The cruiser Buffalo, lately the Mic

in Hampton Roads today directly from

lists. She has been acquired subject to
conditions that will be doubtless be

but which have not been met. They are
that the ship must be turned over IN

1t will be good news for the many per

growing out of ill treatment in Cuba or
the loss of property sustained there, to
know that the state department has not
lost sight of them and their interests are
to be fully conserved when it comes to a

developed an unexpected second choice
sentiment for Stanley.
Mr.. Hessin is losing ground by in
sisting upon fight. He made an eff
fort to prevent the selection of Burton
for chairman but at a late hour last
night, worn out with continued eau
cusing Seaton, Hood and Stanley, fore
ed Hessin to accept Burton and the
struggle of two days over that office
was brought to an end.
The fight on Leland is the most i'm
pOrtant feature of the convention at
this hour. 1t is figured that if he can
be defeated here, the result will do him
frreparable injury. The unfortunate
part of this contest is that Major Hood
is made a party to it, because of Le-
lands avowed support for him.
The Hood forces are making a heroic
struggle to combat the Leland fight but
some of them are discouraged and in
dulge in frequent criticism of Leland
because he has been responsible for the
fight on Major Hood, and if the En-
poria man meets defeat, the result will
be chargeable to Leland's support of
him.
The delegates were early on their
way to the auditorium in the country,
walking in mud and water, the result
