It is expected that $50 women will ar
rive in the city this morning from the
Denver convention and at the depot they
will be met by delegation Of ladies from
this city and entertained.
An effort was made yesterday TO have
the railroads contribute TO giving the
ladies free excursion to Saltair and re-
turn. The arrangements did not see mt
to take the matter that way, however.
1ney claim they have made a cheap rate
here and that is all that could be asked.
All entertainment in Denver was furn-
ished by the city and the ladies were
entertained right royalty. They were
given 50 ride around the Loop and it
would be indeed strange if this city could
not give them a rs cent ride to one of the
resorts. The cost would be but trifiing.
and inasmuch as neither resort is making
a cent with the low rates now in effect
IL would be asking too much to compel
them to stand this burden.
One passenger man was criticised yes
terday by a lady for bringing more than
81 lauies to this city The woman who
did the criticising said they were pre-
pared TO take care of 50. but why more
should have been brought was a mystery.
This made him warm and he plainly
told the good woman that if this city
could not take care of a small party like
that. they had better go out of business
and quit asking any one to come here for
sessions.

The convention was dominated by
the friends of William J. Bryan, led by
Colonel James NJ. Guffey of Pittsburg.
Notwithstanding this fact, an effort
to insert a plank reaffirming the Chi
cago platform was defeated, the con-
trolling influence in the convention
preferring that the platform should re-
late entirely to state issues.
Although his defeat for the guberna-
torial nomination was certain, Judge
Gordon of Philadelphia remained in the
fight to the finish. When the vote on
the adoption of the silver plank was
taken, the Gordon leaders passed the
word around TO support the motion.

garded as the Bryanites of the party.

voting against their leader. They
stuck boldly to their position, however,
and prevented the reaff1rmation of the
principles of the Chicago convention
This they were bound to do to carry out
their determination to fight the cam
paign solely on state issues. Aside
from a brief paragraph supporting the
government in it's position in the war
with Spain, the platform relates entirely
to alleged Republican misrule in the
state, and the steps that should be
taken to produce a change.
The convention lasted from noon I'M

eddy lively gathering. AT several stages

bulletin, giving a report from Admiral
Sampson under date Of June % off
Santiago: On the 18th General Garcia
and his staff visited the flagship, hav-
ing arrived that morning at General
Rabi's camp AT Acerraderos. My i'm
pressions of General Garcia are of the
most pleasant character. lie is a large
handsome man of most frank and en-
gaging manners, and of most soldierly
appearance. The fleet has, with my di-
rection, furnished arms, clothing and
food to the Cuban forces, both east and
west of Santiago. Much has been done
in this direction at Guantanamo by
Commander McCalla, who has been
most energetic in rendering them all
assistance possible. Great activity
and courage has been shown by the
Cubans at Guantanamo, and CoTnman-
der McCalla is most eulogistic in refer
ence to their conduct. There are about
10000 Cuban forces in this immediate
vicinity"
