They will be men who are in touch with com mercial conditions, and who have had experience in past campaigns. The selection of MT. Dover for the secre- taryship of the committee pleases him and his acceptance of the place dis poses of the report that his relations with MT. Hitchcock are not harmonious.

SHAH IS BETWEEN
 TWO BIG DEVILS
TRIBESMEN CALLED TO PROTECT HIM FROM REVOLUTIONlSTS ARE PROVING A GREATER MEN, ACE THAN HIS OTHER FOES.

St. Petersburg, August Especial dis patches received here from Teheran give a tragic-comic description of the position of the Shah of Persia, who is virtually a prisoner in the hands of wild tribesmen, summoned to Teheran to protect the throne against the revolutionaries, but who have become a greater menace to the monarch than his other foes.
 The tribesmen are eXtravagant in their demands for money, which the Shah IS unable to grant, and they threaten to de- stroy the palace and pillage Teheran.
 The $250000 secured from the Russian bank recently as a loan on the crown jewels is already exhausted. General Lakhoff' s Cossacks are unable to make any headway against the tribesmen, who have refused to permit the Shah to leave the camp at Badeshakh for Saltanabad, where the harem is now staying
 Famine is reported to be imminent in Southern Persia, and this promises to bring about crisis in political affairs in the autumn.

Watts, democratic candidate for governor of the state in 1S99 The speech came. at the conclusion of the show yes- terday, and MT.
