THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION

THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION
 The democratic national convention of one thou,aud members assembled in St Louis yesterday forenoon and a temporary organization, in the interest of Judge Alton B. Parker, was effected as prearranged by the national commit tee, with Johu Sharp Williams of Mis- sissippi, leader of the minority in the house of congress, as temporary. chair man. Mr. Williams made a notable speech, in which he ridiculed the claims made for the republican party and the Roosevvlt administration by E'ihu Root, and delivered an eloquent p,-oratiou on the principles and the achieveme ents of the democratic party, Mir. Williams allusion to Grover Cleve- land provoked applause which contin- ned for several minutes. Nothing was done at the first session beyond the appointment or committees.
 Today was chiefly notable for the ovation paid to William J. Bryan upon his entrance with the committee on credentials, which evidenced that he has lost none of that remarkable qual- ity of magnetism with which he so sig. nslly controlled the conventions of 1896 and 1900. The demonstration today in recognition of Mir, Bryen was evidently unexpected by the couserva tive forces in the convention, who were taken completely uniwares, and only hy s rally to the Parker btaner were they able to overcome the enthusiasm for the radical leader.
 The Cleveland and Bryan demonstra. ,ions both serve to illustrate how easily a vast conoourse of people can be sway yed, but neither are signiic Iat of real and substantial sentiment among large proportion of the convention in favor of either leader representing the extremes of democratic opinion.
 The judgment of those who are on the ground snd best able to judge is that conservative opinion will prevail, and that the nominee of the convention for president will uaequivocslly represent conservative ideas. Tue consensus Of opinion is that Jadgs Parker will be the nominee.
 The past few days have witnessed important accessions to the Parker banner, the most notable being the Pennsylvania delegation, numbering sixty eight. G)rmau's influence, it is said, will also go to the New York jurist in exchange for the position of chair man of the national com mittee. Ohio, Illinois, West Virginia and New Jersey are counted for Parker on the second ballot, which would insure his nomi. nation.
 With the growing strength of Parker the chances of Clevelandps nomination have oorrespondingly diminished and he is only possibility in the event of the failure to nominate Parker on the | second or third ballot.
 A four days convention is now cer- tain, with the chance for a prolonga- tion of the proceedings into next week, should the fight on the presidential nomination last for more than two or three ballots.

WAIKIKI CROWDS
WINFIELD S. CROUCH DROWNED
WHILE BATHING YESTERDAY
AFTERNOON.

Winfield S. Couch, young man of
Rochester,, n. Y, was drowned yester-
day afternoon at Waikiki, under cir
cumsances that add to the usual shock
of such an occurrence. He was drown
ed in the sight of scores of people who
We're willing to have helped him, had
they realized that the man was in
danger.
Crouch arrived bv the S. S. Korea
yesterday. He went to Waikiki with
party of friends from the vessel, for
the purpose of taking a sea bath. He
got a surf board and accompanied by
John e. Hartshorn, went in the water.
They waded over from the shallow por-
ton of the beach into the section in
front of the Moana Hotel. Both men
got into deep water. Hartshorn was
poor swimmer but he succeeded in
swimming back to shallow water.
Crouch had the surf board but it slip
ped away from him. Crouch apparent
ly could not swim, so he began to
cry for assistance. Hartshorn got hold
of the board and swan over to the
help of Crouch but by the time this
assistance reached him. Crouch was
water. Hartshorn held the man above
the water until additional assistance
reached them. Efforts were made by
Drs st. D. G. Walters and Archer r.
win to resuscitate Crouch but he was
beyond help.
An inquest was held last night and
the following verdict was returned by
the coronors jury. THAT the said
Winfield S. Crouch came to his death

lulu, Island of Oahu, Territory of Ha-
wall on the 22nd day of April, 1904, from
asphyXiation, to wit, by being acct
dentally drowned in the surf at Wal
kiki Beach, Honolulu"
The drowning of the young man was
witnessed by many people who were
comparatively close to him. A num-
Der of people were on the Moana Hotel
pier at the time and sonny" Cunha
and Allen Dunn were nearby in a canoe
dozen natives were on the beach but
nobody seemed to realize that the man
in deep water was being drowned be-
fore their eyes.
The deceased registered at the Young
Hotel. He is understood to have had
wife and two children in Rochester.
Shortly after his arrival in the Korea
he received a cablegram from his wife
inquiring how he had enjoyed the trip
| He is thought to have answered this
cablegram stating he was well. A
few hours later and he met his death
in the surf at Waikiki. The remains
will be embalmed and shipped to Roch-
ester. The deceased represented sew
eral eastern houses and was to have

Nevertheless. despite the disinclina-

SECRETARY ATKINSON'S
BOND MISSION EAST

The Chronicle says: A. l.. C. Atkin-
son, Secretary of the Territory of Ha-
wall, was a passenger on the steamer
Alameda, which reached port yesterday
from Honolulu. He is a guest at the
Palace. Secretary Atkinson is on his
way to New York to undertake the
floating of $1,OOO,OOO of Territorial bonds.
Speaking of his mission yesterday, he
said:
THE Territory of Hawaii is authoriz-
ed to issue, for the purposes of pub
lie improvement, bonds to the amount
of per cent of its assessed valuation,
with the proviso, however, that not
more than s1,0O0,O0O of bonds may be
issued in any one year. 1t is not the
purpose of the Territory, however, to
issue more than 100000 of bonds, and
it may be that only 100000 will be
issued. Last year Governor Carter,
then Secretary of the Territory, went
East and fioated the first issue of ST.
5000, the proceeds from which have
been used in improving the sewer sys-
TEN of Honolulu and in the building
of wharves, roads and bridges. The
proceeds from the second issue of ST.
100000, which it is my business to dis
pose of, will be used to complete the
improvements already undertaken.
Whether an additional $1,OOO,OO0 of
bonds win be disposed of next year has
not been decided. The Territory's
bonds issued last year were disposed of
at n good price, and l am hopeful that
we will be able to secure a good figure
for those now to be sold" Secretary
Atkinson will depart for the East this
morning.
