what the Correspondents Say.


LONDON. May N.-The correspondent Of
the Daily News at Moscow notes the pres
ence there of the Bishop of Peterboro as
the specially accredited legatee from the
See Of Canterbury at the coronation of the
Car. His presence does not excite COM
ment," says the correspondent. las no in
telligent Russian accepts seriously the re-
Gently mooted project for affecting a union
between the Anglican and the orthodox
Greek churches" This correspondent also
remarks on the coldness OF the popular re-
family than the Gear. This, he is assured,
does not denote displeasure, but he Is in
clined to doubt this, as he observed that
the Grand Duke Vladimir and Queen 0lgo
OF Greece were only too much pleased TO
acknowledge the very few respectful salu-
tations on their arrival.
The Times correspondent at Moscow says
that the real reason for Dostponing the
military tattoo, which was scheduled to
take place Tonight in the presence OF the
Car, was the receipt OF the news OF the
death OF Archduke Charles Louis Of Aus
tria.
A Moscow dispatch to the standard says:
Crowds or people wait patiently IN the
streets for hours for a glimpse of the for
e'gn royal personages In the city. When
they appear the crowds greet them respect
fully. but almost silently. The Russians are
onstration. Tae b~rilliancy of the scene is
sadly marred by the persistent rain. The
whole military force was under arms to-
night for the tattoo, Wien the arrangement
was suddenly Cancelled owing to the re-
cejpt of the news of the death of Archduke
appointed, but the troops marched back to
their barracks.

ST. LOUIS, July 25.-Bryan will not
be the nominee of the Populist conven.
tion for president.
Ex-Congressman Tom Watson is the
nominee for vice president.
kilograms have passed between Ma.
tional Democratic Chairman Jones and
Mr.. Bryan which make the Nebraskan's S
nomination impossible.
1t was stated by number of dele
gates who had seen the kilograms from
Jones to Bryan and the reply that
Bryan would not be nominated. The
course to be pursued was not known,
but the impression was that as soon as
Bryan's name was presented, the tele-
grams would be read and Bryan would
not be nominated, and that some of the
other candidates would be selected for
president, who, no one could tell.
The substance of the kilograms from
Senator Jones to Mr.. Bryan stated that
the convention had determined to name
the vice president first, and asking
what he would do in case Sewall was
not named. The reply stated that
under no circumstances could he accept
nomination if Sewall was not also
named
The Democratic managers consulted
after it became evident that Sewal
could not be nominated, and Mr.. BRYAN
was communicated with by telegraph
They decided that Mr.. Bryan could not
be disloyal to his running mate, and

word was sent to the leading Bryan
managers in the convention that the
Silver Knight of the West would not
accept nomination, unless Sewall was
also nominated.
The convention for five hours lis
tened to nominating speeches in pro-
found ignorance of this fact. Tom
Watson of Georgia, Congressman Skin
ner of North Carolina, Mimms of Ten
nesse, Burkitt of Mississippi and Mann
Page of Virginia We're nominated.
Then the Bryan men decided to spring
the sensation.
Senator Stewart of Nevada was Sc.
lected to make the announcement,
coupled with plea for uniting the sill
yer forces. But the anti-Sewall crowd
were in the saddle. They howled down
the venerable senator, and, after hur-
ried consultation, the leaders decided
not to permit the announcement to be
made at that time 1t seems undoubt-
edly true, however, that Bryan will not
accept the presidential nomination un.
less Sewall is also nominated.
For the first time tho middle of the
road element displayed gcneralship
fact that all hope of defeating Bryan's
all their efforts against Sewall. They
did more. They devised cunning
scheme by which the convention was
forced to nominate the vice president
before the president. 1t was an unpre.
cedented thing, but 1t served to mass
the votes in favor of Populist candi-
date for vice president and uncover
them in advance in the fear that if
Bryan were first nominated the enthu.
siasm might break down the opposition
to Sewall and stampede majority of
the votes for the Nebraskan's running
mate. When the proposition was made
to change the regular order of the NOM
nations the Bryan men strained every
nerve to prevent it. They even pleaded,
but failed, losing by vote of no.
After that the conference of the joint
committee of the two conventions could
come to nothing and the silver conven-
tion promptly nominated Bryan and
Sewall and adjourned sine die.
The anti. Bryan men, although they
presented minority platform demand.
ing an irredeemable paper currency and
crowded with bitter denunciation of
the Democratic and Republican parties,
did not attempt to press it after their
victory.

crate and contains few radical propo-
sitions, such as demand for the grad

division and the minority report laid on
the table.
