straining Order At st. Louis.
ST. LOUIS, June 2S.-Y Yssterday passed
without striking incident so far as fric-
ton was concerned between the St.
Louis Tran sit company and their small
army of striking employees OF their
sympsthizers.
The coroner's jury, sitting in the in-
quests Oh the bodies Of Edward Thomas,
George Rine and Edward Burkhardt,
strikers who were shot and killed on
June 10 in the riot which took place in
front of the barracks Of the posse oomi-
tatus, returned verdicts to the effect
that the former was killed by deputies
in the discharge of their duties, and
that the two latter were killed without
justification by parties unknown to the
jury. The verdict Of homicide was rem
dered in all cases, but no persons were
held responsible.
The riot, according TO the jury, fol-
lowed the acts Of some unknown person
who broke window of a passing street
car. The examination of almost 200
witnesses failed to reveal the identity of
any deputy who participated in the
shooting or Of any striker who contrib
uted to the disturbances which precipi-
tated the riot.
In the United States circuit court
Judge Elmer B. Adams issued a tenn
porary injunction restraining William
D. Mahon, president Of the Amalga-
mated Association of Street Car EN-
ployes of America, and others, from in
terfering with the operation of the

BRYAN BACK IN LINCOLN.
Nebra.kan Talks of the Platform and the

Nebraskan Talks of the Platform and the
Vice Presidency.
LINCOLN, June 26.-W. j. Bryan re-
turned yesterday from his Wisconsin
fishing trip and visit at Chicago. He
will remain in Lincoln until after the
Democratic national convention. Mr..
Bryan was asked whether he could say
anything in regard to the platform to
be adopted at Kansas City. He replied:
mo one, of course, can say what Ian
guage will be used in setting forth the
party principles. But some idea can
be obtained as to the general tenor of
the platform from the platforms adopt
ed in the state conventions. As large
majority of the delegates have been
elected by conventions which resfirmed
the Chicago platform 1t is safe to as
sumo that the Kansas City platform
will reaffirm the Chicago platform and
will contain nothing which can be con-
strued as surrender or modification of
the platform on the old issues.
cit is equally certain that there will
be strong and definite plank against
the trusts. There is also no doubt that
the plank against imperialism will be
clear and explicit. Militarism will be
denounced and sympathy expressed for
the Beers. This much Is evident from
what has already taken place"
"Yeu have refused to discuss the vice
presidency heretofore Mr.. Bryan. Is
there any truth in the rumors that a
vice president will be chosen whose
views on the money question will be at
sractive to those opposed to the ticket in
leoeo''
.'It is true that have refused to dis
cuss the vice presidency, replied Mr.
Bryan, "and do not care to do so now,
further than to say that assume that
the candidate nominated for vice presi-
dent will be i'll harmony with the plat
form The vice president not only pre-
sides over the senate while the president
is alive, but assumes the Office of presi-
dent in case of the presidents death
and it is hardly probable that delegates
to national convention would write a
platform and then select for either place
on ticket man who would repudiate
the platform. No man worthy to be
considered for such an Office would ac-
cept a nomination on platform repug-
nant to his views on any important
issue"

Or. 8. G. swallow-Latter Expected TO
Lead on First Ballot.
CHICAGO, June 26.-s'There will be
polled not fewer than 1900 votes for
the Prohibition national ticket this fall.
The vote four years ago was approx
mately 10000, loss Of about 10000
from the vote of 1892 This loss was
due to the money issue raised in the
last campaign and will be regained,
with perhaps an increase this year" )"
With the national Prohibition conven-
ton one day distant Chairman Oliver
w. Stewart of the national executive
committee made the foregoing state
ment. According to the same authority
the Prohibitionists in convention this
year will leave the solving of economic
problems except those which in their
opinion can be solved by the abolition
of the liquor traffic to the other political
parties.
From the reports from the 35 states
which have held conventions the fol-
lowing digest of the platform was an
nounced: An unequivocal demand for
the legal abolition of the liquor traffic in
the United States. A demand for the
suppression of the army canteen. A
plank dealing with the expansion policy
of the administration solely to the ex-
tension of the liquor traffic to the colo
NAL possession. A tariff plank deolar-
ing that it is more important that the
American workingman should be pro-
tected from the evils of the saloon than
from the competition of foreign labor
and goods. A declaration to the effect
that trusts could not exist without sa-
looms, through which they are able to
corrupt the votes of the people. Referring
the question of woman suffrage back to
the various states, on the ground that
the question is one for determination by
states individually.
John g. Woolley and Hale johnson,
both Of Illinois, are strong favorites for
the presidential nomination. Rev DIR.
s. @. Swallow of Harrisburg, Pa, will
come before the convention with a
strong following and it is believed that
he will lead on the first ballot, with
/ fairly good chances Of success.
