THE BIRTHDAY OF JUAREZ
The Event Is Celebrated Today
Throughout Mexico, And Is a
Holiday in JudreZ.

Over the Mexican consulate in El
Paso and over the public buildings of
Ciudad Juarez are flying the flags of
Mexico today. Appropriately, too, for
today is the birthday of that Benito
Juarez who is one of the greatest men
Mexico has given the world. He was
prominent as defender of the country
during the war with the French, and
it was he who promul2 ated the reform
which separated church and state.
After the French war, he was de-
clared by the congresses of the various
Spanish-American republics, to be
worthy OF the designation of beneme-
rito, a man worthy the consideration
and respect of all America.
He was born in 1909, and his death
occurred In 1872.

With the announcement made from
the Santa Fee Offices that the Santa Fe
line into San Francisco will be open

this delay is not due so much to the
work on the track as the prepare tions
on equipment. A few soft places in
the track have yet to be made firm,
and the tunnel just out of Stockton
is yet to be walled. Local trains are

A TWENTY PER CENT INCREASE
In the Orange Business Through
the FL paso 6ateWay-Mr. Sdr-
neot Talks-AdVOCates d New
Dam-GouIds Favor FL pdsO

u"Tbis season has marked the actua
and officIal recognition of the Ell Paso
gateway by rauscont1nental Shippers
Ia the orange trade, and the immedl-
ate result las been a big increase In
traffic through this point" This is
what e. L. Sargent, general frelgnI
agent OF the Texas and Pacific, SAID
this morning in discussing the fre1ght
situation here.
"By the FL Paso gateway is meant
the routing of fruit through this city
via the S. p. and the T. & p, and con-
Meeting lines at Fort Worth, on to
Kansas City, in preference to shipping
the fruit over the Santa Fe, or even by
the Ogden route, as has been dGne IN
former years. Lately we have maze a
fight for our share of the business, ana
the result has been twenty per cent
increase in orange shipments through
Ell Paso this winter. The time OF the
fast freights from Los Angeles to K an
sas Ofty is only five days,-shorter than
by any other route, and the FISK from
sudden and cooling changes In tempe
nature Is mipimized.
"All our freight business to Ell Paso
shows great increase, too, this year.
The freight is of general and INSECT
laneous sort, and we are glad TO see IL.
But [ share the belief common among
most railroad men that one dam mere,
international or otherwise, would be
of more benefit TO the town than any
four railroads which could be built
here. No town can be city and pros
per as one without an adjoining and
tributary territory Of agricultural
people.
'sAs to the union depot proposition,
am sure that Mr.. Gould will be dis
posed to help Ell Psso all he can, and
If the kind of help needed lies in that
particular direction, he may be counted
on to give his support. The Goulds
are ell particularly we'll disposed to-
ward this city, because their father,
Jay Gould, spent several months OF
two winters here, and always thought
well OF the prospects of Ell Paso, and
liked it.
"Mr. Gould was here in 80 and In
90, and, you may remember, bought
the White Oaks property, and again
sold It TO the present company"

DAY DEVOTED 70 Talks
PLATFORM COMMITTEE WAS NOT
PREPARED TO MAKE ITS
REPORT
PARTY LEADERS CALLED UPON
OvatiOns Given Gov. Beckham, of
Kentucky, and Other Prominent
DemOcrats-Frequent Calls for
Senator Hill Were Heard.

CONVENTION HALL, July 5.-Conven-
ton hall was again besieged today by
eager and excited thousands and long
before the time set for opening the sec
ond days proceedings of the convention
all of the streets approaching the build
ing were solidly massed with humanity,
moving forward to the many entrances.
Expectancy was at high pitch, as it
in store the great events OF the conven-
ton. By 10 o'clock, thirty minutes before
opening, nearly every seat in the galleries
was occupied, but delegates were much
more deliberate and came in slowly. The
word had gotten abroad that there would
be a fight on the floor over the adoption
of the platform, and, anticipating a ses-
sion which would be long and hard after
It had once begun, they preferred to come
on at the last minute, that their stay in
the crowded hall might be made no longer
than necessary.
The crowd was anxious to see Senator
Hill, and on two occasions when a bald
headed man came through the door lead
ing to the delegates seats they set up
the cry of HILL" which had proved so
sensational a feature at both sessions yes
terday. The senator, however, was one
of the last of the New York delegation to
arrive.
Police arrangements of the hall were a
decided Improvement over those that
characterized the opening of the conven-
ton yesterday. During the sessions on
Wednesday dense crowds Of spectators
We're allowed to congregate in front Of
the speakers stand, in front of the press
seats and up and down the aisles. These
were at times so densely packed that it
was impossible to pass through them.
These people were largely responsible for
the confusion that made it impossible
during the greater part Of the session yes
terday for the voice of any man to be
heard ten feet from the rostrum To-
day a swarm of the local police was on
hand, and they started in well by prompt
ly hustling down the passageways all
persons who were not decorated with the
proper credentials in the shape of badges
Once the delegates began to put in an
appearance they came in streams, and
the space reserved for them filled up
quickly. At 1O:3O the time set for the

land this convention ought to hold out to
them every nducement to stand by us
The fight of the approaching campaign
was to be made, he maintained, east Of
the Mississippi river, and north Of the
Ohio, and he warned the convention that
unless the Democratic party could carry
some of those states, victory was scarcely
possible. This statement was received
with cheers from not only the audience,
but the delegates.
Hill! HILL" came the cries again, as
Mr.. Rose concluded, but the New York
er was not present and the hands broke
out with the "Star-Spangled Banner"
The patriotic strains had no sooner sub
sided than another Hill wave passed
over the assemblage, even delegates
going with the spectators, while some of
the New Workers sought to offset the de-
mand by shouting for Grady" Again
the band came to the rescue, and the
hurrahs for Hill gave way to Dixie"
AT every pause, however, the Hill shout
ers clamored for their favorite.
Both Chairman Richardson and Ser
eeant-at-Arms Martin moved up and down
the front of the platform, gesticulating
wildly and making pantomime appeals

briefly and was frequently applauded
OVATION TO BECKHAM.
AS Mr.. Williams took his seat Chairman
Richardson announced, I'VE will now be
addressed by Gov. J. w. Beckham, of
Kentucky
Instantly there was a roar of applause,
and delegates and spectators springing
upon their chairs to get better view Of
the young governor of Kentucky, waved
their hats and handkerchiefs franticallv
The greeting was a fitting counterpart
to the reception given to Gov Taylor, of
Kentucky, in Philadelphia When Gov.
Reckham reached the stand, where all
could see him, he was given a reception as
enthusiastic as any extended by. the dele
gates to any speaker who has thus far
addressed the convention. The galleries
did not respond with the same hearth
ness.
The young governor of Kentucky is
man of five feet nine or ten, slender and
clean shaver. He was dressed in a mod
est sack suit of dark serge, and spoke
slowly and with elaboration, evidently
weighing his words carefully. His first
assertion that, in his opinion, the enthu-
siastic reception extended to him was due
not to him personally, but to 1.-The out
ragged Democracy" of his state, called
forth another roar of applause, which
was equaled moment later when he
promised that Kentucky would he car
ried safely for the Democratic party
His remark that of late there had been
considerable exodus Of criminals from his
state evoked laughter and applause and
few cries of Traitor 1--WE have had
such dose Of Republican rule" said the
speaker, that Kentucky is prepared to
accept any platform which the Democrat
ic party will present No matter what
