Question of Approving Chicago
Platform Causing Trouble
in New York. !

BALTIMORE, June 6.-The Democrats
of Mary land, in state convention held
here, selected delegation to Kansas
City and adopted platform which
leaves the delegates uninstructod but
declares that William ]. Bryan is the
choice of Democrats both in the coun-
ties and in the state Of Maryland. Inn
perialism is condemned, a large stand
ing army is deplored and it is suggested
that the Democrats everywhere lay
aside their differences on the currency
question and unite in an effort to "stay
the overwhelming progress of radical
errors in regard to the nature OF our
government inaugurated by President
Mckinley and the Republican party. :"
The following elegates-at-large were
chosen: Governor John Walter Smith,
State Treasurer Murray Vandiver, ex-
Congressman Joshua w. Miles and
Colonel l.. Victor Baughman.

FIGHT rs PREDICTED.

Money Question Causing Trouble in the
New York Democratic Convention.
NEW YORK, June 6.-The Democratic
state convention was called to order at
1l:45 by Frank Campbell, chairman of
the state central committee, who an
nounced the selection of John T. Nor
ton of Troy for temporary chairman.
Mr.. Norton, on assuming the chair,
attacked the administration of Gov
ernor Roosevelt, saying in effect that he
had won his way to the executive Office
by false pretenses; that instead of "do-
ing his own thinking" the governor had
"taken his orders from Senator Platt.
At the conclusion of Mr. Norton's
speech the roll of delegates was called
and then the customary resolutions, in
Guiding one providing for the reference
of all resolutions to committee, were
introduced and adopted.
Money Question Troublesome.
The question of endorsing the Chicago
platform is expected to cause trouble.
The first delegation to arrive brought
news that the majority of the leaders,
including Hill, Murphy and Cookers
representative, had decided that an en-
dorsement of William j. Bryan by in
structing the delegates to vote for him
at Kansas City, was sufficient endorse
ment of the principles enunciated at
Chicago in 1896, without having plat
form endorsement, and that conserva-
tive platform would be best.
Norman E. Mack of the Erie county
delegation said that if the platform did
not reaffirm the principles enunciated
at Chicago his delegation would make a
fight in the committee on platform and
if defeated there would present a
minority report to the convention and
fight for it on the floor of the conven-

WASHINGTON, June 6.-The two
words, ''all WE'LL" was all that United
States Consul Hay had to send to the
state department upon the occasion of
the occupation of Pretoria by the Brit
ish. Probably the consul, knowing that
the news Of Lord Roberts occupation
would reach the state department
through the regular news channels, felt
that it was only necessary for him to
assure the department that the United
States consulate had not been disturbed
in the critical period incident to the
abandonment of the Boer capital by it's
former defenders.

LONDON is CELEBRATING.

LONDUN 10 ECELEDhAIlNU. ~
Believes the Fall of Pretoria Ends the
Boer War. . .w.... &
LONDON, June 6.-At p. m, almost
eight months after the declaration Oh
war, Lord Roberts entered Pretoria.
While the commander-in-chief of the
greatest army Great Britain ever put in
the field was fulfilling the promise he
made to the Guards at Bloemfontein to
lead them into the capital of the Trans
vaal, England was celebrating the event
with wild enthusiasm. Throughout the
length and breadth of the country the
news spread like wildfire.
BASED on the recollection of recent
European wars when the occupation of
the enemy's capital signified the end of
hostilities, Lord Roberts terse telegram
was taken universally to mean the
practical finish of the war, which has
tried Great Britain's military resources
as they were never tried before.
In London the Mansion House and
the war Office almost instantaneously
became the centers for jubilant throngs.
Flags again appeared as if by magic,
and traffic had to be diverted through
other streets. Hatless and coatless men
and boys ran through the city streets to
see for themselves the bulletins an
nouncing the good news and to stay to
Join in the Thunder of Cheers
or add their voices to the joyful throngs
nnoon
Hats hoisted from thousands of heads
were waved in exultant hands and
shimmered like coal bed in the sun.
Old men on top of the orlnibuses and
aldermen from the windows of the Man.
sion House encouraged crowds to still
further efforts. The premature report
of the fall of the Beers stronghold did
not seem to have taken the edge off the
days celebration. Lord Roberts Six
Miles Spruit dispatch was hardly
printed by the "extras" before the
Union Jack of the war Office was hauled
up the flag staff and the brief message
was passed from mouth to mouth
Pretoria is occupied.
Those who had had chance to read
Lord Roberts account of the resistance
encountered Monday were at that mo-
ment commenting on the
Probability of a Fierce Fight
before the city was occupied and were
wondering at the Beers capabilities to
make such a determined stand when
Pretoria was hemmed in on all sides.
The pressure of General French, north
OF the Boer capital, came as a surprise,
and explained the commander-in-chief's
reticence anent the position of the ener-
getic cavalry leader. 1t was evident
that Lord Roberts delayed attacking
until all his column were ready to CO.
operate, but even when Lord Roberts
wired that this was accomplished, there
seemed possibility of some fighting,
SO when the next momentous dispatch
was given out it came as surprise.
Judging from Lord Roberts phrase
ology the occupation Of Pretoria was
not accompanied by any loss of life.
What has happened to the Boer forces
which SO insistently opposed the British
advance at Six Mile Spruit, can only be
surmised. But, presumably, they have
got away for the present at any rate.
The war Office has information that
one of the first things done by Lord
Roberts after the occupation of Pretoria
was to direct General French to relieve
the British prisoners confined at Water
val.
