Whitaker and other influential
Democrats keep up the demand
for straight Democratic ticket in

My answer is, those who have
the Democratic party under con-
troll, and those who have the Re.
publican party under control, in
Bexar county, are opposed to hav
ing straight nominations. The
Democratic leaders think it much
cheaper to 60 on the to the oper

. RICHMOND, Va, Aug. 5.-Ex-
Judge Edmond Waddill, the rec
ognized Mckinley leader in this
state, has just returned from New
York, where he discussed with the
national Republican executive
committee the situation here. The

SURPRISED the Britishers.

LONDON, Aug. 5.-The result Of
the naval maneuvers just con.
cluded, has given shock to Eng
lishmen, who imagined that Great
Britain's naval bulwark was i'm
pregnable. The idea OF the ma
neuvers was that a foreign fleet
was trying to reach Tough Swiftly,
and that British fleet, which was
much stronger and faster, had to
prevent it. The foreign feet met
off Torbay, and the British fleet
was spread from Lands End to
Cape Close, but the foreign fleet
did not try to pass up the Irish
Sea. 1t went around the west
coast of Ireland, and succeeded In
reaching Tough Swilly. This was
complete reversal OF what was
generally expected, and Is held te
prove that the landing Of an in
vading force in Great Britain ID
quite possible, even though
greatly superior naval force would
be trying to beat the way.

MILL CLOSED DOWN.
Monetary Agitation Stops Big Iron
Concern In East ST. I,onis.

Monetary Agitation Stops Big Iron
Concern In East st. Louis.
ST. LOUIS, Aug. 5.-The great
Tudor Iron works, of East st.
Louis, have shut down on account
of the general stagnation in bust
ness in that line. About 1000 men
are made idle, but it Is believed,
according to the opinion Of Col. II.
A. Meysenberg, president Of the
works, that the mill will run ir-
regularly, if at all, until after the
forthcoming election. Mr.. Mey-
senberg says that ever since the
PRONUNCIATION of the Chicago plat
form by the Democrats merchants
have contracted their business
and would not be responsible for
orders in anticipation of business.
Heretofore it has been a kind of
merchant custom to manufacture
articles according to the known
trade and hold them in readiness
for orders, but Of late these par
ticular buyers have stated that
uhuti NJ CIRCUMSTANCES Wouiu
they consider past merchant ac-
commodations criterion in the
present case, and il the mill put
out any iron at the present time it
would do so at its own risk.
The risk was not the only draw
back, Mr.. Meysenberg said. Com
panies and corporations that have
usually sent in orders about this
time for future delivery have
notified the Tudor Iron works that
they not only wished to call all
business off, but that under no
form of contract would they place
an order until the people had
passed upon monetary standard.
These contractors, he said, all gave
as reason for not placing their
orders with his company or any
other company the possibility of
an Endorsement OF the Chicago
platform and a change in the
monetary system of the country.
Mr.. Meysenberg said that his
mill would work whenever there
were OTQeTb To Ill.
A number of Mr.. Meysenberg's
employees were seen at the works
last night. All stated that they
were willing to work at the pres
ent wages, il they continued, but
did not know why the mill closed.
A few who have worked at the
mill for many years said that
there were absolutely no orders on
hand, and that the management
could not be blamed for closing
down the place.
The citizens of East st. Louis are
very much worried over the close
down Of the mill, as it gives EN-.
ployment to a large number Of
people.

WATSON ON BRYAN.

Tom Watson, in his own newspaper,
has been making some remarks which
will rather embarrass attempts at a
fusion, especially such a fusion as
will control the votes of the self-re-
specting elements of even me silver
Democracy. One of his recent gems Of
thoughts is this:
Dressing Billy Bryan up in Popu-
list raiment makes Billy an attractive
figure to our admiring gaze-but so
long as he remains mixed in with the
scrub shep of the Democratic flock, we
are much inclined to say in the Ian,
guage of an ancient anecdote, we
love you, Billy, but - your com

Eight Hours a Day.

b CHICAGO, Aug. 5.-As a result OF
the pressure that has been brought
to bear upon him by the labor con-
crosses, Gov. Altgeld issued a
manifesto to the West Park board,
calling upon them to take action
in the matter of an eight-hour day
for park laborers. In pursuance to
this idea the board passed resolu-
tons declaring in explicit terms.
that eight hours should constitute
days labor in the parks.

BASEBALL.
Houston Won the First Game By Timely
Hitting.

Hitting.
The only unpleasant feature
about yesterdays ball game was
that San Antonio lost. 1t was a
well-earned victory for Houston,
although the game was as uncer.
tain as the promise OF political
candidate before election.
Houston won the game in the
fifth inning by luckily punching
few hits, which gave them three
runs, all of which were earned.
Their first run was scored in the
first inning on Griffin's error.
Often was the only Broncho to
reach the bases until the fifth in
mig, during which time he got
there twice. He scored in the
fifth and and Kleeman scored in
the sixth. After that the locals
would get on the bases, but the
men that were expected to bring
them in, would fly out to the field.
They hit well, but their hits went
up against the fielders.
Houston also played in big luck.
San Antonio's hits were as true
as sound money and in two
instances Rankin and Reed
shut off what should have been
scored as safeties.
Red Herbert and Bill McCor-
mick were the opposing pitchers,
and who pitched the better game
it would be hard matter to decide.
Although ten hits are chalked up
to Herbert, two Of these were OF
the scratchiest kind. Herbert has
improved wonderfully since his
last game here, and it is hoped he
will continue his good work.
A pleasant feature OF the game
was the work Of Mr.. Clark, the um.
pire. He has loud, clear voice,
and is always on the lines on a
fly hit. His decisions on balls
and strikes were accurate, and his
decisions on the bases could not
be improved upon. Captain Schaf-
fer, however, raised a kick in the
fifth inning, when he was called
out at the plate, but it would be
impossible for saint to please
this man.
Yesterdays Texas league games
resulted as follows:
At San Antonio-Houston 4, San
Antonio 2.
At Austin-Austin 8, Galveston
2.
The second game of the series
with Houston will be played this
afternoon, commencing at A :45
o'clock. The pitchers will be
Nevin and Roach. Houston closes
tomorrow. Galveston follows for
three games.

IN Nj EMORIAM.

At a meeting of Hook q Ladder COM
pany, No. l, of San ia Fe, held last night,
the following preamble and resolutions
were reported and unanimously adopted:
Whereas, It has pleased Almighty God
in his great wisdom to remove from our
membership by the hand of death our
late brother, E. W. Judkins, which event
took place on the 10th day of April, A. D.
1896, after short illness which he bore
with fortitude and resignation CON-
patable with true manliness; and,
Whereas, Our company has had stricken
from its roll of membership one of its
brightest members whose character was
an example to his comrades and who at
every call of duty was ready to respond;
if necessary, ex posing his life to danger
for the preservation of the lives and
property of the community; and,
Whereas, The community at large now
mourns the loss of a young man just en-
tering upon manhood whose integrity
and moral character gave promise of
great usefulness; therefore, be it
Resolved, That we tender our heartfelt
sym pathy 80 far as can be expressed in
words to the sorrow stricken relatives
and friends of our departed brother, and
that We tenderly and confidently COM
mend them in their great affection and
grief to the loving care of the ever living
and all wise Creator of the universe.
Tho dead, he yet speaks. He speaks
to us ia the life be lived, in the character
he bore, and the example he left shall
ever remind US of our brothers memory.
THAT nothing walks with aimless feet;
That not one life shall be dest. Dyed
| Or east as rubbish to the void
| When God has made the whole complete. y
Resolved, That our hall be draped in
mourning for thirty days in memory of
our brother and that these resolutions be
published in the Daily NEW MEXICAN and
copy thereof be sent to the relatives of
! the deceased.
