The delegates were at no time yesterday or to-day wearied by long speeches. The talks ere brief, pointed and patriotic. The John F. Davis of Amador in seconding the nomination of U. S. Grant for elector at large inspired en- thusiasm. George A. Knight, national commit- teeman from California, was greeted with cordial enthusiasm and his speech of acknowledgment was cheered. — The Re- w remarks of | Frank P. Flint and Henry T. Oxnard, | candidates for the United States Sen- ate, did not address the convention, but they lost nothing in point of pres- tige by reason of their silence, for George A. Knight made no reference whatever to the Senatorial campaign in his remarks. Comment is made by delegates and spectators belonging to the Republican party that Mr. Oxnard was placed in an unfortunate position yesterday by the blunders of his political managers. It is remarked that one of his three managers, Walter Bacon of Los Angeles, should be absolved from all blame for the unfortunate incident, as he took no part in the proceedings to place the candidate for United States Senator in the contest for Presidential elector to represent the Eighth District.

SAN RAFAEL, Aug. 2%.—Dan Kelly and .F. 'W. Montague, two desperate convicts, escaped from San Quentin prison this afternoon, and up tJ a late hour to-night no trace of them had been found. The two escapes had been employed for the last few months in driving the garbage wagons from the prison to the hog ranch, a quarter of a mile distant. | Montague left the prison about 1 p. m. to-day with a load of garbage and arrived at his destination fifteen min- | utes later. Kelly did not make a trip and was supposed to be working with one of the prison gangs. The two men were in the habit of spending about an hour at the ranch, and the guard evi dently paid little attention to Mon- tague's absence. A few hours later the guard discovered the garbage wagon at the ranch and Montague missing. | The officials at the prison were noti- | fied ¢f the escape and all available guards were detailed to scour the hills. The San Francisco police and Sheriff | Taylor of Marin County were notified | and the Sausalito ferry-boats watched. | A p. m., lock-up time, Kelly, Mon- s pal, was found missing and the officials had to send more men out to notify the first squad of his escape. Montague was serving ten years for robbery, committed in Shasta County, and had four more years to serve. Kelly was from Placer County and | was serving five years for burglary. He had hut nine months more to serve. —_———— Will Search for the Smolensk.
