LIND STOPS STAMPEDE
HEARST CONTROLS MINNESOTA
DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION
BUT LOSES DELEGATES.

Duluth, June 23.-The Democratic
state delegate convention held here
last evening refused to instruct it's
delegates for Hearst after his sup
porters had secured control of the
convention. The race between Major
Bowler, the Hearst leader of Minneap-
oils, and c. D. O'Brien, the anti-Hearst
candidate for chairman, was extremely
close, but the former won out by a
margin of 40 votes of the LOOP pres
ent. For time it looked as though
Hearst sentiment would rule IN every
thing and it doubtless would have
done so had it not been for speech
of Congressman John Lind, who turned
a crowd of excited delegates who
clamored for an instructed delegation.
to one which expressed itself when
the vote came as opposed to instruct
ing for Hearst or any other man.
The anti-Hearst men secured three
of the four delegates at large and
will get an even break on the district
delegates. The delegates at large are:
John Lind of Minneapolis, L. A. Ros-
ing Of Cannon Falls, H. L. Buck of
Winona and c. D. O'Brien Of St. Faul.
The convention was very stormy
and for q time bolt seemed probable,
because of the gavel welding of
Major Bowler.
The resolutions declare for reaf-
f1rmation of the Kansas City platform
and laud William J. Bryan as the
greatest Democratic statesman of the
day.

Chicago, June 23.-From the stand.
point Of political Importance the adop'
ton Of the party platform was the
event of the second days session OF
the Republican national convention. 1t
contained declarations of party policy
that are to form the basis of much OF
the oratory in the coming campaign.
Preceding the adoption of the plat.
form the report of the committee on
permanent organization, naming
Speaker Cannon for permanent chair
man, was adopted. His speech aroused
great enthusiasm among the delegates
and visitors.
The platform reviews the work OF
the Republican party during it's last
seven years of complete supremacy in
national affairs; points with pride to
the work done in Cuba. Porto Rico and
the Philippines;- declares in favor of
UNFOLDING the gold standard; favors
legislation to upbuild American ship.
ping; commends the foreign policy of
President Roosevelt and his action in
the Panama canal and other matters.
Regarding trusts and the tariff the
platform says:
Laws enacted by the Republican
party, which the Democratic party
failed to enforce ana which were in
tended for the protection of the public
against the unjust discrimination OF
the illegal encroachment of vast az
gregations Of capital, have been fear
lessly enforced by Republican presr
dent and new laws ensuring reason
able publicity as to the operations of
great corporations and providing ad.
dittonal remedies for the prevention
of discrimination in freight rates have
been passed by Republican congress.
"Protection, which Aguards and de-
velops our industries, is cardinal
policy Of the Republican party. The
measure of protection should always
at least equal the difference in the cost
of production at home and abroad. We
insist upon the maintenance of the
principles of protection and, there
fore, rates of duty should be readjust-
ed only when conditions have so
changed that the public interest de.
mands their alteration, but this work
cannot safely be committed to any
other hands than those of the Repub-
lican party"

BIG BATTLEIMMINENT
THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND RUS.
SLAMS AND JAPANESE LINED
UP FOR THE FRAY.

st. Petersburg, June 28-Lieutenant
General Sakharoff's dispatch received
Monday night confirms the belief that
the great decisive battle Of the cam
paign between General Kuropatkin's
main army and the armies of Generals
Kuroki and Oku is imminent. The
three armies probably aggregate 300,-
900 men and their outposts are today
in touch all along the line. The Jap
1nese' evidently tried to draw Kuro-
patkin as far south as possible, hold
ing out as an incentive check to the
advance of Oku's main army. Mean
time Oku swung sharply to- the east
ward to join Kuroki toward the Cha
pan pass. Kuroki at the same time
moving a strong force by the right
flank toward. Haicheng.
The main Japanese advance cOntin-
ues along the main Fengwangcheng-
Liaoyang road, avoiding the Moatien
pass by a detour to the northward.
The advance in all pointss is being at
tended by constant skirmishing.
Nothing is known here Of the exact
point at which Kuropatkin:s main force
Is concentrated, though It is believed
that a large part Of the Liaoyang force
has been moved to q point between
Kinchau and Tashichiao.

Arthur Fight.
st. Petersburg, June 25.-The ad
miralty has no direct news of the ma
val battle fought off Port Arthur June
e, but the announcement Of the en-
gagement evidently created no sur
prise here. the authorities having been
aware. that the squadron Of Rear Ad
miral Wittsoeft was ready to put to
sea at moments notice.
On Thursday the correspondent Of
the Associated Press was informed
that important naval developments
were anticipated. If an actual engage
ment occurred the admiralty cannot
believe that Admiral Togo got off prac-
ucally unhurt. Particular solicitude,
therefore. is expressed to know
whether the Russian battleship Peres-
Wet was sunk by mine as she was
emerging from the harbor or by pro-
jectile, as 1t was known that the JAP
snase had repeatedly tried to mine the
entrance.
