The feature 6t the convention was the strong Roosevelt sentiment. The friends of Mr. Balley comtrolled the convention from the start and begad by electing ae temporary chalrman George E. Cole, who said, on taking the chair: “Let us bury all our differences; let us do all our fighting against the enemy. Let us be republicans; let us endorse thor- oughly that splendid republican, our presi- dent, Theodore Roagevel Sk In"respondl!

The convention, . after effecting perma- nent organization, transacted business with great alacrity, Mr, Balley being nominated on the first ballot and there being no bitter contest for any of the other offices. The platform reaffirms“adherence to the principles of the natiopal platform of 1900, eulogizes Willlami McKipley and strongly commends and endorses the administration of President Roosevelt, of whom it says ‘We are proud of his abflity, his courage and his sturdy Amiericanism and we pledge him the cordial and earnest support of the republicans of Kanfas:" y ' Just and reciprocal trade relations with Cuba, retention of the Philippines and 1ib- eral , pensians are.advocated.

HOUSE MAY NOT TAKE KINDLY TO THIS Appointment of Colonel Grigsby Sald to Be a Personal Compliment from the President and Not Charged to the State. (From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, May 28.-—-(Special Tele- gram.)—It is stated tonight that an agree- ment will in all probability be reached by the republican senators of the committes on Cuban affairs upon the Cuban reciprocity bill within the next twenty-four hours. The indications are that the agreement will be in the nature of a 20 per cent reduction for five years, ‘with all other provisions of the house bill eliminated. While an agreement may be reached upon the bill and such a bill reported from the com- mittee it is exceedingly doubtful if such a measure can pass the senate without se- rious opposition, as some of the leading senators insist that if a reduction is had upon sugar coming into the United States from Cuba, the differential must also be taken off refined sugar. house republicans will do with a measure making a 20 per cent reduction s sub- ject for much speculation. So far as can be learned there seems to be no change among those who voted against a 20 per cent reduction on sugars coming from Cuba into the United States, and If they are serious In their protestations against any- thing but the house measure, a very inter- esting contest may be looked for. Senator Millard today introduced a bill for the relief of the Nye & Schnelder com- pany, appropriating a small sum of money due the Nebraska firm for fuel furnished the government for heating the postoffice at Hastings, Neb. Personal Compliment of President. The appointment of Colonel Melvin Grigeby of South Dakota to be United States attorney for the district of Alaska is a personal appointment of the president, 80 far as ‘could be learned tonight. The South Dakota delegation, while being con- tent with his nomination, did nothing for or against Colonel Grigsby's candidacy. Colonel Grigsby became prominent at the beginning of the Spanish-American war by organizing a regiment of Rough Riders, and it was during his military career in the Spanish war that President Roosevelt met him. He has been an active candidate for “something” for some time past. He de- sired the South Dakota delegation to glve him their endorsement, but they frankly said they could not do so under the cire cumstances. They said they would not op- pose his nomination to any position that the president desired to honor him with, but they could not go on record in view of the fact that there were so many deserving republicans who ought to be taken care of first. Representative Shallenberger of the Fifth Nebraska district made a speech today in opposition to the Hill subsidiary coinage measure, which the house took up. The speaker and Mrs. Henderson gave 2 dinper to the following Iowans in the speaker's private rooms in the basement of the capitol: State Auditor and Mrs. Frank Merriam of Des Moines, Insurance Examiner /and Mrs. Max Beehler of Des Molnes, George A, Burden of Dubuque, Jul- fan:cRichards of Waterloo and Leroy I. McNeeley. Representative Thomas Hedge of the First lowa district left tonight for Nor- folk, Litchfield county, Conmn., where he is to deliver the Decoration day oration. P, M, Starnes, secretary of the National Life and Trust company of Des Moines, is in the city. E. K. Valentine of West Point, Neb., is also in Washington. Representative Hull will accompany Rep- resentative J. W. Wadsworth on a visit to the latter's farm in New York state. Senator Dietrich today recommended the reappointment of J. W. Mondisett for post- master at Alda, Hall county. Bank at New Town. The comptroller of the currency has ap- proved the application of the following persons for authority to organize the First National bank of Bonesteel, 8. D., with 25,000 capital: F. W. Rathman, J.

WILL VOTE ON BILL TUESDAY Senate at Last Reaches Agreement to Dispose of Philippine Measure. WASHINGTON, May 28.—An agreement was reached in the senate today by which a final vote on the Philippines government bill and all ameniments will be taken up next Tuesday at 4 p. m. Peifling the vote, the senate will meet at 11 o'clock each da: except Friday, when the senate will not sit, it being Memorial day. On Monday and Tuesday the debate will be under the fifteen-minute rule. Mr. Burrows of Michigan explained the bill at length today and urged its enact- ment, maintaining that it would advance the interests and promote the prosperity of the fslands. In his judgment it would be & mistake to accord to the Filipinos now self-government and independence. Such & proceeding could result, he said, only in disaster to the inhabitants and possibly anarchy in the islands. A joint resolutipn was passed providing for the printing of 20,000 copies of the pro- ceedings of the unvelling of the statue of the Count de Rochambeau. A bill was passed providing for the oc- cupancy by the Grand Army of the Repub- lic of the new public priniing bullding dur- ing the national encampment in October. Miller Corrects Hoar. Mr. Hoar presented a letter from Gen- , U. 8. A, correcting what id was an error in a recent speech of Mr. Hoar, who had eald that Geperal Mil- ler “notoriously did want an attack and Aguinaldo met it with speedy deflance,” the reference being to the issuance by Geperal Miller of President McKinley's proclama- tion, a part of which was suppressed by General Otis, In his letter Genersl Miller sald Mr. Hoar was in error. He said he had not been informed that the president's proclamation was not to be issued in full. He was not anxious for a fight and always bad advised the Filipinos to accept the soverelgnty of the United Btates, as he De- Meved the United States would grant them their reasoaable desires. Mr. Hoar sald the letter was evidently that of a sintere and honest gentleman. He acquitted General Miller of publiehing the proclamation in order to bring on hostili- tlee. Lodge Makes Amendments. Mr. Lodge then offered some amendments to the bill, all being of minor character except those reducing the amount of land to be taken up by one person from 160 acres to forty acres. The amendments were agreed to. Mr. Lodge sald the Philippine committee had not determined yet what change, it any, should be made in the preparation of the bill enabling a corporation to acquire 5,000 acres of land. He thought some change in the provision might be made. but what it would be he could not say. Mr. Burrows of Michigan then addressed the senate on the general features of the pending bill. He sald he believed the time had come when the future course of this government as to the fslands must be de- termined. If the present course was to be followed he thought that fact could mot be too clearly pointed out. He believed the enactment of the measure of, the majority Would promote the Interésts of the Filipinos and advance the prosperity of the islands. Not Fitted tor Autonomy. Mr. Burrows sald he did not belleve that the Filipinos were fitted for self-govern- ment. If he thought they were he would unhesitatingly urge that independence be granted them. Mr. Burrows in- conclusion maintained that the action of the majority report on. this bil was the only safe and honorable course for the United States to take. Eventually he belleved the hope of the dead President McKinley would be re- alized and the Fillpinos would jlook back with rejolcing on the day when the Amer- fcans landed in the Philippines. The senate passed the following bille: Authorizing the Board of Supervisors of Santa Cruz county, Arizona, to issue bonds for the erection of a courthouse and jal granting title to the town of Juneau, Alaska, to lands occupled for school pur- poses and for other purposes; adjusting certain conflicts respecting state school in- demnity selections in lieu of school sec- tions in abandoned military reservations. DEMOCRATS AROUSED BY BILL Minority Members Oppose S Coinage Measure in Be of Silver Dollar. tdinry t WASHINGTON, May 28.—The house spent the day debating the bill to increase the subsidiary coinage by coining the eflver bullion in the treasury, and to recoin stand- ard silver dollars the public nec sities may require. The limit of subsidiary coinage s now $100,000,000. The bill in- creases this to an indefinite amount in the discretion of the secretary of the treasury. The bill aroused the opposition of the democrats, who claimed it was only a step in the direction of the complete striking down of the silver dol The debate drifted into a general discussion of the sil- ver question. Very little interest was shown and Mr. Cochran twice made the point that no quorum was present. Mr. Newlands of Nevada finally offered an amendment to make subsidiary silver s legal tender and this amendment was pend- ing when the house adjourned. Speaker Henderson attended the funeral of Lord Paundefote today and by his desig- nation Representative Dalzell of Pennsyl- vania presided over the deliberations of the house. . Bills were ‘passéd to authortze the re- linquishmént to the United States of patent Jands anfl cléims within the limits of the Sequola, Yoseniite and General Grant na- tional pérRs And éxterding the time for the construction of » bridge acro#s the Missouri river at Oacoma, 8. D. It provides for the colnage of the silver bullion in the treasury aad the recoinage of silver dollars into subsidiary coin public necessities might require. The amount of bullion in the treasury was 44,- 520,910 ounces, its coinage value in dollars being $57,562,389, and in subsidiary coins $61,546,100. In the course of his remarks Mr. Hill declared that the legal tender silver dol lars had cost the government $350,000,000 in the last twenty years, which, he argued, was convincing proof of the wisdom of thelr retirement. When Mr. Hill concluded the attendance had dwindled until there were not over twenty members on the floor and Mr. Cochran of Missourl made the point of no quorum. The bells were rung and in few minutes Mr. Tawney, who was in the chair, was able to count a quorum. The debate then continued. Mr. Bell of Colorado opened against the bill. He declared that every great panic from which the country had suffered had been precipitate? by the “currency tink- erers,” like Mr. Hill. The ultimate aim of Mr. Hill and his friends, he said, was to create an all powerful banking trust which would control the issue of paper currency. If their program was carried out, he sald, all the currency would fs- appear except gold and bank paper. The pending bill, he sald, was one of three and the only one the republicans dare pat in the face of the congressional elections. Mr. Smith of Towa argued in support of the bill that instead of being a measure of contraction it would increase the amount of money in circulation to the extent of sllver bulllon colned, over $60,000,000. Mr. Grow of Pennsylvania offered an amendment providing that the subsidiary coins should consist of balf dollars, 10 and G-cent pleces of proportionate weights of 121 grains. To this amendment Mr. New- lands offered an amendment providing that such coins should be a full legal tender for all debts, public and private. Kuox Has Heavy Cold.

Soft Coal Miners Are Expeoted to Join the | Anthracite Btrike. FRANK P. SARGENT GIVES HIS VIEW| Says Men Are Abie Mont! dleness—No Strike of Railronds s Looked For. to Endure Six ST. LOUIS, May 28.—~Frank P. Sargent, member of the Natlonal Board of Arbitra- tion, of which Mark Hunna is chairman, s in St. Louls to meet his wife, who is on her way here from the southwest. Mr. Sargent is of the opinlon that if the strike of an- thracite miners is not settled within the next eight or ten days there will in all probability be a sympathetic strike In the bitumihous flelds. Mr. Sargent sald to the Asrociated Press: The individual members of the National Board of Arbitration are using their best efforts 1o bring about a settiement of the strike, Last week the members of the board met with the operators and representa- tives of the United Mine Workers of America In an_effort to secure concesslons from either side that would be the means of settling the strike. The operators re- fused to arbitrate or concede a single point and President Mitchell was obliged to re- turn to the headquarters of his order with nothing that he could offer the miner: They accordingly struck for the advanc in wages asked for. Able to Endure idieness. Up tu last Monday, when 1 left New York, both sides weré standing firm, and from' the condition of things I think the country will see a bitter contest. 1 was told by President Mitchell that the miners were never in_ better financial condition than now to enter a strike and they are confident of winning For some time the anthracite miners have had plenty of work and have been able to lay by money. President Mitchell 18 of the opinion that they will be able to hold out at least six months and doubt- less longer. In the meantime everything possible is being done to arbitrate. 1 am of the opinion that if the strike i8 not settled within the next eight or ten deys miners in the bituminous fields will be asked to go out in sympathy for thelr eastern brethren. A convention of bitu- minous miners to decide what action to take fn the matter is under contemplation, but the date or place of meeting has not Jet. to my knowledge been decided on hould a sympathy strike be decided on Probably as many as 40,000 miners in the {tuminous flelds will go out. Mr. Sargent was asked if he thought the strike would later involve the railroad men. Railroad Men Will Not Strike. “No,” he sald, “I do not think the strike will spread among the railroad men. It is against their rules to go into such a strike. Aside from the freight handiers on the coal roads affected by the preeent strike, I do not believe it will be felt by the rallroads. In event of a strike among the bituminous minets anyone cam see that the effect will be disastrous, because almost every line of business will feel the result. Everything is being done, however, to avert this strike by the members of the arbitration board.” Police Dispe CHICAGO, May 28.—An attempt by strik- ers to curtall the meat supply of downtown hotels and restaurants was frustrated early today by the police. In response to a riot call a patrol wagon fllled with policemen rharged a crowd of striking teamsters who had surrounded four drivers for Swift and Company and had threatened them with bodily injury. The crowd was dispersed and in a shart time the police were in full possession. - The stiriking packing - house teamsters took further steps today to extend fthe strike. Orders went out from the team- sters’ headquarters that no coal should be delivered to the concerns making ice to refrigerate meat for ‘‘unfair” butcher- shops or packing houses. This development promises the most complete tieup of team- ing deliveries ever experienced in Chicago. Butchers who use meat delivered by non- union drivers will lose their ice and con- cerns that make their own ice will lose their coal. At the Fulton market storage concerns are known to refrigerate meats for Swift and Armour and their supply of coal is in danger. Numerous other plants are similarly imperilled pending the set- tlement of the strike. INDIANAPOLIS, May 28.—A telegram was recelved by W. B, Wilson, secretary and treasurer of the United Mine Workers of America, saying that President Mitchell had missed his train at Chicago and would not arrive in Indianapolls until late this after- noon. ~ Mitchell was expected at headquarters to consider the anthracite strike, the trouble in Virginia and West Virginia and to meet a delegation of the Indiana miners and op- erators who have been trying for some time to agree on matters of a local nature in their section. Secretary Wilson sald President Mitchell would probably not take up the matter of issuing a call for a pa- tional convention until after the confer- ence with the Indiana people.

HOLD STATE FUNERAL (Continued from First Page.) H. H. Freeman, the organist and choir director, and Miss Anita Clues played in solemn rhythm Chopin's grand funeral march. Then through the choir door on the left came the choristers, in their white and black vestments, singlfg the hymn, “For All Thy Saints,” followed by Bishops tterlee and Mackay-Smith. The choristers marched up the chancel steps and took their customary places in the stalls and the two bishcps proceeded to the door of the church to meet the remalins, The casket was borne up the entrance steps, and then, turning about, Bishops Satterlee and Mackay-Smith preceded It back fnto the church, reading the scripture verses beginning “I am the resurrection and the life, saith the Lord" and “I know that my Redeemer liveth.” At the foot of the chancel steps the casket was lowered to the walting stand and then the first of the hymn selected by Lady Pauncefote, “The Saints of God, Their Conflict Past,” the music by Sir John Stainer, the famous BEnglish composer, was sung by the cholr. The bprial anthem, taken from the Psalms, was then sung to fhe old Gregorian chant by the choir. When this quaint old English chant ended the officlating bishop advanced and read in a firm, even tone the lesson for the burial of the dead, taken from the fifteenth chapter of the firet epistle of St. Paul to the Corinthians, beginning “Now Is Christ risen from the dead.” Solemn Benediction Pronounced. When the lesson was finished the choir sang the hymn “On the Resurrection Morn Soul and Body Meet Again,” and then chanted the apostle’s creed to music by Sir John Stainer. The bishop, & splendid figure in his white vestment, advanced to the front of the chancel, and, standing above the bier, pro- nounced the last words that will be spoken over the remains before their interment at the ancestral home at Preston, England. As the solemn words, “Man that is born of woman is cut down llke a flower” and “In the midst of life we are in death,” were spoken the church presented a most beau- tiful and impressive picture. With this solemn ceremony over the cholr sang “I Hear a Voice from Heaven' and afterward the hymn “Now the Labor- er's Task {s O'er.” The closing prayers were then said and then, after the benedic- tion was pronounced, the choristers took up the ‘stralds of “Jesus, Lover of My Soil"” " and mirchéd in” slow cadence down the chancel steps and out the door to the left. Meanwhile' the body bearérs had lifted the casket again and carrled it slowly out of the door to the right, followed by the two bishops. As iy was being placed into the hearse tie mingled strains of the organ and harp again sounded through the church, this time in the grand, solemn measure of “Dead March from Saul.” At the sound of a bugle the head of the fu- neral escort swung up the etreet, leading the march to Rock Creek cemetery. At the express wish of the family the march to-the cemetery was limited to the squadron of United States cavalry, which marched at first slowly and then more rap- idly between the lines of troops at “pre- sent arms.” Not evén the honorary pall- | bearers were called on to accompany the remains further than the church, for it was held that here the religious services had terminated. So, with the mourners in | thelr carriagee and the officiating clergy- men and a few of the embassy staff, the re- Paine's Celer, Compound Will Secure for You the (Health that Other Medi- cines Cannot Give.
