An Iamawfl*UMrlM Fill I he Opera House at C«tu Baplda—The At' ttnicjr Owtral Dctlnn

IplrlM Addrtn.

CEDAR RAPIDS, la., Ju)y 1.—There fa bat one sentiment among the republican hosts that have gathered here today to attend the state conventien. That sentiment ie that some hard fighting is before them tor the next three months and that they moat fight to win. So effort, no labor, no ex pen®*, is to be spared to keep the Hawkeye state in tbe column of the goof old par„y. A week ago tbe democracy of Iowa threw down the gaontlet at OUutnwa declaring that the state was already theirj and even went so far as to prophesy that democratic success in November next would be bat a forerunner of the placing of Governor Boies upon the next national democratic^Jipkct JW the noniined lor the vice presidency. The republicans have taken up %h% challenge and propose to give the democracy of the state 8«eh a fight as they have never had before. Two years ago for the first tia»e in mora than a third of a centnry ihey lost tbe governorship. Ltst year they recovered some ground by electing the nominees on their state ticket although this was counterbalanced by the lose of several congressmen. This year they propose to capture everything in sight, i'he convention this year is the largest that has ever assembled in the state. The workers are out in force, old war horses who carriisd the republican banner to victory twenty-five yearn ago, and onng men iast initiated into their potical campaign. There is, morever, plenty of enthusiasm, and plenty of earnestness, and if the temper of tbe delegates is my criterion, it iiif going to be a rattling fight. And it will be made on but three issues: approval of tbe national republican adminstration, approval of the McKinley bill in its entirety and all that it implies, and last but not least, approval of the prohibitory liquor law.

There were more people in the opera house than it bad ever held before, when at half past ten o'clock the state convention was called to order by Hon. E gar E. Mack. Tbe 1,058 delegates whose credentials had been handed in occupied the seats in tbe parquet and the back: of the stage. The boxes were filled with matrons and maids, a fair and smiling galaxy of tbe beilcs of this beautiful city. In the balcony and tbe gallery were the representatives of the rank and file of the party all blunting witli enthusiasm and reiady to yell on the slightest provocation. With a few pleasant words Chairman Mack introduced as temporary chairman. Attorney General John Y.

chairman, Attorney Stone, of Glen wood, whose popularity was attested by the ovation which he received as he etepped to the footlights. His speech was characterized by a true Republican ring. He eulogised the national ailminisirationf dwelt upon the benefits which wouldiaccrue to the country by the enactment of the McKinley tariff bill, criticised the policy and performance# of tbo present, I)om6cratu! governor/and declared that fne Kepbblican party of Iowa will stand firm to its nravtone u/vf\rrl /vn ll«o ».l.iHvlou .jw». tioa. This latter declaration, which was regarded as in the nature of a challenge to a few Republicans mostly of thesecond district who haw put themselves on record as against tbe continued indorsement of prohibition measure*, was received with applause which tasted for come time. When the attorney general had concluded his speech, a committee were appointed on permanent organisation and platform and a recess was taken. When the convention reassembles this afterncon three candidates for the governorship will be placed in nomination. H. C. Wheeler, of Odtboll Ben F. Clayton, of Pottawattamie, and Daniel K*rr, of Gnindy Center. Wheeler is to be nominated on the first baUott. Ilo is a big firmer and cultivates six thousand acres of land aud was for many vears president of the state agricultural society. He was a candidate for the nomination two years ago. For the lieutenant-governorship J. H. Rum-

Snd:of

te, Marengo George Finn, of BedW. Mesfervy, of Cherokee, anil C. H. Povneer will be placed in nomination. Rumple is in the lead this morning but be has not enough voUs to get the nomination, on the first ballot, aud the chances fire that there will be a break to Poyneer, who is very much of a diplomat and is likely to get the nomination. There will be very much of a scramble for judge of the supreme court with tbe votes at the start split up all around, and Judge Blanchard, «f Oscaloosa has a very good show. 8c also baa 8. N, Weaver, of Hardin, a member of tbe legislature that set up the prohibition amendment, and who, although suffering with a broken leg, was carried into tbo ball of representative® on a stretcher in c«ier that he might vote against liquor. State Superintendent of Public Instruction H. Sabin, of Clinton, will be re-nominated by acclamation, and «o will Railroad Commissioner Frederick Campbell, of Jasper. The platform will eu'ogise the administration ot President IlarrtsoD. declare for high tariff, antagonise the Democratic pronuncitmento on the silver question and reiterate tbe plank of Uwt year declaring for ou%igpd out prohibition.

M!QUB O'BftlEN'S NIW QAQ, Tki Bright XJitlo t'rllls 6(TM Sanaa Tarra Haute Ls«il t* UM llsr,

Mlqus O'Brien, tbe whUome Ttrre Bautean gad sharp llUi* dramatic critic for the Cincinnati Timeft»$tar, writing to his paper from New York City, says:

Anew gag which ought to become popular has been started in New York. It was introduced by another Gagg— surnamei George Adolphos, of Terre Haute. It works very simply, gad its operation ia not attended with any danger, provided it be worked in a pleasant and artistic way with an accompaniment of apparent innocence and bland like smiles. Here is th» recipe: Sit yourself down to a table lo a chop house or otber public resort, mid presently proceed to let your voice oat in a sing song soit of a way. 'Oh,' is the word to use, and let your voice be half mournful and half gav, and let it scan tbe sule. It will require the united efforts of every waiter in .the boose to ascertain where tbe aoands come from, md when they do find oat they will farm a chorus, for the gag is infectious. If tbe person you wish to reach does not iax^eaiatelv respond, point your nngerair trtui anU increase t»s volume of yonr voice. A

Sroadway

wat deal of fun bra been created on this way. Mr. Gagg, by tbe by, is here in tbe interest of John fi. Hager, Indiana's gifted author, musician and wit As a result negotiations have begun which will re* suit in Mr. Hager's skit, 'A Swell Affair' being pat on tbe road with a strong company. It will very likely have a run in New York. Tboee who have seen *A Swell Affair,' and I happened to have been one of the lucky ones, pronounce it brighter and better than ninety per cent of the farce comedies that have been produced in the last few yeaH."

^ASSTRUSE PROBLEMS..

A Few Idea* On ear Beeaad Cenlary by An tlnemployed Statesman. ASHING TON, July 1.—For the first time since ha left public life Senator Ingalls appeared in public yesterday afternoon, making his debut as a leo turer upon the stage of the amphitheater of the National Chautauqua, at Glen Echo, near this city. His talk was ou the "Problems of Our Second Century" and he was listened to by a large audience. He paid his respects to those persons who want money to be as freo' as the leaves in the lorcst in the .autumn and who are so anxious to have congress pay their debts. He deprecated the state of affairs which made it possible tor 30,000 people to control one-half of all the accumulated wealth of the country, but he evidf nMy dfd not «w» lKM»r UUV. ..WM to be helped. He saitf that if all the wealth was divided so that each person received his per capita share, in six months some would be riding in palace cars and some in buggies some would be on foot and others would be sitting in the fence corners watching the procession go by. He said that no legislation in the world would ehange the destinies' \v4,Icli exist between men, and added that if some people were rich and oth«%»were poor the, fault lay with the

Creator. He took au optimistic view of erty, nnd said that out of the struggle would come broader oliberty, greater opportunities for happiness aud larger prophecies of the developments of this country. In the course of his lecture lie referred to himself as a statesman out of a job, a reraai which naturally caused great laughter. a

A WALL STREET WEDDING.

Tito Clroont Bern Hot Happen to Have at S3 Wot© on Him. Tbis morning Nathaniel C. Jones and Mattie J. Evans, both of Fontanet arrived in the city and betook themselves to the county clerk's office, where they laid claim to one of the bVanks on the marriage rccord and secured a license. Then they stepped across Wall street and tmtered tbe office of Squire Wildy, followed by the usual Wall street gang which is not allowed to take a tiimbie when a wedding is on foot. The bride in answer to the squire's queirtion,blnehingly replied that she was twenty-four vears old and bad been manried once before. The squire then pros ounced them man and wife by virtue of tbe authority vtfeted in him by law. He then shook haotls with them and congratulated them. "Why don't you kiaB tb#» bride? tbe other squire over here always does," broke in Tom Carper. "There might be danger in that sometimes" answered tbe squire.

Well that's a part of the ceremony, anyhow" contended Harper while the bride, who was suffused with blushes, looked at him in an appealing manner."

How much?" asked the $proom approaching the bar. "Haven't yon got af&5 notef 3he looks as

This was almost a death blow to the council, as this strong order would greatly strengthen the federation. This was accepted, however, by tbe council. Next in order was tbe rejection of the application of the Order of Rsilwsy Telegraphers and Station men and their notification that they must withdraw from the Brotherhood of Telegraphers before they could be granted permi&u )n. The ground for rejecting tba station men was that their number was not sufficient to grant them admission if

Tlis commiUae of liquor dealers who have been at work for some time past ia looking up those of their number who are sailing without the proper license for the purpose of prosecuting them to protect themselves and their own business, have prepared their lists showing what licenses each man hsg and tbe result of their work has been turned over to tbe

The committee reports that 209 saloon men have the government, state and city license 29 others have only the government license, having taken out neither the state or city licenses whi.'e thirteen have a United States and city license as yet unexpired, but have not renewed lh i'r state license.

ELECTRICITY ON THE RIVER. moral*

The

Janle Rae Brilliantly Illuminated last Night. It can be said that a Terre Haute steamboat has been made the first one to be illuminated by an independent electric lighting plant. The Janie Rae was long since wired for lighting and yesterday afternoon a fifty-light Kester dynamo, operated by a ten-horse power engine, was placed in position and adjusted. Last night forty incandescent and "two arc lamps shed a bright light, brilliant as the mid day sun through the boat and for some considerable distance around it. One of the arc lights is intended for a great head lamp that will illuminate the river from bank to bank for 150 yards ahead. The latest improvement' of the Rae makes her one ol the finest little excursion boats on this or any other western river. It gives additional evidence of the great enterprise of the owners.

Brazil's Propoaed Exhibit at tha World's Fair. WASHINGTON, July I. Capt. Alexander Rodgcrs, the special commissioner to Brazil in the interest of the Chicago exposition, says, in a recent communication, that he had just returned from a visit to the capitol of the state of Rio de Janeiro, at the city of Nictheroy. By appointment he called on and was presented to the governor, Senor Portella, who had expressed a great de-

Rodgers says he explained to him at length its objects^ and the plan and scope of the classification of the Latin-Amcrican department, and was pleased to see how fully the governor entered into the idea of making the Brazilian scctiom an* exhibition of the natural products of the country, instead of devoting- all their efforts to a display of its manufactures. They take great pride in the. latter, but the necessity of showing to the world the great undeveloped possibilities of Brazil were urged by the commissioner and made a deep impression upon the mind of the governor.

Crov. Portelte has appointed commissioners to tlie exposition with Dr. Getulio des Ncvcs as president of the board, he being Lieutenant-Governor of the state. The governor will also endeavor to get a large appropriation from the state legislature, and will accompany Capt. Rodgcrs in person to several points in his state on his return from Mines Geracs and Ban Paulo, the commissioners, however, going through the whole state with 1dm. The interest in the exposition among the Brazilians is daily growing and becoming more gen-

COIXRADO

The Pikes' Peak railway is now in successful operation. The first passenger train reached the summit at 5:25 yesterday afternoon. The train consisted of an engine and one car. occupied by sixty-five people, mostly excursionists from Denver The lower terminus of the line is 6,400 feet above sea level and the upper 14,147. The distance is 9 miles and the steepest grade is 35 per cent., or arise of one in four. There is a Rouble rack with a rail in the center. The track is standard guage, steel rails and 15-feet road bed. 6ys:. most thorough manner and'every precaution for the safety of the passengers Is used.

On the wdy up a slight snow squall was encountered, and on the summit the air was unpleasantly cool, even with heavy'overcoats. No incident occurred to mar the success jot the opening trip. On the return of the excursionists thay were furnished a complimentary supper by the managers ol the road.

The engine weighs forty tons. 1 operates by cogwheels alone, where being no adhesion on the drivers. The cogwheels, two in number, are placed directly Over the center of the track in such a position that they gain the advantage of the weight of the engine. The resxof the locomotive is elevated so that the boiler will be nearly level when on the heaviest grades. Two tanks on each side of the boiler carry the water supply, there being no tender, and sufficient coal for one round trip is carried in a coal box -in the rear of the cab. As the engine pushes the train up hill, instead of pulling, as in ordinary railroad trains, it has no use for a pilot or "cow catcher" and resembles in hardly any respect the ordinary locomotive. The passenger coaches do not differ materially from the ordinary Pullman coach, but are constructed so that pasiengers may sit comfortably in a horizontal position when the car is on an incline. This is the most novel as well as "the highest railroad in the world,

WATERS FLOWING AWAY-

Fnrlher Portlonlara of tho Great Missouri Flood*. KANSAS CITY,Mo.,June 30.—The flood in the Missouri river reached its highest stage at 4 o'clock, when it registered 2« feet and 2 inches above low-water mark.

A-special from Atchfiion, Kan., says: "The house of Pleasant Little, on Dooiphan point, went Into the :riv®r with its contents yesterday afternoon. The house was occupied by John pfcQueen and hia family. Little was boarding with them. They had vacated the house a few hours before it fell, taking refuge on main land. Little escaped with McQueen's family, but has not been seen since, and it is feared that he returned to \he bouse and was lost with it,""

Between Rashville and the river not less than twenty-five farm houses are surrounded by water, and farmers are out in boats trying to rescue shocks of wheat that nre yet above water.

A St, Joseph (Ma) special says: The river te stationary at this point, standing 19 feet 8 inches above low-water mark, the same as at noon yesterday. The water has overflowed the low lands about take Contrary and that body of water Is now apart of the great flood.

A Lsrfe Tolaraoof Diplomatle Correspondence. WASHINGTON, July 1.—The diplomatic correspondence for 1§90, which will probably be published within the next fortnight, will make a volume of nearly 800 pages of unusual interest. In tha forthcoming volume a great deal of space is devoted to the correspondence relatin to the Behrisig sea controversy, much if which has already been made public. It is here brought together iu regularordcii, with all the papers In the cas?. Much space is also devoted to the question of the exclusion of American cattle, swim and m«at products from the European markets and the correspondence shown that the arguments and facts adduced by the diplomatic representations of th« United States have produced a strong impression which will probably result in a complete removal of the injurious strict ion* which have" been enforced against this country. Another important feature of the 'report is that which relates to the multifarious questions con* Hantly arising in regard to American citizenship and the rights and privileges of native born as well as naturalized citizens of the United States who reside ill foreign countries.
