lions for President of the United tsates were now
in order.
Daniel O'Conne1 warrior and defender of true
Americanism sprang to his feet and in a stirring
speech, which was frequently interrupted by
tumultuous applause of the convention, dwelled
on the patriotism of Senator Hoke Smith of Geor-
gia
Mr. O'Connell said that during the session of
the Senate, Hoke Smith had stood out pre-emi-
nently among other patriots. That he had
staunchly upheld America sovereign nation,
denounced the unneutral attitude of Great Britain,
and fearlessly had gone record for embargo
and ammunition serving the interest
of America best.
81, therefore, nominate this great American
patriot, this guardian of national honor, for
President of the United States, and I hope that
the convention will endorse him unanimously"
BEDLAM BROKE LOOSE.
And then Bedlam broke loose. Cheers and
hurrahs! The strident Irish war cry was mingled
with the deep-throated old Teuton hurrah, and
the American war-cry heard at the battle of Get
tysburg and Bull Run. Hoke Smith was
doubtedly the unanimous choice of the conven-
ton. The cheering continued for at least seven
minutes, and the chairman tried desperately to
make himself heard. Finally when the enthus-
iasm had subsidized somewhat, Chairman Senator
Hare asked:
'You have heard the nomination of Senator
Hoke Smith Of Georgia for the Presidential choice
of this California Democratic State Convention,
do hear any seconds to this motion?' Frank
r. Damn got up and seconded the motion, re-
echoed by hundreds Of others.
"Al those in favor of Senator Hoke Smith of
Georgia for Presidential choice of this convention,
will please say Aye
And four hundred and eighty-three ayes
fairly shook the vast hall.
O that I could have heard O'Connell's
speech, and the noise which arose from the
commingling of "the strident Irish war cry,
the deep throated old Teuton hurrah, and the
American war-cry heard at the battle of
Gettysburg and Bull Rum"
"Four hundred and eighty-three Ayes

friends speak Of the CAROLS, of Maryland;
and If you will read the Romanist papers you
will soon get the idea that Charles Carroll Of
Carrollton wrote the Declaration of indie
pendence, the Constitution of the United
States, and Washington's Farewell Address.
Charles Carroll was fine old character,
and a staunch Catholic, but he did not keep
every member of his own family in the pope's
fold.
Anna Ella Carroll, relative of the first
Catholic Archbishop (Carroll) and a descend
ant of the Signer (Charles Carroll) pub
lished, in 1856, one of the most effective at
taczs that was ever made on Romanism.
Her book is entitled "THE GREAT
AMERICAN BATTLE"
The Civil War soon came upon the States,
and different battle ragged for four years,
during which Professionalism forgot Rome but
Rome did not neglect her own interests.

disappeared, suppressed perhaps by the

1t is suggested by some sportsmen
that .'pushers" on the Patuxent river
will be little in evidence this season
Under the law, it is stated. non-resi-
dents must pay n license of $40 and
employ a licensed pusher. While the
fee allowed the pusher is fixed at 81 a
tide il is stated, Washington gunners
have spoiled the pushers with larger
sums. II is also stated that some men
who have held licenses in past years
have left that section.
Under the laws of the District only
the three species of march birds MAY
be killed. Persons familiar with the
Renuing marsh say that few ducks
may be encountered, but those who
yield to the temptation to shoot them
may have to pay dearly. Until the
enactment of the federal game law the
shooting of woodcock at this season
was permitted. The season for wood
cock now does not open until No
vember 1.
1T is evident that the trainers OF
the law We're not familiar with the

is almost a matter of impossbility TO
find a woodcock in this section as late
as November l."
sportsmen say they are going to make
an effort to get the law relating to
woodcock shooting changed.

Helm Plays Last Gard.

While the battle still was in progress
Admiral Helm played his last card. The
seventeen submarines. modified at
Block Island the preceding night, were
following the movements of the Red"
transports. but keeping well in shore
as a last line of defense. Daylight
found them within an hour or two of
the chosen landing point of the in
vaders. Admiral Helm ordered them
forward In a desperate effort to destroy
the troopships, but they Were not equal
to the task, and the transports and
their shielding fighting ships steamed
by victorious.

Fleet Cuts Off Attack.

Admiral Helm drove his battle feet
forward to intercept the enemy at
daylight He sighted the RED" ships
at o'clock this morning. The trans
port train was steaming in toward the
Long Island coast with its destroyer
screen thrown out to southwark. Dur
ing the night, however, the Red" bat
tie feet also had come up, and steam
ing parallel to the transports and be-
posed itself to cut off Admiral Helms
attack.
The fleets engaged promptly, but the
Blue" position was hopeless. To cut
off the rush of the transports for the
coast it had to swing sharply to the
west. AS the Blue" ships came to the
turn they filed in one at a time and
caught the concentrated fire of Admiral
MayoS guns.

units OF the RED" feet at pm Au-
gust %. They were 500 miles OF tho

dared not attack such a force, and pre-
sun1ably fed for safety.

ton, sighted the Red" transport train
seventy-five miles off the New Jersey

lowed the transports. keeping Admiral
Helm informed. At that time the blue"
| battle feet was fifteen miles farther in

the Benham reported that three enemy
battleships and the transport train had
headed in shore to mako landing.

ANN|H|LATES BLUE
Invading Army Landed at Far
RockaWay After Decisive
Defeat of Defenders.
BIGGEST WAR GAME EVER
UNDERTAKEN BY u. S. NAVY
Two superdreadnaughts Are Lost by
Victors-Results Announced by
Admiral Knight, Umpire.

The greatest war game ever under
taken by the American navy ended yes
terday with a victory for Admiral
Mayo's Red" fleet. which theoretically
wiped out the defending blue" fleet
and landed an invading army at Far
Rockaway Beach, Long Island.
Rear Admiral Knight. acting as UNI
pire, announced the result IN his re-
port to the Navy Department
"Maneuver completed Red and Blue
bodies engaged $50 to 1880 this morn
ing ten miles southeast Of Ambrose
| lightship. Blue decisively defeated.
Red gaining command of sea. Red ef-
fects landing at Far Rockaway and

Dramatic Fight Off Lightship.
The final report closely followed one
announcing that Rear Admiral Helms
Blue defending fleet virtually had
been annihilated in a dramatic fight off
Scotland lightship at the entrance OF
New York harbor. With the exception
of few light craft. the entire Blue"
fleet was sunk" The full extent of
the Red" losses was not known last
night, although early reports showed
that they Included the superdread-
naughts Nevada and Texas and two
destroyers
With Admiral Helms feet out OF the
| way, only thin line of submarines re-
manned to protect the coast. Then
| these, too, were quickly disposed of by
the Red fleet and with nothing left
to interrupt the landing of troops from
his transports, Admiral Mayo was de-
clared victor in the game and the ships.
Red" and Blue alike, started for New
port after four days of arduous duty
at sea.
Helm Completely Puzzled.
The story OF the game as pieced to-
gether from radio reports to the Navy
Department indicates that the tactics
| of Admiral Mayo completely puzzled
Admiral Helm and forced him to ac-
| cept battle in a position from which
| there was no hope of escape. The UNI
| pire declared the 'Blue" fleet destroyed
hours before the time limit of the, ac-
| ton expired.
When the game began Admiral Helms
feet was assembled at Narragansett while
Admiral Mayo with his feet and long
| transport train were 600 miles off Cape
Hatteras. At 6 am. August % Admiral
Helm received word of his enemy's loca-
ton. and his seventeen scouts swept out

The Appsm was a British liner. She
piled between the British isles and wesu

Appam left port, she was overhsuled by
q swift, but disreputable-Iooking tramp
steamer near the Canary Islands. The
tramp, which was recognized as German,
opened fire. in the meantime signalling
the Appam to heave to. The Appam tired
to fee. but the shells from the tramp
began falling on board, and when rev.
eral persons had been wounded It was de-
cided to give up"

Bethlehem and Midvale Com

DANIELS SAYS COMBINATION
HAS KILLED COMPETITION
Secretary Tells Senators U. S. Can
Buy Plant Already Equipped
for Making Plate.

Secretary Daniels stated to members
of the Senate Navy ISaairs COMMITTEES
yesterday that, in his opinion, there is a
combination among the manufacturers of
armor plate and that competition in bid
ding has been destroyed. The Secretary
was questioned by President Grace, of
the Bethlehem company. and representa-
tives of the Midvale company.
The hearings closed yesterday and a
vote will be taken next Tuesday on the
bill to authorize a governm ent srmor-
plate plant at limit of cost of ILL.,
Ooo,O ,Ooo
The Bethlehem and Midvale companies
submitted prices at which they agreed
to furnish the armor required to carry
out the Navy Departments building pro-
gram for the next nve years. The Beth
lehem company offered to furnish one
third or more Of the 24,oOe tons annually
at 1895 a ton. The Midvale company pro-
posed to make up its full capacity, which
is estimated to be 5000 tons annually, at
sae.5o a ton. The Bethlehem company
has reduced by $50 q ton the price it
quoted some months ago.
Mr.. Grace told the members Of the
committee that Il the government en-
cages in the manufacture of armor plate
the private manufacturers will go out
of it.
Secretary Daniels intimated that the
government would not be forced to build
plant to make srnor. and stated that
a private manufacturer had made an in
formal proposal to sell his plant to the
