has increased to degree never before
known. and the people are looking with
confidence for greater things to come
The magnificent achievements of our
army and navy in the war with Spain
for the liberation of the doWntrodden
and oppressed people of Cuba from the
dominion of Castilian despotism, ac-
complished under the master guidance
of a Republican administration are nee
essarily subjects for highest encomium
by convention of Ohio Republicans.
To the same master guidance, con-
troIled by the great principles that have
shared the high destiny of the Republi-
can party from Lincoln to Mckinley
the people can safely commit the solu-
tion of the mOmentOus problems of the
future of Cuba, Porto Rico and the
Philippines. Their wise solution will
vastly increase our foreign trade, spread
American civilization abroad and add to
the honor and power and glory of this
great nation.
We commend the president for the
judicious notifications of the civil SER
vice rules, recently promulgated.
For the national defense, for the re-
enforcement of the navy, for the en-
largement of our foreign markets, for
the employment of American working
men in the mines, forests, farms mills
factories and ship yards; we demand
the immediate enactment of legislation
similar to that favorably reported to
each branch of the F'ifty-fi fifth congress
a its last session, so that American
built. American owned and American
manned ships may regain the carrying
of our foreign commerce.
We commend the action of the 73rd
general assembly of Ohio in passing the
stringent law now on our statute books
prohibiting the organization of trusts
and we denOunce such unlawful COM
binations as inimical to the interests
of the people. We congratulate the peo-
pie of the state on the fact that a Re-
publican legislature enacted this law
and we demand it's rigid enforcement
We pledge our party to such further
legislation as experience may determine
necessary to prevent the formation and
opera tion of such iniquitOus and danger

tions, protesting against lynching and

MARCHAND HAS HIS WAY.
His Senegal Sharpshooters Will Visit
Paris

copyright, 1899, by Associated Press. ]
Paris, June 2--Marchand is here.
There is great enthusiasm, but no noisy
demonstrations. A few flags have been
unfurIed in his honor. Everyone he
sees is favorably impressed by him.
He arrived in Paris at 10 o'clock yes
terday morning and has been on the
move ever since. He attended the state
luncheon at the ministry of marine
where he received a gold medal and a
sword of honor. The Nile was prom
inentiy symbolized. too, on the sword
handle, by a crocodile and palm tree.
The company at luncheon was chiefly
official. Many admirals, generals and
other naval and military commanders
attended. Marchand, as the chief guest.
took Madame LOckroy, the wife of the
marine minister, into the banaueting
room. The gracious and still most at
tractiVe daughter-in-law of Victor
Hugo wore a heiiOtrope satin gown, shot
with green. Her daughter, now Madame
Hugo -Charicot, was in a light blue
flowered foulard, with a. corsage of
Venice guipure. At luncheon Marchand
pleaded with Madame Lockroy for his
Senegal sharpshooters to have an op-
portunity to visit Paris. He told her
that the prospect was their great in
centive to exertion in the march across
Africa. Whenever their courage flag
ged. Marchand cried to them:
Boys, another strong effort to make
sure of seeing Paris
This electrified them. They are now
LOckroy that he strongly felt his prom
ise should be kept and that their deep
disappointment prevented his enjoying
himself.
Madame Lockroy repeated what he
said, talking across the table to her
husband. and all the company sympa-
thized with the explorer.
1t is now settled that his brave blacks
are to come to Paris.
The set-Out of the table at luncheon
was original, charming and poetic. The
floral decorations were entirely of Wild
howers-blue, red and white
Madame LockrOy thought Marchand
and his companions would prefer after
their long sojourn in Africa the fora
of the French woods and fields to any
other. Did they not also better symbol
ize democratic army than other flow
ers? Another consideration was that
they are less staring. Wild oats and
grasses lent grace to the floral har-
mony.
Marchand looks a hero after Victor
Hugos heart. He is silent, thought
full, modest without bashfulness. He
might also be an American, so strong
an impression does he give of unaf fleet
ed stoicism and that dauntless firmness
His face is deeply lined and careworn;
but the sweetness of his countenance is
indescriba BILE. He seems gentleness it
self when the lines relax into a smile.

THE PLATFORM.
Unstinted Praise Dealt Out to Presi-
dent Mckinley

The Auditorium, Columbus. o., June
2--The following is the platform adopt
ed by the Ohio Republican convention
today:
The Republican party of Ohio reaf-
firms the principles declared by the St
Louis platform.
We earnestly indorse the great admin
istration of William Mckinley. 1t is
distinguished to a remarkable degree
in the history of national administra-
tions. Under the last Democratic ad-
ministration and as a result of the
Democratic principles and policy. cur
industries were destroyed, capital and
labor were unemployed. the poor Suf-
fered as never before in our history,
agricultural products could not be sold
because consumers could not earn
money with which to buy. and every
branch of trade felt the blighting in
fuence of the Democratic tariff reform
hard times: the treasury of the United
States was depleted and the gold re-
serve disappeared. The government
borrowed money to pay current ex-
penses. increasing the public debt in
times of peace by hundreds of millions
of dollars. The Democratic party pro-
posed to the people as remedy for all
these Democratic ills deprecated and
dishonest currency, which intensified
During all that period of depression
and distress the Republican party stood
fast for the principles and policies un-
der which American industries had been
built up and ffourished beyond exam
ple-the principles and the policies un-
der which the people had DroSpered
and the nation had grown great for
generation; stood fast for a sound and
honest currency and in 1896 elected to
the presidency William Mckinley, the
best exponent of ReDublicanism and
true American ideas and policies, the
friend of every American industry and
the wise and patriotic defender and ad-
Vocate of honest money,

ministration public credit has been re-
stored, the prosperity of the people has

One Million Dollars in Yellow
Money
Will Go to Europe on Board
the Lucania.
CREATES A SURPRISE.
Wall Street Doesn't Know
What to Make of 1t.
Shipped blythe Bank That Paid
the Spanish Indemnity.

New York, June 2.-The Journal says:
''The announcement that the National
City bank would ship 81 900, 900 in gold
to Europe on the steamshipLucania
was considerable of a surprise in Wan
street
Although sterling exchange has
ruled rather high it has been maintain
ed by bankers that there was little
likelihood of any gold exports at the
present time That the shipment should
be made by the National City bank,
which engineered the payment of the
Spanish indemnity of $40, ,OO0, 600 with
out sending gold abroad up to the pres
ent time, kills to some extent the force
of any arguments which may be used
upon the shipment.
Another view of the case taken by
conservative men is that the United
annually and now has on hand more Of
the precious metal than any other
country and can therefore easily afford
to send several millions to Europe.
Besides the demand for exchange to
offset the payment of the Spanish in
demnity there has been a fair increase
in the imports of finished goods from
Europe which must be paid for. This
season of the year is Furthermore the
period when large sums are taken
abroad by tourists.
The exports of food products also
decline in the spring, but this year are
very largely offset by exports of Amer
ican manufactured goods. Europe has
been buying back large quantities of
our stocks which were sold here some
months ago, but has been steadily sell

steamer Lafayette, Captain De Chaplen,
from ST. Nazaire, France. May 9, for
Colon, by way of F't. De France, Mar

here today. The correspondent of the

Trinidad, St. Lucia and Ft De France,
Where she will connect, in teh ordinary

1t is very improbable that the French
government. in taking Dreyfus back for
a new trial, would send him so far
west as Colon, although a report to
this effect was circulated here.
According to dispatch to the AS
sociated Press from Paris on May II.
the Petit Bleu that day announced that
ten members of the Republican guard
and four gen d'armes had left st.
Nazaire on the previous Tuesday on
board the Lafayette to form an escort
to bring Dreyfus back to France. and
that his return might be expected by
the end of June.

Chicago, June 2-Reginald Heintz, an
English tourist, threw himself into the
lake last night from the private yacht
Peri. in which with three Chicago
friends he was sailing near the four
mile crib. Despite immediate and
strenuous efforts by his companions to
rescue him he was drowned and his
body is in the deep water near the crib
1t was the second attempt at suicide
Heintz had made within a few hours.
While at the office of a physician in the
afternoon he tried to cut his throat
with a surgical instrument and was
prevented only after a struggle.
F. H. Skinner, a dentist, one of the
men in the boat with Heintz, told the
police that the Englishman was only n
casual acquaintance and that they
were not even aware of his address,
Mr.. Skinner further told the police that
Heintz lived on small remittances that
were sent to him from England; that
he drank a good deal and that ne

hard to prevent. Her life was saved,
and she was sent to an asylum. from

Her hallucination was that she and
her family were sure to end in the poor
house. though her husband is quite well
fixed as to property. There is no ques-
