WEST VIRGINIA DEMOCRATS MEET.
Indications That the Delegates Will
Not Be Instructed

PARKERSBURG, W. Va, June 6-The
democratic state convention met here today
with the largest attendance ever known at
political gathering in this state. This was
due more to the interest in the United
States senatorship, state ticket and the
legislature, than to the presidential election
The convention was also reunion of fac
tons that has not been in harmony for
some years, and for that reason. it is said
the silver question will not be touched upon
Former Senator Camden, who presided at
the meeting here addressed by Bourke
Cochran four years ago took an active
part in this convention.
In calling the convention to order Mr.
Andrew J. Edminston of Weston chair
man of the state committee reviewed the
reverses of recent years. congratulated the
West Virginia democracy on being enthu-
siasticalIy united and arraigned the admin
istration of President Mckinley and Gov
Atkinson. After prayer by Rev. H. G.
Henderson of the Methodist Church South
former Senator Henry G. Davis was made
temporary chairman and r. E. Horner, edi-
tor of the Parkersburg Sentinel, temporary
secretary.
Chairman Davis. in his opening sneech
made plea for harmony and the avoidance
of extreme or radical declarations on which
there might be serious differences of opin-
ion. AS Senator Davis has been in cnn.
ference with the platform makers it was
believed that the resolutions would he
limited to state and local issues and the
PRONUNCIATION of national pledges without
instructing the delegates.

THE CIRCUIT >, oLEO BILL
IT'S CONDITION NOW SATISFACTORY
TO IT'S FRIENDS.
Representative GrOut Says Its Pass
age Is CeEtain Next
December.

The condition in which the Grout bill is
left by the fixing of certain date, De-
cember next, on which the House will
act on the bill appears to give general sat
isfaction to the friends of that measure.
In answer to an inquiry by Star reporter
today as to how he regarded the result
and the present status of the bill. Repre-
sentative Grout said:
1.-The rule fixing December 6. the third
day of the next session, was in amend
ment of the one introduced by me-the
committee only filling the blank date-and
is. on the whole, quite satisfactory. The
securing of a favorable report from the
committee was tremendous victory, and
the adoption of the rule fixing the date for
consideration practically completes the tri-
umph of pure butter The friends of the
bill only lacked nine or ten votes Of a two
thirds majority of the whole House on a
former resolution of inquiry as to the con-
stituent parts of oleomargarine, and there
is no question as to the strength of the
bill in the House.
Got 1t Before the House.
THE success or failure of the bill, in
brief. depended on getting 1t out Of COM
mittee and before the House. This we
cid after six months of the closest and
hardest fighting in my congressional ex-
warm and uncertain one from start to
finish. and the dairy interests Of the coun-
try won against as heavy and potent in
fuences as were ever exerted in Congress
for the defeat Of any measure ever before
1t. The victory, therefore, being so hardly
won. Is all the more gratifying.
the measure was reported to the House
so late that the remainder of the time was
taken up by special orders, and, although
energetic efforts were made to secure con-
sideration, 1t was found impracticabIe at
this time. On the whole, no particular adj
vantage would be gained by the passage
through the House of the bill at this ses-
sion, as, Of course. there would not be
time for 1t to pass the Senate. Therefore,
1t might as we'll rest in the House as in
the Senate until December. A very large
and immovable majority of the House is
on record and committed in favor of the
Dill. and its passage is certain as the
arrival of December next
The many friends of the measure, both
In and out of the House, who have la
bored so continuously and earnestly in its
behalf have every reason to congratulate
themselves because of the fact that the
end of their efforts Is in sight"

LONDON, June II, 4 a. m.-There
is no confirmation of the reported de-

the killing of the German minister,
Baron Won Ketteler, nor of the latest
report of fighting between the British
and the Chinese. Dispatches from
Shanghai dated last evening state that
Admiral Seymour's force is in a tight
place between Lang Fang and Yung
Sun with enormous masses of soldiery
in front, while the boxers with more
soldiery are cutting the railway in the
rear. The column is reported short of
provisions and water.
According to a special from Vienna.
1t is stated in diplomatic circles there
that the question of Intervention is
under discussion by the powrse. 1t is
proposed that Japan shall act as man
datory of the powers and re-establish
order in Pekin and elsewhere. This.
it is said, emanates from England and
is supported by Germany and Austria.
but it is doubtful if Russia and
France will agree to the proposition.
