THE POPULlSTs DISAGREE
Over the Wisdom Of Endorsing Bryan and
the Chicago Platform.

the Chicago Platform.
ST. LOUIS, July 16.-It becomes more
md more evident each day, as the date of
the meeting of the national convention
draws near, that the party will clash over
the Endorsement of Bryan for president
Letters from all parts of the country are
pouring into the national committee head
quarters, some demanding and some de.
nouncing the indorscvent Of the Demo
cratic ticket, and every thing indicates that
there is decided difference of opinion as
to the best action to be taken at the com
ing convention. 1t is the opinion of some
of the Populists here that the party is near
the danger line of split over the ques-
ton.
They express the hope, however, that
some definite plan of action agreeable to
all can BIO decided upon at the meeting Of
the national executive committee which is
to be held here next Saturday. Many Of
the Populist leaders are awaiting the com
ing of the free silver senator's who bolted
the Republican convention. Upon the
course they take will depend in a measure
the action of the anti Bryan wing. If the
silver Republicans come out openly for
Bryan and the Chicago platform the OPP
position may not mako much of fight.
Mr.. Taubeneck still declines to discuss
the movement in favor of Bryan and
Sewall His invariable statement is, II
have nothing for publication"

Terribly Beaten by Strikers,

CLEVELAND, July l6.-Further disorders
occurred at the Brown Hosting and Con-
veying works yesterday. The strikers and
their sympathizers attacked the non union
men while the latter were on their way to
work. In numerous cases the non-union-
lists were beaten with clubs and felled to
the ground. G. w. Jackson, one of the
unfortunate men who was attacked by a
crowd of union men, received no less than
fifteen knife cuts on the face and body,
and had three ribs broken. For time the
police were unable to cope with the mob.
The officers were finally reinforced, how
ever, and succeeded in driving the en-
ragged strikers back and rescuing the nom

We shall labor on from age to age; VIC
shall not reach perfection, but Il we do
our duty we shall leave the world better
than it was when we entered it."
Mr. Bryan dwelt at length on the duty
Of the citizen to investigate the principles
OF party platforms, but carefully avoided
any attempt to create political capital by
lauding Democratic principles. Francis
NJ. Youngblood, who followed him, made
a strong free silver speech.
There was another meeting at night,
and at this meeting Mr. Bryan delivered
an address on the advantages of our form
of government.
Mr.. Bryan hopes to be able to rest from
the Handwriting business until he reaches
Lincoln, Neb. He left here at 8 80 o. clock
this morning, and will go to St. Louis
thence to Kansas City and thence to Lin
coin.

Man Killed and Number of Persons
 Seriously Injured.
 Boston, July 14.-In the collapse of two wooden buildings on Bennett street this afternoon an unknown Italian was killed, boy named John Leveron was seriously injured and several others were slightly hurt. The buildings were being taken down by the city to make room for the North End playground. Patrolman Mcguire, when passing, mo- ticed that the buildings were unsafe and ordered every one to get out.
 There was rush for the door, but before all could leave the place, and while the patrolman was in the avenue. the fronts of the buildings were seen to bend forward and then fall AS the buildings fell the patrolman was struck by scantling and knocked down. Af- rewards he pulled out an Italian. The Italian was nineteen years old and no one knew him. He died almost imme- diately. Leveron's leg was broken and he may be internally injured. The in- juries of the others are not considered serious.
