ic national convention Saturday night
| nominated HI. G. Davis. of West Vir-
ginia for vice president on the first
ballot. The following message from
Judge Parker to VIM. F. Sheehan
caused an excited discussion:
Il regard the gold standard as
and shall act accordingly if the ac-
ton of the convention of today shall
be ratified by the people"
las the platform is silent on the
subject my views should be made
known to the convention, and If 1t
proves to be unsatisfactory to the
majority, request you to decline the
nomination for me at once so that
another man may be nominated at
once"
The convention replied to Parker
as follows: THE platform adopted
by this convention is silent on the
question of a monetary standard be-
cause it is not regarded by us as a
possible issue this campaign. and on
ly campaign issues were mentioned
In the platform. Therefore there is
nothing in the views expressed by
you in the telegram just received
which would preclude a man enter
tanning them from accepting a nomi-
nation on said platform"
The following dispatch was receiv
ed late Saturday night:
ST. Louis, July 9.-Henry G. Davis

ted by the convention for the vice

Bourke Cochran explains that he left
the St Louis convention before the
nomination of vice president was

owing to the failure to adopt finan-
cial plank he could not truthfully say
to the convention that Parker had
the faintest prospects of success. But
he says that by the action Saturday
night the situation was changed. AT

RUSSIANS SLOW TO ADMIT.

BY the Associated Press.
St Petersburg. April 15.-An unof
fetal dispatch received here from
Port Arthur reports that it was the
Bezstrashni, and not the Strashni as
reported in official dispatches as
sunk by the Japanese torpedo boat
destroyers.
Information which has slowly
reached st. Petersburg, has modified
the opinion at first prevailing con
cerning the original cause of the de-
struction of the battleship Petropav-
volvsk
There is gradually developing dis
position to- admit the possibility that
after all japanese torpedo boats may
have dropped mines at the entrance
to Port Arthur harbor. An official
said to the Associated Press tonight;
ut would he far better II the ship
was actually blown up by the enemy's
mine instead Of by Russian mine.
The latter would be the result of in
excusable carelessness and would
properly arouse the emperor's anger.
The former, while 1t would speak vol
umes for Japanese craftiness, could
not readily be avoided on dark nights
II would be almost impossible for
