cratic state convention met TODAY
Senator Turpie was chairman. The
platform affirms the war with Spain
as just and righteous, and congratu-
lates the country on the sweeping

ism as result. 1t favors strong
navy, liberal pensions for the surviv-
ors Of the civil and present wars, the
free and unlimited coinage of silver,
construction and control of the Near
aguan canal by the government. 1t

What the Order Probably Means.

Washington, June 22.-The ordering of
Brigadier General Schwans command
at Mobile to Miami, Fla, is a prelimin-
airy step in the work Of dispatching the
expedition to Porto Rico. All the sur
plus rations at Mobile, which amount
almost to 1.00,000 will be shipped to
Miami. The fact that large amounts of
subsistence stores are gathered at
jacksonville and improvements for
camp purposes are being pushed at
Fernandina indicate the probability OF
sending additional troops to the former
place and some commands to the latter.
