intense heat was proStrating. and
Chairman Hanna not only cut short his
own speech but also those of others
and then dispatched business with the
utmost speed In those three hours
the convention nominated full state
ticket, adopted its declaration of prin-
ciples, indorsed Foraker as the Repub-
lican candidate for reelection as Unit
ed States senator and completed the
party organization for the campaign.
Case of One New Nomination.
OF the seven nominations only three
were new men and one of these-NIp-
pert. for lieutenant governor-was
nominated without opposition after
Lieutenant Governor Caldwell had de-
cIfned denomination The nomination
that caused the most comment was
that of Nippert. The State Anti-Saloon
League caused Caldwell TO run several
thousand behind his ticket in 1899,
and had vigorously opposed his nom-
ination. There were frequent calls for
Caldwell in the convention, but he
could not be induced 70 take the plat
form or even rise in his seat. Nippert
has been principal OF schools at Gin
cinnati and police prosecutor there
Like Caldwell he is liberal, and the
State Anti-Saloen League expresses its
displeasure because Nippert in the last
legislature voted against the Clark
local option bill Meantime the rep
resentatives Of the liquor interests are
very much displeased over what they
term the enforced retirement of Cald-
well.
Summary Of the Platform.
The platform is the first one to take
cognizance of the new questions COM
ing forward. and is stalwart Republi-
can in tone. After eulogizing the
party's achievements it declares that
tariff schedules which Will protect
American labor against the low wages
paid foreign labor must be maintained.
and reafirms all declarations hereto
fore made b. the Republican party in
favor of reciprocity: it favors navy ex-
tension and subsidies 20 the merchant
marine. and also the construction of a
United States canal across the isthmus
1t recognizes the right of both labor
and capital to combine when such COM
binatiOns are wisely administered for
the general good but declares COM
binations which create monopolies to
control prices or limit production an
evil; advocates the prompt re-enact-
ment of the Chinese exclusion lavr:
praises the soldiers and sailors. and de-
clares for their preference in civil pro-
motions: denounces the efforts south
to disfranchise the negro. and demands
legislation in congress against that
movement: declares against mob law;
indorses the foreign policy of McKin-
ley from the time we waged the ''war
forced upon the country" TO the Platt
amendment. and including the Chinese
imbroglfo. and closes with an indorse-
ment Of Nash. Foraker and Hanna.

indianapolis, June 26.-The discov.
cry has been made that the law re-
Quiring foreign corporations to incor-
porate in Indiana to the amount of
capital invested by them in this state
practically nullifies the antitrust law
of the last session of the legislature,
for the trusts, all of which are organ
lied in New Jersey, are paying the re-
quired fees to the secretary of state
and are receiving certificates from
that office authorizing them to do busi-
ness in this state.
Cannot Refuse a License.
The steel trust is expected to comply
with the law in a few days, and GER
titicate will be issued to 1t. When
asked if it were not his duty, under
the antitrust law, to refuse licenses to
trusts to operate in Indiana Secretary
Hunt said that the law does not make
it his duty to inquire whether or not
the corporation is a trust. In other
words, he feels compelled to authorize
any company which complies with the
law by paying the required fees to
transact business In this state, and
has no power TO inquire whether it is
or is not a trust

Cook. the distinguished lecturer and
author, is dead at his summer home in
Ticonderoga. He was born jar. 26,

lectures the harmony of the Bible with
science.
The well-known lecturer had been in
failing health for some time. Over
work had shattered his iron constitu-
ton and impaired his vigorous mental
power, and his friends had realized the

from the flood-stricken section Of West
Virginia gives as an explanation Of the
report first circulated that great
masses of human bodies were to be

there is a graveyard between North
Fork Junction and Keystone, which
towns are about a mile apart, and at
which point the storm was very severe.
This graveyard Is near the bank of the

gave up their dead and added greatly
to the number of bodies seen.

Out of Graves.

Bluefield, w. Va, June 26.-The
West Virginia flood situation has not
many new Developments, but it is au-
thentically stated that the loss of life
has been greatly 0verestimated. The
most conservative estimate obtainable
places the loss of life at about fifty, q
greater part of whom are colored min
ers and their families. A great many
more are missing and supposedsto have
been swept away. The Norfolk and
Western Railway company will lose, at
a conservative estimate, 100000, not
taking into consideration the delay to
traffic, etc. 1t will be four days be-
fore any traffic can be resumed. The
loss to the coal operators will reach
about 100000. outside of the delay at
the mines in loading, etc.
Plus This Million Dollar item.
The amount of property lost by pri-
vate parties is very heavy, and cannot
be estimated at this time 1t Is
thought it will reach the million dollar
mark. General Boggs and Colonel
Hudson, of Governor Whites staff. ar
rived yesterday to hold conference
with the general superintendent of the
Norfolk and Western railroad to ascer-
tain what assistance is needed by the
state authorities. Until traffic is re-
sumed and all communication opened
it will be impossible to estimate with
any degree of certainty either the loss
Of life or to property. One point re-
garding the death roll is that many
