The Fflipinos are showing a disposition to

capital they hoped TO make out of their

MONDAY NIGHTS CONVENTION.
Anti-NOrris Democrats Will Choose
kansas City Delegates.


The anti-Norris democrats will hold their
convention at Grand Army Hall, opposite
Wizards Hotel, on Pennsylvania avenue,
at 1:30 pm Monday. 1t will be called to
order by Capt. ]. A Collins, who was yes
terday chosen to succeed Charles H. Tur-
ner, resigned, as chairman of the anti-Nor-
ris executive committee.
1t is expected by this committee that the
delegates will be those whose names were
on the anti-Norris tickets at the primary
election last Tuesday night but it was I'M
derstood today that considerable number
of these had determined not to attend in
such a capacity.
The anti-Norris men were much animated
today over the appearance in a New York
morning paper of a dispatch from Wash
ington positively declaring that Admiral
Dewey would go to Kansas City with the
entire District delegation solidly supporting
his candidacy. They claim that this is an
other proof that a conspiracy is in exist
ence for the purpose of defeating Bryan
and declare they are confident that the del
egat1on which their convention will choose
Monday night will be seated at Kansas City
They say no slate has been prepared but
that the convention Monday night will de-
eide upon the six men and the six alter
mates who are to make a contest against
the Norris delegation before the national
gathering.
1t is believed. however that the six dele
gates will be William Holmead Charles W
Slater, Cotter T. Bride, Herman Schulteis
w. f. Ryan and H. 3. Martin, or Can't ]

In an act Of Congress temporarily to pro-
vide revenues and a civil government for
Porto Rico and for other purposes, recently
passed by the United States Senate and
House of Representatives and Thursday
signed by the President Of the United
States. the name of that island was Off
cfally fixed as Porto Rico" 1t has been
alleged through the agency of certain mem
bers of the so-called board on geographic
names that President Mckinley had issued
his dictum that the name of the island
should be spelled Puerto. So far as l am
aware the signing of this bill by him is the
first official utterance on the subject. Good
