QUESTION OF VERACITY

Chairman Clark recognized Senat1 1r Carmack of Tennessee.
 The spjeaker declared that MT. Brya n had said that the nomination of Judge Parker would be a declaration enough on the money plank.
 "Mr. Chairman" said MT. Bryan, rii- ing hastily, T beg the gentleman , pardon, but I never said that"
 John S. Williams supported MT. Fry an in his statement and MT. CarmaclS accepted the correction. The senator took occasion to deny that he had ever received a message from Judge Parker and the chair recognized Mir. Bryan, who presented an amendment to the re- ply to Judge Parker as follows: But as you will, if elected, be called upon to act upon certain phases of the mon ey question, we would like to know whether you favor reducing the volume of silver dollars, whether you favor an asset currency and branch nationa. banks, whether you prefer national bank currency to the United Sta tes notes."
 Mir. Bryan then proceeded to aIswer some of the statements made by those who had followed his first address Great applause followed his assertion that lack of harmony in the party could not be laid at his door.
 Senator Carmack undertook to cor rect the statement made by MT Bryan

all the delegates here, it seems to me that we ought not to proceed at this time to nominate a candidate for vice. president, and l therefore move that the convention-' Here cries of "why, why?" interrupted Senator Gull person.
 "I think the delegates understand what I mean" he proceeded.
 Chairman Clark interjected: Pro ceed."
 And I repeat" continued Senator Culberson, that in the present exig- encies. which confront the convention it ought not to proceed to the nomina- ton of vice-presdent."
 Right. right" greeted this state ment We want to know before a candidate for vice president is nomin- ated who will be the candidate for president" Applause and cries of ap- provS! again interrupted the senator) When he could be heard, he made his motion for a recess until S.30 p. m. The excitement increased while the senator was speaking and he was cordially in vited both to keep on," and to "sit down.
 His motion was put by the chairman. The vote was, in the opinion of most people lost, but Chairman Clark loud- ly banged his desk, declared it carried and quickly left the platform before the convention recovered from its amazement.
 Confusion was great before Culber- son rose, and was intensified greatly when he intimated that Parker might possibly vacate the head of the ticket As soon as recess was announced the | delegates instead of leaving the hall rushed into conferences. In an instant there were fully twenty groups in the ! hall, in the center of which there were 1 two or three very much excited, and gesticulating men who discussed the
 Parker telegram vehemently. The po- | lice again and again passed along the aisles endeaVoring to clear them, but l the delegates refused to move and the | excitement greatly increased as g dense throng, through which it was l impossible; to pass, gathered in front
 of the chairman's desk and strove des- perately to learn the exact import ot | the message. Their efforts were un- availing, however. The leaders disap- peared and the session closed with ex- pectancy as to what would occur wher | the convention reassembled at S:30 D | m.

Russians Rather Expected
 It and Do Not Care
NEW ChWANG GOES NEXT
It Is Admitted That the Japanese Have Bsen Given an Advantage but it Is Claimed That Kuropathin's Plans Have Not Been Disturbed.

St. Petersburg, July 9.-The capture of Kai Chou by the Japanese, announc- ed from Tol1io today. is not officially confirmed at the war office. but 1t is not the disposition to question the probable correctness of the report. as latest advices received here make it plain that the Japanese were advanc- ing in force along the railroad against the Russian position.
 The occupation of Kai Chou. while 1t is not believed it will exercise a ma terial influence on Kuropatkin's strat- egy, is of importance to the Japan ese Jas it brings them within reach o. New Chwang,. facilitating Oku's junc- ture with Kurok, who already may be in touch. News of the evacuation or New Chwang by the Russians would seem to be the logical sequence of the announcement of the occupation of Kai Chou by the Japanese.
Arizona republican., 1904-07-10

The vote was overwhelmingly against a recess, but MT. Clark declared with q thump of his gavel that the motion was carried, and at 3:30 D. m the con- vention was declared in recess for two hours.
 Chairman Clark was in the Coliseum ten minutes before the hour fixed for the convention to resume this after noon. Not only were there many vacant seats in the galleries, but a number of absentees were noticed among the delegates and alternates.
 THE FIRST HINT.
 A report that an attempt might be made to reopen the platform and in- sert financial planl, spread rapidly through the hall. It created conster- nation amorg the most of the delegates who saw an end to their hope of leav- ing St. Louis tonight or learly tomor- row, should such a coup be attempt ed. Mir. Bryan's collapse and consequent | absence was looked upon in some guar ters as lending color to the rumor, and the session opened with an evident air of expectancy.
 Shortly before the session convened, rumor that MT. Davis, of West Vir- ginia had been agreed upon by leaders for the vice presidency went rapidly through the hall, and the delegates gathered in groups to discuss the S t. uatIon
 CHOOSING THE RUNNING MATE II was 5:37 o'clock wheb the frs' | sign of opening the session was male. Representative John Sharp Wnliams of Mississippi moved that nominating | speeches should be limited to fifteen minutes and seconding speeches to five minutes but that no more than four seconding speeches be allowed for any one nomination Ball of Texas offered substitute limiting the nominating speeches to ten minutes. leaving th| 1 the time of seconding speeches at five minutes and limiting the number 70 ! three Mir. Williams at once withdrP " his motion in favor of the substitute and it was adopted without dissessiop
 A roll call of the states was then cali. | ed for the presentation of candidates for vice president. Even at this time the gallery was less than half filled. and great rows of vacant seats were visible Alabama was called several times but there was no response, but finally Mr. Russell. Of that state. announced thai | Alabama would give way to Illinois Samuel AlsChular of Illinois arose and announced that Freeman B. Morris would speak for that state.
 MT Morris took the platform to name Jesse R. Williams of Illinois.
 Thanks to the few people present, h' was able to do what no speaker before him had been able to do, and that wsS fo make his voice audible to every person in the auditorium from his frs! word.
