The endorsement of Colonel Quay was opposed by Senator William Flynn of Pittsburg, tho loader of the anti-Quay re publicans In the last legislature. Flynn stated that he was In sympathy with the platform In everything except this plank and moved that It bo etrlcken out. His motion was defeated and the platform was adopted as reported from the- committee. After Senator Penroso had read the nlat- form nnd moved Its adoption, Senator Flynn was recognized.

CLAY CKNTRR, Kan., April 25. Kansas populists In state convention here today elected eighty-four delegates to the na tional convention nt' Slod'xS. Falls .and in structed them to vote solidly for nryan. The delegates then adjourned and proceeded to tho depot to greet Sir, Hryan, who came In from tho Wichita banquet on a special train. Flvo thousand pcoplo escorted tho Nebraskan to tho city square and cheered him heartily as he spoke on the issues of tho day. In tho convention during tho vcte on del egates George Eastcrwood of Kansas City said ho had heard that democrats would spend $10,000,000 In tho Kansas City con vention to beat Bryan. Judgo'Pfost asked what the Kansas delegates should do If thero should bo a movo to adjourn tho Sioux Falla convention until after the Kansas City nomination to seo who the democrats would nominate. W. F. Jones favored nominating Samuel M. Jones of Ohio for vice president. Ho thought with Toledo's mayor on the ticket Ohio and Michigan would bo lost to the re publicans. "Nomlnato Uryan and Jones," he said, "and your campaign Is over." Tho proposition to endorse Jones for the second place on tho ticket was making rapid prog ress when Albert Griffin declared that Jones, was not eligible because he Is not a native- -born citlien of tho United States, nnd this ended tho talk In that direction. "If you adjourn to Kansas City," Orlfflu continued, "you will do nothing but what tho democratic bosses tell you to do. The populUt party Is In danger. If you be come a tall to tho demo:ratlc kite this ycir tho populist party Is gons forever." Colonel J. J. Donaldson of Cbanute ad vised the convention to tell Its delegates to go to Hloiix Falls und adjourn the con vention to Kansas City, "then," said ho, "let them do the best they can, and may God help them." WICHITA. Kau., April 25. Allen O. Myora of Ohio, responding to a toast at the banquet of the Sunflower league ot Kansas, following W. J. Bryan, created a aenaatton by his utterances.

The houso to. day put its heel upon the pneutaatlc mall tube service now In operation In New York, Roston and Philadelphia, and If its action stands, tho whole service will bo crushed out. Tho postofllce committee had recom mended an Increase of tho appropriation for this service. Tho proposed Increase was attacked by the appropriation committee under the leadership of Moody of Matsachu sctls with such vigor and success that In the end tho house voted, 87 to 6u, to strike the entlro appropriation from tho bill. Moody created a sensation by the- manner In which he assailed Uie methods of the !'"cuma!!c ' c ,and ,lho cnarge tnnt former member of congress who was ft member of tho appropriations f01"110' bad bccn a bol(,er of alock aad oonus in too company. Ho declined to disclose the gentleman's name. He added lo tho scandal bv chare- Ing that a block of tho stock had been sent ns a New Yenr's gift to a near relative of another member of congrem, but to the credit of tho member, he eald, tho dishonor ing gift hnd been returned to the sender by the next mall. Although the tube service was highly com mended by other members, these revelations transformed tho sentiment ot the house, which has several times voted for the tubo service, into a decisive majority against Us continuation In any form. Tawney of Minnesota offered as an amend, ment a bill to reclassify railway mall clerks, but It went out on a point or order. IlnU n .tllltlon Increase Wnnteil, Tho item appropriating $725,000 for pneu matic tubo service, nn Increase of $500,000 oyer the appropriation for the current year, was the subject of two hours' debate under tho arrangement previously made. Little of Arkansas opposed the pneumatic tube service, which he held was unneces sary aad ot no material benefit in expedit ing the malls. Tho charges for the service In New York, ho said, wero outrageously exorbitant, Th government was paying $37,000 a mllo rcntnl for six-Inch Iron pipe besides the ccst of operating tho machines. Using this item as a text, Moody made an urgent plea for retrenchment in public ex penditures. Kvery branch of the public service, he said, was asking for Its share ot the enormous rovenues which were being collected. Proceeding, Moody assailed the whole nistory or tho pneumatic tubo rervlce. "It Is so malodorous from beginning to end." said he, "that it should die the death of a dog." "Smoke the rascals out," cried Little, "and we on this sldo of the house will stay with you." Makes dinners Aanlnst Tfrllson Moody said It was not a pleasant thing for Jjlm to exploit tho scandal which had been uncovered by the postal commission of which ho was a member, but he considered it his duty to do so. Ho declared that forener Second Assistant Postmaster General Nellson, under whom the first experiments In tho pneumatic, tubo service were made, when , ha .retired, accepted from tho company fi.vvy u ca5u anu uuo n siOflK jor UM. C.J." could not Imagine. These facts, he said, had been brought out by the commission. John E. MUlholland of New York, ho said, was tho president of tho tube company. Moody's next statement startled tho houss and created a sensation; Tho tube sorvlcc, ho said,- had been constructed by contrncto-s who tcok their pay In stock and - bonds. The only asset of the company wns Its con tract with' tho government. "I regret to say," continued Moody de liberately, "that ono of the principal holders of these stocks and bonds was a member rf this house and a member cf tho committee on appropriations." "Givo his name,'' shouted Livingston of Georgia. htoeU for roiiRrensninn'n rtelntlvr. "I will not," replied Moody. Then he added another sensational statement to the effect that a large block ot the stock had been sent to a near relative of a prominent njember of rho house as a Npw Year's gift. "But I am proud to say," said Moody, "that tho return mall carrlod back that dlchonorlng and dishonorable gift."

The minority of tho members of the senate committee on privileges and elections, cons'stlng of Senators Pottua and Harris, who do not ac cept all tho views of the majority of tho committee In tho case cf Senator Clark of Montana, today presented their dissenting opinion In the case. The report begins with this ptatement: "We agreed and aro still agreed to the resolution adopted by the committee Itself. But tho report Is merely the writing of tho chairman with tho aid of one other mem ber nnd never was submitted to any meeting of tho committee nnd thercfofo cannot be considered as the words qf the committee." They then proceed to state their roasona for dls?nt, which are based, they say, upon . . .... . 1 . 1 HAMmf.tAA AA ni( ... -lho Drulnory rllc8 cf evidence, but hearsay evidence In great volumes. They state their reasons for consenting to the statement In the majority report that the friends cf Senator Clark "Illegally and Improperly used large amounts of money and thereby caused the election und. that this election lo not valid, hut under the law of tho land Is void." They tbe-n enter upon a review of the present conditions In Montana. Referring to the lnltlatlvo meeting of tho Clark men nnd tho attendance of A. J. Campbell, ni this -conference and his later oleotion to congrces, Pettus and Harris remark: "So, to tho extent named Mr. Campbell got the benefit of that private meeting, of which ho was a momber. and tho benefit of the money sent out by tho committee to tho executive committees In various countlen Mr. Campbell waa a well known opponent of thi 'Daly faction prior to and In 1808.' " Taking up cx-Stato Senator Whlttsldn they say: "The eividenco tends to show that White side was unfriendly to Mr. W. A. Clark and that he made a threat to 'explode n bomb" if Clark becamo a candidate for the senate, and that about the same day Marcus Daly In New York made a threat to run W. A. Clark nnd hla family out of Mon tana," They pronounce the testimony connecting tho Montana supreme court with the cauo as irralevant nnd say: "This transaction occurred, so far an wo are Informed, six or seven months after the senatorial eleutio'i. No fact proved connects Mr. Clark with any part of that transaction. Dr. Tracy had no sort of connection, directly or In Judges In tho fall of thnt year. All tlio evidence wss nothing more than what may be called 'coloring matter.' And It was admitted against the protest of the senator from Maryland and others and In the con duct of this caso much other mere 'color ing matter' was received as evidence."
