PENSsYLvANIANs LAND.
Greeted by the People of san Pran-
cisco and Reviewed by Shafter.


San Francisco Aug. 3.-The Pennsyl-
vania regiment landed from the Sena-
tor and marched to the Presidio pend
ing muster cut. The reception accorded
them was fully as enthusiastic as that
given the other troops which preceded
them. People lined the streets and the
soldiers Were greeted with cheers, min
gled with steam whistles, cannon and
fireworks. They were escorted by the
Third Artillery, from the Presidio, and
the Nebraska regiment. They are a
sturdy lot and presented an even bet
ter appearance than the Nebraskans.
This is attributed to recuperation on the
voyage home and the fact that they
were not on the firing line for some time
before leaving. The parade was re-
viewed by Shafter.
The docking of the transport Senator
yesterday was unaccompanied by the
blowing of steam sirens and the ring
ing of bells. An impressive silence pre-
vailed throughout the. operation, in
spite of the fact that thousands of peo-
pie thronged the docks to witness the
landing of the vessel which had borne
the Tenth Pennsylvania regiment from
the Philippines to friendly shore.
There was no cheering as the vessel
made fast to the government dock. The
death of Col. Hawkins seemed to have
impressed every one in an unusual
manner, and along the water front flags
hung at half mast out Of respect to the
hero of two wars.
Later in the day a detachment of SOL
diers carried the casket containing the
remains from the transport to a waiting
hearse. Heads were barred, and not
few of the Pennsylvania boys shed tears
as the coffin was silently placed In the
hearse to be taken to local undertake
er's establishment. a detachment of
eleven men and an officer escorted the
hearse through the streets. There was
no other military demonstration, but a
guard will watch constantly beside the
casket, and when the remains are
placed on board the cars for the east
guard will be detailed to accompany 1t.
Today the Pennsylvania boys We're
given a chance to stretch their legs in
the city. 1t was decided that the men
should march to the barracks at the
Preside today under the escort of the
returned Oregon, Utah and Nebraska
troops.

MARYLAND DEMOCRATS.
Platform Decides Against Censorship
and a Large Standing Army.

Platform Decides Against Censorship
and a Large Standing Army.
Baltimore. Nd, Aug. 3.-The demo-
cratic state convention nominated the
following ticket: For governor, John
Walter Smith; encouragement. Isidor
Raynor; controller, Joshua Herrin. The
convention was unusually harmonious,
and all nominations were made by ac-
clamation.
I'VE insist that in a time of war, as
we'll as peace. the freedom of the press
shall be preserved; that the right of
the people to criticise freely the policy
and conduct of the administration shall
be demanded at all hazards.
No deadlier blow can be dealt to
American liberty than oppression, by
the abuse Of the executive power. of the
free utterance by American freemen of
their sentiments upon matters of public
concern affecting the welfare of the
people and we denounce as dangerous
and indefensible all efforts to interfere
with or abridge this sacred right.
We declare our unalterable opposi-
ton to the creation and maintenance
of large standing army in time of
peace; we insist upon the supremacy of
| sAAs- ~ ~ oNCi Iiic
and demand the strictest economy in
the collection and disbursement of the
public revenues.
We believe in the time honored doc
trine, so earnestly impressed upon US
by the Fathers of the Republic of
peace. commerce and honest friendship
with all nations and entangling alli-
ances with none.
=.
We view with alarm the multtplica-
tion oyer the land of such gigantic, in
dustrial and commercial trusts, the out
growth of republican legislation, as
stifle competition. threaten, popular
government, increase the cost of living
and curtail the individpal rights of the
people; we. favor vigorous measures by
the states and by congress. to repress
this great and. growing evil"
The platform declares the. republican
party is responsible for the numerous
violations of law on the part of the
negroes because the latter believe they
are afforded protection and immunity
from punishment by reason of their
votes, which the platform asserts, are
cast almost solidly for the. republican
ticket.

A Boundary Discovery.

Ottawa, Ont, Aug. 3.-It has Just
transpired in connection with the Alas
ka boundary matter that Canada not
long ago made an important territorial
concession to the United States. In 1893
commissioners We're appointed to gather
the necessary data for the proper de-
Limitation of the boundary. These COM
missioners-Gen. Duffield for the Unit
ed States and Mr.. King. dominion as
tronomer, for Canada-were empowered
to engage competent surveyors, who
were to definitely locate the Hist meri-
dian, which is the official boundary men
toned in the treaty as dividing Canada
from Alaska. When the necessary OBJ
seryations had been taken 1t was dis
covered that the 141st meridian struck
the coast over the western shoulder of
Mount st. Elias. The United States au-
thorities suggested that 1t would be
more convenient to take the apex of
Mount ST. Elias as the initial starting
point of the boundary line. This was
moving the boundary 2.41 statute miles
farther east, and 1t was agreed that the
new boundary line thus run should tap
the true meridian line twenty three and
one-third statute miles from Mount ST.
Elias. The United States authorities by
this arranement were made present OF
twenty-eight square miles of territory
Canada readily consented to make this
gift.
The gift is recalled today as an in
stance that Canada does not always ad-
here to the Chamberlain motto of
What we will have we will hold" In
view of the uncompromising attitude of
the United States in the recent negoti-
atoms there are many who regret now,
however. that Canada deviated one inch
from the true meridian.

three heats was 2:03 5-6 while his mile
in the opening heat was the fastest

the mile faster, and so positive were the
other drivers in the race that the mile
was faster they stepped into the judges
stand and made complaint.

TELLS OF NATIVES GRIEVANCES
Story of Captain Martin. Who Es-
capped From Insurgent Army.

Manila, June l5.-Edwin wildman has
written the New York Journal as fol-
lows: l was able to secure an interview
with Capt. Martin, who escaped from
the insurgent army. Capt. Martin was
IN Gen. Baldermo Aguinaldo's division.
and under his supervision all the in
trenchments surrounding Paranaque,
Las Pinas and numerous other towns in
the province of Cavite We're con-
otructed.
He said he was heartily tired of the
war, and for his part believed in the
promises of the Americans. and for that
reason. after having read the procla-
nation Of the president, deserted his
army and came to Manila for the pur-
pose of trying to secure conference
with the officers OF the insurgent army
in the southern provinces of Luzon
Capt. Martin says that the natives
principal grievances are: First that
America promised them insufficient
guarantees; that our offers are of such
general nature that the majority Of
the people are led TO believe that it is
but repetition of Spanish tricks to get
them to give up their arms.
Second-That we psIotect and leave in
power the Spanish priests, saying that
SO long as we do this they will never
give up the Spanish prisoners. The
natives hate the Spaniards, particular
ly the priests and officials with hate
born of long suffering.
Third-They object to our allowing
Chinese labor in the island. They say
IL we open the ports to the Chinese or
allow them to come here they will mur-
der every Chinaman in the interior.
Capt. Martin further confirms the
many reports that every officer in the
insurgent army who has shown lean
Ing toward peace or surrender is
promptly put out of the way or reduced
in rank. For that reason he says Agui-
naldos brother superseded Trias, for
mer commander of the forces in Cavite.
Batangas and the Luguna de Bay
provinces. Iiasked him where the in
surgents got all their powder and am
munition, and he replied that there
were powder factories all over the
island, two in Cayite alone. one at
linus, one at San Francisco del Monte,
and the insurgents had plenty of lead
and shells. That in the three provinces
named the insurgents had over 1000
rifles and several cannon.
asked him why, If the insurgents
were brave and thought they could
stand up against the Americans, they
did not show fight oftener instead of
running away after doing little skir-
mish firing.
'"That is not their plan,' he said. 1--WE
were not taught to fight that way. Our
belief has been that while you could
capture the small territory around Ma
nila and the largest seaports. you never
could whip or catch us in the interior.
and that we could hold out against you
Indefinitely in the mountains, where we
could live as well as In the valleys"
