M'KINLEY ALARMED.

Organized Movement Discovered to Prevent
Ills denomination much Secret Work
Done
WASHINGTON, October 1S.-Much
comment has been caused here to-day
by positive statement printed in the
Evening Star, a conservative paper
friendly to the present administration,
that the Presidents lieutenants have
discovered an organized movement to
prevent McKinley's denomination. The
story in full is as follows:
There is an organized secret move
ment looking to the defeat of Presi
dent Mckinley for denomination. The
existence Of this movement is known 70
some of the Presidents friends, and it
is said that the President was induced
TO make his western trip somewhat
of a campaigning tour with the view
of counteracting what is being done I'M
der cover by his enemies. The posi-
tiveness and openness of the Pres;-
dents recent speeches, especially that
of yesterday in Wisconsin, in which he
comes out without equivocation in de-
Tense of the policy of expansion, is re-
garded as proof that he has become
thoroughly satisfied that the country /:
behind him in this policy and that by
that sign he can defy all opposition.
1T is known that the planning to
bring Admiral Dewey into the field as
a candidate against the President is
not the only thing being laid out in
the way of developing an oppositin in
the Republican National convention.
An effort is being made to effect An or
ganization strong enough to prevent
McKinley's denomination independently
of the candidacy Of any particular man
at this time in mind. If Dewey should
be available he would probably be the
first choice, but it is not proposed to
make the issue dependent upon his
availability. How far the movement
has met with encouragement cannot be
ascertained, but a number of promi-
nent men have been approached on
the subject, and a definite plan of cam
paign has been disclosed to them"

of Aguinaldo, and alleged letters writ
ten by Rounsevello Wildman, United
States Consul at Hong Kong to Agui-
naldo, in June and July of last year.
1t has made a sensation among the
Spaniards here.
Replying to Aguinaldo's request that
the Americans would arrange for the
shipment of the Spanish prisoners to
Hong Kong, relieving the Filipinos of
the expense of maintaining them, Mr..
Wildman wrote:
Never mind feeding them. A meal
every day of rice and water will be
good diet. They have been living too
high during the last five years. AS the
Spaniards want more bloodshed in the
Philippines, l trust you will let them
have taste of real war. Do not be so
tender with them Handle them as
they would treat you"
Mr.. Wildman's letters deal largely
with the shipment of arms. The whole
correspondence, however, contains no
promises of independence Senior Buen-
canine lays stress on letters from Adj
miral Dewey and Gen. Anderson re-
questing passes for American officers
others to visit Filipino territory. And
upon letter from Gen. Anderson ask
ing you and your people to cooper
ate with us in military operations
against the Spaniards.

Mr.. BRYAN SAID
iect of the letter:

on the subject of the letter:
Il want to say that did not come to
sit in judgment on any convention. l
did not come to discuss the details Of an
election law. I come to say, and l say
with emphasis, that if there was any
thing done in that convention that a
Democrat does not think ought to have
been done. 1 ask of that Democrat what
his remedy is. Is it to elect Republi-
can Governor and Republican officials?
The man who tries to cut Democratic
convention by electing Republican
Governor assumes responsibility for all
that Governor does after he has been
elected"
Mr.. Bryan then urged his hearers
to support the regular nominee of the
Democratic convention, saying that
the convention not only reafirmed the
declarations of the Chicago platform
but defined the attitude of the party on
the issues that have arisen since 1896.
The survival of these principles ne de-
clared 70 be of more Importance than
the question Of candidates He assert
ed it was not question between Goe-
bel and another Democrat but between
Goebel and the election OF a Reoubli-
can Governor and Republican State Of
fcers. He recognized the right Of any
man to bolt, but said he thought This
a very poor way OF remedying wrong,
fancied or real that might have been
done BY rae Louisville convention.
