Washington, July 12.-The Christian

weather but big meetings have never

that aided in the success of the meet

Chairman Smith, of the convention
committee of arrangements, says that
he believes the number will reach, but
not exceed, $4,000 Sixty thousand

The grandmother of William
J. Bryan lives in the staid and quaint
old town of New London, Ind, and her
name is Mrs. Mary F. Cobb. The VEN
cradle lady is now in her ninety-siXth
year and was born in Kentucky. She
makes her home with a SOn-in-laW
who is himself about 80 years of age.
Mrs. Cobb's first husband was Louis
Bryan, the great grandfather of the
ycIng Nebraskan, the line of success
sion being Louis Bryan, George Bryan,
silas Bryan, and William Jennings
Bryan. Mrs. Cobb never saw her dis
tinguished great-grandson, her grand
son Silas moving from Kentucky to III
inCis when he was but years of age.
Mrs. Cobb came to New London eight
Years ago from Kentucky. Mr. Cobb
died number of years ago, since which
time the old lady has lived with her
children in Kentucky and Indiana.
She is remarkably active and we'll pre-
served for one of her years, and very
bright and intelligent. She persists in
helping with the homework day by
day. The news of her great-grandson's
success at Chicago found her at the
wash tub assisting her daughter She
was greatly surprised at the intelli-
gence and dictated a telegram of con-
graduation to her relative. The old
lady is herself, however, an ardent re-
publican. She says she has been a
republican too long to change her
politics now.

these beliefs even at the bidding of a
democratic national convention. Con
victions cannot be compromised. The
Delaware democracy is an organization
distinct from the national democracy
and has history and traditions Of its
own. The democracy in this state has
always had and is likely to continue to
have strong sympathy with that of
New York, New Jersey and Maryland.

THE SLAUGHTER AT ADOWA.
News From Abyssinia Becomes More
Discouraging Every Day.
The italian Loss Placed at Twelve
Thousand Five Hundred-Enemy's
Loss About the Same.

ROME, March 12-The news from
Abyssinia becomes more discouraging
every day. 1t is now said that after the
battle of Adowa only II per cent. of the
Italians engaged in the fight answered
at roll-call. One report says that the
Italians lost u, 800 and the Abyssinians
about the same number. The Italians
fought bravely, but were outnumbered
by the Abyssinians.
King Menelik's army is now slowly
advancing toward the Italian position.
1t has reached Entisco, about midway
between Adowa and Adigrat. Com
munication with Kassala is still un-
broken. Much anxiety is felt as to the
fate of Adigrat, which is very made
quately provisioned for a siege. The
Abyssinans have been greatly embold-
ered by their recent successes and will
undoubtedly attack the Italians
whether they remain at Adigrat or
attempt to retreat. In either case, with
the overwhelming numbers of the Abys-
sinians, it can hardly be doubted what
the result would be.
Italia says that the policy of the
Government will hereafter be strictly
on the defensive in Africa, but it is diff
cult to see how this could avert the
threatened disaster at Adigrat.
The people of Italy are not pleased
with the prospect or an Abyssinian
campaign. All over the country men
who would be liable to be called out for
military service are hurrying away.
Every railroad train into France is
crowded with fugitives. This stream
has kept up for several days, and there
is no sign of a decrease in the numbers.

mTHRoUGH TICKETS TO ALASKA.
They Are Not Subject to the Trans
continental Agreement.


CHICAGO, March PA ruling was
made to-day by the Chairman of the
Western Passenger Association which
will tend to check any attempt to evade
the transcontinental agreement by TAX
ing advantage of the present rush Of
gold hunters to Alaska.
The Chairman had ruled that through
tickets to Alaska We're not subject to
the agreement and some roads at once
began selling tickets to North Pacific
Coast cities regardless of agreed rates.
To-days ruling, however, upsets the
practice by holding that only business
tieketed through to Alaska was exempt
from the provisions of the agreement,
and that roads must not resort to any
subterfuge which would have a demor-
alizing effect on the territory of the as
sociation.
A spirited correspondence has passed
between Adjutant-General Wright of
Iowa and the Chairman of the Western
Passenger Association relative to the
concession which should ibe allowed
members of the National Guard while
travelling on guard duty. The Adju
ant-General demanded reduced rates
for encampments. but now demands a
rate of one cent a mile to any member
of the guard travelling on duty with a
certificate from the Adjutant- General.
The Chairman is not disposed to make
such a rate.

means that there is a good prospect of
the Senate not adopting the House res

warlike preparations would be contin-
ued, the Government being determined

WASHINGTON, March 12-In the
Senate to-day Hansbrough (Rep) of
North Dakota introduced a bill to grant
n Federal charter to a company to be
known as the Maritime Canal Company
of North America
The company asks for no bonus of
any sort, but seeks authority to con-

a channel twenty-six feet deep and 300
feet wide. The proposed canal con-
meets Erie with Lake Ontario, and from
the latter lake on the st. Lawrence
River to Lake Champlain, and thence
to the water in the Hudson River.
The charter is lengthy and provides
for the regulation of traffic and tolls
by the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion, for seizures for the public use and
welfare. for a rigid limitation of the
charges and an annual report to the
Government.
In discussing his bill Hansbrough said
that if our Government would not grant
the charter the company is prepared
and will so ahead in Canada.
