A REPORT DENIED.

Mr.. !. X. Hall was seen last evening
regarding the story printed in an even
ing paper, yesterday, to the effect that
Mr.. Hall had set up the pins all through
the city. in the hope of nominating a
majority of members Of Council in ia
vor Of his reelection to the position
of City Collector, in the event that a
Republican Council is chosen. He said
the story was out Of whole cloth, as he
had taken no part in the dictation Of
nominations anywhere, before the pri-
maries. and only went into a little fight
in his own ward-the Fifth-On the
day Of the primaries, after he learned
that Or. Taylor and certain others UNI
friendly to him had set up a slate to
carry the ward. He also denied that
he had any hand in any scheme or
slate in the Second ward, an assertion
to that effect having been currently
reported and generally believed.

Sevsral Lives Lost.
FRANKFORT. Kan. Especial. + At 5
O'Clock Sunday evening terrific tor
|nado swept down on the town Of
Frankfort from the southwest. Every
thing in the north and west ends Of
the town was completely wrecked.
Probably three score Of building were
razed to the ground. Some Of the best
residences Of the town were blown to
atoms. Reports coming In from the
country, where heavy damage has been
done, will materially swell the loss.
Many are reported painfully injured,
but so far rs known no one has been
killed. Many horses and cattle have
been killed. The Methodist and Pres
byterian churches were demolished.
A SCORE Of people are left homeless,
and are being cared for In public halls

Probably never in the history OF

from the top Of the triumphal arch
and the ringing Of bells.
Upon entering Moscow his majesty
was received by the governor general
on horseback, escorted by his staff. AT
the old triumphal arch his imperial
majesty was received by the mayor
and members Of the municipal council
Of Moscow, delegations from different
branches Of commerce corporations.
After passing the entrance Of the
Kremlin the cortsge passed along the
front OF Nicholas palace, but only the
most important members OF the i'm
perial party traversed the grand pal
ace square In state.
The GEAR and czarina, the imperial
princes and important foreign princes,
upon arriving ct the gate left their
carriages and entered the cathedral of
the assumption. The car was fol.
lowed by the minister of his household
the minister of war and important
aide-de camps. Behind them came
their imperial highnesses. and foreign
princes and all witnessed the solemn
celebration of the TIE Deum, which was
accompanied by prayer for the lives OF
their msjesties and for the happiness
of Russia.
At the moment their maiesties en-
tered the Cathedral of the Assump-
ton the military commander Of Mos
COW gave the signal and salute Of
eighty f1ve cannon shots was fired.
The czar and czarina bowed rever-
emily before the relics of the saints
and prayed before their images.
At the moment their maJesties en-
tered the palace of the Kremlin an
artillery salute of l0l guns was fired,
and throughout the journey bells
from all the belfries Of Moscow tolled.
The czar and czarina will remain at
the palace in partial seclusion until
May IS, when there will be q grand re.
view of troops and ceremony of corcn-
alton of the imprrial standard, which
always occurs three days before the
coronation.
May % and @ the czar and czarins
will receive the congratulation of for
eign ambassadors and other high dig
nitaries in the thrown room of the
Kremlin palace.
Examinations of buildings at night
was positively dazzling. They are
outlined with fairy lamps, the domes
and roofs are covered and the night
effect is beautiful in the extreme. The
whole city seems to be mass OF light
and it looks as IL the population will
remain in the streets until daylight.
The Russian government is said to
have spent over e2,O0O,O 600 on the fetes
up to the present and the city OF Mos
cow is understood to have expended
nearly as much more.

finished its business and adjourned.
Very much to the surprise of many,
Kansas City was selected as the place
for the next annual gathering, instead
of Washington. Another surprise was
in not compelling the new supreme
president, John w. Echols of Atlanta,
to move to Washington while in Of
flce. It was expected the supreme
council would abolish the advisory
board, and such action was taken. An
amendment to the constitution was
adopted providing that the duties
hereafter devolving on such body be
placed in the hands of the executive
board, consisting of the president,
vice president, secretary OF state, Sec
rotary, chaplain and treasurer. The
newly elected officers were installed.
A resolution was adopted fixing the
salary of the supreme president and
supreme secretary at $500 per year
each, without anything In the shape
Of allowances.

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONS.
South Dakota for Gold and
Cleveland Iowa for Sill
yer and BOies.

ABERDEEN, s. d. - Especial - The
democratic state convention perpe-
trated great surprise upon its free
silver forces, defeating them by vote
Of 22411l to 1671z, and declaring .un-
alterable allegiance to the Cleveland
administration" There was talk Of
the free silverites boil ting, but they
finally took their medicine. A hot
fight was led on their behalf by Lynch
of Beadle, who denounced the work OF
the federal Office holders In control
ling the convention.
The resolutions committee reported
the financial plank. rs follows:
1.-THE democratic party of South
Dakota are in favor of the present
standard Of values In our monetary
system, and the use of full legal ten
der silver coins and paper convertible
into coin on demand, In such quantf-
ties as can be maintained without i'm
pairing or endangering the credit OF
this government or diminishing che
purchasing or debt-paying power of
the money In the hands OF the peo-
ple."
Lynch Of Beadle moved adoption of
the following rs substitutes:
Resolved, That we demand Q restor-
alton of the money of the constitution
by law providing for the free and
unlimited coinage Of both gold and
silver as full legal tender ct the ratio
of l6 to l, regardless Of the action OF
any other country"
The convention by q vote of 1671s to
224H rejected the substitute and
adopted the original resolution.
The delegates elected to Chicago
were as follows:
First district, F. NJ. Slower Of Cen
terville.

of Sioux Falls.

ic state convention Wednesday was
silver from start to finish. The silver
men controlled every move and the
final result Is that with the exception
Of delegates from two districts tho
Iowa delegation to Chicago Is solid
and unCOmprOmssing for the white
metal. Even the districts captured by
the gold men are of no benefit to them
because Of the adoption OF iron-Clad
unit-rule instructions. The C0nven-
ton was not only one of the largest
and most enthusiastic ever held In
Iowa, but It was one Of the stormiest.
The trouble was finally smoothed over
and the white metal men completed
their victory by the adoption Of one
Of the strongest platforms adopted by
any state this year. The endorsement
of Governor Boies was enthusiastio
and his reception by the convention
one Of the most stirring scenes Of the
day.
