OMAHA, July 1.-THE programme
for the convention of the Republican
league today included reports by COM
mittees and an address by ex-President
Woodmansee, of Cincinnati. Only one
committee was ready to report in full,
that on credentials. 1t had no contests
to dispose of save the one from illinois,
This was decided in favor of the regu-
lars, the antiTanner men being given
no representation. The report of the
committee was adopted as read. Presi-
dent Woodmarsee then addressed the
convention. The committee on time
and place of location for the next con-
vention, met this morning, but has not
yet agreed on it's report. 1t is quite
probable that the matter will be turned
over to the executive committee of the
league to be settled during recess.
The committee on resolutions will
present report indorsing the admin
istration Of President Mckinley, and,
of course, of congress, in providing for
the war and the annexation of Hawaii,
and will also eulogize the administra-
ton of President Crawford, of the
league. The committee on league work
has some changes to suggest in the
organization for the purpose of extend
ing the scope of the league. There is
a little change in the presidential stu
alton today. 1t now appears that the
race is between Dingley, of Michigan,
and. Doyle, of Maryland, with the
chances seemingly in favor of Dinghy.
1t is asserted that TIE Pennsv'va Ma
forces have given up the idea Of elect
ing Sobel, of Erie, and Will give their
support to Dingley.
The different state delegations have
selected their national vice presidents,

A motion to hold the next conven-
ton at ST. Paul was tabled, and the
matter was left to the executive com
mittee.
GOLD STANDARD DEMANDED.
The report of the committee on ere
dentials was adopted without division.
1t made no reference to the anti-Tanner
delegation from Illinois.
When the report of the committee on
rules and order of business came. there
was a short fight. The committee re-
ported in favor of going ahead and
considering cases. This was supported
by the followers of j.. Goodman Boyd,
of Maryland, and opposed by the Ding
ley men. of Michigan. After some
