The Washington Post says: One bill is
before the Maryland Legislature, and others
are 10 process OF incubation, to authorize
County Commissioners to pat inmates of the
jails at work on the roads. The bill re.
ferred to not only authorizes the employ
ment OF those men in making or mending
highways, but empowers the Commission.
ers TO hire them out to those who want Ia.
Dor. The chief, and perhaps the sole, OBJ.
ject of this measure is to terrify the souls of
labor hating tramps, 30 that they will move
out and keep out. Should such bill pass,
and its provisions be made applicable to all
the counties in Maryland, nothing but
thorough enforcement of the law will lie
required to rid the State of a majority of the
tramps who annually assess its people for
subsistence for some weeks or months. If
General Coxey's army had known that to
encamp 10 Maryland meant arrest, convic.
ton and work, that pitiful aggregation of
Migrants would not have established itself
at Hyattsville. In fact, it would not have
marched from Cumberland to Washington
on the Maryland side of the Potomac.

New York Times says: Nothing is more
adapted to excite unfeeing mirth than the
attitude of our leading legislators upon the
exclusion by Prussia of American imports.
Mr.. Dingley's indignation is almost too great
Tor utterance as he observes that the exclu
sion of our horses is ain line" with the ex
clusion OF our fruit. One member of the
House thinks that the State Department
should insist that Prussia stop trading with
US "in straightforward way" if at all, in
stead of by attacking our products on SAM
tary grounds" thereby laying upon the State
Department an extremely difficult task
Another member suggests that we might
retaliate on German wines and German
sugar. All these statesmen show signs of
pain that Prussia should be pursuing in re.
gard to American products the policy of
exclusion which they have been enforcing
against Prussian products. 1t is familiar
knowledge that it makes great difference
whose OK is gored, but the prudent protec-
ZIONIST can at least maintain silence when
1t is shown to him that his rule can work
both ways.

about 1,500 sick soldiers i'm the hospitals
at this park, only about 500 of tins numbcr

a majority of these are not of a NIrulent
type.
Immediately upon the opening If the
Sternberg hospital on the 10th nst. all
the most virulent cases of typhoid fever
were transferred to the division and rogi-
mental hospitals Instead of deaths by

hospital reveals that a large majority of
the patients are improving and that as a
rule, they are cheerful and hopeful.
Through the surgeon general the hospital
is supplied with all the dolicacies neces-
sary, including ice, milk, spring chickens,

committee. Three hundred delegates,
representing 30 counties Of the state,
were present. G.. VI. Dixon Of Sacra-
mento was elected permanent chairman.
The report of the committee on plat
form, which was adopted, reafirms
fealty To the principles of the republi-
can party as enunciated by Abraham
Lincoln and James q. Blaine: reafIirms
the plank I'm the platform of the
democratic party in 1896 declaring in
favor of the free coinage of both gold
and silver at the ration of 16 to l.
The Dingley law is condemned. as is
also the action of the administration in
issuing bonds to carry on the war, but
the declaration Of war with Spain is

of cuba. The construction of the Mic
araguan cannal by the United States is
urged.

Boise, Idaho, Aug. 27.-As predicted
in these dispatches last night, the DEM
ocrats to-day kicked the populists out
| and formed a combination with the sill
YER republicans. The ultimatum issued
To the populists yesterday requiring
them to settle their disputes by s
o'clock this morning with isolation as
the alternative proved to have been
only a bluff. The democrats practical
ly took it all back and reopened nego-
tiations for a general silver union. Late
in the afternoon, however. another ul-
timatum was issued. and when the time
was up the populists were as badly di-
vided as ever. and the democra tic con-
ference committee was instructed to
confer with the silver republicans ex-
Clusively. This cleared the atmosphere
and at this hour the conference COM
mittees are engaged In an effort to
equitably divide the offices between the
two parties. 1t is said all the nomi-
nations will have been made before
midnight.

by the democratic and silver republi-

The middle of the-road populists
adopted their platform this afternoon.

coinage of silver and gold at the ratio
of Is to 1: for direct legislation. in
Cluding the initiative and referendum;
condemns the national administration
for issuing bonds in payment of war
debts; demands that title to state

state, being leased but not sold. de-
mands abolition of the fee system of
paying public officers; demands a law
prohibiting the making of contracts
permitting deficiency judgment upon

state upon request of any principal di-
vision of the legislature to express it's
opinion as 10 the constitutionality Of
any proposed legislation: recognizes
with pride the splendid loyalty and
courage of the army and navy during
the war with Spain and congratulates
the women of the state upon their en-
franchise ment.
Later-The fusion popuists have
nominated Gum for congress independ-
entity. but have made no other nomina-
tions.
Although the democrats and silver
republicans have resolved together To
the exclusion of the populists, there is
a big row on over the nominations that
has tied things up. at least tempo
rarily. The silver republican confer
enCe committee demanded the COVER
norship. but the democratic committee
instructed its conference To insist upon
the governorship. The silver republi-
cans, Notwithstanding this, declined to
recede and they have referred the mat
ter TO their convention.

DID GREAT WORK.
Officers Are Proud of the Behavior of the
Nesuyius.


New York. Aug. 27.-Admiral Samp-
sons squadron down the bay has been
increased by the arrival of the Nesu-
vius. The dynamite cruiser came up
from Guantanamo. Cuba. whence il
sailed on Aug. Is under orders to pro-
ceed to New York. The excursionists
down the bay recognized Lieutenant
Commander Pillshury's boat and
crowded about Immediately after it
came to anchor off Tompkinsville Only
the booming of great guns was lacking
to make the welcome complete, for
there was a dipping of flags and whs-
ties and horps of all kinds made a ter
rife noise.
The Nesuvus' officers were proud of
the way their boat behaved in the bonn
bardment of Santiago's defenses.
It's guns were effective i'm their
work." said Commander Pillsbury.
You can say the Nesuvius is a great
success" added another officer.
Twenty-siX shots in all were fired by
the dynamite cruiser at the batteries
commanding the entrance TO Santiago
harbor. They contained charges of
gun cotton varying from 100 To 200
pounds. As to the alarm the Nesuvius'
shots created and the damage they
caused. abundant evidence was oh
tanned from the captured officers and
men of Cervera's 5 fleet. Captain Concas
of the Spanish flagship Maria Teresa
told Commander Pillsbury that one OF
the Nesuvius' shells struck the bar
racks between the lighthouse and Nor
70 Castle and killed over 100 soldiers.

ANOTHER HORROR SHIP
Yucatan Left Santiago Without
Proper Supplies.
IT'S THE SAME OLD STORY
Two Hundred Sick Soldiers on Board
and Nothing to Give Them but
the Regular Army Ra-
tions-Seveu Dead.

New York. Aug. 27.-when the tran
sport Yucatan reached the pier to-day
and began discharging six companies
of the 7th United States infantry which
she had brought from Santiago, it was
learned seven men had died on the pas
sage, and three more died last night,
while the ship lay in the bay awaiting
it's turn to unload it's human cargo.
The Yucatan had 200 sick men on
board. 1t is alleged the ship left San
tiago without a sufficient quantity of
proper food or SUPPLIES for the sick and
she reached here without any food but
army rations. which the sick troopers
were unable to eat.
When General Wheeler learned this
state of affairs he sent on board proper
supplies. The sick men are still on
board the vessel waiting until there is
room for them in the hospitals.
