Following is an abstract: “The Republican party of the State of New York, assembled in convention for the first time since the death of President ¥ as its first duty an ex- fon of profound sorrow at his un- end.

The friction which developed yesterday and which threatened to result in a party breach had entirely disappeared this morning and the leaders talked in the most harmonious way. Senator Platt sald that if he had made any aspersions on Woodruff he had forgotten them. Wood- ruff failed to remember any criticism against Senator Platt.

The candidate for Con- gress in that district will be John Wright of Thompson County. Chairman Dunn was induced to retire from the Congres- sional race because it was believed that his services would be needed to conduct the campaign. He Is a member of the State Railroad Commission and it had been planned that if he was elected to’ Congress he would resign the commis- fonership and that Congressman Sher- man of Utica would succeed him. Now that Dunn is out of the race for Con- gress Sherman will be a candidate for re-election. Congratulated by Roosevelt. ALBANY, N.

Praises the Platform of the Cali- fornia Democracy. RIVERSIDE, Sept. 24.—Riverside’s De- mocracy gathered in Loring Theater to- night and was addressed by the. Demo- cratic nominees for Governor and Lieu- tenant Governor. Judge John F. Crowe presided and Hon. Frank F. Findlayson of Los Angeles was the first speaker. Findlayson compared the gubernatorial | candidates and presented Lane as a man who at the opening of his campaign did not need to defend his position on the la- bor question. He declared that a Gov- ernor should be great not only in intel- lectuality, but in sympathy. Dockweil and promised ) should pursue his unholy vocation on the floor of the Senate, Lane gave a critical analysis of the two | State platforms. Of the Democratic plat- form he said: The planks of the platform divide them- selves into three classes: First, those that re. affirm the loyaity of ( lifornia Democrats to the fundamental principles of Democracy that | have been sustained by generation after gen- | eration of Democrats from the days of Jef. ferson down through those of Jackson and Douglas and Tilden to our own time; second, | those which emphatically declare the sympathy of Democracy with the rights of labor in the industrial struggle that is now going on, and. third, those which set forth a comprehensive programme of legislation for the advancement o: California and the interest of her people. Lane's perroration, declaring his lov. for the State and admiration of its golden | possibilities, was a fine bit of orato; was loudly applauded. e LANE IN LOS ANGELES. Addresses Employes at the Street Railway Carshops. LOS ANGELES, Sept. 24.—Franklin K. Lane, Democratic nominee for Governor, addressed the employes of the Los Ange- les Railway Company at the shops to- day. Lane said in part: You people of the south are not sentiment that exists in the mopth 1n faunri s the Democratic party ticket in this State. From what 1 know of this sentiment.

At the Santa Fe La Grande station to- morrow he will be met by the Iroquols Braves and a brass band and escorted to Hazard’s Pavilion, where the local mati- fication meeting will be held, under the auspices of the Democratic League, e Franklin K. Lane Club. SAN JOSE, Sept. 24.—The young Demo- crats of this city have formed a Franklin Lane Club. Permanent organization was effected last night. About 150 mem- bers have signed the roll. The officers are: President, T. E. Lahan; vice presic dent, Peter Regan; secretary, A. H e burn; treasurer, Walter Fitzgerald; mar- shal, John Meyer. Branches will be estab- lished in the différent wards of the city and in the country districts. A marching club also will be organized. TRAGES HISTORY OF PIOUS FUND Mezxico’s Representative Explains to the Ar- bitrators. Church, He Asserts, Never Had Proprietary Right to Money. THE HAGUE, Sept. 24—When the in- ternational arbitration court which is hearing arguments in the Pious fund @laims between the United States and Mexico reassembled to-day Attorney de la Croix resumed the presentation of Mexico’s case. He criticized the decision of the previ- | ous arbitrators that the only effect that he founding of the fund was the propa- gation of ‘the Catholic religion and said the founders gave the money to the Jesuit missions in California because they knew the Jesuits were working to secure the subjection of the natives in the name of the King of Spain. When the Jesuits were expelled the King of Spain appropriated the fund in accordance with the desire of the founders and in accordance with his right. The church never possessed a pro- prietary right to the funds of the religious community. Counsel asserted that the church ad- mitted having no_right to this money by its acceptance of the appropriation de- cree issued by the King of -Spain, and added that decrees of the Mexican Gov- ernment affirmed that the money belong- ed to the State. The treaty concluded at Guadaloupe in 1848 exonerated Mexico from liability to America and the Cafi- fornia bishoprics established under United States law after 1848 had no right or claim upon Mexico. Mexican law pro- hibits religious associations from acquir- ing property and under this proscription the claim had lost all rights. The hearing was adjourned until Sep- tember 26. MILES VISITS SAN DIEGO AND FORT ROSECRANS Sees His Lieutenant General’s Flag Hoisted for First Time on This Coast. SAN DIEGO, Sept. 24.—Lieutenant Gen- eral Nelson A. Miles arrived in San Diego this afternoon to inspect the post and Fort Rosecrans. In the party are Gen- eral and Mrs. Miles, Colonel and Mrs. M. P. Maus, B. Frank Hall, a personal friend of the general, and A. L. Flint, his stenographer. They came in a pri- vate car, which was delivered to the San- ta Fe by the Southern Pacific at Los Angeles. The visitors were immediately taken in charge by Colonel Vogdes, M: jors Kneedler and Rolfe and aptain Fleming of the lqcal post, and hurried in the carriages to Commercial whart, where the launch General de Russey was wait- ing to convey them to Fort Rosecrans. The flag of the lieutenant general’s rank ‘was raised on the launch, the first time it has been shown on the Pacific Coast, and the commander was evidently pleased to see it. General Miles inspected the fort and the quarters, as well as the improvements being started there to make a four-com- pany post on the side of Point Loma, just back of the fort. After the return the party became the guests of Mr. Bab- cock in a carriage drive on Coronado Beach. They returned to: their car late in the evening. General Miles will start back for San Francisco to-morrow. ——— LONDON, Sept. 24.—Evelyn' B.

GERTIMAN TARIFF DEBATE HALTS IN A DEADLOCK Reichstag [ajority at Odds With the Govern= ment on Revision of Duties. ERLIN, Sept. 24—The Govern- ment and the Reichstag majori- ty have reached a deadlock on the tariff. The Imperial Secre- tary of State for the Interior, Count von Posadowsky-Wehner, enunci- ated to.the Reichstag tariff committee to- day more sharply than ever before the Government’s determination not to accept the bill as amended at the first reading, and the committee immediately revoted the meat and animal duties to the same rates as at the first reading, to which Count von Posadowsky-Wenner had par- ticularly objected. Herr Herold, the Centrist leader, af- firmed that without these duties the Cen- trists would not support the bill, and one by one representatives of the Agrarians, of the Town Conservatives factions and portions of the National Liberals sus- tained Herr Herold's position. Count Posadowsky-Wehner made a con- fidential statement to the committee re- specting the Government's reasons for L o e T S S MILES ENXIOUS 10 MEET GODY Hurries to San Diego to Greet His Old-T.me Friend. ‘When Lieutenant General Nelson A. Miles of the United States army left Port- land, Or., it was fully expected that he would come direct to this city. He ar- rived in Oakland Tuesday morning and left immediatelg#or Southern California. Why he decided <o inspect the. fortifica- tions at San Diego before those on San Francisco Bay was a puzzle to many un- til the reason for his hurried trip to Southern California leaked out. General Miles and Colonel William Cody, better known as “Buffalo_ Bill,” have been life-long friends. They had an appointment to meet in this city while the Wild West Show was here, but owing to a stress of duties General Miles was unable to keep the engagement. General Miles arrived at San Diego yes- terday and Buffalo Bill and his Wild ‘West Show opens there to-day. A desire to meet Colonel Cody is now known to be the reason why General Miles decided to immediately inspect the fortifications at San Diego. Lieutenant General Miles and Colonel Cody are old Indlan fighters and enjoy getting together and talking over old times. Whenever General Miles has a chance he publicly expresses his admira- tion for “Buffalo Bill” and explains in detail what a splendid scout and of what service Cody was to the War Department years ago when the Indians were trouble- some and were constantly on the warpath. General Miles will arrive here next Sun- day and will review the troops at the Pre- sidio on Monday morning. ‘Woodland Shooting Affray. ‘WOODLAND, Sept. 24.—Charles Burgess shot Byron McNeill in the shoulder late last night. The wound is not serious and McNeill will recover. The two men had trouble early in the evening and McNelill | got the better of it in a rough-and-tumble ight. Late at night Burgess intercepted McNeill while the latter was on his way home, knocked him down with the butt of his pistol and then shot him. Burgess was intoxicated when arrested. rejecting the minimum scale of duties on animals and meats. These reasons are understood to be in connection with the negotiation of the new commercial treat- ies. Upon a member inquiring how much the Count’s remarks were confidential, the Secretary replied that the Govern- ment wanted to know openly that all the Federated States were opposed to the an- imal schedule as amended, He also dwelt on the importance of continuing the com- mercial treaty policy. Count von Kanitz, one of the Agrarian leaders, here interjected that the tariff bill “is the main thing in making treaties, but secondary so far as the agricultural classes are concerned, for they have no interest whatever in treaties like those now existing."" The ‘Conservative papers adopt a pessi- mistic tone regarding the bill's prospects. The Kreuz Zeitung says the outlook could not be more gloomy. The Town Council of Frankfort-on-the-Main has adopted a | resolution asking the Reichstag to revoke the prohibition against the importation of American canned meats and sausages. ROOT PRAISES WAR'S RESULTS The Cabinet Officer Ad- dresses R :publicans in Peoria. PEORIA, Ill, Sept. 24.—Secretary of ‘War Root was the speaker at' to-night's meeting of the Illinols League of Repub- lican Clubs. The Coliseum was packed to the doors and the Secretary was vocifer- ously applauded. His address was con- fined entirely to the recent troubles In the Philippines and Cuba, and not once | during the evening did he mention the | tariff or the trusts. He sald: The first spoken words by President Roosevelt when taking the cath of office at Buffalo were: “It is my purpose to continue absolutely un- broken the policy of President McKinley for the peace, prosperity and honor of our beloved 1 challenge judgment upon the truth yalty with which Theodore Roosevelt has | redeemed his promise. | The work of pacification and construction in | Cuba had been completed.

Of all the executive problems following in the train of the Spanish War the problem of | the Philippines alone remained. ~Success there | had not then been demonstrated, and it was | | still possible that the fallure there might lead the American people to withdraw power from Republican hands. Accordingly the Phillippine policy of the administration was attacked. The Secretary spent some time in tellin; of the attacks made upon the adminis. tration by different members of the Sen- | ate and House and said ‘‘the whole army and its generals were Involved in _the common denunciation.” He continued: Against the contemptuous and injurious as- | persions upon the soldiers of the United States | I will call four witnesses: The first is Wil- | llam McKinley: “If any orders of mine were required to insure the merciful conduct of mil- | itary and naval operations they would not be lacking, but every step in the progress of our troops has been marked by a humanity which has surprised even the misguided insurgents.’ The second is President Schurman, and joip- ing with hitn Admiral George Dewey, and the other members of the first Philippine Commis- slon: “It is to. those who derive satisfaction from seeing isolated occurrences, regrettable, DR. KILMER'S SWAMP-ROOT. The Cause of Many Sudden Deaths. There is a diseass prevailing in this country most dangerous because so _— I % pneumonia, - heart failure or apopl are often the res: of kidney disease. If kidney trouble is al- lowed to advance the kidney-poisoned blood will attack the et vital organs or the Kidneys themselves break down and waste away cell by cell, Bladder troubles most always result from a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is obtained quickest by a proper treatment of the kidneys. If you are feeling badly you can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy. It corrects inability to hold urine and scald~ ing pain in passing it, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its won- derful cures of the most distressing cases.
