Of the Iowa delegation last evening.

announcement was made at caucus

what Mr.. Dolliver wanted them to do
about the matter.
The anwesr came straight from the

the delegates which made the contin-

delegation an actual Iact.

welt to Run.
Hawkeye Delegation Always Stood
Ready to Nominate the Rough

Mark Hanna's Judgement Accepted
Gracefully by All Candidates
Concerned.

Philadelphia, June Ex-senator Ham
ma last night authorized the following
statement:
The administration has had no cam.
didate for vice president. 1t has not
been for or against any candidate. 1t
has deemed that the convention should
make the candidate and that has been
my position thruout. 1t has been a free
field for all. In these circumstances
several eminent republicans have been
proposed :all of them distinguished men
With many friends.
II will now say that on behalf OF all
those candidates and ! except none,
ihat I have within the last twelve hours
been asked to give my advice. After
consulting with as many delegates as
possible in the time within my disposal,
l have concluded 10 accept the respon-
sibiity involed in this request. In the
present situation, with the strong and
earnest sentiment of the delegates from
all parts of the country for Governor
Roosevelt. and since President Mckin-
ley is to be renon.inated without dis
senting voice, it is my judgement that
Governor Roosevelt should be nominate
ed for vice president with the same
unanimity.
This announcement of Senator Hanna
was made after long consultation
With many leaders Of the party. He
called all the eWspaper men into one
of the rooms. where the consultations
had taken place and readit from manu-
script.
just before the statement was given
out. Chairman Odell of New York spent
n few minutes in the room, and when he
came out he said:
THE whole matter got into a snarl
ana was left to Senator Hanna to arbi-
trate. and his decision is that the vice
presidency should go to New York and
Roosevelt will be nominated"
The program is 10 have Iowa With
draw Dolliver and nominate Roosevelt.
Massachusetts will withdraw Long and
second the nomination. Probably other
states with candidates will follow suit
This will enable the convention to finish
lis business and adjourn today
Immediately following Mr.. Hanna's
announcement Of the withdrawal Of all
the other candidates and the nomina-
lion OF Governor Roosevelt for Vice
president by reclamation, Mr.. Deliver
authorized the following statement:
My candidacy has been wholly I'M
solicited; have not up to this mpment
spoken ore word seeking the nominal
ton toeven d member of my own d ele-
CATION. Tonight Mr.. Long, Mr. Scott
and myself placed our candidates. in
4 Mr.. Hanna's hands. to dispose of ms he
saw fit. 1t was greed that our names
would not be presented to the conyen-
| ton. and upon my request Mr.. LATE
| Young OF ny state will place Mr..
| Roosevelt's name in nomination in be-
\ half Of the nation.
II believe that the name of Governor
Roosevelt on the ticket will give it
greater strength and enthusiasm than
1.-the name Of any other man in Amer
lica."

The iYiddish Stage in England.

The prominence given at the present
time to everything Yiddish, and espe.
cialIy to the Yiddish theater, reminds
the Jewish World that, as long ago as
long ago as 1905, a Yiddish troupe of
players appeared in Berlin. The d.
rector OF the first company was fined
for producing a Purim play in Holy
Week, and the second head of the COM
pany was punished for a similar Of
Tense in 170S. In these two mentioned
years Purim occurred during Holy
Week. In the last quarter Of the
eighteenth century Dessau had a reg
ular Yiddish theater, and the Jewish
opera in the nineties of the eighteenth
century, in Amsterdam. had a great
reputation. The administrator, Eze-
chiel, was known as the Senator. and
the prompter was called Organ
Moses" and the prima donna was a
"Fraulein" Schnitzler. The company
produced Yiddish TRANSACTIONS of the
works of Mozart, Saleiri and Differs
