WASHINGTON , April 29.-Two notable
speeches by Senators Teller and Sherman ,
represent ng opposing elements on the finan-
ctat question , were heard In the senate today.
Mr. Teller addressed himself particularly ma
the Ohio senator , controverting the vlevv3
held by him and matntalning that no honest
effort had been made hr the present congress
to pass a tariff hill. The climax of Mr. Tel.
ler's speech was reached when ho uuuouncrd
that tie would vote an he spoke and that ho
would not hcaltato to xeparale himself from
the party It It pronounced for tire gold atuhd
ard.
ard.Mr. . Sherman answered Mr , Tellerarguing
against a 50-cent allver dollar and announcing -
nouncing that the tune had come for a decl-
alve upinlon from the people , lie appealed
the case , he said , to the tribunal of the
Amerlcau people at the coming election.
Thr early part of the day was given to
speeches eulogizing I'ore Marquette , Mr.
I'almer democrat of Ilhnoh , presented a ro-
solutlou expressing the thanks of congress to
the stab of Wtsconsin , vhlch had presented
a statue of Marquette to the aeuate , and accepting -
cepting the gift. The reaolutiot w as adopted
without division.
Consiileratlon of the naval bill w'as then
resumed , the question being the item of bat-
tleslr'ns.
Dir. Toiler seas recngn'zed for same general
remarks on thu lhranclal issues Involved , de-
votthg himseit in particular to anewertng Mr.
Sherman's remarks yesterday. Ho declared
that the castigation of the senate by tha senator -
ator front Olio for declining to Pass a revenue
enue law was unwarranted. The Dlngley bill
was not presented with any purpose of passing -
ing it. lie saki that If a eincero effort had
been made to raise revenue it could have
boon avoided the conflict created by the
Dlngley bill. It tax on beer and numerous
other mothole o1 raising revenue would have
accotupllehel the end without precipitating
the Issue of protection , but certain p , ople
feared It night shatter tbo prospects of
some preaidential candidate.
Referring to ture hoarding of vast scans
In the treasury , Mr. Teller said ! f there
cans a country of the globe ruled by ! m-
beclles. It was tide. He did not. propose , he
aald , to let the Olio ecnator ( Sherman ) fool
the people by telling them that If the Mc-
Icinley hill was reenacted it would bring
prosperity. The McKinley bill would never
bo reenacted , said Mr. Te11er , and If It
was , it would not bring prosperity. Mr.
Teller paid a glowing tribute to the repub-
11can I + arty and its achiovernents , but , lie
added , it looked as though the great party
had reached the poem where it would drop
the interest of the masses and become the
duiw and agent of those who have no sympathy -
pathy With the masses , of those who repro-
aent only the dollars.
Tim senator rejected the imputation of
the senator from Vermont ( Merrill ) as to
the republlcanisrn of those who voted against
taking up the tariff bill ,
" exclaimed Mr. Teller
" 1 am a republican" ,
with 'great feeling. 'I helped to create the
republican party. I was a member of that
party before the senator from Vermont
was , and I carne into It voluntarily. The
senator from Vermont must allowme to go
out in the same way. lie cannot fix my line
of conduct any more than a democrat or a
republican convention can command my con-
1ldenc
The senator sold that when the great parties -
ties formed in battle array next summer one
of them might be the chaiplon of the white
metal. He contested that ho looked with
fear and trembling on the course of the
great party with which ho had been allied
for forty yeara.
" \'hat will I do if the party to which I
Lave been attached advocates the gold standard -
ard ; ' proceeded Mr. Teller.
"Mr. I'eesldent , , I have no doubt in saying
here , as I have before and will say- again ,
that when a political organization ceases to
" . . + represent the sentiments I hold , turn I cease
to art with it. When the democratic party
became the party of opposttlon and wickedness -
ness I got out of it. I should despise myself
If I lifted my Band to put hio power a man
who from executive chanihera would continue
the gold standard. holding these views , if
I lift my voice and do not vote in the same
wa ) ' , I Would despise myself for hypocrisy
and deceit , and so as I speak so I will vote , "
There was a noticeable stir hr the galleries -
ies when Mr. Teller cloaed , which was quickly
checked.
Mr. Sherman followed , answering Mr. Tel-
ier , lbo raid he respected the honesty and
Intoune enrnestnees of the Colorado senator.
What had been said was not new. The Colo-
? ado renator believed in the free colnago of
silver--meaning n dollar worth 50 cmts as
the salvation of the country. Mr. Sherman
said there should ho no blind fad presented
to the peWPlo. lie hhneodf believed in the
largest poulblo use of silver constant with
the maintenance of a gold standard , As to
the references to the McKinley bill , Mr.
Shornami said there hind bow differences as
to It. It Was amended and changed In the
senate until It should Properly be know nag
the SlclInleyAlllson Aldrich bill.
"It was weakened by the reciprocity clause ,
to uty judgment ; said Mr , Sherman , "and
the reciprocity agreements under it ended in
i loss cf ravenuc. " Mr. Sherman proceeded to
show that the McKinley act would have furnished -
nished a revenue had not Tito elections
brought about expectations of a change of
tariff policy. If he tvcro In limo place of
i'resldeut Cleveland ho Would not pay $1
beyond receipts in salaries. Such pnymiients ,
beyond receipts , were not mandatory and Mr.
Shormmii hoped the secretary of the treasury -
ury would not make them. Mr. Sherman said
the time hail eomiio for a final soltlemott of
the silver question by the people ,
Mr. Teller again addressed tlto senate , con-
tlo erting aoliro of Me Shertltan'a 1)oints of

ing that the Sherman silver Purchase law
was a contproniso to obtain the { massage of

it proceeded it became evident that Mr. Taut-
nor had not overestimated his following.
When the last county was called and the
chairman had au opportpnity to mmounce
the rest , Mr , ldantllon moved to make Tan-
ner's nomination unanimous. This was
quickly followed by seconds from Colonel
Bryan , John Ialy and a delegate from Kane

ATLANTA , Ga. , April 29.-The republican
state convention summoned to assemble in
the house of representatives at the slate
capitol at 10 o'clock this morning was not
called to order until 11 o'clock. The delay
was cause ] by a row over admission tickets
to the hall. A. E , Buck , chairman of the
state cornndttee , took a position at the door
and admitted only those having tickets
signed by himself. A party of Reed delegates -
gates , who were unprovldod whin tickets ,
gathered at the door and forced their way
to with shouts of triumph. Then followed
a scene of stormy confusion which was only
calmed by the appearance of a squad of
pollcemen.
At 11 o'clock Chairman Buck called the
coevention to order.
There was no appointment of a committee
on credentials , but the secretary read the
list of delegates , as agreed upon by the
state executive committee. This done , a surprise -
priso was sprung by W. A , Pledger , leader
of time Reed forces , rising and nominating
A. E. Buck , the chief McKinley supporter ,
as temporary chairman. Pledger explained
that ho did lhia as a prelimhmary to a
peaceful convention. Ile and Colonel Buck ,
he explained , had got together and concluded
that lhero was soutetbing higher than factional -
tional triumph. Colonel Duck was thereupon -
upon chosen chairman by acclamation.
Four delegates-at-large were placed in
nomination : A , E. Buck , II. L. Johnson , H.
A , Rucker and J , A. Deveaux. Time negroes
wanted R. R. Wright as one of time dele-
gates-at-large , and they shouted and waved
their arms and raved wildly as they pushed
toward the speaker's stand. The police were
called and cleared the speaker's stand , The
tumult continued , and as soon' as the bluecoats -
coats disappeared , the mob surged again
about the chair , and Wright again mounted
the stand. Chairman Johnson caught him
by the leg and tried to pull him down. IIe
was about to fall , and threw his head back
to steady himself. It caught in line chair-
man's cellar. Ten or ntoro black hands simot
omit front It front of the stand and pulled
Wright to his feet , rand he resumes huts
speech , while the chairman tried to flee
hkusclf The stand was partially cleared
again , and the chair received a motion to
elect the four delegates named , put the
motion and declared it carried. Ito then left
time stand.
Suddenly a portly mar forced an opening
between the negroes , snatched time gavel , and
1n a very excited manner called the convention -
vention to order , and in Lime mulct of to }
din nominated Itev. K , Love for chmairrnan
of a new convention , Love was declared
elected , and howled out a speech , heard
only by those within six feet of him , It
was decided to call the roll , for the purpose
of electing Wright iii place of Johnson , A
list of counties was obtained , amid a man
started with It to the stand , when lie was
attacked by one of Pledger's followers , artd
after a splrlted fight time roll was stuffed bto
time pocket of ! 'ledger's man , slid he die.
appeared In time crowd. No other list of
time counlleo could be found , so a conmittee
was appolnted , ono from each congressional
district , to nominate four delegates from
the state at large. Another conunillee was
appolimtod to report a platformi , and then
time delegates , who had howled thenmsolvea

JACKSON , Miss. , April 29.-Tiro demo-
cratle state convention was called to order
at 10:30 : by Chairman Wllliamron of the
slate executive committee , Ex-Congressman
H. L. Muldrow of Oknlbbeha was chosen
temporary ehairnan amid lion. L. Pink Smith
secretary ,
In addressing time convention , Chairman
Muldrow declared there ehould be n uncertainty -
tainty as to the declaralhons of the party.
Mlssissippl Was the rightful leader o1 the
democratic party of the natlon. No state
had a better right to urge Its principles be-
tare tire convention at Chicago. It should
declare today for a tariff for revenue only
and for free coinage of silver.
Ilonderson Doxey of Carroll county was
then selected as assistant chairman and the
temporary organization was made perna-
aomit.
The first squabble arose as to whether or
not a new executive commnlllee should ie
named. The point raised was that the last
committee was selected for four years and
lho opposttlon held that each convention
elects a new executive committee.
Amt excited howl was raised for a call of
time counties , but was ruled down by the
clmalrman , A rebolution was then Introduced
to allow the delegates from the respective
congressional dlstrcto : to retire and name
delegates to the national convention and was
mnended so as to alloy the naming of a new
executive conmittec. A motion to table the
amendment was voted down and a resolu-
tlomi passed.
Tl'o dlscnssiomt was heated and became so
confused that it was impossible to distinguish
the speakers. Antld terrible confusion time
speaker counted the standing vote on the
propeeitton to table the motion to emmdorse
the present executive committee for three
years longer declaring the result to be In
favor of tabling the motion.
It was then moved and adopted that the
chair appoint two delegates from each die-
trlct and four froth the state at largo as a
comntttee on resolutions. The chair appointed -
pointed time commnlltoe , the following mom-
bore for the state at large : 11 , D , Money ,

Today they sold the same to a man from
eastern Iowa for $35 an acre , thus netting
$3G00 , A Flandreau man durbmg the past
