Special to Times-Moumalneer.
Chicago, July H, After the excite
ment over the nomination of Bryan
had subsided yesterday, a caucus of
delegates was called fwr the purpose
of determining- upon a candidate for
vice-president, but 'ua to 2:30 thl
morning'" no agreement .had been
reached, and the caucus adjourned.
When Chairman White called the
convention to order at 11 this fore-
noon, Harrlty, of Iennsylvania, an:
nounced that there would be a meet
ing of the national committee at 3 p. M.
There were many vacant seats la
the Colisium when the convention was
assembled. Very few of the gold men
being present. When the roll of states
was called foi naming candidates for
vice-president, the nominating speech
es were short and to the point, in all
requiring less than two hours. Those
whose names were placed before the
convention were McLean, ; of Ohio;
Clark', of North Carolina;' Fitchan, of
Illinois; Pennoyer, of Oregon; Daniels.
of Virginia, Qsweli, of Maine, and
Williams, of Massachusetts. Daniels,
McLean and Fitchan' requested that
their names be withdrawn, and ballot
ing began at 12:12. - The result was
as follows:
First ballot Williams, of Massa
chusetts, 76, McLean 111, Lewis tl
Clark 50, Fitchan 1, Sewell 108, Sibley
161, Daniels 11, Boies 16; Williams, of
Illinois, 22, Harrlty 11, Bland 62,
Blackburn 20, Teller 1, Pattison 2,
White 1; not voting, 230.
Second ballot Williams, of Massa
chusetts 16, McLean 164, Clark 22,
Sewell 37, 'Sibley -116, Williams, of
Illinois 16, Bland 268, Pattison 1; not
voting, 227.
Third ballott Williams 15, McLean
210, Clark 22, Sewell 97, Sibley 50,
Daniels 6, Harrity 19, Bland 255, Pat
terson 1; not voting, 257. Sibley
telegraphed ' his - withdrawal, as did
Bland, stating that it was not advis
able to nominate two .candidates from
the west, and the strength of both
Sibley and Bland went to Sewell on
the fourth ballott, giving him 430, just
25 less than sufficient to nominate.
This caused" a stampede " to the-nian
from Maine,' and Arthur Sewell was
declared the unanimous nominee of
the convention amid great cheering
and wild demonstration. " J
This concluded the work of conven
tion, and at 1:35 the most exciting pol-
f.ioal convention" ever ' held. In the
country adjourned sine die. .
MONET BY TUB CAKTLOAD..
Large Check Cashed by the Kan Francisco
Snbtreasury. .
San Francisco, July 10. A check
for $678,000, drawn by Paymaster Bel
lows, of the navy, in favor of the Cali
fornia bank, was cashed at the sub
treasury on Wednesday afternoon, and
the full amount In 320 gold pieces
carted from the government treasury
house on . Commercial street to the
vaults of the California - bank. The
transfer of such a large amount of
gold required but one hour's time and
was so quietly done that only the
clerks and guards who had the matter
In charge knew what was going on.
The check was drawn, by Paymaster
Bellows In part payment for the new
cruiser Oregon, which was formally
accepted - by the .'government on
Wednesday. According to the contract-
entered Into' between .the navy
department and the Union Iron works
the big fighting machine was to be
paid for on the Installment plan, pay
ments being, made from, time .to time
as certain conditions, were fulfilled by
the contractors. " , "
The total cost of the Oregon was
about $4,000,000. The greater, part of
this has already been paid.. The last
payment it to be made, if 'everything
goes all right, -five months from the
date of the acceptance of the vessel by
the government. t "V
Assistant Treasurer Berry, of. the
subtreaaury, said yesterday . that the
check was the largest that- had- been
drawn upon the publie treasury during
bit administration.,. The payment was
made in gold coin in double eagles.
The 120 gold pieces were sacked up In
bag containing 1000. each and there
were 34 of the bags of the yellow metal
when all had been' .counted out. . The
weight" of the pile; was "about 2500
pounds '. :: - "" " . .

people there, however, are strongly
convinced of the urgent necessity for
remonetizing silver and they are in
disposed to wait for International
agreement. party of any import'

The report concludes as follows:
'Responsibility for the present and
growing dangers to the Industrial life
of the; nation rests upon those who
oppose the monetary . system under
which our prosperity advanced by
leaps and bounds."
A letter was read from Lord Alden
ham (Mr. Henry Hncks Glbba), presf-
dent of the league, in which he con
gratulates the members upon the
great progress made in the United
States. '"Tis Indeed a striking fact,"
Lord Aldenhatn wrote, "that this

ently, the main political question be

POP STILL WANT TEIXKB.
They Will Probably Not Indorse , Bryan
:.' V St. Lonls.
St. Loma, July 13. The impression
seems to be strong among local popu
lists that if the democratic ticket
named at Chicago is indorsed by the
populidt national convention on the
22d inst.. in will only be after a hard
flsrht.
"Teller is still our man," said a well
known populist and a'silver party man,
"and watch what I tell you; we will
nominate him. We figure it is best
for the silver cause to nominate Teller.
He can carry . the silver republican
states and can secure more electoral
votes than Bryan. Bryan will carry
the -silver democratic states, and be
tween Teller and Bryan we count on
securing enough electoral votes to
prevent McKinley's eleotion. If this
can be done, the eleotoral votes for
silver will hold together, and will se
lect Teller or Bryan for president.
This is the latest plan of the popu
lists."' BRYAN WENT TO SALfH.
Greeted by Many Villagers Along- the
Monte.
Salem, 111., July 13. Never before
In its history has this quiet little town
been 90 ablaze as it was tonight. Or
dlnarily the citizens retire for the
night by 9 o'clock. By 10 o'clock it is
as quiet as a country church yard, at
midnight. There is nothing left to
compare with the stillness that pre
vails. Tonight, W. J. Bryan, leader
of the democratic national campaign,
a native of the place returned here.
The whole tewn was out to meet him. J
There were fireworks;' red fire was
burning all along the route by which
he was conducted to the home of his
sister. ' He will -remain for the next
two days.- .
When the train pulled . up ' to the

on hand ready to welcqmerBryan from

Bryan were escorted to a carriage by

' How ' Looks In England.
LONDON, July 10. The. Chronicle
says:
'The Chicago convention has justi
fied the expections of its worst enemies.
Nobody could 'have forpeen such a
speedy and open voicing of the enmity
of the West and the South against the
East. The financial condition of
Argentina and of Greece is a paradise
compared with what would be the con
dition of the United States should the
free-silver party come into office. If
so colossal a catastrophe as the elec
tion ot a silver president should occur,
America would be brought face to face
with financial panic, and commercial
ruin and with a second oivll war." .
Is Depew Prophet? :
London, July 10. The Westminster
Gazette this afternoon publishes a long
interview with Dr. C.hauncey M. De
pew on the political situation in the
United States. He is quoted as saying:
'We republicans, and also the demo
crats who believe in sound money, are
glad this isaue has been forced clearly
on the country. It largely obliterates
party lines and the great business in
terests of the country,- farming, mer
cantile, banking and all that element
of citizenship which hqs made the
United States, will be for the republi
can candidate." ':
Attempted Burglary. .
Bakersfield, Cal., July 10. An
unsuccessful attempt was made last
night to blow . open the vault of the'

drilled in the front combination of the

part of4he lock. Had the. outer: door
been opened there would still have
been an Inner door to the vault, and a
heavy steel safe inside to open before
the money was reached. . . . . .

Declares That Both Should Be Rec

Income Tax Strongly Indorsed Tariff
Bevenue Sufficient to Meet the Ex
panses of the Government Op

"We, the democrats of the United
States, in' national convention assem
bled, reaffirm our allegiance to those
great essential principles of justiee
and liberty upon which our Institutions
are founded, and which the democratic
party has maintained from, Jefferson's
time to our own freedom of speech,
freedom of the press, freedom of con
science, the . preservation of personal
rights, the equality of all oitlzens be
fore the law, and the faithful observe
vance of constitutional limitations.
"Recognizing that the money ques
tion is paramount to all others at this
time, we invite attention to the fact
that the federal constitution names
silver and gold together as the money
metals of the United States, and that
the first coinage law passed by con
gress under the constitution made the
silver dollar the unit of value and ad
mitted gold to free coinage, at a ratio
measured by the silver-dollar unit.
"We declare that the act of 1873 de
monetizing silver without the knowl
edge Or approval of the American
people has resulted in the appreciation
of gold and a corresponding fall in the
prices of commodities produced by the
people; a heavy increase in the burden
of taxation, and of all debts, public and
private; the enrichment of the money
lending classes at home qnd abroad;
paralysis of industries and impoverish
ment of the people. v . " '
"We are unalterably opposed to the
single gold standard, which has locked
fast the prosperity of an industrious
people In the paralysis of hard times.
Gold monometalism is a British policy,
founded upon British greed for -gain
and power t and its general adoption
has brought other nations into financial-
servitude to London. It is not
only un-American, but anti-American,
and it can be fastened upon the United
States only by the stifling of that in-
piomttable spirit and lave of liberty
which proclaimed our political inde
pendence in 1776 aud won it in the
war of the Revolution. -
-' We demand the, immediate restora
tion of the free and unlimited coinage
of gold and silver at the .'.preseut legal
ratio of ;36 id J, ? withouV waiting for
the aid or consent, of any other nation.
We demand that , the standard, silver
dollar shall be a full legal . tender,'
equally with gold, for all debts, publio
anjl private, and we favor, such legis
lation as will prevent the demonetiza
tion of any kind of legal-tender money
by private contract. v ;
"We are opposed to the policy and
practice of surrendering to the holders
of the obligations of the United States
the option reserved by law to the gov
ernment of redeeming such obliga-
tions in either silver coin or gold coin. ;
"We are opposed to the issuing of
interest-bearing bonds 0 the United
States in times of peace and condemn
the trafficking with banking syndi- '
cates ' which, In exchange for bonds
and at -an enormous profit to them
selves, supply the ' federal treasury
with gold to maintain the policy of
gold monometallism.
"Congress alone has power to coin
and issue money, and President Jack-
son declared that tbls power could not
be delegated to corpo-atioun or to in-
divlduals. , We therefore denounce the
issuance of notes as money, for national f
banks as in derogailon..of the constitu-1
tion and we demand that all paper j
which is made' legal tender for public
and private debts, or which is receiv- j
able for dues to the United States shall :
be issued by .the government 'ot the '
United States, and . shall, be redeem
able In coin.
"We hold that tariff duties should
be levied solely for purposes of revenue
and that taxation should be limited by
the needs of the government, honestly
and economically administered!.
"'.We denounce as disturbing to busi
ness the. -republican threat to restore
the McElnley law, which has been
twice condemned by the people In the
national elections and which, enacted
.under the false plea of protection to
home industry, proved - a. prolific
breeder of trusts and monopolies, en
riched the few at the expense pi the
many, restricted trade and deprived
the p'roduoers of the great American
staples of access to their natural mar
kets. "

MEAT FOR THE WORKINGMEN.
Makes Muscle. Preserves Energy, and Val
, uable for Preserving the Tlssne. r
A prominent Englishman who was
discussing the food value of meat to
working-men lately, says the St. Louis
Globe-Democrat, said: "DeSjtfEU'- what
our vegetarian friends saf ,-taoat is
essential to the workingman. It makes
muscle and preserves the energy. The
Irishman of his own country is too
poor to bny much meat, and it is notori
ous that he cannot do aa much work as
he does in other countries where he Is
enabled to live better. The trades
onion commissioner of England has on
record the statement of a manufacturer
who has factories in . Manchester, Eng
land, and Cork. Ireland, to .the effect
that, although he paid wages 20 per
oent. lower in Cork than in his English
factory, the cost to him is exactly the
same. This he attributes wholly to the
difference in diet; Several manufac
turers in this country have observed a
marked increase in the labor capacity
of young Irishmen after a few weeks'
stay in this country, where meat is
served three times a day at the boarding-houses,
whereas in his own country
the Irish laborer is in luck to get meat
once a day. Thia is an economic ques
tion in which there is food for Serious
thought for men employing labor on a
large scale, no , tuinic to save money
by outting down wages. It has been
demonstrated that shortening the
hours of labor Increases the average of
work done, and by paying wages at
which men can afford to eat plenty of
meat the manufacturer will, I belie ve, be
the ultimate beneficiary. Especially is
this true of concerns like iron foundries
and rolling mills, where the work is of
an extremely arduous character, de
Wnding - a constant renewal of the
wasted tissues."

During a cruise extending over four -years
and a half the Chioago traveled
the seas of the old and aew worlds and
covered a distance of 49,865 nautical
miles, made port 8,781 times, entered
2,970 harbors, came to anchor -1,602
times on ' foreign stations; and fired
over 4,000 salutes,' varying from thir

in return an equat number of -compliments

tended cruise the Chicago carried the
pennant of one admiral, although she
had three different captains and sever
al complete changes of officers, owing
to the operation of naval regulations as '

Chicago is also a remarkable

Antelope Preserve In Africa.
' 'An effort is being made in . England
to form a society with the object of
preserving mssy of .the species of
South African antelopes, which are in
danger of soon becoming extinct.
The scheme, which is being promoted
and supported by a number of well
known sportsmen and scientists. Is to
inclose a suitable tract of country in
the district near Fort Salisbury with a
wire fencing-of, say, forty-five miles in
circumference, and drive into this in
closure small herds of the still exist
ing species of antelopes which it is de -sired
to preserve. At oertain seasons r
of the year, to prevent overcrowding. -a
number of specimens would be let
loose or exported for the use of zoolog
ical societies. To carry out the plan a
comparatively moderate capital would
be required; and it is said that the
British South African company will re
ceive a petition before long asking their
consent to the fencing in of the pro- I
posed preserve. ,r ?
