Mr.. Wappenhans did not seem to take
kindly TO the prediction in yesterdays
Journal that since the ball team had left
the city he might find 1t in his heart to
give Wildwood chance by sending along
a little fair weather. AS a result of his
manipulations of the electrical currents
heavy storm came about o'clock yester-
day afternoon and continued for about two
hours. In spite of all this there were about
two hundred people at Wildwood Park The
members of the company went out little
expecting that anyone would brave the ele-
ments, but intending to pe prepared to give
a show If any came. The rendition Of

the audience was balanced by the vocifer-
Gus encorcs of those present. Seven hearty
encores were responded TO. Miss Knapp

JUDGE COX'S TONGUE.
Turned Loose ON Patrolman Rinker
for Clubbing a Prisoner.

Judge Cox yesterday reprimanded patrol
man Rinker for clubbing John Wilhelm.
whom Rinker arrested Saturday on a
charge of intoxication. The reprimand was
public and severe. Wilhelm was discharged
and afterward filed charges against Rinker
with the Board of Safety. Rinker feels
that he was not treated fairly by the court.
He claims he did his best to avoid arrest
ing Wilhelm. who was with his wife on
West Washington street and insisting upon
getting another drink in a saloon supposed
to be closed during the school elections.
His wife wanted him to get in their buggy
and go home, and hinted that he might be
arrested by patrolman Rinker. who was
standing near. Wilhelm then began abus-
ing the police in general and Rinker in
particular. Rinker says he tried to quiet
Wilhelm and induce him to go home. but
wilhelm got more boisterous and finally
assaulted him.

Seating Contested Southern Dele

Seating Contested Southern Dele
gates at the St. Louis Convention.
WASHINGTON, March THE great
number of eontesting delegates from
the South, who will knock at the doors
of the Republican convention ct st.
Louis, will impose a particularly deli
cate duty upon the national committee,
whose duty it is to make UP the
temporary roll of the convention. One
of the ante-convention stories which
gained currency today was to the eff
feet that the secretary of the National
Republican committee, Hon. Thomas
Manley, of Maine, will have the power
to make the temporary roll, and may
admit to the floor whatever delega tes
he chooses. This statement is alto
gether incorrect, for although the clerk
of the house of representatives makes
up the roll of the house at the begin
ming of a congress, no such authority
has ever been given to the secretary
of the National Republican committee.
An official statement was made by Mr..
Manley, the secretary of the commit
tee, which follows: The secretary Of
the National Republican convention
has no power whatever to make up the
temporary rolls of the national con-
Vention. The temporary roll is made
up by the full national committee.
Neither has the national committee
any power to select the committee on
credentials. The committee on creden-
tials is selected as follows: The dele
gates from each state and territory
to the national convention select one Of
their own number as a member of the
committee on credentials. Again if the
secretary of the national committee
had the power to make up the temper
ary roll of the convention it is believed
and known he would not in any way
permit his preference for presidential
candidate to influence his decision in
making up that roll.

The building will be used exclusively
as the headquarters of the Mckinley
forces, and meetings will be held every
day. Some of the greatest political
orators in the country will deliver
speeches there for Mckinley during the
convention week. The Exposition
building is centrally located and but
