Maria Rogan Says Her Victim Had
WrOnged Her.

Boston, June 30.-Goaded to desperation
by the deceit and indifference of the man
who, she alleged, betrayed her under
promise of marriage, Miss Maria Rogan,
a handsome Nova Scotia girl of %, to-
night dashed pint jar of vitrol into the
face of Frank L. Taylor, a dentist of 80
Forest street, Roxbury, terribly disfgur-
ng him and probably destroying the
sight of one eye. A part of the liquid
spattered into her own face and she too
will probably be disfgured for life.
Miss Rogan is employed as a clerk in a
confectionery store on Bolyston street,
where Dr. Taylor became a customer. Ac-
cording to her story, she was given to UNI
derstand that he was a single man and
their acquaintance resulted in an engage
ment.
A few days since she learned that lay
lor had a family in Roxbury. Late t his
afternoon Miss ROgan visited the public
library and as she entered the bull ling
she met Taylor. She told him of her dis
covery and appealed to him for assis-
tance in her trouble. but he turned a
deaf ear, absolutely refusing to assist her
in any way. In her desperation she drew
the jar containing the vitriol from its
place of concsalment and dashed the con-
tents in his face. The burning liquid
nearly crazed Taylor and his cries of
agony could be heard block away. Both
Taylor and Miss Rogan were taken to the
hospital. The latter is nomiDally under
arrest, an officer being detailed to watch
her at the hospital.

make to the country at the beginning OF
campaign that the chosen leader Is
man who four years ago was SO egregiously
mistaken that his party has been obliged
to abandon the policy which he held
then, and has continued to hold ever
since. was absolutely essential to the sal
walton of the country. After such a con-
fession it will be little less Ethan
absurd to offer him as Moses to lead
us out of the trust or the Philippine
wilderness with any hope OF his being
accepted The public will be certain to
conclude that a man so confessedIy
wrong on the issue of four years ago, is
not likely to be ri ght on the issues OF to
day. The troops won't follow with con-
idence a discredited general. These con-
siderations will, we belle We, exercise a
controlling influence when the conven-
ton gets together, and will result In
making free silver and the Chicago pla t.
form just as prominent in the deelara-
tions at the Kansas City conventio as
they were four years ago. There Will
also be this other consideration, tending
in the same direction, that to subordl-
nate silver in the platform would really
accomplish nothing in the way OF keep
ing it out Of the public mind 50 long as
Bryan was the candidate. What the cam
didate has stood for, what principles
and policies he has been Identified with
determine the position Of the party In
the estimation of the great majority OF
the voters far more than the declaration
of principles which the party puts forth
and which is read and remembered only
by a comparatively few people.

MURDERED SEVEN.
The Crime Of Which Philip NOrdIum
Has Been Convicted.

Stockholm, June 30. - The trial of
Philip Nordlum was completed today.
Nordlum, on May II last, as the steamer
Pinz Carl, On which he was a passenger,
was passing Quickisunt, murdered seven
men and wounded five others, a woman
and boy, after which he escaped in a
boat to Hoping and was captured the
following day at Eskilstavna, 81 miles
west of this city. The trial resulted in
the prisoner being convicted and SEN
fenced to DEATH

LIE KANsAs CETY PLArNoRnr

There are signs that there is to be more
of a fight over the platform OF the Kansas
City convention than has generally been
anticipated, A considerable part of the
delegates who have arrived are in favor
of subordinating free silver-not leaving
it out altogether of course-but putting
it down near the foot Of the resolutions.
The talk of nominating Hill also suggests
that there is a pretty strong sentiment
against floating tree silver from the mast
head for Hill is at heart gold man and
never concealed his opposition TO the Chi
cago platform of 1856. Another strongly
corroborating symptom of the presence of
insurgents is the pains Bryan is just
now taking to let it be understood that
he has lost none OF his love for the old
issue. Twice within week he has pub
licly announced that he believed that
the silver issue was as important as
ever and that it ought not to be rele-
gated to a subordinate position. 1t is
hardly probable, however, that
the movement will be success
full, because when the question
comes to be argued it will be shown that to
slight silver will be equivalent to
sighting the candidate. Bryan was the
product, the consulnmate flower, so to
speak, of the silver issue. If the eleva-
ton of silver to an equal place with gold
is MOI essential to the prosperity OF the
country then the foundation Of all of his
greatness is swept away. With the sill
yer theory discredited and disayowed he
