Last February the two sons secured in- formation of the Klondike gold fields. They bade their old mother good-bye and left quietly for the gold fields, reaching there in the early spring.

Democratic Selections for Auditor General and Treasurer. The democratic state convention at Read- ing, Pa., nominated the following ticket yesterday: For auditor general—Walter E. Ritter of Lycoming. State treasurer-M. E. Brown of Blairs- ville. The question of selecting candidates was overshadowed by the contest to force the retirement of Wm. F. Harrity from the national committee. The opponents of Mr. Harrity succeeded in pushing through by a vote of 290 to 134 a resolution indorsing James M. Guffy of Pittsburg, for the po- sition. Mr. Harrity’s friends contend that the state convention had no power to de- clare his seat in the national committee va- cant, and that he will not surrender. Mr. Harrity, who is summering at At- lantic City, said in an interview yesterday: “I am not greatly disappointed at the outcome. When I recall that during the campaign of last year the names of such democrats as Wm. €. Whitney and David B. Hill were hissed at, meetings held in Tammany Hall because of their refusal to acquiesce in all,ef the declarations of the Chicago sare » I find it quite easy to be philosophical over the situation. “The action of the .Rennsylvania com- mittee and convention isto be regarded as a disapproval of refusal to believe in the free and unlimited) coinage of silver and gold at the ratio 16 to 1 without waiting for the aid or consent of any other nation. But it will mot thange my opinion in that respect. In°my judgment the time is not far distant When‘ the democracy of Pennsylvania will recede from its present Position. It must soft it desires to win victories in Pennsylvania.” ‘As to his position'on the democratic na- tional committee, Mr, ‘Harrity said: “That will be a matter for the national committee itself, which ‘s the only body authorized to act in the premises.

Ber- ger of Milwaukee, who was sccretary of the committee which prepared the declara- tion of the St. Louis labor conference, calls attention to an error in the sessions as sent out. He says that a demand was made for the public ownership of “mines and railroads,” not of “railroads and tele- graphs,” the public ownership of mines be- ing considered by the conference as 3m- portant to the body politic as the owner- ship of railroads.

PARIS IN ECSTASY Great Rejoicing Over the Alliance Just Concluded With Russia. RULERS EXCHANGE GREETINGS Another Bomb Explosion Folldws the President's Arrival. NO ONE WAS INJURED ees Seen PARIS, September 1.—President Faure, referring in an interview to his visit to Rus: is quoted as saying that every- thing passed off wenderfully well and that one could not dream of anything better, Admiral de Courtiile, in an interview on the same subject, sai: “The czar upon several occasions ex- pressed to me the happiness he felt at signing the treaty of alliance, and spoke with a warmth and enthusiasm which could not be misunderstood.” Dispatch to the Czar. It was given out today that upon the ar- rival of President Faure at Dunkirk yes- terday morning he sent a dispatch to the czar, saying: “At the moment I place my feet once more upon the soil of France, my “first thought is for your majesty, her majesty, the empress, and the whole Rus- sian nation. The magnificent and cordial reception given to the president of the republic calls forth throughout France a feeling of emotion and joy.” “It will leave in our hearts an ineffa:’ able memory. “I beg your majesty once more to ac- cept the expression of my thanks and the Wishes I entertain for your majesty’s hap- piness and that of the empress and the imperial family and for the grandeur and prosperity of Russia.” Nicholas Replies In Kind. The czar replied to this message from the Lazeisky palace, at Warsaw. He said: “The empress and myself are extremely grateful for your kind words just sent to us. It is with pleasure that I shall pre- serve the memory of the visit paid by the Fresident of the republic to Russia, whose heart has once mere beaten in unison with that <f France. NICOLAS.” Another Bomb Explosion. In the midst of a whirlwind of enthu- siasm over the return of President Faure from Cronstadt yesterda the city of Paris was startled by the news of an explosion of another bomb. Fortunately, no one was injured. The explosion took place within the rail- ing of the church of the Madeleine, minutes after the president had pa church on his way to the Elysee. rests followed immediately, inclosure was clo: Two ar- and the railed by the police, who be- gan an active investigation into the out- rage. All the persons inside the railings of the Madeleine were immediately exain- ined by the police before they were allowed to leave. The affair, following so closely upon oth- ers of a similar nature, especially one on the day of Faure’s departure from Paris, caused the greatest excitement. The fragments of the bomb found by the police resembled those found in the Bois je Boulogne June 13, and on the Place de la Concorde June 16. It consisted of an iron tube filled with an explosive and loaded with nails. At the prefecture of police the bomb ex- plosion was not attributed to anarchists, but it is rather believed to be the work of a lunatic, who was responsible for previous similar affai “DOWN WITH ENGLAND!” Parisians Take Affront at Action of British Embassy. LONDON, September 1.—A special dis. patch from Faris, published today, say: that cries of “Down with England raised outside the British embassy in Pari last night because that building was not illuminated in honor of the return of Pres- ident Faure to the French capital after his visit to Russia. Two lads, the dispatch adds, were rested outside the em! sy for partici- pating in the demonstration, and were sub- sequently released with cautions. BIALK STILL ON THE STAND Luetgert’s Night Watchman Cross-Examined by the Defense. He Sticks to His Story About His Employer's Strange Actions on Night of May 1. CHICAGO, September 1.—The interest in the Luetgert murder trial was unabated tcday. A majority of the spectators were women, who had come early. Outside the court hundreds waited in line, unable to enter. The big sausage maker, the centrai figure in the trial, was apparently in the test of spirits, betraying no outward ef- fects of the strain of the trial. He com- mented, not in bitter terms, on the tes- timony of his old employe, Bialk, the watchman, who, te said, was a simple, honest man. “He is an ignorant man,” said Luetgert, “and, like an elephant or bear, can be trained. He has been well trained By the police.” When tke cucrt was called to order As- sistant State’s Attorney McEwen an- nounced that he had authorities at hand on the questions which were left unde- cided yesterday, whether the visits of Mary Mann or Mary Simmering, the Luet- gert family servant, to Luetgert in the factory were admissible as evidence, out the state would prefer to argue the ques- tion later. Judge Tuthill said Bialk could be recalled later in the trial and the ques- tion decided. Bialk Cross-Examined. Attorney Vincent then began the cross- examination of Bialk and put to him ques- tions regarding his connection with the police since May 16. Mr. McEwen objected, but Attorney Vin- cent declared it would be shown that Bialk had not been out of the sight of a police- man for five minutes since the arrest of Luetgert, and ‘the defense had not been able to get a minute’s conversation with him. The cross-examination ‘proceeded, and Bialk testified that since May 16 he had been with Officer Klinger,living at the latter’s house and paying no . He had done no work, but Inspector Schaak had provided means for his wife to live and pay rent. Mr. Vincent brought out the fact that Ee to May 1 the watchman had met uetgert in different parts of the factory at all times of the night. Sometimes the Sausage maker walked about the building and even in the yard at late hours. Bialk said he led the actions of his em- ployer on the night of May 1 as suspi- us, because he turned on the steam into. the basement at 9 o’clock. This was unusual. It was made plain to the jury in the cross-examination that Bialk, from his po- sition in the boiler room, could have looked through an opening near the elevator and Soe are oon men’ ne 80, he pe Seow sroeitimot do tor him to be Bialk Bertha Washington, Speaking of Bertha was eight fe and after rec menced to dixchange ing.

This is his first experi- ence in English country house life since coming as ambassador to the court of St. James The leaders of London society, who made Lis acquaintance during the jubilee sea- son, have been eager to have the ambassa- dor us a guest. More invitations to coun- try houses have come to him than he could accept during a whole summer.

Consul General Lee Reports Regard- ing Evangelina Cosio Cisneros, Consul General Lee's investigation of the cese of Evangelina Cosio Cisneros has re- sulted in sweeping away a great decal of the romance surrounding it. He has cabled the State Department from Havana that the girl is not the niece of the Marquese of Santa Lucia, as has been publicly pro- claimed, but is the daughter of a poor and reepectable Cuban named Augustin Cosio. Her mcther’s name being Cisneros, was added to her own, according to the Span- ish custom, making her full name Evan- gelina Cosio Cisneros. Moreover, Gen. Leo reports that the girl is one of six children, and was not raised in wealth and luxury, as has been represented. % on Recent Patents Granted. .
