WANT THEIR SHARE.
The Populist Plan is to Divide the State
Electors.

ELECTORS
St. Louis. Mo-, July 1.-THE arrivals
of delegates to the national Populist and
silver convention were not numerous to-
day. Tomorrow the national executive
committee of the Peoples party will hold
a conference here to arrange matters for
the national committee and the convention
both of which will meet here next week.
Chairman Taubeneck is in Chicago,
where he went last night. Inquiry at
the executive committee headquarters
failed to elicit any information about his
visit there. Inquiry among a number of
the prominent Populists failed to corrbo-
rate the statement that Taubeneck had
gone to Chicago to confer with the Dem
ocratic leaders there. 1t was stated that
the object of his visit was to confer with
DR.. Taylor, member of the national
committee and prominent Populist, as to
what should be done at the convention
in regard to placting national ticket in
the field by the Peoples party. The plan
resulting from this conference will be
presented at the meeting of the eNecu-
tive committee tomorrow.
''If the Democrats will give us our
share of the electors there will be no
difficulty in the way of united action for
silver" said Sargeant-at arms Mcdowell,
of the Populist national convention, in
the course of an interview. Talks with
other leading Populists showed this to be
the situation, there being well-defined
feeling against endorsing the Chicago
conventions ticket The Populist plan
is to dividc the electors in each State ac-
cording to the strength of the Populist
and Democratic parties, the stronger
candidate to take all the electors after
the election. This they contend will in
sure the election of silver man whereas
if each party puts up a separate candi-
date and does not fuse on electors, the
silver vote would he divided and the
fight for silver lost.
In an interview George f. Washburne.
national committeeman from Boston,
said
1--WE regard the settlement of the
money question, as but step, but it is
too important n step in the country's pro-
gress to be lost by failure to unite. 1t is
very likely some method of union based
upon electoral fusion will be suggested to
the convention which will meet approval.
OF course nothing can be told now of
what the convention will do, as so many
divergent opinions upon the matter are
to come together here next week, and they
will require much interchange to evolve
a proposition satisfactory to all and an
tagonizing to none.n
Mr.. Washburne looks upon the situa.
ton in the South as the most delicate to
deal with. The East and West he con-
siders as being more easily brought to-
gether.

AT THE POINT OF BAYONETS

Cleveland, July 17.-This has been
another turbulent day in the vicinity of
the Brown Company's works. There were
several incipient riots and this evening
there was an open conflict between the
mob and the strikers and militia, it being
necessary to put a thousand men to flight
at the point OF bayonets.
The trouble began this forenoon. when
Two patrolmen were surrounded by a mob
of rioters and threatened with death.
The officers held the mob at bay until
help came and one of the leaders were ar
rested.
This evening when the non-union men
were taken from the works, Captain Tim
norman with company of militia
cleared the streets. Afterwards the sol
dlers returned to the works and crowd
OF LOCO men gathered in vacant lot
across the street They assailed the mil
itiamen with stones The orGer to
charge was given and the soldiers plunp-
ed forward. At least dozen men were
bayoneted and some of them were sc.
riously hurt. The situation is uglier to.

Milwaukee, Wis, July l7.-Denver was
selected to-day as the place for holding
the Baptist Young Peoples Union con-
vention in 1898, and the following officers
were elected: President, John H. Chap
man, Chicago; first vice president, Rev
c. l.. Seashols, Dallas. Tex: second vice

third vice-president, c. f. Tingley, Lin

The feature of the evening programme
was an eloquent address by President b.
L. Wilhelm, d. D., of Columbia College
at Washington, on 'Unforseen Forces in
Character Building" He spoke half an
hour and was warmly applauded at the
conclusion of his address by the S. 900 peo-
pie in the hall. The meeting began with
praise service conducted by the Rev.
Charles f. Morgan, of Omaha Echoes

which subjects acted on at the sub-meet-
ings were discussed. Reports on Chris
tan work were read, and Secretary Reed
delivered report on the financial condi-
ton of the organization in which he urged
liberal contributions of money to aid in
the work. The election of officers were
then ratified

NOT ANYWHERE NEAR AGREEMENT
Continued from first page. }

Secretary Olney proposes substitute for
articles and D, the change being provi-
slons that either Congress or parliament
at any time before the arbitral tribunal
shall have convened, by may act with
draw particular subject matter from arbi-
tration as involving the national honor
or integrity. If assented to by major
ity, only the award shall be final unless
one If the parties within three months
after its PRONUNCIATION shall protest in
writing that the award is erroneous in
respect to some issue of law In such
case the award shall be reviewed bv n
court, composed of three United States
supreme court justices and three British
supreme justices, who shall, in advance.
agree upon three impartial jurists, to be
added to their body in case they shall be
evenly divided on award
In conclusion Mr.. Olney says: cit ONLY
remains to observe that if article 4. as
amended, should prove acceptable. no rea-
son is perceived why the pending Vene-
zuelan boundary dispute should not be
brought within the treaty by express
words of inclusion If, however, no
treaty for general arbitration can be now
expected, it cannot be proper to add that
the Venezuelan boundary dispute seems
to offer good opportunity for one of
those tentative experiments at arbitra-
ton which, as Lord Salisbury Justly in
Inmates, would be of decided advantage
as tending to indicate the lines upon
which n scheme for general arbitration
can be judiciously drawn.n

How q Sun Burned Up.

In December, 1891, the astronomers be-
held the most wonderful sight that has
ever greeted mortal eyes. They were
watching the queer antics of star of the
ninth magnitude when all at once 1t
famed up like smolderirg brush pile to
which new fuel had just been added.
Within As hours its brilliancy increased 16
fold, and then the star slowly disappeared
from view. The astronomers believe that
what they saw was sun burning up"
Tho final flash which they saw probably
left the doomed orb 20 or even so years
ago. 1t is we'll known fact that there
are stars removed from us by distances SO
great that they might have been wiped out
of existence 100 years ago, and tho light
still be coming to us through space.
