San Francisco early next week for Puget
sound, where it will be docked and
scraped before making its first trial run

naval men are now asking Experts be.
lieve that the Wisconsin will develop re-
cord breaking speed The engines of the
new ship and the machinery throughout
embody all of the best ideas that have
been conceived by naval engineers in re-
cent years. Furthermore, the ship has
been constructed at the same yards and
under the same superintendent as was
the battleship Oregon, which made the
record breaking run around the CONT
nent of South America during the Span

POPS ARE FOR BRYAN
State Convention Instructs
Delegates at Clay Centre.
w. F. GREEN IN EVIDENCE
He Makes a Speech Favoring
Jones for Vice President.


Wichita appeared to be about as much
Of the Populist state convention at Clay
Center yesterday as it was Of both the
Great Bend conventions. w. f. Green
made speech favering the nomination
of Golden Rule Jones of Toledo, for vice
president that was the talk of the con-
vention. A dispatch from Clay Center
says:
Kansas Populists in state convention
here today elected eighty-four delegates
to the national convention at Sioux Falls
and instructed them to vote solidly for
William ]. Bryan. The delegates then
adjourned and proceeded to the depot to
greet Mr.. Bryan, who came in from
the Wichita banquet on a special train.
Five thousand people escorted the Ne
braskan to the city square and cheered
him heartily as he spoke on the Issues of
the day.
In the convention during the vote on
delegates, George Easterwood of Kansas
City, said he had heard that Democrats
would spend $4,000 900 in the Kansas City
convention to beat Bryan. Judge Pfost
asked what the Kansas delegates should
do if there should be move to adjourn
the Sioux Falls convention until AFTER
the Kansas City conventional see who the
Democrats would name.
w. F. Green Of Wichita, favored nom
mating Samuel NJ Jones of Ohio, for
vice president. He thought with Toledo's
mayor on the ticket Ohio and Michigan
would be lost to the Republicans.
Nominate Bryan and JONES'" he said,
land your campaign is over"
The proposition to indorse Jones for
the second place on the ticket was making
rapid progress when Albert Griffin de-
clared that Jones was not eligible, be-
cause he is not native born citizen Of
the United States, and this ended the
talk in that direction.
'If you adjourn to Kansas City," Griffin
said, you will do nothing but what the
Democratic bosses tell you to do. The
Populist party is in danger. If you be-
come a tail to the Democratic kite this
year, the Populist party is gone forever"
Colonel ]. J. Donaldson ow Ccmfwy
Colonel J. ]. Donaldson of Chanute, ad-
vised the convention to tell its delegates
to go to Sioux Falls and adjourn the
convention to Kansas City. Then, said
he, let them do the best they can, and
may God help them.
The delegation was finally unanimously
instructed for W. J. Bryan.

SANTA f MAKES KICK
Notifies Manager Nelson of
of Street Railway
NOT TO PUT IN CROSSINGS
Especial Objection Is Made to
South Main

Day before yesterday the Santa Fe in
dorrned the street railway company that
they would not allow the patent cross
ing to be put in their tracks. The letter
applied particularly to the crossing on
South Main street which the Santa Fe
said should not be put in until the com
pany granted further permission.
Mr. Wilson replied that on the 18th Of
this month the patent crossing on South
Main would be installed eand that h
desired that the Santa Fe should have a
representative on the grounds to see that
the work was properly done.
The Santa Fe has made no further
move in the matter except to draw UP
a contract, which Mr.. Nelson refused to
sign.
It is not known just why the Santa Fe
people opened the question as to whether
the street railway people had the right
to put in crossings where they cross the
Santa tracks. Therefore there has been
no kind of an argument between the two
companies and Mr.. Nelson could not see
why the railroad should suddenly find
out that the matter was of such great
