The De:nicra:ic state convention here today had m ire jiromlnent men as dele gates than any convention of Democrats In Ohio for many years. It was oth erwise distinguished by the nomination of Colonel Kilbourne. which waa ap propriately called one of "spontaneous combustion." How-ells, Hidy, Alshire and Hull man were favorite at great odds frm the start. Y ning was sprung as a surprise and nominated over Smoots, who had been such a favorite that the other would not previously en ter the race for clerk of the lupreroe court. None of the delegate outside of Cleveland knew- Young, and he wo nominated because Cuyahoga wanted him. Cuyahoga could get anything it wanted except rh head or the tate ticket after .he Johnson amendment were Ingrafted Into the McLean plat fcrm anJ that document a amended was adpted with equanamity. It was currently reported that John son desired the nomination of Monnett as attirney-gen.'ril. and the McLean men wanted Monnett defeited. At any rate the defeat of Monnett wa so de cisive as to be ;he feature of the con vention. Monnett as attorney-general had brought suit against the Standard Oil Company ani oth 'r corporations to cancel their chirtrs under the anti trust laws. In the all"gej stampede "for principle rather than men," the most striking turn of the conv.'nti.m waa on Bryan. The most bltt r things were said on his leadership this morning, when It was said that his name should not be men tioned and that there should not be any reference to eit'i- r of the national plat forms upon which .ie made his cam palgns. After the plan had been agreed on, one of the twenty-Jne members of that committee offered a minority re port reaffirming ;he Kansa City plat form and expressing confidence In Bry an, and he received only six votes out of the 950 deUgites on his substitute for the platform .preamble. A few moments after the platform was adopteJ one of these six delegates called attention to the fact that pic tures of other Democrats were displayed In the hill and none of Bryan as here tofore. He atart'd to carry a small banner with Bryan's picture on It to the platform. Th aisles were ordered cleared and the picture did not reach Its destination. It was trampled under foot and spoiled during- the wild dem onstration when Kilbourne was escort ed to the hall. TURKEY PAYS INDEMNITY. WASHINGTON.

State department officials feel the greatest satisfaction at the settlement of these claims. Secretary Hay had been told by diplomat that he never would be able to collect them. MADE HAD INVESTMENTS. Affairs of Endowment Rank Under Hlnzey Drifted Into Insolvency. CHICAGO, July 10. John A. Hinrey, former prsid'nt of the board of con trol of the endowment rank of the Knights of Pythla. appeared before the supra ne lodge today and admitted the report subml'ted yesterday to be true. The repirt shows that the affair of the endv.vnvnt rank, under Hinieys mating meat, drifted Into practical In. solvency. "f $.710,440 invested und-r under Hinz-y'a direction nearly two ifclrtt e it Into enterprises w hich ren der I them univiilalile p, pay death claims. Other fun is went Into channels for which there 1 no accounting. The former president of the board of control d' clare that he had done his best to keep the treasury of the En dowment rank In a sound condition but death claims bad amountd up. Invest ments had turned out failures and It had been frequently necegsiry Vi over draw the ranks account at the bank. The report doeg not charge Hinzey and others with misusing funds, but simply state that they were badly Invested. THE CON8IDINE3 CASE. More Evidence T?nd:ng to Upset The ory of 'he Prosecution.
