho
one absolutely necessary qualification for
support is entire remuneration of the pa
pacy.
