Kansas City, July civilian J. Bryan or Nebraska was tonight unanimously placed in nomina tion as the Democratic candidate for President on a Democratic platform op- posing imperialism, militarism and trusts and specifically declaring for the free coin age of silver at ratio of 16 to 1. The nom nation came as the continuation of fren- zied demonstration in honor of the party leader lasting 27 minutes and giving utter ance to all the pent up emotions Of the vast multitude. It followed also a fierce strug- gle throughout the last thirty-six hours concerning the platform declaration Of sll- yer and the relative position which the silver question is to maintain to the other great issues of the day.
 It was late this afternoon when the con yention was at last face. to face with the Presidential nomination. Early in the day there had been tedious delays due to ma bility of the platform committee to recon cile their differences and present report. Until this was ready the convention mana gers beguiled the time by putting forward speakers of more or less prominence to keep the vast audience from becoming rest less. The first session, beginning at 10 o'clock this morning, was entirely fruitless of results and it was not until late in the

Correspondents Tell of the Pekin
 Situation.
FOREIGNERS WERE SLAUGHTERED
Accol ding to Reports the Supplies in the Legations Became Exhausted and the Chinese Mob Over
 powered the Guards

London, July 6, 2:SO a. m.-The story that all foreigners in Pekin were murdered on June 30 or July 1, appears to be circulating simultaneously at Che Foo, Shanghai and Ten Tsin. Yet it is not confirmed by of- ficial dispatches, and is not traceable to the southern Viceroys, who are still in com munication with Pekin, there is basis for the hope that it is untrue
 Cautious observers at Shanghai recognize that even though these reports are re- gretted, events in Pekin must be hastening to tragic end. Correspondents of the Ex- press at Shanghai gather details from Chf- nese sources, which, put together relate that when the foreigners ammunition was exhausted, the Boxers and imperial troops rushed to the British legation and poured in the court yard with fanatical fury. The foreign troops were so completely out numbered that their fate was certain.
 The moment the mob broke out the court yard was converted into shambles. Others of the invaders spread into the interior Of the building.
 One correspondent adds: Tt is only left to hope that in the final rush of the mur- derous hordes, the men of the legations had time to slay with their own hands their womenkind and children.
 The Chinese are whispering the terrible story under their breath. Their attitude towards foreigners in the streets has un- dergone a strange change. The demeanor of the better class of Chinese is one of pity rather than of triumph. Even the rabble in the native quarters are silent.
 Something of this eliminating tragedy in the ghastly history of recent events in Pekin seems to pervade the very atmos- ta ltNG1 hI1{ rpi n c A our hopes. !
 Consuls Fear Report is True
 The Consuls fear that the report is too true, and the Chinese officials do not att tempt to seek reasons to deny.
 Two Manchus who have arrived at Shang- hai certify to the truth of the statement that Prince Yuan visited the palace and off, fered the Emperor and the Dowager Em- press the alternative of poison or the sword. The Emperor, they say, took pois- on and died within an hour.
 The Dowager Empress also chose poison, but craftily swallowed only a portion of what was offered her and survived. On the same day the Chinese customs bureau was destroyed. Sir Robert Hart, the in- spector of customs escaped to the lega- tions. Intense indignation is felt at Shanghai against the supposed action of the powers in restraining Japan from send- ing an army into Pekin immediately.
 The powers are accused of being guilty of murder, and Sir Robert Hart is also, for not having informed the foreigners of the immense imports of arms, especially a few weeks ago.
 The Chinese commanders are r~.Haring for a long, severe campaign, and are put ting into operation plans drawn up by German officers last year for resisting an invasion from the seaboard by Russia. The correspondent of the Daily Mail at

 THREW THE CONVENT ION INTO PANDEMONlUN

herents of Bryan emerged scared, but victorious.
 They have written the platform in their own way, with 16 to l, but it was a vic- tory by a scratch, for a single vote would have turned the vote. And it has not been a victory without concession, for, in the final draft silver is no longer paramount" It is far down in the platform, while in the very forefront is the declaration of the i'm perialism, which is the paramount issue of this campaign"
 There remains only the choice of a can didate for Vice President, and the work of the convention is over. There is every evil dence that this choice will be quickly made tomorrow morning, although there is still doubt as to who the nominee will be.

OLDHAM GIVEN A GREAT OVATION
BY E. w. BARNETT.

Kansas City, July 5.-(Special. )-Bryan has been nominated by exclamation amidst the most wonderful display of enthusiasm The platform, after much contesting in committee, was drafted to suit all ele- ments and was adopted unanimously with a display of enthusiasm greater than any demonstration during the days session of the convention.
 The Vice Presidency is yet open, with another tidal wave sweeping towards Hill brought about by Hills great speech seer onding the nomination of Bryan, and de- claring that the platform was worthy of the vote and approval of every man who claims to be a Democrat Indeed, Hill s speech seemed to draw to him almost every delegation in the convention. The contest for Vice President now seems to be be- tween Hill and Adlai Stevenson. Towne is apparently entirely out of it.
 The platform committee was in session all last night. It was o'clock this morn ing before the debate ended, and the com mittee voted to repeat the 16 to l declara- tion, but to make it subservient to other issues, and not to be the all conspicuous declaration of the platform. Indeed the platform declares that imperialism is the paramont issue in this campaign
 When this was read in the convention there was the most intense display of en- thusiasm for full fifteen minutes. The en- tire platform met with the approval of the convention, and the unanimity with which it was endorsed, after the long wrangle in committee over it, was remarkable.
 After the adoption of the platform Web ster Davis was permitted to take the stand, and declared himself a Democrat on the platform adopted His speech aroused more enthusiasm among the spectators than among the delegates
 The Great Demonstration
 Then William D. Oldham, of Nebraska, by courtesy of the Alabama delegation, Alabama being the first State called, made Bryan for President. At it's conclusion the convention went off into delirium of en- thusiasm lasting an hour, during which bands played, thousands of flags waved and delegates and specta tors cheered and sang and even danced in the aises. It was per haps the most lasting Democratic demon stration ever witnessed in an American po- litical convention.
 This was followed by Hills speech sec Onding the nomination. endorsing the plat form and declaring that New York would go for the ticket. Hill was given the most enthusiastic ovation. Had vote been taken this evening he would have been nominated for Vice President regardless of the action of the New York delegation and regardless of his own wishes. It may be he will be nominated tomorrow.
 Tennent Lomax seconded the nomination of Bryan for the Alabama delegation, de- livering a brief but eloqeunt speech which called forth much applause.

The Atternoon Session

It was not until o'clock that Chairman Richardson, turning from a conference with. Governor McMillin and Senator White, rapped the convention to order. The platform committee, headed by Senator Jones, D. J. Campau, Senator Tillman and Judge Van Wyck had just pushed their way through the dense throngs, and pro- ceeding to the platform had taken seats f1anking the chairman. MT. Richardson ap- pealed long and vainly for order. The port 1y form of Senator Jones' silver haired and serious, advanced to the front of the stage.

How to Talk Interestingly.

"Entertaining conversation is not alone
dependent upon a well stored mind, n
ready wit or broad culture" writes Mrs.
Burton Kingsland, in The Ladies' Home
Journal 1T lays under contribution
qualities of heart as well as head and
should reveal sincerity, sympathy and
simplicity. We must feel an interest in
our subject before we can inspire it, and
enthusiasm is contagious when it is sin
cere. 1t gives animation to the face, vi
vacity to the manner and has a thought
compelling power that aids fluency of
expression. Sympathy and adaptability
are created in u measure by the desire to
please, but one must be sensitive to the
mood of ones audience and quick to per-
ceive when some one else wishes to speak.
"There are takers who metaphorically
take the bit between their teeth and run
away with a subject. When they finally
cease, no one has anything to say, de-
spatring of opportunity. Without SIM
plicity no conversation has charm. The
moment we perceive that it is labored, or
that the speaker seems to calculate the
effect of his words, If unnecessary men
tion Is made of desirable acquaintance
or there is a display of attainments or
mock innocent vaunting of advantages
that moment do we feel only contempt for
the affectation and pretense. Truth has
marvellous power of making itself felt,
in spite of what is said. Self conscious
ness is but egotism under less severe
name, and self must be forgotten before
we can add to our speech the grace and
dignity of simplicity"

That New York Partnership.

The evidences of an existing political
partnership between Mr.. Croker and
Senator Platt, of New York, are strong
and numerous. The advantage to each
in such pooling of issues is pal
pable. But it is equally clear that if
there is such political firm as Croker
& Platt there is third partner, who,
though silent, is quite as deeply inter-
ested in the concern as either of the
others. The silent partner in the con-
Germ is Governor Theodore Roosevelt,
of New York.
Some months ago it was charged that
Mr. Croker and Mr.. Platt were inter-
ested with the mayor of New York In
a trust to control the ice supply of the
city and eXtort big profits from the
sufferings of the poor. Governor Roose-
welt expressed the most intense indig-
nation at the time and declared that
If the facts were as alleged he would
use his authority as governor to re-
move the mayor and otherwise punish
the conspirators against the health of
the people of the city. The investiga-
tion proceeded, the disgraceful facts
were revealed, but the governor has
not acted. The reason is obvious.
Governor Roosevelt and Senator
Platt are so closely bound together In
their political relations that an expos
ure of one involves the disgrace of both
The removal of Mayor Van Wyck will
be followed by complete exposure of
the conspiracy to rob the public by
over charging for ice, and Platt and
Roosevelt will be as deep in the rlire
as Croker and Van Wyck are in the
mud For that reason the promise to
enforce the law made by Roosevelt
three months ago is still unfulflled.

Worked the Fiim-FIam Game.

Two strange men ilimflammed a
Scranton Italian and succeeded in doing
him out of $40 or $50 in good, hard
money. The game was an old one, but
it worked. The Italian was walking
down Lackawanna avenue when he saw
IA man ahead of him pick something
from the sidewalk. The fellow turned
to him and showing him what appeard
to be 500 bill, told the Italian to say
nothing and he would divide. The
Italian acquiesced and the pair walked
on until they met third man. They
could not get the change for the bill,
they explained to the Italian, without
exciting suspicion. He offered to
change it if they would go to his house
with him.
The trio journeyed to the South Side
and the Italian paid them $40 and took
the bill. Later when he tried to deposit
it in the bank he found that it was
counterfeit.

OUR OWN COUNTRY.

There is land, Of every land the pride,
Beloved by heaven DER all the world beside,
Where brighter suns dispense serener light
And milder moons imparadiss the night
land of beauty, virtue, va1or, truth,
Time tutored age and love exalted youth;
There is spot of earth supremely blest,
dcarer, sweeter spot than all the rest,
Where man, creations tyrant, casts aside
His sword and scepter, pageantry and pride,
While in his softened looks benignly blend
The sire, the son, the husband, brother, friend.
Where shall that land, that spot of earth be
found?
Art thou man, patriot2 Look around.
Oh, thou shalt find, howe'er thy footsteps roam,
That land thy country and that spot thy homel
