SAN Francisco, June 30. - Major
General Merritt yesterday announced
he would embark on the Newport this
morning. 1t was intimated his plan is
not to wait for transports, which can
only average ten knots an hour, but to
hurry into Honolulu, get on coal and
proceed on to Manila as soon as posi-
BILE. General Merritt will probably
reach Manila week in advance OF the
third expedition.
Six gatling guns mounted on car
riages have been fixed on the upper deck
of the Newport. The Astor battery
and the Third regiment marched on
board yesterday. The transport Val
em,ia left yesterday afternoon carrying
the Dakota regiments.
General Merritt has prepared proc
lamation which will be issued imme-
dlately after his arrival at Manila. He
expects to enter that city without seri-
ous resistance, but in case of necessity,
is prepared to use both the naval and
the military forces at his command to
take forcible possession of the place.

Te Pennsylvania Democratic State Con
yention Met at Altoona Today.
Gufey Apparently In Control.

ALTOONA, Pa, June 29.-The Demo.
cratic state convention met here today.
George A. jerks of Brookville will
be the nominee for governor unless
there is decided change Of sentiment
among the delegates. His managers
claim he will have 3l2 out Of the 1876
delegates and that under no conditions
will Judge James Gay Gordon of Phila-
delphia have more than l24. George
w. Bacon OF York has the call ON the
nomination for lieutenant governor and
Calvin M. Bower of Centre will be one
of the nominees for superior court
judge. The makeup Of the rest Of the
ticket is i'll doubt and depends entirely
ON what conditions the jerks people
can make with the friends of aspir-
ants for minor places.
The Bryan silver people control the
convention, and if they demand o
sweeping Endorsement of the Chicago
platform, this will be done, although
there is disposition ON all sides to
make the campaign strictly on state
issues, with an emphatic Endorsement
of President McKinley's war policy.
That Colonel Guffey controls the
situation is admitted by the managers
VI DOtu CuuuluulGs. ne nus only 70 say
the word and he will be nominated for
governor on the first ballot. He SAYS,
however, that he is satisfied with the
honor of serving as a member of the
national committee.
The jerks people have been claiming
that Gutfey is pledged to the support Of
their favorite. If their claims can be
relied upon then there is no question of
jerks nomination. Gordon's friends
are just as hopeful as ever, and if he is
defeated he will 60 down with flying
colors.
Judge Gordon spent yesterday at his
headquarters receiving delegates and
convention visitors and comforting with
