of immigrants are two very impor-
tant things needed by the South. The
fear that some entertain. that II Will
mean the raising OF more cotton and
lower price for cotton has little
foundation in fact. Immigrants from
sections outside OF the cotton belt
will take to cotton raising very little,
both because they are not acquainted
with cotton and because they will
make more profit from other things.
They will be more likely TO raise
stock TO eat cotton-seed and cotton
seed meal. 10 raise the price of these
things for those who do raise cot
tom They will also produce more
feed. and that will be to the advan-
tage of those who are so enslaved 10
cotton that they do not raise their
own supplies. Besides all this. the
greatest question OF the South would
be forever settled II enough immi-
grants come to the cotton belt. as Mr..
Murphy suggests.

CHINA AWAITING OUR FLEET
Government Appropriates 100000 Il

Entertain Crews.
eking, July 2S.--The Chinese gov
eminent is completing its preparations
for the entertainment OF the men Of
the fleet of American battleships at
Annoy, where the visiting men of war
are due to arrive in October. The orig
inal sum of $4,000 appropriated for
purposes Of welcome and entertain
ment will be augmented by another
$4,000.
China, however is disposed to keep
as secret as possible her preparations,
as I'll as her determination to give
a bei-tting welcome to the American
warships. This arises from the hurnil-
iation she experiences from the fact
that only part of the fleet will visit
China, as compared to the calling Of
all the vessels in Japan: to
the criticism that the government Is
extravagant in appropriating 100000
for entertainment, and also because
the proposal that the fleet come to a
port on or north of the Yangtse-Kiang
was vetoed for fear that Japan or
China or both countries would misin-
terpret the true meaning Of the visit.
DR.. George Mark, the Chinese COM
missioner on arrangements, has all
eady left for Annoy, where he will
knperintend the arrangements. The
program includes banquets to the Of
flcers and men. Three thousand Amer
lean sailors and marines will be dined
at one time, and there will be a series
Of sports on shore and continuous per-
formances in the theaters and pavil-
lions.

Charles H. Mitchell of Chicago arose
to "a point OF order, but Chairman
Walsh asked him to keep quiet for a
bit. The fighting in the middle aisle
by this time was on in earnest and all
efforts to restore order ended. Twenty
city police were in the rear of the hall,
but did not act at this juncture.
There was slight cessation of the
uproar, and above it Mr. Shepard cold
~ remarked:
II fear that among our patriots few
Tampany braves have crept in"
This was fuel to the flames of the
New Workers., and the blood went to
their heads once more. Daily started
after the Kansas delegate once more,
and once again did he go to the floor,
the result Of left hook from an as
sistant sergeant t-arms.
The galleries were aflame by this
time and the signal code from the
platform steps sent the assistant SER
geant- at-arms to the upper regions.
Chairman Walsh was now trying to
get order. The women, in evening
gowns, who filled the boxes, were on
their feet amazed at the weaving field
of maddened men below.
Throw him out" ITO h with Bry-
an" "Break his head" mo traitors
here" were some of the cries which
swept up to the platform.
Charles II. Mitchell was recognized
to make point of order. He held
that the platform specifically provided
that the independence party should
not nominate any candidate who had
been nominated by any other party.
and asked that Shepard be removed
from the floor.
'.Are you going to nominate such q
candidate?" shouted Mitchell to Shep-
ard, his finger pointed at the Kansan
and his face livid. ANSWER the ques-
ton yes or no."
Shepard is Urmoved.
The crowd became angrier as Mr..
Shepard stood with his hands folded
in front Of him, not an expression
passing over him features, waiting for
the racket to end.
Answer the question" demanded
Chairman Walsh.
II do not intend to deceive you" re-
piled Shepard, advancing to the front
of the platform. II intend ito NOM
mate w lllldlH iJeIuiASS la SSAaA ~ ~
braska."
Ten minutes more OF fighting fol-
lowed this clear cut reply.
Then Chairman Walsh had a hear
ing. He read from. the platform the
proposition referred to by Mitchell. re-
viewed the history of the independence
party movement and said:
Under such circumstances must
rule the gentleman from Kansas out
OF order" and the last syllable was
not out OF his mouth before Shepard
went bounding over the edge of the
rostrum, pushed from behind and re-
ceived by waiting arms which hustled
him to the doors and out into Michi-
gan avenue, with George Washington
McCaskrin in the middle of the hust-
lers.
Judge Waterbury of Kansas secured
recognition as soon as the delegates
could be forced into their seats,
II want to put my state right" he
said. "That man is the only man in
Kansas who Is for Bryan" This re-
mark was received with much appro-
baton from the crown.
Then z. c. Fowler OF Topeka, an
nounced that Shepard was Withdrawn
from the ltional committee.
