Senator Taylor also re sponded to the calls for a speech. Chairman Bell then announced that the committee on credentials was ready to report. Christopher G. Cal feghan, the chairman of the commit tee, read the report. Callaghan declared the committee lad carefully investigated the con tests and "Recommends that in each following contests the delegations named by the national committee should be entitled to a speech, name ly, the State of Idaho. The first, second, third, four, fifth, sixth, sev enth, eighth, ninth and tenth districts f Illinois. The second, third, fourth, fifth sixth, seventh districts of New York. The nineteenth district of Ohio; the thirty-second district of Pennsylvania; the District of Colum bia in the matter of contest; the first, second, fourth, fifth and sixth dis tricts of Pennsylvania were recom mended to contests. The hall shall be seated and recognized by this conven tion as duly credited delegates and all the alternates of said districts in the State of Pennsylvania. In the matter of contest in the ninth district of Ohio the committee recommends the following to be seated as duly credited delegates and all the accredited delegates from the said districts: E. A. Powers and Dr. William Walls. When Callaghan read the decision again Guffey a few hisses and some applause was heard. In the matter f the two last lists of committee appointments from Pennsylvania, Cal laghan recommended that in view of the contest decisions the lists should Be referred back to the delegation for further action. The usual motion to adopt was followed by recognition. Mr. I. L. Strauss, of Maryland, who read the minority report which rec ommended that the contestees in the Pennsylvania cases be seated. Strauss' declaration of the action of the majority committee was a stag gering blow at the democracy of a sovereign state. Cheers. After some preliminary sparring Callaghan rec egnized the open debate of the ma jority, and declared that Guffey had formed an alliance republican machine in Philadelphia, to smother the demo cratic votes, and "When we consid ered all the evidence it is impossible to escape conclusion of real democracy of Philadelphia has been kept at home hy an alliance, one element of democ racy with the dominant republican machine that stay. John D. Bellamy, one of the sign ers of the minority, brought forth a storm of disapproval, when he assert ed that the republicans who went to the polls as democrats had a right to liave votes counted as democrats. Bellamy explained that the democra tic party was ready to open its doors to anyone who desired to adopt its principles. There was some applause at this and the speaker soon brought lis address to a close. Governor Haskell, of Oklahoma, elosed for majority discussed sarcas tically Bellamy's contention and as serted Bellamy, under his argument, might as well have been selected a delegate to the Chicago convention. Governor Haskell charged tire Penn sylvania contestees as being tools of the Standard Oil Company. When Senator Gore, the blind sen ior of Oklahoma called the rostrum this afternon to make an address dur ing the lull, little did he realize that in a few minutes the entire hall would fce in a state of bedlam. They broke loose through a casual mention by him of Bryan's name. Speaking of the Oklahoma constitution and criti cism made of it by Roosevelt and the work of Taft in opposition to it, Gore said that the advice of Bryan Bad been followed. Immediately there was a great cheer among the Bryan boosters which was taken up in every section of the house and al most in a moment the hall was in an uproar. The true state of delegations known to be opposed to Bryan take little or no part in the demonstration but their silence was hardly apparent in the wonderful demonstration which followed. As the minutes flew by the demonstration gathered in volume. Every effort on the part of Chairman Hell to bring quiet was unavailing. He could have battered his desk to pieces and no one would have heard the noise. Ten minutes, a half hour flew by and still there was no signs that the delegates and spectators had tired. The half hour grew into an hour, and still the clamor kept up. The marchers bearing banners pa raded around the hall, bands played and hats and coats were thrown into the air in the wildness of the dele gates they show their favor toward the Xebraskan. After one hour and 27 minutes of unchecked joy and re vel on the part of Bryan's friends Chairman Bell finaly secured order and shortly after the adjournment until tonight. Ayes 387, nays 615. The announcement bought great cheer ing, the majority report then adopt ed the viva-voce vote In a few minutes the convention adjourned un til tomorrow morning. The committee on resolutions and the subcommittees appointed to con sider the various specific planks la bored all day and late into the night on the platform. Denouncing what the committee termed Roosevelt's "Pertutuation of his dynasty" the injunction subcom mittee, Messrs. Williams, Parker and Sullivan labored all day in constant conference with labor leaders and it is expected the resolution will not be completed until tomorrow. A sub committee recommended the adoption of comprehensive tariff plank includ ing provision for free print paper, free wood pulp, lumber, logs, etc., and general rivision of tariff on import duties, especially in articles compet ing with the American manufactures, as are sold abroad cheaper than at home. The peamble Nebraska plat form was accepted for platform at the present convention, so close is com mittee and subcommittee adhering to the Bryan policy, that one member facetiously declared that it stood "16' to 1" on all propositions, Judge Parker being the odd member. There was a sharp controversity between Parker and Senator Pettigrew on the subject of courts, Parker favoring the announcement of party's confi dence in the federal courts which was opposed by Pettigrew. Compromise leaving the subject untouched. Wom an suffrage will probably be ignored. Robert D. Inman of Oregon pre sented a strong plank exclusion of Oriental fiber, also one for increasing the coast defense. A number of planks in the Nebraska platform ac cepted, are practically as they ap- pered in that document. BINGER HERMANN'S TRIAL. Probably Will Take Place in October Under Direction of Heney. PORTLAND, July 8.-Bingcr Her mann, ex-Congressman and ex-Com missioner of the General Land Office will be tried in Portland in October. Hermann will be prosecuted by Francis Joseph Heney in person.

NEW YORK, July 8.-The swift Cunard liner Lusitania has broken another speed record by logging 643 miles a day, according to information received today by the Cunard line of ficials in New York.

How the lmptri!itio Emblm Cam to B Adopttd, An old Freucu pamphlet published In 1815 tells lww the violet euine to Ik? the emblem of the Imperialist, or NhihiI uttlo. party In Franco. Three days before going luto exllo on the islaud of Elba Napoleon was walk ing up and down a garden, at Fontaine bleu, discussing his future with the Due de Bussnuo and General Beltrami, lie was still uneertulu whether be should go to Elba quietly at the bid ding of his enemies or whether he should try to offer some resistance. The Due de Bnssnno was urging him to strike a blow for his itlterty-bad ad vice surely. As the trio walked back and forth they came upon a child three or four years old who was picking violets. Xapoleou culled the lutby to him and asked for his flowers, and the little thing ave the enmeror all he had. A silence In the political talk followed until Napoleon, who always had n vein of superstition In his reasoning, said; "Well, gentlemen. I ant thinking of that child. That chance meeting seems to me like a piece of secret advice, warning me for the future to Imitate the modesty of this tlower. Yes, the violet shall henceforward be the em blem of my desires." "Sire." said Bertram! boldly, "for your majesty's glory I like to think that feeling will last no longer lu you than the flowers that Inspired It." But the emperor, silent nnd unheed ing now, withdrew and went to his private rooms. The next day he was seen walking In the garden1 with a buuch of violets In his buttonhole nnd stooping now and again to pluck more. A man named Choudleu, a grenadier of the guard, was on sentry duty, ami. taklug advantage of the laxity of dls clpllue that prevailed In this hour of ruin, he ventured to speak to the fallen sovereign. "lu another year, sire, the vtolet will be growing thicker here, You can gather them with le;s trouble." What:" was the answer. "Do you suppose I will be here next year?" "Perhaps sooner. We soldiers hope so. "But do you know that I leave for Elba day after tomorrow?" "Your majesty will suffer the storm to pass." "Are your comrades talking and feel ing as you do?"' "Almost all of them." "Ah. well, tell them to feel, but not to talk. When your sentry duty Is over, go to General Bertram!. lie will give you twenty napoleons. But keep the secret." Choudleu did not keep entirely secret the story of his conference with his majesty, but he threw a veil over his allusions nnd taught the other soldier? to do so by calling their great and worshiped leader Father Violet. Little by little talk about Father Violet reached the public, nnd to wear n bunch of violets by the time the nex season came aro'.tnd was n lecognlr.e;! sign of iuipei-l.iltetic sympathies. T this day violets are not worn In the same general way In Fra::'"' that t !:.; are here and lu England, ben: "re t !:.?: are felt to be a ;o:i!!tl bridge. A 1j gitlmlst would not be soon with n bunch In bis buttonhole any more tlir.n he would wear n republican tricolor cockade. Force of Habit. A Boston psychologist was recently reminded of the story of the Russian jailer who, changing his occupation, found the chief Interest of hlH leisure moments In catching birds, putting them iii cages and selling them to the highest bidder. The scientist, having to attend a series of lectures In a large public hall. struck up acquaintance with the jani tor of the building and soon noted In him a suggestive bent of mind. The man seemed fond of counting the peo ple and would occasionally report the exact number present. "We have 115 here tonight," he would say, or "Jost 201 all told," or, when the hall was crowded, "I make It 370." There was a problem In all this, but it took some time for the psychologist to solve It A bit of friendly, familiar talk, con tinually renewed, did the business, for it brought out the fact that the Janitor had spent many of the previous years of his life as warden In an eastern prison. With rifle on shoulder from some inclosing wall the man bad count ed his convicts until the habit became Ingrained. In the recesses of his brain the lecture ball took the shape of a Jail yard, and the audience were hto prisoners. He counted because he wished to know If all were there. Bos ton Herald. An Astonishing Airship. In these days of dirigible balloons, airships and aeroplanes the following account of an airship taken from the London Post for Dec. 22, 1709, is of In terest: "Father Bartholomew Laurent says that be has found out an Invention by the help of which one may more speed ily travel through the air than any other way, either by land or sea, so that one may go 200 miles In twenty four hours." The airship which was to accomplish this astonishlug feat, had at the top "sails wherewith the air is to be di vided, which turn as they are direct ed." There was a rudder to direct the ressel's course, and the body was "formed at both ends scr.llopwlse. In the cavity of each Is a pair of bellows, which must be blown when there Is no wind." Two loadstones, some large amber beads and various other Items all had some mysterious part to play In this attempt to traverse the air. HE BOOMS SEATTLE A Breezy Booster Descends Upon Chicago ! AFTER EXHIBITS FOR FAIR Seattle is Getting Ready Now and j Wants Chicago to Let Loose of Any Old Odds and Ends That Will j Help Exposition Out. j CHICAGO, July 8.-Like a breeie from a western whirl wind Capt. A. arrived in Chicago yesterday. He is out for exhibits, concessions, state buildings and any other odds and ends he may find around that will add to the attractiveness of the AlakaYu-kon-Paeific Exposition. The exposition is to be hefd in Seattle next summer, and according to Capt. Lewis the sublime beauties of the woodland, lake and mountain which surround the buildings make such thing as Streets of Cairo, ma chincry exhibits and roller eoasters almost superfluous. "Wc have many of our most im portant buildings ready for the ex hibition now sir", said the captain. Think of it, the manufacturers build ing, the fire department's building an absolute novelty by the way the Cal ifornia state building and others are complete a year before the dale set for the opening. "We are going to have an immense Eskimo village and thousands of dol lars will be spent demonstrating in a natural creek the placer mine that has made so many western millionaires. Then we will have a unique riding de vice, the tlip flip." "The government has appropriated $6(10,000 for the . exposition. The Arctic Brotherhood and the business men's associations of Alaska have contributed $100,000. I don't know what Chicago is going to do but as Seattle bought $11,000,000 worth of goods from Chicago last year, I think she will do something.' Then the captain launched into a glowing statistical account of the thousands of dollars that could be made from fruit raised on a vacant lot in the State of Washington in one year.
