San Francisco, Oct. 1.-The steamer
Curacao brings news of a storm which
was raging along the Mexican coast
when she sailed for the north. Sew
eral vessels were driven ashore,
among them being the German baril
Planet, which will be a total loss.
Capt. Parsons. of the Curacao, said:
I'VE just missed the worst of the
storm by running to Guayamas. The
following day Mazatlan was swept
and the wreckage was fearful. Houses
were blown down. roofs were lifted
trees uprooted, telegraph wires twist
ed and vessels swept from their moor

him.
do we want for president a man who,
before he took the oath of office. would
have to be put under bonds to keep the
peace? If Mr. Bryan Is honest in his
threats, then he is no fit man to dare to
aspire to the highest office in nation like
ours. If, as has been hinted in his behalf
more than once. he does not mean what he
says, then he is an arrant and blatant
demagogue, and on that ground alone ought
to be repudated in no uncertain manner
next November.
They say he is intellectually honest.
Well, If he is, he is woefully ignorant and
no wOefully ignorant man can become
president of the United States. 1t will not
be sufficient to beat Bryan by bare mar
gin. The things for which he stands ought
to be so decisively killed at the polls that
they will forever disappear as a disturbing
factor in American politics. Let us as one
man nightly rebuke those who have SO
dared to assault the rights o: liberty low

In his speech accepting the populist
nomination Bryan demonstrates that
the Chicago platform issues, especially
free silver and free riot, are so much
alive that there is no reason why any
one who voted for him in 1896 should
refrain from doing so in 1900. 1t seems
to follow that no one who on these is
sues voted against him in 1896 should
vote Sor him in 1900. But perhaps sill

Prof. Emery, of the North Carolina
experimental station, has come for
ward to help out the overworked hen.
He says that eggs of all sorts should be
sold by weight instead of by the dozen,
and shows the great injustice of SELL

per dozen, light Brahma hens eggs
weighing 134 pounds per dozen, and
the eggs of Leghorn pullets weighing
pound per dozen, for the same price.

GIVE suppose it will be conceded
that Mr.. Bryan knows what his party
stands for. and that he is the best wit
ness as to his own political faith. He
does not tell us what he would do. or
how he would seek to realize his prin-
ciples, but he leaves us in doubt about
what those principles are. He and his
party stand to-day for what they
stood for in 1896. and therefore the
men that vote for Bryan will assured

NO NEWS FROM MISSIONS.
Alarm Felt by Religious Societies in
New York.

NEW YORK, June 19.-Representativ-s
OF the various missionary societies in New
York which have workers in the insurrec-
tionary provinces of China. said today that
the situation there was felt to be very
grave, indeed. The continued absence OF
any news by cable and the inability of the
societies here to take practical measures
for the protection of their men deepened
the anxiety that has all along been felt
since the Boxer uprising started. At the
conference Of the Board of Foreign Mis-
sions of the Presbyterian Church. which
was continued this morning in the Assem-
bly, Hall of the Presbyterian Building. the
first prayer made was for the safety of the
missionaries in China.
Several ministers who have had expert
ence there were present DR.. ID. J. n.
GStrell. OF Pekin. when questioned con-
cerning the Boxer movement said:
This outbreak has been long in pre-
paration. 1t is an attempt on the part
of the lower ouders of Chinese to drive
foreigners out OF the country. 1t is quite
possible that people in high places may
be mischievously setting them on-may
be the real heads. The Boxers are blind.
wild. fanatical; they cannot see their way
clearly toward any practical results from
this uprising. but act as If they were
hypnotized. A friend has written me that
their actions resemble those of people il:
a trance. They expect to drive away the
foreigners by incantations and with the
assistance of tnterposition by their an
cient gods. The situation becomes the
more difficult and appalling when you
think of what is to come after these trou-
bles are over-for instance. in what man
ner viii China be divided among the
powers"

said. were in comparatively secure quar-
tiers. The Methodist missionaries. for in

When both factions got into the ,om-
mittee rooms the big apartment was
crowded. Mr.. Addicks had Walter II.
Hayes as his attorney. and Mr.. Hayes
went over the history of the last tour
years in Delaware politics and told the
committee that Addicks' followers had
4,000 voters behind them, while Colonel
Dupont's followers could only muster G 6.5CO
at the outside. He demanded that Mr..
Addicks should be recognized.
After Mr.. Hayes had finished Levi Bird,
of the Higgins Dupont faction, gave their
side of the question. telling what they
thought of Mr.. Addicks and his political
methods. After more speaking. the mem
bers of the committee began to fire ques-
tions at the members of both delegations.
At length the committee turned both dele
cations out, got down to business right
away. and voted to seat the Addicks dele
cation. The vote was So to 9. and the
Addicks men declared that this was a
victory which meant that they would con.
troll everything in sight in Delaware.

The Addicks delegates will elect General
Wilson's successor as national committee

though it was said tonight that he had not
decided whom should be selected.
After disposing OF the Delaware case the
Georgia contests in the First and Eighth
districts were taken up, and the action Of
the National Committee on them was sus-
tanned. Then the committee voted to ex-
clude Walter Burns. the Texas member,
during the hearing of the Texas cases. by
which the continuance Of +. II. Green as
national committeeman is threatened.
Then the Warburton- Wmberley fight In
Louisiana was taken up. j. Madison Vance
made the argument for the regulars. or

were placed on the temporary roll by the
National Committee. In all. twenty four
contests are to be heard.
