of order and harmony.

After he was defeated in his motion
to refer nominations and other decisive
action to the national committee, Mr..
Palmer attempted repeatedly to get
the floor on a question of personal
privilege. He was interrupted by
chorus of other obiectors who insist
ed on proceeding with the nomina
tions. At this juncture the disturb
ance became so fierce that the man
ager of the Lyceum appeared and re-
quested the assemblage to vacate the
hall, as he was apprehensive of the
security of his property. The Butler
faction, led by Mr.. Palmer, of Illinois,
then left the hall and the other faction
proceeded with the nominations. After
numerous nominating and seconding
speeches a ballot was taken for presi
dent, resulting as follows: Wharton
Barker, of Pennsylvania, 12S As; Igna-
| thus Donnelly, of Minnesota, 90 LIS.
On motion of Mr.. Donnelly the nomi
nation of Mr.. Barker was made unani-
nous. Ignatius Donnelly was then
nominated by acclamation for vice
president.
A very long platform was adopted
llC VI
the Omaha platform, as well as the adj
dress adopted at the morning session.
The declarations in the platform do
not differ from those of other plat
forms except in the plank which espe-
cially denounces Senator Marion But
ler, of North Carolina, as chairman
of their national committee for at
tempting ''to drive the populist party
into the democratic organization"
The resolutions also provide for the
reorganization of the party with Mil
ton Park. of Dallas, Tex, as chairman.
The boiling delegates said they were
instructed not to participate in the
nomination of ticket.
The convention adjourned without
fixing time or place for another con-
vention and they consider their cam
paign for 1000 now opened.
The most important feature of the
convention was the adoption of the
referendum system as the cardinal
principle in the future of the govern
ment of the reorganized party. After
the nominations had been made reso-
luton was adopted providing that the
nominations just made be referred to
| a referendum of the voters of the peo-
ple's party of all states and territories,
and that said referendum be taken in
accordance with the rules adopted by
this convention for the future govern
ment of the party. These rules consti-
tute a radical substitute for those
adopted at St. Louis in 1896. The main
change provides that the new peoples
party shall never again hold dele
gate convention of any sort, national
state, district or local, but that the
nominations for all offices shall be
made through "the initiative and
referendum, or petitions endorsed by
popular vote"
Those who followed Palmer, of Hi.
nois, out of the convention afterward
held conference and appointed a
committee which drafted another ad.
dress to the peoples party of the
United States.

New York, Sept. 6.-The wheat crop
of 1898 is not quite up to promise, ac-
cording to the report of the American
Agriculturist. This says that in a few
states the promise of wheat was not
fulfilled in actual grain by a large
margin, while in number of states
the rate of yield was even greater
than indicated on July /. But with
full allowance for all disappointment,
the fact remains that the crop this
year is the largest on record. The
reported rate of yield in winter wheat
rs 1913 bushels per acre and in spring
wheat 1874 bushels.

probably will not resume the functions
of secretary of state and it may be as
sumed that his connection with the
department save in the capacity of
peace commissioner terminated when
he left Washington for Ohio recently.
Upon his return to Washington it is
expected that he will come to the state
department for the purpose of bidding
farewell to the employees.
1t may be said positively now that
Justice White, of the supreme court,
has finally declined the tender of a
membership in the Spanish-American

on the commission has been offered to

he will be impeached. But 1t Is hardly prob
able that republicans would impeach him,
as it would be used against their party.
With the exception OF a remarkably lin
tied coterie the governor has no friendS
in his own party. c. 7. Bailey. the repuo-
lican postmaster here, says:
The governor has no friends save the
convicts he has pardoned and the lawyers
he IS feeding"
1t is easy TO see from this that the gov
ernor will have but few friends in the leg
islature. unless among the populfsts, with
whom he has been afiliating.
These sidel'ghts the queer political
situation in North Carolina interesting
and they reveal the facts as they are today.
The democratic leaders say that their con-
troll of the lower house of the legislature
IS a certainty. They go further and assert
that they will carry the house. The fusion
lists (populists and republicans on the
other hand declare that it Is impossible for
the democrats to overcome the heavy ma
tority against them. which at present Is 81.
The democrats in reply say that this is
"a democratic year" that here will be a
complete destruction OF the fusion fabric.
There are made SO many claims and coun-
ter-claims that it is difficult to see the facts
as they really are.
Perhaps it will be considered entirely fair
to take the statements made to your cor
respondent by a republican from the first
district who has looked over the situation
and who declares that he speaks of the
state Of things without bias. He says:

dence IN his ability to carry this plan to
a successful! conclusion and earnestly wish
ed him good luck" Sampson apparently
felt certain of the presence of the Span
iards at Santiago and urged that the har
Dor must be bockaded at all hazards.
Schley in the meantime had proceeded to
Santiago, although it appears not the
same day Admiral Sampson expected. At
one time Commodore Schley contemplated
going to Key West with the squadron for
coal. but this was abandoned the repairs
to mis- collier having been Temporarily
made and the necessity for a trip to Key
West being avoided. Santiago was then
blockaded. The admiral congratulated the
commodore on his success and directed
him to maintain a close blockade at all
hazards, especially at night.
Schley Recognizes the Enemy.
Then follows telegrams from Schley
showing that he had recognized the enemy
in the port and from Secretary Long TO
SchIey Dointjng out that the most alb
soIute urgent thing was to know positively
whether the Spanish division was in the
harbor. If they were an immediate army
and navy movement was to be made. IN
one dispatch the secretary said It would
be dscreditable to the navy if the pres
ence of the Spanish fleet were not as"er-
tanned Immediately. The cOmmoGores s
dispatch evidently had nos been received
at the department when the secretary S
kilograms were sent. Meanwhile Admiral
Sampson had made arrangements to pro-
ceed to Santiago with a number OF ms
vessels. He arrived there June %.
Then follows a historical resume OF the
doings of the fleet while off Santiago, of
the bombardment OF the forts, of the
taking of the lower bay at Guantanamo
bv the Marblehead and the Yankee copies
of 1nemorandums regarding methods of
blockades. kilograms hearing on the pro-
posed army movement to Santiago, etc.
practically all of which is told in official
telegrams on June 8th the admiral urged
upon the depa rtment. as he had previously
DONE to expedite the arrival of troops for
Santiago. the difficulty of biociading the
Spanish ships daily increasing. On June
10th a dispatch was received showing that
the army expedition was temporarily stop
ped because of the reported observation
of additional Spanish vessels in American
waters. In a memorandum dated june 18th
the admiral says
THE commandcr-in-chief desires again
TO call the attention of commanding Of
fcars to the positions occupied by the
bloClading fleet especially during the day
time, and 1t is now directed that all ships
keep within a distance Of the entrance
to Santiago of four miles and this distance
must not be exceeded. II the vessel is
C0aling or is otherwise restricted In her
movements, she must nevertheless keep
within this distance. If at any time the
flagship makes signal which Is not visible
to any vessel such vessel must at once
approach the flagship or repeating vessel
to a point where she can read the sig
nal.

already been given on this head has led to
