that the gravity of the situation was

This suggestion was received with loud
cries of No"
Then Gen. Weaver made another propo-
sition that one vote should be taken, ana
then an adjournment taken until to-mor-

the chairman took a hand. He said the
leaders of the party had been driven away
from that platform, and he asked If there
was enough patriotism and decency In the
gentlemen on the floor and In the gai-
leries to accord respectful hearing TO
any one.
The audience, shamed into silence, quiet

MUCH WORK BEFORE THE SENATE
senator Morgan May Bring Up the
Cuban Question.

Washington, May 3.-The most impera-
tive work before the senate in order to
reach an early adjournment is to dis

ordinary appropriation bills, to vote upon
the bond prohibitory bill and consider the
proposition to pass the river and harbor

EEREsTrNa CONTEST AHEAD
National Committee Is
#&M to Decide.

Ghicago. May 28-Whan the republican
national committee assemblies at St
tf3AIis next week for the purpose of max
ing up the roll of the convention, 1t may
be- called upon to decide an interesting
question, and which, never having been
raised before. Is without precedent. When
the congressional convention of the First
district, embracing the southern section
of this city, was held in March, one Of
the delegates elected to st. Louis was
Frank G. Robey, and who, although
CHOSEN upon a Mckinley ticket, immedi-
Ately thereafter announced his allegiance
10 the anti-McKinley machine. Since his
election, however, he has removed per-
.manently to Decatur In the extreme
'southern portion Of the state, and his
alternate, who Is McKinleyite, claims
that Robey has thus forfeited his right
to represent the district In the national
convention. In this position he Is sus-
tanned by an overwhelming majority Of
the republicans OF the district. 1t is
commended. however. by doc" Jameson,
ex-state chairman and the king bee OF
the machine. that 30 long as a delegate
lives within the boundaries of the state
he can represent any district from which
he may be elected. no matter how far
distant, and that the fact that Roby has
abandoned his residence in the First dis
tfict, thus causing his name to be taken
from the poll book, cuts no figure Ro-
by's alternate proposes to contest the
matter, either before the national COM
mittee or In the convention, and the re-
suit will be of interest as establishing an
important precedent.

WHERE THE CYCLONES STRUCK
st. Louis Filling With Outsiders-or-
der Being Restored.

st. Louis, May 31.-Every railroad en-
tering from the country ran eXcul eio !.
trains today. This brought thousands VI
people to view the wreck brought Oh Wy
the awful storm of Wednesday. lhey
came from almost every town ana CITY
within radius of 800 miles, and nearly
all day cold drizzling rain fell. Low
ering, threatening clouds covered the shy
and a more dismal place than the rulheu
portion of the city would be hard TO hha'
At early day the people began TO stream
into the morgues. All day the officers on
duty were busy keeping the people NOV
ing in line in and out of the viewing
room of the morgue. The superintendent
of the morgue had trying time In an
swering questions in regard to the pooies
and taking names and descriptions OF
persons who had not been seen since the
storm. There were people there from all
points in all directions. Chicago, Cincin-
natl, Louisville, Indianapolis, Kansas City
and a thousand small places were repre-
scented, and from each town came anxious
people inquiring for lost friends.
The only light furnished in the city
tonight is that of private electric plants
and the principal streets are in darkness.
The street railway companies have had
hundreds of men at work repairing the
damage to their power houses and trolley
wires, and today nearly all the principal
lines were in operation. Telephone SER
vice is still paralyzed
The work of searching the ruins of the
old city hospital for victims of the storm
began today with a force of laborers. SD
perintendent of the Workhouse Carr, with
a gang of so negro prisoners, and an out
fit of carts and the necessary implements
for a successful prosecution of the search,
arrived on the scene early in the morning.
Besides the force of workhouse laborers
30 laborers from the sewer department
were also placed at work among the
ruins.
Half dozen guards, armed with double
barreled shotguns, kept a close watch
over the workhouse prisoners to prevent
any attempt at escape. The whole place
was gone over without disclosing a trace
of human body.
The number of persons and families
who are still without homes and without
the means of getting them is great. Over
100 teams were kept busy moving furni-
ture from wrecked buildings for those
who did not have the means to pay fol-
a van. There are hundreds of people who
need clothing and need it badly and the
supply on hand is meager.
The following dead were recovered from
the ruins of the storm today:
Adolph Anshell.
Mrs. Ellen Hennessy.
John Kelly.
In Outside Towns.

CAVE FULL of SOLID SILVER ORE
Reported Discovery of n Marvellous
Vein Near CheIan.

Chelan Falls, May 2S.-The reported dis
covery Of cave In the breaks near
the Columbia river, on the Douglas coun-
ty side, in which it is claimed are extern
sive quartz deposits Of almost solid sill
yer, is causing considerable speculation
in this section. 1t Is said the discoverer
of this remarkable cave is keeping the
matter very quiet until he can obtain
assays on the mineral and possibly Sc
cure title to the land with view to
making the cave point of interest to
tourists and geological students.
The Monitor mine, owned by Lee Ives,
