PHILADELPHIA, Nov 4 Estimates
from every county in the state give
Mckinley an apparent plurality of
266, $50. The great size Of the ticket
made counting necessarily slow, and
the estimates in many counties are un-
doubtedly below the actual republican
pluralitiea There is every reason to
believe that the official returns will
show a plurality for Mckinley Of
nearly 100000. The legislature is
almost entirely republican, the
democratic representatives not ex-
ceeding ten per cent. in q member

lican headquarters the hope Is still
held out that Morrill, and the rest OF
the republican state ticket may be
saved, but they back it with uncertain
Rgures It is q fact that the returns
so far received put Morrill,
slightly In the lead of Lsedy, bnt the
outset these returns have shown a
steady republican loss from the vote
Of 1892, when the fusionists won the
state by 5000 majority. TO illustrates:
At IL o'clock complete returns had
been received from 214 precincts, giving
Morrill, 1889; Leedy 16,648. This
shows republican loss in the same
precincts on the vote on governor In
1892 Of 1000 and fusion gain of $50.
These figures represent about one
ninth Of the total vote of the state and
the same ratio Of loss and gain kept up
to the end would give the state to
Leedy by $4,000 or $4,000 Breidenthal
claims that these returns do not fairly
represent the fusion gains, as they are
from western precincts where the pop
ulstion has become so sparse that the
fusion speakers had little room TO
make converts
The same 914 precincts give McKin'
ley 1870; Bryan, 1s,O2a This indi.
Gates a lead Of 1886 by Bryan over
Leedy, but an analysis and comparison
Of the returns develops the probable
fact that some, evidently maj jority OF
the judges Of election have either
counted the Bryan and Watson vote
for Bryan or thrown 1t out entirely.
This fact coupled with the expectation
that Leedy would run somewhat be.

Intervention for Hsmmond.

WASHINGTON, April 2e.-Mr. Mahany
Of New York in the House to-day
asked for the immediate consideration
of a resolution calling on the Secre-
tary of State, in view of the report
that John Hays Hammond, the Ameri-
car engineer, had been sentenced to
death for treason in the Transvaal,
South Africa, to safeguard his inter-
ests as an American citizen and inter-
fere in his behalf, if such action
should be deemed advisable. After
some discussion Mr.. McCreary of
Kentucky objected and the matter
went over.
The California Senators will prob
ably ask through the State depart
ment that clemency be shown to Ham
mond, although Senator White says
that in the face of a plea of guilty of
high treason he is not sure that this
government could make a very strong
representation.

whether the law under which the
leaders of the Johannesburg reform

Mr.. Chamberlain said that he was
unable to answer the question.

McKinleyites for Protection and Sound
Money-Antis for Fair Elections.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, April 3O.-The
Republicans Of Alabama held two
State conventions here yesterday.
One, the Mckinley convention, adopt
ed a ringing sound money, protection
platform, and determined to put a
straight-out Republican ticket in the
field, headed by General J. w. Burke
OF Calhoun, a nigh class Republican.
The other, composed Of all the anti
Mckinley factions. adopted a platform
declaring that all other issues in Ala
bama were s~ubservient to one-fair
elections-and, therefore,, all issues
excepting this were avoided in the
platform. Sound money and protec-
ton are not referred to in it. A reso-
luton was adopted by the anti-Mc-
Kinley forces that the Republicans
fuse in the State elections with the
Populists, allowing the latter to name
the nominee for governor and divid-
ing the balance of the State ticket
between the parties. The idea is to
cooperate with the Populists and
secure fair elections in Alabama.

ILLINOIS REPUBLICANS.
Assem- bling of the State Convention at
Springfield.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, April 3O.-Dawn
had hardly broken this morning ere
the streets were crowded with dele
gates and visitors to the Republican
State convention. Long before the
hour for the calling of the body to
order over $4,000 people were in
the great hall, every seat being occu-
pied and hundreds standing in all
parts OF the structure. Occasionally
some enthusiast would start a
cheer for his favorite, but few
joined in, because all in the vast
throng felt that serious business was
to be transacted, Illinois Republicans
being forced to decide to-day whether
United States Senator Shelby M. Gull
lom should be declared the favorite of
the State for the Republican nomina-
ton for president.
A few minutes after noon DIR.
Jameson, chairman of the state cen
trail committee, called the convention
to order, and he named Alderman
Martin P. Madden of Chicago tenn
porary chairman. Mr.. Madden was
greeted with tremendous applause as
he made a brief speech.
When the applause following Mad
den's speech died away, a resolution
was presented to refer all resolutions
to the committee on resolutions with
out reading, save q resolution in
structing the delegates at large how
to vote atthe national convention, this
resolution to be made a special order
after the nomination Of attorney gen
eral and debate to be limited to thirty
minutes on each side. The resolution
was adopted without objection. The
names of the various committees were
then announced and a recess was
taken.

had decided to commute the death

els Rhodes, a brother Of the former
premier Of Cape Colony; Lionel Phil
lips, president of the chamber Of

ment had not been decided on. It
was also announced Thai the sentences
of h others were being considered.
The President, in exercising elem.
ency, only followed the course which
he was expected to adopt under the
circumstances, but his decision was
dictated by his sense of justice alone
and not by any fear of the conse.
quences which might have followed
the carrying out of the full sentences.
Indeed, it is stated upon high author
ity, that he had decided days ago upon
the step just taken, and that the firm
stand he took in his letter declining
Mr.. Chamberlain's invitation to visit
England was assumed in order that
there might be no mistake as to the
actual attitude of the Transvaal
towards Great Britain.

Governor Stone Absolutely Refuses to In

JEFFETsoN CITY, Mo-, April 3O.-BHal
Taylor will hang tomorrow. The
Governor gave final refusal this 0
ing to grant him a respite.
Marcy K. Brown of Kansas City ar
rived last night at 6:i5 o'clock. He
wentsto the Governors mansion and
there pleaded for a stay of execution.
The Governor told him he would not
take any action then. Brown left for
Kansas City on the midnight train.
Attorney Ralph Lozier, arrived this
morning and went direct to the Gov
ernor's office. When the Governor
came over Lozier made a strong plea.
He talked will, the Governor for two
or three hours. A few minutes before
IL o'clock the Governor informed him
he would not interfere with the
execution.
Governor Stone said this afternoon:
"Under ordinary circumstances /
would have granted a stay of execu-
ton, but in this case it seems to me
the courts order should be carried
out. l can hardly act otherwise than
the way l did. The finding Of the saw
yesterday shows what a respite mig int
have done. The State was out over
So, 900 in the former capture, and the
long trials have added large costs.
Besides, bribery of the jurors was
tried. A stay of execution would
mean simply a few more days of suf-
fering. The death watch has been
set and the whole agony would have
to be gone through with again. In APP
plications for examinations in most
cases have granted them for human
ity's sake, but in this case no com
mutation was asked for, so the stay
would only prolong the mans suffer-
ings."
This ends the case so far as the
governor is concerned. he will not
take up the a S again.
