The democratic state convention at Springfield, Il, yesterday nominated this ticket State treasurer, Willard F. Dunlop, Jacksonville. State superintendent of public instruc- tion, Perry O. Stiver of Freeport. Trustees of the University of Illinois, Ja- cob E. Seiler of Mt. Carmel, Napoleon B. Morrison of Oden, Dr. Julia Holmes Smith of Chicago. The convention was held at the exposition building at the state fair grounds. William Prentiss of Chicago was both temporary and permanent chairman, and A. C. Bent- ley of Pittsfield was secretary. The chief incident of the convention pro- ceedings was a bitter fight over the ap- pointment of the state central committee of two men prominent as gold democrats in 1896—Ben. T. Cable of Rock Island and Roger C. Sullivan of the fifth congressional district. The fight was carried into the convention, where Cable was denounced as a traitor, but the choice of both Cable and Sullivan as committeemen was finally rati- fied, it having been announced that the: would hereafter support the Chicago pla form. Former Gov. Altgeld addressed the con- vention at length. He said in part: “We are engaged in a war almost as holy as that which we fought for our own independence. This is 2 war for humanity. The democratic party forced the present administration. It is our war, a democratic and it will add not only to the glory country, but to the mighty achieve- of the democratic party.

After The Star's report closed yesterday William Anderson of Philadelphia testified that in the fall of 1806 he received checks signed ed them in the ympany. They were paid on account of some houses which Anderson, as contractor, was erecting for William N. Boggs. The proceeds of these checks, witness said, went to pay for work on the houses. He identified various checks so given, amounting to $080. One check, for $189) Mentioned in the indictment, he said, had never been given by Kenney.’ All the other checks were admitted in evidence. orge J. Ritter of the German-American Title Company testifiee to the transmission of the che osited by Anderson in the regular course of bus.ness. The deposit slips made out by Anderson, when he de- posited the Kenney checks, were admitted In evidence. Letters transmitting the checks to Dover, through the Market Street National Bank, Philadelphia, identified by Charl ers, jr., of that institution, were in evidence. Further evidence was gtven to show that Senator Kenney on April 11, 186, had pur- chased, at Sheriff's sale, a farm in Kent county for Boggs. Boggs, however, had paid the sheriff's percentage on the sa. William N. Boggs, the defaulting tel- ler, and Irving D: Boggs, the latter at present teller of the bank, went over Senator Kenney’s accounts ‘in the ledger in detail from May 11, 1896, to May 29, 1807, the date of W. N. Boggs’ flight. The balances varied, being 4s low at one time as 2 ‘cents, and there was a large number of overdrafts. The latter varied in amount from 46 cents to $456.07. District Attorney Vandergrift sought to show that the latter figure did not include a check for $250 given to Cuth- bert & Co., brokers, for a stock margin, which Boggs had failed to enter, but ob- jection was made and sustained. Some of the overdrafts, it was shown, were not made good uatil three days after being entered on the ledger. Another long contest ensued over the desire of the gov- ernment to compare Senator Kenney's pass book with the entries on the individual ledger, but the court ruled that the prose- ecutiow had a right to do so. Accountant Ross made the comparison and stated that they agreed, with exception of the four checks which W. N. Boggs had stated «hat he did not charge in the ledger. The con- sideration of these figures occupied the court until 5:30 o'clock, when adjournment was taken until today. a A Lynching Near Charlottesville.

RAISING ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS Various Views on the Advisability of Shortening Courses. INTERESTING IDEAS ——— The department of higher education met in Columbian University Hall, and 3 called to order by President R. H. Jesse of the University of Missouri. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia University pre- sented a paper on the question, “Skould the undergraduate curriculu:n ef four years in colieges and universities be short- ened by allowing such freedom of elective in the junior and senior years that a bach- elor degree and a professional degree may be obtained in six years?” Prof. Butler probably the originator of this plan of ar- ranging studies in Columbia University, and has always maintained a deep intcrest in the workings of the system. Prof. But- ler referred to the necessity of a course, a broad, liveral culture preparatory to pro- fessional training. There are only two strictly professional schools in America the Howard law school and the Johns Hop- medical schcol—using the ¢ the s which cannot be entered until a college course has been completed, Too Many Schoots. He said we have altogether too many schocls of la. and medicine in America, many of then. being carried on as private investments, which bring large returns to the proprietors. They admit students, very often, without any ion what- beral educ ever. The time has when iaw and medicine are no lonser learned by prcfes- sicnals. The col'ege seeks to p'ace a lib- eral educaiion underneath the professional training. The college stands between the preparatery schoc e profe: onal course, and must time in such a how that it can {ili the y as to compensate for Mr. G. W. Fitz. the time and mone nt. ‘Lhe truth is that the coliege c arcely effect and the reason is obviously th the student must bi ears old before he twenty-five or thirty an set@e down in lite; ut wherever the college is a part of university and the range of electives very broad, the student may elect {1 such a way as to enter his professional course of training at its second year, instead of at the first. His electives can thus be made to cover the first year of the profes- sional course. At Columbia University, Dr. Butler says, ngement of the course ible has resulted ir these taken by students who take professional courses is especially true of the law courses, though it is true of the scientific and the medical courses also. There are certain students in mental sci- nce and in political science, which all students desire, and these are made avail- able to all in the junior years. All this is possible only in case: so as to being never expect to afterward. This where the college is a part of the unfver tem. In the 420 or 430 colleges this fs not the case the questicn arises whether the course should not be reduced to three years. After reducing the en- trance requirements the _ profesional schools have lengthened their courses. and the question whether the law and medical courses should not be extended wver from four to seven years is continually dis- cussed in our day. The real solution fs not this, but rather to raise the entrance re- quirements and to eliminate those studies now included in the professional curricu- lum which are not immediately connected with professional training. Discussed by Dr. Smith. Dr. William B. Smith of Tulaine Univer- sity, New Orleans, discussed the paper of Dr. Butler. He does not think the experi- ment of Columbia University 1s a radical solution of the problem. There is a great deal of waste due to proper organization and adjustment in our educational system. A great step toward this will be a cutting into t of the college courses, and the policy outlined by Dr. Butler is reaily one step in this direction. The policy of Colum- bia University is really a shortening of the college course; but the natural point of cleavage is at the beginning of the junior instead of the senior year. The German schools give to their pupils about the same training at the age of fourteen or fifteen years which our students get in freshmen nd sophomore y. Dur present college course, without sacrificing any of the cul- ture elements which it contains, may ter- minate with the sophomore year; and the udent may begin his professional train- ing at the age of eighteen or nineteen years. We may say two years. This result is now being accomplished in Germ: ny and England. Our college will be about equiva- lent, on its classical and scientific sides, Lo the German gymnasium and tie real “schule.”” Professor A. T. Ormond presented a very interesting discussion of the question of shortening the college course. The method of shortening the college course in years is one with which Professor Ormond 33 not in sympathy. The four years of college, each of them, are the most important years in the history of an individual. Human life, and their value, is too great both to the in- dividual and to society. In place of the re- duction in years, Professor Ormond sug- gests a reorganization of the educational system as a whole, so that the secondary course wil! not contain studies which can be omitted untii the college course. President J. M. Baker of Colorado Uni- versity emphasized the need of some step in the direction of saving time now lost. He favors the reorganization plan, and the arranging of studies so that a year can be saved by election. He feared we might pessibly be forced to shorten the college course in order to save it. Young people are short-circuiting the college course con- tinually. : President King of Grinell College, Iowa, thought there was the same difficulty with reference to the high school course. Prob- ably the professional courses should con- tain only subjects of professional value, and be preceded by some sort of liberal education. Dr. Hinsdale’s Paper. The second paper was presented by Dr. B. A. Hinsdale of Michigan University, on the question, “Is it possible ahd desirable to form a federation of colleges and uni- versities in the United States similar to the national federation of medical schools?” As to the success of this federation. Pro- fessor Hinsdale says it has been measur- ably useful and successful. The organiza- tion, briefly outlined by the speaker, its aim and method, seem most commendable in themselves. The elevation of the col- leges and universities waits upon the de- velopment of other institutions and of the natural resources of the country. If a federation of higher educational institu- tions will help this elevation, we should have it. Many colleges attempt graduate Work without possessing the means of do- ing it. Very often .colleges-and universi- ties come into existence by duplicating the instruction of other schools when they are not necessary, to say the least. Possibly a federation might be able to exercise a wise restraint upon this tendency. Such a federation would be useful in maintaining high entrance and graduation requirements. The federation need not be made national in its scope, to start with; the distances of different centers from each other might prove fatal to the movement. There is plenty of needed work which such a federation could do. This could be done by discussion and co-operation. There are many obstacles to be overcome. But it is well worthy of thoughtful consideration and discussion. The Boston Alumni. Mrs. Ellen Richards of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology of Boston, intro- duced the open discussion of Professor Hinsdale’s paper by an interesting account of the Boston Alumni Association. Mem- bership was limited to persons possessing a B. A. degree from some college or uni- Charles R. Skinner, New York State Supt. of Public Instruction. versity of good standing. To determine what colleges possess this stan¢iag was difficult. The association has come to ex- ercise an uplifting-influence upon th> curri- cula of colleges, and in some cases has been infiuential in preventing the granting of charters to colleges which would be a burden to the educational system of the country. Alumni interest themsely<s in the elevation of the curricula oi their college: President J. M. Baker of Colorado Uni- versity suggested a plan by which such a federation could be brought about. Officers for Next Year. Professor Taylor of the University of New York spoke on the requirements for law examinations.

BEFORE SANTIAGO" DE CUBA, July 11.—When the fire opened from the Ameri- can lines, after thesconclusion of the ar- mistice, our men were Mm a much better position. Cupron’s ‘ana Hine’s batteries were posted on the Reigits. On the left of the line and in the rear.ef Batss’ Hine, the Hotehkiss, Gatling amd @ynamite guns oc- cupjed a crest on the Tight center and cn the extreme right.. Bests and Grimes’ batteries were posted in the center of Law- ton’s division. Our fight*was strengthened by a brigade of Kent's division, the 6th and 16th regulars, and. the Tist New York, which was pushed fo thg westward until, with Garcia’s line, ft forged an arc reach- ing within @ quarter of a mile of Camera, which skirts the bay and forts. The only road by which General Toral could escape was thus commanded. Small detached bodies of Spatitards had deen ob- served skipping out of town westward early in the morning, including one squad of cavalry. A move was made to cut off their retreat, and a land bombardment be- gan. A shot from Grimes’ battezy was fol- lowed by one of Capron’s guns on the left, and in the right center the Gatling and Hotchkiss batteries opened fire. For the first ten minutes the firing was quite gen- eral, the Spaniards replying spiritedly, but the rifle fire on both sides soon waned, and from 5.o'clock to 6:30, when the action ceased, the firing was confined zimost ex- clusively to the artillery. Our batteries soon got the range and poured shells into the Spanish entrench- ments. The Hotchkiss battery swept .ne outer line of the entrenchments back and forth, cutting down the brush shelters like a scythe. The Spanish were soon forced to the blockhouse. z A Spanish battery on the left of the town, engaged by Capron’s battery, fired only a few shots, but the battery on the right fired spiritedly until a :un-cotton shell from Woods’ dynamite gua exploded directly in front of it, tearing up two trees and dismounting the gun. It was the last shot of the afternoon, and was greeted with cheers. Two men in General Kent’s division were killed by a shell, and several were wounded. Sergeant Jefferson and Private St. Clair of Troop B, Jth Cavalry, are among the wounded. A Spanish deserter came to our lines afternoon for food. He said: “The Spaniards are as good fighters as the Americans, and if we had food and cigarettes in abundance we would fight forever.” General Kent recommends the followin; officers of his division for galantry under fire: Major Sharp, Major Phil Reade, Cap- tain McAlexander, Lieutenant Cartwright, Lieutenant Johnson and Volunteer Aid-de- camp Monroe, who was wounded and will be recommended for a commission. ————+ e+ —___ THE NEW YORK’S PURSUIT. - this Lieut.
