The convention was overwhelmingly Democratic, being; composed of 100 Demo crats and 12 Republicans. Probably fhe most important measure killed by the convention was the provis ion relative to separate coaches for whites and negroes, although the Demo crats had been pledged to insert It.

Oklahoma will be a prohibition sate, the most stringent liquor law In exist ence prohibiting not only the sale, but the introduction of liquor Into the state, .being provided for. The enabling act pro vided that Indiiin Territory must accept prohibition tor 21 yeans. The convention nrovided that the whole state shall vote on the question and there is no doubt tlmt the terms of the enabling act wiu be made uniform over the entire state. Provision is made for a State Railway Commission, to be elective, and a 2-cent passenger fare order. Strict Control of Corporations.

DAUGHTERS STILL ALIVE (Continued from First Page.) South, and hazarded a g-uess that the wounded man In the committee had given up his arm for the sake of his country- More and more eloquently did Mr. Tucker plead in the name of God and country, and the one-armed patriot, for the support of his cause. A friend came to him at the close of his speech and congratulated him on his fine stand for - patriotism, and his practical success in Raining his point. "But," he added, "for Heaven's sake don't say anything more about that one-armed man. He has never been near a battlefield. That arm was bitten off by a mad horse, and he doesn't know "forward march' from 'fire.' " Mrs. Tohlande Degg. who is confined In a county jail In Alabama, sentenced to a 23-year term of Imprisonment for manslaughter, has devised numerous ways of beguiling the tedium of her enforced retirement. The most unique Is to have In her cell a private tele phone, by means of which she can chat with her friends whenever it pleases her. Mrs. Dkk has appealed from her sentence, and expects to be liberated soon. Having wealth and political power she has been granted many priv ileges not ordinarily the lot of pris oners. They say she keeps the operator busy with her numerous calls. It is the only Instance ever known where a tele phone has been put in a prison cell. Sacred Scarabs From Egypt. Three American families are the proud possessors of sacred scarabs from Egypt, not the usual kfhd that any tourist with plethoric pocketbook can buy from the Arabs at the foot of Cheops, but scarabs that at one time ' adorned the neck of no other than that great potentate, Rameses II, the Pharoah of the Oppression. These scarabs were secured by the late Charles Dudley Warner, who was pres ent at the opening of the Rameses tomb about 20 years ago when the famous Pharoah mummy was exhumed. He furnished some of the funds for the work, and as his share of the royal spoils took the three scarabs that hung on a cord about the neck of this proud king who had driven the Israelites Into exile so many weary centuries before. The three roughly carved beetles of some black stone were taken by Mr. Warner and set in rings made from a lump of virgin gold that had been given him by a friend in Mexico. One of these rings he kept, and it is now a treasure valued by his heirs: the sec ond he gave to Dr. R. B. Stover, of KUhmond. Virginia, and it Is now the property of hie widow, who uses It as a most unique stamp for her personal letters; while the third was given an other friend, Thomas Nelson Page, the I creator of "Heh Lady" and "Marse Chan. A visit to Boston is .never complete until one has pone to Cambridge to see the former home of Longfellow. ItBtands on a lot terraced up from the street, just aa it was built long before the Revolution, when it was the home of the Craigies. Later it passed into history as the head quarters of George Washington when he was in Boston, and still later as the home of that most popular of all American poets. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. It Is now the property of his unmarried. daughter. Miss Alice Longfellow, who Is the "grave Alice" of the famous poem. The Children's Hour." The other daugh ters, "laughing Allegra and Edith with golden hair," were married some years ago and went to live in homes on each side of the old Cralgie mansion. Poet's Study as He Left It. The fair chatelaine of the famous home has kept it almost the same as It was when her father died. In Summer time she may be seen, dressed in white, mov ing slowly over the beautifully kept lawn or through the great rooms hallowed by the presence of the children s poet. She has kept the old clock on the first land ing of the stair, and it recalls the one her father knew when he heard the re frain "Never, forever: forever, never." and wrote a poem about it. His study he keeps just as he left It. and shows Intimate friends the chair that the chil dren of Cambridge gave him. the' chair made from the "spreading chestnut tree" under which the "Village Blacksmith" had his shop and quaint forve. A good story comes from Montana. which shows the cautious business meth ods of J. J. Hill, the great railroad mag nate. In the early '90s Hill and Marcus Daly completed' the Butte. Anaconda at Paciflo Railway from Butte to Aana- conda. This little "Jerk water" line was an exclusive ore road, and the owners were experimenting to ascertain the best equipment for handling the Anaconda output. At this time the Union Pacific was putting in some brand-new steel gon dola hopper cars, wnlcn were aomiraoiy adapted to this class of traffic on ac count of their great strength and quick, easy method of unloading. Hill conceived the Idea of making a'thorough test before buying any of the cars for his own use. He arranged to have a string of them taken up on a hill at Butte, and turned loose down a 15 per cent grade. Part of them were loaded and part empty. The wreck was a success, and so were the cars. They stood the shock so well that Hill ordered 250 of the same type, many of which are still in service. Seldom has a book had such an ap propriate title as Ouida's "Under Two Flags," but the novel was written ana hung fire in the publisher's hands for a month because the author could not name it satisfactorily. A dozen titles had been suggested and rejected, when one day her little niece ran up to her gaily waving a flag in each hand. "See," she said, "I shall kiss you first -under this flag, and then under this." As Ouida was kissed under the French and American flags, the idea came to her to call the new book Under Two Flags." It is so well named that one would think it Just named it self. Tomorrow "How the Fashions Start." FORECAST OF FUTURE WAR ACSTRIAN PREDICTS AMERICAN DEFEAT BY JAPAN. bays Japan Is Feverishly Preparing and Has Good Chance of Cap turing Pacific Coast. BERLIN, March 15. Captain Ignace Rodic. of the general staff of the Aus trian-Hungarian army, has published a pamphlet entitled "The Prospects of the Future American-Japanese War," After discussing the armies and navies and the. aters of war. he concludes by saying that the unprotected Pacific Coast of the United States offers excellent chances for the success of the Japanese. He declares Japan is working feverishly to complete her military and naval equip ments. adding that during the last few months 60.000 men have been at work day and night in the arsenals? turning out guns and small arms, and stating that the cartridge manufactories at Toklo, where in all about 20,000 men are em ployed, have turned out daily 600 rifles. Captain Kodic also asserted that the pro jectile works at Toklo make 600 shells per day for the artillery. . JAPANESE SWARM AT EI, PASO Mexicans Crowded Out, Suffering Penalty for Helping Immigration. EL PASO. Tex.. March 15. So great has been the influx of Japanese through this port that hundreds have stopped in El Paso, readily securing employment as house servants, displacing Mexican help. The result is that the Mexican authori ties are taking cognizance of the matter and propose action looking to the abate ment of the Japanese immigration unless the new amendment to the United States immigrant laws brings relief. An immigration inspector stated tonight that every vessel from the continent and the Hawaiian Islands arriving at Manza nlllo. Mex.. brought from 400 to 1700 Jap anese and that, since Mexico has facili tated their entry into this country, it was not a matter of much surprise that they should suffer In consequence. . .

LEADING STOCKS STRONG Jubilant Cheers Mark Return of Confidence After Two Weeks De cline Large Part of Loss in Price Is Regained. NEW YORK, March 15. An unusual scene was enacted on the floor of the Stock Exchange today just after the mar ket had closed strong and buoyant, in sharp contrast to the demoralization of yesterday. Brokers gathered around the trading postt and cheered loudly In demonstration of their relief and satis faction In today's change of speculative sentiment. -Congratulations were ex changed all aroung the room on the fact that the members of the exchange, with out exception, had successfully passed through the severe declines in prices of the past two weeks and hopes were gen erally expressed that the worst was over. A feature of the day was a statement by William Rockefeller, declaring that the cause of the decline was a mystery. To day's market opened very strong; at much higher prices than yesterday's closing figures, Reading leading with a rise of 11 points. Amalgamated Copper and Union Pacific also were buoyantly strong and with Reading practically the whole list shot upward. There were the usual re actions, hut the tone held relatively strong. Brokers All Found Solvent. It was known in Wall street that bank ers had reached their offices early and that a careful Investigation of the situ ation did not reveal any cause of anxiety as to the solvency of any banking or brokerage house. This knowledge had much effect on sentiment and, together with the announcement of Government relief for the money market, gave the traders confidence that the situation threatened no grave danger and that the money market would be able to care for all immediate requirements. The trading continued active with the general tone firm throughout, even the 15 per cent money rate being of little effect. At the close the market leaders showed the fol lowing advances from yesterday's close: Amalgamated Copper 13, American Smelting 10, Anaconda 9, Canadian Pa cific 6. St. Paul 9. Great Northern 6. ftew York Central 54. Missouri Pacific 64, Northern Pacific 4. Pennsylvania 4i. Reading 12. Southern Pacific Vii. Union Pacific 114, United States Steel 314, and united States Steel preferred Sis- Fluctuations in Opening Hour. The first buoyant flight of prices was Immediately taken advantage of to re sume the unloading of stocks, and prices began to crumble again in a manner which revived the uneasiness prevalent yesterday. Fluctuations were very wild Land feverish for a time, below the opening level, but without all or tne opening gains being sacrificed. It was hoped that the large disburse ments falling due today of dividends and interest would cause a prompt re turn to the money markets of funds tied up In preparation for these dis bursements. In the same .way it was expected that payments of subscrip tions on new stock and railroad notes would be redeposited with the banks and become immediately available in the money market. Some Stocks Forced Down. In a few stocks there was evidence of further forced liquidation, the Rock Island and Mackay stocks falling away. Supporting measures were persisted in and the wild fluctuations of the first dealings showed a narrowing tendency. - Shortly after 11 o'clock, it was stated that the Cloaring-House members had gone through without difficulty. Trading by noon approximated 1.000.000 shares. Business fell off after midday, with the advance in call loans to 15 per cent. Banks and brokers generally report, ed an all-around demand for odd lots of the better class of securities by small in vestors. Call money declined to 12 per cent be fore 1 o'clock, and at 1:30 to 7 per cent. At one of the banks it was admitted that a few loans had been closed out to day because of inability of the brokers to respond to calls for additional collateral. The rise in Union Pacific In the last hour revived rumors of a change of con trol of that property from Harriman to Morgan interests. At Mr. Harrlman's office the rumor was said to be too ab surd for denial, and at the office of J. P. Morgan & Co. it was said that no foundation existed for the story. ROCKEFELLERS - ARE BCTERS William Says No Adequate Cause for Stock Depreciation. NEW YORK, March 16. In response to an inquiry from the Associated Press, William Rockefeller said: "The present astonishing decline In the values of securities is as much a mystery to me as it can be to anyone. I know that public confidence has been disturbed, but I do not think that it should have been in any such measure as to Justify so great a fall In prices. With genuine overwhelming prosperity throughout the country, there certainly seems no ade quate reason for It. As for. myself and my associates, our faith in the future of the country has not been shaken at all. and we have been buyers and not sellers throughout the last ten days. "Throughout these troubles we have done and are doing all we can to restore and maintain public confidence. It is very clear to me that the people who are throwing away their securities at panic prices will sorely regret It within the next six months. CHICAGO CANNOT BE SCARED Has Plenty of Reserve Caeb Specu lators Need "Bumping." ' CHICAGO, March 15. Characterizing the slump in st6cks aa a "New York affair" and declaring that the agitation relative to the railroads haa had little to do with the Wall-street panic, Chi cago bankers yesterday asserted that they are not troubled over the outlook and that Chlcag-o and the Middle ITest would be In no wise affected. There was manifest among the bank ers, with perhaps one or two excep tions, . no alarm or misgivings. The consensus of opinion was that the rate for money in Chicago, per cent, would not Be lifted, that there are millions In reserve here which'can be utilized and that the country as a whole is unusual ly prosperous. One other idea of special Interest also was expressed. It was that the "bump ing of the specufators" out East will do the Nation as a whole good.

Eckels, president of the Commercial National Bank, was one of the financiers who looked on the situa tion with some pessimism. He claimed. However, that there is too much agita tion and that the railroads are being unnecessarily assailed. James B. Forgan. president of the First National Bank, did not go julte so far, but said he felt that the wave of antagonism against the railroads may have had as much to do with the stock market slump as any other sin gle influence. Other bankers were not of the sen' feeling. They claimed stocks had bc;n steadily tumbling for weeks, and that there was the culmination: that it was well to clear the atmosphere occasion ally and to take lessons whica fortune Is apt to give.

CORTEITOU SAVED, THIiAliAI Schlff Says Roosevelt's Course Gave Corporations Lesson. AUGUSTA. Ga., March 15. Jacob Schiff. of New York, who is at a hotel "near Aiken, S. C, said today concerning yes terday's Wall-street panic: "The prompt and clear action of Sec retary Cortelyou saved the day. I have strong hopes that much good will result." In reference to the present railroad Sit uation, he said: "The railroads and the people will be brought nearer together. The welfare of one is indlssolubly connected witrl the success of the other. President Roose velt did not bring about the mufldle; he simply recognized earlier than most oth ers whither we were drifting.
