PERMANENT ORGANIZATION
Chairman CInyton'S Speech Awakens
Great Entbusiasm.

Denver, July 0.-The opening session
to-day lasted three hours and brought
about the completion of the permanent
organization of the convention. when the
address of the permanent. Chairman Mr..
Clayton. proved to be a caustic arraign-
ment of the failure of Roosevelt policies
and an enunciation of democratic doc
trine. The orator stirred the listening
thousands to freqnen; demonstrations of
enthusiastic approval.
He spoke as follows:

lican party. 1t Is no longer anarchistic
to declare private monopoly to be in
defensble or that the great transporta-
ton companies should be governed and
controlled by public law. Former ques-
tionlng of the decision OF bare major

of the greater noise for the vehement and

THE GREAT DEMONSTRATION.

Mr.. Dunn brought out tho name of

dramatic force and the response from
the great throng was electric, The dele
gates sprang UP. the galleries followed
suit and the demonstration was under
way In a manner that for the time being
at least, promised to rival yesterday $
exhibition Of enthusiasm.
few minutes after the cheering be-
gan, an immense oil painting of Mr.,
Bryan was lowered from behind a mon
ster American shield which had reposed
over the chairman's desk ever since the
convention began. The appearance OF
the picture raised tho pitch OF the out
burst TO a veritable pandemonium. The
delegates poured from tho convention
floor onto the already over crowded
stage. Many Of the New York delegates
stood and cheered with the others, but
the majority remained seated.

SUIT INVOLVES MILLIONS

BROUGHT TEST CASE.

eminent. COrtelyOu Caused 1t.
A Washington dispatch to the New
YORK Tribune says: A suit which
may cost the government upward of
$4,OOO,OOO for back payments and
an lncalculable sum in the future
has been instituted by the Chicago
and Alton Railway, whereby it is
designed to test the legality of an
order issued by Postmaster General
Cortelyou changing the divisor used
in computing the weight of the
mails carried by the railroads of the
country.
The Chicago and Alton asks for
$4,000 back pay, but all other rail-
roads are awaiting the outcome of
the suit, and their claims to date ag-
gregate approximately 100000.
Two years ago Representative
Murdoch called attention to the fact
that the postoffice department was
following the practice of weighing
the mails for a week and then di-
Vldlng the total by six, on the as
sumption that mail was not carried
on Sundays. The product was then
used to compute the average weight
OF mail carried a month and a year,
and Mr.. Murdoch, after giving rea-
sons for his belief that this method
mulcted the government of a large
sum annually, introduced an amend
ment to the postoffice appropriation
bill to alter the system. The amend
ment failed of adoption and the mat
ter dropped.
Just before leaving the postofice
department to become secretary of
the treasury, year ago, Mr.. Cor
telyou issued an order making seven
instead of six the divisor to be used
in the computation of the annual
weight of the mails, and by so do
ing altered a practice of thirty years
standing. The railroads protested
vigorously at the time, and ever
since have regularly filed claims for
the excess payments which would be
due them were the old divisor still
retained. 1t is understood that most
of the mail carrying railroads have
joined the Chicago and Alton in the
suit instituted by it. The claim of
the railroads is that the change was
without authority of law.
