ADDRESS TO POPULISTs.
The MiddIe-Of-the-ROad Are
Warned Against Fusion.

Chicago, Aug. 29-By order of the Ma
tional Committee of the Peoples Party
CMiddle-of- the-Road) Chairman Joseph A.
Parker and Secretary James E. Mcbride
to-day issued an address to the Pooulist
voters of the United States
The address says that from its incep-
ton those Populists wing have opposed
fusion have contended that the fusion
movement was designed to destroy the
Peoples Party organization and 10 de-
liver the honest Populists of this country
to the organized Democracy. 1t declares
that to-day there are many so-called fu-
sion leaders posing as Populists, who ore
acting simply as decoys 10 draw true Pop
ullsts into the Democratic organizatio
with the knowledge and cooperation OF
the Democratic managers. The so-called
fusion party 1t continues, to-day stands
without a nominee who ever pretended 10
be a Populist; practically without an or
ganization and without following among
the people, save in four or five close
states.
I'VE have declared that the independent
PEOPLES party shall continue TO live free
from disreputable alliance with the party
of Jones and Croker, on the one hand. and
the party of Hanna and Quay on the
other. 1t calls on true Popullsts TO repu-
date the attempt of fusionists to deliver
them over 10 organized Democracy, in re-
return for a few offices, and calls on them
to roll up a vote for Barker and Donely
which will place the party on the highway
to victory in the future.

NO SPEED PREMIUM.
Did Not Cost More TO Have the Ala
bama Duiit tn Run Fast.

Washington. Aug. 29.-The navy depart
ment has received an official telegram, con-
firming the press reports OF the success
ful speed trial Of the Alabama. A dispatch
to the department from Admiral Rodgers
said that the Alabama had made an aver
age of II. knots. This was supplemented
by a message from Chief Engineer Perry,
saying: Alabama easily made II knots
without driving or mishap of any kind. ,
The easy manner in which the Alabama
exceeded her contract speed by a full
knot leads the department to believe that
driven at her full capacity. she might ex-
ceed her trial by a considerable fraction.
There was no speed premium paid on the
Alabama, and her builders probably felt
that It was useless TO force her TO the ut
most limit at the risk OF a probable mis-
hap to the machinery.
The Iowa, which is the only battleship
50 far that has exceeded the speed of the
Ala bama, made 17.O4 knots and the speed
premium spaid on her by the department
amounted to SIT 420.

WILL BE NO ENDORSEMENT.
Afro-American Council Decided
Against Introducing Politics.
Pritchard May, or May Not,
Be Heard.

indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 29.-It Is stated
tonight that there will be no indorse-
ment of the national administration by
the National Afro-American Council. AMI
that all politics will be eliminated from
the formal action of the convention. The
resolutions make no reference to politics.
The address to the country was reported
to the convention by the committee to-
night and action on it went over until
tomorrow. The session tonight was
lively. and several scenes occurred.
Trouble was started to-day when Bish-
op Walters announced that he had in
vited representatives of the two political
parties to address the convention, and
that Senator Pritchard of North Carolina,
would speak for the Republicans later.
Delegates demanded on what authority
this had been done. George White of the
Second Congressional North Carolina Dis
trict, charged that, at the Raleigh State
Convention, he had heard Senator Pritch-
ard express sympathy with any move
ment that would cut down the representa-
ton in those districts of the state where
the negroes were in the majority.
White charged that the Senator on that
occasion promised his support to any leg
islation that would bring this about. The
convention appointed a committee to
await upon the Senator tomorrow, when
he arrives, and ask him If he ever ex-
pressed such views. Upon his answer Will
depend whether he speaks.
The address to the country protests
against the notification of the suffrage
provision of the federal constitution by
Nfieeiesipnt South Carolina North Caro
lima and Louisiana and calls upon the
national government to see that the fed
eral compact is not thus violated The
address says: THE interests Of the white

KNIGHTS AT BELLE ISLE.
Uniform Rank Held Its Inspection
on the Island-Gen. Carnahan
Has Been Reelected.

Detroit. Mich, Aug. 29.-Belle Isle was
invaded to-day by the Pythian army in
full force, which held it's biennial inspec-
tion and review of the uniformed rank
on the island. The wea her was clear.
The entire command of 5000 knights re-
turned to camp in good spirits and with
out special fatigue.
Sessions OF the Supreme Lodge were re-
sumed to-day, and some of the reports
of the COMMITTEES were heard, Supreme
Chancellor Sample will announce
the reelection by the Supreme Lodge of
James r. Carnahan of Indianapolis as
major general commanding the uniform
rank. Gen. Carnahan founded the uniform
rank more than 20 years ago and has
ever since been its commander. His sal
airy IS $i,5G3 per year.
Y 1t appears 10 be cones ded that Supreme
Chancellor Fethers of Wisconsin will be
elected supreme chancel llor, according to
previous custom instead of re-electing
Supreme Chancellor Sample.
TWenty-four past grand chiefs of the
RathbOne Sisters were to-day admitted
to the sessions of the supreme body of
the women's orders, but without the
right TO vote.
The reports or off1cers were read ana
referred.
The Pythian Sisterhood Supreme Lodge
spent most of to-day's session in discuss
ing the recommendations made in the re-
ports of officers.
The Grand Electrical and Fire Works
Parade" of the knights of KhOrassan to-
night, which was announced as the spec
tacular feature of Pythial week, resulted
in a vast amount of confusion. The police
had made no arrangements for clearing
the streets along the line of march, so
the picturesquely clad Khorassans could
not make much of a success of 1t.

CABINET IN LONG SESSION.
tion-Russia's Communication
Given Consideration.

Washington, Aug. 49.-The longest cab
met session held in years, adjourned at
$50 this evening, after having been IN
session, with the exception of an hours
recess at 1:9O. since 10 o'clock in the morn
ing.
The session was devoted to the consid-
Grafton of the diplomatic problems which
have arisen in connection with the Chi
nese situation, as a result of the position
taken by the Powers, and it eventuated
in the formulation of document for
transmission abroad. That this document
is of supreme Importance defining the DO
sjtion of the United States is assumed
from the prolonged and careful attention
with which il was prepared and consid-
cred, but no glmmer of light is shed upon
its exact character.
The st. Petersburg dispatch to London,
containing the assertion that Russia al
most Immediately will notify the Powers
that she considers the relief of the Pekin
legations as the final accomplishment Of
the military task of the allied forces, u
was learned late tonight, is the phase
ing the most attention from this govern
ment a this time. That assertion, in
ferentially, carries with it the impression
that the Russian government is of the
opinion that. the legations having been
relieved that government should with.
draw it's military forces from Pekn. and
thinks the other allies should do likewise
No official information along these lines
however can be obtained here, although h
the recent flying visit of the Russian
charge, Mr.. De valiant. from Cape May
TO Washington, is believed 10 be indicative
that a communication of this character
has been received from the Russian gov
ernment
