 By vote of 1,03S to 570, the dem ocratic convention Tuesday placed upon the table the request of William J. Bryan for the resignation of Roger c. Sullivan from the national commit tee.

Sullivan came at the close of most exciting session of the convention in which there were several fights and throughout which confusion reigned supreme. rho com. mittee on resolutions declined 10 re. port a plank calling for the resigna- ton of Sullivan and the de ate fol lowed upon a motion made in the convention by Judge owen Thomp- son of Jacksonville, calling for Sulli- vans resignation.

A hospital corps and other de- tails are following the axtillerymen to Pinar Del Rio in readiness for what Is expected to be a short and decisive campaign. The province of Havana is quiet.

! 1t is generally recognized that the
digestive organs of the American are
fearfully and wonderfully made. In
no respect is this more apparent than
In the consumption Of so-called sea
food" from the Atlantic seaboard to
the Mississippi valley. The Chicago
epicure may be forgiven for liking
Cape Gods and Blue Points opened a
thousand miles from tidewater. But
among the strangers who sojourn in
New York hotels and dine in New
York restaurants, there is an unhal-
lowed taste for fish which should
either disgust the eater or induce
ptomaine poisoning, or both. Weak
fish, when served under the alias of
sea trout" are devoured by visitors
from the west, in season and out,
whether softened by hot sun or hard
ened and spoiled by cold storage. The
wise man, disregarding all the time
honored warnings, knows that he may
eat his fill of Holsters and crabs, and
may even wash them down with milk,
provided they were alive when cooked.
But not all the digestive tablets in
America can act as antidote to blue
fish which have been dead for days In
the hold of smack, or have been laid
out in the arctic atmosphere of cold
storage plant, to be resurrected after
several moons have waxed and waned.
A good sauce may temporarily con-
ceal the fact that fish cannot be en-
lbalmed. So, says the New York Post,
we suppose the Bostonian will go on
eating red snappers from the Gulf of
Mexico, while the Galveston gourmet
enjoys Five cod" beneath a tropical
sun.
