IzT weeks at a time away from the railroad CAd coins from one raining camp to another by mule or In a coach. In this way b got accaialnted with the whole population, and to-day: It la said he owns -the Plate. HcUa good speaker and has made himself felt in tne United States Senate. Ilobert P. Porter, ex-Census Commissioner, editor of the Cleveland World and tariff writer, arrived here thl3 afternoon, lie returned from Japan two days ago, having: gone there to write up the new industrial movement from a protectivetarift standpoint. He is one of the best authorities on his side of the tariff question, and he tells me that his views have not been changed by his Asiatic travel? and Is surprised at the Industrial growth .Koing on among the Japanese. He is in favor of a reciprocity treated between Japan and this country. Said he: "I want reciprocity vvith Japan. I want to see the trade avened up. We sell her only J0.000,(XX) worth of American "goods, while out of what she sells to us she gets $34,000,000 every year. The Japanese chink the dollars as they take them to see whether they are good and say they like us, but what we want Is to have them buy more goods. They are now going to subsidize a steamship line, which la to run between Japan and the United States. This line will have about ten steamers, and the ships will go from Philadelphia, New York and from Portland. Ore., to Japan. The ships are to be of from six to seven thousand tons, and the building of them will be a very profitable Job. I talked with the Japanese contractors the other day and asked them where they expected to get their ships. They replied they thought they would have them built In England, and I asked them If they pretended such great friendship for us why they did not have them built in the United States. They, said they could get the work done moreche aply in England. I thereupon asked them t they would have the ships built here If I could get the work done more cheaply in Engthe same price, telling them that I had no Interest financially in the yards. They replied that they would. I have seen the hip builders, and they say they can make them for as low a price as the English can, and there is a possibility that they may get the job. I give this to enow you how the tariff has helped ship building In the United States." ( "I suppose that you arc a silver man, now that you have been to Asia?" said I. No' replied Mr. Porter, "I am more for sound money than ever. I took $2,000 worth of greenbacks and silver certificates with me to Japan. The notes were of all kinds and denominations. When I arrived I . turned them into Japanese silver money at the lions Kong and Shanghai Bank, in Yokohama, and they gave me $3, SCO for my 12.000. They made no difference between the silver certificates and the gold notes; It was all the same. Any kind of United States money Is as good a3 gold anywhere." . - Dr. T. X. Flood, the editor and proprietor of the Chautuaqua Magazine, is one of the delegates at large from Pennsylvania. lie . tells me that when he was approached by Quay's friends to accept this position prior to the meeting of the convention that he told them he was for Quay as long as there seemed to be a chance cf the convention ' nominating him, but If there was no chance he expected to go to McKlnley. He was a strong friend of McKInley's, and did not care to be a delegate unless he could have his freedom. He says Quay was perfectly satisfied with this arrangement, and he thinks Quay Is thoroughly In sympathy with McKlnley. "The Senator." said Mr. Flood, "lii a much misunderstood man. He Is not a bulldozer nor an obstinate man in any way. It 13 true that he has a great deal of determination, and that he usually accomplishes his ends. He does this, how-. ' everr.by the force of reason and persuasion, rather than by bulldozing. I have reason to believe that he is thoroughly in accord with Hanna and the McKlnley men, And at the same time he is doing all he can to harmonize matters with the New York men." Doctor Flood is right in Quay being the chief harmonizer. He is moving about from delegation to delegation, saying nothing to the newspapers, but, getting in his work on the leaders. I am tbld that Tom Piatt wes very angry when Quay first appeared. He thought Quay had been rather treacherous in going out of the "favorite son combine" scheme, but Quay soon made it all right. It is hard to understand Quay's strength. He has a wonderful hold on not only Pennsylvania, but on leading men in different parts of the country. He does not seem to be magnetic. He seldom makes a speech, you never see him about the hotels and still he seems to have the whole State of Pennsylvania in his hand and to be able to throw It this way er that as he pleases. Quay has been Interested In politics for more than thirty years. He was In the Pennsylvania legislature awty back in the sixties and he was for some time a great friend of A. G. Curtln. Later on he wortted with Cameron, being hand In glove with - Senator Simon Cameron and then with Don. Of late he has bee a running the machine alone. lie Is getting deeper into politics than ever, and has become more and more wrapped up in It- He now spends a great deal of time In thinking over political matters, and has. as it were, moods of political thought when you can't get anything out of him. Mrs. Quay referred to this. In speaking to- a friend the other day. Said she: "I wish Matt was out of politics. He Is getting In so deep that It Is decidedly uncomfortable to talk with him at times. "Why. k I will be riding, down town with him on ' one of the street cars, and ask him a question about some family matter.- He will answer yes or no, but In such a way that I know his mind Is. far off." On the way. out here from Pennsylvania Quay had hte special car, and It was on the same train as a car in which Addicks, of Delaware, was traveling. Addicks called In several times to talk with Quay. Quay let him talk, and It was plain to Addicks after a time that Quay was not listening, and Dick Quay, the Senator's son. had to rouse , him up again and again In order that he might treat Addicks decently. I am told that this was with no desire to be anything but respectful to Addicks. but that his mind was so loaded with the various political situations which he Is trying to rranage that he can't get away from them. As an evidence of Quay's great

strength with his friends, the number oM lithographs and pictures which are hung up of him in St. Louis stands out in evi- ' dence. You see Quay pictures everywhere; a full-length oil painting of him with electric lights of blue and gold above it. stands In a magnificent frame in one of the big parlors of the Planters' Hotel. Posters as big as a barn door bearing his face are tacked up on the walls of the Southern, and I really believe that the Quay buttons which are now scattered about St. Louis would fill a faur-bushel bag. The oldest delegate to thl3 convention is CoL Itlchard W. Thompson, of Indiana. Every ono has heard of Dick Thompson. He was In Congress long before Abraham Lincoln, and his first political campaign was that of 1SC2. when he supported Henry Clay In his contest with Andrew Jackson. He served In Congress with Lincoln in 1S47, and was Secretary of the Navy during the presidency of Hayes. Colonel Thompson is now eighty-seven years of ae, and" he Is in as good intellectual condition as he has ever been. He tells me his memory has not failed at all. and though his hair is white his eye is bright and his voice Is strong. During my chat with Colonel Thompson I usked If he had ever had any ambition to be President. He said he had nztijthat he had refused more offices than

he bad accepted, and that he liked private life better than public life. I asked him whether he thought the great men of this convention and of the present time would size up well with the great men whom he had known In the past. He replied: "In some respects, yes; In others, no. Clay, Webster and Calhoun stood high above any others of their time, but the general averago of Intelligence and of statesmanship is higher than it was then. I don't think we have statesmen to-day who are equal to those men. but we have many who approach them in some ways, and who are superior to them in others." "What do you think will be the result of the convention?" I asked. "The nomination of McKlnley in the first place," was the reply, "and in the second, his election, on a sound-monef platform. I believe that this campaign will be but the beginning of a long era of Republican government, which will outlast my lifetime, and which may outlast that of the present generation." General Charles Grosvenor Is still figuring. He has it now fixed that McKlnley will get CO votes on the first ballot Grosvenor seems to be pretty happy In the position which lie has as the statistician of the McKlnley forces. He is the proudest man of all the proud McKlnley men at the Southern Hotel, and his face fairly beams as he sits on the sofas of the Southern with a crowd about him-and basks in the sunshine of hU own notoriety. Grosvenor has perhaps given out more statements regarding McKlnley during the last month than any other man. The most of It has been done gratis and for the love of the thing, but at a meeting of the Ohio Congressmen in Washington a week or so ago John Sherman told a story which shows that Grosevnor has not been entirely unrewarded. Said Sherman: "It is wonderful bow much the newspapers are paying for the opinions of public men nowadays. I received a request the other day for a statement as to the political situation. I was very busy and I asked General Grosvenor to write It for me, knowing that he was better posted than I was. He did so and I sent it off. In a few days later I received a check for $150. This was very good pay, but I couldn't keep all, and so I gave 75 of it to Generst Grosvenor." At this General Grosvenor blushed. The rest of the McKlnley men present laughed, and Sherman Innocently turned the conversation to other matters. FRANK G. CARPENTER. TRIDt'TC TO HARRISON.

MaJ. William Warner, of Mlssocrl, l'ralnca the Ex-I'realdent. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. ST. LOUIS, June 13. One of the striking figures in the hotel lobbies Is that of MaJ. William Warner, the idol of Missouri Republicans, a man who was elected a delegate at large after he withdrew his candidacy on account of tho Injection of Apalsm Into the contest. " His majority, after a remarkable speech in which he said he obeyed the dictates of no secret society, was between 1W and 2X). Major Warner is so popular that he was supported by the Kansas City Star, the great independent afternoon pafler of Missouri, both In his race for Congress and the gubernatorial honor. This morning Major .Warner was the center of a group at the Planters' Hotel and what he had to say on national questions was listened to with close attention by the people around him, a number of whom were Missourlans. Some one remarked that Benjamin Harrison, of Indiana, would live long In history. "Live long In history?" said Major Warner. "When the history of this country comes to be written, no administration cf the affairs of this government will stand higher than that of little Ben Harrison, of Indiana. The four years of his administration will go down into history as a model fot the Presidents, of the Republic, even to the latest generations. Benjamin Harrison to-day, intellectually and as an American. Is the greatest citizen of the Republic. When I say he Is the greatest citizen of the Republic I mean Intellectually and Imbued with the true spirit of Amerlea,nism. As President he never consulted expediency. The only rule of his action was Justice, right and the spirit of American patriotism. "If Ben Harrison were President of the United States," and the Missouri man waxed warmer, "conservative as he is, the down-trodden people of the United States would have found in him a friend. Ben Harrison In private life to-day, Intellectually and politically. Is tho biggest man In the United States." One of the group about Major Warner asked what would be the effect were Genoral Harrison a candidate before the present convention. "If Harrison were a candidate for the presidency," answered Major "Warner, "his nomination woula restore confidence to all sections of our country, and as a Republican I believe that tho nomination of McKlnley, which Is now assured, will be a guarantee to the voters of this country that a policy wiu be adopted which will give protection . to American labor. American products and American fabrics, and give us In the United States treasury a surplus instead of a deficit." 'There seems no chance of the convention nominating Harrison this week," was suggested to Major Warner. "I believe," he replied, "that when General Harrison said he was not a candidate for the presidency, knowing him as the people do, he meant what he said. I took hlni at his word. He is not a man given to playing to the galleries. He Is a man of convictions and given to saying Just what he means. Tlarrlson to-day Is acknowledged the greatest lawyer In the United States. I believe he U anxious for the quietude of private life, and in the practice of his profession, without the annoyance of politics, he can make more money than as President of the United States. In this I, and his friends, can challenge a comparison with any other exPresident of the United States. I might further say that Mr. Harrison, were he President of the United States for a second term, or even for a third term, could never expect to excel his record as President. Therefore, as far as honor or emoluments ara concerned, there Is nothing to Induce him to become President of the Republic, the greatest honor In the world. This can be said of General Harrison; he never made a promise that he didn't carry out to the letter." p L. P. WARMER AND FAIR. Prediction nnd Observations of the Local Went her Ilurenn.

BEN TILLMAN'S LfiTEST

CLAIMS HARBISON BOUGHT HIS WAY IXTO THE WHITE IIOVSC. Severe Storm Over Central Indiana, with Fatal Results, and Fires from Lightning: Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CONNERSVILLE. Ind.. June 15. The immense crowd expected here to-day to hear Benjamin Tillman, advertised as the "greatest exponent of free silver In America," failed to materialize. The heavens shed tears of sorrow all afternoon, ana only about three hundred people were present to hear his speech, in which he blamed the Itfpublicans for everything, but failed to show what good the Democratic party had done. He said the country's debt had been S2.600.OCO.000. but was compelled to confess that over $2,000,000,000 had been paid by Republican administrations. He invited questions, some of which he could not answer. He took occasion to hit the present administration, claiming Cleveland was more of a Republican than a Democrat, and that he and ex-President Harrison bought their way to the presidential chair. The reason the present incumbent was successful at the last national election, he said, was because he "out-Harrisoned Harrison." Senator Tillman impressed the audience that he believed the Democratic party had gone to pieces, and was trying to rally the people under a silver standard, with free trade in the background.1 From the expressions of those who heard him the speech was a failure, as he introduced no new arguments, and for two hours merely rehashed what has already been said and printed. IIOX. D. P. DALDAVIN FOR GOLD. Will Support McKlnler Itatber than a Free-Silver Platform. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. DELPHI, Ind., June 15. A free-silver picnic has been advertised at Rockfield, eight miles east of this city, for next Saturday. Large bills have been pasted all over tho qpunty and a great effort is being made to get out a crowd. Among those who are advertised to speak are Hon. Anson Wolcott, of White county, who Is largely Interested in silver mines in Colorado, and Hon. D. P. Baldwin, of Logansport. The matter was called to Jude Baldwin's attention by a cltizea of this ctty last Saturday, and Judge Baldwin stated It was the Brst Information he had that he was to be one of the orators. In a letter to the editor of the Journal, of this city. Judge Baldwin says: "I shall support no free-coinage man or party. If the Democrats make a freecoinage platform at Chicago, as now seems likely, I shall support McKlnley and sound money. As between high tariff and sound money on the one hand and free silver and the present tarifT on the other hand. I prefer to take my chances with the former." Judge Baldwin has lost no time In combating the arguments of the free-silver people, and he states in his letter that but for the fact that he will leave Wednesday for New York to be away one month, he would attend the Rocktteld meeting, as he has been advertised, and give the people there assembled his opinion of the proposition to visit on this country the free and unlimited coinage of silver. Can County Prohls Split. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. LOGANSPORT, Ind., June 13. The Prohibitionists of Cass county held a convention at the courthouse Saturday to select candidates for county ounces. There were Just twenty representatives of the party present, out of a total of 300. The convention had not been in session ten minutes before there was trouble. Twelve of the twenty tried to force a free-sliver plank Into the platform. The remaining eight resisted, and so successfully that the minority forced tho majority to retire. After the silverites or nationalists had been kicked from the hall the "go! bugs" proceeded to nominate candidates. Much trouble was experienced in securing candidates who were known to be ''true blue" on the money question, and the convention adjourned without filling all of the offices. The nominee for county clerk wished to withdraw his name, alleging that he had pledged himself to one of the old party candidates. He was told that he might vote for the other fellow, who is the probable Democratic nominee, and the compliment could be returned by his friend. The sl verites. after being kicked out. did not at tempt to organize. They will go to the ropullsts. Hrovrn County Nominations. Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

Hole in Grant County Flowed 1,200 Barrels, Then Gave Oat. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. . MONTPELIER. Ind., June 13. The Grant county end of the great Indiana oil field Is full of surprises. The last one which was sprung on the public was the gusher of Bettman, Watson & Bernhelmer on the Gldecn-Klrkpatrlck farm, In Section 22, Van Buren township. The well cut loose at twenty-two feet In the sand. This was the third venture on this farm, and as the others had been very light producers, preperatlons had "not been made for any such dlplay cf gushing ability, and dam-builders had to be soon called In to save the 60-cent fluid from going to waste. The driller pulled his stop-watch at 7:30 a. m., and from then until 11 p. m. It never made a break. At the eleventh hour, however, it suddenly stopped, after flowing 1.200 barrels of oil, and Is now giving brine. This Is the second gusher of the kind that this firm has truck in this field, the other being drilled In March and being somewhat smaller. The Montpeller portion of the field has not developed anything of a sensational nature recently, nor has there been an extension of much Importance. A southern lead was civen the field by the Rev. father McMahons well on his land, about six miles south of town. In Section 30, Harrison township. Blackford county, a few weeks ago. Ills second well has just been completed and shows up much better than No. 1, flowing 400 barrels of oil the first day. This may lcadto the widening of the territory in that direction. The Northern Indiana Oil Company has completed a well on the Chaney farm, in Section 9, Bear Creek township. Jay county, that can be considered a test well. It did 153 barrels of oil the first day, and on the following day produced forty-five barrels. The Elcho Oil Company has completed a gasser on the Hughes farm, in Section 7, Harrison township. Blackford county. Bettman, Watson & Bernhelmer's No. 1 on the Burmore farm, in Section. 18. Van Buren township. Grant county, is good for fifteen barrels; same firm's No. 2. Crawford farm.

Landis farm. Section 17, same township, ten barrels; same company's No. 1. Maddox farm, section 17, eighty barrels; same company's No. 7, Huff farm, same section, twenty .barrels; same company's No. 1, Lee -farm, Section 8, same township, nfty barrels; rso. 1, Bradford farm.

Sworn Chemist in Bud rest. their owners' long and loyal support of the many teams which have represented Indianapolis.: Thoe faithful followers of the fortunes of the team would never let a chance go by to set them play a same. The "bleachers" had a big representation. In fact, the theater was well filled on all floors, despite the stormy afternoon. Not that rain here will ever Interfere with th reproduction of a game at Detroit or elsewhere, but the idea Is yet so new here that people have not become accustomed to it. Yesterday It 'unfortunately happened to rain at Detroit, and the game was postponed, to the sorrow of the large crowd In the theater. Money was refunded or rain checks given, as the people elected. Beforo letting them go, however, Mr. ' Chapman gave them an exhibition of. tho workings of his mtniature ball field with Its automatons. This delighted them immensely, .nd when McCarthy bobbed lip at bat through tho trap, at tho jilate thira was a. chorus of "Tuni him Hround. lie's left-handed." Roat was called ujon for a homo run, and there was all sorts of fun during the exhibition. The spectatn understood the system at once, and applauded the cleverness and effectiveness. The entire stage of the theater Is set to represent a ball field, gently Moping up from the footlights, so as to aKorU a perfect view. There Is a fence around It. and the illumination Is line. The players art represented by figures about three feet high, stationed In their proper places. Tha batter hits the ball and runs to rtrst base, every detail of the fielding being shown with exactness.: If the hall U caught tho play Is reproduced by the miniature player on the mimic dianumd. If the fielder muffs the ball the spectator sees him make the error. The direction in which the bail goes Is shown, and every spectator knows at once whether It Is foul cr fair. A bunt Is shown, and a grounder Is made as apEarent as a fly ball The catcher moves up ehlnd the plate on two strikes, the runners slide to base in fact, the figure s seem almost human as they run. catch and bat the ball. Each figure in the field holds an electric globe. The white light, when flashed. Indicates, the ball In play, the red light Is an error and the green light a fouU A fumble is shown by a flickering white light in the hands of the fielder making the error. To-day's game between the champions and Detroit will be, .probably, as hot a contest as ha.s been witnessed this season. The Detroit men are smarting under their Grand Haplds defeats and the loss of first place, and now that they are back on their own grounds, will put up a lively fight, aided by the great crowd of "razzle-dazzle rooters" up there. They were probably glad to rest yesterday before tackling the champions, who are feeling like winners. Flfleld and Monroe will be the opposing Eitchers to-day. and, as the games up at etroit are called nearly an hour earlier than those here, the crowd at the Grand would better be on hand by 3:13. to start away w ith the first Inning. Score cards are given to everybody attending. To-morrow will be ladles' day, just as at the ball park, and ladies accompanied by gentlemen will be admitted free to the game. Movement of Steamers.
