Editor Stead Says That Even a
HinOr Incident May Produce
War.

London, April %. w. T. Stead,
just returned from a long stay
in Paris, warns the English peo.
pie of the danger of conflict with
France.
1.-THE attitude of the French
people toward England, he says,
"may be defined as one of irrita-
ton, suspicion and determine
tion not to suffer further indig-
mites at our hands. They are
convinced that we harshly and
needlessly humiliated them over
Fashoda, and this was done in
the hope that it would force a
war. For the moment they
were obliged to su bmlt, for they
were not ready then to meet us,
but they resolved they would
never again submit as then.
"It is not that the French say,
we will fight England in the
autumn; rather thev tell them
selves: we must be so -prepar-
ed that when England tries tc
take advantage of US we can re.
sist her. Here you have two
great powers, neighbors, regard
ing each other with irritation and
distrust, and trifie may bring
this feeling to a head.
Suppose the Prince of Wales
had been in Paris instead oi
Brussels when Sipido fired a.
him; suppose the bullet had
reached its mark-what would
have followed? The acts of {
mad boy might have plunged u:
into the most terrible war o
modern times. A mishap to al
English tourist, a momentary
ebullitlon of feeling by a French
mob, anything may bring on thu
crisis. Opportunity can b.
found in a day, if opportunity i!
wanted.
"One great cause of peace be
tween England in the past NJ
longer operates; Germany no Ion
ger bars the way; public feelln:
in Germany is so hostile to Eng
land that an attack on US b,
France would be regarded SYM
pathetically by the people.
'The French military and ma
val authorities know their onl
chance of success would be
sudden raid on London. Th
first necessity would be 'com
mand of the Channel for twenty
four hours: Any naval exper
. will tell you it is possible wit
control of the Channel for tina
time; that France could land so
, 900 men ard 400 guns on ou
coast.
"Wehave now no military fore
equal to meet and defeat such a
army. Granted that the Frenc
fleet be destroyed or compelle
, to leave the Channel in a day {
two, the men with their CUR
would be on English soil. Thel
would be no way of stoppin
them from marching straight c
London.
Our barracks are full of me
; but they are mob, not an arm
= many of them are mere boy
u with neither guns nor munitiol
d of war to face such a raid.
4 Therefore, l say, Englar
! has barred its throa: and stretc
; ed it out for the knife of its en-
my. Modern European wa
will be decided quickly; if w
= came it would be finished befo
:. we could call the resources

took fifteen minutes to restore some
semblance of order. The spokesman
for Illinois, Representative James

Williams spoke rapidly and at his
mention of Adlai e. Stevenson, H.

the hall Applause, while vigorous

Minnesota.
A. A. Roesing then presented the
name of Charles A. Towne. Roesing,
tall and powerful, was heard in every
direction. When he pronounced the
name of Towne there was cheering
from the Minnesota delegation which
rose to it's feet waving flags in frantic
fashion.
The galleries joined the applause
with fervor but there was less en-

for division" he exclaimed, to the rap
turous approval of the great multitude
facing him.
The eloquent Daniel, of Virginia,
added his glowing tribute to the candi-
date, while former Governor Pattison
OF Pennsylvania, spoke for his state
and for the east Governor McMillin
oa Tennessee, voiced the wishes of his
state, which had furnished three
presidents" Hawaii, through its ma
tive delegate, John H. Wise, made its
first seconding speech in a democratic
national convention, and finally a
sweet-voiced and pleasant-faced wo-
rman alternate from Utah seconded the
nomination of Bryan in behalf Of the
state of Utah.
Then came the voting. State after
state recorded it's vote in behalf Of tie
Nebraska candidate, and gave him the
unanimous vote of all the states and
territories. The convention managers.
had already agreed that this was snf-
ifcient work for the day and the Vice
presidential nomination was allowed
to go over until tomorrow.
Next to the demonstration for the
party candidate, that greeting the an
announcement that imperialism was to
be the paramount issue of this cam
paign was the most spontaneous and
Significant of the day. Senator Till
man read the platform, and with meas
ured force brought out the fact that
Imperialism was now given first and
supreme place among the issues of
the party. That the delegates were in
complete sympathy with this express
sion was shown by the terrific and
long sustained applause lasting over
| twenty-five minutes. Following this

recognition, the applause being limited
to few minutes. 1t was regarded us
a significant showing of the sentiment
Of the delegates quite as convincing
as the terms of the platform they had
put forward.
Another stirring event of the day
was the appearance of Webster Davis,
former assistant secretary of the in
terror, under McKinley's administra--
tion, in a speech severely arraigning
the republican party for its lack Of
sympathy for the Beers and formally
announcing his allegiance to the dem

made that that state would yield TO

Hill conference was apparent. A tre-
mendous shout of applause swept
through the hall. Delegate Grady, one
j of the leaders of Tammany hall, had
already ascended the platform and as
he stepped to the front to address the

/ increased. His first sentence rang
through the building in trumpet tones
on behalf of the democracy of New
York, 81 present to this convention for
the nomination of vice-president the

effect was electrical. His words set
the convention in a frenzy of enthus
iasm. The scene which followed was
by far1shc' most tempestuous of the
session and the name of Hill echoed
and re-echoed throughout the hall
State standards were seized and held
aloft, the convention was canopied
with fiuttering flags and ihandker-
chiefs. Delegates and spectators
cheered until the great structure fair
ly shook with the noise when the
galleries became infected with the
enthusiasm Hill, meantime, worked
his way through the surging multitude
to the platform. AS he ascendod his
hands were eagerly grasped and he
was escorted to the seat of the per
manent chairman He asked Grady to
, yield that he might make statement
; but Grady declined. Mayor Van

ried to Hill and began an earnest con
