Clarke, Cleveland. - OLUMBUS, Ohio, Aug. 26.—The Johnson programme was . carried out completely at the Democratic State Convention to-day. After the opposition had obstructed the procecdings with minority reports for some hours the name of John L. Zimmer- man of Springfield was not presented for the gubernatorial nomination, and then every nomination on the State ticket was made by acclamation without opposition. fter the chair announced that the name of Tom L. Johnson was the only one before the convention for Governor there were some dissenting Zimmerman votes on the motion to make the nomina- tion unanimous, but the Zimmerman men quit after the selections for Governor and Senator were made. Still the opposition Ly various obstructive movements kept the convention in continuous session for about seven hours. While minority reports were present@t from the committee, the only fight that worrfed the Johnson managers was on the Senatorship. The only ballots forced on the dominant elgment were in that con- test. The minority report on rules and order of business, which was intended to, omit the indorsement of a Senatorial can-| didate, was defeated by a vote of 211 yeas to 446 nays, and that was considered a test vote between Johnson and Zimmer- man after all the contested seats had been decided in favor of the former. LENTZ ACCUSES JOHNSON. On naming the man for Senator the Johnson men were divided among them. selves. Mayor Johnson and ex-Congress- m Lentz have been very close, person- ally and politically, for years, but a most bitter feeling existed between them to-day, at least on the part of Lentz, who openly accused Johnson of favoring for Senator & man who had voted against The Zimmerman men had intend- ting for Clarke, the Johnson candi- date for Senator, as they sald he repre- sented their conservative views, but when Lentz opened a fight on Johnson on the al candidate the Zimmeérman men their obstructive tactics and Even resumed voted for Lentz for Senator, thus driving the Johnson men to the second ballot. After the first ballot, which resulted, 11 and Russell 14, the Johnson men made a terrific effort on the floor of the conven- tion to name Clarke on the second ballot. The vote for Saltzgaber represented the uitra-silver men, who were the most ar- dent supporters of Johnson, but who said they would support no man who had voted gainst Bryan. M.-E. Ingalls of Cinein- nati had been indorsed the Hamilton Cagnty delegation for Senator and was the choice of the Zimmerman men, but Ingalls and the unseated Hamilton Coun- ty delegates, although in the city, did not attend the convention. CLEVELAND CONSPICUOUS. John H. Clarke, who will canvass the State with Mayor Johnson and other Democratic candidates, hag been a prom- inent attorney at Youngstown for many years, but he is now located in Cleveland, which city has four prominent candidates, the Republican as well as the Democratic candidates for Senator and Governor. Next to the commanding presence of or Johnson was the part of Clarke in convention. He made two masterly speeches, one presenting the name of Johnson and the other in accepting the Senatorial nomination. After the conven- tion many delegates said his first speech nominated Clarke as well as Johnson. In his second speech Clarke Intimated that he would ask Senator Hanna for joint de- bates during the campaign, and that caused a great demonstration. Ex-Representative Frank B. Niles, the running mate of Johnson for Lieutenant Governor, is also sald to be a speaker who will contribute largely to the discus- sion of pending issues. With the single exception of the Sena- torial indorsement the Johnson men con- trolled the convention to-day as firmly as the district and committee meetings yestérday. The convention was as dis- tinetly with Bryan on National as with Johnson on State issues. The speeches of both Temporary Chairman Saltzgaber and Permanent Chairman J. H. Goeke insist- ed that if the Democratic party is to | change its policy to suit the times the change must be made by the friends of | the party, and not by its enemies. The result of the convention leaves the party organization 18 to 3 in the hands of the Bryan-Johnson element for next | year's convention, when delegates to the Democratic National Convention are to | be selected. —————— PULITZER'S SON ARRESTED | BY STATE GAME WARDEN | Must Travel 600 Miles in Montana { for a Hearing of the { Charge. | HELENA, Mont., Aug. 26.—Ralph Pulit- | zer, son of Joseph Pulitzer of the New York World, was arrested this afternoon by State Game Warden Scott on a charge of violating the game law in Teton Coun- ty last June.

PARIS, Aug. 26.—The report of the French experts appointed to cenfer with the United States Monetary Exchange | Commissioners has been delivered to Em- | bassador Porter. It contains a note from Foreign Minister Delcasse, saying Farnce is net prepared to express binding con- culsions until she has consulted with the powers. The report indorses the principle of a gold standard for China and other silver-using countries, but it points out that the plan is positive only under judi- clous control of the coinage by the gov- érnment and the creation of an adequate gold reserve. It favors a coinage ratio for the Orient, fixing the face value of silver slightly above its bulllon value, similar to the American system in the Philippines. The French Commission makes reseérvations upon the proposed regular purchases of silver, on the ground that it is impossible to foresee the coun- try's need for subsidiary and colonial coinage. Semi-officfal advices from Rus- sia indicate that the commission appoint- ed by Finance Minister Witte has made a similar conculsion. The French and Russians considered it preferable to establish a uniform systém in China by beginning on a siiver bads and afterward raising it to a fixed gold value, than to begin on a gold standard immediately. —_———— TROOPS MUST REMAIN WITH AUSTRIAN COLORS Farmers Will Suffer Because of the Diet’s Failure to Provide Recruits.
