.SkGalyesten, Aug. s.--The following is sse platform which was submitted to Vine convention.
 Resolved, by the Democrats of Texas in convention assembled, that we indorse in every particular the platform adopted by the national democratic convention at Chicago in 1896, but we especially commend and approve the declaration in favor of an income lax; against the power of banks to issue money; for tariff for revenue that will operate with out discrimation against classes or sec tions, and for the free and unlimited coinage of gold and silver at the ratio of 16 to ] with full legal tender qualities and without reference to the action of other governments
 2. We denounce the Republican party for the passage of the Dingley bill, which places the burden of tariff taxa tion upon those least able to bear it and which has resulted in a great deficit of revenue.
 3. We declare that the present war ex- citement cannot and shall not obscure the money question upon which the fight in 1900 will be chiefly made, and the interest now being taken in the D. GOO, coo people of Cuba and Porto Rico must not detract from the vital inter- ests of 70, GOO, GOO of our own people.
 A. That while we recognize the neces- sity of war tax, we denounce the rev. enue bill passed by the Republican party for tine gross inequalities therein, both in the tax imposed and the exemptions made.
 5. That we. congratulate Che country upon the skln ana lntrepedlty Of Amer1. can soldiers and sailors in the present war, which we declare to have been forced upon us by the conduct of Spain,
 S. The national Democratic nqrtv will give the pl sident or the United States its full support in all measures to con duct this war to an early and successful end
 7. That we favor the generous deyei opment of the American navy to what ever extent it may be necessary to pro tect our commerce on every sea and oul citizens in every land.
 8. That we favor the construction anC control of the Nicaragua canal by th' United States.
 9. That we favor the carrying out O letter and spirit of the resolutions unde' which we intervened ill Cuba and we in sist that the Cubans shall be permitted to establish an indedendent government of their owp. But in the event that th' people of that island shall hereafter de sire to be annexed to this country ant the terms of annexation can be satisac torily arranged between the two govern ments, we will welcome Cuba as par of the territory of the United States.
 10. We favor the acquisition of Port Rico and all other Spanish possession in the western hemisphere.
 II. That we reafirm our faith in tn Monroe doctrine and oppose the annexa ton or continued retention, of the Phil

NO WRIT FOR MALIDAK.
Newark's Murder Case Before
Chancellor MeGill This
Morning.

ChancelIortsMcGi this morning refused
to grant a writ of error In the case u
Andreas Malinak, the Newark murderer,
condemned 70 be hanged on January q
next in Essex County Jail. His Homo
agreed TO give a certificate of refusal,
which the lawyers for the doomed man
will file IN the Court of Errors and APP
peals, and which will act as a stay of
execution.
The application for the writ of error
was made to the Chancellor late on Satur-
day afternoon and a long argument en-
sued between. Lawyer Adams, who repre-
sented Malinak, and Prosecutor of the
Pleas L. Nathan Crane, who opposed the
motion. 1t being so late when the law
yers had finished that the Chancellor adj
journed the matter until this morning.
when he gave his decision in his library.
Lawyer Adamss application was based
upon what he termed errors in the charge
of Justice Depue and to clinical questions
pertaining to the evidence of the experts
called to prove the insanity of the MUIR
derer. The Prosecutor, Mr.. Adams said,
asked hypothetical questions of the ex-
pefts, Drs. buckley and Evans. which
in his opinion, did not cover all the points
raised In the evidence as proof of Ma
linakis unsound mind.
Why did you not bring out these facts
yourself in examination asked the
Chancellor.
1T is not for me, your honor. 1 think,
to prove the States case
The Prosecutor in reply aid that the
questions he put to the experts were
proper. because the doctors were aware
of all the points involved when they swore
as to Malinak's condition. The Chan
cellor, when the argument was concluded,
said
II have doubts on the point raised by
Mr.. Adams Jas to the experts, but l have
decided not to allow the writ. l do not
think thar there is enough to send the
writ to the Supreme Court or Court of
Errors and Appeals, but | dom want to
say that there is nothing in the points
raised and 1 will give a certificate of dis
missal. / will sit in the Court of Errors
and | want to be free to go along with

The Chancellor's certificate will be filed
today in the Court of Errors and this
will temporarily stop the execution.

WE are panied to read the articles IN
the morning PAPER about the dry sunday
in Passaic county. Dur pain is not caus-
ed by the dryness. 1t arises from the
natural inference hat other Sundays
have not been dry in the home county OF
the good Mr.. Hobart the good Mr.. Griggs
and the good Mr.. Gledhill.
II the Sundays have not been dry, the
law must have been violated. even b
itually violated. And if the law has
been habituaily violated in Passaic, why
is it not to be investigated as well as
the wicked Hudson? Can it be that there
is favoritism in mud-slinging?
Apropos of Sunday liquor in Passaic,
newspaper readers will remember that
Dean McNulty, the Catholic Parkfmrst,"
as he has been called. of Paterson, has
had a pleasant habit for years of going
around among the liquor saloons on Sun
day morning and ordering his parishion-
ers out of them. occasionally causing the
arrest of a proprietor by way of variety.
1t is amusing to see that the saloons
are not the only places of business which
open in the good city, either. 1t seems
Sunday is very little more sacred than
any other day, in the Republican strong
hold, when there is a dollar to be made.
