Boise. July 0.-The boiling republicans
have opened their contest for supremacy
at the primaries as against the McKin-
leyites. A conference OF prominent bolt
ers from various parts OF the state was
held to-day with Senator Dubois. IL was
decided that the bolters should proceed
under the call OF the state convention al
ready issued. The conference took the
view that. as the last republican state
convention declared for the free and un-
limited coinage OF silver at the ratio OF
10 TO |, all republicans In the state are
bound by this declaration until the next
state convention acts. II was decided
that all republicans. whether Mckinley
ties or Bryanites," should be permitted
TO vote at the primaries. The desire OF
those present was to endorse Bryan and
Sewall and put up a state ticket without
electors.
Although there has been a gret deal
OF talk about fusion OF democrats and
populists In this state. Il Is now stated
that no such coalition will take p.ace.
IL Is said that the populists rave re-
ce.ved orders from their national or
ganizations to put Bryan and Watson
electors In the field. and II Is unders stood
the instructions will be carried out. This
viii probably result In the delegates TAX
ing umbrage and refusing to have any
thing to do with the populists.

rived In Denver to-day and left for the
West tonight. Mr.. Lane. who stopped
at Lincoln. Neb.. on his way west, to
visit Mr.. Bryan. said to-day: MY I'M
pressions OF Mr. Bryan are best ex-
pressed by a statement I made TO a
business man, whom I was talking with
yesterday. l told him that. In my opin-
ion. Bryan was the jackson OF the nine
teenth century. and that God had es-
pecially formed his character and
guarded his movements to lead the
people out OF bondage into which they
have been plunged. He Is unquestiona-
bly, the man OF the hour. He Ii broad
and liberal In his views and holds the
deepest convictions as to what Is need
ed. Bryan has much greater hopes
than to be elected president OF the
United States. Ills object Is to purify
politics and TO change the existing con-
ditions which govern elections. He Is
a plain. unassuming man and as
straightforward as the farmer Of JEFF
ferson's day"
Mr.. Lane says Bryan and Sewall will
carry California by large majority.

the Spade. aud Axes.
II was a gigantic and sickening task
and the strongest of men turned aside
faint from the revelation Of the work OF
the spades. A heap Of bloodstained
timbers turned aside by one of the res
cuers brought to sight a woman's arm.
1t had been wrenched off almost by the
roots. and nothing remained but drip
ping stump. Even the hand was gone.
1t had been clad In a dainty white linen
glove. the sleeve Of which still clung
to 1t. Not five minutes later, a chance
blow from pick revealed a still more
CHASTITY remnant-a human heart that
only few short hours before had been
throbbing with life and love. One
woman whose body was recovered
still held in her dead hand plate bear
ing a picture Of Atlantic City. 1t was
unbroken. Scattered about together
near the wreck were many pieces of
clothing which had been torn from the
bodies Of the victims. hats, dainty par
asols. fans and gloves.
Just as one Of the relief trains reach
ed the Pennsylvania with its terrible
load. one man. who lay in a corner In
jured. regained his senses for moment
and, clasping his hand to his head.
cried In heartrending agony: who did
this? My God, where are my wife and
children"
