SPRINGFIELD. 111.. July 5. Thomas
23. "Watson, of Georgia, for President, and
Thomas H. Tibbies, of Nebraska, for
.Vice-President, were nominated by tho
Populist Convention today. The names of
William V. Allen, of Nebraska, and Sam
uel W. Williams, of Indiana, were also
placed before the convention for Presi
dent, but before the list of states had been
completed In the roll call, their names
were withdrawn, and "Watson was nom
inated by acclamation. Ex-Senator Al
len made good his word that he would not
enter Into any scramble for the nomina
tion, and while the nominations were being-
made he twice instructed the chair
man of the Nebraska delegation to say
that his name must not go before the
convention. In the face of this, however,
he received over 40 votes.
"Whether Mr. "Watson will accept the
nomination, no one In the convention
eeemed to know, and all efforts to secure
some definite Information from Mr. "Wat
eon's friends failed. "Watson was quoted
as saying- If the Democrats at St. Louis
nominated Hearst, he would support him
for President.
"Williams, of Indiana, received only a
lew votes, and soon withdrew, moving- to
make "Watson's nomination unanimous.
The Platform.
The committee on resolutions In its re
port to the convention reaffirmed adher
ence to the basic truths of the Omaha
platform of 1S92, and of the subsequent
platforms of 1S6C and 1900. The platform
then demands that all money be issued
directly by the Government, every dollar
to bo a full legal tender; demands postal
savings banks; upholds the right of labor
to organize, and favors the enactment of
legislation for the improvement of the
condition of the wageearners; demands
the initiative and referendum; favors pro
hibition of the alien ownership of lands;
demands the withdrawal of special priv
lliges of trusts and monopolies, and de
clares the Government should own and
control the railroads, telegraphs and tele
phone systems, and should provide a par
cels post. The platform was adopted
unanimously.
Nominations for President were then
called for. The name of Thomas E. "Wat
son, of Georgia, was presented by Na
' tional Chairman J. A. Parker, of Ken
tucky. Ex-Congressman R. D. Suther
land, of Nebraska, named William V.
Allen, of Nebraska, but said Senator Al
len had authorized him to say that tho
nomination would not be accepted unless
It came unanimously. Samuel W. Will
lams, of Indiana, was placed In nomina
tion by Thomas Wadsworth, of Indiana,
UGHTNING STARTS BIG PERE.
Large Grain Elevator Is Burned and
Three Lives Lost.
BOSTON, July 5. The Immense grain
elevator of the Boston & Maine Railroad
Company, one of the largest In the world,
together with three of the company's'
freighthouses on piers Nos. 1 and 2, Mystic
wharf, Charlestown, were burned tonight,
entailing losses of over $1,000,000.
Three lives are supposed to have been
lost Thirty-five sailors of the Allan
steamer Austria, which was lying at pier
No. 1, Jumped overboard to save them
selves from the flames, which had com
municated to their vessel. Olga Olsen,
boatswain's mate; James Flynn, fireman,
and Patrick N. Meehan. fireman, are the
supposed victims. Flynn's body has been
recovered. '
Most of the crew swam ashore, but 11
of their number required hospital atten
tion. Before the fire could be controlled
all the upper works had been burned.
The fire started during a heavy thunder
storm, when a bolt of lightning struck one
of the freighthouses. In which fiB stored
a quantity of hay. The flames spread rap
Idly to adjoining buildings. Including the
elevator, and the larger part of the fire
apparatus of the city was summoned to
save other property. The elevator Is fig
ured at $400,000. Losses on the freight
houses, their contents, the pier and the
steamer Austria will easily swell the total
to more than $1,000,000.
Among the steamship companies who
will suffer losses on freight deotroyed are
the Allan line, the Scandinavian and the
Wilson.
