THE CONVENTION FUND.
PhiiadeIPhin's Mayor Working Hard
to Rnisr the Amount.

PHILADELPHIA. March 17.-His Honor
Mayor Ashbridge was in talkatiye mood
this morning and the first thing he did
when he arrived at his office was TO die
tate to his sterographer a little matter
relative to the advantages that he hopes
viii accrue to the city when the Republi-
Csa National Convention is held here.
He also took advantage Of the occasion
20 tell about the liheralty, enterprise and
hospitality Of the city. and to express the
opinion that the remainder Of the guardn-
tee fund, about $4,000. would soon be In
hand.
The keynote Of the mayors talk was the
value that Philadelphia would gel from tae
advertisement due to the fact that the Ma
uOn1l Committee considered heg city OF
sufficient Importance in which % renoml-
nate William Mckinley and 10 reatlirm
those principles whi-h made the country
great and the people happy and prosperous.
The mayor has received a letter from
Chairman Joseph Manley. OF the sub-eN-
ecutivo committee Of the National Com
mittee announcing that he and the MEM
bors Of the committee would be here Thurs
day morning ....
Although nothing whatever has been
done toward securing permiss on TO use
for the Convention. 1t is Erobab. vii Mr..
Manley is here that the modifi plans de-
failing the alterations vii lie submitted TO
him for his approval. In connection rltl
this ID may be said that the burden rest
ing on the shoulders Of the cits's chief X
ecutivc will not be lightened with the col
lection OF $50 eco more.
Senator Hanna stat d emphstioally when
here some weeks ago that the understand
ing Of the National Committee was that
Philadelphia would make the rec ssary l.
teraticns in the buildings ard pay the bills
for the same.
\ conservative estimate OF the cost Of
this work is s25 600, so that in reality it
remains for the mayors committee to
scrape up a least s55 600 more. There is
a measure pending in the council which
provides an appropriation of $4,000 for
this purpose from the city treasury, but
when the measure was introduced the
newspapers and several societies set up
storm of protest against robbing the city
treasury for partisan political purposes.
and for some weeks nothing has been
heard Of the bill.

led TO the war with Spain. the result of the
war the appointment Of the Peace Com
missioners and their meeting at Paris, and
the result. he said there would have been
no war with ibe Tagals had the treaty been
ratified within ten days
He said that it was both wise and just
for the United States to pay $50 600 900 for
the islands and TO agree 10 send the Span
ish prisoners home and also to pay the
losses Of American citizens in Cuba. He
said the men who opposed the treaty may
have been honest in their convictions, but
in his judgment the responsibility for the
war is upon the press and the men who op-
posed the treaty and upon such men as
those who. in Philadelphia, recently ap-
plauded the sentiment that the President
was murderer.
Then Mr. Frye spoke Of our great surplus
OF agricultural aud manufacturing prod

and the opportunity and way Of developing

tuition and The Declaration OF Independence

checks similar 10 the one used by winters
and consecutively numbered. had been cut
from one Of the check books Mr. Moran

postted the check for collection in local
hank He learned from the latter that on
Friday Winters rendered him the check for
$50 and asked a loan OF $40 upon II. an"
