BRITISH TAXES CONTINUED.
The Sinking Fund, However, to be Re-
 sumeJ.

London, June 4.--Sir Michael Hicks
 Beach made his final statement in the
 house of commons tonight. The chan
 celor of the exchequer said that the whole G40,000,OO0 C$200, GOO 000) provided for in the budget for the prosecution of the war would be needed to effect the
 demobilization and the transportation of the troops in South Africa, to move Boer prisoners from the various concen- tration camps and to furnish garrisons for South Africa. Sir William Vernon Harcourt liberal, asked Sir Michael the number of these garrisons. The chan cellor of the eXchequer said it would be premature to answer this question now, but that he had grounds for hoping that in the course of few months large garrisons in South Africa would prove unnecessary. The chancellor said Ee was glad to say he could dispense with the additional G15, 7500O0 (S7S, 75O,- 000) which he had asked for when the new loan was authorized by the house. He said he proposed to continue the new taxes for the present, but he asked the house to resume the sinking fund as the best step towards re-estabishing the credit of the country.

PROTIDENCE TROLLEY STRIKE.
Seven Hundred Men Out-Cities and
 Towns Suffer.

Providence, June 4-With 700 men idle in a total of 1,200 the close of the first day of the strike of conductors and motormen on the United Traction and Electric company finds three cities and a dozen or more towns within a radius of sixteen miles of Providence seriously inconvenienced, due to the lack of ade- quate transportation facilities.
 During the morning hours more than half of the equipment was in operation, but during the afternoon the number of cars operated rapidly decreased.
 In Pawtueket and Central Falls the tie-up was nearly complete, not more than two cars at a time in each city be- ing in operation.
 In the Pawtuxet valley equally bad conditions existed. The second shift of men for the night service brought some gain for the strikers, and a number of the suburban lines were either wholly or partially abandoned.

INDIANA DEMOCRATS.
Refuse to Endorse Bryan and Kansas
 City Platform.

Indianapolis, June 1.-The democrat tic The gathering was remarka ble for its lack of discord candidates for all but three of the offices being chosen by ac- clamation. The hardest fight on the floor of the convention was for the of- flee of secretary of state, the struggle being between Schoonover and Ballou While there was no fight in the con- vention proper there was a battle royal in the meeting of the committte on res olutions. A number of the friends of William J. Bryan were in favor of the insertion in the platform of plank en- dorsing him and the Kansas City plat form. The majority of the committee was against any such endorsement.
 The Philippine plank also created much discussion, It was only after hours of argument that the plank was agreed upon in the form in which it appears in the platform.
 Following are the nominations.
 For attorney general-William E. Stillwell of Gibson county.
 For state auditor-James P. Riggs of Sullivan.
 For state treasurer-Jerome Herff of Peru.
 For clerk of Supreme court-Adam Heimberger
 For superintendent of public institu- tions-Samuel s. Scott of Jeffersonville.
 For state tatistician-Myron D. King of Marion county
 For state auditor-E. Bassett.
 For judge of the supreme court-T F, Howell of South Bend
 The platform follows:
 We, the delegates of the democratic party of the state of Indiana, in con- vention assembled do hereby adopt the following declaration of principles, and appeal to our fellow citizens, who agree with these principles, to cooperate with us in the coming campaign:
 We denounce the republican party for it's surrender to and alliance with the trusts, and we favor such legislation as will suppress and destroy all trusts or combinations to control the production and the price of commodities
 We denounce the Dingley tariff law as the breeder of trusts, and demand that tariff duties shall be levied for the purposes of revenue only, and limited by the needs of the government hon. estly and economically administered.
 We condemn the republican party for to give the interstate com merce commission power to enforce it's decisions against discrimna tions in railroad rates, which determinations have been a potent cause of the crea- ton and maintenance of trusts, and we demand that the commission be given power to suppress this evil.

TOLCANOS AND ES
 DISCUSSED IN SENATE.
Chairman Morgan of the Canal Conn mittee Satisfied That Menace IIas Been Lessened by Recent Disturba n ces-- Than Fnnama-Free from Seismic Disturbances.
Disturbances.

Washington, June 4.-Discussion of the project of constructing an isthmian canal was begun by the senate to-day. Mr. Morgan of Alabama, chairman of the committee on interoceanic canals, opened the debate, speaking nearly three hours. A considerable portion of his speech was devoted to an eXamin- ation of the recently suggested danger to the Nicaraguan route of seismic dis turbances.
 MT Morgan said his committee did
 Mir. Morgan said his committee did or earthquakes as either probable or serious, either as to the Nicaraguan or Panama route. After the volcanic and seismic disturbances of recent months, he was satisfied the danger to an isthmian canal had been lessened materially.
 Mir Morgan declared that Nicaragua had been free from seismic disturbances during the recent general disturbances. but the region about the Panama canal had been disturbed seriously by earth quakes. He quoted Minister Merry as saying that only enemies of any canal used the volcanic or earthquake argu ment against any canal route.
 MT Morgan again referred to the dis turbances reported from Nicaragua quoted letter from the minister of Nicaragua to this country calling atten- ton to the fact that the reports printed were untrue and that the Associated Press had reported nothing of the kind but would have done so had the stories been well founded.
 He maintained that all projects other than that of the Nicaragua route was being put forward in order to defeat any canal legislation.
 MT. Morgan said the failure of the United States to build the isthmian canal would be an exhibition of moral weakness influenced either by powerful private interests or by convulsion of nature which appealed strongly to the imagination.
