There is a strong disposition to let New York name the second man. New York should get the nomination as a compensation for the "cursing out" she got at the hands of the anti-Bryan men for her failure to lead the revolt against Bryan. They say that had New York took the lead against Bryan he could not be nominated. One man, high in the councils of the anti-Bryan element declared bitterly, when asked his opinion of the situation, "Bryan will be nominated by a convention in which not a third of the delegates want him and it is all the fault of New York." New York Not Spoken Yet. This sentiment was Indorsed by several others of the party. New Y'ork, by the way has not yet declared herself. She will do that as to both president and vice-president at the caucus this afternoon. That the declaration will be for Bryan and probably for Harrison is the general opinion. The time is past when even New York would have any chance of leading a successful movement against Bryan's nomination, if there ever was any chance. .FLAYS ROOSEVELT IN SPEECH.

He bitterly denounced the Chicago convention of last month and declared that llDosevelt had shanked the party.

The republican party has made progress on promises to the people and much greater progress in aiding selfish interests and special privileges. That party, guided by expediency and campaign necessity, would camp this year on democratic ground. "It has been made evident in the pending campaign that republican:; will seek to conjure with the name of Roosevelt and will rely upon the president's policies as a prized asset. The president has advertised himself and his policies with a frequency and ability that surpasses the best efforts of the shrewdest press asent. Accuses Roosevelt. "The nomination of his would-be successor was largely accomplished by the use of political patronage and coarse machine methods and has delighted the chief apostle of strenuosity and at the same time has not perturbed the conscience of the one-time civilservice reformer. Now the boss, he is an adept in the bestowal of public plunder. No fair-minded American could read the daily accounts of the recent political doings at Chicago without feeling mortification and regret; mortification that the president should have so abused his power in dictating to a great party his choice of a successor, and regret that that party should have submitted so cowardly to a humiliation that was as manifest as it was degrading. "To recall the democratic platform speech and measures is to convince any many that many of the president's public utterances were derived from an avowed familiarity with the teachings of our party. His utterances that are democratic have given him his only claim to be a reformer, and have contributee more than all else to the popularity he has enjoyed. Stand on Anti-lnjunctiion. "There has been and is now a public demand for regulating and not abolishing, the process of injunction and the power to punish for alleged indirect or constructive contempts of court. Ever 6ince 18fK. the democratic party has protested against hasty and ill-considered use of injunctions, and has been insisting on the right of fair trial in all cases of constructive contempt. Discusses the Tariff. "The president and his party declare that a pre-election revision of the tariff would be unwise. This assertion has been repeated in advance of every election since the enactment of the Dingley law, and surely the country will not again be deceived by republican promises to revise the tariff after the election. Their appeal to the people is this: Give us another chance to make you a promise and the promise will be made." CITY STATISTICS. Deaths and Funerals.

WRECK OF THE BIRKENHEAD. The Way This British, Vessel Went Down Off the Cape of Good Hope. Most of the Crew Were Loet and All the Women and Children Saved. Visitors to the hospital of the old pensioners at Chelsea will perhaps have aotlced in the colonnade a simple memorial tablet, placed there by order of '.he late Queen Victoria to record the Heroic constancy and discipline of the jfScers and soldiers who lost their lives In the wreck of the transport Birtenhead off the Cape of Good Hope on Feb. 20. 1S32. On Jan. 7 In that year, aftr embarking re-enforcements amounting to fifteen officers and 476 men for the troops engaged in the Kaffir war, the Birkenhead left Ireland for the :ape. On board were also 166 women and children, the wives and families 5f soldiers. All went well till the transport reached Simon's Town, where ten officers and eighteen men were landed. The ship continued her course on the evening of Feb. 25. But the :aptain in his anxiety for a quick passage unfortunately kept bo close to the Bhore that during the night the ship got among the rocks which line the L-oast About three miles off Danger point at 2 o'clock In the morning of the 26th, while all except those on watch were sleeping peacefully In their hammocks, the ship struck with a violent shock. The bulk of the men on board were young soldiers. The rush of water on the Birkenhead striking was so great that most of the soldiers on the lower troop deck were drowned in their hammocks. The remainder, with all the officers, appeared on deck, maay only partly dressed, and fell in as orderly and as quietly as on the barrack square. Calling the officers round him. Lieutenant Colonel Seton of the Seventy-fourth highlanders. the senior officer on board, impressed on them the necessity for preserving order and- silence among the men, The services of the next senior. Captaiu Wright, Ninrty-flrst highlanders. were placed at tbo disposal of the commander of the ship to carry out whatever orders he mig'Ct consider essential. Sixty men were put on the chain pumps on the lower after deck and told off in three reliefs. Sixty more were put on to the tackles of the paddle box boats, and the remainder were brought on to the poop to ease the fore pnrt of the ship, as she was rolling heavily. The commander next ordered the officers' chargers to be pitched out of the gangway. The plunging nnd terrified horses were got up and cast over, five of them managing to swim ashore. The cutter was then got ready for the women and children, who had been collected under the poop awning, and they were passed In one by one. There being room in the boat for one or two more, the order was given for any trumpeter or bugler boys to be taken. A young drummer standing near was told by an officer to get into the boat. but. drawing himself up, exclaimed that he drew man's pay and would stick by his comrades. The cutter then shored off In charge of one of the ship's officers, and the women and children were safe. No sooner was she clear than the entire bow of the vessel broke off at the foremast the bowsprit going up in the air toward the foretopmast. The funnel also went over the side, carrying away the starboard paddle box and boat and crushing the men on the taciles. The paddle box boat capsized on being lowered, and the large boat in the center of the 6h!p could not be got up. The men were then ordered on to the' poop, where they stood calmly awaiting their fate. Within a few minutes t be vessel broke In two, crossJmt ahfft thazl! roem. aad

Caroline, daughter of Joseph and Martha Boyd Lewis was born near Williamsburg, Indiana, March 22, 1827, and passed to her rest July 2, 1908, having reached the age of. eighty-one years, three months and ten days. She was married in 1S50 to Henry tee steTn oean rapidly to fill. Li tt! extremity the commander called out. "Those who can swim Jump overboard and make for the boats T but the officers begged the soldiers not to, as the boat with the women and children would be swamped. They were young men in the prime of life, with all before the-;i, yet no one moved, nor did any sign of terror or fear escape them. Lower and lower sank the vessel Into the deadly sea. The old transport shivered, gave a final plunge and disappeared, carrying with her the band of heroes on deck and those working below at the pumps. Men of all ages and ranks they were the colonel and the drummer boy, officers of gentle birth and men from the workshop, the plow and the mine, but all animated with the same heroic resolution, fortitude and chivalry as cool as though they had been on their" parade ground, with as much courage aa In action in the field. A few managed to cling to the rigging of the mainmast, part of which remained out of water, while others got hold of floating pieces of wood and were eventually rescued, but of fourteen officers and 43S men no fewer than nine officers and 349 men perished, many falling prey to the attacks of the sharks, which surrounded the ship in shoals, waiting for their victims. Every woman and child was saved. Perhaps the greatest compliment ever paid to the memory of the brave was the order of the king of Prussia for the account of the wreck of the Birkenhead to be read on three successive parades at the head of every regiment In his army, and it was spoken of In every school In Prussia and Germany.

Upon motion of the state the case of adultery charged against Julius McCowan and Margaret Baker, was dismissed in city court today. The evidence against the two was presented by Chatfield Baker, a son of the woman. The prosecutor refused to place any confidence in the boy's story, after he had repudiated it. He alleged McCowan had been cohabiting with his mother. McCowan assaulted the boy a few days ago, and the latter told his story to the police. His mother sided with McCowan and young Baker was stranded for substantiation of his tale. CIVIC LEAGUE TO MEET.

A CLERK'S BLUNDER. Its Effect Upon the Fortunes of Our Revolutionary War. The element of chance as exemplified in the blunder of a copyist bad an important bearing on the result of our war for independence. As is well known, the crisis of the military between Great Britain and the revolting colonies was reached when General Burgoyne's campaign was planned In London. The object was to strike a tremendous blow at the center of the Revolution. The British forces were to take possession of the Mohawk and Hudson valleys by a concentric march from Lake Champlain, Oswego ar ' New York on converging lines toward Albany. The ascent of the Hudson by Sir William Howe's army was essential to the success of a scheme by which New England was to be cut off as by a wedge from the southern colonies. Orders were sent out from London for the advance of Burgoyne's and St Leger's forces from Canada. At first Sir William Howe was merely Informed of the plan and was armed with discretionary powers, but finally a dispatch was drnfted positively ordering him to co-o..-iate in the movement from New York. A British clerk made a hasty and very careless copy of the dispatch, which the minister. Lord George Germalne. found great difficulty in reading. He angrily reprimanded the cul prit and ordered a fresh copy to be made without flaw or erasure. Being pressed for time and anxious for a holiday. Lord George posted off to the country without waiting for the fresh copy. The military order was laboriously copied In the clerk's best hand, but when it was finished the minister was not there to sign it. It was pigeon holed and overlooked when he returned and was not sent to America nntll long afterward. Howe, being left with full discretion, allowed himself to be drawn into military operations against Washington's army near Philadelphia. Burgoyne's army was entrapped, cut off from retreat and forced to surrender at Saratoga. Thus the fortunes of the Revolutionary war turned upon the carelessness of a British clerk. Chicago RecordHerald. The Hog Nosed Viper. The hog nosed viper is found in southern New Mexico and Arizona, sometimes wandering as far north as Gallup and Lamy. It Is, however, not common anywhere In the American southwest, although in parts of old Mexico it is a terrible scourge. It is about as ugly a creature as one can well imagine, taking its name from Its turned up nose that strangely caricatures a hog's snout Over its eyes are two horns like scales, somewhat similar to a chauffeur's goggles. It rarely attains a length of more than eighteen inches. It hides in the sand, which Is exactly the same color as its body, so that one is likely to provoke it to wrath by treading upon it without noticing it. Many sheep herders have been fatally bitten by it The fangs of this ugly creature are precisely similar to those of the rattler and Us venom fully as deadly. Chicago Inter Ocean. Sarh a Waste!

The following; Interesting statement of the prices that were paid for food during the stegs of 1870 la taken Ttf bally out of the journal of a Frencfi officer stationed In Paris at the timet "Toward the middle of October wt had to make tip our mind to sacrifice, the animals of ths soological garden The elephants and many other beasti were bought by &. Dados, the ownei of the English meat shop In Ar. Friendland. The meat of the elephantl was sold from $10 to $12 a kilogram (two pounds), the trunk commandlni the highest price, $18 a kilogram. Th trunk snd feet were both declared delicious by all gormands. In the same shop a pair of young wolves were sold for $2.50 per pound. The meat wai soft and without taste. The biggest pries was paid for a young lire lamb that had been swiped by a franctlrsni from the enemy. One hundred dollars was paid for It "Here is an exact price list of soms victuals toward the end of ths siege: Two pounds of borMfleata tS.H One ham UN A whole cat , I N A rabbit 1M One turkey.....

"Moreover, everybody had to submit to the strictest orders. People stood In file before the butcher and baker shops to wait for their turns. Each household was furnished with a card from the municipality authorizing the bearer to buy a certain amount of meat and bread. The cook, the housewife, the young girl, the little child (men never go shopping In France), were posted for hours before the shops In rain and snow, with wet feet shivering with cold. The unfortunate ones endured without a murmur these hardships. Women throughout the time of the siege were setting an example of courage and self abnegation not always followed by men. "It was a sad and touching spectacle, these long files of women, nearly all dressed In black, grouped before the doors of the dealers, watched by the national guard, with whom they at first were laughing and chatting, till the sufferings from the cold had silenced the laugh and sometimes brought forth the tears. "But in spite of all precautions the stores one by one were exhausted, the provisions, put la too late before the elege, were used up, and. bile the babies, deprived of milk, died In great cumbers or, fed on sweet wine and bread, pined slowly away, the big people tried to find new resources to prolong their Uvea."
