BRYAN AND DEWEY
The Only Pictures at the Illinois
Democratic Convention.

Springfield. Ill, July 12.-The Demo-
cratic state convention was called to or
der this afternoon by Chairman Orr of
the state central committee There were
no pictures in the hall except those of
William J. Bryan and Admiral Dewey.
Preceding the convention there was a
hot fight at the meeting of the delegates
from the Tenth congressional district over
the selection of a member of the state
central committee. Ben T. Gable. who
two years ago was one of the leading gold
Democrats of the country. was put in
nomination and was bitterly opposed by
a. w. Bostian of Whiteside and Others
who insisted that if he wished TO return
TO the Democratic fold he should wait two
years on probation.
st. Peter went back on Christ" re-
4orted Chairman c. K Ladd, ''and yet
they say he has the key to heaven today
Chairman Ladd vouched for Mr.. Gable
as now being in thorough accord with the
Chicago platform.
Cable was finally elected over Frank
Jacks Of Stark county by a vote of 50
to IL
= motion to make his selection unani-
NOUS met with much opposition and was
withdrawn.

of kilograms of a personal nature from
Commodore Schley and it is believed
from Admiral Sampson as we'll It is
supposed they have been called forth
by the newspaper controversy over the
credit for the victory over the Spanish
squadron, a controversy which is most
earnestly deprecated by the officials of
the navy department. Secretary Long
declines to make public these cable
grams, though it is believed they tend
to demonstrate the existence of good
relations between the two officers and
a disposition on the part of both to be
adjudged strictly according to the
canons of naval law.
The Christopher Columbus.
Admiral Sampson has cabled to the
department that he believes the wreck
ing plant which is now on it's way
down to Santiago to endeavor to save
some of the Spanish ships is sufficient
for the purpose, so far as the question
of mere capacity is concerned. The
naval officers are particularly DESTROYS
that the CristobaI Colon shall be saved
and be pI aced on the American list IN
der the anglicised name of Christopher
Columbus.
Surrender Looked For.
Washington, July 12.-At the cabinet
meeting today kilograms from General
Shafter were read and discussed, but
no new plan of campaign was consid-
cred or important orders given. General
Skaters report that he had the city
of Santiago completely invested was
received with much satisfaction, as
there had been some apprehension that
the Spaniards were contemplating a
night evacuation
Secretary Alger on leaving the cab
met meeting said that although General
Skaters line on the west was thin in
places he had no doubt that it was
sufficiently strong to repel any attack
the enemy was capable of making at
this time. 1t was the secretary's opin-
ion that the Spaniards were now com
pletely cut off from outside aid and it
was now only a question of prompt sur
render, or a fight which would result
in their capture. It was Secretary AL
gers opinion as well as that of other
members of the cabinet, that the Span
iards would surrender rather than take
the risks Of a general assault.
Heavy Rains.
Washington, July 12.-At p. m. Sec
rotary AIger said he had received no
since the dispatch given out in the fore
noon. He thought matters were IN
changed therefore and assumed that a
flag of truce was still flying and that
the enemy were negotiating for a sur
render. The only message received
from SibOney was a short dispatch
from Gen Miles regarding transporta-
ton in the course of which he said:
1.-THE rains are the. heaviest have ever
known"

anniversary of the Battle of the Boyne.

mems lodges are represented, and as each
has a fife and drum corps, martial music
was the strong feature of the big parade
this afternoon. Grand Master Lloyd and
other officers rode in a carriage decorated
with both the Union Jack and the stars
and stripes.
The usual programme of sports, speeches
and picnicking was carried out at Pine
Grove park after the parade.

Ewes on the East.

The naval officers regard their part
in the operations at Santiago as at an
end practically and are looking around
for new wOrIUS to conquer Their eyes
are turned to the east and they are
rushing preparations for the dispatch
of Commodore WatsOn's eastern squad
ron. This is decidedly a more attrac-
tive cruise from naval point of view
than the demonstration proposed
against San Juan de Porto Rico which
is understood to be the next number
on the programme but which the naval
authorities believe will not amount to
much because of the easy reduction of
the defences. Every ship in Watson's
squadron has been prescribed the very
latest charts, not only of the coasts
of Spain and of the Mediterranean but
of track courses that will take them
clear to the Philippines. In addition to
this the few officers assigned to the
vessels of this squadron, but not yet
aboard, have received orders from the
department to go to their ships at once
Notice of the departure of some of the
vessels therefore may be looked for at
any moment.
Secretary Long has been in receipt

Miles VIII Not Interfere.

Gen. Miles has not taken and will
not take charge Of the operations now
being conducted against Santiago.
Whatever credit is to be derived from
the capture of that city to come from
the present plan of operation by Gen.
Shafter will rebound to that officers
credit, for Gen. Miles has declared ex-
pressIy that he does not assume the
conduct of these operations. He is
simply in his capacity as commanding
general of the army to look over the
field and ascertain whether the opera
lions are going along as they should.
But with his appearance comes very
substantial assistance for Gen. Shafter.
With him on the Yale were more than
1000 men and considerable artillery
while the Columbia, which formed part
of his expedition, is expected to report
her arrival at any moment with the re-
mainder of the troops. AS Gen. Shat
ter has referred to the thinness of his
lines, it Is expected that these rein
forcements will be very gratefully re-
ceiVed.

SOME SLIGHT FEAR
That the Bulk of the Enemy
Has Escaped
And That Little Will Be Left
Worth Having.

Copyright. 1889, by Associated Press.)
Gen. Skaters Headquarters, July IL,
p. m, via Kingston, Jamaica, July II.
Fighting continued during the day
and at this hour, it is believed that the
city of Santiago will be captured by the
American forces within the next "a
hours.
The Americans have advanced
steadily all day. In several of the
Spanish trenches, our troops found
dummy wooden guns and no Spanish
soldiers.
There was a very weak fire from the
Spanish troops and the American troops
have received further evidence of the
great distress existing in Santiago.
Fear Spaniards Are Gone.
Washington, July 12.-The expecta-
ton was general today that Santiago
would be ours very soon. The main
source of apprehension today was that
the Spaniards may have succeeded to a
considerable degree in evacuating the
town before the American lines were
completed so that when the Americans
empty with perhaps nothing more than
a desperate rear guard of Spaniards
left to protect and conceal the retreat
of the main body of troops. There were
several indications of some such move,
which is supposed to have been in pro-
gress for the past three or four days.
Gen. Shafter himself reported under
date of Sunday that the Spaniards have
evacuated a small town on the west
side of the bay, one of the suburbs of
Santiago, while the Associated Press
dispatches of yesterday referred to the
departure of a body of Spanish troops
from Santiago towards HoIguin. Of
course these facts are not conclusive
that the town has been evacuated by
the Spanish army, but the fact cannot
be concealed that there is some appre-
hensiOn entertained that the main re-
suit of the investment of Santiago,
aside from the important achievement
of driving the Spanish squadron to its
destruction will be the inheritance by
Gen. Shafter of several thousand
wounded Spanish soldiers and many
more thousand hungry mouths in San
tiagO.
Gen. Miles who arrived at SibOney on
the Yale yesterday made the following
report to Secretary Alger today:
Arrived at noon. Had consultation
with Admiral Sampson and with Gen.
from Tampa, Charleston, New York,
arrived and leaving for the front. Line
of investment being extended. (Signed)
