MRS. LELAND STANFORD.
Woman Who Won a Great Case After
Years OF Litigation.

The Supreme Court decision in the Stan
ford University case was a splendid vic
tory for education, and the noble lady,
who has practically sacrificed her life and
given away queenly fortune for the
higher good of humanity, is well worthy
of the congratulations which, no doubt,
will be showered upon her from all parts
of the country. The case was singular
one. Had it been decided against her she
would have lost more than $4,000, 900.

sarsut ~ Death to Yankees."
The action of the United States Senate
In recognizing the Cuban insurgents as
Delligerents and in calling on the Presi-
dent 10 use his good Offices with Spain
toward securing Cuban independence has
stirred the hot-blooded Spaniards to 4
high fever Of indignation. At BARGE
Iona Sunday $4,000 people assembled at
a mass meeting held at 3 o'clock in the
afternoon. Orators provided for the oc-
casion exhorted the mob until all were in
state of patriotic enthusiasm bordering
on frenzy and were reads for any mani
festations against the United States
which the leaders might direct. A special
from Barcelona says that the outburst
of indignation cannot be said TO have
been spontaneous. 1t seemed rather to be
the result of well-planned meeting or
ganized by leaders of all shades Of pelit-
ical opinion.
Students shouted, "Long live Spaini"
and Down with the Yankees!' Then the
mob started for the United States con-
.sulate with the evident intention of there
venting their ire. The city authorities,
who had until this time complacently
looked on without effort TO suppress the
rioters, seemed now TO realize the serious
consequences that might result from an
attack on the consulate, and a force of
police was dispatched to see that no Sio-
lence was done. This show of force did
little toward intimidating the excited
crowd, and after exhausting all the verbal
missiles in the Spanish vocabulary the
mob began bombarding the consulate with
stones. Further manifestations of vio-
lence were not waited by the police. They
roughly charged the mob and dispersed
them after several were wounded.
Excitement in Washington.
When the news of the attack on the
American consulate at Barcelona reach
ed Washington there was but one senti-
ment expressed: apologize or fight"
did they touch the fag?" was the almost
universal question when the news was
discussed. IF they did, the apology will
come too late" Many prominent men de-
clared that the mobs in Spain have freed
Cuba beyond doubt.
Secretary Olney received a dispatch in
forming him briefly of the facts. The Sec
retary also had cablegram from Madrid
Informing him that marines had been
placed around the legation there as a mat
ter of precaution, indicating that through
out Spain there is running strong feeling
of indignation against the United States,
on account of the action of the Senate.
Senor de LONE, the Spanish minister,
says if the facts are as reported in the
press dispatches his Government will dis
avow the action of the mob and assure the
United States of its regret, as well as Of
its determination to protect the lives and
property of American citizens in the king
dom. Senor de LONE points out that his
Government at once afforded police pro-
lection. In official circles similar view
is taken. The attack at Barcelona was
palpably the act of a mob, and the police
were prompt in their efforts to suppress
violence and afford protection. Ordinarily
an attack upon legation or consulate is
regarded as Il most fagrant insult, which
must Immediately be disavowed. Fail
ure to do so can have but one meaning,
and that is war.

WITHOUT OPPOSITION.
Bryan and Sewall Receive the
Unanimous Vote of the Silver
COnvantion

Convention.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July 24.-The strain of
the past few days was apparent in the
Silver convention this morning. The del
egates were slow in gathering in the hall
and the attendance was somewhat dimin-
ished. The leaders of the party, who were
early on the scene, expressed the opinion
that this would be the last day of the con-
vention.
The chairman raped for order at 10 40
and introduced Rev. w. f. Covert OF the
Missouri delegation, who opened the pro-
ceedings with the Lords Prayer.
Nj. Baker OF California, chairman of
the committee on conference, announced
that the two committees had met this
morning and would meet again at 1
O'Clock this afternoon. The Silverites
were assured, he said. that the Populists
were now working harmoniously along
the lines laid down by this convention.
ICheers.l He believed that a unanimous
report from the conference committees of
the two conventions would be one of the
strongest campaign documents that would
be circulated. In order that that might
be successfully accom- plished he moved
that the further proceedings of the con-
vention relating to the adoption of the
platform and nominations be deferred un-
til this afternoon at 8 80 o'clock. This was
seconded by delegates from Kansas and
Wisconsin, and the motion was carried
with but one dissenting vote. The rest of
the National Committee was announced
and the members were requested to meet
Immediately upon adjournment this
morning.
The membe are as follows: Alabama.

A motion was made authorizing the
committee to fill vacancies, when the mat
ter of counting the veterans of the late
war came up, and Mr.. Rhodes of Wash
ington addressed the convention. The
veteran resolution was lost sight of tenn
porarily in a tumultnous demand for a
speech from Senator Stewart, to which he
responded.
] He said that the silver delegates who
controlled the Chicago convention were
men Of honor and integrity, who were de-
termined to do that which was right.
Wall street was there, but its emissaries

were not permitted to approach the hum

was lost, although half of the 10000 peo-
pie were sent by the goldbugs. The con.
test over the platform came on. and it was
necessary for some one to present the
silver side. William ]. Bryan loud and
long continued applause] was sent for to
reply to the arguments of Villas and Hill.
The former made an elaborate, the latter an
adroit speech. Tire scene was a wild one,
but throughout it all the silver delegates
were not moved. Bryan came, looking a
leader. His first word stilled the vast
crowd and overwhelmed his adversaries.
He made the grandest speech ever heard.
at the close of bis eloquent peroratien
the convention. gold men and ALL rose to
their feet and paid him homage. He was
nominated before he left the platform.
His speech was pure, rugged Americanism.
Mr.. Stewart went on to say that he knew
Bryan-that he believed that he was sin
cere and honest and would do for the
people all that they needed and desired.
Every silver man." continued Mr..
Stewart, was with us; friend of the
country and opposed to the British con-
troll of our finances. If they unite, and
they are uniting, they will march on To
victory" [Cheers.
The convention again took up the vet.
eran soldier resolution, and it was de-
cided to call the roll of States that the
chairman of delegations might announce
the mum ber of the veterans in each State
delegation. The call resulted in showing
1913 Union soldiers, IS Confederates and 1
Mexican soldiers represented in the con-
vention.
Miss Mitchell of Alton. Kans., was in
troduced, and recited a poem she had
written on 1.-THE Wall of William Whit
ney." 1t was semi-humorous, and the
various hits at Whitney, Hill and Depew
aroused intense enthusiasm. G. P. Scott,
formerly a Republican. said that he would
work to bury the party he had left. Re-
plying to reference to Cleveland, made
by delegate on the floor. Scott said:
''Oh, God, give us cyclones if they must
come; war, famine aud pests; but oh, God,
in thy mercy, save US from another four
wears of Grover Cleveland" He called in
conclusion for three cheers for Bryan and
they were given with will. After some
remarks by H. r. J. McAlver, General
Warner of Ohio moved an adjournment
until 3: 80 O'Clock and 1t was declared car
ried at :32.
