WAR OF DIFFERENTIATION.
Terrible Cruelties Practieed by the
Japanese in FOrmosa.


VICTORIA, B. c., Aug. 12-From
tormosa, where, for upwards of a year,
japanese troops have been vainIv
striving to crush out the seeds of most
bellum opposition to Japan Innovations
comes story which for barbarous
cruelty and defiant violation of all
ethics of civilization has fortunately
few parallels in history even of the
savage races of the world The terrible
tale of rapine, murder and wanton
cruelty reached here by the steamer
Empress of Japan, and fully bears out
the statement on the situation in For
mosa given publicity by the Rev. DR..
Mackay on his return to that island
six months ago. Other equally credible
correspondents are now the witnesses
against Japan. The burden Of their
arraignment is that, seeing neither
fame nor profit to be gained in the sub
jugation of the Formosans by the arts
OF modern warfare recognized as 1egiti-
mate by civilized nations, the Japan
troops, sent to the island, have en-
barked In a crusade of blood their
object being to crush out all signs of
discomfort by, as far as possible, exter-
m1nating the native population. In this
campaign there were no foreign powers
to make protest, no foreign press rep
resentatives to herald to the world the
atrocities, the telling of which would
bring upon Japan the contempt of all
enlightened people. Says the Tainanfu
representative of the China Mail:
"As result, the policy of extermina-
ton has been zealously pursued from
the beginning of the campaign and with
the destruction of their crops, the burn
ing Of their villages, the desecration of
the graves of their loved ones, the
violation of their wives and daughters
and the butehery Of their innocent
children, the people are driven to the
last expedients Of desperation"

BEFORE THE BIG SHOW.
First Ovation of the Night Was for
MRS. Bryan.


That the interest Of New York was
focused on Madison Square garden,
where William ]. Bryan, of Nebraska,
and Arthur Sewall, of Maine, were to
be formally notified of their nomination
by the Democratic party for the offices
OF president and vice president of the
United States, was proven by the
groups of sovereign electors who, as
early as the middle Of the afternoon,
began to come under the trees in Madi-
son square, and who by o'clock had
been reinforced by hundreds, at 6
o'clock by expectant thousands and be-
fore o'clock Swelled to a straining,
clamoring army.
New York had discussed for weeks
the masterstroke of oratOry by which
the Nebraskan inspired the tidal wave
of enthusiasm that swept him into the
highest place in the gift of his party,
and curiosity was rife whether the
candidate was equal to second speech
that might aid in winning for him the
foremost office in the gift Of his coun-
try. The garden had been the stage
for other events of the same character
Political meetings had been held in it's
walls without number. Eight years
ago Cleveland had been there notified
Of his selection to- lead a second time
the campaign of the Democracy, but
the speculation attached to all these
events had been but shadows compared
with the fierce light of curiosity which
beat upon this night. The name of
the young leader who had come out
from the West to plant his standard in
the field Of the enemy, as he called it,
and there to open the battle Of his
campaign, was upon every tongue.
Therefore the assembly waited eager
ly to discover what manner of man he
was of whom they had read so much,
and what manner of speech was his
which had such power over great
party convention. On this sultry night
the wide oval of the garden was fur,
mace in which 10000 people were to
suffer a fiery torture for their enthu-
siasm's sake. The glass had been re-
moved from the acre of skylights in
the roof and sheets of canvas hung
below Radiating from this ceiling were
strips of electric lights outlining the
sweep of the rafters which rose over
solid acres of heads. The platform was
small affair erected at the north side
of the hall, in the center Of the broad
arc of the oval, hardly more than
twelve feet square and draped simply

of the Democratic campaign in the city
made an exceedingly lively night.
The police lines were formed about
o'clock by 1000 picked men. AS the
hours rolled on the crowd increased so
rapidly that this large force was al
most powerless to handle it. Twice
the 10000 men, women and children
who were cheering and surging to get
closer to the Garden broke through the
ranks and with difficulty were driven
back. Only one person was reported
injured-a marvellous fact, as the enor-
nous crowd jammed the streets for
many blocks.

Bryan Told of His Nomfnation by
Governor Stone.


We are here this evening to give formal
notice of their selection 10 the gentlemen
nominated by the national Democratic con-

president of the United States. The conven-
tion which assembled at Chicago In July last
was convened in the usual way, under call
issued in due form by the national Democratic
convention of the Democratic party, and
may add with perfect truth, that more in
telligent and thoroughly representative BODY

all the honors and attention of the day.
This second audience standing in the
streets seemed to be composed mostly
of workingmen, and Mr.. Bryan ex-

No Apology to Offer, Even for the
Attack on the Supreme
Court.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-William Jen-
nings Bryan, of Nebraska, and Arthur
Sewall, of Maine, were tonight formally
notified Of their nomination by the
Democratic party for the offices of
president and vice president, at meet
ing in the big Madison Square garden,
which was a notable political event and
a remarkable climax to the remarkable
tour Of the presidential candidate
across half the continent.
An army of unnumbered thousands
filled the streets for several squares
about the building in vain hope of Sc
curing admission. In the hall, which
was fiery furnace, Mr.. Bryan spoke
to 10000 ticket holders for nearly two
hours. His address dealt almost en-
tirely with the financial question; was
more argumentative and less eloquent
than his historic Chicago speech which
won for him presidential nomination
and only in a closing appeal to the
citizens of New York did he speak in
the strain in which he captured the
Chicago convention.
He was surrounded by many of the
silver leaders, Jones, Of Arkansas;
Blackburn, of Kentucky; "Silver Dick"
Bland, st. John, of New York; Stewart,
of Nevada; Tillman, of South Carolina;
George Fred Williams, of Massachu-
setts;-some Of whom had been rival
aspirants for his place ON the ticket
Democratic leaders of New York with
the exception Of former State Treasurer
Elliott Danforth, who presided over the
meeting, and Congressman VIM Sulzer,
who organized the first Bryan club in
the state, were not present.
Mr.. Sewall spoke briefly after Bryan
and was heartily cheered. Gov. Stone,
Of Missouri; delivered the notification
speech which declared that the work
Of the Chicago convention had been
the work of the plain people and that
Bryan was their candidate.
After the notification meeting, Mr.
Bryan was driven to the Hotel Bar
tboldi, facing Madison Square Garden,
where he spoke again, standing on
balcony with Mr.. Sewal1 and Mrs.

friends were assigned to the section of
the lower balcony rising from the flag
covered platform.
The first comers to the hall were police
platoons, which marched in at the main
entrance and dispersed into every aisle
and corner. After them came two or
three hundred privileged and enthus-
iastic Democrats who piled into the
front rows of chairs in the pit and pro-

Ten minutes Of chaos followed. Bry
an stood alone at the front Of the stage
with out-stretched hands asking for
silence, while the audience stood on
their chairs cheering fiercely and re-
peatedly and shouting his name in
chorus. After three or four minutes
of this scene Bryan, tired of waiting
for an opportunity to speak, sank into
his chair and bhe band broke into a
patriotic air. Then Mr. Danforth came
to the rescue with his gavel and finally
the speech was begun. Talking from
railroad trains had told plainly upon
the candidates voice, it's huskiness
was apparent and it could not begin to
fill the hall until he warmed UP to his
task. Unlike his Chicago speech Mr..
Bryan read this address from the man

terrupted with volleys of cheers.

DOME BUILDER DEAD.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-The build
er of the capitol dome is dead. He has
left behind one of the most conspicuous
monuments of this continent. and an
example of architectural skill famous
the world over This man, notwith-
standing his achievement was little
known. His name was George H. Mil
Ter. He entered the office of the archi-
tect of the capitol in 1852, and con-
tinued there until his death. He was a
native of Baltimore. AS first assistant
to the architect of the capitol, Mr..
Miller had charge of much important
and responsible work. He built the
great white dome that surmounts and
completes the vast building, and in
doing SO took deep personal interest
and continuous risk in the work. He
superintended placing the colossal
bronze figure of Liberty on the dome,
and was the last man down, retreating
