STIRRED UP A ROW.
Dispute Over the Seating of Delegation at St. Louis.
THE BIG INDUSTRIAL CONFERENCE.
A Georgia Contest
CAUHAA
Lively Scene
-CoL Polk Mado ChairmanOther Hasinas* of tho Session.
MANY FACTIONS REPRESENTED. ST. LOUIS, Feb. 24. Temporary Chairman Cannon opened the second day's session of the Industrial convention at 10 a. m. The report of the credentials committee recommended seating 264 delegates from the Farmers' Alliance, 53 F. M. 15. A., 82 Knights of Labor, 97 National Farmers' Alliance, 25 National- Citizens' Alliance, 97 Colored F. M. B. A.. 27 National Citizens' Independent Alliance, 75 Patrons of Industry, 25 Patrons of Husbandry total, 677. The Farmers' Alliance was given 25 delogates-at-large, and thirteen minor detached organizations and individuals wero given a representation of 58. The contest from Georgia was left with the committee to be further wrestled with. 1'eruianent Organization.
The permanent organization was headed by Col. L. L. Polk, who was selected for permanent chairman after a lengthy wrangle. As vice presidents Frances Willard and Ben Terrell were unanimously chosen, and the energetic little woman from Evanston was literally carried upon the platform and given a right royal reception when she got there. She told them that she was a farmer's daughter, that her right hand had earned her keep since she was 15, and then laid down her old familiar platform of the protection of the home against the saloon, no north, no south no sex in politics. Her references to women suffrage and prohibition were rather coldly received.
A Colored Man Honored*
•John W. llayes was elected permanent secretary, and Warwick, of Virginia, a delegate from the Colored Men's Alliance, was elected assistant secretary,, although when the question was put a good many of the Georgia and Alabama delegates voted "No." denounced Livingston*
Ihe third-party fight in dead earnest ao suddenly thrown into the convention by the report of the committee on credentials seating Post and Branch, the two third-party delegates from Georgia whom it was sought to shut out Post, in the bitterest speech heard in the convention, denounced Congressman Livingston, of Georgia, as attempting to hand over the alliance in that state, bound hand and foot, to the democratic party. After the exchange of personalities and extraordinary confusion, participated in by Moses, of Georgia, Ellington, Branch and others, the report of the credentials committee was fully adopted by a "arge majority, a substantial triumph for the third-partyitcs. The row among the Georgians continued fiercely, however, and was only ended by the sergeant-at-arms, club in hand, forcibly jamming the warring southerners down in their seats.
Could Cool Oir in Aluslcu.
When quiet had been measurably restored the long list of the members of the platform committee was finally completed and read, making a total of nearly 150 members. The announcement of Post as the platform committeeman from Georgia nearly started a personal encounter be tween him and Moses, a fellow Geor gian. The convention as a whole was now thoroughly disgusted with the Georgians and plainly showed it with hisses and cat-calls. Jerry Simpson turned the whole dispute to ridicule bv suggesting that half the Georgia delegates be apportioned to Alaska to give them a chance to cool off. Secretary Hayes brought out sighs of relief by announcing that the Georgians had at last settled their fight, 'ost being made platform represent ative from Georgia and Woodson, an anti-third-party man, the Georgia member of the anti-option committee.
Sub-Troasury Snowed ITmlcr.
Willetts, of Kansas, national lecturer of the Farmers' Alliance,
moved
that the convention demand the passsage of the sub-treasury bill is a means of relief for the people instead of petitioning the asliinjjton solunsto enact the proposed anti-option law. Wheat, lecturer of the Knights of Labor, moved to lay Willetts''motion on the table, and on a vote the treasury substitute was snowed under.
A Permanent Census lSurr'iu.
Mr. Kelly (Kan.), undaunted by the fate of Y\ illetts, offered a resolution that the appropriation pending in congress for a permanent census bureau be indorsed if provision were made for continuing the investigation of farm mortgages as a permanent part of the work of the lAireau. Jerry Simpson warmly championed Kelly's motion, and Simpson's efforts were heartily seconded by Congressman Livingston (Ga.).
Livingston Wants Harmony.
Livingston seized the opportunity while upon his feet to repel the accusation that he ever wrote or uttered one word favoring
turning
the Georgia
alliance into the democratic camp. He invoked, for the sake of the destitute people they all represented, that bickerings be dropped and there be union and harmony. Livingston's reply to the charges against him were v. -ll received apd he v.-as accorded generous applause from all parts of the hous\ between Livingston and Sunpawn pulling together the convent on. ff-r some desultory discussion, adopted the census 'resolution by an emphatic-vote, the only resolution to be .adopted by the convention without previous reference to the platform committee.Mivi'r 'or tiao l'ir« uorari.
A discussion of l'ree coinage wasnow pitched umong the. delegates by Wilson, of Georgia, offering a resolution that the convention petition congress er the adoption of tho pendmg bill for
the free and unlimited coinage of silver. Congressman Livingston fought hard to have this resolution carried.
Tracy, of Oregon, tacked on an amendment demanding the passage of the sub-treasury bill. Thunderous protests against the consideration of resolutions outside of the platform committee were voiced by Willetts, of Kansas.
Waite, of Colorado, declared the silver men wanted no one-horse resolutions—they wauted a silver plank where it belonged, in the convention platform. He was taken at his word and the free-silver resolution was put on the table.
For nearly an hour after supper time the convention waited to hear from its mammoth committee on resolutions, but at last adjourned until to-day.
RIDDLED WITH
Another Victim
BULLETS. Law lu
of Mob kAngus.
PI.VE BLUFF, Ark., Feb. 24.—George E. Harris, a negro prisoner in the jail, was riddled with bullets Monday night by a mob at Varner, the county seat of Lincoln county. Shortly before midnight a crowd of armed men entered the sleeping room of Jailer H. B. Rogers and demanded the keys. Rogers refused to deliver them, but was overpowered and when the mob secured possession of the keys a rush was made for the jail and Harris' cell was quickly located. The negro had heard the noise, however, and placed a billet of wood in lock in such a manner that the bolt could not be turned. Seeing the door could not be forced open, one of the leaders of the mob deliberately placed the muzzle of his revolver through the bars, and pulled the trigger. In a minute a score of guns joined in and the negro fell to the floor, fatally injured, the blood streaming from a dozen wounds. Having thus accomplished its work, the mob quickly dispersed. Harris' crime was the murder of E. T. Parker, a sewing-ma-chine man.
THE CHILDREN WERE DEAD.

MCKEESPORT, Pa., Feb. 24.—When Fireman Lynch responded with his company to an alarm Monday night he found that it was his own house that was burning. He knew that his two small children -were alone in the building, and he rushed in to save them. A cry for help soon after he entered brought his comrades to his assistance, when he was found prostrated on the floor with his children clasped in his arms. All three were carried out and then it was found that both of the children were dead, while Lynch himself was unconscious and can hardly live.

Why
So Anxiously Concerned
The prestige of the Royal Baking Powder and its constant success are matters of anxious concern to envious competitors.
It is noted that advertisements of other baking powders are filled with spleen, malice and misrepresentation against the Royal, more than with honest claims as to their own goods.
That the Royal Baking Powder makes finer, whiter, sweeter, more wholesome cookery, the ladies who have tried other kinds are willing to testify and tell their neighbors this fact is a serious concern to all competitors.
The superb quality of the Royal Baking Powder, over and above all other kinds, is never so manifest as when tried in comparison. It has greater strength and does not deteriorate with age, the last spoonful in the can being as good as the first. All over this country the "Royal" has the lead this is why makers of other brands, envious of its sale and popularity, talk so much about it.

IxniANAroi.is, Ind., Feb. 23. The second day of the street railroad strike passed without a car being moved in the city. It looks like the fight will be along and bitter one. The company made three attempts to move cars Monday, but each effort was successfully resisted by the strikers, who forcibly took possession oi the cars and run them back into the barns. President Frenzel sent a second communication to the mayor demanding police protection in the running of cars. In answer to this request the mayor again stated that hewould not allow the police to move the cars. Until the company can obtain the protection askeo it is powerless to do anything.
