cable to the World from Havana SAYS: A
cry of alarm has been raised by tire Her
aldo of Madrid over the discovery of
alleged defective plates in the new iron
clad Carlos V. The announcement is cre-
ating big sensation throughout Spain.
The Havana papers, quoting the Her
aldo's Cadiz special dispatch, say that
though launched eighteen months ago,
the vessel, as yet, is not ready to receive
her guns, the work being done at a snails
pace and shoddy material being used. A
recent inspection shows that majority of
the plates are already ruined, and it will
be necessary for the contractors to replace
them before the Government will accept
the vessel.
Re-enforcements are being hurried to
Manzanillo by sea to strengthen the
Spanish garrison. The town is reported
as besieged by the insurgents, led by
Masso, Rabi and Rios.
1t is reported this morning that still
another Cuban expedition has finally dis
embarked in Pinar del Rio. 1t is under
stood that lbs men landed under Miros'
leadership with two cannon and an ample
supply of arms, munitions and dynamite.

McCauts Speech.
WASHINGTON, D. c., July 26.-Con-
gresham McCaul, backed by the Congress
sional Record, makes a very substantial
claim to being the originator of the phrase
which nominated Bryan at Chicago. Mr..
McCaul claims and proves by reference to
his speech. as it was printed, that on jan
uary 26, 1894, or eleven mont hs before
Bryan first made use of the sentiment, in
discussing the Wilson bill he introduced
the reference to placing a crown of thorns
upon the head of laboring man. The
exact wording of the speech was as fol-
lows:
Ready as you have ever been to betray it
with kiss, you scourge TO the very quick, and
press crown of thorns upon its brow.
Mr.. McCaul said that he did not know
whether Mr.. Bryan was in the house when
he delivered his speech. and he did not
wish to accuse him of plagiarism. But" !"

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July 26-The great
crowds of delegates and visitors to the
Populist and Silver conventions have
melted away and ST. Louis is tonight as
quiet as graveyard. The California and
Nevada delegates, with a few exceptions,
left for home tonight. The silver men
from the Golden State carried away the

Charles D. Lane of California, chairman
of the National Committee of the Silver
party, will leave for home tomorrow
evening. He made splendid impression
among the silver people here, especially
those coming from the extreme East. His
generosity was boundless. He contributed
largely to the expenses of the convent ton.
and considering the fact that he is gold
producer the stand he has taken in this
campaign is quite unique. He will visit
Mr.. Bryan on his way home.

Earnest Conference on the Demo-Popu-
listic Situation.
LINCOLN, NEBR., July 26. - Senator
Jones of Arkansas arrived in Lincoln this
evening and was Immediately driven to
the residence of Mr.. Bryan, where an ear
nest conference was held on subjects of
much Importance TO the Democratic and
Populst parties.
In spite of its importance as political
center, having two candidates for the
Presidency-Mr. Bryan and Mr.. Bentley
the Prohibition-Silver nominee-as citi-
zens, Lincoln is very quiet place these
days. Mr.. Bryan has been little seen by
Lincoln people since he reached here Fri
day week. He spends most of his time in
his library going over the mass of mail
matter and the packages of kilograms de-
livered to his residence every day, and
debating replies to his clerical assistants.
OF these he has three-one a lady-and
they have had their hands full in keeping
up with the nominees correspondence.
So great has been the avalanche of writ
ten matter addressed to Mr. Bryan that he
is practically swamped, and many OF the
letters and kilograms that were sent i'm
mediately after his nomination are not yet
answered.
The Bryan and Sewan headquarters at
the Lincoln Hotel are intended principally
for the use of Mr.. Bryan in receiving Wis
iting delegations and comforting with
Democratic managers. Mr.. Bryan has
used them two or three times only, but
with the National Silver and PopuIist con-
ventions added it is expected that be will
be obliged to go there more frequently.
The speech delivered by Mr.. Bryan in
closing the debate on the Democratic plat
form at Chicago has been printed for dis
tribution under the supervision of Mr..
Bryan, with some verbal corrections.
A meeting of the State Central Commit
tee OF the free silver wing of the Demo-
cratic party of Nebraska will be held at
the Lincoln Hotel in this city on July go
Mr.. Bryan has promised to be present.
Senator Jones left Lincoln on late
train tonight over the Missouri Pacific
for his home, Washington, Tenn. He
wired to Governor Stone of Missouri to
meet him at Jefferson City tomorrow
Just before leaving, Senator Jones said he
would leave it to the common-sense of the
people to right the nomination of Watson.
No definite action, he said, would be taken
at this time with regard 10 the acceptance
or declination of the Populist nomination
by Mr.. Bryan. Senator Jones added that
he thought the notification meeting in
New York would take place August 10.
