WASHINGTON , June 30. As a reault of
the rapid work on the larlff bill today , Iho
clrco of Ihe long dcbnlc In Die senate nnd
the final vole on the bill Is felt to be very
tuar at hand , two of the meet Importanl
provisions , those relating to the Hawaiian
treaty of reciprocity and the duty on coal ,
were perfected today , while another source
of much conflict , the reciprocity section.
was matured by the finance committee and
pescntcd to the ( senate. Aside from these
argcr Items , a great many minor ones , which
ave caiibcd more or less conflict , were
Isposed of. The Hawaiian provision of Ihe
louse bill was restored , afler n brief de-
bale , and without the formality of a vole.
his has the effecl of leaving the Hawaiian
reaty of reciprocity In full force and
ffcct.
During the day Mr. Turple of Indiana
poke In support of the amendment for a
" pe.r cent tax on Inheritances. His speech
vas notable for Its picturesque mctaphora
mil Ihe virulence of his denuncla-
lon of the pending bill. Mr. Tur-
) le spoke of the statements frequently
nailo as to the stralta of the United States
rccsury , its Insolvency and bankruptcy.
> uch statements were unwarranted and
ended only to shake public confidence.
Today there was a large surplus In the tren-
iry. the last official statement showing $135 ,
000,000 available cash balance. In tarcas-
Ic tones Mr. Turple declared thai the tariff
jill wes the Joint product of two parties
one the party that had come Into power
ast November ; the other the pa'ty In olllce.
One was a mercenary organization , Iho olhcr
political , and both hael entered Into a com
pact for a tariff bill. Neither branch had
any anxiety as to the treasury , the amount
of deficit , except ns It served polit
ical cnila. Hawaii must wait , Cuba muot
wait , pensions must wait , every Interest
of legislation must wait while these two
parties , executed their plans.
BECOMES BITTER.
Mr. Turple bitterly arraigned the bill , payIng -
Ing no measure had been presented "making
so largo and unprovoked a spoliation of the
world's commerce. " There was "compound
larceny" in nearly every schedule. One-third
of the bill was a declaration of war agalnat
France , Germany and the continent of Eu
rope. We had hopefully looked toward the
trade of South America , but this bill made
It almost a penal offentjo to carry on trade
with the southern republics.
Mr. Turpio denounced the protective sys
tem In bitter terms. Iris unique figures of
speech attracting much attention.
Referring to the enormous bounty to go
to the wool manufacturers , ho declared it was
not for the Interest ot the sheep , but for
the wolf In sheep's clothing. wlv > would strip
from the babe In Its cradle the articles en-
scntlal to Its use. We had developed In
this country a new breed of animals. "They
are the tariff swlno , " exclaimed Mr. Turpio ,
"tho high protective tariff swine. They are
voracious feeders , with fierce appctltca and
a regard only for the Infant Industry of bris
tles. "
Mr. Turple closed with a reference to sli
ver , saying there was no more right to aban
don the cause of sliver than to abandon the
free coinage of gold.
HAWAIIAN PROVISO.
The Hawaiian treaty provisions wore then
taken up , Mr. Allison stating that It had
been determined to retain the house proviso
vise to paragraph 206 relating lo sugar as
follows :
Provided , That nothing herein contained
shall be so construed as to abrogate or In
any manner Impale or affect the provision ?
of the treaty of commercial reciprocity oon-
e'udod between the UnltOil States and the
klnjof the Hawaiian IMands , January : :0 :
1S7.1 or the provisions of any act of cmi-
Krefs heretofore passed for the execution of
the same.
Mr. Allison briefly explained that In view
of the tu-aty of annexation which had been
made It seemed best to retain the house
povlslon , leaving the reciprocity treaty In
stntu quo.
Mr. White of California raid that If the
treaty was tr be abrogated it was desirable tc
give- the notice contemplated by the treaty
Ho had Intended to urged that such notice
be given , yet If we were to embirk on the
project of niriexlng a country having liO ! (
Americans , 3,000 full blood Hawallans. S,00 (
half bloods. 24,000 Japanese , 21,000 Chinese
15,000 Portuguese , 1,400 Germans , then there
would bo no need of such notice. The pro
posal to concur in the house provlston was
then agreed to without the formality of a
vote.
Coal was taken up , Mr. Allison sub
milting changes making the duties on. hi
luminous coal and all coal containing lest
than 92 per cent of fixed carbon and shale , 2'
cents per ton of twenty-eight bushels
eighty pounds to the bushel , coal slack , ni
culm , such cs will pass through a half lne-1
rurecn. 13 cents per ton ; coke. 20 per com
ad valorem. The senate proviso was omltti ? *
relating to certain reciprocal trade In coal
Mr. Allen denounced the duty on coal , de
clarlng that It served tn enrich the eoa
barons and not to ameliorate the conilltloi
of the others.

COLf.MHUS , O. , June 30. The democratic
state convention hero today was one of the
most memoable ! political assemblages In the
history of Ohio. It was a convention ot
unanimity on principles and of differences
on men , especially on those who were can
didates for places on the Btato ticket. It
was a free silver convention throughout
Every -candidate whose name was presented
was announced a ? orthodox on silver and the
silver doctrine was the cardinal principle for
his favorable consideration , Whllo there
were some differences of opinion about adopt
ing the anti-trust and the Cuban resolu
tions , there was not a dissenting voice in the
convention to the free and unlimited coin
age of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 without
the co-operation of any other nation , and the
name of Bryan was mentioned in some way
by every speaker as the only sure way of
bringing out u chorua of applause.
While there was no place on the state
ticket accorded to cither the silver repub-
HcaiiH or to the populists , yet representa
tives of both those elements co-operated in
the convention and an Informal fusion was
perfected. Out of the 050 votes cast for su
preme Judge there were 322 for John J.
Harper , a.silver republican. H. T. Hough ,
the favorite for governor , was slaughtered
because ot the opposition of the rural dis
tricts to the McU'an man using the largo
delegations from Cincinnati , Cleveland , To
ledo and other cities to dictate the head ot
the ticket. Those running next were Chap
man , Welly and Sorg. Welly's name was not
presented after his friends learned that Chap
man had been agreed upon as the compromise-
candidate. Hough's name was withdrawn
before the balloting began and the name ot
Sorg was withdrawn before the result of the
flist ballot was announced.
M'LEAN'S TACTICS.
Although the McLean men had been In
conference during the night and the morning
and had agreed to go to Chapman , they
scattered their vote on the first ballot and
did not concentrate on Chapman on thclr'sec-
end ballot more than was necessary to nomi
nate , so as to dissipate , an much us possible ,
the report that McLean was naming the state
ticket. H Is conceded that the McLean men
had an understanding with Chapman and his
managers before the convention convened
and the vote of the strong McLean counties
fof Chapman bears out the repor. . In addi
tion , to the state ticket nominated them Is
an' implied orrangeni6nt'"for-John n.Mci
Lean fdr senator with the state candidates
as well nt = the party organization for him.
Still , it Is reported that ex-Congressman
Paul J. Sorg will also be in the field for
senator. The McLean men did not name
their first favorite for governor or hold the
resolutions as they had fixed them last
night , but these concessions were made In the
Interest o [ harmony. They wanted nothing
In the platform but thet declaration for free
silver as the paramount Issue , but they would
not vote against anti-trust and Cuban rtso-
lutiocn when once presented. When it be
came necessary for the McLean forces to
rally to Chapman on the second ballot In
order to end the contest the solid vote of
Highland county , the home of Hough , went
with that of the delegates from Cincinnati ,
Cleveland , Toledo and other cities that were
btrongly for whatever McLean wanted.
The silver republicans held a conference
tonight and expressed great Indignation.
They said It was true they had announced
they did not want a place on the state
ticket , but the announcement was not made
until after they were told they could not
have It. They nominated a separate ticket.
The populists also announced that they would
hold a state convention and have a separate
ticket. The prohibitionists will have two
separate tickets , so that there will bo at
least six state tickets in the Held.
The now Columbus auditorium , with a
seating capacity of 0,000 , had Just been
completed for the convention , and its ca
pacity was not equal to the demand for ad
mission. The new auditorium was beau
tifully decorated with buutlng and plants.
There was a profusion ot portraits of demo
cratic leaders about the walls , but that of
President Cleveland was not In the collec
tion. The Ohio tate convention last year
wan not BO strongly for fioe silver ea the
convention of today , and In the convention
ono year ago there was come disturbance
bccaiinc of a motion to "turn the plcturo ol
Cleveland to the wall. " The picture ol
Senator Bilce , ES well as other gold demo
crats , was mlrelng from the galaxy of herota
The familiar portrait of W. J. Ilryan was the
center of attraction , and that of the late
Allen G. Thtinnan was quite conspicuous.
Last year when John It. McLean was se
lected to head the Ohio delegation to Chicago
cage W , W. Durhln was made .chairman
of the state central committee , and ho wac
re-elected last night by the Mcl.oan In-
llucnco , while Daniel McConvllle was iiltr
re-elected chairman of the state executive
committee.
Whin the convention was called to ordci
at 10 a. m. by Chairman Durbln ho con
gratulated the party on the lgna of the
thnui and the cnthuslostlc condition of the
party. He made a speech for free silver
Prayer was offered by Ilev. E. L. He'xford ,
pastor of the Unlvereallst church ? ln till ,
city , and then Hon. Ulrlc Sloano wca Intro'
ducod aK the .temporaly chairman of the
convention.
POPULISTS GET NO PLACE.
f
Just before the convention was called tc
order a large gold cross was carried Intc
the hall. It had no ornaments the crown ol
thoins and a clock Indicating 1C to 1. II
was quite largo and as It formed the center
piece among the floral designs about the
stage , Chairman Sloane , In gesture , polnh-i
to it with great effect as he proceeded
with his vigorous speech. There was ulsr
a living white rooster perched on the fctagi
to add to the enthusiasm.
The speech of Chairman Sloanc- was fre
quently interrupted with the wildest dem-
onotratlons of appl-iuso , especially In hit
reftienci's to eliccr. The keynote of every
thing waa silver. The glee club that enter
tained the large audience In the early houn
sang the silver songs and It was on the
cllver chords that Chairman Sloane struuh
the rcuponslvc strain.
The committee on lulrn and order of bust-
made the usual with the
nei-s report ex
ception of a supplemental report on the
question of leaving ono vacancy on the stale
ticket lo be filled by the ttato league ol
silver republicans. The report referred the
ijiifjtlon back to the convention without
recommendation.
A communication was then presented from
the populist Elate committee also atiklng for
a place on the democratic btatc ticket with
a view to fuilon.
The special report ami the communication
to give the silver republicans and the popu-
lUtri each a placet on the Hate ticket were
IP 1 < 1 on the table after a heated dlttcuKdlon.
Alter the adoption of the report of the cre-
drntlalti committee which nettled Immaterial
conleHe in the Fourth and Seventh congres
sional districts the temporary organization
wan made permanent
General A J Warner EH chairman of the
committee ou rcojlutious , reported u plat
form , which was loudly cheered and
adopted ,
General Warner fxplilned that the com'
mltloo wss unanimous In prcepntlna the por.
tlon that covered ably the financial ques
tion , but that two supiilcmpnt.il resolutions
would be offered by a minority of the com
mittee.
The anti-trust resolution presented to the
committee last night wag offered by Casper
Lowcnstcln mid adopted ns follows :
We hereby declare nil trii'tH nnd monopo
lies hostile nnd dntigorous to the poople's-lu-
torestB and a stnndlnc menace to the perpet
uity of our free tnstltutlonx , and wo domiuul
the vigorous enforcement of nil null-trust
lawn nnd Fiic-li additional lcKlhitlon n may
be nccoRmiry for their Immediate nnd nnnl
Nominations for governor were then In
order nnd the following were presented :
Paul J. Sorg , Allen J. Smalley. A. W. Thur-
man , D. 1) . 'Donovan. H. T. Hough , Horace
L. Chapman , S. M. Hunter , 1. M. Van
Mctcr.i A. W. Patrick nnd Jnmos E. Hlce.
HOUGH I'ULLS OUT.
When Stnrk county was called It was an
nounced that that county had no name to
present. This meant that J. C. Welly , the
neighbor of President McKlnloy nt Canton.
had withdrawn. The name of Mayor James
A. Illce of Canton waa afterward presented
Instead of Mr. Welly.
Dcfore the ballol proceeded the name of
Hon. H. T. Hough was withdrawn with the
Btatcmcnt that there was no donlro on the
part of Mr. Hough's fitcnds to dictate a
nomination , and that It was a free-for-all
contest.
The call of counties procccilo.l slowly. Ham
ilton county , the home of John R. McLean ,
divided its vote almost equally between the
candidates , to contradict the report that Mc
Lean was dictating the slate nominations.
I Before the ballot was completed Joseph
1 Dowllng withdrew the name of Paul J. Sorg
I and moved lo suspend Ihe rules nnd noin-
i Inato 'Horace ' L. Chapman by acclamation.
, Great confusion followed. Mr. Chapman Is
ft largo owner and president of coal mines.
Ho has never held any oftlce nnd le very popular -
| ular with the miners , never having had a
strike.
The motion of Mr. Dowllng wns dually de
clared out of order nnd pandemonium reigned
for some time. There were 059 votes cast ,
with 4SO necessary for a choice.
The first ballot for governor resulted ns
follows : Sorg , IIS : Smalley , 12S4 ; Thurman ,
78 ; Donovan , 110i ; Chapman , 24l'J : Hun
ter , 01 ; Van Meter , 29 ; Patrick , CO ; Hlce ,
113 ; Reeves , 37 ; Warner , S ; Lentz , I ) . It
wrs announced that there was no nomina
tion.
licforo the second ballot began It was an
nounced that the names of Hough and Sorg
had been -withdrawn and that no motions to
suspend the rules and nominate by acclama
tion could be entertained cs long as the TO
was more than ono name before the con
vention.
CHAPMAN' NOMINATED.
During the second 'ballot there were sev
eral disturbances and more delay than dur
ing the flrt-t ballot. When Hamilton county
cast Its seventy-six votes solid for Chapman
the tide set In for him and the latter part
of the roll call was made with less diffi
culty. The second ballot resulted : Smalley ,
40 ; Thurman , 45 ; Donavan , S5'/ . ; Chapman ,
E9'J'/j ; Hunter , 13 ; Sloano , 1 ; Patrick , 4 ;
Hlce , 142 ; Lentz , IS ; necessary to a choice ,
4SO.

Horace L. Chapman was then declared the
nominee of the convention , the nomination
made unanimous and a committee appointed
to escort Mr. Chapman to the hall.
Ex-State Senator Melville Shaw of Wapa-
koneta was nominated for lieutenant gov
ernor and then Horace L. Chapman , the
nominee for governor , in accepting the nomi

ver question.
General , EH. P'nley mo.vcd lo take , from
thq table the reports on giving llio silver
republicans and tlio populists each a repre
sentative on the state ticket.
General A. J. Warner addressed the con
vention In favor of such representation , and
a general discussion was precipitated amid
much confusion.
OTHER NOMINATIONS.
Allen O. Myers made a sensational speech
on the suicidal policy of recognizing the
silver republicans without recognizing the
populists. Daniel Paliat , n member of the
state committee of the State League of Sli
ver Republicans , after the discussion had
continues for some tlmo , stated that the
silver republicans did not nsk * for a place
on the ticket. The motion to take the re
ports from ( ho table was then lost. For supreme
premo Judge the first ballot resulted as fol

rOUGHKEEl'SIB , N. Y. . June 30. Cor-
nrll won by thrco quarters of A length ;
Columbia second , by one tlilnl of a IcnglU
ever Pennsylvania. The official time : Cor
nell , 9:21 : 1-5 Beconds ; Columbia. 9:22 : 3-5
seconds ; Pennsylvania , 0:231-5 : seconds.
The fre-ohmcn race over the two inllo
course here Ihls afternoon between thrco
American crews rowing with imrcly Ameri
can methods was one of the most remark
able In the nminls of boat racing In this
country. It was maRnlncaiit , The freshmen ,
of Cornell , Columbia and Pennsylvania rowdl
with their heads ns well as with their
bodies , and showed science that was tur-
prlslng. The time 10 not record-breaking ,
because Ynlo made the same course In nlno
minutes and nineteen end one-half second ; )
last Wednesday , but both Columbia"flnlsn-
Ing second , and Pennsylvania , finishing
third , made better time limn did Harvard
and Yale finishing In the same places last
Wednesday.
When the pistol wns fired Pennsylvania
caught the water first with a awlfl stroke ,
that showed the nose of her boat clearly
ahead of the others. Cornell and Columbia
started a trifle more easy and Cornell fell
slightly to the rear of tne New Yorkers.
At the half Columbia was coming along
and the Pennsylvania lead of a quarter ot
a length was reduced to a bare eighth.
Down to the end of the first mile there was
a terrific race for a place. Columbia's
stroke oar caught a crab In the last rnlt
and lost about four strokra. Cornell l.nd
made the lead throe quarters ot a length
nnd had a length the advantage when Co
lumbia spurted. Pennsylvania responded
with a thirty-five stroke , but the long shell
of the New Yorkers fairly lifted Itself
along and went by the Pennoylvanla boat
and after the Cornell shell like a thing
bewitched. On It went , the boat lapping-
the rudder post of the Cornell boat anil
creeping up towards the stroke oar. Just
_ os the nose of the boat lined even with the
stroke _ oar of the Cornell crew , tlio two
boats crossed the line and Cornell was a
winner by. three-quartern of a length. Per.a-
"BylVanla'"whipped the- luatrflveor"'six
strokes''and finished 1biily half a length bc-
hlnd.
The first official tlmo given out was D
minutes. 21 seconds and the corrected tlmo
given out this 'evening was 0 minutes , 21 15
