CLEVELAND STAMPEDE.

Dispatch to the St. Louis Gobe-Democrat.
 Chicago It developed today that llli- nois is likely to slip it's instructions for Hearst after the first ballot. or perhaps the second, and cast it's influence with Tammany for Grover Cleveland.
 This is the plan which is being carefully perfected by John P. Hopkins and Roger Sullivan with James Eckels and others who are favorable to the Cleveland cause. These gentlemen figure that the strength of Judge Parker will be fully developed on the first or second ballot and by that time there will be an opportunity for one of the strong delegations, like llli- nois, to turn the tide by swinging in,o line for one of the other candidates
 Here is where Hopkins plans to take advantage of the little joker which was slipped into the platform resolutions passed at the Spring field convention This resolution. 1t will be remembered gave to the delegates the right to meet and, by vote of a majority of their number, set aside their instructions.

Vacations in a New Liqht.

Up in Connecticut bank tellers, book not only to take an annual vacation, but they must also use the midday 1unch-hour privileges The compul- sory plan has not been adopted in or der to secure greater efficiency from employees, but to secure chance to necticut covered up an embezzlemnt amounting to $7000O by always being at his desk in bank hours. He let no other clerK have an opportunity to uncover his sly methods. He took no vacations and no lunches He took conscience and cunning instead, and they ruined him at last.
 No one objects to the Connecticut plan, It Is sound and sensible in prac- tical operation, but the basis of it's adoption is a islander upon the young men of Connecticut, and through them upon every other person in that state. It's basis should be withdrawn, and that. too. in no gentle manner. Vaca- tion and the lunch hour need no basis other than health and efficient ser vice. They are able to stand alone on their own merits, and the lugging in of a islander upon the bank tellers, bookkeepers and clerks is gratuitous and betokens the brute instincts in the men wno invented it. Editor Op- per's attention should be called to the New Haven situation.

The Fourth.

q am glad the merchants of the city
 decided to close their places of business
 on the Fourth of July" said a gentleman
 last night. 'It Is only fitting that the day
 should be fully observed. The youth of
 the land should be taught to cherish the
 sentiment which is connected with this
 anniversary and to celebrate it heartily
 for what it stands for in the civilization
 of the western hemisphere.
 "In the business activities of the pres- ent day important anniversaries are too apt to pass by unnoticed and without a thought of what they stand for in our history. But given an opportunity and the people, especially the small boy, will cele- brate the Fourth enthusiastically and with much noise
 .I understand preparations have been made at various pleasure resorts in and around the city. for picnics. races and other forms of amusement. do not think southerners are quite so enthusiastic in their celebration of the Fourth as are the people of the north and east, but Bir- mingham people generally contrive to have a good time and are not lacking in patriotism. It is very certain the people of the Birmingham district will be out Monday in large numbers, and that they will celebrate the one hundred and twen- 1 ty-eighth anniversary of the Declaration of Independence with great spirit

 Many couples drove out from Florence and added to the guests at the hotel, filled the hall and galleries with a merry throng. The springs, under the manage ment of $. l.. Whitten, have been made more attractive than for years past.

At the Soda Fountains.

Birmingham is a great town for the vendors of soft drinks" said man about town last night. Most everybody pat ronizes the soda founts, and a vast uuan- tity of cooling drinks are required to quench the thirst of the Birmingham peo- pie. The proprietors of these resorts are just in the midst of their busiest season. and the people are as thirsty this sum mer as usual Sundays are their busiest days, many patronizing the cold drink counter more generously on this day than through the week. but It is seldom sny days are dull in the summer months More drinks are sold between the hours of D. m. and T D. m. than at any other part of the day.
 Tt is hard to name the most popular summer beverage sold in Birmingham. Coca Cola is very popular and Is making new friends every day. It is interesting to note the numerous new drinks that are offered every few days Though the names are not familiar, in many in stances the ingredients are practically the same one is accustomed to in old drinks"

DIR. J. H. PHILLIPS ADDRESS
 BRINGS FRIENDLYCOMMENT

traordinarily costly and difficult tc es- tablish in the thinly settled agricultural communities into which the southern states were divided. And today, when the people of the south are aroused to the absolute need of general schooling of the best obtainable sort, rural schools are ex- ceedingly difficult. But it is true as MT Phillips declared, that the needs of the rural south are today enlisting the earn est attention of our best thinkers and the present educational movement in the breadth of it's scope, the earnestness of it's spirit, and the intensity of it's ardor is without parallel in the southern edu- cational history
 We may add, from our own knowledge. that not only is the movement earnest and broad, but it is extremely practical and intelligent and it is finding most encouraging response from public opin- ion in many parts of the south. We are confident that it will advance steadily and will bear rich fruits.
 Nor is this movement in the direction of the reduction of white illiteracy an- tagonistic to the promotion of schooling for the blacks. It is true that there Is certain feeling in the south in support of the movement to limit school expen- ditures for the blacks to the amount con tributed by the blacks for school pur- poses. It is not a strong feeling and those who are most earnest in the effort to ad- vance white schools are most opposed 10 this policy In general way it may be said that white education will necessarily promote black education, for the more in- teligent the whites are the more clearly they will see the supreme danger of ignorance for any part of the population a danger not at all confined to the part kept in ignorance, but extending to all

Platform Canal Boastinu.

1 The republican platform deliberate ly and with malice prepense says:
 "rhe possession of route for an isth- milan canal, so long the dream of Ameri-. ican statesmanship, is now an accom- plished fact. The great work of connect ing the Pacific and Atlantic oceans by canal is at least begun, and 1t is due to the republican party"
 As a plain matter of fact no 18th milan canal could be dug now if Sena- tor Morgan had not kept the subject constantly before the people in the last twenty-five years. He pushed it at every opportunity, and history will say that to his pertinacity and his rare ability and skill are we indebted for the canal possibilities of the present day. Platforms are not expected to state facts, but the boasting of the republican platform exceeds the limit.
 If Senator Morgan had not kept the project alive, the canal would today be at least a generation distant. A canal no doub, would have been built at some distant day, perhaps a cen tury hence. The present generation will see canal completed, and their gratitude is due- not to the republican party, but to Senator Morgan.
 Platforms are written in all insin- cerety They ai written to catch the unwary voter. No other country em- ploys the clumsy device, and there is no reason in this country why a party should not be judged by It's acts instead of its bare and often bra zen promises. At any rate the histo- rian will not be deceiveed by mere platform boosting. The acts of the last fifty years will be summed up when he renders his verdict as to the canal ant as to who made it pos sible in the early years of the presnt century.

IN HOTEL LOBBIES
cleveland's Boomers.

While former President Grover Cleve- land is not a candidate for the demo- cratic nomination his partisans are boom- ing him and working to have him nom mated just as If he had declared himself in the race" said an old democratic.
 'I attended the democratic convention in Chicago in 1892 when the only two candidates were Cleveland and Hill. Hilfs boomers buttonholed such Cleveland dele gates as they could approach and told them that the ex-President could not carry New York; that Hill could and that it would be well. therefore, if Cleveland were dropped so that his opponent would have the field to himself. But Cleveland was nominated by a big majority. He carried New Yorw by tremendous ma iority and was elected by unprecedented majority
 The late William c. Whitney was MT. Clevelands manager at Chicago. Many of the old guard intimate friends of MT. Cleveland were on hand to assist MT. Whitney. At St. Louis there is notable absence of the old guard working for the former President MT. Cleveland's old friends are still his friends but new men have charge of the present Cleveland boom. Thomas F. Ryan of New York. seems to be the Cleveland manager MT. Ryan is having his first experience in national politics. but he has been in the public eye for several years past as a successful fnancier and railroad man. He is the vice president and virtual president of the Morton Trust company, and he and J. A. Blain together now control the Sea board Air Line. He is 8 multi-millionaire and Is perhaps the most generous bene- factor the Catholic church has ever had. From the number of churches. parachial schools and charitable institutions he has built it is estimated that his benefactions to the church have amounted to between three and four million dollars
 Ryan was born in Virginia, but has lived in New York since he was a young man. He and MT Cleveland have been | close personal friends for ten or twelve years.

AT BUZZARDS BAY.
Cleveland Arrives on E. c. Benedict's
 Yacht and Goes Fishing.
to the New York Sun.

Special to the New York Sun
 Buzzard's Bay, Mass, July 1.-Com- modore k. c. Benedict's steam yacht Oneida arrived here today, having on board besides her owner Grover Cleve- land of Princeton and Dr. Bryant. The yacht anchored off Gray Gables and the party will remain here for a week
 The neighbors of Mir Cleveland and the boatmen along the bay shore were on the watch for the yacht at daylight, and as she steamed along the narrow channel hearty cheers echoed across the bay. and flags on the summer residences along the short were dipped in honor of the arrival of the ex-President MT. Cleve- iand seemed in perfect health.
 As soon IS the yacht came to anchor an officer was sent ashore with telegrams from Mir. Cleveland to Mrs. Cleveland at Sandwich, N. H., announcing his safe errival. The weather cleared at II o'clock. and MT. Cleveland, Dr. Bryant and Com modore Benedict came ashore and spent short time in Gray Gables and later looked over the improvements that have been made during the past year.
 This afternoon the party went fishing for bottom fish off Wings Neck. Joseph Jefferson has arranged a fishing trip to sandwish. eight miles from here. where both he and MT. Cleveland have well stocked trout brooks.

The Business Situation.

Henry Clews' weekly circular of Satur- day date says
 Holiday inertia overhangs the stock market. With three days cessation of bus mess in prospect there was a natural in- disposition to take up new commitments until the regular routine is resumed. Im- portant events. 1t must be remembered, are likely to shortly occur at the seat of war in the east which would exercise a far-reaching effect on the European bourses
 Again, only three years ago business was resumed after the holidays to find the corn crop blasted by heat and drouth. This is not likely to happen again at the same date. but such remembranees induce caution. In a few days, also. the St. Louis convention will take place and the opposition candidate chosen This event is not likely to go off so smoothly as It's predecessor at Chicago, and the probability of more or less exciting dis cussion acts as a check upon stock mar ket activity. Still another element and the most important element of all. is the crop situation.
 50 far crop prospects are quite satis- factory, the promise being above the aver age. This development is, of course. im- i'al tirg a much more hopeful feeling in Dus'i ess circles, which has already been reflected in the stock market In fact. 1t is question whether or not this ad- vs sage has not been sufficiently dis counted for the present.
