THE DISAPPOINTED
Opinions Of Those Who Favored Other
Candidates Upon Yesterdays
Nominations.
Mr.. Platt's Sentiment s.

Mr.. Platt's Sentiments.
Mr.. Platt was seen at the Southern
hotel last evening after the convention
and made the following statement:
Like good soldier and good re-
publican I accept the situation and
| will support the ticket heartily and
believe it will be elected. There has
been much in the contest to irritate
and dishearten the publicans who
have not been in accord with
the men who have become masters Of
the situation. Our friends are salts
| fed with the results of their efforts in
compelling the adoption of a gold
standard platform. That is of more
Importance to the success of the ticket
and the prosperity of the nation than
all the rest. It is conceded that the
| controlling element of the New York
delegation led to the movement and
| was instrumental in accomplishing
this object.
las for the head Of the ticket, no
one doubts that he will stand upon
| the platform that the convention has
adopted, and carry out the principles
therein enunciated. Whatever may
have occurred in the past, feel conf
dent that he will govern himself by
the wishes of the people as so clearly
expressed in the gold standard plat
form.
1.-The only other thing that the con.
trolling element desired, which they
found attainable, was the naming OF
a candidate from New York for the
| vice-presidency. They would have ac-
complished that result had Gov. Nor
ton consented to the use Of his name
for the second place after the conven-
ton declined to name him for the first
place. He would have consented to
the use of his name for the vice-presi-
dency in the interest of harmony
| and the success of the ticket. but
he learned of the factious opposition
OF small minority of the New York
delegation and wired peremptorily de-
clining to permit his name to go be-
fore the convention. We had suf-
ficient number votes pledged to Sc
cure him the nomination, but on re-
ceiving his peremptory instructions
there was nothing for us to do, but to
support our neighbor, Garrett A. Ho-
| bart. of New Jersey, the most capable
and available candidate"

ST. Louis, June 1a.-The battle has

of the convention was the withdrawal

of the cut-and-dried order, the results

Little Hope of There Being Any More

LONDON. June 1s.-A dispatch re-
ceived from Ushant lighthouse at 1880
p. m. says that the man Marquardt,
who was saved from the wreck Of the
steamer Drummond Castle and picked
up at Ushant, states that there was no
time to launch boats after the ship
struck. This being the case he thinks
there is little hope of finding any
survivors except himself and the two

the defeated candidates to make a certain mo-
ton. He believed it would be the, fairest way
to recognize them in the order in which the
nominations had been made.
He proceeded to announce the result OF the
vote. When he announced that VIM. McKin-
ley had received 661H votes the scene OF an
hour ago was repeated, Delegates and spec
tators arose and cheered and waved flags and
banners and the pampas plumes of Califor-
mia; the band struck up My Country, Ills OF

Westminster Theater.

Manager George III. Datcheller opened
the Westminster Theater for the season
yesterday afternoon with an excellent
bill by Marie sanger's Big Burlesque
company. Tue performance began with
a laughble sketch entitled "An Evening
Session." in which Fred Russell, the well
known comedian, assisted by the entire
company, including q dozen or more
pretty girls, made lots of fun for 10 min.
utes. In the folio were such performers
as Miss Ella Morris, the only lady ven

BASEBALL BRIEFS.

The "rooters" remarks in the grand
stand sometimes are the sort to drive a
man to drink.
The Newports defeated the Fitchburg
a game. Newport will be represented at
the meeting Of the New England league
tomorrow.
Bassett's drive over the centerield
fence yesterday was beauty. Hts OF
that kind are of course few and far be-
tween and are simply lucky, but they
brighten up game wonderfully all the
same.
1t is a pity to put such good man ms
Dickson in a position where he Is sure to
make a mess of IL In tight place. But
accidents Will happen and playe,s will
get sick and things will go wrong some
times.
Drauby is play ing trile slow on first
base and he isn't hitting with the aban-
don and freedom which makes glad the
expectant multitude that wants base hits
every crack. "scrap Iron" will have to
widen his bat trifle.
Joe Mulvey is as lively i'm covering
third bnse for the Rochesters as he was
nearly two decades ago when tc was the
star performer in that splendid hand of
ball tossers known as the Gortons. Joe
may have to squrnt little more than he
at "A l~A I.,A A.
there just the same.
That was fine exhibition OF ball play
ing the Providence Grays gave the other
day when they won out in the fifteeuth
inning, but il failed 10 come up to tho
record made by the Grays when this
town was represented in the National
League. Then IL took Is innings to
settle game which ended in the score of
/ too in favor Of Providence, and the
single run made was scored by Rad oourn
on his hit over the fence for four bases.
John NJ. Ward has joined Frank De
Haas Robinson in favoring the abolition
of coaching. He says, among other
things: "If coaching were done away
with entirely, more men might be caught
mapping by the catcher and bssemen,
but the play is pretty one, and the
ADDED danger would only Tend spice TO
the interest. | believe coaching could be
entirely abolished without in the least
detracting from the interest OF the sport;
on the contrary, 1t would be made much
more attractive TO many people. But II
the league is not prepared TO abolish 1t
altogether, ny would not one coacher,
stationed at third base, te enough?"

EASTERN LEAGUE.
The Heavy Hitting Rochcsters Couldn't
Hit 10 Hurt.


The sluggers from Rochester, the
League leaders, came to town yesterday
to make Murray and the gang sick,
but they ate something that didn't
agree with them during the afternoon,
and Shannon's pets grew discouraged by
$3.50 O'Clock, when the score stood to
in favor of the clam diggers. 1t WAS
the sixth straight victory for the home
| club and the winning streak has put the
Grays right on the heels OF the top club.
III the trick is repeated today it will be
the stuff, and thereon TO the end OF the
season tho other clubs will have to
hustle TO secure the coveted place lead
ing tie standing OF the clubs.
Mcfarland, the dandy twirler of tho
Rochesters, began the game like win
ner, bat no soon had nm attack OF that
tired feeling which Hooo's Sarsaparil-
la couldn't touch, and he kept
growing worse. knight was the
as the Sphinx thumped out four safe hits
with only four chances to do il. Dixon,
| too, lit on to his curves and Lyons had
wide bat in use. These three made
eight OF the IL hits. Bassett's beauty
home run drive over tho center field fence
was the surprise of the day. His tumble
aud lightning throw to catch a runner
on second base and Dixon's muff and
] fun BILE were the only errors. Providence
outplayed Rochestor'at every point and
won the game on its merits alone. The
leaders seemed to DC In a fog and lost
chances that the boys on the dump would
| have blushed TO pass by.
The game was won in the fourth inning
| with four runs.
Dixon began sipging.to himself, SIT
| don't seem like the same old emile" and
| looked at Mcfarland. lie swung his bat
ana the ball nestled close TO the left Il eld
fence after Bottenus dropped it after
good try. Lyons dropped one in the
right field and Murray sent clipper.to
left field. Coogan sneered at the tow
headed pitcher with reputation and
said au revoir TO the round leather as it
fioated away for two bases. Canavan
sent dust skinner TO Mulvey that
bothered him and "Cap'' perched on
first. Bassett slammed long fly and Joe
Knight was allowed to walk on wild ba lis

The opening attraction was Miss
Katharine Rober and her own stock com
pany In Morton's adaptation of Merimee's
novel entitled Carmen" The weat her
wss just the right sort for indoor pleas
ure, consequently there was good sized
audience present. "Carmen" Is the lat
est addition to Miss ROBBERS repertoir.
and she makes the wicked little Spanish
girl, whose main motive in life is per-
sonal pleasure, interesting to large de-
gree. The character from a general point
CT view is rather repulsive and 1t re.
quires delicate treatment to actually keep
IL from the limit OF offence. Miss Rober
holds 1t in check and gives fairly good
interpretati tion of the character. The
company rendered capable support and
the play was nicely put upon the stage
All the old favotites received warm
welcome and the season began auspici-
ously, "Carmen"will be played all the
week, afternoons and evenings.
