For Strong Police Force.
Boston, Sept. 22.--The riotous scenes
and the bitter fights between the two
factions Of the Democratic party Of
this state which characterized the all
night session In Music Hall here in
1895 and that at Worcester the follow
Ing year were renewed with even
greater bitterness at the annual con-
vention of the state Democracy In
Mechanics Hall yesterday. There was
hardly a moment, after the speeches Of
the temporary and permanent presid-
Ing ofacers were concluded when there
was quiet and harmony IN aAy degree.
At times the entire delegation was
upon Its feet. the members standing
On chairs and tables. shouting in the
heat of passion. some denunciatory re-
marks at the chairman or the person
who was endeavoring to speak upon
the platform.
At this time it seemed as though
even the fcese Of 100 policemen in the
hall would be Of no avail, 80 impas-
stoned were those upon the floor, and
the climax came when, at the request
Of the chairman, the captain Of police
appeared upon the platform and placed
his hand upon Congressman John e.
Fitzgerald, in readiness to forcibly re-
move him from the platform had he
not subsidized.
The cause of the tumult was the
question before the body accepting the
action Of the state committee In pre-
senting list OF delegates to the ma
tional convention. The committee won.
The state ticket follows: For gov
ernor. Robert Treat Paine. Jr., Of

members of the bar in this city, a
father cannot legally publish in the

The one particular characteristic which brought Chauncey NJ Depew, New York's recently elected senator, into prominence, is rather uncertain to name, though per haps as good a guess as any that it is his clever after-dinner speaking ability. So adept Is he in this art that a certain firm dealing in smokers articles has for trade mark a picture of the brilliant statesman all in evening dress, holding the choicest stock in his hand.
 Mir. Depew has also gained an endless amount of fame through his management of the railroad interests of the Vanderbilt family, with whom he has been connected through ties of personal friendship as well as business for many years. During the time of the unpleaantness between Corne- Illus Vanderbilt, Sr, and his son, two years ago, gossppers said that MT. Depew had been engaged to argue marriage failure to the young man, but If such were the case his efforts were fruitless, for Cornelius, Jr., married the woman of his choice at the sac- rifice of being cut off from the family with a paltry yearly income of $10O,0O0.
 MT. Depew is nearly sixty-five years of age. having been born on April 23, 1884. Early in life he took up the study of law and made such an excellent success of 1t that he soon became independently wealthy. Later he turned to politics, and has been an antive figure therein for many years,

TO LIVE W I'll THlIx FATHER

From the New York Herald
 A definite arrangement has been made by Mir Henry Sloane and his wife to quietly settle their differences upon terms which are not made public It is known, however, that under this agreement Mrs. Sloane two daughters-Jessie, about 16 years old, and Emily, 10 years old--are to live with MT. Sloane, who will care for their education and social future. Thursday MT. Sloane left the Buckingham hotel, where he had been staying, and went to the home of his sis ter, Mrs. Edmund Coffin, removing all his personal effects thither. For some time past the difficulties between MT. and Mrs. Henry T. Sloane have engrossed the atten- ton of New York society, in which the Soanes have been conspicuous for the last fifteen years. Mrs. Sloane was before her marriage a great Brooklyn belle. She was Miss Jessie Robbins, q daughter of the late Daniel Robbins, who was a member of the New York mercantile house of Mckfsson & Robbins. Mrs. Sloane was considered one of the most beautiful women at Mrs Brad- ley-Martin's famous fancy dress ball two winters ago. Her beauty and other attrac- tions have always made her conspicuous at the social functions she has given and at tended.

In fact, Senator Depew is so popular in this particular field that the presidential bee has often buzzed in his bonnet with sufii- cient vigor to cause his opponents much anxiety.
 At sixty-five MT. Depew is as young in spirit and physique many men at forty; and while society in the capital will vel come him with outstretched arms, Gotham wi.4 miss him keenly. An accomplished man of the world, he has always fulfilled with greatest correctness the social duties brought upon him by his splendid environ ments. Of incomparable affability and gen. tleness he is endowed with uncommon en- ergy and force of character. Tall of form his fine head covered by almost perfectly white hair, he is the model of senator; and added to these are refinement, courtesy, and generosity.
 MT. Depew is a man of sure judgment, full of good sense and lucidity of spirit He expresses his opinions freely and fear lessly, and admits by principle that every opinion is worth being listened to. The low Hest have found in him a sympathetic friend and adviser.
 Four years ago he had the misfortune to lose his wife, to whom he was exceedingly devoted, and since that time his home life has been rather saddened, except during the time that his two nieces have broken off their social obligations to spend a few months with him.
