of the mutiny and of their trials and
conviction.
Brown and Brodrick. the two ex-
bankers, from Elkhart, Ind, were seen
to meet, shake hands and then walk
to a corner of the yard where they
conversed for some time. Some In

they could talk their language, ran
around the yard looking for their

REPUBLICANS SCRAP
West Virginia Has Her Most
Dlsorderly Convention

WHEELING, w. Va, July 12.-At
the close of the first day Of the most
turbulent political convention in the
history of the state, following the Bit
terest fight the party has ever expert
enced, William M. o. Dawson is the
Republican nominee for governor.
Claims of accessions from the ranks of
the Dawson followers, made by the
managers of Charles F. Teter's candi-
dacy, determined the Dawson leaders
to make a test of strength early in the
day, and it came when w. P. Hub
bard's motion to dispense with the
committee on credentials, resisted
stubbornly by the Teterites, was car
ried by more than 100 majority. The
Dawson people, despite scenes of the
widest disorder, during which Senator
Elkins threatened to withdraw from
his position of chairman, forced a
nomination before the platform was
prepared.
The Teter followers took advantage
of the disturbance of the convention to
try to force consideration of the allega-
tions of wholesale frauds in Kanawfla
for Dawson. The point that the con-
county, which instructed its delegates
tests were all settled when the con-
vention decided to dispense with the
committee on credentials was debated.
Senator Elkins finally decided that the
Kanawha contention was not in order.
