SR Pt CHICAGO, July 6.—A special to the Record from Canton, Ohio, says: A Judge Willlam R. Day, president of the Paris Peace Com- mission and former Secretary of State, in his address here at the celebration of In dependence day, has been construed by many to mean that the United States Government held Spain responsible for the blowing up of the battieship Maine, The following is the paragraph in ques- tion: “In the realm of international law we have set a new and high example to the nations of the earth. Enduring, un- til patience ceased to be a virtue, the cries of an oppressed people, observing the obligations of neutrality until organ- ized tyranny and oppression culminated in wanton treachery and the destruction of an American vessel and an American The United States transport Rosecrans | had a lively time of it in the ice while on the way to Nome.

Leaving Seattle on June 2 the Rosecrans | made good progress until June 15, when | she went on a sand bar off the coast half | way between St. Michael and Nome, where she remained three days.

The work of lightening up the Rosecrans has now commenced and all hands are at work taking out cargo.

Another at- tempt was made to move the ship at high tide to-day, but still not a move. Another trial was made early on the morning of June 16, and although we moved some distance astern we are still hard and fast. At 5:30 p. m. June 17 the tug Meteor came alongside and was engaged to stand by us and give any assistance we might need to get the ship out in deep water. ‘We have four large rafts of lumber, three of the ship's life boats and four surf boats all loaded with freight alongside.

But every raft and boat we had loaded with freight is out of sight. While the work of getting ready to pull the ship off was going on very lttle attention was paid to anything else, and the wind that kept driving the ice toward us sent a large pack of ice along, which took hold of our rafts and boats and carried them away. The Meteor was at once sent off to hunt them up, and she returned about 9:30 with two_of our large rafts and one of the life boats. She again went out and brought in two more of | the boats, but all the freight they contained | was gone. The other rafts, four surf boats | and one Iife boat are still at large and we ve no hope of ever seeing them again. | Reloading the freight and lumber saved was | then pushed on rapidly and at 6 a. m., June 15, the anchor was again taken up and we headed in toward Nome, shy about 100,000 feet of lumber, 500 packages of general merchan- dise, one life boat and four new surf hoats. We ran up close to the ice, and after finding it was impossible to get through to Nome we turned about for Dutch Harbor, and before reaching open water had to run through sev- | enty miles of very heavy drift fce. | Thursday, June 21. we arrived at Dutch Har- bor at 6 p. m. and dropped anchor.

RS e The new Democratic State Central Com- mittee ,will meet for organization at the California Hotel in this city on Monday, July 16. The call for the meeting was is- sued yesterday by Seth Mann, chairman of the outgoing State Committee. The Democrats are making extensive preparations for the Bryan and Steven- son ratification meeting at Metropolitan Temple this evening. Ex-Governor James H. Budd, Robert Ferral and W. H. Alford are among the speakers on the list. The Kansas City nominations were not received with special demonstrations of joy By San Francisco Democrats. Four years ago, just after Bryan was nomi- nated at Chicago, the local lights of the party went wid with enthusiasm, dicting that the ticket would sweep the country. Yesterday there were not many predictions of Democratic triumph. Re- grets were expressed that Hill of New York declined second place on the ticket. Extreme disappointment was caused by the action of tne convention in yielding to thie decree of Bryan in reference to the 16 to 1 plank of the platform. Leading Democrats threw up tietr hands and ac- Knowledged that the main chance of party success had been thrown away in the declaration for free coinage of silver. Democrats had hoped to go into the cam- paign as advocates of sound money, but Bryan's determination to force the silver | question to the front and the convention's surrender of principle to his whims aashed their hopes to the ground. No one could be found yesterday at the head- Quarters of the party in_the California | the Hotel. Inquiries develop the fact that Democrats propose to devote special at- tention to candidates for Congress and the State Legislature. There is Demo- cratic sentiment in favor of nominating State Senator R. Porter Ashe for C gress in the Fourth District. It is said that Judge Coffey will not accept the nom- ination. _Conjecture that Gavin McNab desires the nomination is not fou cn fact. Last night Mr. McNab said that he would not accept the position even if it were otfered to him by appointment. In Republican ranks it is admitted th: Julius Kahn will be renominated. No doubts of his electlon were expressed un- til the report was confirmed that Martin Ke and Phil Crimmins Congressionai Committee in that district had petitioned for a separate convention. Members of | the State Central Committee were sur- prised when they heard of the petition for a separate convention in the 'ourth, as no opposition whatever to Mr. Kahn's renomination had been reported. So far as can be ascertained the main purpose that Crimmins and Kelly haye in view is to perpetuate their hold od the com- mittee of the district. The convent that nominates the candidate will also a point a_committee to comprise the gov erning body of the party in the district for the next two years. Republicans should not blind them- Ives to the danger of losing a Represe: tative in Congress from the Fourth Dis- trict. If Mr. Kahn's nomination is de- sired from a_convention controlled b Crimmins and Kelly he will be defeated. The clean and loyal Republicans of the various Assembly districts comprising th Fourth Congressional District shou!d or- ganize at once to defeat at the primary election every delegate put forward by the odlous and corrupt bosses of the Mint Saloon. The bosses expect that ‘the con- test for delegates to the State convention at Santa Cruz will divert the attention of voters from the duty of selecting respon- sible citizens to compose the Congres- sional district convention. At first glan the easy-golng citizens will = “What's the use of scanning the list of delegates to | the district convention, as there is no op- position to Julius Kahn." Therein lies the danger. ~ If the district convention be composed of delegates put up in the Mint Saloon the brand of Kelly and Crimmins will be placed on the nominee of the con- | vention The bosses already apprehend that the people intend to elect decent men at Santa Cruz. Hence they are afr: that the clean and decent delegates at Santa Cruz will name a clean Congres- sional committee to govern the party in the disiricts.

Colonel George Stone, chairman of the Rerubucan State Committee, will soon leave San Francisco to attend the con- vention at Paul of the National t. League of Republican Clubs. He is presi- dent of the league and will call the con- | vention to order. The executive committee of the Young Men's Republican League of San Fran- cisco Clubs met last evening in the Mills bu!lmn? The committee met for the pur- pose of receiving reports from the com- mittees recently appointed to reorganize the Assembly district clubs of the league. The committee reported the election of officers in each of the district clubs, and also that the membership in some of the districts was unusually large in compari- son with two years ago. The date for holding the annual high jinks was set for October 6, and a com- mittee was appointed to secure B'nai B'rith Hail for the occaston. The president was empowered to ap- oint a campalgn committee consisting of our from each Assembly district.
