The National Committee of the Re-
publican party has now under considera
tion the two electoral tickets named by
the Regulars and Addicksites respectively.
The Regulars have expressed themselves
as content to abide the decision of til, t
committee, but the feeling Of the Addlcks
men Is not so certain. 1t Is even stated by
some of them that they will abide by no
decision, no matter from what source it
may come, If against their nominee. 1t Is
certain, however, that their Is goodly
sprinklng among their midst who banker
after the flesh pots Of a successful federal
administration, and to such there is a
strong feeling against antagonism to Nc
kinlcy's interests.
1t is not stated when the decision will
be forthcoming, nor does 1t yet seem at all
certain in whose favor such decision will
BE- made.
1t would be simply remarkable however
If tho National Committee should decide
with the Addicks electors. Its precedent
decided but a short time back that Addicks
and his followers We're not even Republi.
cans, and that decision was supported by
round majority in the convention which
nominated Mckinley. In fact, it is all
open secret that Mckinley himself was
Instrumental in such II decision, and that
he is in bitter hostility to Addicks.
For the present National Committee OF
the Republican party to decide In favor OF
the Union electors would be a complete
reversal Of their former decrees and
would mean tho worst of bad faith to the
anti Addcksites in this State.
Under such circumstances, 1t would
seem impossible to look forward to any
other result than an order from this com.
mittec, commanding the present Addcks
electors to vacate What they will do
when that time comes is still simply food
for con lecture.

RELICS OF MOUND JEWELLERS.


PITTsBURG, Aug 2l.-Great interest Is
manifested here over the discovery Of o
number of implements In n mound at Nc.
KEGS Rocks, which is being excavated for
scientific purposes. The mound is bs.
lieved 10 have been built by the ancient
mound dwellers, and the implements
found yesterday places the mound ON a
par with those that have been explored
elsewhere.
The work is being done under the direc.
ton OF Mr.. Thomas Harper, of this city,
who believes that the specimens found
here are not less than 1000 years old and
prove that they were made by the most
ancient people that inhabited this country.
Bone needles or avis were included in
the find, and Mr.. Harper says they can be
partially restored. A tomahawk which he
regards as not being less than 1000 years
old was also found. The same kind Of
weapons are found on the British isles
Mr.. Harper says the weapon Is similar in
appearance to the haloith, which was used
for striking, 1t Is made Of gneiss He
considers this an extraordinary discovery.
The bone implement. or 1aker, is re-
garded by Mr.. Harper as possessing un-
usual interest. This Is tho implement
with which primitive men, as well ms an.
cient people, have used in making flint
instruments. Since this mound was
opened, month ago, sixteen skeletons
have been found, many of them being Of
gigantic stature

PUT-IN-BAY, o., Aug 2l.-There was
five mile an hour breeze yesterday but
that died away almost before the first race

for the fact that there was no time limit

the course seventeen miles. The yachts
which entered were the Vreda of Hamil-

magnificent sprond Of canvas, was tho
winncr, Vrcda forging ahead toward tho

state department officials say they have
not heard officially of any firing upon the
flag of Spain by the people of Key West,

to the United States, and that if the atten-
ton of his government is called to the
alleged outrage it will be through the
medium of Mr. De Lomo.
