A Wave That Swept Through the Convention, Mr. Bryan, who had hitherto been positive in his declaration to permit himself to be formally placed in nomination, said after taking his seat yesterday afternoon, after speaking on the resolutions in the Chicago convention, that he would defer to the wishes of his friends in the matter. The chairmen of several state delegations that have been heretofore counted for other can- didates, personally assured Mr. Bryan of their support. When in the uproar the procession of ban- ners bearing the names of the different statcs was started there was a rush of Ne- braska men for the Illinois delegation. The Illinois standard was torn loose and a dele- gate started off with it. Before he got ten feet Gov. Altgeld saw him and ordered the standard brought back. “You cannot stam- pede us,” he coolly said. “We have declar- ed for Bland.” The banner was replaced. A moment later the banner of Missouri appeared in the line. ‘Now you can take it,” said the gov- ernor. “Missouri is in line and I guess we can afford to join.” Then turning to the delegates who sur- rounded him, the governor said: “That was the greatest speech ever made. { had rath- er Le able to makw that speech than be President. Common men are sometimes made Presidents, but it takes talent and brains to talk like that.” The Bryan wave had suddenly swept over the convention,and it was the belief of some of the leaders that it marked the beginning of a possible spontaneous movement which may lead to the nomination of the Nebras- ka man. C. S. Thomas, chairman of the Colorado delegation, said that if the vote were taken last night Bryan would be nominated. ries of Four Lectures by Dr. Burroughs. The second in the series of four Bible book studies by President C. $. Burrougis, D.D., of Crawfordsville, Ind., was given this_morning at the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church. After prayer and singing Dr. Burroughs at once began the discussion of his theme, which was “Gala- tians’ Glad News of Freedom.” He spoke of Galaticns 2s being the key-book of the New Testament. He said that for this book one gains an idea of the historical situation of the period, and also something of tne authority and position of the Apostle Paul. He spoke of the great apostle as a man dcminated by one motive, and said that Christians were yet to know and appre- ciate the personality of the Apostle Paul. He referred to the development of the Christian church, and said that its growth was toward Christ, and in this Paul was a leader. In his analysis of the epistle that it was divided into three parts, Paul's defense, Paul’s teachings and his practical inferences. He said that the book of Galatians was typical of all Christian experience. Paul said Christ was revealed in him and the foundation of the faith of the Christian of today is the same as that of the apostle. The speaker referred to the rebuke of Peter as a wonderful scene, and ‘as a striking plea for the spirit rather than the form in religion. A summary of the historical argument was given, and the reasons for Paul's teachings. Paui was spoken of as the apostle of progress in religion. The speaker said tnat sincerity was the quahty that had a pow- erful influence on others, and then went on to bring out some of the practical truths taught by Paul. He said that there was no conflict between Christians, but there was between the church and the world. The message to the church today was to hold on to spiritual experience. The interest in this serics of Bible studies is shown in part by the fact that the large audience room was filled by an attentive audience, in spite of the early hour for be- ginning, 8:40. —— PENSACOLA STORM-SWEPT. Vessels Wrecked and Driven Ashore— Extensive Losses. The Italian brig Diadem, Swedish bark Svea and Norwegian bark Ludvig were blown ashore in Pensacola bay Wednesday. The wind blew from the northeast at sev- enty-two miles an hour, and then changed to the northwest and blew 100 miles an hour, Pensacola being the center of the storm. The Merchants’ Hotei, on Palafox street; the Methodist Church and nearly every business house was unroofed. The streets were made impassable by the fallen trees. No street cars are running. Ail wires are down, the nearest telegraph station work- ing heing at Flomaton. The Pensacola and Atlantic division of the Louisville and Nashville is washed out in plaves. The demage is fully $250,000. ——oe. GREAT FLOODS IN JAPAN. Thousands of Houses Swept Away and Many Lives Lost.

For nearly six hours last night, from the first rap cf the gavel at Chicago to the noigy adjournment, there was a large, pa- tlent and highly interested gathering of citizens on Pennsylvania avenue, in front of The Star office, reading the bulletins from the conventicn as they were thrown upon the screen by The Star's electric stereopticon. The pparatus for the casion was put in place by Mr. A. Hoginski, while Superintendent Chamber- lain of the Electric Lighting Company and Electrician Morgan rendered every need- ful assistance in the operation of the in- strument. The service was excellent. But for a temporary occultation caused by a- bright and inquisitive office boy kicking the ewitchboard over and disconnecting wires the evening’s performance was without a flaw. The bulletins of the Western Union, the Postal, the Assuciated Press and of The Star's special correspondents, taken by four operators over special wires, run into The Star office,--were all and shewn. Our lively fellow citizens at Chicago con- tributed their part liberally to the even- ing’s entertainment, and it was no wonder that at 1:30 o'clock this morning there were still hundreds of people who regret- fully read the final bulletin announcing that the Bland men had secured an ad- journment till 10 o'clock this morning. Should the convention be in session this evening The Siar will, as usual, display all the news of the proceedings promptly and in the same manner. a ee VERY FEW CROOKS. Seem to Have Steered Clear of the Convention. In all the big gatherings yesterday there Was not a single theft reported. Many per- sons reported misplaced umbrellas and lost Be ccmpanions, tut there was not a single cuse to indicate that professional thieves were operating, other than the picking of the pocket of Miss Julia Johnson in the Capitol, as published in yesterday's Star. This morning when the detectives met at police headquarters they had reason to con- sratulate themselves because of the small amount of crooked work that has been done, Detectives Horne and Weedon of the local force and Detective Seymour Butler of the Pinkerton agency made an important ar- rest last night of an alleged crook, whose name was given as George P. Ward. This well-dressed young man has been here for several days stopping at the Metropolitan. He has been endeavoring to muke a dia- mond deal with Pawnbroker Heidenheime: and the deal was to have closed last night, but the dealer became suspicious because of the menner of the young man’s dealing, and later on his arrest followed § When taken to headquarters the young was found to have nearly $W on him, and he admitted that he was a good Men's Lavndered Percale Shit with large cuffs and collars, in neat stripes and checks—in sires from 14 to 19 (lange sizes ®re worth even more)—full back and well made throughout aud perfect fitting.
