SILVER OUT OF THE PLATFORM.
Compromise VIII Be Reached by the
>Democrats of Iowa.

DIES MONIES, Iowa, Sept 2.-There
will be no contest in the Democratic state
convention to be held tomorrow over the
platform. The opponents of a reaffirma-
ton of the Kansas City platform are here
in force Today the silver men, under
the leadership Of C. A. Walsh, secretary
of the national Democratic committee,
who have heretofore stood steadfastly for
a reaffimation Of the Kansas City plate
form, proposed compromise and had
printed and circulated among the dele
gates the following proposed plan:
'"The Democracy of Iowa in convention
assembled indorses and reaffirms the
principles of the last platform, with the
further declaration that intervening
events have so changed conditions that
the silver question is not an issue"
This was accompanied by the statement
that the time has come to recognize that
old issues are now at the front and that
this plank is offered as one acceptable
to all.

1t remains to be shown whether or
not Roosevelt has covertly promised to
advocate ultimate independence for the
Filipinos-when they have shown their
capacity for government. If he
made such a promise in secret, why
should it not be made openly? T h e
Globe suspects the whole report is
a Republican trick.

FARGO, N. D., Sept. AT the meet
ing Of the Democratic state central
committee today only part of the can
didates were present. These, with Ma
tional Committeeman Eaton, selected
an executive committee and discussed
plans for the campaign. Lack of funds
will make effort in this state difficult,
especially because Of the great Repub-
1ican majority at the last election, but
there was a disposition to make as
good fight as possible under the cir
cumstances. There was some discus
sion over the possible resignation of
S. 4. McGinnis, of Jamestown, as can
didate for lieutenant governor for bus
mess reasons and objections Of his
wife, but efforts will be made to keep
him on the executive committee, COM

C0NspIRED TO KILL LAWYER.
G. r. Mains Figured in a Sensation at
Battle Creek, Mich.
(By Associated Press.) }

Detroit Feb. &c. r. Mains. who was
the United States marshal, was the GEN.
trail figure in a sensation which stirred
the whole state about two years ago.
Mains was at that time one of the
most prominent attorneys in Battle
Creek, Michigan, and was arrested on a
charge of conspiracy to kill. This con-
spiracy. 1t was alleged al the time, was
against the life of s. II. Hurlburt, an
attorney of that place. who had brought
charges Of perjury against Mains.
1t was alleged that Mains hired man
by the name Of "Mollie' Mcguire to
sandbag Hurlburt and bring him In an
insensible condition to place where
Mains was waiting and where he ex-
pected to revive Hurlburt and by threats
of death compel him to sign a statement
generating Mains from the charge of
perjury.
"Mollie" Mcguire was arrested and
confessed the part he was to have taken
In the alleged conspiracy
Mains was acquitted of the conspiracy
charge. but afterward was disbarred by
the Michigan supreme court.

SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST HOS
PITAL DESTROYED BY FIRE
THIS MORNING.
ESTIMATED LOSS 100000
Two of the Patients Are Missing But
It Is Thought That There Was
No Loss of Life-Will Be
Rebuilt at Once.
(By Associated Press.)

Battle Creek, Mich, Feb. 1S.-The
Kellogg, or Seventh-Day Adventist, san
itarium here, which was located on a
hill at the highest point in the city, was
destroyed by fire early today and the
property loss Is estimated at from $780,
900 to 100000.
So far as can be learned, there was
no loss OF life among the 400 people In
the sanitarium, although one or two per-
sons are said to be missing and 1T is pos
sble their bodies may be in thu ruins.
However, those missing may be in
one of the houses or hotels which have
taken in the homeless patients.
Mrs. II. o. Daniels of Eldorado, Ark,
is the only person who was seriously
injured. She Jumped or fell from the
fire escape at the third story and sus-
tained a broken leg.
The fire started in the bathroom of the
sanitarium building, probably about the
furnace. A still alarm was turned in,
but the first company of firemen could
not cope with the flames, which spread
up the elevator shaft TO the roof like
rockets.
Fire Beyond Control.
A general call was sent in, but the
fire was beyond control. The water
PieSSuie was ioW anu tHlS duueu TO lne
handicap Of the firemen, as the sani-
tarium stood on a hill. In two hours the
building was in ruins and the hospital
was nearly destroyed.
1t Is almost miraculous that the Sleep
Ing inmates escaped with their lives.
Watchmen darted through the cor
ridors awakening them when the fire
was discovered. Few of them had time
to gather together any clothing, escaping
I'm their night clothes. The corridors
soon filled with smoke and about half
of the patients were compelled to make
their way down the fire escapes.
The manager of the sanitarium Is pos
tive that no lives We're lost, as each
room was visited three times by a nurse
before the building was abandoned.
The buildings will be rebuilt immed!-
ately.
