Independent Ticket May Be Named at Bellingham. COTTERILLANDTHE PLATFORM lingham at 2 P. M. on Tuesday pre cludes any possibility of finishing the work In a single day and also makes It probable that the delegates will not gather until Monday morning. The leaders -will go north at that time and Monday gives plenty of chance for the delegates to get to work on the ticket Side entertainments of Tuesday night will keep the delegates busy and allow the finishing touches to be put on the paltform and ticket if the Turner lead ers want the entire question to go over until Wednesday. Ghost of the Olympla Convention Will Rise to Confront the Demo cratic Delegates Blackman Nurses a Sore Spot. SEATTI.ES, Wash., July 30. (Special.) The ghost of the Olympia convention, held three months ago, will rise to confront the Democratic delegates at Bellingham, next week. It may be the Democratic State Convention will have no supersti tious dread of ghostly apparitions, and there Is no reason to believe that the coming state convention will give the Olympia meeting much consideration. But the Olympia ghost threatens to take substantial form In the shape of the Cot terill revolt and the nomination of an in dependent ticket. The Olympia platform must bo repudi ated in spirit to make the declarations of the state Democracy harmonize with the National platform. The Olympia conven tion cried for a reaffirmation of the Kan sas City and Chicago platforms: the Bel lingham meeting must Ignore both, and be content with a mere indorsement of the National platform and ticket, unless it desires to go to the length of heartily commending the principles of the later Democracy. t In Its Olympia convention the state Democracy made this declaration: "We believe those principles (Declara tion of Independence and writings of Thomas Jefferson) were correctly applied In the platform, declarations of the Na tional Democratic party in 1S96 and 1900, and so far as these declarations are ap plicable to present problems, we reaffirm them heartily and insist upon their re affirmation by the Democratic National Convention soon to assemble In St. Louis. We likewise insist on the nomination of candidates in sympathy with those dec larations, and whose lives and records constitute an assurance that they loyally and earnestly give them effective appli cation in the conduct of the Government." Then, as a further and stronger exposi tion of Democratic sentiment at that time, the Olympia convention demanded that Its National delegation vote only for such platform declarations as were con sistent in letter and spirit with the Olym pia platform; to oppose any policy which Involved compromise or surrender of those principles, and to oppose the nomination of any candidate who did not actively support the tickets and platforms of 1S06 and 1900. The Olympia convention refrained from an open indorsement of Hearst and a re pudiation of Parker, because it would hurt Turner. But it elected as four of the ten delegates men who were Parker supporters, and one or two of the others were only restrained from open pro-Park' er sentiment by home Influences. At the National Convention this dele gation switched over to Parker after the nomination of the New York Jurist was made apparent. In itself, this action could not be construed as committing state Democrats to a repudiation of the Olympia platform, but taken with other acts of the delegation it has that effect. For instance, when the telegram from Parker declaring the gold standard to be Irrevocably established was read and an answer proposed that assured Mr. Parker hl3 sentiments were not inconsistent with the platform, the Washington delegation voted solidly for tho telegram. This, by way of sustaining the principles of 1836 and 1900. M. M. Godman, the Washington member on the platform committee, op posed any financial plank or reference to the Kansas City platform. Of course, the state convention will ig nore these inconsistencies. There will be nothing said tnat reflects upon the Na tional delegation, for that would affect George Turner, who will probably be nominated for Governor, and who, in any event, will be the natural leader in the state campaign. But in the mere indors ing the National platform and candidates, which the convention must do, the excuse will be given for the independent move ment by the pro-Bryan sympathizers. Already King County has forgotten Its Spring convictions. The King County platform adopted this week expressly in dorses the St. Louis document and ap proves of the National Convention's plat form. On April 25, when King Coun:y Democrats met to choose a state delega tion, Jeffersonlan principles were lauded, and the convention added this plank to its platform: "We glory in the fidelity and courage with which the Democratic party in 189S and 1900 asserted these principles of true Democracy In the face of an arrogant plutocracy in possession of the American Government. We demand a platform for 1904 consistent with those adopted at Chicago and Kansas City, breathing the same spirit of Jef fersonlan Democracy, and applied with the same Democratic defiance of mo nopoly and special privilege." In the King County outline of what the National delegation should be, It was urged they should "oppose every proposal offered with the allurement of 'success or in the guise of 'har mony,' which involves or implies any surrender of the principles of Democ racy, enunciated in the Kansas City platform." Every one in politics knows that George F. Cotterill was responsible for these declarations, and King County Influence determined the State Conven tion's declarations. Cotterill was on the platform committee .at the State Convention, and though not all of his principles' were Included in the plat form, enough was given to indorse tho King County idea. In the circum stances, Cotterlll's" bolt is logical. State Labor Commissioner William Blackman will go to the Bellingham convention nursing a sore spot. He Is Incensed over the King County declar ation that the factory law is being Ig nored and is waiting for revenge. Of course, Blackman traces the resolution homo to Dudley G. Wooten, the attor ney who was seeking a chance to even up a score with Blackman because he lost a Thurston County damage suit. But Blackman finds another interesting coincidence. The two men that fought In the plat form committee for the antl-BIackman resolution are the two that held the platform committee for three hours trying to force through a pro-PIerson resolution on the question of the Lieutenant-Governor. Wooten was sup ported in both instances by v. G. Frost, a strong Pierson supporter. From these circumstances Blackman and his friends believe that the attack was made, in part, to weaken him before the State Convention. The action of the state committee in fixing the hour .for convening at Bol- CABINET DISCUSSES LABOE. Conference Touches on Matters of Considerable Importance. WASHINGTON, July 30. Labor condi tions generally throughout the country were the subject of a conference which the President held at the White House today with Attorney-General Moody, Sec retary Metcalf, of the Department of Labor and Commerce, and Commissioner of Labor Carroll D. Wright. Several mat ters which have been appealed to the President were considered and action upon them will be announced later- The conference was of considerable Im portance to the Administration and to labor generally. The President author ized the announcement that the Chicago strike wa3 not discussed at the confer ence. Regarding the strikes In various part3 of the country, tho President and his ad visers agreed that at no point had any of these passed beyond the scope of local treatment, nor wa3 the Administration called upon at this time to take action. As for the pending moat strike, although It was not specifically discussed at the conterence, it can be stated that the Ad ministration does not consider that a Na tional emergency has been precipitated, as was the case in the coal strike. Until such an emergency has been created there will be no official consideration of it by the Administration. Sailors III at Trieste. NEW YORK, July SO. The United States dispatch-boat Mayflower has ar rived here, says the Herald's Trieste cor respondent, bringing from the fleet at Flume three more ill sailors to be trans ferred to the hospital. Dr. Perry, of the Iowa, who was left In charge of the officers and men who are 111 with typhoid fever at the hospital, when the fleet sailed away, reports that all who are 111 are doing well, with the exception of Lieutenant Hudglns. Chaplain Isaacs, of the Kearsarge, is recovering rapidly, and It is thought ho will shortly be dis charged from the hospital. Plea for Perishing Pimas. WASHINGTON, July 30. An appeal was made to President Roosevelt today by a committee representing the Presbyterian Board of Home Missions In behalf of the Pima Indians In Arizona, who are said to be -perishing because the waters of the Gila River have been diverted from their reservation. The committee stated that no water was available for the irrigation of the Indians' land, and the Indians, who number 5000, are said to be on the verge of starvation because of the failure of their crops. The President promised to Investi gate the matter, which has been before the Interior Department for a long time. RELATIONS BROKEN 0IT. France and the Vatican Are Now at Outs. PARIS, July 30. Diplomatic cour tesy forbids the publication of the French answer until the Pope is noti fied, but Foreign Minister Delcasse last night sent M. Decourcet, the French Charge d'Affaires at the Vati can, two notes, one for the Papal Sec retary of State, announcing the rup ture, and the second a personal note instructing the Charge d'Affaires and the others of the staff of the Embassy to return to Paris immediately after his mission is accomplished, which probably will be this morning. When M. Decourcefs advices reach Foreign Minister Delcasse, the latter will im mediately request the Papal Nuncio to leave France. . It is not expected the rupture will have any immediate consequences be yond the mutual withdrawal of tho representatives of France and the Vat ican, and the suppression of the Em bassy and Nunciature, as the denuncia tion of the concordat requires prelim inary sanction. Consequently, fresh developments are improbable until the appointment of the new bishops come up. Well-informed persons do not believe that the Vatican will retaliate by withdrawing France's protectorate over the Eastern Catholics. The Rome correspondent of the. Temps telegraphs that the French Gov ernment's dispatch did not arrive at the Vatican Embassy until after the officials had left last night. and was not delivered until this morning. M. Decourcet conferred with the Papar Secretary of State, "Cardinal Merry del Val, at 10 o'clock this morning, and it is believed he will leave Rome tonight. Nuncio's Standing Lost. PARIS, July 30. Foreign Minister Delcasse this afternoon addressed a note to the Papal Nuncio to the effect that in consequence of the rupture of relations between France and the Vat ican, his mission In Paris no longer had any object. The rupture of relations between France and the Vatican does not cause surprise. It had been generally foreseen that Pre mier Combes was determined to bring it about, despite the opposition which doubt less he met from certain members of the Cabinet. The impression prevails that the government will be satisfied with having given the Vatican a lesson, and that it will not seek to repeat the concordat when Parliament reassembles. The fact that the Vatican's reply to the French note was drawn up in Italian, which is the official language neither of the church, France nor diplomacy, causes some Irritation. The note severing tho relations between France and the Vatican was couched In the following terms: "After having on several occasions pointed out the serious blow struck at the government rlshts under the concordat by the Vatican's dealing directly with the French bishops without consultation with the power with which the concordat was signed, and seeing that the pontifical sec retary of state in his reply of July 23 af firmed these proceedings, the French gov ernment ha3 decided to conclude official relations with the holy see, whose desire had become objectless." Papal Secretary of State Merry del Val says that an order to leave Parl3 would, be telegraphed to Monsignore Ldfenzelll. The nuncio left Paris tonight on his way to Rome. READY FOR CLIMB Mazamas Will Strike Out for the Summit Monday. THE PARTY IS.IN FINE SPIRITS Will Not Withdraw Letters. PARIS, July 30. Although no official an nouncement has yet been made, it can be positively affirmed that the rupture be tween France and the Vatican is com plete. The holy see's long reply to the French note, though most courteously worded, merely amounts to a polite state ment that the pope does not intend to infringe the stipulations of the Concordat, and will not withdraw the letters .calling the bishops of Dijon and Laval to Rome. President Sholes and Rodney Glisan Make Preliminary Survey of tha Route Up Shasta Will, Be an All-Day's Job. WAGON CAMP, Mount Shasta, via Sb. son, Cal., July 30. (Staff Correspondence.) A long, hard climb, but not too diffi cult for any of us. The sentence suma up the opinion expressed, by President Sholes and Rodney Glisan, regarding tha ascent of Mount Shasta. Not a little excitement was caused in camp this morning by the unexpectedly! quick return of the two gentlemen, they having started, yesterday on a sort of ad vance expedition of their own to look up the best route to the summit. Everybody crowded about them, firing questions Ilka bullets from a Nordenfeldt. "We didn't go clear to the summit,1 began Sholes, while the cook hastened, to prepare coffee, "but we went up nearly to the thumb rock from which point tho top can probably be made in about an hour and a half. After a long walk up a steep and snowy valley we take to a ridge which gives us a straight, steady Incline about as steep as an average house roof right up to the base of Thumb Rock. We attempted to go no further last night, but returned to the timber line by moonlight and camped. We watched tho heliograph on the mountain flashing a lot of rays down on Sisson.' Mr. Gllean said that no really steep rock climbing need be anticipated. "There may be a little difficulty getting off the snow on to that long ridge," he remarked, "but nothing dangerous. It is such a. long way to tho top of the mountain, however, that a party like ours must make a very early start in order to get there and back to camp before nightfull." That necessity was recognized also by Colonel Hawkins yesterday. He pressed his saddle horsa Into service as a pack animal and ener getically forwarded one pack to timber line. Mr. Farnsworth went over the trail today with another pack. Several mora packs will have to go tomorrow to get tha bedding and two days' provisions for tho outfit at tho timber line in readiness for the grand climb Monday. Today was a quiet time In camp, every body resting or making further prepara tions for the eummlt trip, such, as fas tening climbing spikes Into shoes, rubbing witch hazel on sore muscles, etc. Chef Weston does wonderful stunts with hla eheet-lron stove. His pastry, and partic ularly his morning hot cakes are the talk of the camp. Colonel Hawkins has aroused every body's Interest In the trees of the region. At the campflre last evening he gave a very interesting talk on the varieties of conifers In California and the Pacific Northwest. He told how to distinguish them and give to each its true name and explained how the degree of elevation ef fects the growth or existence of each va riety. He was followed closely and re ceived a hearty vote of thanks. Afterward Frank Riley entertained the group with a remarkably good recitation. Last night was less chilly than the flrs.t night of the encampment and everybody enjoyed a long, sound sleep. It goes with out saying that the air i3 wonderfully bracing and conducive to a good appe tite. , , 0.uis evening tho Mazamas entertained at dinner Mr. Bonnell, a Berkeley student, who is camped well up on the mountain engaged in collecting specimens, the re gion being ideal for a naturalist. Mall is brought from Sisson dally by Mrs. Koletzke, The Oregonian's messen ger. She makes nothing of the 20-mile rldo and does her housework and helps her husband, the Sisson liveryman, in many ways. Her case Is a fine advertisement for this region as a health resort, for sho was given up by the doctors a few years ago and the Sisson shoedealer said sha wouldn't live to wear out the shoes shq had purchased. RUN PAST THE SWITCH. Trolley Conductor's Error Results In a Dozen Injuries. ROCHESTER, N. Y July 20. A serious accident occurred tonight on the Roch ester, Charlotte & Manltou Railroad, a trolle'y road running along the shore of Lake Ontario, to Manltou Beach, a dis tance of about 10 miles. Thirteen persons; were seriously hurt, three or four, it & feared, fatally, and a number of others sustained minor bruises. The conductor of a west-bound train running to Manltou with only a few pas sengers aboard, ran past No. 1 switch and three-fourths of a mile further west col lided with an east-bound train of threa cars, all heavily loaded. The trains met on a sharp curve and came together at full speed. TANGIER GUARDS DOUBLED. Europeans Warned to Repair to thd City for Refuge. TANGD3R, July 30. Last night all the guards about the city were doubled and a strong mounted force patroled the out skirts until daylight. Europeans living In Isolated places have been warned to come Into the city. The diplomatic corps held a meeting today, at which Mohammed-el-Torres, the Sultan'a representative here, and two of his coun cil were present. It is believed that tho object of the conference was to discuss the present disturbed conditions. Troops Will Go to Bonesteel. BONESTEEL, S. D., July 30. Troopa have been requested by Sheriff Taylor, and Governor Herreid has agreed to send them. From August 8 until September 10, the filing period, this place will be un der martial law. The militia will arrive next week, and be on hand when the fil ing begins. The guards are considered necessary to protect $300,000 which will bo brought to town each day.
