A ter- rife downpour of rain and the all-night ses- sions of committees combined to give the pro- hibition delegates @ bedraggled appearance a8 fn scattering groups they came into their na- tional convention hall for what was expected to be the culmination of the proceedings. WORKING OX THE PLATFORM. Tho platform committee was still in session when the convention was called to order. Tho subcommittee had worked incessantly until 3 m., and had madea teportto the full commit- tee, where a fight ensued over the tariff and silver planks, the subcommittee also having been divided’ on those two points. The free coinage men were beaten in the subcommittee, aud tho plank as submitted to the full commit teo was antagonized to absolute free coinage. Secretary Wheeler carried his si er resolu- tion through, but in the full commince Editor Thompson of Ohio offered a more sub tional party, but a national party; and “Whereas the issues of the late civil war were settled and settled rorever, therefore, “Resolved, That it is the sense of this conven- tion that rs who are accorded the honor of addressing the convention be requested to refrain from unnecessary references or illus- trations that could be construed as a reflection on any of the participants in the late struggle.” Objection was ral that the resolution should go to the committee on resolu- without debate. This did not suit the majority of the convention, however, and so the rules were suspended and the resolution was considered. Gibbs made a stirring speech in its behalf, issues of the war were ended’ an ought not to be resurrected, Gibbs’ resolution was adopted by a nearly unanimous vote. At the request of a number of delegates,“The Queen of the prohibition party,” as she was in- troduced by Chairman Ritter, was called upon for a speech. The dele; ns buried and tes rose and greeted her with a Chautauqua calute. Miss Willard’s first words were a that was a fusionist. She acknowledged her complimentary recognition and added: “And Yet some of you thought I favored fusion.” gee NO FREE SPEECH IN IRELAND, Partisanship Carried to Its Extreme in the Green Isle.

Mr. Hale, from the conference committee on the naval appropriation bill, reported that the to-| committeo had been unable to agree, and he proceeded to state the two pointa of disagree- ment. These were, first, the item inserted by the Senate for an international naval rendezvous end review at New York and Hamp- ton‘Roads in 1893, and, second, the pro- vision inserted by the Senate for building one battle ship, one harbor defense ship, four’ smah’ ‘gunboats and six lo bots. As to the first Mr, falo stated that under section 8 of the act for the Columbian exposition there was a direct {Se cus of tas greten ta aoe erating one of the grandest and. most ing Pageants that the American people had ever The Senate and Houso conferees were at loggerheads over this item—the House con- ferees to agree toit and the Senate conferees refusing to strike it out. Mr. Butlor inquired as to the acceptance of the invitation by foreign natiobs. Mr, Hale stated in reply that formal invita- tions had not yet been , but the propo- sition was known to them informally, an; of them (ho thought) had inf accepted and were getting ready for the review.

Mr. Be: a division of the ques- tion; that prnremasmret be insisted upon and that the Senate recede from the second. Mr. Hale preferred to have the two matters go aguin into conference. His motion was agreed toanda new confer- ‘ence was ordered. ‘THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA BILL. The conference report on the District of Columbia appropriation bill was then presented and agreed to. All the pointe of difference between the houses, Mr. ‘Alcon said, had been arranged excopt that on the question of the entertainment of the G. A. R., anda further conference was asked on the G. A. R. item. THE SILVER BILL VOTE. Mr. McPherson gave notice that he would not abide by the unanimons consent given yes- terday for a vote on the silver bill at 2 o'clock tomorrow, the consent having been given in his absence and in the absence of every mem- ber of the finance committee. THE HOUSE. Although there was evidently less than a quorum present when the House met at 11 o'clock, and although Mr. Watson of Georgia was in his seat, there was no objection made to the reading of the journal or its approval. Mr Forney, from the committee on appropria~ tions, reported back the legislative appropria- tion bill with Senate amendments and moved that the amendments be non-concurred in and conference ordered. The motion was agreed toand Messrs. Forney, Dockery and Hender- son (Iowa) were appvinted conferees. ‘Mr. Bryan (Neb.) asked consent for the pas- sage of a Senate bridge bill. MR. WATSON ON HAND. Mr. Watson (Ga.)—Regular order. ‘Mr. Bryan said that if the gentleman would listen to a statement he would not object. The Dill extended the charter of a bridge company to construct a bridge across the Miseouri river at Omaha, and unless the gentleman was inter- ested in the present bridge there could be no reason for his objection. Mr. Watson replied that he knew nothin about the bill. But the people he represent desired the consideration of a measure which would destroy a monopoly far more disastrous end far reaching in ite consequences than any bridge monopoly could be. Until a respectful consideration could be given to that measure he felt it his duty to use every means in his power 136 | to compel the committee on ways and means to report the subtreasury bill. He insisted on his demand for tho regular order. THE HIGHWAYS IN THE DISTRICT. Mr. Heard (Mo.) submitted the conferenco report on the bill to establish a permanent sys tem of highways in the District of Colum! outside of the efties. Much opposition was manifested to the re- port, and after an hour’s discussion Mr. Heard ‘asked to withdraw it, but, objection being mad, the report was voted down. TO EXTEND PRESENT APPROPRIATIONS. Mr. Holman {Ind.), from the committee on appropriations, reported a joint resolution ex- tending for fifleen days from today the appro- ‘THE NEW SECRETARY OF STATE. Gen. Foster Gets to the Department Early— Many Letters of Congratulation. Secretary J. W. Foster was at the State De- earlier than business usually begins at that department, and the employes ere somewhat concerned as to whether he means to make @ new rule in that respect. The now premier who formbrly occupied the small room at. th® extreme censtern end of the northern corridor, gave that up this morning and established himself temporarily in the dip- lomatic room, formerly used by Mr. Blaine as his office.

Mr. Poster has not yet selected » Private secretary, but will probably do vo ina fow days. He received a large number of con- gratulatory letters and telegrams this morning, and many friends in the diplomatic service called to pay their respects in person. While it is not an uncommon thing for two men of the same state to be in the samo cabinet it is un- Precedented to have two men of the same name in the same cabinet.

OAPT. MILLER’S PETITION. He Wants Pecuniary Compensation for Be- ing Shot by a Drunken Policeman. Senator Faulkner today presented in the Sen- ates rather unique petition. It is from Capt. James M. Miller, who was shot recently dy Policeman Burns. The petition spys: “By ree- son of the drunken condition of one Joseph Burns,a member of the metropolitan police force of the city of Washington, he, the peti- tioner, was wantonly shot down and danger- ously wounded on the publ streets of this city without provocation or cause.”” s The petition then recites that by reason of the wound the petitioner's health has been damaged and that the injury is “irreparable and permanent.” Continuing, tho document states: “The gen- resumption 1s that there is sufficient law to redress all wrongs, but an outrage of this articular class of wrongs appear to ean exception, hence I am con- strained to appeal to your senso of justice and ask that I be granted such pecuniary relief st your hands as in your ion will" in measure ameliorate the suf- fering endured, and — respectfully ask {hat an appropriation for this purpoce be made from the public funds of the District of Colum- bia or such other funds as may be , charged therewith.” shade A TALK WITH MR. DICKSON. He Says He Was Beaten and That is All ‘There is to It. Mr. William Dickson returned from the Chicago convention yesterday afternoon and was seen this morning by a Stan reporter. He was in the best of spirits, and if the action of the convention‘in the matter of his contest had any ill effects upon him there were none visible. “I was beaten standing up,” replied Mr. Dickeon, in answer to the reporter's inquiries, “in a fair, square fight, and I have nocom- plaints to make.” “The committee on oredentials was a Cleveland committee and I was doomed almost before tho hearing was begun, but, as I said, I have no complaint to make against the committee or against either Mr. Norris or Mr. Davis.

SILVER MEN CONFIDENT. ‘They Believe the Stewart Bill Will Pass the Senate. The silver men are somewhat enthusiastic over the prospects of the Stewart silver bill in the Senate. The agreement: to vote on it at 2 o'clock tomorrow relieves them of the anxiety lest it be talked to death, and they are confidently claiming that it will pass by © majority of from three to six. No one can tell how accurate their canvass of the Senate may be, but they have confidence in their owncaleulations. How- ever, it may be accepted as practically a cor- tainty that if tho bill ever comes over to the ‘House with the approval of the Senate the dem- ccratic majority will see that it docs not fail there. ‘The democrats of the House are not willing themselves to make an issue with the Senato on this question, but they will go as far as the Senate will. "The silver taen in the House, whether democrats or repub- licans, are not pleased with the money planks in the two national platforms and they would like an opportunity to ehow that they hava, not entirely surrendered their views on the silver question. oboe. EER NEW YORK THE BATTLEFIELD. Two Views as to the State of Affairs in the Empire State. Members of both parties in Congress are be- ginning to interest themselves actively in New York state and are eager to get into the cam- Paign as quickly as;f@ssibloso.as to get at the work which both parties feel to be necessary in that state. The leading talkers for each party are speaking positively of what they are gomg to do in New York, but at the bottom thero is the deepest anxiety felt. All talk about letting New ‘York go by default and devoting themselves to other states is nothing more than the usual nonsense indulged in, with the vain hope of deceiving somebody for the purpose of getting an advantage. It is quite evident that New York is to bo the battle- ground this year as heretofore, and the fact that both the candidates have opposition in that state lendsa peculiar interest to the eltuation. The republicans are somewhat anxious on ac- count of the apparent indifference or indispo- sition on the part of Mr. Harrison to conciliate the republicans who have opposed him, but it may be relied upon after all the various promi- nent workers will have their coats off and at least make ashow of great activity. crate who, at Chicago, insisted that Mr. land could carry New’ York against the world, are now more cautious in their expressions, and after the heat of enthusiasm have come’ toa calm realization of the fact that whatever they get there they must work for, Representative Burrows of Michigan, who has just returned from the demonstration at Roch- ester. in which he took part, said today that he found a very satisfactory condition of affairs in New York; that the republican clubs and the Seay cxpspisal tions genefallly were ral for an active campaign and apparent jotermined to enter into the work with earnest “to make any would ness and enthusiasm. “Tt is too early,” he sai guesses as tohow tho state go. I not venfure to say at this time that Mr. Harri- son is going to carry the state, and for any democrat to say that Mr. Cleveland will carry itin merely idle talk.

According to the prografh, which has been arranged by a Joint committeo of the Sons of Revolution, the Sons of the American Revolution and the Daughters of the American Revolution, the day is to be celebrated with some of the old- time fervor, This program is an extremely practical one. The probable heat of the day is taken into consideration and also the fact that it is a holi- day which is largely observed by family gather- ings. It is therefore proposed to make an early start, The members of these organizations will assemble at Epiphany Church at 9 o'clock sharp, where brief services will be conducted by Rev. Dr. McKim and Rev. Dr. Childs, the chap- Ieing of the two organisations of the sone.

A ealute will be fired by the Light Battery of the District militia and then short exercises will be held. Mr. John Goode will deliver a brief oration, the Declaration of Independence will be read’ by Mr. Barry Bulkley and probably an- other short adarees will be delivered.
