ton at length. Committees were ap-
pointed and recess until $3.50 o'clock
was taken.
When the convention reassembled
the committee on permanent organi-
Zation reported the permanent officers
of the convention, including Senator
Horace White, of Syracuse, for chair

senator White on taking the chair adj
dressed the convention. His mention
of Gov. Blacks name was the occasion
of laundering applause, which was
followed by three cheers. The speaker
was interrupted for fully two min
utes.
The various war heroes came in for
their share of the appreciation of the
convention when reference was made
to them. A mention of the charge of
the Rough Riders at San Juan hill
brought the convention to its feet
with a great outburst of demonstra-
tive expression. The delegates stood
in their places and cheered. Senator
Platt joined the other delegates. The
convention decided to proceed with
nominations and j. r. Cady, of Hud-
son, who nominated Gov. Black two
years ago, took the platform to per-
form again the same service. Mr..
Cady was frequently interrupted with
applause,
Chauncey NJ. Depew then took the
platform to nominate Theodore Roose-
welt. For some minutes Mr.. Depew
could not begin his speech for the APP
plause that ensued. Those portions
of his speech relating to President
Mckinley were received with much
applause and there was vigorous re-
ception of the tribute to Gov. Black.
When Mr.. Depew told of the famous
charge of the Rough Riders and men
toned Roosevelt the audience went
almost crazy. When Mr. Depew had
reached the point in his speech where
he alluded to the non-effect of Mauser
bullets two or three men rushed down
the aisle bearing big portrait of Mr..
Roosevelt in Rough Rider uniform.
There was three minutes interrupt
ticn and the picture was taken TO the
stage and set up. Mr.. Depew finished
amid applause that was almost pan
demonium. Then Charles T. Saxton.
of Wayne, seconded the nomination
of Gov. Black. Assemblyman Wallace,
of Queens. seconded the nomination
of Roosevelt.
Elihu Root was called to the plat
form by the chairman and made
statement as to the eligibility of Mr..
Roosevelt to hold office. He said Mr..
Roosevelt had always voted in Oyster
Bay and had merely removed personal
property to Washington. He had al
ways paid taxes in Oyster Bay and
had merely refused to pay taxes on
property he was using in Washington,
and by his affidavit he merely said he
was not resident of New York.
Secretary of State Palmer moved
roll call and the motion was adopted.
Before it got through the New York
delegation it was evident that Roose-
velt had walkover. The total vote
was announced as follows: Roose-
velf 1853, Black 21S.
Then the audience and delegates
rose and cheered. Judge Cady moved
the unanimous nomination, While

PRACTICAL KINDNESS.
One Hundred Thousand Grateful SOL
diers.

These war times have tried mems souls
in many unexpected ways, but like a shaft
of sunshine and good cheer out of the cloud
of privation and endurance has been the
work that The American Tobacco Co. has
done among the U. S. Soldiers and Sailors
ever since the war began-for when they
discovered that the camps and hospitals
were not supplied with tobacco they de-
cided to provide them, free of cost, with
enough for every man, and have already
given outright to our Soldiers and Sailors
over one hundred thousand pounds of BAT
Ak Plug" and Dukes Mixture" Smoking
Tobacco, and have bought and distributed
fifty thousand briar wood pipes, at total
cost of between fifty and sixty thousand dol
lars.
This work has been done quietly and
thoroughly, by establishing headquarters
in each camp, so that every camp and every
hospital of the United States Army has
been supplied with enough tobacco for
every man and the sailors on thirty
United States Ships in Cuban waters have
shared with the soldiers this most welcome
of all "rations."
Perhaps it will be only fair to remember
when we hear. the remark again that
Corporations have no souls" that there
is one American corporation whose soul
has been tried and has not been found
wanting in practical kindness"

THE PEACE TERMS.
Spanish Commissioners to Contend
for Retention of Philippines and
Payment of Cuban Debt.

Madrid, Sept. 27.--The cabinet Mon
day evening had under discussion Capt.
Gen. Blanco's dispatch concerning the
American claims in connection with the
evacuation of Cuba. Duke Almodovar
de Rio, minister of foreign affairs,
states that the Spanish peace commits
sioners have been instructed to con-
tend strongly for the integrity of Span
ish sovereignty in the Philippines, on
the ground that the protocol between
Spain and the United States was signed
before Manila capitulated; and also to
make firm stand regarding the Cuban
debt and the Philippine loan of 1896, if
Luzon is ceded to America. Should the
United States prove less eXacting than
is expected, the commissioners have
power to make all possible concessions,
political and commercial, compatible
with the retention of Spanish sover-
eign in the Philippines; but in the event
of losing a portion of the islands, they
are instructed to resist to the utmost
any attempt of the United States to
claim the right ofpreference over other
powers should Spain desire TO sell or
cede the remainder of the islands. 1t is
understood, however, that all instruc-
tions are only ad referendum. Most of
the commissioners and attaches speak
English.
