SHOW SOME SIGNS
OF BREAKING AWAY
MANY OF THE DELEGATES IN IL
LIMOS HAVE GONE HOME DIS
GusTED WITH FAILURE OF CON-
VENTloN TO ACT.

Springfield May 19.-For the first time
since the beginning of the deadlock in
The Illinois Iep7 nIicen conventions, the
delegates today commenced to show signs
of breaking away, and there was evil
denced disposition to leave the leaders,
Many of the delegates left town this
morning. Three votes were cast by tie
more faithful of the delegates, in some
instances a single delegate voting an en-
tire coanty. The feeling of unrest found
vent in the introduction of a resolution
providing that the convention proceed to
the nomination of candidates for office
other than that Of governor, but the
proposition was defeated.
None of the gubernatorial candidates
wanted the resolution to go through, and
the candidates for minor offices were too
timid to insist upon it, fearing such ae-
ton would injure their chances.
The ballots taken today were without
appreciabe change in the result. Sher-
mans men continued to vote for Deneen
throughout the day, but he made no
further gains, and on the last ballot to-
night Sherman's men returned to him.

Sank In TWO Minutes.

Che Foo. May 19, 1890 p. ma party
Of thirteen Russians arriving from
Dany This morning by junk are author
ity for the statement that during q
bombardment of Port Arthur by the
Japanese Monday afternoon the Japanese
battleship Hatsuse and the cruiser Yosh-
ino struck mines and sank.
The Russians say that the Hatsuse
sank two minutes after running on the
mine and that the Yoshino was being
towed away by a vessel of the lombard
ing feet. when she also went down.
The thirteen Russians seem to have OBJ
tained their information from the COM
manding officer at Dalny, who showed
them, they assert, a telegram from Port
Arthur that the bombardment commenced
at / o'clock Monday afternoon, and that
two hours later the Hatsuse struck a
mine and was soon at the bottom Dur
ing the confusion that followed, accord
ing to the story told, the Yoshino also
struck on a mine and was taken in tow,
but was settling so fast that it was
found necessary to abandon her.
A number of Russian torpedo boats
then went out, but the Japanese received
reinforcements and the Russians retired.
Today's arrivals say that the entrance
to Port Arthur was blocked, but one of
the sunken steamers was removed and
the entrance is now open, but 1T is still
dangerous and the Russian feet has been
ordered to remain in the harbor until the
arrival of Admiral Skrydloff, who will
take command. Communication north of
Dalny has been completely severed.

APPEAL Is MADE
TO NEBRASKANS
BRYAN SAYS IMPERIALISM WILL
NEVER BE SETTLED UNTIL THE
FILIPINOs HAVE FREE GOVERN
MENT.

Omaha, Neb., May 19-William j. Bryan
tonight received an enthusiastic reception
at the hands of 1000 democratic demo-
Gratis at the Krug theatre In this city.
Mr. Bryan delivered an address which
was a denuncation of the reorganizers,
and an appeal to local democrats to send
a delegation to the state convention which
would be in harmony with the other dele
gates. and who would represent the reel
democracy of Nebraska.
Mr.. Bryan denied that the question of
imperialism had been settled, and said
il would not be settled until the Filipinos
mad a free government like the United
states or were forced into government
similar to the one they now enjoy
IF this government will kill Filipinos
for wanting free government" he said,
III will be only question of time when
they will kill people Of this government
insisting on free government.
You ask me how to win success for
tho democratic party. | say that instead
ofigetting on your knees and begging men
to- come in who have on sympathy with
its principles, whip out those who care
not for what It stands. and whose ac-
tions belle their words"

No Time to Save Crew.

Che Foo, May 10. 8 p. m.-People just
arrived here from Dalny have reported
to the Russian consul that the Japanese
batteship Hatsuse sank in two minutes
after contact with, the submarine mine
and that there was no time to save the
crew. The accident happened, it is said.
within sight of Port Arthur
The battleship Full, not the cruiser
Yoshino, which struck the mine on the
port bow had a heavy list and was also
down by the bow, but was righted and
went off in tow of the other cruisers.
1t is thought impossible, however, that
she could reach port.
The rumor at Dalny, to the effect that
the Yoshino had sunk in Kerr bay,
probably refers to the sinking of the
steel cruiser Miyaka, which took place
there recently by coming in contact with
a submarine mine.
The Russian consul personally had a
telegram from Dalny saying that it is
rumored there that two Japanese battle
ships had been sunk off Port Arthur
Refugees coming in say that the town
received no damage from the lombard
ment and that considerable land fighting
is going on to the north of Dalny.

To Prosecute Tobacco Trust.


Attorney General Knox Is being press
ed to institute proceedings against the
tobacco trust, and he has decided to take
indirect preliminary steps in the matter
Several of the Kentucky and tennessee
members of congress. in speeches on the
floor, claimed that the trust IS pursuing
its business at the detriment Of the To-
baeco growers in defiance of law as con-
strued in the railroad merger case.
The complaint was placed before the
attorney general by Representative
Gaines of Tennessee, who was today IN
formed by that official that he had direct
ed the district attorney Of the Middle
Tennessee district to receive any evidence
that may be submitted tending to snow
violation of law and to report such
evidence with an opinion as to Its suf-
ficiency to establish violation ot the
law The department appears 10 be only
nominally interested in the proposition'
and it is hardly likely that the admins
tration will do much running amuck
with the tobacco trust.
