Plant No. is now in active operation,

President Ryan, who, with Engineer
Fedden and Electrician Gardiner, is
making tests said that having full knowl-
edge of Jernegan's process, tests will be
made to the satisfaction of all concerned.
He is not sanguine OF the results, but
hopes for success. He refused to state how
many accumulators were being used in
the test but admitted there were a large
number at work, as many as could be
used after the injuries done to them by
Fisher. The dynamos have been run
ming three days and will be kept going
until Monday, when the accumulators
will be examined. The results of tho test
will be reported to the officials OF the
company and afterward by circular to

fishing house which had made inquiries
of him concerning the conduct of the
war with reference to the medical de-
partmeEt and about the subject Of hav-
ing an immediate investigation Of his
behavior.
He says:
II am ready at any moment for q COM
plete Investigation with reference to my
administration Of the affairs OF the med

rnent is not disposed to make such an
investigation as the result Of sensational
newspaper articles. There is at present
an evident craze to criticize without re-
gard to truth or justice. have NO
doubt there will be Congressional in
vestigation into the conduct of the war;
but do not feel at liberty at present to
insist upon an Investigation for my own
vindication because it would be contrary
to the general interests of the service.
There has been no official complaint
with reference to my administration OF

NOTHING SAID OF EXPANSION.
Iowa Republicans Indorse Presidents

Dubuque. Ia, September 1.-The Re-
publican convention today was decld-
eddy administration in all it's actions and
speeches. No other sentiment. than that
Of approval was heard any where Major
Lacey, temporary chairman sounded the
keynote and 1t was emphasized by Sena-
tor Allison in his speech as permanent
chairman.
The senator was looked upon as eohoing
the sentiments Of sPresident MCKINNEY
and his Washington cabinet, and, believ-
ing that the delegates gave their approval
and endorsement of the administration s
policy. There was some disappointment
over the failure to e1nphaticnlly declare
for the holding and control of all con-
ouered territory but the delegates were
thoroughly convinced that what had been
done was practically the voice of the
national government and so were con-
tented.
The senator said in part:
"Two years ago we elected Hon; VII.
oontinned applause The affairs of this
country have been managed by him and
his cabinet during these two years with
fidelity and with single purpose of
patriotic effort in way to meet the
approbation Of the American people. We
have seen what I have never seen before
in a long service Of my countrywide
after vote cast during the last session OF
Congress giving the unanimous support
of the representatives OF this country to
this great and COOL man and his admin
istYation.
follows:
1--WE congratulate the country upon
the wise and patriotic administration of
president Mckinley, and we regard the
measures and the policies thereof as the
concrete expression of Republican states

his course during the present war with
Spain.
His wisdom and forbearance in seeking
peaceable solution Of the Cuban ques-
ton before resorttng to arms, while at the
same time prudently preparing for war
armed intervention necessary his vigor
and energy in the prosecution of the war.
The experience of the past two years
has fully approved the gold standard
policy Of the republican party as declared
bv the national convention Of 1896. We
recognize the necessity OF comprehensive
and monetary legislation. The monetary
standard Of this country and the com-
meroial world is gold. The permanance
OF this standard must be assured BY con-
gressional Legislation, giving to It the
value and vitality of public law. All
other metal must be kept at parity OF
gold. The policies of reciprocity and
protection are re-Amrmed.
