BEACON FOR TREASURER
PENNSYLVANIA REPUBLICANS REAFFIRM
ST. LOUIS PLATFORM.
Quiet Convention, Full Attendance of Delegates
But Little Enthusiasm in the Small
Crowd of Gallery Shouters.

Harrisburg, Pa, Aug. 26.-The Re
publican State convention comprising
1863 delegates, met in this city to-day
and nominated James S. Beacon, of
Westmoneland county for State Treas
urer and Maj. Levi G. MeCauley, of
Chester county for auditor general. The
latter had no opposition but the Ale
gheny county delegates, under the leader
ship of State Senator G. L. Magee, placed
the name of State Senator John A.
Crawford, of that county before the con-
vention in opposition to Mr.. Beacon. No
active canvass was made in Crawford's
behalf, however, and he received but
nine votes besides the thirtyone cast for
him by his home delegation.
The platform ratifies and reaffcms
the st. Louis declaration of principles,
congratulates the people on the passage
of the Dingley bill and the return of
prosperity, pledges the party to maintain
just, reasonable and equitable civil SER
vice system, denounces ex-President
Cleveland for his "abuse Of its powers" I"
forms, the purifca ton of elections and
the free exercise Of the elective fran
! chise. endorses the administration of
President Mckinley, and Gov. Hastings,
regrets the defeat of the reform bills
by the late legislature and recommends
the passage of the bill requiring the pay
ment of interest on State deposits.
The harmony which prevailed was of
the most pronounced sort and there was
not a ripple on the surface to mar the
serenity of the proceedings. The dele
gates appeared to take only a languid in
terest in the work Of the convention
although the nominees, when they were
introduced at the close of the meeting
were given cordial greeting.
The convention was held as usual, in
the Harrisburg Opera House. While
there was a full attendance of delegates,
1.-THE gathering was notable for the alb
sence of the usual throng of visitors and
shouters that has marked the conyen-
tions Of the party in past years.

CUTTING RATES IN THE WEST.
Unexpected Stab of the Kansas City,
Ft. Scott and Memphis.

Chicago, Aug. 26.-An unexpected and
puzzling move on the part of the Kan
sas City, Fort Scott and Memphis road,
threw the Western roads into a state of
excitement to-day. This road gave no.
tice that effective to-day it would re-
duce grain rates from Kansas City to
New Orleans from 81 cents to Is cents,
the reduction to continue in force till
September 9th. The rate will apply on
export grain only. The action Of this
line is incomprehensible to the other
roads as they all have more grain than
they can move at present charges. I'm
der ordinary circumstances the cut
would be met from Chicago and st.
Louis. AS things now are and as the
rate is only in for a limited period, the
probabilities are that it will be ignored.
In contrast to the action of the Memphis
line the Illinois Central announces that
beginning September 9th it will advance
its rate on export corn from 10 to 10
cents between Chicago and New Orleans.

Special Dispatch to The CALI.

PALO ALTO, Dec. 1O.-The committee
in charge OF student honor which has
been investigating the conduct of the stu
dents who were cele brating their Thanks
giving victory in too lively a manner met
formally today and decided to suspend
four students. The earliest date at which
these students can re-enter will be Sep
tember. 1898.
Ihe action OF the committee, which con-
sisted OF DR.. w. w. ThobUrn and Profes-
sors Grlfln, Green and A. w. Smith, was
not surprise in college circles. Rumors
have come from time to time of what was
likely to occur. The students have been
discussing the proba Bile outcome for sew
eral days and those who were im moderate
OH that eventfuI night an town" have
been waiting in fear and trem bling to
know if they were slated.
None but the dreaded committee know
the names of the ill-iated four. They may
never be found out, Tor it will be easy to
remain about until college closes and then
drop out with the scores who leave eyery
semester.
1hls move of the committee, coming as
II does before DR.. Jordan's recent plain
talk on college honor has ceased 10 be
the chief subject OF conversation, seems
sirikingly significant. The faculty h
however, adopted no new policy. Men
whose moral influence is bad have never
been wanted at Stanford and have
been weeded out as fast as their acts
woult justify the faculty in proceeding.
DR.. Jordan's talk merely prepaIei the
way, so that the news when il came
might not inordinaiely disturb the COL
lege equilibrium at this time of final ex.
amination>.
Dr. Jordan was PRESENTED with the
names OF the susI ended students this al
ternoon. The number seemed surprs-
lngly small in view of the fact that all
kinds of ill-founded rumors were going
the rounds, one Of which false reports
found publication to-day in a San Fran
cisco daily.
The committee has still listed a goodly
number OF students into whose behavior
and moral character keen inquiry will be
made Nothing further will be done until
next week, when 4 further eradication will
pro bly, take place. Dr.. Jordan we'll
states the position OF the faculty when he
says:
When a Stanford man enters a saloon.

carries with him his colors, his college or
