VERY QUEER TO WU TING.
Chinese Minister Sat in Convention
and Wondered-Why Did So Many
Talkp Why No Chinese-American
Delegatesp And Then the Women.

Philadelphia, June 2l.-Wu Ting
Fang, the Chinese minister at Wash
ington. who is visiting this city. said
yesterday to the New York World:
II am disappointed that the conven-
tion did not nominate the president to-
day. / could only allow myself one
day to witness the National conven-
tion, and chose this, believing that
the delegates would nominate Mr.. Nc
Kinley. 1t WAS a great experience, n
scene never to be forgotten.
There were great statesmen and
great orators, who made great
speeches. But everybody was talking,
only some louder than others. Why
do they not make rule that every
body should keep their mouths shut
except those who are commissioned to
do the talking?
This is the first convention I have
ever attended, and l enjoyed it inn
mensely. 1t amused ME greatly to see
those great statesmen cheering like
so many schoolboys. the same as al
one of your foot hall games. 1t inn
pressed M with the American enthu-
sasm. The public sees the widest
demonstrations of popularity.
"Thc men, young and old, yelling
cheering, waving the national flags
and tossing their hats high in the air
were all new to me. Enthusiasm was
| contagious, and several times | found
| myself almost in the act of shouting
with .he rest without knowing why.
"Whcn the Honorable Mr.. Quay en-
| tered The hall and the great mass OF
humanity rose and greeted him with
/ the widest applause, when ever the
| ladies waved their handkerchiefs, and
l heard one cry out "-Iurrah!" then

THE MARKETS.


New York, Jrne 81 The stock market was cx.
cccdingly irregular all day today and the net
results, except in a few stocks are not large,
though the extreme rai'Cc of prices was very
considerable. Prices ruled above last night,
closing level for the greater part of the day,
and when they approached last nights level
the market almost invariably fell into extreme
dulncsS That the demand which kept up
prices came very largely from the short interest
is highly probable hut the cessation of pressure
at such times as the markets fell TO or below
last nights level indicated that LIQUIDATION was
not being forced Some support was accord
ed by the sympathetic effect Of the positive
strength manifested by New Jersey Central and
Reading first preferred. Northern Pacific was
conspicuous under pressure all day. Efforts
were made to support tn" stock at about nifty,
hut it broke through that price near moor and
fell to i9A with only feeble rally. Some Of
the sellers of stocks have avowcd as their mo
tive the probability that Governor Roosevelt
would refuse the nomination for the vice prcsi-
dcncy and governor would insist upon the
drastic enforcement of the franchise tax law.
