MANLEY ADMITS IT.
Comedies that Mckinley will be
Nominated on the First
Ballot

st. Louis, Mo-, June 11.-Mr. Manley
of Maine said yesterday afternoon: in
my judgment the convention will nomi2-
ate Gov. Mckinley on the first ballot for
the presidency 1t is useless to attempt
to deny that this viii be the result The
action of the National committee in its
overwhelming vote OH the Alabama case
settles conclusiyely how the respective
states which the members of the commit
tee represent, will vote in the convention.
Mr.. Reeds name Will be presented to
the convention, ana ne will be voted for
and, | am authorized to say that under
no conditions or circumstances can he
or will he accept the nomination for
vice-president, if it should be rendered
to him. The great majority of the New
England delegates will be loyal to Mr.
Reed. but it is my opinion that the con-
yentlon is for Gov. Mckinley and viii
nominate him"
Washington, D. c., June 11.-The in
terview given by Joseph Marley con-
ceding the nomination to Mckinley was
a surprise and shock to Speaker Reed
and his supporters in Washington The
speaker refused to believe the report
when it was shown to him last night
and denounced it as lie. Today he de-
clines to speak of the matter. Mr.. Man
ley took the step entirely on his own
authority without consulting Mr.. Reed
or any of the Reed contingent in Wash
ington. A letter was received at Reeds
headquarters written by Mr.. Manley Just
before he left Augusta for st. Louis in
which he said that he had not given up
hope of Reeds nomination.
His last step is embarrassing to the
Reed men. One of the Reed managers
said: 1.-THE speaker could not believe
that Mr.. Manley had spoken as quoted
until we received confederation of the
interview. He has made mistake. We
do not question his motives at ALL Prob
ably he was laboring under the dis
enlargement caused by the adverse de-
cisiOns in the Ala bama contests, which
we had expected to gain, as the seats
undoubtedly belonged to us. Perhaps he
was discouraged also by the number of
Mckinley shouters who have arrived
early on the scene. We know that no
one can regret the interview today more
deeply than Mr.. Manley does There are
100 delegates to the convention instruct
ed for Mckinley who do not want to
vote for him. Circumstances might
arise under which the convention would
see that the nomination of Mckinley
was&unwise and in that event Mr. Reed
would stand the best chance for the
nomination. We do not consider the
fight hopeless nor do we believe that Mr..
Manley does today. He made mistake;

Well Met.

James Edward Oglethorpe founded
the colony of Georgia in 1873, and the
houses erected by him formed the be-
ginning of Savannah. After founding
the colony he returned to England and
received promotion in the army, in
which. at the time Of his death, he held
a commission as general. When young
man General Oglethorpe served in the
Austrian army under Prince Eugene.
During this period he was one day
sitting at table with Prince of Wur-
temberg. The prince took up a glass
Of wine, and by FLIP made some of it
fly in Oglethorpe's face.
Here was a sore dilemma. To have
challenged the insolent prince on the
spot might have fixed a quarrelsome
character on the young soldier; to have
taken no notice Of it might have been
considered as cowardice. Oglethorpe,
therefore, keeping his eye upon the
prince, and smiling all the time, as if
he took what his highness had done in
jest, said:
sMon prince, that's a good joke, but
we do it much better in England" and
threw a whole glass Of wine in the
princes face.
The prince half rose from his chair,
hot with anger; but an old general who
sat by checked him and said: ''Il bien
fait. mon prince, vous Pavez COM
mencee." Hehas done right, my prince;
you began it,
The prince, thus admonished, recov-
cred himself and smiled, and so what
might have ended in tragedy termin-
ated in good humor and an added re
spect for young Oglethorpe.

Il do not know what yon mean. nor
what you are driving at!' Lord Penlyn
SAID, beginning to lose his temper at these
strange hints and questions. u am sorry
ior your disappointment, in one way, but
II IS not in your power, nor in that Of any
one else, to come between the love Miss
haughton and I bear to each other"
unfortunately it is in my power and
must do it-temporarily, at least. AT
present you cannot marry Miss Raugh-
TOM
What! Why not, sir? For what rea-
son, pray?"
DO not excite yourself! Because she
and her father imagine that she is en-
gagged to Lord Penlyn, and you are not
Lord Penlyn!'
1T is liev' the other said, springing
at him in the dusk that had now set in,
and | will kill you for it." But Cum
dali caught him in a grasp of iron and
pushed him back, as he said hoarsely:
1T is the truth. Your father had an
other wife. who died before he married
your mother. and he left a son by her.
That man is Lord Penlyn."
Gervase Occleve took step back and
reeled on to a seat in the walk.
In moment there came back to his
MIND the inn at LIE Vocq, in which he had
seen that strange entry, and the land
lords tale -
So that woman was his wife and that
son a lawful one, instead of the outcast
and nameless creature he had pictured
him in his mind! But-was this story
true?
He stood before Cundall and said:
81 do not know how you are capable of
substantiating this extraordinary state
ment; but you will have to do so, and be-
fore witnesses"
II am fully prepared" Cundall said.
''Then l would suggest, Mr.. Cundall,
that you should call at my house to-mor-
row and tell this remarkable tale in full.
There will be at least one witness, my
friend, Mr. Smcrdon."
81 will be there at midday, if you will
receive me. And believe me, If it had not
been that l could not see Miss Raughton
married illegally, and assuming title to
which she had no right, would have held
my peace"
Lord Penlyn had turned away before
the last words were spoken, but on hear
ing them, he turned back again and said:
els this secret in your hands only, then,
and does it depend upon you alone for the
telling? Pray, may l ask who this mys-
terious Lord Penlyn is whom you have
so suddenly sprung upon me!'
II am hep the other answered.
"You!' with an incredulous stare.
'.'You!'
"Yes, l."
