UP IN TENNESSEE
Benton McMilln Nominated by AccIamaton
Amid Enthusiasm.

Chattanooga, June 29.-The state demo-
cratic convention at its session this after
noon voted down the minority report of the
committee on platform which indorsed the
present board of railroad commissioners
and adopted the platform submitted by
the majority. The platform indorses the
Chicago platform and declares for the free
coinage of silver al a ratio of 16 to /.
The bond issue for raising war funds is
opposed, and declares that non-interest-
bearing treasury warrants would furnish
circulating medium that would accomplish
all that is required in prosecuting the war.
Section says: 1.-The United States is en-
gagged in a foreign war with Spain, inau-
gurated in the name of humanity and the
freedom of Cuba, and we indorse the action
of the senators and representatives in con-
gress in voting to prosecute this war for
these high purposes We recognize the
Monroe doctrine as cardinal tenet of the
democratic party and part of the public
policy of the national government and favor
it's strict observance
At the night session Hon. Benton McMil-
lin was nominated for governor byacclanla-
ton and enthusiasm. Mr.. McMillin re-
sponded by a rousing speech, in which he
promised success for the party in Novem-
her and, in case he was elected, thor
ouch business management of the states
affairs.

jerks Nominated

Altoona, Pa, June 2e.-The democratic
state convention today nominated full
ticket headed by George ]. jerks for gov
ernor.
The convention was dominated by the
friends of w. j. Bryan. Notwithstanding
this fact an effort to insert a plank in
dorsing the Chicago platform was de-
feated the controlling influence of the
convention preferring that the platform
should relate entirely to state issues.
When the vote on the silver question
was raised the Bryanites passed the word
around to support the motion. Nearly all
of that element voted "aye,' and the
Gufyites who also posed as silyerites,
were put in the strange position of voting
against their ideal. They stuck boldly to
their position, however. and prevented the
re-affirmation of the principals of the
Chicago convention. This they were bound
to do to carry their domination out to fight
the campaign solely on state issues. Aside
from n brief paragraph supporting the
government in its position with the war
with Spain the platform relates solely to
alleged republican misrule in the state and
the steps that should be taken to produce
n change.

OLD-TlME PLUCK
OF AMERICAN SEA DOG

Washington, June ga second case of
an attempt to transfer coal from an
American vessel to a Spanish merchant
man in Mexico has brought out the old
time pluck of an American sea captain.
The COTTON American schooner Clara A.
Phinnesy, of New Bedford. some days ago
was authorized to clear with 200 tons of
coal from Mobile to Vera Cruz on affi-
davis of reliable citizens of Mobile that
the coal was destined for railroad pur-
poses. On reaching Vera Cruz, Captain
Phinnesy was directed by l.. Jonblanc, his
consignee, to place his vessel alongside
the Spanish steamer Maria Herrra.
In the presence of a group of excited
Spanish sympathizers Captain Phinnesy
bluntly refused, declaring with emphasis
that no vessel in his charge should ever
lie alongside a ship bearing the flag of his
country's enemy, much less supply her
with even a pound of coal. The captain,
with a crowd at his heels, marched to
the American consulate and notified the
consul, and wrote at once to General
Spaulding, acting secretary. that he placed
himself under American protection. Ex-
ports of coal TO Mr. Jonblanc, of Vera
Cruz, will cease, and the department will
undertake to fix the responsibility and
punishment for the deceit.

Captain Rockwell stated today that suf-
ficient quantity or arms, ammunition and
other equipment has been shipped and was
now on the road to complete the Quitting
of the entire army, and that within less
than a week or two every regiment at the
park would be ready for active service.
Captain Zalinski, the distributing officer
of clothing and camp equippage, today is
sued 10000 rubber ponchcos and 40 900 shell
ter tents. This enormous work has been
completed with the greatest Possible expe-
dition and the park roads have been COW

ing supplies to the various regiments.
The quartermaster and ordnance officers
say there will be no delay in equipping the
regiments organized under the second call,

son which he will not soon forget
General August is one of the bitterest
fighters Spain possesses. He fight swlthout
reason or plan. but with such despera ton
and determination that he has won battles
when men of cooler calible have failed.
Up to the time that Weyler came into prom
inence he was Spain's most important gen.
eral-the one known widest in Europe He
has been steadily promoted and was sent
to the Philippines because of his Weyer-
like ferocity and his never-dying fighting
quality. He has fought in Spain's cause
for twenty years.
Madrid, seeing him hopelessly hemmed
in, has abandoned him T. lis fate, which
will doubtless be worse than that of
Montijo.

After telling how well his own crew acted
during the time they were under fire trying
to rescue the Winslow, Captain Newcomb
says:
"I take pleasure in testifying to the re-
markable bravery displayed by Lieutenant
Bernadou and the men of the Winslow,
and consider it one of the greatest priv
ileges of my life to have been an eye-wit-
ness of their conduct at a time when many
men would have felt justified in abandon
ing hope. With such officers and such
men, the American nation may well be
proud of its navy"

beef is to be furnished so that it will be
perfectly good and fit for use seventy-two
hours after delivery. 1t is impossible at
this time to say just how much beef will
be required but 1t is safe to assume that
before three months are up it will amount
to 100000 pounds a day.
The department has secured two vessels
which will be fitted up with refrlgerating
plants that will preserve the meat in
fresh and wholesome manner. The ships
are the Port Victor and the OLDHAM, both

The war with Spain overshadowed all
issues. Patriotic utterances and references
to a united country began with the first
speech. Hon. Il. 7. Brown, temporary
chairman, in his speech said:
THE world looks on in amazement Less
than thirty-five years ago one great sec
ton was arrayed against the other in in
ternecine war, the like of which was never
witnessed on the globe; and yet when the
first foreign foe would dare insult the ma
tional honor or lay his unholy hand upon
the national flag, these two, as if they
had never been apart, rushed together
with one accord, with one purpose, to see
which can do greatest honor to his eoun-
try's cause"
Hon. F. G.. Dubignon of Savannah, was
made permanent chairman and announced
Hon. Clark Howell Of Atlanta, as chair
man of the committee on resolutions.
The ticket was then put through with
rush and after a short recess Mr.. Howell
read the platform. 1t pledged the state of
Georgia to 1.-The flag of our country and
affirms that the cause for which the United
States is engaged in war with Spain is just
and righteous and on this subject says
further
eObIiteration of Sectionalsm.
"There is cause for universal congratula-
ton in the fafct that the patriotic upris-
ing of the people has obliterated sectional
ism from politics of our country and while
the people of the south unite with those
of the north in cordial enthusiasm over
the great and glorious achievement of Dew
ey in anhiliatins the Spanish Asiatic fleet,
it is gratifying to observe that those of the
north are no less cordial in bestowing their
praise and commentator upon the heroic
deeds of the two brave young southerners,
Bagley and HobSon, who with their intrepid
companions have won distinction which will
render their names immortal and add new
lustre to the American navy.
Now that the war is upon us, we urge
upon congress and upon the American peo-
pie to leave nc hing undone to push it to
a speedy and successful conclusion. The
volunteer forces should be increased to meet
the emergency and neither the army nor
the navy should lack for want of funds to
secure decisive results and force at the
earliest practicable moment the abandon
ment by Spain of it's possession in any part
of the western hemisphere"
The construction Of the Nicaragua canal
is favored.
