The trial of Dr. Jameson and his fellow prisoners, charged with violating the foreign enlistment act in making a raid into the territory of the South African Republic, was resumed at the Bow street police court in London yesterday morning. Although there was a full attendance, there was less excitement. Seated on the bench were the Duke of Aberdeen, chatrman of the British Charter- ed South Africa Company; Lord Monks- well, Lord and Lady Deerhurst, Ladies Foley, Finlay, Annalay, Kinaid, Buller, Ribblesdale and Bruce, Admiral Field and Mrs. A. Paget. There was no sign of a demonstration when the prisoners were ushered into court. Sergt. White of the Bechuanaland mount- ed police testified to having refused to join Dr. Jameson's expedition, and added that Col. Grey questioned troopers prior to starting and informed them they were not going to fight for the queen, but for the supremacy of the british flag in South Africa. The sergeant also testified that Commis- sioner Newton dispatched him from Mafe- king, on December 30, in pursuit of Dr. Jameson's column, telling him to catch the latter at any cost. When the witness caught up with the column he handed his dispatches to Col. Grey, who ordered him to give them to Sir John Willoughby, who in turn, told Sergt. White to give them to Dr. Jameson, but later, however, sent him back to Sir John Willoughby, who finally distributed them. Replying to a question on the subject, Sergt. White testified that he did not see any of the dispatches given to Dr. Jame- son. ' According to White, Sir John Willough- by said: “Tell ycur commanding officer that the dispatches have been recelved and will be attended to.” The column, Sergt. White also said, then proceeded in the direction of Johannes- urg. Bower, a clerk in the office of Gen. Jou- bert, the commander-in-chief of the forces of the South African Republic, deposed to having delivered the message of Sir J. A. Dewitt, the British agent at Pretoria, to the commanders of the Jameson expedition, and he stated that the reply to it, which was read in court, stated that the supplies of the column were exhausted, and that it rover prcceed to Krugersdorp or Johannes- ure. The case was again adjourned. <0 RUMORED IN LONDON That the British Ambassador Will Soon Leave Washington. A London dispatch says: It is reported that the British ambassador at Washing- ton, Sir Julian Pauncefote, will shortly come to London to discuss with the gov- ernment certain features of the Venezuelan question. While the persons directly concerned at the British embassy in this city in the re- port that Sir Julian Pauncefote has been recalled to London to discuss the Venezu- elan question with the officials of the for- eign office decline to talk upon the sub- ject, {t is not believed here that the report is well founded. The sole reason that could be adduced for the recall of the am- bassador at this time to London, is.that his famillartty with the earlier phases of the controversy arising from his treat- ment of the subject while in the foreign office might make his advice valuable in the preparation of the historical case. It is not perceived, however, why the am- bassador’s knowledge on this question could not be availed of by the foreign office by means of correspondence, while on the other hand it is probable that through his presence In Washington he Is of much more service to his government in the conduct of the negotiations than he would be in London. This is particularly true at the present moment, when the me- gotiations are progressing with such smoothness as to justify the belief that a satisfactory conclusion of the long con- troversy may be expected within a reason- ably short period of time, if there should be no interruption such as might follow the absence of the British ambassador from Washington even temporarily. -—-#e6-—___ BRITISH GOOD WILL. Commercial Men of the United King- dom Desire Peace With America. At the annual meeting yesterday in Lon- don of the associated chambers of com- merce of the united kingdom, on mo- tion of Sir*Andrew Kaye Rollit, the pres- ident, a resolution was passed expressing the appreciation of the associated cham- bers of commerce at the friendly feeling displayed by the chamber of commerce of New York, and recording thelr strong de- sire that a method be found acceptable to both nations for settling in a conciliatory spirit any differences which may arise. The Proposed Sunday Law. To the Editcr of The Evening Star: As a resident of Washington and a patron of The Star, I ask space in your oxcellent paper for a very reasonable protest to the proposed Sunday legislation, as stated by the Rev. Dr. Elliott. Inthe first place, all broad-minded peopje can,see that strict Sun- day laws are unjust and establish class legislation. There are thousands of families in this city who cannot afford o purchase refrigerators and “bupply them with ice through the long, hot summers, and such families depend upon getting their fresh meats and other perishable articles of food from thelr grocers,on ;Sunday. Enact the proposed Sunday Iaw, and people who can- not afford to make general use of lemons and other fruits, and, to them, delicacies, must suffer the entire fitst day of the week, in case of sudden sickness, through ferce of sectarian class Jegislation, because they cannot afford to keep a stock of perishable articles on hand to be used in-case of emer- gency. But this is not all, by any means. Besides the other innumerable’ conveniences that civilization has blessed us with, and which such law would rob the people of, there are principles of liberty and freedom of con- science that would be trampled upon. Dr. Elliott and his shade of believers have unbounded religious Mberty, and, should they choose, can have two ur three Sundays each week, but is it reasonable that we who do not agree with his religion should be forced to observe his Sunday so strictly? There are matters which are as conscien- tiously and truthfully as near and dear to the hearts, and as true in reality, of people of all shades of belief, as those held by the petitioners for this Sunday law. Ati can live up to the principles of the Constitution of the United States, with its broad pro- visions for religious liberty, for its object proclaims, metaphoricaily speaking, ‘The world is my country; io :lo good 1s my re- ligion.”” c Smokers unbiased in their opinion pronounce Sweet Moments cigarettes best. FINISHED ITS LABORS Delegates-at-Large to St. Louis Chosen at New York. GREAT ENTHUSIASM FOR MORTON A Move to Make McKinley Sec- ond Choice Defeated. SCENES OF EXCITEMENT The New York republican convention fin- ished its labors last night at New York. The préliminary sparring that has been going on for weeks ended in the final battle last night, and the forces that have been dor- mant for two years kept within the state boundaries the honor of the presidential indorsement of the greatest state in the Union, the state casting the largest number of votes in the electoral college. That in- dorsement goes to Governor Levi P. Morton. The delegates-at-large will be Thomas C. Platt of Tioga, Warner Miller of Herkimer, Chauncey M. Depew of New York, and Ed- ward Lauterbach, The alternates will be Hamilton Fish of Garrison, Frank S.Witherbee of Port Henry, C. H. Babcock of Rochester, and Daniel Mc- Millan of Buffalo. The electors-at-large will be Gen. Benja- min F. Tracey of New York and Edward H. Butler of Buffalo. It was 7:53 o'clock when Temporary Chair- man Parsons called the convention to order last night. Senator Brackett, chairman of the committee on contested seats, then read his report. When he read that the sitting delegates in all but one district had been allowed to retain their seats there were cheers and applause, and the report was adopted with very little opposition. Frederick S. Gibbs of the committe on per- manent organization reported the name of Congressman George 1. Southwick of Al- bany for permanent chairman, the list of vice presidents and secretaries. While the secretary was reading Thomas C. Platt en- tered the hall,-and the delegates arose and cheered him while the band stopped pro- ceedings to play “Hail to the Chief.” Then somebody proposed “three cheers for Thos. C. Platt,” and they were givn with a will. Chairman Lauterbach of the county com- mittee also came in for a share of the ap- plause, and it was ten minutes before order could be restored. Congressman Southwick was then es- corted to the platform. He addressed the convention in part as follows: Congressman Southwick’s Speech. “Tonight the representatives of militant and triumphant republicanism have assem- bled here for the purpose of sending to the national conventicn at St. Louis four dele- gates-at-large, instructed to cast their votes for Levi P. Morton. “The imposing character of .this demon- stration in favor of Levi P. Morton's presi- dential canvass is not to be doubted. It avspiciously inaugurates the fight which will be waged for success, and to the end, at St. Louis. Here are centered the vast business interests of the country. Here is the largest city, the greatest industrial center, the leading seaport and the most important money market of the western hemisphere. The business men of the city of New York know Levi P. Morton and honor and respect his character and at- tainments. His judgment is assurance pos- itive to them that the greatest business establishment in the land—the government of the United States—would be run by a business man, on business methods, with due regard to the importance of maintain- ing friendly relations and commerce with the nations of the world, in these troub- lous times, were Levi P. Morton in the White House.” Mr. Southwick’s first allusion to a pro- tective tariff and sound money was ap- plauded, and the name of Abraham Lin- coln was the cause for a rousing cheer. The allusion to Gov. Morton early in the address was the signal for a cheer and ap- plause that caused the speaker to hesitate for a few minutes, and this was repeated at each reiteration of the governor's name. First Expression of Dissent. After Congressman Southwick finished, George W. Aldridge of Rochester arose to report the selection of the delegates-at- large, and when they were named, Thomas Fitchie of Kings arose in the front row and tried to get recognition, but in a min- ute the convention was in an uproar, and the chairman refused to recognize him. When the chairman could get the pande- monium which reigned somewhat straight- ened out, the Brooklyn man was recog- nized, and he read the following minority report: “To the republican convention of the state of New York: The minority of the committée on nominations respectfully dis- agree with the report of the majority in the choice of delegutes-at-large to the re- publican national convention at St. Louis. Messrs. C. M. Depew and Warner Miller are, it is understood, willing to cast their votes in the national convention in accord- ance with the sentiment of their state. It is therefore desirable that their associates be of kindred spirit, and the minority of the committee on nominations respectfully present as the other two delegates Col. Baker 3B. Jewitt of Buffalo and Gen. Sam- uel Thcmas of New York, with the recom- mendation that if it appears after the first ballot that Levi P. Morton cannot be the choice of the national convention, the dele- gaies-at-large from this state will use all honorable means io promote the cause of William McKinley.” 5 Cheering for McKinley. Then pandemonium reigned, one-half of the audierce rising and shouting for Mc- Kinley as the name was read. The chair- man’s gavel was raised again and again,- but without effect. The house was in an uproar. Just over the chairman’s head wee swung a banner bearing this inscrip- tion: “McKinley, prosperity’s advance agent.” The very audacity of the act seemed to appall the Morton leaders for a moment, and for a few seconds the McKinley ad- herents had the floor to themselves. Then from every part of the house came roars of “Morton! Morton!” and the Albany contin- gent, with two Morton banners, took the place of the McKinley men. The trans- formation ntarted and it was a question of lungs agairst lungs. The superior force of the Morton men soon made their side of the issue more prominent. Upon a motion of previous question the chairman then put the Kings county man’s amendment and the roll call was begun. There was no break until Erie county was reached, and after six districts had been called there was a call for a vote on the question by delegates, some asserting that there was a division. The chair then or- dered the names to be called separately and there was a cheer. The roll was called and the majority of the delegates answered “against the amendment.” While New York was voting there were cheers for Platt and Lauterbach, and there were cheers as each delegation up to the twenty-fourth voted against the amend- ment. The twenty-fourth voted for, but the thirtieth and Brookfield district voted against. Wher Ontario was reached John Raines said: mtario resents the insult to her governor and casts seven votes against the amendment.” The chair announced the vote as 631 against and 109 votes for the oe and then there was wild cheer- ing. The full report of the committee was then adopted by a viva voce vote. Senator Lex- ow then announced the fact that the plat- form was ready, and stepping to the front he read the platform as detailed. When the reading of the platform was finished it was adopted without debate and the convention adjourned. Morton, Sound Money and Protection. The following is the platform: ‘The republicans of New York, in conven- tion assembled, again declare their firm and unyielding adherence to the doctrine of pro- tection to American industries, protection to the products of the American farm and protection to American labor. We are in favor of a tariff which, while providing an income sufficient to meet the expenses of government honestly and economically ad- ministered, at the same time secures home labor and home capital from unequal for- ign competition. We believe in a reciproc- ity with other nations which shall give our Producers and manufacturers an opportu- nity to dispose of their surplus products nance of that standard. We believe in a business administration of the government by business principles for the benefit of the suffering business in- terests of this great people. For nearly four years the material progress of the na- tion has been blocked, so that all branches of trade have suffered and the workmen have been deprived of reasonable and living wages by the utter lack of business com- mon sense among our democratic rulers. It is the duty and privilege of the repub- lican party to promptly mend this unhappy state of affairs by nominating and electing a business man for the presidency, and we ask the aid of thoughtful republicans every- where In this great and meritorious work. On this platform we present Gov. Levi Parsons Morton as New York’s republican candidate for President. He is in every way fit for the high honor and he is pecu- liarly the man for the hour. He has been a business man with business men. He would prove a business President for the good of all interests of the people. He has been Representative in Congress, minister to France, Vice President of the United States, governor of New York, and each of these positions he has filled with an ability which has never been surpassed, with last- ing credit to himself and great benefit to his state and to his country. His grasp of public affairs was never so clear and so comprehensive as it is today, and his abil- ity to labor earnestly for the welfare of the nation was never so distinctly marked as now. Gov. Morton's long and varied pub- lic career offers proof positive that he is a sincere and earnest republican, and that fidelity to the principles of his party is with him a second nature. He stands for hon- esty in public office. There is no doubt as to the esteem in which he is held at home. Two years since he polled over 156,000 more yotes than the most popular democrat in the state, receiving by far the greatest majority ever given a republican candidate for governor. Gov. Morton’s long and honorable public service, his spotless character, his great executive ability, his devotion to his party and its principles eminently fit him for the presidency and entitle him to our hearty and enthusiastic support. Therefore, we in- struct cur delegates to the St. Louis con- vention to present him as our candidate for President, and urge upon them to use every honorable means to secure his nomi- nation. MINNESOTA REPUBLICANS. Delegates-at-Large for McKinley— Free Silver Opposed. At the afternoon session of the Minnesota republican convention the delegates-at- large were elected by acclamation, amid wild cheers and a scene of great enthus!asm. Each of the delegates chosen made a speech pledging himself to McKinley. The delegates to St. Louis having been selected, the convention became restless and showed signs of breaking up, and before the candidates for electors had been chosen many had left the hall. J. Frank Wreaton, an alternate from Minneapolis, was called on for remarks, and he made a stirring Mc- Kinley speech. The alternates-at-large and the electors were chosen by acclamation, the first man mentioned for the place secur- ing it. When the name of the last candidate for elector was announced half of the dele- gates had gone, but there was enough left to adopt a vote of thanks to the officers of the convention. Before adjournment the following resolu- tions were adopted by a rising vote: “Resolved, That the well-considered and pronounced preference of the republicans of Minnesota for presidential standard bearer in 1896 is William McKinley, the emphatic, growing choice of the republican vote throughout the land, and this convention expects the delegates and alternates-at- large today to be elected by it to do all in their power honorably from now until that object is accomplished to bring about promptly the nomination of William Me- Kinley for President of the United States. “Resoived, That we favor the use of both gold and silver to the extent to which they can be maintained in circulation, at a parity, in purchasing and debt-paying power; that we are earnestly opposed, under the present condition, to the free and unlimited coinage of silver for the manifest reason that it Would destroy such parity, enormously con- tract the volume of our currency by forcing gold out of circulation and immediately place us on a silver basis. Believing, also, that it ts a self-evident fact that the effect of the international demonetization of silver can be overcome only by the international remonetization of that metal, the republican party of Minnesota most heartily favors an international conference for that purpose.” McKinley Men Beaten at Austin, After waiting all day for the executive committee to pass on credentials looking to the seating of contesting delegations for temporary organization, the Texas republi- can convention was called to order at Austin at 9:15 o'clock last night. A row was immediately precipitated over the mat- ter of electing a temporary chairman. The executive committee’s report recommended Cuney, the Allison leader, for temporary chairman. A. J. Rosenthal, the McKinley faction’s delegate, was also placed before the convention. The roll call was slowly rolled off, resulting in Cuney’s capturing the nomination by a big majority. ——_+o+_____ MR. BAYARD SPEAKS. He Hints at the Recent Censure of His Remarks, - The United States ambassador, Mr. Bay- ard, in responding to the toast, “Kith and kin beyond the seas,” at the banquet of the City of London Pension Society last night, made a significant speech, in which he said: “Your Kindred beyond the seas are as like as two peas to those of Great Britain. The two peas are patriotism and pluck.” Then, after a reference to the charitable disposition of the race throughout the world, Mr. Bayard said: “Your kindred beyond the seas are not always unanimous. Nevertheless there is one voice that appeals to them all. Since I came to England I have never found oc- <asion to change my tone. There is nothing I would say at home that I would not say here, and there is nothing I would say here that I would not say at home. I do not expect unanimity. I would almost say God forbid. “But do not expect us to speak in a tone to suit everybody, for in the system of government originated here and carried beyond the Atlantic, there is something that enables a man to speak according to his own conscience. There, indeed, is the strength of this country, and the strength of my own. When the time shall come that a man shall not dare to speak the thoughts that sweil within him for the public good, God help the country. “Tennyson said ‘Whether bound by friends or foes, man may speak the thing he will," and I believe the echo of these words is as strong in the country of my birth and where my best hopes lie as in yours. Here lies that which shall keep both countries moving onward and upward in the cause of civilization. We will never suppress the truth for fear of evil comse- quences, but will tell it whether we live or whether we have to die.” (Cheers.) ———_-e+—___ A Sensational Chicago Burglary. Christopher Schrage, who is seventy-six years old, and lives alone at 711 South Jef- ferson street, Chicago, was bound and gagged by two men last evening in that city and robbed of money and papers amounting to more than $50,000. The rob- bery was bdne of the boldest ever per- petrated in the city. No arrests were made, and the police are at sea in the matter. The men gained entrance to the house by pretending that they were anxious to rent some rooms, and as Schrage was showing them through the house they threw him to the floor, bound and gagged him. They did not injure the old man to any extent, but threatened him with death if he attempted to make any noise for at least half an hour after they had left the house. ee 5 NERVES ALL UNSTRUNG And Brain, Blood and Muscles Share in the Evil Done.

Rombarding Plates at Indian Hea Made for the Czar's Navy. The Indian Head proving ground was yesterday the scene of a test of armor plate under somewhat unusual condi The plate in question was manufactu: by the Carnegies for the Russian govern- ment for use in the construction of new Lattle ships, and it was terted at the gov- ernment station by officers of the United States navy, as a special act of friendship and comity to the Russian government. But for this the armor would have to be taken to Russia for test, as the manufac- turers have no facilities for such work. Yesterday’s test was entirely successful, and insures the acceptance of the lot of ar- mor represented by the plate. Five shots, feur of which were from a four-inch rifle, ard the ‘fifth from a five-inch gun, were sent at the plate with varying velocities and striking energy, and while each pro- jectile made some impressicn on the tar- get, the plate, on the whole, suffered com- paratively little damage, considering the terrific bombardment received. With a velocity of 1,450 feet per second, the projectile barely entered the armor, and flew back badly shattered. The second shot, with increased powder charge, made more impression, and cauged some radical cracks, while the third and fourth intensi- fied the damage, and the fifth succeeded in knocking off a piece of a corner. The representatives of the Russian gov- ernment who witnessed the trial expressed satisfaction at the results cbtained, and cabled the news to St. Petersburg. Fur- ther trials of Russian armor will take place in a few weeks with heavier and thicker plates. ——_+o+_____ OFFICIAL AMNESTY, Granted to Ex-Confederates W! the Union Service. Senator Hill's bill to remove the restric- tions against the appointment, as officers of the army or navy, of persons who held commissions in the regular army or navy before the rebellion and who subsequently took part in the war on the side of the confederacy, which passed the Senate dur- ing the height of the excitement over the Venezuela boundary question, passed the House yesterday, after two hours’ debate, with but one dissenting vote, that of Mr. Boutelle of Maine. The democrats, except Mr. Cummings of New York, who spoke, as he said, “as one of 8,0 northern demo- crats who fought in the Union army,” and Mr. Wilson of South Carolina, who was drawn into the debate by Mr. Boutelle, refrained entirely from participation. Mr. Hull of Iowa, chairman of the mili- tary committee, who had charge of the bill, admitted that it would subserve no practical purpose and was largely senti- mental. Mr. Boutelle, who led the oppo- sition single-handed, thought it would fur- nish a bad object lesson for naval and military cadets, who were about entering on careers in the service of their country, and when he got warmed up to his subject called attention to the fact that many southern men in Congress in the past had obstructed legislation in the interest of Union soldiers, dwelling particularly on the opposition to the retirement of General Grant. Mr. Grosvenor of Ohio and Mr. Grow of Pennsylvenia, however, support- ed the bill ardently, as a graceful and gracious act to the vanquished, and when the vote was taken Mr. Boutelle alone voted against it. ————————~e.__ The Pensioning of Clerks, To the Editor of The Evening Star: It has been proposed to withhold a cer- tain percentage of the salaries of govern- ment clerks for the purpose of establish- ing a pension fund for superannuated clerks. The cbject is a worthy one, but if the clerks are to be consulted, the younger ones, at least, will not consent to having their small salaries reduced in that way. The pay is already too small to re- tain permanently in the service the bright- est and mest embitious young men. If the clerks ‘cre to pay their own pensions out of their salaries let each clerk save as much or +8 little as he pleases for him- self alone. Do not treat them as children in need of guardians. If clerks are not able to look aftcr their own private affairs, they are not competent to attend to the business of the gcvernment. If clerks go- ing out of the service are allowed to draw out what hac been deducted from their salaries the fund established would not be suflicient. United States judges are retired on full pay, which they continue to draw as long as they live, and they draw it from the public treasury, not from their own contri- butions. If his honor should lay aside a part of his fine salary for a superannu- ation fund, it would not deprive him of the luxurics of life, while many ordinary com- forts wculd be missing in the family of the poor clerk whose modest stipend 1s reduced for any cause. Army officers are retired on three-fourths pay, which is not deducted from the com- pensation of those on the active list. They may, under the law, be retired on account of disability in no way incident to the mili- tary service. In such case they are no more entitled to retired pay than persons in_the civil service. The government clerk, disabled by con- finement in poorly lighted and badly ven- Ulated work rooms gets a curt dismissal with not so much as a “thank you” for wearing out his life in the line of duty. If we are to arrive at that happy state when every man pays kis own pension, it can be done without government interfer- ence by joining some voluntary organiza- tion that pays sick benefits. If the ex- travagant special pensions and retired pay allowed by Congress to other classes of public servants were reduced, there might be enough money saved to provide a bare subsistence for superannuated employes of the departments. THOMAS W. GILMER. +. Disbarment. For falsely representing himself as an agent of the pension office, William B. Phillips, a pension attorney of Guthrie, Okla., was disbarred yesterday from prac tice before the Interior Department.
