BOUND TO BE A SPLIT.
New York Democrats Can't Get To-
gether Under ANY Circumstances.

New York, Sept. lit is regarded as
settled by the Chicago platform Demo-
Gratis, who held a meeting last night in
the Union Square hotel that they will
place in nomination a full state ticket
at their convention at Syracuse the day
before the regular Democratic state
convention. Upward of 35 leaders,
representing the ultra Silver Democrats
of Greater New York attended the con-
ference. Mr.. Mcdonald and the other
speakers expressed the belief that the
regular Democratic convention would
not agree to these demands and the
nomination of a separate state ticket
with its candidates running on the Chi
cago platform was the only outcome to
be expected The two propositions set
forth by the Silver Democrats are as
follows: If the regulars ignore the
Chicago platform and nominate only
acknowledged supporters of Bryan for
state officers, a separate ticket would
be necessary. If the regulars reaffirm
the Chicago platform and nominate on
the state ticket any Democrat who was
not regular in 1896. a separate ticket
still would be necessary.

WOUNDED BY BUTTON.
Its Sharp Edge Cuts the Artery in a
Mans Knee.

Kansas City, Sept. 1.-THE sharp
edge of a bone collar button cut an ar
terry in the leg of man at Fairnount
park last night and he would have bIed
10 death if Surgeon HARRISON of the
Fifth regiment had not been close by to
take up the artery and dress the wound
The mans collar button had worked
loose from his shirt band and slipped
down inside his clothing to a point be
low his knee He was climbing up the
grand stand at the race track and he
put his knee upon the railing to vault
over The collar button, at the moment
he put his weight upon his knee, was
directly against one of the branches of
the tibial artery, and the sharp edge
cut into his flesh like knife would, and
severed the artery. He knew enough
to tie his handkerchief tightly around
his leg above the knee and made his
way to the tent of the regimental sur
geOn. He was weak from loss of blood
when he got there. The surgeon had to
enlarge the wound to get the ends of
the artery together.

MAY JOIN FIREMEN.
Rumor Concerning Future Action of
Locomot Engineers.

Peoria, Ill. Sept. 1.-THE name of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
may be changed to Engine Men, so as
to admit the engineers also to member
ship in the new union of railroad men.
The annual convention of the brother
hood is now in session at Toronto, and
this question will come up. A brother
hood official today said that the consti-
tuition would be so changed whereby
locomotive engineers would be admitted
to membership. If such action is taken,
it will doubtless lead to a final disrup-
ton of the Brotherhood of Engineers,
which now exists. This brotherhood,
however, is not in the international fed
Grafton. When the interna tional feder-
alton was formed a year ago only four
of the five great brotherhoods went into
it. They are the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen, the Brotherhood of
Railway Trainmen, the Order of Rail-
way Telegraphers and the Order of
Railway Conductors. The question was
brought before the convention of engi-
neers at st. Louis, but as the eastern
members were strongly opposed to fed
Grafton with the other railroad orders,
they defeated the proposition. The
southern and western members are at
the head of the present scheme to af-
hliate with the firemen.

GOING TO MANILA.
Secretary Long Says the Oregon and
Iowa Will Go There.

New York, Sept Twin VIM; R. Day
and VIM P. Frye, members of the peace
commission. who arrived from Washing
ton last night, were Secretaries Long and
Bliss and Attorney General Kellogg. Sec
rotary Long, accompanied by Captain
Glover of the L. s. S. Bancroft, went to
the Manhattan hotel He said: There
is no significance in my visit to this city
| am simply on my way to bingham
Mass, to attend to some private mat
ters.''
When asked the ultimate destination of
the Oregon and Iowa, he said: Those
warships have been ordered to Honolulu
viii they go from there to .Manila?''
The secretary reflected a moment and
said: Yes, they may go to Manila. You
see, we robbed the Pacific squadron of
two vessels, and it is no more than lust
that We return them again after we have
gotten through with them.''
In talking on the subject of new vessels
he said: Congress at its next session
may see the ACCESSIBILITY of an increase in
the number of war vessels. The three
that have been awarded to Cramps, the
Norfolk yard and the Union Iron Works
of San FRANCISCO will be formidable yes
sells. They will have increased coal ca
pacity, increased speed and increased ton
mage. This has been one of the results of
the observations from the war;

A LETTER FROM HOME
Does the Boys in Cuba More Good
Than Medicine.

Santiago, Sept. Ito nine out of
every ten sick soldiers at Santiago a
letter from home would be better than
medicine. United States mail boxes are
being upt on the streets and the office
facilities are ample. All that is needed
is a regular mail service.
Yesterday so Cubans who had been
employed about the docks were placed
on easier work by Lieut.. Hanne. To
his surprise they went on strike, abso-
lutely refusing to work at all. OF course
they were discharged. They have been
paid in rations and the opportunity to
steal at the docks was too attractive
to be resisted. The products of their
thieving they would sell to the small
dealers, thus adding to the legitimate
results of labor. Being well fed seems
to render the ordinary Cuban indis-
posed to work.

She gained strength daily.
Every one noticed the changes

taken them she was strong enough to
leave her bed, and IN less than six months

To further verify this statement Mr..
Troct made affidavit to its truthfalness
before Robert E. FIu11, IT,, Notary Peblic.
The last decade of the nineteenth cen
tt1ry has been marked by some OF the
most important discoveries IN the history
of the world. None have done more to
benefit mankind than DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. Some of the cures
effected by this wonderful remedy almost
eoca1 the miracles Of old. Diseases long
supposed incurab1e have succumbed to
their potency. The Para1yzed have
walked; the weak and ailing have
stepped from their beds well and strong.
TIE evidence IS irrefutab1e. The fact
stands supreme that DR.. Williams Pink
Pills are the greatest blessing ever bestowed
on suffering humanity.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold BY
druggists throughout the land.
