IN A SHORT SESSION The Democratic Convention at Har- risburg, Pa. ADDRESS BY TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN His Reasons for Asking Popular Support. COMMITTEES SELECTED HARRISBURG, Pa., June 27.—The demo- cratic convention was called together by Chairman Stranahan at 12:1v, The hall was decorated with bunting, in which the Americsn colors. predominated. Thé call was read by Secretary Nead, after which Chairman Stranaban announced the names of temporary officers, who had been select- ed yesterday by the state executive cominit- tee. Robert E. Wright of Allentown, the temporary chat:man, made a short speech which was well received.” Chairman Wright's Speech. “Gentlemen of the convention: To those who have selected me for this place 1 beg to return my thanks,and to assure them that 1 appreciate to the fullest measure the honor implied in the choice. While 1 can- not hope to foreshadow. the form in which | this convention shall give expression to It conviction upon the grave public conui- tions that surround us, 1 know that 1 can- rot mistake the principles it will endeavor { (to enforce. In our juagment ‘and purpose | upon the great economic questions, settled |in the memorable contest of 18¥2, there will be no wavering or shadow of turning. “sy the verdict then rendered it was determined the constitutional power of the federal government to collect revenues by import duties should not be perverted from its legitimate purpose; should not be made the vehicle for turning the hard-earned | Wages and property of the masses into the overflowing coffers of the protected few. This principle in American politics has not | passed beyond the stage of discussion. It | ts _no longer a controverted proposition. “The mission of the democratic party, | now entrusted as it is with all the active | departments of the government, is to mold ‘the judgment of the American’ people into active, effective, productive legislation. ‘Yo the performance of this duty our party is dedicated and pledged by every con- sideration that should affect the honor of | men. In its fulfillment there will be no faltering. The shadow of temporary ad- | versity that has enveloped us must not check for a moment the progress of our great work. Republican extravagance and misrule having virtually bankrupted the government, broken its credit and destroy- ed public confidence in its ability to meet its obligations, it is not to be wondered at | that trade and commerce should be tem- | porarily paralyzed and all departments of | business depressed. “Though republican responsibility of this condition of affairs is patent, our party has not escaped and cannot 2xpect to es- cape the adversity that always temporarily comes, though unjustly, to the party hap- pening to be in power when unfortunate | conditions exist. Those adversities, how- ever, should.only intensify democratic de- termination to apply and enforce the rem- edy the people have decreed. Our revenue system must be reformed. Tariff duties must be reduced. The burdens of taxation imposed for unlawful purposes must be lifted from the shoulders of the people. “While democratic Representatives and Senators may honestly and properly differ |on many important details of needed legis- lation, while conservative sentiment may, in a measure, limit the measure of the ap- plication of the principles for which we |contend, while honest objection may be made to the application of tariff reform |of other systems of taxation of doubtful | wisdom, yet revenue reform must come in some substantial form before this demo- cratic Congress shall adjourn. { “Let the democracy of Pennsylvania then | send greetings to her Representatives and hold up their hands in. the struggle in | which they are engaged. Let this conven- | tlon’s platform speak in no doubting tones today. In the performance of our duty to our own state, let us present candidates who shall reflect in their individuality the best aspirations of democracy and who, if elected, wili continue to the people of Penn- sylvania that ability, purity and efficiency in government that have marked the ad- ministration of our governor and his ad- mirable cabinet.” Recess Until 2 O'Clock. After the reading of the roll of delegates it was referred to the committee on cre- dentials. The chairman then announced the committees on resolutions, credentials and permanent organization, and at 12:45 p.m. the convention took a recess until 2 o'clock. Bolted the Caucus. At a caucus of the Allegheny delegation this morning ten of the twenty-nine mem- | bers bolted. The trouble arose over the in- troduction of a resolution by County Chair- man Brennon that the contest in the fourth Allegheny district be settled by giving the | delegates half a vote each. The followers of George 8. Flen.ing opposed this resolu- | tion, and left the caucus, after which the | majority unanimously adopted it. On reconvening the following platform | was adopted: The Platform. The demozracy of Pennsylvanté renew | their expression of faith in @tmocratic principles, and their unfaltering confidence | that these principles are efficient for good | government, municipal, state and federal: First. The derangement of business, the disturbances between labor and capital, the reduction of wages, the unequal distri- bution of profits in economic operations and the gro: parity in social conditions which have ited from the operation of republican la’ will continue so long as those laws are unrepealed. The McKinley tariff bill is in full force and operation. The enactment of that tariff in 1800 im- paired International exchange:of commodi- ues and reduced revenues arising from du- ties; which, with vastly increased expenses threugh improvident appropriations, antic- ipating future revenues, led to a deficit in. the income necessary to support the gov- ernment. A democratic administration left $100,000,000 surplus In the federal treasury. A republican successor, in four years, con- verted this into a deficit of $30,000,000. We declare that this condition has followed re- publican depression has resulted from vicious legis- lation, for which the republican party ts solely responsible. To correct and relieve these, a democratic President and a dem- | Ocratic Congress are pledged; and their | efforts in that direction are entitled te the puceyer® of patriotic citizens, regardless of party. the declarations of the democratic national | platform of 1892, upon which a democratic President and Congress were elected, and | we desire and demand that the tariff laws be revised in accordance with that author- {tative declaration of party principles, 3. We declare that the consistent, cour- ageous and inflexible determination of a democratic President to maintain the credit of the government terminated a financial Panic, restored confidence and composed jdisturbed values. We are opposed to the reckless inflation of the currency to $40 |Per capita demanded by the republican state convention of 18% and Isvt; and, |while we favor the circulation of constitu. | tonal money, gold and silver at a parity of | value, we are unalterably opposed to any preciation of any dollar issued by the gov- ernment to the people. | 4. We heartily approve and indorse the upright and sagacious administration of President Cleveland, which has fulfilled | the pledges of his party, and has satisfied | the expectation of the people. 5. We denounce the derelection of the re- publican party in the legislative branches of the state government; we arraign {t for profligacy, and condemn it for refusal to enact wholesome laws demanded for the {public welfare. It refused to repeal the statutes requiring the useless advertising is mercantile appraisements at an enor- |mous expense to the state. It falled to make congressional, senatorial, representa- tive and judicial apportionments as com- manded by the Constitution. It refused to pass the legislation necessary to protect the public from unjust discrimination by corporations. It neglected to equalize tax- ation in response to the demands of over- burdened labor and of the agricultural in- terest of the commonwealth. It persistently refused to adopt any method by which the ‘enormous deposit of state money now scat- debasement of the currency or to the de- | ministration, and that business, Second.

We deplore all differences between cm- ployer and employe, and we deprecate the resort to force for settlement of question: that should be determined by peaceful a: bitrament. We recognize the right of every citizen to be protected in the free enjoy= ment of his property and of the privilege to work when, and for whom, and at what wages he wili. It is the duty of the state to maintain for him that right. The high- ways of the commonwealth should be open to all who lawfully traverse them, and the path to proper employment should not be obstructed by any unauthorizad power. $8. None the less, we condemn the insin- cerity and inconsistency of those who clamor loudly for protection to American industries, and yet geek every occasion and lose no opportunity to supplant it with cheap .imported pauper labor. We denounce the hypocrite who pretends zeal for the improvement of the social condition of the American workingmen, and yet displaces and evicts them for aliens, ignorant of our laws and foreign to our institutions. We stand for the rigid enforcement of all the laws of the commonwealth, enacted to pro- tect the lives and preserve the health of wagearners, and to secure for them the prompt and regular payment of. their wages in money of undiminished purchus- ing power. 9. We reassert the old democratic doctrine of equal rights and religious liberty; we are opposed to all organizations which strike at freedom of conscience, and we declare that no party can justly be deemed naticn- al, constitutional, or in accordance with American principles which is animated by. a spirit of political proscription of religious intolerance. 10. Extravagance of expenditure in mun- icipal government is the direct result of republican profligacy; and we urge upon the people of every city to énforce the sulutory principles of no expenditures in excess of appropriations, and no permanent debts for temporary purposes. 11. In accordance with the tecommenda- tion of the democratic national committee, the democratic state, county and city or- ganizations of Pennsylvania are adyised their power, the institution of regular demo- cratic societies in every election district, ond the union of such societies in the demo- cratic society of the state and the national association of democratte clubs. a ILLINOIS DEMOCRATS, Pr pects of Franklin MacVeagh for the Senatorial Nomination Best. SPRINGFIELD, Ill, June 27.—The chances of Franklin MacVeagh for nomi- nation as the party candidate for United States Senator at the democratte conven- tion seem to have grown brighter Juring the night, although Congressman Biack's friends express undiminished confidence. The iatter declare that the alliance of Ben. latter's nomination. They claim that Mac- Veagh cannot win unless he gets the Mor- rison strength. This, they are cunfident, he will not be able to receive. Mayor Hopkins and the Cook ecunty men say the opposition to MacVeagh has not been able to centralize upon any one again=t him. The convention was not called to order until after 12 o'clock. convention as follows: Temporary Chairman Scott's Remarks “You are here today as the representatives -of the greatest political party known in human history. “In 1887 our great leader startled the country with his marvelous message de- manding emancipation from commerctal slavery. The people did not then compre- hend the real significance of this mi rful appeal. Organized spoliation under the sub- ue guise of protection to American indus- tries and American labor, operating through the corrupt use and powerful influence of the vast tribute wrung from the people, came into full control of all departments of the government. The Fifty-first Con- gress became a carnival of jobbery. Tariff- fed monopolies brazenly dictated the sched- ules of the McKinley bill. The prodigal grandson entered upon his term of riotous living, and before the end of his term the very verge of national bankruptcy was reached. The Sherman silver law was given as that portion of the “swag” necessary to secure the electoral votes of the mining states at the ensuing presidential election. Then began the sure and steady under- mining of our monetary system. The dis- asters and misery of the last year need not and could not be enumerated. From the twin monstrosities, Shermanism and Mc- Kinleyism, have come such dire conse- quences as are seldom felt in @ free gow ernment, “Labor is ground even more than during that other protection panic of 1 cry for bread has gone up, wages have gone down and industry is paralyzed. The people found that their interests were be- trayed. The avalanche came and restored the misused powers of national adminis- tration to the people. The Sherman law was repealed, but it was too late to avert the crisis. “The first pledge was thus redeemed. Dav- enportism has also been swept away. Mc- Kinleyism would long since have joined Shermanism and Davenportism in political hades had not the Senate contained enough Judas Iscariots to betray the peopie’s cause with a treacherous kiss. These protection- ists masquerading in democratic garb have been able to turn our opportunity to serve the people into humiliation and disgrace. But all is not lost. The Wilson bill—a long step in the direction of our piedges to the people—has been somewhat emasculated by the Benedict Arnolds in the Senate, but yet contains enough of the virility of reform to enlist the cunning and corrupt opposition of every tariff beneficiary in the land. Bribery would not have been considered necessary by protectionists if the Wilson bill, even as amended in the Senate, meant the same as McKinleyism. The false and senseless at- tempt to hold our party responsible for the evils of almost a third of a century of re- publican misrule needs but the light of com- mon sense and simple reason to destroy it. It is that sort of ignorance and credulity which invites the sway of the gold brick sLarper or the foolkiller.” eee NEARLY A BLOODY RIOT. Meeting of Italia Broken SAN FRANCISCO, June 27.—An Italian mass meeting which nearly ended in a bloody’ riot was held in Garibaldi Hall last night | for the purpose of expressing regret for the assassination of President Carnot. Garibaldi Hall is in the heart of the Ital- ian quarter. It was packed long before the time set for meeting. The crowd was uu- ruly and there was considerable shouting, whistling and bustling. With the advent of the speakers of the evening the trouble began. Joseph’ Colegaris, the chairman, is one of the leading inen of the itaiian col- ony, and is laoked upon as a broad, and liberal-mirided man. He took his place on the narrow platform at the rear oi ihe hall, but for sme reason could not make himself heard on ac that came up from the mob in the streets below. Two policemen, in uniform, who were in the body of the hall, moved up in front of the platform. ‘ther action ana tne cries of “shame” and “silence” from the tew sober men in the hall-hed the effect of bringing about comparative quiet. ‘The cnairman said that te meeting nad been cusdeu ror of giving the Italtan residents vancises an opportuniiy of ex- { San Francisco people-in their griet because of the muruec {of President Carnot. Then beilam broke loose. The crowd that for a few moménts had been quiet was transformed into a mob of howling, ing, hooting maniacs. Those vb crush neal form was something frightful. Shouts end screams of “Down with the reneh,” and aly forever,” came trom half a thousand throats at once, and the uproar was 30 the plat- great that the answering yeds that came up from the street below could not be rd. 0 was the press that the speaker was rorced off the platrorm. This Was the signal for those in the rear, and had not the two policemen interposed at this critical m ment, a tragedy might have been the rm As it was, the two policemen, part their authority and partly by the weight of body, prevented the mob from crushing the speaker, Never for a moment did the shouts and curses cease. The critical moment arrived when Chairman Colegaris attempted to leave the hail. and one behind him, a way was forced through the excited mass of men as far as the doors.

CHICAGO, June 27.—Suburban passengers on the Illinois Central, South Chicago branch, were first to feel the effects of the tie up on that road today. Traffic was blocked and the company was compelled to transfer its patrons from the branch to the main line at 7ist street. At this point the South Chicago branch leaves the main line and runs southwest through a number of suburban stations to South Chicago. A tower at Tlst street con- trols the switch leading to the branch. Two operators have been stationed tu the tower, but they left their post last night | and their places could not be supplied readily. They left the switches set, for the main line and suburban trains on that road were running on regular schedule. Trains from South Chicago to Randolph street ran as far as the main line. but were unable to continue north. Through trains on the Illinois Central and | the roads using its tracks Grand Crossing and Pullman without interf ence. None carried Pullman cars.

LOUIS, Mo., June 27.—The Pullman- American railway contest is in a state of uncertainty here. The men concerned ap- parenuy do not know whether the boycott ! will be put in effect today, tomorrow, next week or at all. E. J. Scanlan, president of the local union, said today that he did not know what was behind the pestponement of the boycott, but there must be a purpose in picking oul the | duanois Central for the first blow on the part of the switechmen. He denied the statement that the boycott had been declared off, be- cause, he said, it had never been declared on. “We do not wish to inconvenience the public,”” he said, “by tying up the railroads, and this method will only be used as a iast resort. This is the explanation of the delay in the final orders.” Every effort is being made here to in- crease the strength of the American Rall- way Union, and so far about Suv accessions to the order have been made. JERSEY CITY, N. J., June 27.—No at- tempt has been made to extend the Pullman car strike to Jersey City. Pullman cars are running as usual today on the regular Pull- man trains.

LONDON, June 27.—In the central crimi- nal court today the counsel for the crown announced that the grand jury had refused to find an indictment against Gen. John Hewston of California, who was charged with manslaughter for having caused the death of an itinerant musician, named George Burton, on May 30. Counsel also stated that as the coroner's jury, at the in- quest, had found a verdict of manslaughter against Gen. Hewston, this commitment re- quired to be set aside before Gen. Hewston could be discharged. The presiding judge | directed the grand jury to consider this commitment as a matter of form and to re- turn “no bill.” This was done, and the prisoner, who had been at liberty on bail, Was then discharged.

It must ever be a reproach against Eng- lish women that they huve systematically injured their organiems by means of stays and high-heeled toots. The civilized woman of a hundred years hence will read with amazement that at the outset of woman's emancipation in this natiun the feminine pioneers of the movement still clung to the habit which, perhaps, more than any other stood In the way of thel> advance. A race of men begirt with steel and whalebone would be scorned of all civilized countries. Is there, then, an imperious physical neces- sity that women cannot escape? Are they structurally deficient that they must make to themselves ialse ribs of metal and bone? Is the malformed waist the type of civili- zation? It may be protested that the wo- man who laces her waist injures no one save herself. This is an obvious fallacy. It is the duty, the chief responsibility of every individual to maintain the highest possible standard of health. The tli-health o> debility of one affects others. Invalidism, malaise, waste of muscle through inaction—these are the banes of the majority of wor.en; and there is hardly a family in England that does not suffer, through every individual member, because of the weakness and recurrent in- dispositions of its women. I ask again, Is it an arbitrary and inequitable law of na- ture that the proportion of feeble and ailing human be'ngs shall be much larger in one sex than in the other? Another highly important consideration is that of women’s diet. Many women eat five unsubstantial meals, insicad of taking three adequate meals a day. There is no econo- my, but, on the contrary, waste, in this way of recuperating the losses of the system. The human stomach is act like that of the fowl; and it is imperative that the organs of digestion shall have a due share of rest. In this, as in all othe> matters of health, there uid be mo hard Life on a rational plan is not one of pen- ance and asceticism, but of full enjoyment in the performance of function and the gratification of sense. In order to derive the satisfaction of the palate, which is essential to sound digestion, there must be healthy hunger. Too many women eat without nor- mal appetite. and are compelled to tempt hunger by cating dainty but imnutritious and indigestibie dishes. A common female trouble is a feeble cir- culation of the blood. Women, and especial- ly those of Inert physical habits, appear to suffer unduly from the rigors of our cli- mate. The chief reason of this susceptibili- ty to cold ts the lack of proper exercise dur- ing the winte> months, when, for the great- er number of women, all outdoor recreation is suspended. When the thermometer regis- ters several degrees of frost you may often see men working without coats in the open air, while within the women are shuddering with wraps about their shoul- ders, and their chairs drawn close to the blaze of an immense fire. This dormouse hibernation is not conducive to vigor. Why does the winter “pull down” so many women? Because at the very season when the maximum of bodily exertion is necessary to maintain warmth, they scdu- lously abstain from outdoor exercises and live in the fetid air of unventilated rooms. A won.an who wishes to live wholesomely will not wait for a fine day upon which to saunter on the warm side of the street. She wilt go out every day, regardless of wind, rain and slush. Concisely, my theses are these: (1) Women are physiologically capable of attaining the same standard of health and ordinary power cf resistance as men. (2) To meet the present demands upon their Strength in the struggle for existence wo- mer must atm at the cultivation of all their powers. (3) Without this preparation the women of the future will not secure true social eqvality. The present superiority of staying power in men gives them the ad- vantage in the greater number of profes- sions and trades. (4) The reputed “arres*ed development” of vomen is the outcome of custom and not ¢ law of nature. Thus, men and women start with an equality of chances, but the chances are lessened for women by a difference of environment. _—o HE WAS ON TIME. Even If He Had to Dress on Board the Street Car. From the St. Louis Republic. Since the days when the aborigine deter- mined to deck his form in leaves the mat- ter of making toilet has always consumed @ portion of every man’s lifetime; of some @ very little, the tramp included, of course. Toilets fave been made in some of the most outlandish sorts of places and in some of the most outlandish sorts of ways. Toi- lets have been made on time, but it re- mained for a young man of St. Louis to beat the record in this matter. One morning last week as a Washington avenue car came dashing cityward with its customary freight of folks on duty’s errand bound, the passengers within were surprised at the sight of a young man rushing from a house, bounding across the street and boarding the car, with his hat, vest, coat and collar in his hand. He was a fine-looking fellow and, as far as one might judge by appearances, evi- dently a clerk employed in some one of the big stores. Ounce safely landed on the car, he laid his coat, hat and vest on the seat while he buttoned on the collar arfti whipped the tie into place. Then he drew from the pockets of the vest he had just donned a comb case and mirror and ie! urely proceeded to fix his bair and mus. tache. This finished, he drew on his coat, placed his hat upon his head and, with a quick survey of nis person, a few sweeps of the hand to carry away any Mnt that might have stuck upon his trousers, he glanced about the car with an air of ab- solute unconcern, He was dressed and on time for the office. a Excitement at Barcelona. Considerable excitement was caused at Barcelona, Spain, yesterday by a report that an attempt had been made to assas- sinate the clvil governor. It appears that the report had its basis in the fact that a beggar penetrated the private room of the civil governor and was arrested. When searched by the police a dagger was found in his possession. The report of the assas- sination was at fit'st generally believed, as it was known that the governor had received menacing letters, —-ee—____ At the recent graduation exercises at the National Normal Kindergarten M Ida H.

The iniquity of the “quick luncheon™ should receive the attention of the reform- ers, It may not be possible to atteck it in a legislative way, or through the med- tum of the board of health, but it is cer- tain that the “quick luncheon” offers serious menace to the health of the - ounger generation. - Nobody who has seen young office boys and junior clerks at one of these remark- able “quick luncheon” rooms can fail to have mapped out a dismal failure for the victims of these time-saving but iniquitous resorts. The lunches are served by men who are surrounded by miniature rail- roads, steam. coffee boilers and extraor- dinary contrivances, all constructed with a view of saving a few seconds’ time in supplying “business men” with the now | celebrated “quick luncheon.” A customer dashes into the restaurant, bounds upon @ stool and gives some such order as: “Rare beef, succotash, kidney, chow-chow, mince pie, iced tea.” It ts rolled off his tongue like a shot, for it is generally un- derstood that customers must lend a hand to facilitate the rush toward dyspepsia and an early grave. Before the customer has finished his song the determined yo man behind the counter begins a series wild gyrations, and in a remarkably short Space of time the entire luncheon is slam- med down in front of the eater, who be- gins to swallow it down, while the attend- ant thrusts him a check and starts in om the next man. Almost this identical luncheon was om dered a few days since, while the writer looked on, and it w eaten by a pallid- faced youth of nineteen in exactly four nd one-half minutes. He bolted the food, grabbed his check, rushed up to the cash- jer and paid it, and lighted a cigarette as he started toward the door. As a matter of interest the writer followed him. The pallid-faced young man stopped at the door to smoke his cigarette, and then, becom- ing interested in a cat that was lazily crawling across the coping of a window on the opposite side of the street, he stood there and watched the progress of the cat until it disappeared. Then he had a chat | with another pallid-faced young clerk, whe j had come out of the place, anu when they started to stroll down the street exactly | twenty minutes had elapsed. But neither of these “business men” would have thought of spending tweny mings =< lepcbeom <7
