- et THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, JUNE 24 HANNA'S TRIUMPH COMPLET Leaves No Breach the Ranks of Ohio Republicans. in THE THREATENED SPLIT AVERTED. Grosvenor Made Permanent Chairman of the State Convention. THE PLATFORM OF PRINCIPLES ADOPTED. Bushnell Renominated for Gover= nor and Thorough Harmony Prevalls. TOLEDO, Omio, June 23.—With the contest ior the chairmanship settled so decisively yvesterday in favor of Major Charies W. Dick and the entire Hanna slate the Republican btate Convention proceeded promptly at 10 A. M. to-day with the usual business. The report of the credentials commitiee was adopted without opposition, as 1t made no mate- rial difference in the real work of the con- vention, which was overwhelmingly with Senator Hanna. The temporary organi- zaticn, with General Grosvenor in the chair, was made the permaneat organiza- tion, and the reportsol other committees were readily disposed of. The committes on platform was in ses- sion all night trying to frame the platform 80 as to prevent a contest in the con- vention over the civil service, Cuban and other resolutions Chairman Kurtz did not attena the con- vention yesterday or to-dey and left at noon for Columbus. Dauring the day there were conferences between Senator Hanna and Governor Bushnell, and the question of a new man for the State chair manship was still agitated. The following platform was adopted: The Republicans of Ohio rejoice in the mag- nificent victory of 1ast year, whereby the peo- ple of the United States overwheimingly de- clared in favor of an honmest dollar anda chance to earn it and elected as President tha splendid son of Onio, William McKinley. The platform upon which that victory was won declares the principles and policies of th Republican party. To all the deciarations of that platform we pledge anew our allegiance and unqualifiedly commend the President and Congress for their wise and statesmanlike ex- ecution of its pledges. The Republican party has always been the friend of the cowntrodden and oppressed and has al-vays deeply sympathized with the truggle of any people for independence. We exiend our sympathy to the patriots of Cuba {n their efforls to achieve freedom from Span- 13h cruelty and oppression, and hope that the day of their deliverance is near at band. We commend the course of the President snd ex- press our confidence in his speedy and patriotic disposition of tne Cuban question in ordance with wise statesmanship and & firm and vigorous poiicy. We believe ikt the administration in ne- gotiating the lreaty of annexation with Ha- weil has acted wisely, and we express the hope thet the enate will ratily the same. We denounce the violation of the spiritof civil service act by President Cleveland 1 those orders which extended 1is operat:on beyond its purpori anc intent, and demand sucn revocation of orders or modification of the law as will accomplish its manifest pur- pos We commend reforms insugurated in the Pension Bureau under the present adminisira- tion and regara them as an earnest of tne sincerity of our pledges 10 the veterans of the Republic, which we here renew, of a watchiul care and recognition and enforcement of their just claims upon & grateful peopie. We fevor the passage by Congress of soch & law as wiil provide a Nxtional Board of Arbi- tratfon 1o secure, <o far ms possible, the ad- jusiment and settiement of such aifferences as inay arise belween corporations engaged in inierstate commerce and their employes. Faithfully wedded to the principle of pro- tection, we demand ior ihe wWool-growers of 0hio such ample protection for wool as shall speeaily incresse American flocks sufficiently 10 snpply all American needs. We indorse the wise, faithful and satisfac tory administration 0f Governor Busnnell, and congratulate the people of this State upon the financial condilion of the commonweaith, whica dewonsirates that the legislative power of ine Stale was economically and honestly exercised by a Republican Legisiature. We promise s continuation of biennial sessions, such legisialion as may be necessary to remedy ihe present inequalities of taxation; the mak- ing of only such appropriations as may be properly required for the needs of our rapidl growing State; and the avoidance of unnec sary specisl legislation, believing that the publican ides of home rule Is best subserved B5 leaving the broadess possible powers of loeal government with the people. The suc- cessof the Republican party will injure the advantages of better schools, better roads and 8l those progressive ideas which will keep OBfo at the head of the sisterhood of Stat The thanks of the people ol this Siate are due 10 Senators Foraker and Hanna for their splendid efforts duriag the present session of Congress, and we congratu!aie the people on thelr representation in the United Siates Sen- ate. Desiring to continue such representation and anpreciating his services to the party and to the people of the State aud Nation, and nis eminent aud proven fitness for the position, we indorse the candidacy of the Hon. Marcus A. Hanna for the United States Senate to suc- ceed nimsel, and pledge the support of the party in the next General Assembiy to his election for both the short and long terms. The mention of Senator Hanna’s name was greeted with loud demonstrations, and aifter the resolution was adopted Hanna was called upon. He thanked the convention for their expression of confi- dence and pledged himselif to co-operate with the standard-bearer (Bushnell) for Republican success in Ohio. Senator Hanna =aid the Republicans bad been warned that this was a danger- ous year. He joined in accepting the chalienge. The Republiicans of Ohio always fight best wiien there is danger anead. The opposition propose to stir up the once-threshed straw. They will revive free silver in Ohio, but never again free wool. He discussed the pend- ing tariff bill atlengih, and paid a bigh tribute to General Grosvenor for his work in the House of Representatives for pro- tection, Senator Hanna said he was now trying in the Senate to keep up with Gen- eral Grosvenor's pace in tbe Honse. The Senator paid the highest tribuie to Presi- dent McKinlev's efforts to bring about prosperity and the best possible condi- tions of the country. Tue President bad many difficulties to overcome, but he would meet the predictions of his friends and the hopes of every body. Governor Bushnell, Lieutenant-Gov- ernor Jones and Mr. McDowell also ad- dressed the convention. Nominations were made as follows: Governor, Asa Bushuell; Lieutenant- Governor, A, W. Jones; Supbreme Judye, Jacob F. Burkett; Attorney-General, Frank Monnett; State Treasurer, Samuel Campbell; School Commissioner, L. D. Bonebrake; member Board of Public Works, C. M. Goddard. 2 The convention adjourned till 2:40 p. ar. Immeaiately after the adjournment of the convention the new State Central Com- mittee organized with Harry M. Daugh- erty as chairman, C. R. Fisher as vice- chairman and Peter Durr as secretary. Daugherty and Durr are Hanna and Dick men. Fisher was a Kurtz man in the con- test for the control of the committee. All were elected unanimously. The convention renominated most of the present State officials, including Gov- ernor Bushnell. In pursuance of an agree- ment made yesterday between Bushnell and Hanna the Central Committee made no selection of chairman, the contest for wkich at one time threatened to split the party. R A ot I0W4 FUSIONIST CONVENTION. Takes in Populists, Democrats Free-silver fiepublicans. DES MOINES, Iowa, June 23.—The Fusionists swallowed Bryanism, anarchy and all to-day without choking. Every mention of Bryan’s name was a signal for the wildest appiause of the convention. The Populists would not agree to the fusion programme and about one-third of the delegates from that convention an- nounced that they would hold a conven- tion of their own to nominate a middle- of-the road ticket. The free-silver Re: publicans stood out for Governor or 8 preme Judge, but these were things the Democrats felt that they ought to have. 1t took all day to get the ex-Republicans to agree to accept the Lieutenani-Gover- shipand Superintendency of Public In- struction. The objections of the silver Republicans to Boies as candidate for Governor were 8o determined that he was not considered by the siiver Democratic convention. Ex-Congressman Fred White was finally nominated. Tue plaform approves the Chicago platform entire and reiterates the princi- ple of free and unlimited coinage of silver at 16 to 1. It says that the prosperity promised by the Republicans lastyear is for the benefit of a few protected trusts which contributed to the campaign fund last year. and ——— OHIO BIMETALLIC CLUBS, Proposed Extensive Urganization to Pro- mote Free Coinage. CINCINNATI, OHro, June 23.—The Bi- metailic Convention to-day adopted the constitution proposed by the committee. It provides that the name shall be ** The League of Ohio Valley Bimetallic Clubs,” to consist of clubs of West Virginia, Ken- tucky, Ohio and Indiana. Theobject shall be to encourage the formation of bimetal- lic clubs for organized work in advocating the principles of the free coinage of silver and gold upon equal terms. Ciubs joining the league are to pay an initiation fee of $L. The officers will be a president, vice- president, secretary and treasurer. The league pledges itself not to influence any political convention except in the matter | of bimetallism, and not to favor any polit- ical candidate. An invitation to hold the next meeting at Indianapolis was received and filed. CORCORAN WILL CONTEST. San Francisco Heirs of the Late Priest Offer No Evidence and the Will Is Probated. BOSTON, Mass.,, June 23.—The will of the Rev. Willinm J. Corcoran, a former pastor of St. Vincent’s Church, South Boston, was allowed by Judge McKim to- day in the Suffolk Probate Court. . The contestants, his aunt Johanna Cor- coran, and his uncle Daniel Corcoran, both of San Francisco, offered no evi- Kdence to support their objections. They | will probably appeal to the Supreme | Court. The value of his estate is now said to be about $50,000. The bulk of it is given by his will to Catholic charities. He gives his uncie and his aunt $100 each. The Carney Hospital of Boston is the largest sharer of his bounty. He gives to it his estate at Dedham, but upon condi- tion, however, of establishing a convales- cent’s home. The first hearing given upon the allow- ance of the will was several days ago, when the attesting witnesses gave their testimony, and the next hearing was fixed by the court then for to-day, when the contestants, it was expected, would offer evidence to support their claims. They did not present any, however, and the will was ordered admitted to probate. e ACTOR RATCLIFFE ARRESTED. Jailed in Chiccgo for Alleged Brutahty to His W.ie in New York. CHIGAGO, Irr, June 25.—E. J. Rat- cliffe was arrested in tuis city to-aay. The charge against him is that he brutally beat his wife in New York, and tifen fled to escape the consequences of his crime. He was caught and lodged in a cell in the City Prison. ward J. Ratcliffe has been connected with the Dauiel and Charles Frohman companies for five or six years as second and leading man. He came into promi- nence first when Henry Milier left the Lyceum company, be succeeding to that gentleman’s piace. While a capable ac- tor, he was personaliy in the company unpopular, because of his profanity. For | a year before he left the Lyceum company | Georgia Cayvan refused to speak to Rat- | cliffe, excepting on the stage, and he was praciically tabooed by the ladies of the company, and only two or three of the men would associate with him. Ratcliffe went trom Daniel to Charles Frobman and had leading roles in several | of the popuiar successes of the past four or five years. His last prominent role was that of the suspected son of Gerald Austin in “The Fatal Card."” About three years sgo he married the pretty daughter of a New York sporting man, and in a few months there were rumors of trouble. Afier the birth of a son, Ratcliffe’s domestic sffairs seemed serener, bu: friends of Mrs. Katcliffe have known all along that he was neglecting and ill-treating her. For a long time Ratcliffe has tried to pose as a matinee idol, but despite his good looks, has never been a favorite.

Marcus Daly, the Montana copper: king and turfman, has made the highest bid for a thor- oughbred ever recorded in America. The fol- lowing brief cable tells the story: CHICAGO, ILyL, June 2 ‘To_Mr. Gubbins, Knocknany Stud. Knockn: Ireland: Wil give $125,000 cash avd Balf of his turf winnings for Galtee-diore. M ABCUS DALY. Bitter Creek S'vd Farm, Montan. “I want Galtee-More because I think he is the greatest thoroughbred of the age,” said Daly. *“I know the stock he comes from, and his progeny shou.d be as valusble as his an- cestry. Formy partwould not care to ra him mueh. Iwould tetire him to Bitter Creek Stud after a season or two of racing.’” While higher prices have been offered, it is doubtful if $125,000 was ever bid by an Amer- ican 107 a runner, The contingent half of Galtee-More's turf winnings, on top of the cash bid, certainly exceeds anything in the way of 2 bid made this side of the Atlantic. Owing to the insurmountable difficulties confronted, the proposed new racetrsck scheme at San Clemente has fallen flat. Among other obstacies the projectors were unable to secures Western Union telegraph service for use in the foreign book, without which the enterprise would undoubtedy have been run &t 8 ioss. Joe Harvey, one of the men of means interested, was in favor of going ahead regar: less of a foreign book, but his confreres a murred, and the ihird track is now but a myth, ockey Eddie Jones, who lost his winning form here last winter, appears to be holding bis own at tl St. Louls track. He piloted Zarina and Bouquet, both favorites, past the wire first yesterda: 01d David was beaten out in a hard drive by the good sprinter Gath, in furlong event decided in muddy going ! Louis yester- day. The winner carried 121 pounds, and is practicaliy unbeaiable at the disiance around that section of the country. Tdolator, & two-year-old owned by Ed Cor- rigan, received substantial backing in the Sausalito poolrooms to win the fifth event at Latonia, but failed to run inside the money. Harry Kubl, the very efficient assisiant sec- retary of the Pacific Cosst Jockey Club, b recaived an offer from President D. J. Campau to fill the same position at the track over which he presides at Detroit, and will depart for that place on Friday, returning hore again in the fall. Reports from Mexico say that a horse pois- oner recentiy paid Colonel Pate’s track & wisit. ‘Among the horses poisoned were Articus and Morgan 6, the outlawed jumper. Articus did not die, but will be unabie 0 race again. 0l Sidkel has deveioped a muli tion, which i sire, Siddarths, who is aileged to have been 80 contrary that he would rather back up two miles tban gailop half a furlong.

INDIANAPOLIS, 1xp., June 23.—At the State Bar Association’s annual meeting 10-day ex-President Bsnjamin Harrison presided aud made a strong plea for a | better judiciary. He said: | Ttmay bethatin the construction of some of our grest appellate courts, especially the Supreme Court at Washington, there are party divisions upon great constitutional questions, such as those Which arose during the war, that may fairly enter into the appointing | power.

He walked up and looked in- to his grave, knelt down and prayed with | Rev. John McIntosh. He was then shown u large stone at the head of his grave by a little tree where he proceeded to sit down, facing death bravely. He ad- vised all young men to be honest with their fellow men and not iollow his ex- ample. After he had finished his speech he was shot to death by the light horsemen of the Okmulgee district. He was convicted the third time for the same crime of larceny and was refused pardon by the chief, which alone could save him. Everybody seemed to sympa- | thize with the condemned man, and the execution was witnessed hy a crowd of about 200 persons ot S DEMAND FOR sMALL MNOIES. The Early Increase *aid 0 Augur In- erensing Business. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 23.—The Treasury Department within the last week hes received a considerable number of re- quests for small notes in unusually large quantities. This inquiry was entirely un- expected, and is confidently regarded by treasury officials as an indication of im- proving business conditions. At least once a year the treasury meets demands for small notes from the West and South, where they are needed for the movement of the crops. Rarely, however, has the inquiry begun early than the 10th or mid- dle of July, and therefore it is assumed that the cali for notes of small denomina- tions is not in anticipation of the crop movement. It has become s0 general, nowever, particularly in the South, that traasury officials ascribe it to renewed ac- tivity in general business. = oemats Kirkhoefer Keasserts Innocence. WASHINGTON,D.

Harvard Second in a Grueling Finish With the Nervy Cornell Crew. A Magnificent Freshman Race In Which All Three 'Colors Beat the Record. POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y., June 23.— With steam whistles blowing, cannon roaring and thousands of people cheering in the wildest enthusiasm the Yale fresh- men shot across the finish line on the Hudson River to-night three lengths ahead of Harvard, who were about a The race, which was magnificent at all stages, was the forerunner of the more important 'varsity contest next Friday. i Rough water delayed the start until 7:09 | o’clock. Harvard caughit the water first, rowing thirty-five strokes to the minute. Cornell was a close second, white Yale was pulling out at thirty-six and last. At the half mile Harvard was ahead, having about a quarter of a length the better of Yale, while Cornell was very close. Har- vard at this point was still rowing thirty- five strokes, but their rivals both dropped to thirty-four. Then Yale’s brawn began to tell. Yale gained inch by inch until the three-quarter mile mark was reached, when the New Haven men gained the lead. They were over a length ahead at the mile and a half post, and at the mile and three-quarters mark had two lengths to the good. Their stroke meanwhile was lowered to thirty-three. They crossed the two-mile mark in 9:19}§ amid the wildest cheering. The finish between Harvard and Cor- nell was of a grueling nature, and when Harvard got over the line about one length ahead the crimson rooters were satisfied. But the strain must have been severe, for the stroke oar fell over as if in a faint and the man behind had to dash handfuls of water in his face to revive him. Nos. 4, 6 and 7 were also in trouble. No. 4, in the Cornell boat, looked dilapi- dated, too, but otherwise the men were in | good condition. All thrse crews beat the best previous treshman record of 9:41, made by Colum- bia on the Thames June 24, 189l They were greatly aided by a strong tide and a good breeze in to-day’s race. HIS SENTENCE SUSFENDED. Commander Booth-iucker Not Allowed to ““Play to the Galleries.” NEW YORK, N. Y., June 23.—Bentenca has been su-pended upon Frederick de Latour Booth-Tucker, head of the Salva- tion Army in Americs, in the Court of General Sessions for keeplng a disorderly house and maintaining a nuisance in the barracks on Fourteenth street. He ap- peared shortly before court opened, ac- companied by A. Oakey Hall, his counsel as the trial, and by General Benjamin F. Tracey. The commander of the Salvation Army in America was in the full regalia of his office and did not look at all disconcerted. Judge Newburger rapped on his desk and suspended sentence in a few words, indi- cating the nature of the prisoner’s offense. He had just got as far as, “'I am informed that you are ready to obey the law,’’ when the prisoner interrupted: “Iam not sure I can accept suspended sentence under such circumstances,” said Booth-Tucker, meaning that he would rather be a martyr outright than be let off with & scolding. “I have here a fow re- marks which I will read,” he continued, whipping out of his pocket a roll of type- written manuscript about 90(0 words in length. No; I shall not permit it,” said the Judge, sharply. “I shall not aliow any playing to the galleries.” Booth-Tucker looked disappointed and retired with his roll of remarks. Later he gave it to the reporters. It dealt with the technical nature of the charge, with the relief of the poor in winter, with Moham- medans, the resuits of Chrisiianity and the battle of Bunker Hili. BIUDENTS FiGHT HARD, Class Battls in Chicago Results in Physi- cal Damage. CHICAGO, Irv, June 23.—A bloody melee on the battlements of the Ryerson Pnysical Laboratory in which heads wers thumped and backs belabored put an ab- rupt end to the senior ciass exercises at the University of Chicago. It was senior day and when the flag of that class was flung to the breeze it wasa signal for several hard battles between its deienders and a small army of uuder class men. The flag was saved from capture, but the face of Prevident James Scott Brown of the senior class was badly battered in the conflict, and Harry Coy was thrown down the stairs of the Ryerson tower and picked up at the bottom with a dislocated shoulder. Many other students were more or less hurt. An investigation of the fizht is to be made by the university authorities and students believe that it may resultin che expulsion of some of the leaders in the conflict. — e NEW YO-DA should have the place of honor on your dining-room table, being a rich and most delicious beverage, an appe- tizer par excellence and a sure health sustainer.
