In until williston was reached. Here
he gained entrance through the top
OF the car and found four hobos read

they had rified. Four men answering
the description were later arrested In
Williston and 1t will go very hard

Adopt Platform Endorsing Suffrage
Amendment TO State Constitution
DISTINGUISHING Negroes.

Baltimore, Aug. 11.-State Comp
troller Joshua Herring was unani-
mously rehominated today by the
Democratic State convention.
The platform, which was devoted
entirely tc State issues, among other
things. favored the suffrage amend
ment to the State constitution to be
voted on this fall. which in effect dis
franchises the illiterate negro vote.
A resolution had been prepared for
submission to the platform commit
tee indorsing United States Senator
Rayner for reelection, but it was
withdrawn at Senator Rayner's re-
quest. IT was feared by Senator
Rayner and State and city leaders
that a resolution of this sort might
be considered rs taking the place of
the present senatorial primary cleo
ton law. The resolution was not
deemed necessary, as the entire party
organization, 1t was said, Is i'm favor
of Rayners reelection, and it was
conceded that he would have no op-
position.

temporary work in the tunnel on the

ed by fire, which broke out this
morning at s o'clock. the fire being
more menacing tonight than at any

are 100000 feet of Southern and

wood, all of which will burn unless
some method can be discovered to
stop it. The cordwood above the
wooden crown, all of which was de-
signed to be encased in concrete
caught fire from a spark from a
steam shovel, the spark going through
a crack between the timbers which
are II inches thick.
Late this afternoon the ground
above the tunnel began to cave in.
and tonight it is feared Rivermont

SEXES LOT OF GOOD BEER.
Marshal Dennis McKelvin Gets His
Clutches on Four Barrels OH Sulli-
vans Island


Charleston, Aug. 11.-Marshal Dem
mis- McKelvin made yesterday after
noon a seizure of four barrels of fine
export beer on the back beach on
Sullivan's Island.
Chief Constable Bateman got track
of the consignment and he started
out to follow the beer to it's destina-
ton and there to seize it, AS usual,
his appearance on the ferry wharf
was Immediately telephoned ahead,
the plan which is almost invariably
followed, handicapping the official in
the discharge OF his duty, and when
he attempted to search car at
Mount Pleasant, he was called off the
job by an employe of the company.
Chief Bateman then took a car and
went down to the Atlantic Beach ho-
tel, waiting at the station.
The beer did not come down with
the freight train and then Chief
Bateman began to take look about
this section of the island. He brought
the sleuth McKevln into the game
and in short time the marshal had
the four barrels which had been hid
den in a small house on the back
beach. Marshal McKevlin gave at
tentio1 al once to the draymen on
the island and having found that one
in particular had been seen q short
tii e previous with his team hitched
up at station No. 10, the marshal re-
paired to this station and followed
fresh wheel tracks which took him
to the little house and rewarded him
for his trouble. The beer was turned
over to Chief Bateman.

Republicans Responsible.

1T must be understood that the
Republican party is soley responsible
for this Act. The Democratic mem
bers OF the ways and means committee
of the House were not admitted to
the committee rooms during the con-
sideration of the bill nor were the
Democratic members of the Senate
finance committee admitted while the
majority members were considering
It, and it is equally we'll know that
the Democratic members of the con-
ference committee were ven denied
the right to participate in the deli
berations of the conference commit
tee, and were given only a few hours
to consider It, after the majority had
agreed upon 1t, before the vote was
taken. Re 1t said Of the Democratic
party in the House that out of the
III of Its members. on the final pas
sage of the bill, only Two Of them
cratic members of the Senate, only
one voted for 1t, and these men both
in the Senate and in the House
come from that section of Louisiana
which seems to be Republican upon
the tariff. The Democratic party has
never shown in the consideration of
any tariff bill in the history Of this
country more unity Of action nor
a greater determination to vote for
real revision in the interst of tn
people than 1t has in the consideration
of this Act
The question is not settled-lt
cannot be settled in thte interest Of
the people Of thte Republican party,
and If there is to be genuine revis-
ion Of the tariff it must come through
the Democratic party"
