NAVAL DISPLAY AT REVAL Remnant of Rnsslan Xavy Opens Ranks for, French Warship. Kalliere and Czar Have Several Conferences. REVAL. July 27. The harbor at Reval was bathed In sunshine for the meeting between Emperor Nicholas, of Russia, and President Fallieres. of France, which occurred this afternoon. The ceremony was similar to the in terview of King Edward end the Em peror two weeks ago. The President arrived here at 2 o'clock in the after noon on the warship Verlte, which was escorted 'toy the armored cruiser Dupont Thouars and the gunboat Casslnl, and found' awaiting him the principal part of Russia's fighting fleet. Including the battleships Slava and Tsarevitch and the cruisers Bogatyr, Oleg and Admiral Maknroff; drawn up in two lines. Marseillaise Heard Once More. The French squadron, -by making a sweeping maneuver around the end of the Russian line, took up an assigned position between the two rows, the Verlte dropping anchor midway be tween the Emperor's yacht Standart and the Dowager Empress' yacht Polar Star, which by a special mark of favor was assigned to Admiral Touchard, the French ambassador to Russia, to be used as his residence during the Presi dent's interview. As the French ships swung Into place a series of salutes was fired and the crews of both nations exchanged hearty and prolonged cheers. The strains of the Marseillaise, so long interdicted In Russia on account of its revolutionary connections, were heard on the quar terdeck of the Imperial yacht Standart and the Russian warships. Exchange of Visits. The Emperor Immediately sent Ad miral DikofY, minister of marine, to bid M. Fallieres welcome to Russia and after a short interval the French Pres ident, accompanied by his suite on a gorgeous state barge towed by a launch, proceeded to the Standart to make the acquaintance of the Russian Emperor. Emperor Nicholas met him at the gangway and greeted him with the greatest cordiality. M. Fallieres was then presented to the Empress of Russia, whose hand he kissed, after which the Imperial children and the members of the Russian squadron were presented to him. The French president wore conven tional evening clothes with a Russian order, and was a conspicuous figure among the gorgeous uniforms of the Russian officers. Czar and President Confer. The Emperor later returned the President's visit on board the Verlte and spent an hour inspecting the mod ern French warship. The interchange of visits lasted throughout the entire af ternoon and they furnished the occa sion for long Informal conversations between M. Fallieres and Emperor Nicholas. A gala dinner was served tonight on board the Standart. CALL OLD PARTIES ROTTEN Continued from Firit Page.) editor, clad In (rock coat, but looking cool despite tlie heat, bowed right and left a he walked up the center aisle and ascended the platform. The hall was in an uproar as he mounted the steps leading to the plat form. He took no notice of the demon stration, but, after remaining: on the rontrum for about three minutes in consultation with the secretary of the convention, descended Into the body of the hall, taking- a seat with the New "York delegation. His action was a signal for renewed cheering and the delegates, shouting "Hearst!" "Hearst!" immediately started on a parade around the hall chanting the name of the New York editor. Two enthusiasts from California toft-ether waved a small white banner bear ing the name of their state so violently that they snapped the staff, allowing the head of the pole and the nag to fall upon the press tables, to the peril of some of the employes of Mr. Hearst's own papers. A large gentleman of Teutonic extraction, carried away by his enthusiasm, attempt ed to stride along the press tables, but they were not built for such weight as he, and he soon sought safety In flight. The parade continued for several minutes be fore quiet was restored. Priest Revlxew t'proar. It was 35 minutes post" the scheduled time when the temporary aergeant-at-arms rapped for order and asked the dele gates to vacate the aisles. Milton W. Howard, of Alabama, took the gavel and Introduced Charles A. Walsh; of Iowa, eeretary of the provisional National com mittee, who read the call of the conven tion. This document declared tne purpose tot the gathering to be the foundation of an Independent party and the nam ing of candidates for President and Vie-President. He was Interrupted by cries of "Hearst." and. when one man in the balcony cried "Bryan," a etorm of hisses followed which were stilled by the gavel. Father O'Callaghsn, of Chicago, de livered the invocation. His mention of Mr. Hearst was received with an out burst of applause and Mr. Hearst, when he mounted the rostrum, escorted by a committee appointed by the chair, was given an uproarious reception. The band struck up "The Star-Spangled Banner" and the convention rose REPUBLIC HEAD en masse, cheering in wild applause. The New York delegates gave repeated chfers in honor of their leader, who stood quiet and impassive, waiting for the demonstration to subside. When quiet had been restored he began his address as temporary chairman of the convention, speaking as follows: Hearst's Opening Speech. My Friends: This Is the first National convention of th Independence party. "Whether it shall prove aa historical event or merely a pueing political Incident de lnd upon the wisdom find patriotism with which w shell deliberate and act. If the men who met In Independence Hell In Philadelphia on the Ftourth of July, 177. bed hd within them say fee line of hei tanoy, any disposition toward compromise or conception, that day would now pass as any other day upon the calendar. But the pa tiints who assembled there bad couraae In thatr hearts, determination in their minds, fetch purpose In their souls, and the Fourth of July ie saluted throa shout the world as che birthday of liberty for ail men. X1s too much, to say that our convention can ever reach, the Importance of the Beo ond Continental Cong-res, but the principle they met to declare we meet to preserve, and the liberties they assembled to bo cure we have assembled to protect. I believe, therefore, that we wtU do a aervlcs to our fellow-cttizens second only to the Inestim able service rendered by the founders of this Government if we shall found a party which will remain unfailingly faithful to th cause of the people, to the principles of 'th Declaration, of Independence and to the fundamental American Ideas ot liberty,, equality and opportunity for all. New Party Necessary. I believe that. If any party Is necessary to this country, to preserve the Government as the fathers framed It, a new party is neces sary; if any party Is necessary to promote progress an(j prosperity, to encourage the honest business man and to protect the hon est worklnffman, a new party is necessary; if any party Is necessary to represent the typical American citizen, to represent the people In their struggles with the tyrannical monopolies which constitute the trusts, a new party is necessary. In 1792 Thomas Jefferson, who had penned the principles ; of the Iecl a ration of Inde pendence, founded the Democratic-Republican party to perpetuate those principles. In 1840 this party, founded to be the party of liberty, had become the party of privi leyo and the Democratic party came into being and crystallised about the personality and principles of Andrew Jackson. In 1854 the Democratic party had become the prop erty of an arrogant aristocracy, which de nounced the self-evident truth of the Declar ation of. Independence as "self-evident lies.' Then the Republican party was born to re store the action of the Government to the principles of Washington and Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln led it to victory. Is it not time. Is there not need, for a new party which shall take up the work of the parties of Jefferson, of Jackson, of Lin coln and preserve for us and for the citi zens of the future the rights and liberties which these parties in their hour of use fulness preserved for the citizens of their time? Both Old Parties Decadent. The old parties. In this day of their de cadence, are no longer equal to this work, for they have become unfaithful to the prin ciples which inspired them and unworthy of the patriots who founded them. The Re publican party Is the open-handed, avowed hand-maiden of the trusts. It scorns those who would rescue It, repudiates those who would reform It, and glories brazenly in Its profitable Infamy. The Democratic party is merely envious of Its sordid sister s ill gotten finery. It upbraids her at one elec tion and Imitates her at the next. The Republican leaders are the political attorney's of the trusts and monopolies, the representatives in public life of those giant corporations which have superseded the people In this republic as the source of power and the seat of authority. The Demo cratic vanguard is a Falstaff's army. It Is led by a knight arrayed In a motley of modified professions and compromised prin ciples, of altered opinion and retracted statements. Baud of Boodlers and Bravos. Mr. Hearst at this point in his ad dress mentioned the names of Sullivan, Hopkins, Murphy, McClellan, Taggart, Ryan, Belmont, Bailey and Williams, describing them as officers . of the Democratic vanguard and designating? them by most uncomplimentary terms. He then resumed as follows: A Falstaff's army, whose banner bears on one side a watchword for the people and on thn other a password for the trusts, whose only object Is office at any cost, whose motto Is "after us the deluge." Assuming that Mr. Bryan himself Is all that his most ardent admirers claim him to be, a great lawyer, an enlightened states man, an inspired patriot, still a man is known by the company h keeps, and no decent Democrat can tolerate his free com panions. No citizen can let down the bars of office to such an All's band of boodlers and bravos. No prudent citizen will support a combina tion to which Taggart supplies a credit and Parker a platform, for which Bryan will pay the freight, and the people will pay the penalty. Back of both parties and underlying each are those Captain Kldds of Industry, those highwaymen of high finance, who re alize that to plunder safely the people's purse they must first possess the people's govern ment. Offered 3100,000 Bribe. When I was running for Governor in New York an emissary of one of the biggest men in Wall street called ou me and said his client offered to contribute 1 00,000 to my campaign fund and to raise f 100,000 more If my views were reasonable in regard to honest business. I told the emissary that the offer was de clined with thanks. I said that the gentle men making It were merely proposing to waste their good' money, for whatever busi ness was honest I would deem It my duty as a public official to promote and encourage It without any f 1O0.0OO bribes, and whatever business was dishonest not all the money In Wall street would influence my attitude to ward It. I merely mention this incident to show what I believe should be the attitude of any honest candidate and the policy of any honest party. No lawyer would serve his client honestly who would receive a retaining fee from tne opposite side, and no party can honestly rep resent the citizens where their interests con flict with the exactions of the trusts. If it be contaminated by a corporation fund and subsidized into silence and subserviency. Policy for New Party. t urge our party to take a broad and liberal stand toward the legitimate business enter prises of the country, but to distinguish be tween honest business everywhere and those criminal concerns which plunder through po litical pull and pay for political protection. Good wine needs no bush and honest business- needs no bribe. Honest, business and prosperity are almost synonymous terms. As one develops the other increases; when one Is unduly disturbed the other falls. Reforms must be made as the country de velops and the people progress, but these reforms should be carrrled out by those in authority without spite or prejudice, without egotism, sensationalism or without a brass band or a big stick. Not all who ask to be let alone really want to be let alone. The thief may well ask to be let alone in his thievery, but the legiti mate business man should ask for all the encouragement that an intelligent business administration can properly provide. It 4s a fundamental function of government to keep the peace and to keep the peace it must in terfere to prevent fraud and violence and ex tortion sad oppression. Tt la a fundamental function ot government to maintain morality but to maintain morality It must interfere to secure a public morality as well as a personal morality. Wants Constructive Platform. It 1. a lorltlmata and proper function of the Government to - promote conditions that will Increase wealth and brlrtgr about a Just distribution of wealth; that will eecure la creased profit of business men and Insure a fair division of profits far bones worklnamen. We aU want prosperity and, what Is more. we want prosperity for all. I urfre our party, therefore, to be int.Ul-g-ently and courageously constructive, not merely obstructive, like th. Republican party, nor destructive, like the Democratic party. The Republican platform says nothing and means nothing;. It is a platform of statis tical invention and political evasion. It la obviously the product of a party whose sole purpose is to stand pat and whose sole desire is to stay pat. The Demooratlc platform con tains some irood and original things, but, as has been said, the original things are not good and the good things are not original. It was built by political Jackdaws who feathered thtr nests with the plumes of others without understanding their signld canc. or intention as to their performance. It is the habitation of a hermit crab, which has no slwll of Its own and invades th first convenient one without regard to prop erty or propriety. It is a platform, too, ot reconciliation and retraction, of atonement and apology, of harmony and hypocrisy, for in compliance with a former compact Parker has pronounced peace. Bill Bailey has poured Standard Oil upon th troubled wa ters and Bryan haa killed not only th. fatted calf but the koom that laid the golden egg. ' Cannot Serve Two Masters. No man oan serve two masters, and no man can conciliate th. conflicting e!enoents of the Democratic party. lie who trie, must serve one and deoelve the other, must make public pretense to the people and piivat. compact with the trusts. Our party Is not a party ot factions or cliques or classes. We have - no warring wings to paoify ; no contradictory declarations to modify: no corrupt bosses to satisfy. Let us act boldly and speak plainly. Let us make a platform mo clear and so sincere that ery cltlxen will understand our po sition and hate confidence in our intention.

Mr. Hearst delivered his address with Intense earnestness, driving home his points In an emphatic manner that car ried the convention with him. His de scription of. Mr. Bryan as the "Knight In Motley" called forth great laughter. and his reference to others also caused laughter. At the conclusion of his ad dress he was given an ovation that con tinued for several minutes. After Mr. Hearst, James 0"Neil, of Rhode Island, presented to the temporary chairman a "union label' gavel. Another gavel was presented by J. O. Bush, ot New York. While the latter was speak ing a delegate in the rear called: J'Has that gavel got the label on it?" Mr. Hearst then made a brief speech of acceptance. Reuben B. iLyon, of New York, was called to the chair and directed the sec retary to read the membership lists of the various convention committees. It was announced that all the committees could meet immediately after the adjourn ment of the convention. There are no contests for seats and the business be fore all the committees, with the excep tion of that on resolutions, was expected to be largely perfunctory. After an address by C. A. Wlndle, of Chicago, the convention adjourned until 2 o'clock tomorrow. The committee on rules and permanent organization which met after the con vention selected Charles H. Walsh, ot Iowa, as permanent chairman and adopt ed a rule that no speech from the plat form should exceed Ave minutes In length and that no delegate should be heard upon one subject more than once. The committee on resolutions organised by electing Howard S. Taylor, of Chi cago, as chairman. CANDIDATES GROWING BIST Hlsgen May Gain w York Votes AVhen Long WlthdravrB. CHICAGO, July 27.

Additional returns received account for about one-half the vote cast in last Saturday's Democratic primary. They make it certain that Gov ernor Campbell has been renominated by a majority of about "5,000 and that At torney-General Davidson has also been renominated by a majority which may reach 25,000. Returns so far to hand show a major ity against the proposition to submit a prohibition bill, but the margin is so nar- now that it will require the full count to determine what the result has been. J. L. Robinson, for Land Commissioner; B. S. Cousins, for Superintendent of Pub lic Instruction; A. B. Davidson, for Lieutenant-Governor, and A. B.
