Outside a large crowd shouted for the king, who, however, did not appear, and the crowd gradually melted away and spent the rest of the day in the streets through which the proceseton had passed, inspecting the decorations. One of the most striking features of the Sixteenth and Douglas Sts evil_at which they would bid us strike? In what respect do we Americans of today in our personal and natiomal life fall short of the Americans of the day of Jefferson and Jackson? The answer must come spontanéously to the mind of every man present. Within the last few years we have all be- come conscious of o great and ominous change in the conditions under which we live, a change which fills every thoughtful ma,i with regret and foreboding, a change which has crept across the spirit of Ameri- can Institutions and cast over all a sinister shade of doubt and fear, dimming the bright suniight of freedom which we once regarded as our jnalienable birthright. Usarpation Brings Change. This chunge has not come about by vio- lence and bloody revolution, but by the insidious advances, the secret usurpations of a claks of Pa erful men, a class c stantly marrowing untfl it is now scarc more than & group. It has not been accomplished by open and avowed attacks upon the right of suffrage, of freedom of speech or of the pre or upon any of the express rights upon which we have been taught to look as the safeguards of liberty, but it has come with the gradual cornering of our mines, our coal and oil flelds, our highways, the great original sources of production, the means of transportation, the avenues of empioyment, until the time has arrived when the once free born American is born into a mongpolized and fenced-up world, in which he must walk in the mighty shadow of the owners of his country and ask of them the right to labor, to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Must Meet the Issue. Here lles the wrong at which the spirits of Jefferson and Jackson bid us strike. This issue we must meet.

W. Hamilton of Sigour- ney was made permanent chairman and the other ‘temporary officers were made per- manent. Mr. Hamilton proceeded with an extemporaneous speech, in which he went over the political situation thoroughly. The committee on credentials reported all com- mittees represented. A rule for ten-minute speeches was adopted. The convention then awalted tho platform committee report. No Reference to Kansas City. We, the chosen representatives of the democratic pani); in lowa, in delegate con- vention assembiéd; hereby declare anew our faith in the fundamental principles of the democratic party and renew our alle- glance thereto. We find much in the domestic affairs of the nation that ought to be changed. The tariff - originally adopted for the avowed purpose of raising revenue to meet the enormous burdens of the civil war has been turned to use of individual and class intesests until it has become the creator of countless unearned fortunes and the shelter of huge combinations of capital, organized in the form of trusts, which are strangling competition in many'of our industries, de- individual effort, crushing ambi- tion largely in every line of industry and already acquiring @ power which enables them to dictate in thelr own interest the prices of labor and raw material and the cost of transportation of finished products. ‘We declare our unqualified opposition to the principal of go\'rrnmvm by Injunction.

United States senators by direct vote of the people. We are unalterable opposed to the polic; of imperialism by this government, tuted, fostered and maintained by the re- publican party, and we demnand. that our government shall declare it to be its pur- pose, and without delay, to adopt such meagures as ehall give fo. the people of the Philippine islands and Porto Rico their inalienable right of self-government. We condemn the republican for its financial policles which would folst upon the country an unstable cnrrency based upon uncertain private securities. We protest against the plan presented in the Aldrich bill recently before the United States senate by which the money of the nation shall be loaned to capitalists upon the bonds and_securities of private corporations, as an effort to give value and stability to watered bonds and securities of corporations and trusts, many of which are maintaining monopolies in defiarice of law and public sentiment. We insist that the Integrity of the money of the nation be guarded with zealous care and demand that it shall be sufficient in volume to meet themeeds of the business interests of the country and that it shall be safeguarded by careful‘leglslation, so as to prevent the gamblers of Wall ' street from cornering the money market,. thus inflicting untold injury upon the smaller business men, the farmers and ghe la- borers of the’ land. We deplore the corrupt condition of .the government service in the Postoffice de- Pariment and demand a thorough Investi- gation of that and other departments by a congressional committee, publicity as. to such conditions and punishment’ of all wrong-doers. As these most alarming features of our present conditions are the evils which come from trusts, and these evils are made possible by 'legislation favoring one class and against another, by transpor- tation privileges and by monopoly of orig- inal sources of supply of natural products, therefore, to the end that the evils con- nected with the growth of trusts may be “liminated, we call for the removal of ‘he tariff from all trust-made goods and demand that all tarlff schedules be ad- lusted with . view to tarlft for revanue only. We ask for such changes in our law, statutory or constitutionnl, 'as will limit the charges by railroads to such an amount as will yleld only a reasonable return on the capltal actually invested and will ren- der 1t impossible for trangportation. vors to bé granted to anyone and such as will make it certain that all railway com- panies will be treated alike. such statutes to provide penalties that will be effectual to_secure a compliance with' them.

" Reorg ty report is made a Wé move -the sub- fty for the majority s Double Majority. The convention was &ll'wrapped up in the platform idea.” With ‘@ record of having won last year by about fitty majority, the reorganizers started out today and doubled their majority.. They refused to be drawn into a discussion and consequently’ the feeling was fairly good when the conven- tion was done. The majority Teport of the committee on resolution was presented at 3:30 by E. M. Sharom; who moved adop- tion. Immediately thereafter J. M. Parsons offered an amendment which wolild com- mit the party ‘to the principle 6f govern- ment ownership of raiiroads where neces- sary to cure the evils of rallroad dom- inance. The vote came squarely on this amendment and it was defeated by 19 to 628. Then the minority report by the free silver men committing the party to the Kansas City platform was presented by W. H. Robb of Creston. It was signed by four members. Debate followed by Robb, G. F. Rinehart and Walt Butler for the minority report and by E. M. Sharon in opposition The effort to close' the' debate at this point caused pommotion and ‘Colonel C. H. Mackey insisted on speaking and had to be called down by the sergeant-at-arms. This was the only time the convention became noisy. The debate was short and of little interest, ‘but there was no bitterness. The silver men knew they were already beaten and their talk was mild. The vote was 35 for silver and 463 against it. The plat- form was then adopted unanimously, after a short reference to raising tariff for rey- enue only was inserted. Tieket Quickly Named. As soon as the platform was adopted the ticket was named quickly. The nomination of Jerry Sullivan of Creston was made by Sam Wright of Tipton and seconded by Lew Genung of Council Bluffs. The defeat of government ownership had ended the candidacy of Judge Van Wagenen and he had instructed his friends not to present his name at all. Sullivan was nominated by acclamation. The rest of the ticket was as quickly named, as follows, and the con- vention adjourned: whole day's proceedings was the evidence of relfet caused by the arrival of the king. There was an entire absence of disturbances and, apparently, the only thought given to the tragedy which changed the dynasty was by King Peter, who, when passing the old palace, momentarily ceased his salutations to the cheering crowds to gazo on the scene of his predecessor's murder. The whole town was glven over to re- joleing. The peasants held their national dances and everybody was in holiday garb, After luncheon the king held a confer- ence with the ministers and discussed the situation. There is no lack of people, conversant with the inner life of the Servian capital, who declare that the apparently untversal enthusiasm was a cleverly stage managed demonstration and that many expressions of regret were uttered privately and that but for the maunted officers who circu- lated among the crowds commanding the people to cheer for King Peter, much of the outward signs of rejolcing would have been absent. An_immense torchlight procession was the feature of tonight's illumination of the city. When the procession reached the Konak, the king's appearance on the bal- cony, surrounded by his ministers, was greeted with a tremendous outburst of cheers from a dense mass of people gath- ered in front of the palace. His' majesty read a speech in which he sald that in accordance with the traditions of the Karageorgevitchs and helped by the experience he had gathered during the forty-fiVe years he had spent abroad, he would try to give the people the govern- ment they required. After patriotic songs had been sung by choral mocleties the king retired and the crowd dispersed. Insult King of Roumania. VIENNA, June 24—A dispatch from Bucharest says the king of Roumania has recelved an insolent telegram signed by several officers of the Sixth Servia infantry, of which regiment he recently resigned the honorary colonelcy. The officers declare in oftensive language that King Charles is not competent to Jiidge their actions. They say that he him- selt ascended the throne of Roumania after a military breach of faith atd.add that they forego-with pleasurs ‘the distinction ot .their regiment. bearing the Roumantan king's name. American Minister Withdraws. WASHINGTON, June 24.—State depart- ment officfals say Unite® States Minister Jackson has left Belgrade on his returd to Athens, to which capital he is also accredited, via Constantinople. This course will be in line with that adopted by the diplomatic representatives ot Great Britain, Germany, France and the other countries which have up to date refused to recognize the new Servian gov- ernment. POPE INVESTS NEW CARDINALS Bestows Red Hats on Pfinces and Then Keeps Them in Conversation. ROME, June 24.—In the throne room at the vatican, surrounded by his whole court, Pope Leo, who looked much better than at Monday's consistory, invested, with great ceremony, the red birettas on the new cardinals, Mgrs. Nocella, Cavvicehion{ and Fischer and congratulated them on the high honor they had attained. Cardinal Nocella in the name of his col- leagues thanked the pontiff and then made a move to retire, but his holiness detalned the new cardinals and insisted on haviog them in his private study, where he kept them in conversation for some time. There is a keen demand for tickets to the public consistory, to which none but ticket holders will be admitted. CIRCUS ATTACKED BY MOB Refusal of Management to Iasue Com plimentary Tickets Makes Trouble. SAN JUAN, P. R., June 24—A mob of 300 at Coamo last night attacked a circus which was giving a performance there. The employes defended themselves ‘with guns until the police arrived and quelled the disorder. “fon persons were wounded and many ar- rests were made. The riot was caused by the refusal of the circus management to issue complimentary tickets.

[YALE HONORS JUDGE GRAY Many Honorary Degrees Oon’erred on Last Day of Qommencement Week. HADLEY DECLARES GREEK UNNECESSARY Says an Great Benefit ¢ from Other Studie: tor Be Derived bat Pleads Closer College Life. NEW HAVEN, Conn., June 24.—The pre- sentation of degrees to the members of the graduating class in all departments of the university, and the conferring of hon- orary degrees by President Hadley, formed the chief function of the closing day of Yale's commencement week. The Cobden club medal for proficiency in political economy was awarded to M. B. Terrell, Decherd, Tenn., of the academic senfor class, while the John A. Porter uni- versity prize was won by Richard Webb of Durham, 8. C.,, a graduate school student, for an essay on Sidney Lanier. The honorary degree of doctor of laws was conferred on George Gray, judge of the Uniteq Btates circult court of Delaware, and Willfim D. Alexander, surveyor gen- eral of the Hawallan lslands; doctor of divinity upon Rev. Lyman Abbott, and master of arts upon Herbert W. Bowen, United States minister to Venezuela. Why Yale Dropped Greek. At the annual banquet of the alumni, at which about 1,500 men were presant, Presi- dent Hadley dslivered an address which was largely a report of the work during the past year, saying in part: Every American university which glves the degree of bachelor of arts has been confronted with two questions: 1. Shall the four years' course tained? 2. 8hall Greek silll be made an pensable requisite for the degree?, The first of these ‘questions Yale con- tinues to answer in the affirmative, The second it has decided to answer the negative. In our experiménts wo have found the consecutiveness and difficuity of study which were characteristic of the rigid sical course of earlier days can, by proper restrictions, he secured in other subjects also. We belleve that we can bet- ter co-operate with the secondary schools and better meet the demand of those wno seek an academic course by Insisting upon these standards of difficulty and consecu- tiveness than by demanding one particular study which some schools cannot teach and some parents do not wish their sons to learn. The abolition of the sophomores’ societies has heen follo by a growth of public spirit and a better feeling between the dif- ferent parts of the college community. The chief danger that menaces the solidarity of Yale college life comes from the formatlon of influential grouns of students who live outside the college bufldings. If we can make the college life of the ordinary man, who has neither money nor influence be hind him_big enough to be the really im portant thing In the institution, we can dis- regard diseased spots which might other- wise be dangerous, because we may be sure that the genernl strength will be sufficient to eliminate the danger and react against| the evil. 1t is a matter of great satisfaction that the dormitory system, hitherto confined to thé academic department, {& to be extended to the Sheffeld Sclentific _school. ~The munificent gift of Frederick Vanderbilt has allowed the Sheffield trustees to acquire a considerable amount of land in an excellent location just south of the school and to ercct bulidings theréon for dormitory pur- poser. be re- indis- in The faculty of the Forest school has been greatly strengthened by the appoint- ment of Mr. Gifford Pinchot to an addi- tignal professorship.

Judge Kirkpatrick Whether Next NEWARK, N. J, June 24.—When the arguments to obtain a receiver for the Unlted States Ship Bullding company were resumed today. Charles L. Corbin of Jersey City declared that the reorganization plan recommended by the committee of which George R. Shel- don is chairman was the only loophole of safety in the present condition of the cor- poration’s financial affairs. Addressing himself to the question of in- solvency Mr. Corbin declared that the alle- gations contained in the bi’l and the state- ments of opposing counsel purporting to prove the inability of the corporation to pay its maturing liabilities were based on hearsay evidence. He Insisted that the cor- poration was solvent, within the meaning of the statutes, and said that under federal laws the court could have no jurisdiction unless it found incontrovertible evidence of both fraud and insolvency. Insolvency without fraud removed jurisdiction into the state courts. As to the possibility of carrying on pres- ent contracts under a recelver, Mr. Corbin contended, innumerable difficulties would arise, any one of which would result in great finanelal loss. He was most insistent that government ‘contracts mow in hand should be completed without interference, Mr. Corbin dwelt at length on the danger to all bondholders in the appointment of a receiver and declared that no receiver could carry on the business, as he would be un- able to compel the directors of the sub- crdinate steel companies to turn over funds. R. V. Lindabury for the com- plainants expressed the opinion that a re- celver would have the power to issue re- celver's certificates that would be a prior lien over the first mortgage bondholders. In beginning his argument for the de- fense R. H. McCarter sald It was a signifi- cant fact that nc mention was made In the bili as to the time when Roland B. Conklin purchased his stock and bonds. He de- clared there was one thing by which the complainants are bound. ‘The defendant corporation acquired its steel plant and ship yards,” he sald, “at a time when neither Charles M. Schwab nor Lewls Nixon was a director of the corpora- tion. The purchase was indorsed by eves single stockholder's vote.” Mr. McCarter's conclusions were that not | the slightest harm could follow the con- | tinuance of’the present conditions, pending | final hearing, but that the appointment of a recelver would ruln the credit of the cor- poration. He declared that if a receiver were appointed the government would im- mediately exercise its right and enter into | possession of the fourteen vessels of war now under construction, Justice Kirkpatrick will clslon some day next week. { OMAHA MAN ROBBED AT PUEBLO Herrington Loses $60,000 While Sleep- ing in Depot Walting Room. ender his de- PUEBLO, Colo,, June 24.—A real estate agent named Herrington from Omaha, who stopped here enroute east from Durango, was robbed of a valise sald to contain $60,000 worth of securities at the Unlon depot.
