Free Silver ut 10 to 1 Their Idol
Horace l.. Chapman for Governor
COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 1.-The Dem
ocratc state convention here yester-
day was one of the most memorable
political occasions in the history of
Ohio. 1t wal convention of
unanimity on principles and of differ
ences on men, and especially on those
who were C" ndidates fo.. p. res on the
the state ticket. In the contests for
favorites it was also a convention II
endurance; as the delegates took no
ously from 20 a. IN. until almost that
hour at night
II was n free silver convention
throughout. Every candidate whose
name was presented was announced as
orthodox on silver and the silver doc
trine as the cardinal principle for his
favorable consideration. While there
were some differences of opinion about
adopting the antitrust and Cuban res
olutions, there was not a dissenting
voice in the convention to the free and
unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio
of IS to 1, without the cooperation of
any other nation. And the name of
William j. Bryan was mentioned in
some way by every speaker as the only
sure way of bringing out chorus of
applause.
In addition to the state ticket nomi-
mated there is an implied arrangement
for John r. Mclean for senator, with
the state candidates as well as the
party organization for HIM.
Following is the ticket nominated:
For governor-Horacc L. Chapman.
For lieutenant governor-Melville
ID. Shaw.
For supreme judge. 7. Spriggs.
For attorney general-W. II. Dore.
For state treasurer-James +. Will
son.
For board of public worKs-Peter II.

THE TARIFF BILL.
RECIPROCITY AND RETAIL
ALTON AGREED TO.
Two Phases OF tho Pending Bill Dis
posed of After u Protracted Session
Party Lines Broken-Two Populist
Senators Vote for Reciprocity.

WASHINGTON, July 3. -Reciprocity
and retaliation were the two phases
of the tariff bill to occupy the atten-
ton of the Senate yesterday, to the
exclusion of all other subjects. Both
provisions were agreed to, although
the debate on the reciprocity clause
was protracted to 6 o'clock. Shortly
before adjournment Mr.. Allison en-
deavored to secure an agreement on
the time for final vote, but Mr.. Tel
Ter would not consent to fixing the
time until all proposed amendments
had been submitted to the Senate.
AS Mr.. Allison was not prepared to
submit these amendments, he with
drew his request
The retaliatory clause provides that
whenever any country bestows an ex'
port bounty on any article, there shall
be levied, in addition to the duties
provided by the act, an additional
duty equal to the amount of the
bounty.
Mr.. Chandler, Republican, of New
Hampshire said he would vote for the
retaliatory clause with extreme re-
luctance. He had been told that Ger
many would begin n course of com
mercial warfare against the United
States, and he would make sacrifices
to prevent friction between the en-
pire of Germany and the United
States But the senator said he did
not see how this retaliatory clause
could be avoided if the protective
character of the bill was to be pre-
served.
The retaliatory clause was agreed to
-33 to 10. Two Democrats, Gallery
and McEnery OF Louisiana and Messrs,
Allen and Kyle voted with the Re-
publicans in the affirmative, and
Messrs Mantle and Teller with the
Democrats in the negative.
The reciprocity clause empowers the
president, with the advice and con-
sent of the Senate, to make reci-
procity treaties giving 20 per cent re.
duction in duties on designated arti-
cles, or placing articles on the free
list. The amendment brought out
much opposition. Senators Mills, Vest,
Pettus. Teller and White saying that
it evaded the constitutional right of
the House of Representatives to par
ticipate in measures affecting revenue,
while Senators Morgan, Gray and
Chandler defended its legality and
propriety. 1t was agreed to-3O to is.
two Damoprats (,rav and MORGAN and

Determined Effort Made to Get the
Youngers From Minnesota Prison.
ST. PAUL. Mimi, July 3,-The effort
to secure the pardon of the Younger
boys for the part they took in the ia
nous Northfield raid of score of
years ago has taken such shape that it
is to be formally brought before the
state board of pardons at its meeting

long as the average life sentence, and
a powerful influence in their behalf is

In anticipation of the efforts for n
pardon, Cole has decided to break his
silence and reserve on the subject of
the raid, steadily maintained ever
since his capture, and will make
statement before the board. He will

Wages-sO. 900 steel Workers Out.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, July g. 1T was Of
tcially announced to-day that gen
eral strike of miners belonging to the
United Mine Workers of America in
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana. West
Virginia and Illinois had been ordered
for July 4 by the national executive
board and also by the district presi-
dents, as the result of the meeting
held here June "a, % and &c. The
strike order affects probably 375, 600
men.
The official document says:
ITO the Mine Workers of the Coun-
try, reeting-Fellow Miners: At the
last annual convention of the United
Mine Workers Of America, held in the
city of Columbus Ohio, January 1916,
1897, it was determined that the scale
of prices should be advanced to the
following rates: Pennsylvania, Pitts
burg district, pick mining, sixty mine
cents per ton: Ohio, sixty cents per
ton; Indiana (bituminous), sixty cents
per ton; Illinois Grape Creek), fifty five
cents per tom machine mining to be
paid three -fifths per ton of the price
FOR pick mining, except in Indiana
(bituminous), where the price shall be
four fifths per ton of the price paid
for pick mining; other mining sections
corresponding increase in price that
will place them on a relative basis 1t
was further agreed that the time for
enforcement of the scale be left with
the national executive board and the
district presidents to determine when
it would be most opportune to put this
scale into effect.
The document then urges unanimitT
and fidelity among the members and
continues: "The signs of the times,
as pointed out by the press and by the
testimony of men versed in public af-
fairs is that business is reviving, that
an upward tendency in prices of all
commodities is apparent. In the gen
eral business revival and Industrial
Improvement which is earnestly pro-
claimed, we ought to share, and if we
do not attempt to share we shall be
false to ourselves and those dependent
upon us. LEU Uic WubCuNOIu bC,
mine workers are entitled to fair
days pay for fair days work. ~
Local committees are directed to be
formed and to see that action is taken
at once and local leaders are urged to
assume responsibility and authority.
ITO insure success, the document
says, great care should be exercised
py all that no breach of the peace oc-
ours at any time or place, or under
any circumstances. Bulletins will be
issued from time to time to keep you
Informed of the progress of affairs.
The national executive board is COM
posed of Fred Dilcher, R. l.. Davis, }.
Fl. Kennedy, Harry Stephenson, James
NJ. Carson and Patrick Dolan. NJ ID,
Ratchford is president of the national
executive board, John Kane vice pres
;dent and w. c. Pearce secretary.
Officers here say BIS, 900 men are in
Volved as proposed strikers. President
catch ford says this is the best time to
settle the question of wages as during
the summer the men can make use OF
their little garden plots in obtaining
subsistence, and the needs of clothing
are not so great as in winter.

MAY BE A REBELLION.
Situation in India Is Causing Great
Anxiety

LONDON, July ,. -The newspapers of
this city express anxiety at the occur
rences in India, intimating that the
mass of the natives there are less con-
tent under British rule than was gen
orally believed, and that a rebellion of
unpleasant proportions may be threat
ening. Constant communications are
passing between the Indian and home
governments.
In spite of the cessation of the riots,
the situation is regarded as extremely
grave; and it is felt that, unless some
official is invested with plenary powers
during the absence of the governing
authorities European citizens will be
compelled to act on their own re-
sponsibility.
