Peril in Such Importations.

The ants discovered by the Agricult-
ural Department in Guatemala that are
said to feed on cotton boil weevils, and
which it is proposed to import into this
country may turn out to be as destruct-
i've in a way as are the weevils. Rab-
bits were thought to be just the ami
mails wanted in Australia, and they
were carried there from England. In
a few years the Australian Government
was offering premiums to those who
would help abate the rabbit pest. The
English sparrow, that has driven the
song birds out Of cities and towns in
this country. is another illustration Of
an imported pest and nuisance. Gypsy
moths were imported into Massachu-
setts for scientific purposes. A few of
them escaped and in a year or two the
State government had to inaugurate
a costly war Of determination against
them.-Savannah (Ga.) News.

applause followed his assertion that
lack Of harmony in the party could not
be laid al his door.
Senator Carmack undertook to cor
rect a statement made by Bryan as to
the proceedings IN the committee on
resolutions and a short debate fol-
lowed between the gentlemen, with the
result that neither satisfied the other
as TO who possessed the better memory.
ONLY TWO WAYS OUT.
enthusiasm when he declared that he
had expressed willingness TO support
a gold standard man TO build up har-
mony in the party and again when
he declared that he believed the adop-
ton Of the gold standard would defeat
the party IN the impending campaign.
There were only two ways out of the
difficulty into which the action Of
Judge Parker had plunged the party.
One was to amend the message in the
manner he had suggested and the other
was to amend the platform by the in
sertion Of a gold plank.
Leaning far over the rail IN front
Of the platform, he shook his hand at
the New York delegation and said:
Il will agree TO adopt Senator Car
mack's plank. Will that satisfy the
friends Of Judge Parker?"
II was five minutes after midnight
when Bryan concluded and Repre-
sentative John Sharp Williams arose.
He plunged without preface into a
scathing arraignment of Bryan. Turn

who sat with immobile countenance
and famed himself. His voice trem-
bling, Williams declared that Bryan
had presented the spectacle of a man
pleading for harmony, when in all this
great convention his had been the only
voice Of discord. The amendments to
the Parker telegram, he characterized
as a lot of foolish questions" He
spoke satirically. with biting humor
and great earnestness.
In explaining that the telegram from
Judge Parker was simply an express
sion Of the Judges own individual
opinion, Williams suddenly wheeled,
and facing those on the platform,
asked: Suppose we had nominated
Bryan on this platform? %

BRYAN A SICK MAN.
Others OF the Leaders Show the Ef-
fects Of the Long Strain.

fects Of the Long Strain.
ST. LOUIS, July e.-There was no re-
gret on the part Of the delegates when
they completed their work to-day and
started for their homes TO get sleep.
The strain Of the past three days has
been the severest in the history Of po-
litical conventions. and ii was begin
ming 10 tell upon many of the delegates,
especially the leaders, on whose should
ers has fallen the bulk of the commit
tee work.
William J. Bryan has already suffered
a temporary collapse. He left the hall
at $50 o'clock this morning, as soon as
the nomination Of Parker was assured,
without waiting for the completion Of
the call, and accompanied by his broth
er entrenched himself in his room at his
hotel. where he gave orders that he was
not TO be disturbed under any circum-
stances. In addition TO the loss Of sleep
he had undergone, amounting now to
nearly seventy-two consecutive hours,
he is troubled with a bad cold, and his
brother and his close friends are doing
all they can TO force him to take some
rest. He was not at the afternoon ses-
sion Of the convention.
Senator Pettigrew of South Dakota
was among the few persons permitted
10 see Bryan, and he made a brief call
upon him at o'clock this afternoon.
After leaving Bryan's room the Senator
said that Bryan's bronchial tubes had
been badly affected and that two ply
sicians had been called in. They found
one of the lungs slightly affected, but
a change for the better had taken
place and the physicians expressed the
opinion that ell danger had passed.
They ordered complete rest, however,
and Bryan viii go TO a place in the
country near here. He will not again
appear in the convention. Senator Pet
tigrew expressed the opinion that Bry
an would later define his attitude to-
ward the Democratic ticket, but said
that he would not do so until he could
have time TO give careful consideration
to what he might say.
David B. Hill was late in arriving at
the hotel this afternoon. and even his
Joy at the success Of his candidate did
not hide the fatigue and nervousness
which the long sessions Of the resolu-
tions committee and Of the conven-
ton and Of the numerous caucuses in
which he was the leader have brought
upon him.
7 am feeling better. I have had
four hours Sleep" said Senator Till
man as he arrived at the Coliseum this
afternoon, but he found few Of his con-
freres who shared that feeling with
him.
John Sharp Williams was used up
after his first session as temporary
chairman and for the last two days
has been suffering from hoarseness.
Champ Clark. the permanent chair
man. at this afternoons session was
unable TO make himself heard beyond
the first four rows of seats. although
he keeps a cough drop in his mouth all
the time. He had his secretary make
the announcements for him through
the megaphone.
eThere are only a few Of the leaders
who show the strain Of the last few
days, and it is the consensus of opinion
that this convention has established a
record for hard work and long hours.

Stranger Arrested at SuiSun Accounts
for Possession of Span of Mules
With Peculiar Yarn.
SUISUN, July "A stranger giving
his name as Thomas McFarren and
claiming Rutherford, Napa County, as
his home, drove into town yesterday
with a fine span Of mules hitched to
new spring wagon. He drove to
livery stable and ordered the team
cared for. Constable Dawning learned
that McFarren had offered the team
and wagon for sale for $500 and at
once placed the man under arrest
pending investigation. When ques-
toned the stranger said while walking
along the road a few days ago near
Winters a stranger driving the team
overlook him and asked him to ride
with him. When they reached Vaca-
vile the driver turned the team over
to McFarren and told him to drive it
one day south and put the rig in
livery stable. The driver, claims Nc
Farren, said his name was Wilbur and
that he hailed from Portland, Or.
The constable is of the opinion that
the team is stolen property.

destroyed as rapidly as they can be-
found. Elsewhere engineers OF every
nation use up buildings as quarries or
wreck them for the sake OF temporary
profit. Spectators, native and Euro
pean, tear to pieces every tomb they
can find In the east and sell the few
snowy proceeds that have thus lost
their meaning and history. And the
casual discoveries that are made perish
in a ghastly manner. The Saxon re-
gala Of Harold. the treasures OF
Thomas a Becket's shrine, the burial
OF Alfred, the burial OF Theodoric and
the summer palace Of Peking have
within modern memory all gone the
same way as the wonders that perished

God forbid" calculated Richmond
Hobson in loud voice just behind
the speaker. In explanation of his own
attitude on the absence Of a financial
plank in the platform, he remarked
Of the money question:
IF it is in q trance it will awake, but
If it is dead do not want the corpse
in my parlor."
Taking up the question Of the reply
to Parker Williams read the first SEN
tence.
The platform adopted by this con-
vention is silent on the money ques-
tion? Does any one deny that-even
Bryan?" asked Williams. Then take
the next sentence" he said. Because
it is not regarded by US as political
issue Does any one in this hall deny
that? If there is any one on the floor
Of this convention who believes that
the money question is any issue in this
campaign let him arise in his place"
Not delegate arose.
Now let any one on the platform
who believes the money question an
issue arise"
AS he said this Williams turned to
Bryan But Bryan kept his seat
Cries Of Question, question" came
so fast that confusion reigned for some
minutes. In the confusion an effort
was made to make an adjournment
motion. This was ruled out of order.
Bryan sprang to his feet and declared
that his delegation was going to sup
port the candidate that New York
wanted for Vice President and If It
would conduce to harmony he would
withdraw his amendment to the reply.
II am going to withdraw this amend
ment," said Bryan. "Our delegation
will vote for the candidate for Vice
President that New York wants. We
are not going to do one thing to mar
the harmony Of the convention"
A roar Of applause followed the an
nouncement
After some debate a roll call was or
dered on the question of the adoption
Of the Williams reply to Judge Par
ker's message to Sheehan.
AS the roll call proceeded 1t was evil
dent that the motion to send the mes
sage TO Judge Parker would be carried
by an overwhelming majority. The re-
suit was announced to be 744 ayes, 191
