widow of Richard A. Webber, died at $3.50
o'clock this morning in her home at 100

(Chase Allen. She attended the schools
of that place and in August, 1854, mar
ried Richard Allen Webber, also of New

Dental sentiment until after the plat
form has been adopted and the eandi
dates know definitely upon what char

peeted to stand.
There were no surface conditions
when the convention met today. There
was no material change in the rela-
tive standing of the presidential can
didates. The full committee on plat
form occupied the hours before the
opening of the convention, which was
set for / p. m, in giving hearings to
various interests that had planks to
offer for the platform. The subeommit-
tee meanwhile remained inactive. The
committee on rules also met early and
threshed out the unit rule question, an
effort being made to adopt some regu-
lations that would not come into con-
flict with state primary laws.
Delegates were expeetant as to
whether nominating speeches would be
reached today or tonight. The COM
mittee on rules decided that nominating
speeches may be delivered in advance
of the adoption of the platform, but
that balloting should not begin until
the declaration of principles had been
decided upon. If there is no extended

Convicted Murderers of Chain Store
Managers Gain Nothing By
Lunatic's Confession.

BOSTON, June 29.-The motion for
new trial of George f. Rollins and
Charles L. Rollins, brothers, who were
found guilty of the killing of two chain
store managers here three years ago. was
denied in the superior court today. An
alleged confession by Jesse Mercy, made
while he was an inmate of an insane
asylum in Pennsylvania, was the basis
for the motion in each case. Merey's
sister testified that her brother had re-
pudiated the alleged confession in con-
versations with her.
Charles /. Rollins is serving a life
sentence for second degree murder be-
cause of the shooting of Edward p.

gree, for which the law provides electro
