IOWA DEMOCRATS FoR BRYAN.
Endorsed Free Silver but Did Not
Mention 10 to 1.

DesMoines, Ia. May 3.-For delegates
at large to the Kansas City Convention:
Cato Sells of Vinton C. A. Walsh of
Ottumwa, John S. Murphy of Dubuque,
and George Baker of Davenport
Alternates-Edward b. Evans of Des-
Moines, AVIAN Wagenen of Sioux City, L.
T. Genung of Minis county, and Daniel
p. Stubbs of Fairfield.
These were the nominations made by
the Iowa Democrats In session here to-
day. The proceedings were harmonious
throughout, and the convention was the
largest held by the Democrats of this
state In recent years, nearly 1000 delegates
being present.
The prevailing sentiment was over
whelmingly for Bryan, and the delegates
were instructed to vote as a unN for
him at Kansas City.
In the framing Of the platform the more
conservative element prevailed The Chi
cego platform is indorsed and the gold
standard denounced. The ratio of 16 to
/ does not appear In the resolutions. The
selection Of John S. Murphy, editor Of
the Dubuque Telegraph. was a concession
to the radical advocates of free silver.
Did Not Mention I0 to 4.
Jeremiah B. Sullivan of Creston was
temporary chairman, and Douglas Dere-
more of Waukon, permanent president
of the convention. Mr.. Sullivan was
given tremendous applause in response
to his denunciation OF trusts and imperial
ism and his Endorsement of w. j. Bryan
for President. Nowhere I'm his speech did
he mention 16 to 1.
Mr.. Sullivan said among other things:
"The Democratic party stands for BIZ
metanism and ever will. II Is opposed to
a money trust as much as IL Is to sugar
trust.
'"rhe trusts must so and there Is but
one party that can ana will accomplish
II, and that is the Democratic party. You
cannot hope the Republican party will
crush the trust. Do you expect a fother
to chastse his most obedient son?
Imperialism, militarism and trusts are
one. They mean gigantic consolida ton,
and woe to the common people when they
are united.
''The infinite God gave us victory with
extremely small cost OF life. Instantly the
cry went up for a colonial system In for
eign lands. the bark OF imperialism was
foated and the republic had departed from
the moorings OF it's founders.
'If Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines
are not to become pert of the United
States" he concluded. Then the flag of
our nation floats over slaves.
The Platform Adopted.
The convention adopted resolution Of
ferel by former Congressman Walter
Butter. providing that the delegates con-

BROUGHT IN TAYLOR's NAME.
CuIton Said He Wanted to Get YOut-
sey Out of the State.

Frankfort KY, May S.-W. H. Culton
resumed his testimony in the Gobei mur-
der investigation to-day. He stated that
Gov. Taylor authorized the witness to
give Youtsey any amount Of money de-
sired if he would leave Kentucky.
At a conference in Lexington the Sunday
before Gov. Goebel was shot, IL was decid-
ed, he said, that Representative Henry
Berry who had been unseated a few days
before. should go to the House of Repre-
sentatives next morning and take his
seat and refuse to give it up.
vanMeter, his opponent was to be in
sbme way prevented from going to the
hall that morning.
Caleb Powers, who was at the confer
ence, telephoned to Gov. Taylor at Frank
fort two or three times In regard 10 the
conference.
Culton said he did not know where
Powers or Youtsey were when the shot
that killed Goebel was fired. During the
last talk he had with Youtsey the latter
said the pan to kill Goebel had been
abandoned. Culton had been asked by
Taylor to ascertain what the witnesses
in the contest knew because he was
lawyer. To the prosecution Culton said
he had told more now on the stand than
ne nad 10 any person except MS IdtneT.
His testimony then ended.
To Cali Special Term.
This afternoon Judge Centrell announced
that as the counsel had failed to agree
as to the date for the trials of Powers
Youtsey, Whitaker, Davis and Combs,
venued 10 Scott county, he would call
special term of the court in that county
to begin the second Monday In July.
Judge Cantrell said that on the first day
of the special term all of the cases trans
of the special term all OF the cases trans
hearing, but that II Will doubtless be i'm
possible TO finish up more than one or
two of them during the term. The as
sassination cases, al told, In the opinion
of the lawyers. will string out during the
greater pare of the next twelve months.
The most important testimony brought
out this afternoon was that of two OF
the physicians who assisted In the autop-
sy on the body of Goebel. This had never
been made public before. DR.. T. r.
Welch OF Jessamine county, a state SEN
ator who was also one of GoebePs physi-
clans, conducted the autopsy, assisted by
Drs. r. T.. Hume and j. r.. Ely
DR.. Welch gave long technical state
ments about the bullet entering the right
side. and passing out on the left D. NJ

the measurements In the state house yard
exhibited a map OF that Vicinity, to show
that the shot was fired from a window

bullet, which was cut off by the tree near
where Goebel fell and which is supposed
to have passed through his body, was
produced in court.

Around Thaba Nchu.

Around Thaba Nchu.

issued here reports that on April Is the
federals captured nine prisoners and ten

BOARDING OF THE SEA WITCH.
State Department Inquiring Into Ac-
ton of the Wasp.

London. May 8. e0s p. NIT has been
learned by a representative of the Associ-
ated Press that United States Ambassador
Choate has asked Lord Salisbury for ex-
plantations as to the alleged abuse of inter-
national rights in the case OF the American
ship Sea Witch. which, according 10 the
statement of her commander, Capt. Howe,
was boarded by the British warship Wasp
within the three-nile linits of Portuguese
territory in East Africa.
The American ship Sea witchslest Wal
loroo Dec. 3 and arrived at De,agoa bay
Feb. u. She sailed March for Port
Natal Ourbau), and arrived there
March 8.
The American ambassadors communi-
cation to the premier hardly amounts to
protest and serious complications are not
likely TO ensue. The case as transmitted
by Secretary Hay 10 London consists of
the captains allegation that while the
Sea Witch was off Delagoa bsy he sig
nailed TO the Wasp, which was patroling
and the Wasp sent a boat to her The
captain of the Sea Witch complains that
the visit resembled a warke boarding
party, and that his manifest was exam
ined against his will, when palpably with
in neutral waters. If the latter statement
is true a serious offense has been COM
mitted by the Wasp, which will call for an
ample apology from Great Britain.
But it is pointed out that the fact that
the Sea Witch signalled the Wash before
the warship noticed her invests the case
with a curious uncertainty. Apparently
both Mr.. Choate and Lord Salisbury are
inclined to believe that there is some
mistake, perhaps on both sides.
The Premier has referred the matter to
the admiralty, which has no record of
the occurrence, but has cabled to South
Africa for the Wasp's version of the af-
fair, and 1t is possible that some time
may elapse before the British reply is
ready.
Meantime, the incident does not inter-
fere in the slightest with the diplomatic
cordiality existing between the representa-
tives of the two nations Interested

| roof, but he died and so did the roses. | In Cincinnati there is one city house whose roof reconciles the owner to city | summers Flower boxes, full of bril- | liant geraniums, roses and seed plants are set around the edge of the roof; and from them droop swaying tendrils Of vine, clinging to the walls and wander ing down as far as the second story
 windows From upright rods at the
 roof corners wires are stretched along above the towering boxes, and on them
 are festooned Madeira vine, canary bird vine with it's brilliant yellow flowers, and towering honeysuckIe. An awning
 is stretched over large part of the roof and under 1t are rugs hammocks
 chairs and a table, so that one may loaf
 and look off through waving vines and
 bright flowers and invite ones soul as comfortably as though in Already. There is nothing exactly of the kind in
 New York but there will be before ths summer ends: for the wife of New
 York artist has come back from Cincin-
 nati with determination in her eye, and
 there is a mighty planting and grubbing going on on that artists roof.
 Wistaria, clematis, Japanese honey suckle, scarlet creeper and some varie-
 ties of climbing roses notably the Baltl- more Belle and the Prairie Queen, will grow in the tiny plots of front or back yard allowed to the average New York house, if one will give them decent soil and little care. The many balconies on private houses and apartment houses offer another glorious opportunity for beauty. Boxes of flowers may be set along their balustrades, and from them moneywort, the hardy partridge vine with it's red berries, the conyolvulus, the cranberry vine or some of the numerous lvies may droop and twine around rail- ings and posts. The climbing cobea will climb from balustrade corners up over the wall and around the windows even though the exposure be a southern one and the bricks baking hot, While if the balcony has a roof and a shady side there are any number of towering vines that will convert it into thing of beau- ty.
 City flowers may be on the increase, but there's still broad field of aesthet- ic possibility before them, and the chil- dren and the women must push on the good work for motives both selfish and altruistic.-New York Sun.

 Then, without going to Richmond, Grant went to Washington to hurry the decrease of the army and lessen the great expense.
