New York, July Ex-senator James X
Jones, chairman of the National Demo-
cratic Committee. reached the city to-day
from Washington. and went direct to the
Hoffman House. He said that no na-
tional headquarters will be established in
this city for the present; that the Demo-
cratic State Committee would manage the
campaign In New York until such time as
1t might be deemed necessary TO estab-
fish national headquarters. He will re-
main here five days.
II came here to look over the situa-
tion,' he said, "and talk with the Lead
ers. don't know how long | shall stay.
possibly L may leave tomorrow. 1t will
depend entirely on circumstances. We
think that the Democratic State Commit
tee officers ore competent 10 carry on the
campaign in this state"
When asked what he thought of the sig
nificance of the failure of the Gold Demo
Gratis to nominate a third ticket he re-
piled:
why, / think that means that a num-
Der OF Gold Democrats will vote for Bry-
an. ! don't see what other construction
can be placed on IT,"

ing on Aug. u, he answered:

ly and will help the Democratic party IN
various ways"
Speaking OF the absence of any income
tax plank in the Democratic platform,
Senator Jones said:
las chairman of the National Demo-
cratic Committee and also as chairman OF
the Platform Committee, can say at
this time that It was matter OF unin-
territorial oversight that il was left out.
II was in the platform, but the steno-
grapher in revising his notes, left II OUT
and II was not noticed l had an addi-
ton to be submitted. and II was merely
matter OF oversight. II practically
makes no difference, anyhow. as the
platform indorses the platform of 1896 and
that necessarily Endorses the income tax
plank In that platform. We have. then.
in an indirect way. II IL true, an income
tax plank"
Later In the day Mr.. Jones held con-
ference with ex-Gov. Stone of Missouri

the Mexican troops and the Yucatan In

awaited with the greatest anxiety in
Mexico City. The Mexicans have been
chasing the Mayo Indians in Yucatan for

the Indian tribe. Details of
the battle have not yet reached this port

GAMBLER TALKS ON CHINA.
He Maintains That We should Send
100000 Men There.

Atlanta, July N.-'If the President in
tends to exert his strength in saving the
lives OF American citizens in China, be-
lieve that right now is the time for him
to do So" said Gov. Gambler tonight,
when asked for an expression on the Chi
nese trouble.
The Governor has maintained all along
that it was the duty of the United
States to send 10000 men to Taku at once.
uation of this kind he believes the Amer
lean citizen abroad should be protected,
and that the only way to gain that pro
lection is through an armed force.
THE foreign offices of Europe" said the
Governor. have not accepted the dispatch
from Conger obtained through Minister
WI with as much readiness as has Wash
ington. The President evidently believes
implicitly everything the representative of
China says. l do not mean to say for
moment that l disbeIeve the statements
of Minister Wu-far from 1t. 1 accord to
him a disposition much higher than per-
sons have heard express themselves, but
he should not expect us to put implicit
faith in the authenticity of a telegram
which was without date and which, to all
appearances, might have been written In
the first as well as the last of July.
while this doubt and uncertainty ex-
lists, is to my mind the time to strike,
to find out the real facts and ascertain
whether we have been deceived or not
1 beNeve 10000 men should be sent, not
for the purpose of ACKNOWLEDGEMENT or to
take part in a partition which the Pow
ers would Ike to make, but solely 10 pro-
fl,a
the Chinese to underst and, il they are ca
pable of grasping the fact, that the Amer
lean citizen and his flag must be respect
ed. One hundred thousand men will be
necessary for this task, but its accom-
plishment will command respect every
where. and the effect will be a wholesome
one on our own country"

MiIdness of Porto Ricans.

For tropical people the Porto
Ricans are singularly mild, and the
majority of them accept any state
OF affairs as matter of course. A
correspondent declares that he never
heard but one Porto Rican make a
protest of any kind. A merchant was
walking along the street when he was
attacked by stray steer. The ami
NAL chased the man about a block
and finally gave him a toss that
landed him on the veranda of n
house. The American hastened to his
assistance, and was agreeably sur
prised to find that the merchant was
not injured. But his feelings were
hurt. "Senor," he said, II like it
not. The beast should have rolled
me in the ditch, instead of tossing me
here. Never before was l tossed upon
this yeranda, and 1 can't under
stand it."
