Details to BE Arranged By the Ma
tional Committee To-day
KANSAS CITY, July 1.-Ex-Governor
Stone Of Missouri said the Democratic Ma
tional Committee will meet tomorrow
morning. and that there were three names
mentioned for temporary chairman OF the
CONGRATULATIONS d. S. Rose OF Milwau-
kee. Governor Thomas of Colorado. and
John ]. Lentz OF Ohio. A prominent Demo-
crat close to Ex-Governor Stone said:
THE Convention will meet Wednesday
at noon and listen to the speech of the
temporary chairman, and will appoint the
committees. including the Committee on
Permanent Organization. This committee
will get right to work. and the Convention
will adjourn until evening. On Wednes
day evening the Committee on Permanent
Organization will be ready to report. and
after the speech OF Chairman James d.
Richardson of Tennessee there will be q
motion to suspend the rules and proceed
to nomination OF the candidate for Presi-
dent.
That will be perfectly proper and par
liamentary, although it may be a little
out Of tho ordinary at Presidential con-
ventiona. because the candidate will be
nominated before the Platform has been
adopted. The platform will be adopted
Thursday. Then the candidate for Vice
President will be nominated IL the two
things can be done in ono day. On Friday
il the present programme is carried out
Mr.. Bryan will come here from Lincoln
to address the Convention 1 don't sec
any reason why he should not He will
have been nominated, and by coming here
he will have an opportunity to make
speech to 5000 people. the greater num-
Der of whom he will be unable to reach
essin during the campaign"
Such old war horses as Stone. Jones, and
Altgeld are very strongly opposed to the
nomination Of Bryan until the platform is
adopted. They do not see the necessity
for it, they say. and they go on to add
that all know that Bryan is the candidate
of this Convention and OF the Democratic
party, and 1t would be contrary to prece-
dent to turn things upside Down by nomi-
mating him before the platform has been
adopted

which would suit New York Demcc; S

The Indiana delegation will hold a con-
ference In the Coates House tomorrow at

from Indiana that he was net canoidzts

delegates from Indiana got here and con-
sidered his position on this question.
Whether OF not Mr. Shiveley's friends VIII

ADMIRAL PHILIPS DEATH.

ton for Re iircmcnt

It's Effect on Captain Idc,s Appiica-
tIon for Retirement.
The death of Rear Admiral Philip will
prevent the retirement from active service
on his own application OF Capt. George
E. Ide, recently detached from the Guam
Station ship Yosemite and ordered to the
United States Naval Hospital at Yoko-
hama for medical treatment Under the
Naval Personnel act there must be a speci-
fled number OF vacancies in each grade of
the navy from captain to lieutenant every
year to afford natural, even flow of pro-
motion. When there are not enough va
cancies created in grade by regular re-
tirements. deaths, designations. and dis
missals the list Of those applying for re-
tirement is resorted to, and if. when this
is exhausted. there are not enough vacan-
cies created. Board OF Rear Adtnirals
names enough officers to fill the list. se!ec-
tion being confined to those believed 10 be
least fitted to remain in the service.
Admiral Philips death will cause the
promotion to flag rank OF Capt. Merrill
Miller. thus making one more vacancy in
the list of captains. AS Captain Ite was
the last officer of his grade to voluntarily
apply for retirement. he must remain on
the active list for another year unless his
illness should carse his retirement en- ac-
count of disability. These voluntary and
compulsory retiremeIts take effect from
yesterday the beginning OF the fiscal year.
Had Admiral Philip died yesterday instead
of Saturday Captain Ide would have been
retired.
The Board of Rear Admirals appointed
to select two lieutenants for retirement to
complete the necessary annual vacancies
in that grade will meet again today to de-
initely determine on those two officers.

of Horror on the SanIe.
PHILADELPHIA. July Rear Admir-
al George W. Melville, who is now in this

aboard the Saale. The admiral had been
in Brooklyn and was passing in the tug

we observed immense fires to the eastward
of US. AS we approached the wharves OF
tho Hamburg American Line. Captain Sea-
bury instructed the captain OF the tug to
proceed to the largest vessel on fire. We
rounded the stern of tho Saale bringing up
on the weather side to avoid the fire as
much as we could. although great masses
OF flames were bursting from her side.
"We saw numerous persons between the
burning decks above and also between the
bulkheads of the lower decks. trying to
get through the miserable little ports or
dead lights. not more than eight or nine
inches in diameter. Pretty well aft there
was woman with her bare arm thrsSsst
through the dead light, her face pressed
tightly against her arm. She was an elder
ly woman. her grey hair parted in the mid
die. and combed down tightly over her
head This, together with the look OF hor-
ror on her face. gave her n most pitiable
appearance. She cried to us to save her.
We pushed the tug directly alongside the
ship. holding the bows close to the liner.
Il Immediately cried to the captain.
Turn the hose on that woman's head and
keep her COOL The hose was turned on her
and just forward OF where the woman was
the fire was raging. Just forward a man

his head. He began to strip himself of

hose was put through the port and water
was poured down his back to keep him

1t is probable that Minister Wu will re-
