that President Kruger has appealed

THF REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

The National Republican conven-
ton met in Philadelphia Tuesday.
There were number of contests before
the committee, and the contest from
the Second Virginia district between
the Wise and BOWden factions, result
ed in defeat for Congressman Wise.
There was a hot time between Hanna
and Platt and Quay over the Vice
Presidential nomination, and it looks
as if Hanna will get the worst of it..
Geo. b. Cox, the Cincinnati boss, was
elected national committeeman from
Ohio in place of Senator Hanna. Sen
atOr Wolcott, of Colorado. was tempo
rary chairman, and Senator Lodge, of
Massachusetts, permanent chairman.
Up to the hour of going to press no
nominations had been made, but the
ticket will probably be Mckinley and
Roosevelt.
The ticket, it is now assured, will be
Mckinley and Roosevelt.
The selection of Roosevelt became a
certainty Wednesday night, when
Senator Hanna. chairman of the Re-
publican National Committee, came
out definitely in his favor. There was
grand rush to congratulate the New
York Governor. Representative Doll
liver and other leading candidates on
the ground decided to quit the race.
The boom of Secretary Long collapsed
with the withdrawal of Hanna's sup
port.
The situation was forced by com
bination of Senator Platt, ex-senator
Quay and National Committeeman
| Henry T.. Payne, of Wisconsin. For
this combination Hanna, in his fight
to prevent Roosevelt's nomination,
proved no match.
The national platform as adopted by
the convention declares for the prin-
ciple of the gold standard and records
''steadfast opposition to the free and
unlimited coinage of silver" 1t rec.
