PARTY LEADERS
PASS THE LIE
Lively Scenes in the New
Jersey Democratic
Convention.
Mayor Seymour Of Newark
Nominated for the
Governorship.

TRENTON, N. j., Oct. Mayor Sey
mour of Newark was nominated on the
second ballot to-day as the Democratic
candidate for Governor in a convention
that at times was turbulent in the ex-
treme. State Chairman William Gurley
was permanent chairman. The first voting
showed that the Seymour and anti-Sey-
mour forces were almost evenly divided,
and had the anti-Seymour leaders been
able to concentrate their vote on a single
candidate they might have won. How
ever, there was strong undercurrent
among the delegates for Seymour.
The nomination of Mayor Seymour was
defeat for former United States Senator
Smith and his forces and was a victory
for E. F. c. Young, Robert Davis of Hud-
son County and Colonel E. L. Price Of
Essex County.
Ex-Judge Robert Woodruff of Mercer.

made feeling reference to the late Presi-
dent Mckinley, and when he finished
| speaking the band played Nearer, My

and sang the words of the hymn.
The first tumult Of the convention broke
out when both of the chairmen of con-
testing delegations from Essex County
tried to name the county's representatives
vention, had been in an uproar for some
| time and the lie had been freely passed
| Chairman Woodruff permitted E. W..
the democratic canQlQdt6 OIL three

mourites, to name the Essex representa-
| tives on the committee on credentials and
| order of business.
State Chairman william GurIey was
made permanent chairman without oppo-

issues. The following nominations for
Governor were made: Ex-Congressman
Thomas NJ. Ferre1 of Glosboro Mayor
James M. Seymour of Newark ex-Judge
Howard Carrow of Camden Senator
Christian Braun Of Passaic and James E.
Martins of Union.
The anti-Seymour people made an effort

| and succeeded to the extent of securing
| $50 votes for him on the first ballot, which
was only eight less than the number

| the scattering vote went largely to Sey-
mour and accomplished his nomination
! The first ballot stood: Seymour, 4S8; Fer

war, next called. He said that in obedi-
ence to orders from Captain Wise, who was
his commanding officer, he had proceeded to
the vicinity Of Santiago. arriving there on

great confidence in that individual. His in
structions were to report to Commodore Schley
that the Spanish squadron probably was in
Santiago harbor He fell in with the nying
squadron on the evening of May 26, the squad

TREATY BLOCKS
CABLE PROJECT
Cabinet Officers Talk Of
the Trans-Pacif1c
Line.
WASHINGTON, Oct. There we're five

WASHINGTON, Oct 1-There were five
of the eight members of the Cabinet pres
ent at to-days meeting Attorney General
Knox, Secretaries Long, Hitchcock and
Wilson and Postmaster General Smith.
The principal subject discussed was
that of a cable to Hawaii. Guam and the
Philippines. Propositions have been made
to lay a commercial cable from San Fran
cisco to connect these islands, and the
question under discussion was whether
under our peace treaty with Spain the
United States could authorize or in any
way encourage the laying of such a cable
by private parties.
Under a franchise obtained from Spain
some time before the late war the ex-
elusive right to cable connections with
the Philippines was secured by a foreign
corporation. Under the treaty of Paris
the United States obligated itself to pro-
tect all property rights in the archipel-
ago, and the question now at issue is
whether permission to land the proposed
cable at Manila or some other Philippine
port would be a violation of the terms Of
the Paris treaty.
The Attorney General will prepare a
statement for the President covering all
the questions involved.
