piled: Their members of the platform

Kereus ''aAd there was scarcely a pins

All were for sound money. Major Nc
Kinley is a sound money man. He will

Nearly all the members of the national

Is i'll at Philadelphia. Chairman Carter is
here. There has been considerable talk
about the selection of General Fairbanks,
of Indiana, for temporary chairman. and
Senator Proctor, of Vermont, for perman-
ent chairman.
Chairman Carter said last night that the
matter regarding the colored delegates had
been adjusted, as he believed, in satisfac-
tory manner. When he read the first state
ment OF the difficulty he stated to a friend
In indianapolis that if it was found impos-

tells no quarters have been available for

ing ''all rooms engaged
The Republic says that the trouble with
the colored delegate question is that all
the room in the first class hotels has been
engaged by both white and col0red men
who had the foresight to engage accommo-
dations in advance; that the late-comers
are making all the fuss, and that they will
be taken care of just the same as the white
late-comers.
Joseph H. Manley, member of the COM
mittee from Maine who is the chief man.
ager of Thomas b. Reeds campaign, came
in last night. He said he was not pre-
pared to say how many votes Reed would
get on the first ballot. When asked if ReeG
would accept the nomination for vice
president he said: under no circun-
stances will Mr.. Reed take the nomination
for vice president. You cannot make that
too emphatic. He will have the first place

BRADLEY TO LET OFF A BOMB.
Something Startling to Come from Il
Kentucky Presidential Candidate.

Something Startling to Come from the
Kentucky Presidential Candidate.
CINCINNATI, June 10.-The Commercial
Gazette's special from Frankfort, KY,
says: Governor Bradley has again donned
his fighting clothes and an interview,
probably supplemented by some spicy
documents, will be given out today for
publication by the kentucky candidate
for the presidency. The interview will
reiterate the statement that the governor
is still in the race. Several days ago state
mentS were sent out from Washn gton
which originated in Mckinley circles to
the effect that Governor Bradley wrote
Major Mckinley while he was at Thomas.
vile, Ga, on his southern tour two years
ago, asking his advice as to what cur
rency position he should take, and init
mating that he bradley was favorable to
free silver.
According to the Washington story Nc.
Kinley answered Bradley advising him to
come out for Sound money" The gov
ernor will touch on this matter in his in
terview. The letter from Mckinley will
not be published in the interview, as they
are confidential, but Bradley evidently be-
lieves that he would be justified in pub
fishing them, since his letter to Mckinley
has been given out by the Mckinley man
ayers at Washington. While the governor
does not feel that he can honorably say
what the Mckinley letter contains, he will
state in his interview what it does not say.
There are not less than five letters in
Governor Bradlcy's possession from presi-
Dental aspirants written about the time
the Thomasyille letter was penned, and it
is more than probable that two OF these
letters will be used in the interview.

the young men attempted to force the re-

A doctor was called when the amateur

telling the young lady the laugh was on

laughing gas or anything other than a

The Industrial committee and the Board
Of Trade. and the Freight Bureau-if it is
within the province OF that organization.
and il seems 10 be. as IL is matter affecting
the transportation interests Of the city
should take up the matter Of quarantine
regulations. and see IL there is not some
way in which they can be carried out so
rs nor to injure the commerce Of the port.
IL is a notorious fact that all the money
that is or has been made in Savannah
has come from its commerce: its facili-
ties for shipping cotton. naval stores. lum-
Der and other products are the basis Of
its prosperity. 1t is equally as true that
little. if any. money has been added to
the wealth Of its people by investments in
manufactures. It is. therefore. proper
that everything should be done to pro-
mote its commerce by making it to the
interests Of ships to seek this port
New Orleans. which is infinitely more
exposed 10 danger from contagious dis
eases than Savannah. has a quarantine
under which that city has built up a
large and growing trade with the countries
south Of it. If New York should quaran-
tine a vessel from Savannah because there
was fever in another Georgia seaport, our
people would feel that this city was I'M
justly treated, and that the health Off
GERS of New York had very little judg-
ment. Yet we are doing that very thing in
Savannah every year. thus enabling other
ports to make such a charge against US.
The present quarantine regulations are not
one Of the inventions of the present city
administration; they may have mistakes
to answer for. but this is not one of them.
The present condition Of things has exist
ed for years, and frequent complaints
have been made about it, but without
avail. If Savannah is to come in for its
share of the export trade Of grain from
the west. # must be understood that yes
sells coming here are to be put to no I'M
necessary delay or expense. There seems
to be great opportunities for our city in
the near future. and our quarantine regu-
latons should be so adjusted as not to
ruin the commerce which our merchants
and shipping firms have spent years in
building up.
