JOHNSON TOTOUR
OHIO WITH A TENT
Pre- Convention babiIties-McLean
Faction Not Resisting Johnson's
Friends.

SANDUSKY, Ohio, Sept. 1.-The fea-
ture Of the day in the Democratic con-
vention preliminaries was the arrival Of
Mayor johnson in his automobile from
Cleveland. He declared himself against
the new municipal code proposed by
Gov. Nash, TO the extra session Of the
legislature, and favored the federal
plan for all Ohio cities. He also de-
nounced the proposition for perpetual
franchises. Regarding national affairs
he spoke highly Of Col. Bryan and the
platform on which he made his cam
paigns. Mayor Johnson said tonight
that he would start out Immediately
after the convention with his tent on
a tour Of the state.
While everything Is conceded by the
Mclean men to the johnson element,
except control Of the new state central
committee, that, as well as all the other
committees, is claimed by the Johnson
ites When the delegates meet to-
morrow evening by congressional dis
tricts, 1t will be determined what fac.
ton secures a majority of the twenty
one members Of the state committee
and that Is the feature and the fight
Of the convention.
The Mclean men, while not in ac-
cord with Mayor Johnson's views on
national and state policy, will not make
fight on the Johnson platform. The
platform will not only incorporate
Johnsons views on taxation, franchises
and other state issues, but also reaf-
firm the Kansas City platform and in
dorse Bryan.

ADMIRAL HIGGINSON
MAKES CAPTURES
Hostilties Between the Army and
Navy Are Fully In
aueurated.

NEWPORT, r. L, Sept. Admiral
Higginson did not delay long after the
declaration of hostilities today to cut
out the work for the jackies and ma
rines of his fleet, accomplishing in day
light but under cover Of the fog, two
things that Gen. MacArthur's army
had not anticipated. These were the
seizure of Martha's Vineyard and Block
island and the capture of the army's 8
signal station at each place.
Tonight he followed up his good
work by a demonstration in force
against the extreme western end of
the line of defending Notifications, but
it cannot be determined until later if
he actually attempted to force his way
into Long Island sound or simply
aimed to give his crews a little big
gun practice and his captains the op-
portunity to maneuver within striking
distance to determine the location and
caliber of the ordnance in the forts.
The navys night attack was not ex-
pected at the western end of the line
quite so early in the game. The theory
was held all day. after 1T was known
that Higginson had secured a base on
the outlying islands, that he would
send his cruisers for reconnaissance
against both ends of the line and then
swing his fleet into the center or
around Newport for sharp, yet heavy
attack there, maneuvering quickly, and
then, when things became most inter-
esting, sail to the westward and make
his grand effort to force his way into
Long Island sound. This would have
been his night attack, for it seems al
most certain that the day attack will
be against Fort Rodman, the eastern
point.

PACKERS ARE GIVEN
ANOTHER WARNING
Special United States Attorney Day
Will Prosecute for Contempt If
Combine Is Formed.
Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
WASHINGTON D. c., Sept. L.
Contempt Of court charges may be
made against the great packers Of the
West If they form the huge combina-
ton mentioned persistently as being
in process of formation. Judge Will
liam Day, special attorney of the
United States in the prosecution of
the suit against the beef trust, is here
and his agents at Chicago, Indianap-
oils, KansassCity and Omaha are keep
ing him informed as to the condition
Of affairs.
II see by the press that great COM
bination is talked Of" said. Judge Day.
THUS far there has been nothing Of
which we can take cognizance; but if
a combination is formed that in any
way tends to show collusion among
the packers in restraint of trade or to
foster monopoly, or in the way of fix
ing prices, shall take steps to have
the parties cited for contempt. There
is temporary injunttion in effect re-
straining the so-called beef trust from
doing anything contrary to the Sher-
man antitrust law and such combi-
nation as that talked of might easily
be in violation Of the law"

poor to fair; the remainder say good.
Rye-Nearly all reports say fair to
good

DISASTER OVERTAKES
BALLOON EXHIBITION
Aerial Carriage Wrecked and the Pas
sensers Are Bruised and
Frost Bitten.

DENVER, Col, Sept. AFTER
lapse of more than twenty-four hours.
during which no word was received
from the aeronauts who left Denver
yesterday to try for a transcontinentai
voyage, a telegram came tonight an
nouncing that the airship had been
wrecked in a storm twenty-seven miles
north Of Florence, Col. Although
bruised and somewhat frost-bitten, the
occupants were not seriously hurt.
The storm first struck the balloon at
$50 last night and between that hour
and daylight the experience OF the
aeronauts was terrible in the extreme.
Three times the balloon was carried
over Pixies Peak and the last time II
was necessary to throw out all the wa
ter. provisions and instruments In or
der to clear the rocky summit OF the
mountain. At daylight landing was
made and tonight the men reached
Florence.
The adventurous men are Thomas
Baldwin and Percy Hudson both ex-
perienced balloonists, and II. G. l..

LIGHT IMPORTS FROM
THE PHILIPPINES
the Republican Lawmakers
Estimated.

WASHINGTON D. c., Sept. 1.-Sur-
prising results have followed the COM
pilation of the tariff records on goods
imported from the Philippine islands dur
ing the first five months Of the operation
Of the Philippine tariff act. Under that
act 75 per cent of the Dingley rates were
to be collected on Philippine imports into
the United States and this was to be held
as a trust. fund in the United States
treasury Although, when the act was
passed, 1t was realized that the imposi-
ton of any duties Of this kind would be
restrictive of trade, it was argued that
as the returns would be somewhere in
the neighborhood of 100000 per annum
that. consideration would outweigh the
drawbacks Of maintaining tariff system
against the Philippines.
The returns show that the total re-
ceipts. for the five. months Of March,
April May, June and July were but $11,-
1874, a sum So small in the opinion Of
the officials, as to scarcely meet the cost
of collection. Moreover, the returns by
months do not show any increase, but
rather decrease in the collections These
facts will be brought to the attention
Of congress at its next session.

It Is impossible to approach the ruin

The people of the village Of LIE Carbet,
on the coast, are terror-stricken and
flying to the interior. Hot water is
pouring down on Lorrain and Basse
Pointe, villages to the northeast of
the crater. Horrible detonations were
heard. The ground rocked and quaked

Suddenly and without warning one
half of the horizon was obscured by a
pitch-black cloud Of dust This cloud
was the center of most magnificent
electric effects, the flashes of light sur
passing the most elaborate fireworks.
Flames and flashes continued to burst
from the cloud until nearly midnight.

Columns of flame shot out of the
crater of Mont Pelee to explode about
the cloud in showers of balls of gold
en- fire which fell through the dark

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT Is SAID
TO HAVE PROMISED THIS AS
TO THE PHILIPPINES
INDEPENDENCE AS SOON AS
PEOPLE ARE FIT FOR 1T
For This Reason the Anti-Imperialists
Resolve to Abandon Agitation-They
Take Back Nothing, but Cease Crit
icism Because They Have Faith in
the President.

Special to The Globe.
BOSTON, Mass, Sept. 1.-The lead
ers of the anti -Imperialist party, whose
headquarters is in Boston and most OF
whose names were signed to the anti
imperialist petition to President Roose-
welt calling attention to the alleged
outrages in the Philippines, have de-
cided that their work for the present
is done and will stop all further agita-
ton.
They have had from President
Roosevelt himself, through reliable
intermediary, it is said, definite
promise which amounts to an offer Oh
independence to the Philippines SO
soon as the inhabitants of the islands
have shown their ability to manage
the civil government which Gov. Taft
is to establish. This means that the
anti -imperialists of the country over
will drop the matter of the petition ana
will let up on other criticisms of the
administration policy. This is true, at
least. so far as the opponents OF this
policy are subserVlent TO Boston iiiiiu-
ence.
1.-The president, while he declines TO
give a public pledge which would bind
the nation to a hard-and-fast policy
thus early in the experiment" said a
leading anti-imperialist today, wants
the Filipinos to have their independ-
ence If they insist upon it after the
islanders have demonstrated their apli-
ity to run their own affairs under
limited self government. The anti
imperialists do not stop criticism be-
cause they are inclined to take back
ANYTHING but because they have faith In
the president and will back his plans
for eventual Filipino independence"

GERMAN DEFENDER OF OUR

Says Americans Have Been More Patient
Than Any Other NatIon Could Be.
BERLIN, Sept IA correspondent Of
the Frankfort Zeitung,' writing from Ma

the part of the American army appearing
in European newspapers. He says:
Perhaps no other nation than the Unit
ed States would have the patience to
meet the stubborn resistance of the Fill
pinos in Samar for two long years with
such humanity, on the whole, as has
been the case. 1t is not to be wondered
at that the American leaders finally let
their gall run over at the treacherous
tricks played ON them and adopted sharp
er measures. OF course some excesses oc-
CURED, but it is highly inadmissible to
select these few cases and serve them to
the public as typical of American war
The correspondent emphasizes the in
Justice of expecting Americans to observe
in every case the rules of civilized war
fare while fighting such foe. The writ
er praises the political slrewdness, COM
bined with moderation, Of making sur

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept 1t is
the opinion at the war department that
Gov. Taft's remarks at the board Of trade

to the Philippines be amended. 1t Is
contemplated to remove the IRON clad re-
striction which now exists, and clothe
the Philippine commission with power to
regulate the entrance of Chinese labor
The proposed regulations, 1t Is said. will
