The small coterie Of Tory Unionists

Dublin's turgid wave of toadyism just

Nominated Second Time as Candidate of the
Democrats for the High Office
of President
Graphic Description of the Wild Demonstra-
tions That Followed the Naming
of the Candidate.

Staff Special to the Globe.
KANSAS CITY, Mo, July b.-William
Jennings Bryan was tonight nominated
+ a second time as the candidate of the
Democrats for the president Of this land
under circumstances which, If not as
dramatic as followed on his "Crewn
Of Thorns and Cross OF Gold" shibboleth.
were not lacking the least in theatrical
effects, ingeniously conceived and care
fully executed.
crowd of $1,000 assembled to view the
leaders Of the gold and silver Democrats
cross swords in sharp debate, were
astounded to find that the debate was off
and that after fighting all night the reso-
lutions committee had been able to agree
on platform that would suit ALL 1t was
| regarded as q splendidly executed plat
form, and the crowning triumph Of its
| conception, perhaps, was the selection of
B. R. Tillman, of South Carolina, to read
| 1T in place Of Chairman Jones' Senator
| Tillman Is an impressive personality In
spite Of attributes not usually called love-
| ly, In ringing tones and with an emphasis
| In thorough sympathy with every senti-
ment expressed in the long platform, the
| Southern pyrotechnlst commanded un-
! divided attention and added in no small
measure to the enthusiasm Of its recep-
tion. When the anti-ImperiaIism plank
was reached by Tillman with marked
emphasis, the crowd cut loose and for
half an hour there was such another
demonstration as marked the mention of
Bryans name Wednesday night. 1t was
clearly the climax Of the day and of the
convention and the two workmen who
had been perched on the roof trusses all
day to break out Old Glory at the critical
moment were signaled not to wait for
the nomination of Bryan.
simultaneously almost thousands OF
flags bearing anti-imperialistic notices
were distributed on the main floor. In a
moment a thousand flags fiuttering added
to the life of the scene Marching and
countermarching the state banners, the
Hawaiian and California flags and what
not were to be seen in the parade about
the hall. 1t was half an hour before
Tillman could resume his reading, and
he was twice thereafter interrupted by
demonstrations.
When the resolutions had been adopt
ed, and nominations were proceeded with,
a similar demonstration followed the
close of Oldhams tribute, and then a
few minutes later the crowd resumed its
habituaI cries for HILL" and Hill re-

The correspondent of the Daily Mail
at Shanghai, telegraphing Under date Of
July 8, l2:15 p. m, says that he believes
that when official information comes re-
garding Peking 1t may include news of the
outraging of English women and tortur-
ing of children. 1t may be taken for
granted, he asserts that all foreigners
in Peking have been wiped out.
THEIR CASE HOPELESS
Tatoi Yu admitted to a correspondent
that the case Of the Europeans in Peking
is utterly hopeless in his opinion. He be-
lieves that if they have not yet been
massacred 1t is only matter of hours
before they will be.
A letter brought by courier from Pc
king, received in Shanghai on July 4,
says the Boxers are gathering huge
forces around Peking, reinforcements ar
irving from all directions This is taken
to indicate a concert of .aciiorr among the
mobiles, who are believed to have thrown

All Information Obtanab Tends Confirm That the Horrible
Story of Murder Is True
Chinese Emperor Dead by Poison Hands Prince Tuan and
Empress Dowager May Suffer Like Fate
Photo BY RicA

LONDON, July 6, 2:30 a. m.-The story
that all foreigners in Peking were muir
dered on June 80 or July appears to be
circulating simultaneously at Che Foo,
Shanghai and Tien Tsin. Yet, as it is
not confirmed by official dispatches and
is not traceable to the southern viceroys
who are still in certain connection with
Pel1ing, there is a basis for the hope that
1t is untrue.
Cautious observers at Shanghai recog-
nize that even Though these reports are
rejected, events in Peking must be gal
Looping to a tragic end.
Correspondents of the Express at
Shanghai gathered details from Chinese
sources, which pieced together relate that
when the foreigners ammunition was ex-
hausted the Boxers and imperial troops
rushed the British legation and poured
into the court yard with fanatical fury
The foreign troops were so hopelessly
outnumbered that their fate was certain
The moment the mob broke in the court
yard was converted into a shambles
Others Of the invaders spread into the in
terror Of the building. One correspondent
adds:
1T is only left to hope that in the final
rush Of the murderous hordes the men
Of the legations had time to slay with
their own hands their womenkind and
children. The Chinese are whispering
the terrible story under their breaths
Their attitude towards foreigners in the
streets has undergone a strange change
The demeanor of the better class of
Chinese is one of pity rather than Of
triumph. Even the rabble in the native
quarters are silent.
Something Of this eliminating tragedy
in the ghastly history of recent events in
Peking seems to pervade the very atmos-
all our hopes. The consul fears the report
is too true and the Chinese officials do
not appear to seek reasons for a denial"
POISON OR SWORD.
Two Manchus, who have arrived at
Shanghai certify to the truth of the
statement that Prince Tuan visited the
palace and offered the emperor and the
dowager empress the alternative of pois-
on or the sword. The emperor, they say,
took poison and died within an hour. The
dowager empress also chose poison but
craftily swallowed only portion OF what
was offered her and survived On the
same day the Chinese customs bureau
was destroyed Sir Robert Hart, the in
spector of customs, and his staff escaping
to the legation.
Intense indignation is felt in Shanghai
against the action of the powers in re-
straining Japan from sending an army to
Picking Immediately. The powers are ac-
cused as being as guilty of murder as are

sidered possible vice presidential timber,

Friends of Vice Presidential CandI-

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July 5.-The most
important development in the vice presi-
Dental situation tonight was the an
nouncement that when the roll of states
is called tomorrow for the nomination of
candidates for vice president Alabama
will yield to Florida, and Hon. R. D. Nc
Donald, of that state, will place Eliot
Danforth, of New York, In nomination.
This programme became known during
the session of the convention tonight
and was discussed by quite a number of
the leading men IN different delegations.
Another development was the unques-
toned popularity of David B. Hill for
the place, as manifested in the conven-
ton, and the desire expressed in many
quarters for his selection.
The selection, however, is complicated
by the fact that New York stands in the
way of the selection of either Hill or
Danforth. Hill does not want the nomi-
nation, and will take measures to pre-
vent his selection. Danforth does want
1t, and would be nominated If New York
would present him. But the convention
will not force a candidate upon New
York against the will of the delegation
from that state. This probably will pre-
vent the movement for Danforth from
amounting to very much. 1t is pretty
generally felt that this movement was
inaugurated for the purpose of compli-
menting Hill and rebuking Croker for
the manner in which Hill and his candi-
date, Danforth, were treated under the
direction of Mr.. Croker.
But the large state delegations will not
lend themselves to any such proposition,
for they are seeking a New York candi-
date whom New York will present with
seriousness and who will strengthen the
ticket.

George Fred Williams at the morning
session They were: George Fred VII

w D. Oldham, OF Nebraska, who was
to present the name of Mr.. Bryan to the
convention, was waiting by the chair
mans desk, and as the chairman of the
Alabama delegation resumed his seat he
came forward and, with a few grace
ful words, expressed his appreciation Of
the favor extended by Alabama in sur
rendering it's time to the state Of Mr..
Bryan.
Mr.. Oldham is man of about fifty
years of age, something under middle
size, with a Slight forward stoop. His
face is clean-shaven and his black hair
was closely cropped. His voice IS clear
and pleasant, and carries far; his delivery
was agreeable, and throughout his ad-
dress he received the closest attention OF

The interruption caused Mr. Oldham to

his swing again and uttered an eulogy OF

force. AS he proceeded he raised both
hands over his head and spoke with
slowness and energy that caused his voice
to penetrate into every corner Of the hall.

his hands lower with each word until the
last had been uttered, when he brought
them up with a sweep, but quicker than
his motion was the answering cheer that
swept across the convention. 1t was 4
