Summit county's delegates returned
from Columbus this morning, having
had the satisfaction Of having helped
TO defeat the slate that had been set
up for the convention to ratify.
One OF the prominent features Of the
convention was the Unan:mity with
which the delegates from Northern and
Central Ohio rebelled against every
thing that was wanted by the Hamil-
ton and Montgomery county contin-
gent, headed by 40" Dowling. The
opposition to this faction was not lin
tied TO the contest for members Of
the Big Four, Ii extended to the
nominations for the state officers. A
majority OF the delegates found out
what the Cincinnati people wanted
and then took pleasure iu disappointing
them.
Summit county had prominent,
part in the contest. Ii was her vote

ARE PAYING
THE CLAIMS
Sanitary Fire Losses
Being Settled.
THE FORTUNATE INSURED
Companies Having no "CiviI Author
tiles" Clause 0isbursng
Gold.
(From Saturdays Daily.)

The fire insurance companies are
paying up the claims of policy holders
who lost their property in the gen.
eral destructive fire Of January 20 last.
A number OF discontlnuances have
been filed in many of the cases on
record in the Circuit Court, and the
reason for this Is because the insur-
ance companies believe that it will
pay them in the long run to make
peace with their patrons and look else
where for their reimbursement.
Attorney f. M. Brooks, who has filed
about fifteen fire insurance claims in
the Circuit Court, said yesterday that
the companies were willing to pay up
the claims If the suits were discon-
tinued. The agents of the Royal, New
Zealand and the Hamburg Bremen are
among those who have compromises
They are paying dollar for dollar
on the amount of the claims
presented by my clients" said Mr.
Brooks, together with interest from
two months after the fire occurred
The fire insurance companies that do
not have the New York standard form
of clause which states that insurance
companies are not liable for fires oc-
curing directly or indirectly by order
of the civil authorities, are the ones
that have agreed to pay. Those COM
panies who were fortunate enough to
have that clause inserted in their pol
icies when the papers were made out,
are free from liability.
THE ,Rig fire of January 20 was in
directly Caused by the original order
which was to the effect that certain
buildings in the vicinity of Kaumaka-
pill Church should be burned to the
ground. The fire spread, got beyond
the control of the firemen, and the
whole of Chinatown was burned, as
every one knows.
"The payment of these claims means
much to my clients. Almost without
means after their property was de-
stroyed, and depending upon their in
surance money, which was denied
them for such a long time, they were
compelled to borrow money, pay in
terest, and found themselves generally
in the nole. Now that the end of the
year is near at hand this money comes
in very handy in paying up their
bills"

A HORRIBLE DEATH.
Japanese Crushed Under Heavy Ma
chinery at Eleele.

, A Japanese laborer at Eleele met
with a horrible death on Tuesday at
the wharf. A six-tOn piece of ma
chinery which was being loaded on a
ear was left standing upright, having
been discharged from the cargo of the
Niihau on her last trip. The railroad,
to which it had been turned over, had
sent down a car for it's removal.
The Japanese stopped down beside
the upright piece of machinery to fix
some gear, and while he was STOPPING
over, it tipped over and fell upon him,
crushing his body fiat, and mutilating
him beyond all recognition. Pieces of
his body were carried away in sack.

BRyAN'S THREAT.
Made In 1906, 1t Stands Good
This Year.
He DECLARED so AT MILWAUKEE.

Congressman Dookory, of Missouri, Prom
ises Free Silver In Case of Bryan's
Election - Voters VIII Do Well to
Look Facts 10 the Face.
William j, Bryan, in his speech at
Knoxville, Tenn, on Sept. 16, 1896,
said "If there is any one who believes
the gold standard is a good thing, or
that 1t must be maintained, | warn
him not to cast his vote for me, be-
cause l promise him it will not be
maintained in this country longer
than | am able to get rid of it."
If the country believes Bryan,
those who dread silver supremacy on
the day after his election-should that
calamity occur-will take him at his
word, and begin to unload. The ex-
perience of disaster to the country
after the election of 1892 will repeat
itself. This will not be politics, but
business; and the old rule of every
man save himself will be In full oper-
alton, regardless Of partisanship.
Mr.. Bryan is not so open in his sill
yer utterances this year as he was in
1886; but in his speech at Milwaukee
on Saturday, Sept. 8, he declared as
follows: "The position of the Demo-
cratic party on the money question is
known. 1t has undergone no change.
The same Democratic platform that
declared in fovor of the restoration of
bimetalism also declared that, in this
campaign, the restoration OF the prIn>
ciples of government found in the
Declaration of independence was the
paramount issue of the hour"
The same Democratic platform, too,
declared twice for 16 to 1 silver, while
the silver Republican and Populist
platforms, upon which Bryan is just
as much candidate for President to-
day, make the silver standard the Im>
mediate ISSUE" and thus having pre-
cedence of the simply paramount.
Bryan's Milwaukee declaration--thus
reaffirms his declaration at Knoxville,
Tenn, that "the gold standard will not
be maintained longer than / am able
to get rid of it." Thus every Bryan
vote is vote to get rid of the present
prosperity conditions,
The program of carrying the coun-
try for free silver by means of the bug
aboo of imperialism is well understood
by the Democratic leaders. Represen-
tative Dockery, Of Missouri, Demo-
cratic leader in the House, and candi-
date for governor of his state, said
in speech at Lebanon, Mo-, a Few days
ago, that the first thing that Bryan
will do after he is inaugurated Presi-
dent will be to write an invitation over
the door of every mint in the United
States to silver and gold to come and
be coined free, without limit, at the
ratio OF 16 to /. That's for the South
and West. In the East these things ara
| kept concealed.
