MONEY PLANK IN INDIANA.
Democrats May Adopt COlOrless Deciara
ton Rejected at st. Louis.

INDIANAPOLIS, July 30.-Leading Demo-
Gratis have been in consultation all day
to-day over planks for the platform to be
adopted on Wednesday by the State con-
vention. 1t now appears probable that a
plank will be Incorporated practically
identical with that rejected at the st. Louis
convention, declaring that the increased
volume of money, owing to the disc overy
OF gold and its COMA ge in large quantities
has been sufficient to meet the business
needs of the country and has thus taken
the money question out Of politics as an
issue.
Some of the party leaders have been
in favor Of adopting gold plank, and thus
meeting what they regard as demand
for a straight out declaration from the
business element, but there is such pro-
nounced opposition to this that the attempt
has been abandoned. Others are in favor
simply Of indorsing the st. Louis platform
and ignoring the money question entirely,
but the majority favor some expression on
the subject which will pacify the silver
element.
There has been some discussion Of the
expediency Of indorsing Judge Parker in
a separate resolution, but nothing has been
decided. National Chairman Taggart is
expected here Monday, when the matter
will receive further attention.

JOBS FOR M'CARREN'S FOES.
Doyle Preparing TO Distribute Them Before
the August Primaries.

Deputy Fire Commissioner William A.
Doyle and Bird s. Coler were in conference
yesterday with active workers in the anti
McCarren camp at the Temple Bar head
quarters in Brooklyn. Arrangements. it is
understood, have been made to distribute
all the available patronage as soon as possi-
ble in such manner as to produce effective
results at the primaries, just a month Off
Mr.. Doyle says he Is confident OF sue
cess in ten or eleven Assembly districts
and is able to control the county commit
tee against McCarren. The Senator's friends
contend that the claims of his factional
opponents are ridiculously extravagant and
that he will have almost a walkover at the
primaries.
Deputy Commissioner Thomas r. Far

FIVE PRISONERS BREAK JAIL.
File the Doors or Their Cells on Their
Hinges and OverpOMer the Turnkey.

WILLIAMsPoRT Pa, July 30.-While their
companions kept up a chorus of song that
drowned the noise Of the filing, five pris-
oners last night filed the doors of their
hinges in their cells in the Bellefonte county

him in the head with piece Of iron Oh the
doors and made good their escape. The
turnkey cannot recover. A posse is pur-
suing the prisoners, who are making their
way to Seven Mountains, a resort Of GRIM
inals.
Sheriff Hugh s. Taylor is Captain Of a
National Guard company and was at camp,
Turnkey Jarry Condo was the only attache
about the Jail. Not suspecting the
plot that had been carried out while the
prisoners sang, he entered the corridor
alone. A band concert had drawn most
of the people to another part Of the town,
and once out of the Jail the fugitives passed
through the streets unrecognized.
Among the prisoners was Dom mick
Constance, an Italian. He was awaiting
trial for burning the house and trying
to murder the family Of John Rothrock,
for whose daughter he had formed a vio-
lent attachment He had previously served
a sentence for murderous assault on Mr..
Rothrock because he would not permit
Constance to see the girl A week ago
the daughter, who had been away on
visit, returned. and neighbors fear that
Constance planned the escape in order to
reach her. Last night posse hurried
to the Rothrock home and formed an armed
guard for it all night and all day to-day:
The orders are to shoot Constance on sight
il he appears. ,,,.,, n.u.
The escaped men are William Dillon,

criminals with records. The posse in
pursuit will take them dead or alive and
a pitched battle Is expected at any mo-

Lieut.. Gov Higgins, who was in town
yesterday, said:
Il have seen the letter which Mr.. Root

strongest hope that Mr.. Root can be induced
to change his attitude. Mr.. Root would
not only add strength to the ticket, but it is
the genera a. wsn OF am Almost an % sne
the candidate. If he would only consent
to allow his name to 60 before the conven-
ton am sure that he would be nominated
by acclamation"
Judging from the wording OF the letter
would you regard 1t as an absolute and final
refusal on the part of Mr.. Root to allow
his name to be considered?' Mr.. Higgins
was asked.
swell, the wording of the letter is strong
enough to seem prohibitive, but, as said
before, I am hopeful that Mr.. Root may be
persuaded to take the nomination"

alliances and intrigues.
Such man as he, they say, would unite
would be OF vast assistance to the national

and that his prior service as secretary Of
the Democratic State committee and his
connection with the State Board OF Rail
one time chairman, gave him a wide and
useful acquaintance throughout the State.

A large crowd of Republicans
met in the Auditorium Saturday
afternoon to select delegates and
committeeman for this district.
To sum up the proceedings in a
few words the situation was like
this:
George E. Work was running
w. L. Armstrong for committee
man. Mr.. Work and Armstrong
claim they are for Teter, and
against tax reform as proposed by
Governor White. The Standard
Oil company is opposed to Daw-
son because he stands as the
champion of tax reform which
proposes to tax oil, gas and coal.
The Standard, therefore, is oppos-
ed to Dawson and issued its Or
der for it's employees to attend the
convention Saturday and vote for
the Teter men, which they did,
and that's all there is to tell about
the Saturday convention. Some
of the delegates selected to the
State convention claim they are
not pledged to either Dawson or
Teter, but they were appointed to
do the bidding of Work and Arm
storing, who are to deliver the del

At the Catholic church there
was a very large attendance and
the affairs were prettily embellish-
ed with flowers and plants and
presented a very attractive ap-
pearance. There were masses and
Holy communion at $50 and 7
o'clock in the morning. At 9
o'clock children's mass was cele-
brated. The principal service was
at 1890, when pontifcal high
mass was celebrated. There was
special musical program rem
dered at all the services which
was beautiful.

The Republican district conven-

meeting was largely attended and
very enthusiastic throughout. At
torney R. L. Moore called the
meeting to order. DR.. j. R. Stath-

Merton Hilliard and Frank Nc
Caulley were elected secretaries.
The only contest was between

strong came out victorious.
Both Dawson and Teter, who

three districts out of the five have
instructed for him.

TRlcoLoR AND cockADE.
origin of the Historic Rcd, White
and Blue of France.

origin of the Historic Red, White
ana Blue of France.
Some seventy or eighty years before
France was involved in the flames OF
the revolution-that is, at I'D epoch Of
the war of the succession when she
was in close alliance with Spain and
Bavaria-it was thought desirable to
distinguish the allied soldiers by
cOckade which combined the colors Of
the three nations-the white Of France,
the red Of Spain and the blue Of Ba-
varia.
To none OF such incidents, however,
would it be wise to attribute the origin
OF the historic tricolor and cockade
adopted by revolutionary France. At
the outset there seemed a likelihood
that green, which Camille Desmoulins
had pOpularized at the Palais Royal,
would have become the national color
but men remembered in time that it
was that of the livery of the Comte
d'Artois, the most unpopular Of the
Bourbon princes, and it was thereupon
discarded.
A proposition was then made to as
sumo the colo-s of the city of Paris
blue and red. as Dumas reminds US in
his six Ans Aprcs" To these was
added the white of so many glorious
memories because it had been selected
by the national guard-always faithful
to the throne and its traditions.
Not until some months after the cap
ture of the Bastille was the tricolor
definitely adopted, when Bailly and
Lafayette presented It TO Louis XVI IN
the great hall OF the Hotel de Vile, and
the convention issued a decree in which
it was described as consisting Of three
"disposees en- trois bandes
egales, de maniere que le bleu soft at
tache n la garde du pavilion, le blanc
au milieu, ct le rouge fiottant dams les
airs"-that is, in equal vertical sec
tions, with the blue inward, the red
outward and the white between.
This is the historic flag which Ma
poleon's legions, in conjunction with
their eagles, bore VIGOROUSLY from the
Seine to the Elbe the Tagus, the Boro-
dino and the Danube, which they
planted VIGOROUSLY on the walls OF
almost every European capital.-All
