Transcontinental Route.

Birmingham.-The official announce
ment by the Illinois Central that this
new Birmingham division will be
opened for traffic April 18th. calls at
tention to the completion of the last
link in the great Hartman transcon-
tinental route, for by controlling the
Union Pacific, Illinois Central and Cen
trail Of Georgia. this system will extend
from the Pacific to the Atlantic. In
addition to supplying the last link in
this chain, the opening of the Haley
vile branch will give the Illinois Cen
tral an inlet to the great coal and iron
fields OF Alabama, with their immense
annual tonnage.
The Central of Georgia terminals
here connect with those of the Illinois
Central. thus giving direct connec-
tion from Illinois Central points with
the sea at Savannah over the Central
of Georgia. Connections of the I'LL.
nois Central with the Union Pacific
thus give complete system from one
ocean to the other.

LlcAN CONVENTION.

PLATFORM ENDORSES ROOSEVELT
AND HUGHES-FAvoRs GEN.
ERAL TARIFF REVISION.

New York.-Gov Charles E. Hughes
was indorsed as New York's Repub-
lican candidate for President by that
partys state convention held Saturday.
and the four delegates-at-large, with
their alternates, elected to the Chicago
national Republican convention were
instructed to use all honorable means
to bring about his nomination.
The four delegates-at-large are: Gen.
Stewart l.. Woodford, ex-Mayor Seth
Low of this city, Frederick r. Hazard
of Syracuse, and E. Fl. Butler of Buff
falo.
The convention-the thirteenth held
by the Republican party to elect dele
gates-at-large to national convention
was q repetition of it's distinctive
feature Of the Oneida convention of
1880, when Roscoe Conkling sought
vainly to have not only the delegates
at-large, but the congressional dele
gates also instructed for Ulysses s.
Grant
ExState Senator Edgar T. Bracket
OF Saratoga, president of the Hughes
State League, precipitated a sharp de-
bate by presenting minority report
from the committee on resolutions to
amend the resolution indorsing Gov
ernor Hughes and to instruct the dele
gates-at-large to work for him, and the
other delegates to "persistently labor
for his nomination until a nomination
is made" This failed, and the major
ity report was adopted almost unani-
mously.
The platform indorses in strong
terms the administration of President
Roosevelt and Governor Hughes. and
commends the policies of the federal
administration.
A revision of the tariff is favored and
the action of Congress in declining to
revise the tariff by piecemeal is in
dorsed.
Changes are advocated in the cur
rency laws to provide a more elastic
and satisfactory monetary system.
The platform favors the upbuilding
of the American navy the speedy COM
pletion of the Panama canal: the de-
velopment of the American merchant
marine; the improvement of the inland
waterways: the re-enactment of popu-
lar government in the Philippine ISL
ands, and commends the movement for
the settlement of international differ
ences, and also of all disputes between
labor and capital by arbitration.

tial law to prevent looting The sol
ridges.
The bodies of three persons, so
badly burned as to be unrecognizable,
are at the North Grove street morgue
No other deaths have been officially
reported.
An early morning estimate of the
loss by an ofiicial Of a prominent in
surance firm placed the total at be-
tween $7.50O,000 and $1O.00O.OOO. The
total insurance, 1t was figured, was
about $5,000,000.
The fire ragged before forty five
mile gale for more than twelve hours,
defying the utmost efforts OF the COM
bined fire departments of Chelsea and
several nearby cities and large de-
tachment of Boston firemen and ap-
paratus.

OF an ellipse. mile and half long
and half mile wide at its broadest
part. extended diagonally across the
city from a point near the boundary
between Everett and Chelsea to tho
waters Of Chelsea creek.
