Delegates to the national convention of the In dependence party spent the morning about the headquarters or seeing the sights of the city, and resumed the sessions at 2 o'clock this after noon, when the report of the reso lutions committee was made by Chairman Howard S. Taylor of Chicago. There Is much talk of Charles F. S. Neal of Indiana as the vice-presidential nominee. He was one of the most ac tlve Hearst workers in Indiana in 1904 and lives at Lebanon, In tiiat state, though he conducts his business in Chi cago. Though there Is still a large number of candidates, It seems to be generally be leved that Thomas L. Hlsgen will receive the presidential nomination. The speech of William R.

Muring last night's session the fol lowing Hearst slogans were much In evidence : "The Democratic machine, the pluto poker chip, the Republican machine, the dollar, pass current at the same coun ter." "New Jersey: The home of the trusts; wants to smash 'em." "Indiana wants a new deal with a clean deck." Oregon "No Chicago steam-roller; no Denver rock-rrusher." Rhode Island "Aldr4ch owns the sen ate; we want the people to own both." The entrance of George "W.

(Unite Press Leased Wire.) San Francisco, July IS. Word has been received by the law department of the Southern Pacific company here that the interstate commerce commission has ordered postponed the new rate on lumber shipments from Willamette river points in Oregon to San Francisco bay points. The new rato was to have become effective on August 15, hut the order Issued delays Its operation until October 1. ( United IYcks Leased Wire.) Tho Hague, July 28. Interference by the Dutch Socialists may prevent a declaration of war against Venezuela by the Netherlands government. The Socialists threaten a revolt as tho result of their objection to the Oregon's Republican leaders, of the Republican faction, do not want Wil liam SI. Cake to retain his place as the head of tho. state central committee. They want him to get down and out nnd let them tnke hold of the reins, the rudder and nil the other guiding apparatus of tho Republican ship of state In thin neck of the woods, and try to give William 11.

That's the way it Is going to be, ac cording to tho prophets who contend that they have a second sight on things poll tical. Demand Caie's Resignation. Mr. Cake has attended the national conference of state chairmen, and he has conu hack empty-handed and badly badgered bv those of the stalwarts who demanded of him why things are as they are in Oregon. Now he has gone again to the east, leaving instructions that a meeting of the state committee be called t he first Tuesday In September for the purpose of mapping out the plans for tho presidential campaign.

Accordingly It Is being urged that a meeting of the state committee should be held in t!ie near future nnd that at that time Mr. Cake ought to pack up his duds ami gn. leaving tho way clear for the election of sonic man known to b "safe" who would pick up the Taft banner and carry it up to unassailable heights.

(Cnttrd Press Leased WIr.) Constantinople, July 28. As a climax of the most remarkable scries of kal eaidoscoplc revolutionary chanses In the history of Turkey that have suc ceeded each other in rapid succession during the past two weeks, Sultan Ab dul Hamid II Issued nn Imperial Irade today that changes the entire social existence of tho Imperial family In con formity with the reforms recently granted to his subjects. Henceforth Abdul Hamid, no longer despotic ruier of an absolute despotism but constitutional monarch bv his own declaration of Friday, will live the life of a democratic monarch who depends on tho good will of the people for his power. Tho Irade Issued today declares offi cially that Abdul, who has been a self imposed prisoner In the imperial palace tor iiio past L'l years, will Henceforth appear on the streets like any "citizen" of Turkey. No less sweeping In its revolution ary aspect is the second decree of tin) irade. which announces that henceforth princesses of the imperial family must observe monogamy. Thev will not be compelled or allowed to be simply the chief of a hnrem, but must be queen In their household. Tho sultan has long been known to fret' under the bondage Imposed on him by the customs of his country and Is Fald today to be the happiest man in all Turkey. The entire countrv Is amazed at the latest Irade of the sultan, and lie Is today tho most popular mn'i in Turkey. Cincinnati, July 28. William H Taft, Republican candidate for pres ident, was today formally notified of his having received the majority vote of the Republican national con vention.

"Safe government," as opposed to rad icalism, formed the keynote of the Taft speech. Assurances were given that th election of Mr. Taft would mean that the principles advocated by Theodora .Roosevelt as President would continue to be urged until they ultimately become the law and settled policy of the United States. Reduction of the tariff waa aa- vucated. and attention directed to the plans suggested by Mr. Bryan for con trolling railroads and the larsra combi nations of capital were attacked as fu tile and productive of no real benefit to the countrv at large.
