ST. Petersburg, May 1.-THE prob

suggestion that Skrydloff return from

plans may be, the admiralty says he
will certainly proceed TO Vladivost-

California Democrats.

Santa Cruz, CAL. May 1.-THE
chief feature of the state Democratic
convention today will be the report
of the committee on resolutions. 1t
is probable that two reports will be
presented, one by a majority of the
committee which it Is understood IA
vors an uninstructed delegation, and
another by the minority favoring the
endorsement of w. R. Hearst for
President There is a possibility that
the debate on the resolutions will be
prolonged and vote not be reached
until tomorrow. Should this be the
case, today's session will be devoted
chiefly to oratory. The vote taken
yesterday on the election of tempora-
ry chairman showed the opposing
factions nearly evenly divided, and
neither side seemed prepared to
force a vote on the main issue be-
fore the convention.
The committee on platform met at
ten this morning to hear the reports
of the subcommittee. The indications
before the convention was called to
order were that the fight for instruc-
tions is still anybody's.' The Hearst
leaders seem confident of winning
and their opponents are quite as well
satisfied that the San Francisco dele

HANSBROUGH FOR REVISION.
Senator Hansbrough of North Da-
kota, on the other hand, is leading a
fight for tariff changes. He is the
author of a declaration, which he CIR
culated freely to-day, calling for such
a modification in the tariff as will meet
our changed and changing conditions. =
Delegates from the trans Missouri
section are generally opposed to any
declaration for reciprocity. because OF
the effect Of the statutory adoption or
such a policy on fruits, wines, wool
and hides.
Senator Hansbrough's plank in the
form in which he will present 1t to the
committee reads as follows:
I'VE recommend an early readJust-
ment of the rates Of duty in existing
tariff schedules to meet the require
ments of changing and changed busi-
ness conditions and in the matter OF
our commercial relations with other
countries"
AS originally drafted, the plank was
longer than this, but the Senator de-
clared tonight that he would present
it in the form quoted.
The National Manufacturers ASso-
citation is planning to make a strong
fight against the insertion in the plat
form of any plank calling for or de-
claring in favor of the adoption OF an
eight-hour day or any declaration

piled to labor disputes. Eighteen

Would Not Accept Second Place on

CHICAGO, June 19.-In view of a
threatened revival of the movement to
name Speaker Cannon for the Vice
Presidency, charged this time to the
New York delegation. Cannon author
lied the press to quote him as follows:
Having in view the great compli-
ment that the Vice Presidential NOM
ination would be to any citizen, yet |
am Speaker of the House of Represent
atives and have been a member of that
body for nearly thirty years. | feel
that my sphere of usefulness, if l. have
any, is in connection with the House.
About week after the close of the late
session of Congress, at the request of
friends, and perhaps others, / gave out
an interview on this subject. This was
done after full consideration, and |
stand by the interview. which stated in
substance that l considered the Speak
ership the second highest office under
the Government and If the next House
were Republican 1 hoped to succeed
myself and if not to cheerfully do duty
i'm the minority"
Cannon concludes his interview with
the statement that he is not now a can
didate for the Vice Presidency, that he
would not at any future time be a can
didate and would not under any cir
cumstances accept the nomination.

Gentlemen, it's a simple thing, but
there isn't one among you who knows
how to boil a ham," He then ex-
planned: "All of you make the mis-
take of removing the ham from the
water when it has boiled sufficiently.
That is fatal. Leave it in the water
until the water Is cold, then remove it.
The idea of taking a ham out while it
is hot, and Immediately skinning it, is
barbarous All the rich juices, all the
f1avors, are lost. I'd as lief eat chip"

as when ! started. The doctors told me
my stomach lining was full of sores.

Americans Great Coree Drinkers.

The people Of the United States
drink more coffee than any other ma
ton on earth. but not as much in pro-
portion as the people OF certain other
countries. When the difference in pop
ulation is taken into consideration Bra
Zil far surpaSses US as a country OF
coffee drinkers. Belgium and Holland
also excel us in this respect. The con-
sumption of coffee per capita in Brazil
is fourteen pounds each year. in Bel
gium and Holland it is eleven pounds,
while in the United States each person
in the population consumes an average
of eight pounds of coffee yearly. Eng
land is away behind in the procession
with a consumption Of only one-half
pound per capita annually. but the
amount of tea consumed on an average
in that country by each person is five
times as great as in the United States.
