was consumed in discussion of fusion. Dur
ing this discussion Sidney M. Owen admin
istered to Ignatius Donnelly one of the most
scathing arraignments that was ever given
to a man I'M public life. He accused him
Of being traitor to the Peoples party for
money consideration and called him vii
lain, monster and vile thing. The Wild
est excitement prevailed.
Both the Democrats and Silver Repub-
licans Endorsed the Chicago platform and
the candidacy of w. ]. Bryan for the presi-
dency. The Silver Republicans also in
dorsed the initiative and referendum.
John Lynn, the Silver Republican, who
has been candidate for governor twice.,
was Endorsed for governor. The Populists
were allowed the offices of lieutenant gov
ernor, auditor. attorney general and clerk
of the supreme court. The Democrats were
given the nominations of the secretary of
state, state treasurer and one of the judges
of the supreme court. The joint conference
committee recommended that Judges Buck
and CAVITY, at present sitting, be named
by the three parties. John Lynn was NOM
mated by the three conventions for presi-
dent. J. M. Bowles was nominated for lieu
tenant governor by the Populists and in
dorsed by the others4 J.J. Heinrich for sec
rotary of state; Alexander McKinnon for
state treasurer; Justices Mitchell, Canty
and Buck for the supreme court bench.
At late hour the Populists had not filed
the remaining offices allotted them.

the western route IL fully 100 miles longer

the transports would have to fight the gulf
stream until they got clear around Cape
Antonio. On the eastern course. the ships
would have the full benefit Of the favor

that the ships were Westward bound grew
out of the circumstances that they headed

the fleet of transports to pick up the heav-
Ter vessels Of the convoy squadron, such
as the Indiana, which has not been able to

JAPAN's ATTITUDE


WASHINGTON, June 15-The Japanese
Minister, Mr. Toru Hoshi, talked in an In
formal way today on some Of the recent
phases of the war as they relate to the in
terests Of the United States and Japan.
Mr.. Hoshi expressed special regret at the
recent action Of Congress In placing duty
of 10 cents per pound on tea. The effect Of
the law, he says, was comparatively small
to other countries, as against Japan, where
trade ir cheap teas would be hurt by uni
form tax.
Mr.. Hoshi does not question the. right Of
the United States to make its own scheme
|of internal taxation, although he thinks q
large tea tax will not be expedient at this
time, when the United States is embarked
lin large enterprises in the Far East. The
United States and Japan are on very inti-
innate terms, and Mr.. Hoshi feels that it
would have been expedient for this govern
ment to cultivate the friendly relations,
both Of sentiment and Of commerce, with
Japan at the expense of the revenue to be
derived from taxing Japanese teas. While
mot SO intended, the people of Japan will
regard the duty as a discrimination on the
part Of the United States against Japan
as 1t will bear most heavily on IT..
Mr. Hoshi says that Japan has no long
ings toward the Philippines. On the con-
trary he says the acquisition of the big is
land OF Formosa, which China coded to
Japan after the late war, has given Japan
quite enough colonial territory TO develop.
Already 1t has cost the Japanese govern
ment enormous sums to lay cables connect
ing Japan with Formosa, to build roads and
provide adequate military and naval de-
lenses for this new colony. The returns

LANDING THE SUPPLIES
Daring Work Of the Expedition in
Aiming Cubans

OFF SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Saturday,
June II, PM, via Kingston, Jamaica, Sun
day, June Ia, Z p.m.-Since the establish
ment of the blockade several interesting ana
daring expeditions have been made into the
enemy's country to discover the actual con-
dition of affairs in Santiago de Cuba. 1t is
no easy matter to get near the city these
days About 5000 Spanish soldiers and 1000
home guard troops cover every roadway
about the place and General Pando. the
Spanish military commander, is very active.
although his operations are limited by the
mountains surrounding the place, which
are full Of insurgents
On Sunday, June 4, the converted light
house boat Suwanee, commanded by Lieut..
Commander Daniel Delhanty, arrived or
Santiago. She had on board about 10000
rounds Of ammunition, 500 rifles, 1000 car
bines. 1000 machetes and hundreds of pounds
of bread, bacon and other provisions. With
the aid of Cuban pilot picked UP by Com
rnodore Schley she landed this stuff in two
days, besides taking an active part in the
bombardment of the forts at Santiago. The
landing was effected about II miles to the
westward Of Santiago and in the presence of
500 insurgents. About 100 insurgents were
on guard in the mountains and passes. The
ammunition and food with the arms have
therefore put the insurgents in excellent
shape to prevent the Spanish from getting
provisions from the outside. 1t is believed
that the arning Of force Of insurgents has
assisted in cutting off one part of the Span
ish army from the other. Tuesday, June Z,
while working near Aserradero, IL miles
from Santiago, Lieut.. Commander Del
hanty saw two sloops trying to run away up
the River Aserradero. He fired at them and
they were run ashore and deserted. Each
of the sloops was provided with Spanish
flag and one of these had on board a hello
graph for signalling purposes. The flags
and the heliograph were taken as prizes of
war. One of the sloops was presented to
the Cubans and the other, which already
had few holes In it, was sunk by shots
from the Suwanee.

Secretary Grldler, in concluding his report,
devotes chapter to statement of the rea-
son why the United States should not be dis
suaded from full and adequate repre-
sentation at the Paris Exposition. He does
not say so, but nevertheless makes 1t ap-
parent from his report that he had refer
ence to the open sentiments express
ed in some quarters that the United
States refrain from making an exhibit be-
cause of the prevalent idea of undue French
sympathy with Spain.
On this point he says:
'It would be unfortunate for commercial
reasons were the United States to decline
to make an adequate representation.
Congress, in 1897. by accepting the invl-
tation of France to participate. assumed an
obligation to provide the requisite means,
but, aside from such obligation, there are
controlling reasons why the government
should be properly represented. The vast
business interests Of our country should be
displayed advantageously in competition
with those of all foreign lands In this our
merchants and manufacturers are concern
ed and in proportion as they will show the
people Of the earth as they will be congre-
gated at Paris how great our products, our
manufactures and our inventions, credit
will be reflected upon as a nation. The
growing export trade of the United States
would also gain by an exhibit, for If our
goods are already gaining Roadway in
Europe, a complete exhibit at Paris will
deeply impress the commercial affairs of
the world there to be asse mbled and re-
Gourd Immediately to the credit and lasting
benefit OF our foreign commerce."
Mr.. Gridler asserts that the coming expo
sition will surpass in beauty and grandeur
and similar enterprise in the past and says
the United States should be widely repre-
sented. He closes with a recommendation
that permanent commission be immediate
ly established.

FRANCE Is FRIENDLY
So Says Assistant Secretary o. State
Gridler From Paris

WASHINGTON, June 15.-Reference is
made in a report by Thomas w. Gridler.
third Assistant-Secretary of State. upon
the Paris Exposition to an inquiry by the
exposition authorities as to whether the
Americans could furnish the electrical pow
err to light the whole exposition and run
all the machinery. This would require 3d.
900 horse power, he said.
Mr.. Grldler took the matter under adj
visement with a view to securing the opln-
ion of electrical experts In the United
States.
Mr.. Gridler says there are two salient fea,
lures in the general scheme of the exposl-
ton. The first is its admirable situation in
the center Of Paris; the next the embellish-
ment of that part Of the Seine connecting
the two extermities of the exposition, which,
will recall to the visitors mind a modern
