ELECTRIC RAILWAYS EARNINGS.
A Big Increase for May and Since
the Receivership Began

n Dig increase ZOE nay anu since
the ReceiveFship Began.
The report of Receivers John r. Young
and J. S. Collins of the Electric Railway
Company for May was filed in the United
States court yesterday. The report also
shows the earnings and expenses of the
company since the beginning of the re-
ownership. The report for May, 1896. as
compared with May, 1895, is as follows:
1896 1895.
Gross earnings .......... Sg44l 81 1886 %
Operating expenses ....... GALS % Gals So
Surplus Observation-Disclosures. 3,027 So 1871 Y
The net earnings, it viii be seen, show
an increase of $1,0497S for May, 1896, over
what they were for the same month in
1885.
The report for 10 aud 24-31 mouths end
ing May, 81, 1895, as compared with the
same period ending May 81, 1895, is as fol-
lows:
1896. 1895.

Net surplus ............. 5,54l 6O LIZ %
1t is apparent from the above that there
has been considerable increase both in
the gross and net earnings. The increase
for the month of May IL accounted for
largely by the big business done during
May week. At that time all the lines in
the city did a good business.

SILVER CONVENTION.
Bryan and sewan Unanimously Endorsed
Ed LittIe's Speech.


ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, July 25.-In the Ma
tional Silver party convention. E. c.
Little of Kansas nominated William
j. Bryan of Nebraska for president.
he said that through long term of
years this country had experienced a
depression in business that had never
before been seen on this earth. He
spoke of the denial of trial by jury to
American citizens and of the platform
adopted by the Republican national
convention. Its propositions, if car
ried out, would double the debts of
the poor. 1t indorsed Cleveland and
nominated Mckinley, and continuing,
he referred to the Wall street barons:
Christ" he said, ''forgave the thief
and pardoned the courtesan, but the
money changers he scouraged from
the temple.
In 1860 the country looked to the
West for a president in time of
trouble. 1t got Lincoln. TODAY the
country was in trouble, and again it
looked to the "Rowdy West" and it
would get man, who like Lincoln,
would lead them to prosperity. This
man was William j. BRYAN of Ne
braslka, who would be the next presi-
dent
There was loud and vigorous ap-
plause at the conclusion of MIR. Little's
speech.
A number of other speeches were
made, and then the rules were sus-
ponded on motion of P. V. Wise of
Missouri, and Mr.. Bryan was nom:-
mated by acclamation. The widest
enthusiasm followed. The band played
columbia" America" and other
stirring tunes, while the bowling and
screaming delegates marched around
the hall waving hats, umbrellas and
handkerchiefs. This was continued
for ten minutes Mr.. Baker of Cali
fornia then moved that the convention
proceed to the nomination of Vice
President.
Mr.. Troup of Connecticut placed the
name of Arthur Sewall of Maine be-
fore the convention. He made no
speech. II. L. Niles of Ohio seconded
the nomination. He had known Mr..
Sewall for years, and his father be-
fore him. 1t was moved that Mr..
Sewall be declared the Vice Presiden-
tial nominee by acclamation, and the
motion prevailed. The band PLAYED
America" and the delegates sang.
Then they sang the doxology.
When quiet was restored Mr. Baker
of California moved that each delega-
ton select a member of the commit
tee to notify the nominees. The mo-
tion was agreed to. The roll call of
States was begun, but before it was
half finished two-thirds of the dele
gates had left the hall and all the WIS.,
itors went out
Colonel Pace of Nebraska offered a
resolution declaring it to be the sense
of the convention that as the Demo-
cratic party had arranged to notify
Bryan and Sewall in New York, the
Silver party notify them in Bryan's
home in Lincoln. The motion was
agreed to- Thereupon the convention
adjourned sine die.

MORRISON, Col, July 25.-A cloud
burst in Bear Creek canon, Just above
here, at o'clock last night, brought
down a SOLID wall of water ten feet
high, which not only did great damage
to property, but caused the loss of fif-
teen or twenty lives The known dead
are: Mrs. Miller and three children;
a party of campers, fifteen or eighteen
in number, who were living in a small
house just below them; Viola Foster,
little Denver girl, who was with
this party. was saved at a point half a
mile below their camp by people who
heard her cries This much has been
learned on this side of the creek, but
as all bridges are gone and the water
is still high and swift, nothing can be
learned from the other side.
GOLDEN, Colo, July 25.-The worst
storm in its history broke uDon this

BRYAN DEMONS RATION.
Tremendous Uproar Follows General
Weaverss Speech


Weaver's Speech.
When Weaver concluded by naming
Bryan, the convention broke loose.
Cheer follow ID cheer. The delegates
jumped to their chairs and flags, hand
kerchiefs, hats and state guidons were
waved in wild confusion.
Through one one of the side en-
frances four men, headed by C. j.
Keppler of Nevada, carried big yell
low cross, AXIS feet in size, surmounted
by a crown of thorns. On it were in
scribed the words with which Bryan
closed his brilliant speech at Chicago:
You shall not press a crown of
thorns upou the brow of labor, you
shall not cruelty mankind upon q
cross of gold"
A large crayon portrait of the Ne
braska statesman was also carried
into the hall. Cross, banners and
state guidons were carried frantically
about the pit. Then, with the cross
leading. they were carried to tho
stage, where for five minutes they
danced in confusion while the dele
gates howled with delight Mr. KEEP
pier of Nevada, who bore the cross,
finally planted it at the edge of the
stage and the bearers of the banners
and flags descended to the pit and
continuedatheir demonstration there
AS the procession passed the Texas
delegation men struggled to bar the
passage. but the way was finally
cleared.
Several men fought over the possee-
sion OF the Missouri standard. 1t was

y ST. LOUIS, July 81. At 4 O clock
this afternoon the Populist notlonal
convention completed the ticket
which it began last night with Tom
Watson Of Georgia for second place
by nominating w. j. Bryan of Ne
braska for President. This it did,
though 1t had been plainly told that
Mr.. Bryan would not accept the nomi-
nation without Arthur Sewall. What
the Populists and the nominee will do
remains to be seen, but 1t is reasona-
BILE to suppose that Mr.. Bryan will de-
cline the offered position.
Texas Delegates Walk Out.
The Texans did not await the as
sured result Of the convention to de-
eide upon their course A majority
OF them bolted in advance. They
were headed by Delegates-at- Large
Jeremie c. Kearby and NJ. M. Williams.
The first named Is easily the leader of
the Populists in Texas and it is con-
ceded by all that he will be the party's
nominee for governor. He left the
convention declaring that he would
not return and said that Texas would
never accept Bryan. Delegate. at
Large Williams said that he would
rather vote for Mckinley than the
Nebraskan.
About fifty-five members of the Tex
as delegation cast their lots at once
with the boilers, Stump Ashby among
them. The others remained, in pur-
suance of an agreement made in eau
Gus to support the nomination of Nor
ton of Illinois, as the expression of the
anti-Bryan strength. The Texans
were very frank In the announcement
of their purposes: I'VE will make re-
port of our action TO the state Populist
convention to be held August at Gal
weston, said Delegate-at- Large Jermie
Kearby, land that convention will un-
doubtedly sustain us.
