1T MEANS REVOLUTION.
Chairman Mark Hanna's Views on
the Platform Adopted at
Chicago.

CLEVELAND, ONO. July 12.-Chair-
man Hanna of the Republican National
Committee authorizes the following state
ment on the platform and Presidential
nomination at Chicago:
The nomination of ex-Congressman William
Jennings Bryan of Nebraska at Chicago Fri
day afternoon was, Ithink, simply climax
a fitting one-to such convention. controlled
as ii was by combination of the most radical
and revolutionary sentiment in politics.
The effect on the country viii be to bring to
the surface the honest and patriotic purposes
of all good ana true citizens who think more
of their country's honor and integrity than
party affiliations. It will make this campaign
one of seriousness, because the questions in
volved are the most important as affecting the
interests OF the country that have been before
the American people since the Presidential
campaign of 1860.
The Chicago platform means revolution and
reputation. My judgment is tnat party lines
will be broken up to the great advantage of
the Republican party, which will stand for all
that is true and American in this issue.

CHICAGo's QUIET SABBATH.
Few Politicians Found at the Scene
of the Late Political
Strife,

CHICAGO, I'LL, July 1.-THE usual
Sunday calm, more noticeable because
of the contrast with the turmoil of last
week, prevailed to-day in the big hotels
where the delegates had reigned supreme
The gold and the silver representatives. of
the Democratic party, with few excep-
tions, departed for their homes on the
late trains yesterday and at all hours to-
day. The multitude of visitors went
with them and the scenes of political
conflict were almost deserted to-day.
Nearly all the prominent delegates
have gone, the principal exceptions being
the members of the notification commit
tee and the National Committee, which
have business to finish here.
For the gold and silver leaders who re-
mained in town it was a day of rest, the
latter being mostly confined to driving
with friends. Ex-Chairman Harrity spent
the afternoon that way and there was no
effort made 10 hold any conference OF
the gold men. The intense heat was not
conducive to indoor work aud there are
not enough gold-standard delegates here
to get up a respectable conference on the
third-ticket question.
Colonel ]. w. ST. Clair of West Virginia,
who made an eloquent plea in the conven-
ton for Senator Hill as temporary chair
man, although a silver advocate, said to-
night at the Palmer House to United
Press reporter:
II do not think Hill will have anything
TO do with another convention. That is
the impression l got from my last talk
with him. There are extremists in New
York and New England, however, who
may force another ticket in the field ]
have not any idea who would be put up.
The Eastern delegates did not want to dc
anything hastily on such q grave ques.
ton. 1t means the disruption of the Dem
ocratic party if another ticket is put up. y
The committee of three, representing
the gold-standard Democrats of Illinois,
expects to have its public address in be-
naif OF another convention ready for pub
Hcation in a day or two.

LINcoLNITEs ARE ANGRY
Believe That the Nominees Should
Not Be Notified In New
XOrIx

LINCOLN, NEBR., July 12.-There was a
feeling of keen disappointment, not un-
mixed with some resentment, among Lin
coin people when the news was read this
morning of the action of the Democratic
National Committee in determining to
have the two candidates of the party for
mally notified of their nomin ations at New
York City instead of at their respective
homes Citizens of Lincoln had already
begun planning for what it was confidently
predicted would be an epoch in the city's s
history. and the action of the committee
was an unpleasant surprise. State and
local pride is at a high pitch, and it was
hoped that the managers of Mr.. Bryan's
campaign, or such of them as are on the
notification committee. would beIgiven an
opportunity to see the enthusiasm which
the action at the Chicago convention had
aroused.
This determination will not, however,
have any effect on the demonstration and
reception of Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan on their
return home, which promises to be the
greatest of the kind ever held in the State.
AT the meeting last night it was agreed
to make it an entirely non- partisan affair
and this is emphasized by the fact that on
the different committees leading Repub-
licans dominate IN the mem bership. Ex-
cursions will be run to the city from every
point in the State and delegations will be
present not only from Nebraska cities and
towns. but from Colorado, Iowa, Kansas
and Missouri.
The nomination of Mr.. Bryan was re-
ferred to by pastors of the different
churches to-day, notably in the First
Presbyterian, of which the Democratic
nominee is a member and where he is an
enthusiastic worker in the Sunday-school.
All reference to him was of congratu-
latory nature.
The city was not without its usual
demonstration, on a subdued scale, being
due to the arrival at 5 P. NJ. of the Nebraska
delegation from the convention. They
were met at the depot by large crowd
and marched to headquarters with flags
and Bryan banners flowing. 1t will be an
unusually dull day in Lincoln from now
until the novelty wears off when there is
not some demonstration in honor OF the
Democratic candidate.

Letters From Western Men Give
Assurance of Victory
in November.
CoMPLIMENTED ON HIS SPEECH.
Caustic References to the Chicago
Platform Received With
Approval.

CANTON, OHIO. July 12.--This will be
week of more than ordinary Importance at
Canton. Major Mckinley expects a good
many visitors. representing various inter-
ests. classes and organization. The
event which is destined to attract the
most attention, however, will be the COM
ing of 800 or 800 representative women of
Cleveland on Wednesday to congratulate
Major Mckinley or his nomination and to
assure him that he has in high degree
their confidence, respect and admiration.
The mails of yesterday and TODAY
brought Major Mckinley in the aggregate
more than 100 letters from sound money
Democrats in various parts of the country.
The writers make their communications
in confidence, of course, but 95 per cent of
these letters contain direct promises of
support, coupled with vigorous observa-
tIons upon the action Of the Chicago con-
vention. A significant fact in connection
with this correspondence is that quite one
third of these letters are from Western
States, where the imitation sentiment is
supposed to be overwhelming.
This evening Major Mckinley received a
number of kilograms com plimenting him
upon his speech of Saturday afternoon. in
which he referred pertinently to the Chi
cago platform.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1896-07-13

references to the action of the convention
lent interest to his utterances. He spoke
as follows:
MY fellow-citizens: Recent events have
imposed upon the patriotic people of this
country responsibility and duty greater
than any since the Civil War. Then it was
struggle to preserve the Government of
the United States. Now it is struggle to
preserve the financial honor OF the United
States. Then it was contest to save the
Union. Now 1t is contest to save spot
less its credit. [Great applause.] Then
section was arrayed against section. Now
men of all sections can unite and will
unite and rebuke the repudiation of our
obligations and the debasement OF our
currency. [Applause.l
"The currency and credit of the Govern
ment are good now and must be kept good
forever. Our trouble is nor with the char
acter of the money we have, but with the
threat to debase it. We have the same
currency that we had in 1892, good the
world over and unquestioned by any peo-
pie. Then, too, we had an unexampled
credit and prosperity. Our difficulty now
is to get that money IN circulation and in
vested in productive enterprises. which
furnishes employment to American labor.
Great applause This is impossible with
the distrust that hangs over the country
at the present time, and every effort to
make our dollars worth less than 100 cents
each only serves to increase that distrust.
"What we want is sound financial and
industrial policy which will give courage
and confidence to all, for when that is
done the money now unemployed because
of fear of the future and lack of confidence
in investments will appear in the chan
nels of trade. [Cries of "You are right"
and applausel Gentlemen, the employ
ment of our idle moaey-the idle money
that we already have-in gainful pursuits
will put every idle man in the country at
work. When there is work there is wages,
and when there is work and wages there
are consumers, VINO constitute the best
market for the products OF our soil. Great
applause.]
Having destroyed business and conf
dence by free-trade policy 1t is now pro-
posed to make things still worse by enter
ing upon an era of deprecated currency.
Not content with the Inauguration Of the
ruinous policy which has brought down
the wages OF the laborer and the price of
the farm products its advocates offer a
new policy which will diminish the value
of money and wages and products. Zap
plause.] Against both of these we stand
opposed Our creed embraces an honest
dollar, an untarnished National credit, ad-
equate revenues for the uses of the Gov
ernment, protection to labor and industry,
preservation of the home market ana reel
procity which will extend our foreign
markets. Upon this platform we stand
and submit its declarations to the sober
and considerate judgment of the Ameri-
can people" [Applause.l

DETAILS OF THE CATASTROPHE
Where Popuous Cities Once Stood Are
Now Plains Black With
Wreckage.

TOXIC, JAPAN, June 26.-The horror of
Japan's calamlty-the visitation of the
tidal wave-grows as the details become
known more fully.
On the 18th of June, at 80 in the even
ing, a seismic wave struck the northeast
coast Of the main island throughout dis
tance of about 200 miles, and in five min
utes 80 600 people were killed and Il, 900
houses DESTROYED. That is the whole
story. In the case of inundations,
cyclones, or even earthquakes. there is 8
record of more or less continuous mis-
chief, and of more or less successful strug-
gle against the forces of destruction. But
in the case of @ seismic wave, one stupen-
dous blow accomplishes the whole calam-
ity in an instant. At $50 the inhabit-
ants of numerous towns and hamlets
along the coast were lebrating the
"Boys' Festival on the fifth day of the
fifth month. according to the old calen-
dar; at S:35, 10000 of them had been
swept out to sea or thrown dead upon the
shore, ard 5000 of their homes had disap-
peared or lay wrecked.
Any one can identity the locality of the
disaster by glance at the map of Japan.
From the island of Kinkwa-san, on the
south (north latitude 3S deg. l5 min., east
longitude 141 deg. 80 MINI to Hachinoye
on the north (north latitude 40 deg. sc
min, east longitude 131 deg. 80 min. }, the
