CEDAR RAPJDS , la. , Aug. 1C. ( Specla
Telegram. ) Today was a day of Intenst
activity , although the number of delegate !
nnd visitors was not extremely large. The
gubernatorial situation at a late hour to
night , In Its general aspect , hao not changei
materially ; that Is to eay , Parrott It ) stll
conceded to lead as to the number of vote :
ho will have on the first ballot , with Fun !
a good second. The partisans ot Byers , Shav
and Haruh worked hard today to break tin
Panott lines and each man Is confident tha
ho will be able to land the prize if the bal
lotlng becomes protracted.
Fllcklnger has also arrived and openci
headquarters , but ho docs not expect to pol
any conoldcrablo vote on the start and wll
have to depend entirely upon protracted bal
lotlng for a chance for the nomination. Tin
Ilr-m y county delegation arrived early Ii
the morning and opened headquarters at tin
Clifton hotel. It seemed today as thougl
the Harlun stiength was something alto
gcther Intangible. In fact , lo tell the truth
there were no evidences ot the Harlan boon
today. What strength ho might display I
'
there Is a proctractcd contest In the con
vcntlon cannot be predicted , It Is concede
that the Harlan following Is without an ;
organization whatever and wholly sent !
mental. The Fuller strength at present i
largely confined to the Fourth district , al
though he will have several scattering vote
from a number ot delegations. Mr. Fulle
niakcH an excellent oration , haa a fine rcc
ord hack of him nnd If It were not for th
fact that thu Parrott forces fell somewha
bitter against him because ho entered th
fight late In the day , thus securing a ills
trlct that would have been practically soil
for Pnrrott , his chances would bo a giea
deal better than they are today.
John Cownlo of Iowa county seemed t
have headquarter ! In the saddle today. H
was doing a large amount of personal wort
but to what purposes cannot even bo guessed
CHANCE FOR SHAW.
There was conolderable talk today ot
combination against Parrott with Shaw a
the beneficiary. The Shaw workers ar
among the most active. His law partnci
Carl Kuelinle , has a very extensive acquaint
nnco and never sleeps. Ho and his assc
( lutes claim that the outlook is very cu
couraglng. A number of the leading poll
tlclans admit that If Parrott does not dc
velop itrength very soon after the fight coir
nionccs that his forcca will , .break to Shaw
Some of the very shrewdest politicians p'n
diet that the Crawford county lawyer \vl
win not later than the fifth ballot. It I
asserted that Parrott cannot hold his suppoi
In the Seventh district for more than on
ballot ; that ho cannot bold tbe Fifth fc
moro than two or three ballots , and tlu
when that goes his supporters In the Fire
district will desert him and the "goose wl
be cooked. "
If _ Shaw Is nominated Dr. J. II. Smith (
Cedar Rapld will be his running mate ; i
least It Is HO generally conceded. Judc
Waterman , who has some powerful supper
era here , will no doubt bo named for Judf
of the supreme court , and Henry Sabln fc
superintendent of public Instruction , It Sba
and Smith are named.
The Temple amendment Is a very muc
talked subject and It Is generally concede
that it Is going to cause conslderab
trouble in the committee on resolution
There arc three distinct views touching th
matter and each Is being actively urge
First , there are those who want nothln
whatever said about the Temple amendmcn
no reference to it cither directly or ind
rcctly. Then there arc those who demar
that the Temple amendment bp endorse
specifically. The third class do not ask thi
tun amendment bo endorsed specifically , bi
they demand that the principle underlying
lie endorsed. H is probable that the latt
class will win the day.

NEW YORK , Aug. 10. The wheat mar
ket developed pronounced activity and
strength today , breaking the best previous
price for the eeaion by 14 cents a bushel.
All day the market wag In a nervous , er
ratic condition , with a range of about 2
ct-nts a bushel. Shorts were completely de
moralized by the scarcity of offerings and
abundance ot hull ncw , and thtlr excited
efforts to even up was one of the features
of the day. At times realizing sales
reached proportions sufficiently large to
break prices sharply , but the market's In
herent buoyancy caused a prompt rally on
each occasion nnd the close wcs very firm ,
although unsettled , at from 2 % to 2H cents
net advance. Foreign houero added to the
general bull feeling on 'change. They
bought In all about fifty loads , of which
sixteen loads of guaranteed No. 2 red wcra
for France. On the top of this demand
was a strong set of English cables and a
dccrciso of 1,426,000 bushels In the English
visible supply. Opening Paris cables came
higher , but a half holiday prevented any
later news being received. Many traders
connected the French demand today with the
icportcd lowering of duty In that country.
Today September wheat opened at 91U
ccnU > , against 89U cents on Saturday , ad
vanced 2i cents nnd closed at 91 % cents.
Transactions were the heaviest In many
days , teaching 11,655,000 bushels. Cash
wheat was quoted at from U5 % to yO',4
cents for No. 2 led , according to delivery ,
o. b. afloat. The total stock of wheat
i New York Is 760,093 bushels , of which
bout 285,000 bushels Is contract. The
trength In other markets of the country
II had a bearing on local prices , particu-
rly the Chicago advance.

SAN SEBASTIAN , Aug. 14. ( by way of
Bajonnc. France , Aug. 16. ) ( New York
World Cablegram Special Telegram. ) ( De
layed In Transmission. ) General Blanco had
an audience with the queen before he left
San Sebastian for the baths at Bcttllu , In
this province , and promised to return here
within a week to confer with General Azcar-
raga , the premier ad Interim. General
Blanco , who seemed to be In excellent health
nnd eplrlts , told the queen that his serv-
les were at the disposal of the government ;
that ho was ready to be Kent to Cuba or
anywhere else. Though he was reserved In
speaking of Cuba , he believes that the pres
ent state of affairs In that colony and In
Spain warrants a new line ot policy , a
change of the military and political systems
In Cuba , with a view to making homo rule
and the autonomist party the principal fac
tors In pacification and the complete re
establishing of Spanish rule. He manifests
no animus against the United States. On
the contrary he considers that a wise , con
ciliatory policy In Cuba would Insure the
neutrality. It not the support , of the United
Stales. The queen was much Impressed on
hearing the general's views.
WOODFORD WILL WAIT.
"Minister Taylor heard yesterday from Gen
eral Woodford , the now United States mln-
loterhose Intention wae to reach San
Sebastian August 21 , but now ho will post
pone hh arrival until September 1. He may
present Ma credentials hero If ho likes , but
the American legation has been ofilclatly In
formed that he cannot be received here with
as much state as In Madrid , and must be
content with an unostentatious audience ,
similar to those recently given to the Jap
anese envoy extraordinary and the British
ambassador , who were the bearers ot thei
Victorian Order to the little king. It was
deemed advisable that the American min
ister should defer his arrival , as It seems
probable that the queen cither will recon- ,
etruct the cabinet shortly , with General
Azcarraga and Senor Pldal , the president of
the Chamber of Deputies , as the principal
leaders of a conservative coalition govern
ment , or will summon Senor Sagasta to or
ganize a liberal ministry , with Marshal
Campcs to succeed General Weyler In Cuba ,
with a view to making an understanding-
easier with- the Cubans and the United
States. Even If the conservatives remain In
office , the general Impresslcn In court and
diplomatic circles Is that General Weyler
will be superseded by General Campcs , or
somebody else. The duke of Tetuan told
several foreign ambassadors yesterday that
he considered the present cabinet merely
provlslonary. He believes political changes
are Imminent
The Spanish court and the principal
statesmen. Including the leading West In
dian senators .Tiul deputies , think the death
of Canovas will not affect the relations be
tween Spain and the United States. On the
contrary , they believe any probable suc
cessor , whether liberal or conservative , can
afford to reverse the policy of the last twc
years better than the eminent and regretted
conservative chief , whose proud , unbending
spirit would not submit to the conciliation
and compromise which most Spaniards now
deem advisable and Inevitable.
WARRIORS FAVOR AZCARUAQA.
All the leading generals advocate the
selecting of General Azcarraga as the leadoi
of the conservative party , and the chief ol
the cabinet In come sort of national char
acter , to Bolve the colonial problems and the
relations with America , with the tacit sup
port of all the dynastic and opposition far-
tics and the neutrality of the Carlisle anil
republicans on patriotic grounds.
The council of ministers has gravely re
solved to take no notice of the activity am
Intrigues of Romero Robledo , and to slmplj
accede to the queen's wishes for Azcarrag :
to icsume permanent direction of the gov
eminent and party. They will be helped bj
the orders Senor Sllvela hao given to thi
dissentient conservatives and ot Senor Sa
gasta to the liberals to abstain from dem
castrations , speeches and even declaration !
likely to Increase the difficulties of the sit
nation and to wait calmly until couservatlvi
divisions and , the logic of events evolve semi
solution.
SHERMAN'S UTTERANCES.
Senor Castellar and several other leadlni
statesmen , both liberal and conservative
have been questioned concerning certah
declarations recently attributed to Secre
tary Sherman , and they assert that they di
not attach any Importance to them even 1
true , because all Spanish politicians and th
government always draw the line betweei
the opinions and the utterances of Secretar ;
Sherman and President McKlnley. They ar
firmly convinced that the statesmanship
foresight and spirit of Justice of the presl
dent would easily overrule the prejudices o
the secretary of state , even If the tradltlom
of the latter's office did not oblige Mr. Sber
man to understand the expediency of ab
staining from compromising expressions o
opinion , formerly compatible with the Inde
pendent petition of a member ot the ecu
ate , but not with that of a minister of th
great republic.
This crisis will receive Its solution In Sai
Sebastian after they all confer with thi
queen. According to an ancient polltica
custom of Spain no alteration In tbo cablnc
is etiquette before nine days elapse aftc
the death of Canovas. Signs ot division al
ready are visible In the ranks of the con
servatlve party. Romero Hoblcdo , backci
by the protectionists at home and the Cubai
reactionary party , objects to the ideas o
General Azcarraga. General Azcarraga am
the duke of Tetuan want to take advantage
of the excellent deposition of the opposition
to reorganize the party and to elbow Homer
out. Should Romero , with his turbulcn
spirit , make mischief , ho simply will haste :
the advent ot the liberals Into office , a solu
lion which would be equally well received b ;
the nation as the best means to pave th
way to a settlement of the Cuban questloi
and the relations with the United States ,
Considerable satisfaction has been causei
In court and official circles by the news tha
General Woodford , the new United State
minister , has postponed his arrival until th
end of August and will not present his ere
dentlals until the first week in Septcmbei
This will give the queen regent ample tlm
to settle the domestic politics of Spain an
the ministerial crisis , with General Azcat
raga as the new premier and probabl
leader of the conservative party , who wll
reach San Sebastian Thursday.

The government auddj-nly dctrrmlned , on
Saturday , to hasten the trial and execution
of Anglollllo. Tclegramo from the war oincc
were sent to Vltorla and San Sebastian
that obliged the members and prraldcnt ot
the court martial and the puUlle prcurcutor
to start from that garrison In the middle ol
the night , arriving at Vergara about day-
! break. The local authorities , also Instructed ,
hurried preparations In tlic civil court house.
A strong guard was posted nil Around. Other
precautions were taken. ; All eusplclous-look-
Ing foreigners nnd strangeM were clcaely
watched , because the authoritlco of Vltorla
had arrested on Saturday Iwo Gcrmann ,
alleged workmen on a tramp ilnquoH ot work ,
lit who had anarchist and socialist r'-pera
n their persons , and could not satisfactorily
ccount for their movements.
All the members of the courtj according
o custom , first heard main In the prln-
Ipal Vergara church. Then they proceeded
n full uniform , with an escort , to thci hall
f Justice. Tl.c court room wcs. not large ,
jut was well lighted by several .windows. At

n the center the prcaldcnt , Colonel of Ar-

ant of Artillery Gorrla , eat"bn the left , look-
ng grave under the dlfilcujt task assigned

oner refused to select counsel from a list
if six ofilccra proposed to him. Civil guards ,
oldlcrs , with fixed bayonets , stood at the
loors. Comparatively few people were prcs-
silt , except officials , though everybody In
Vergara knew the trial was taking place.
Curiosity centered In the prisoner

When brought In Anglollllo gazed dcfiantlj
around , curiously scrutinizing faces ns I :

DENVER , A'UR. ' 16. ( Special Telegram. )
John T. Robn..on ! I In the grocery buslne. a
j In Omaha and If ho maUrs no claims of
1 being n detective he has the Instinct of one.
1 If he had not , his pretty little daughter ,
| Annie , would be on her way to Salt Lake
City with a young man who may be all right ,
and who may not.
Roblnsxm caught the young man and hla
daughter together at the Union depot , but
ho did not hold the young man , whose name
Is Charles iFletchcr. The fellow got awny ,
but as he has two tickets for Sail Lake
City In his possession , It Is probable that ho
will leave town as soon no he can. He Is
hiding somewhere In the city today.
Fletcher eloped with Annie Robinson Sat
urday. Mr. Robinson was In despair. The
young man had been meeting the girl
secretly during the last six months nnd
against the wishes of her parents , for
Fletcher seldom worked and always op-
icared to be well supplied with money. This
a what made Mr. Robinson suspicious of
Jitin. He said today that ho would not have
objected to the young man paying his at
tentions to his daughter If he had known
ilm to be trustworthy. When Annie disap
peared from her homo Saturday he made
up his nilnd that she had gone away with
[ 'Ictcher. Ho made Inquiries and learned
: hat the young man had gone to a nearby
: own and purchased two tickets for Salt
Liiko City. Mr. Robinson purchased a ticket
for the same town , but at a venture for the
couple had such a start he feared he would
not catch them. As It turned out , however ,
ho had taken the next train after the
elopers.
They arrived hero at 7 this morning nnd
10 arrived at 7:30. : Ho decided he would cat
some breakfast before communicating with
the police , for he had done this In every
city In which the train made a lengthy stop ,
and ho entered the lunch room. There ho
wao thunderstruck with surprise and pleas
ure. His daughter and Fletcher were sitting
at ono of the tables enjoying their morning
mealMr. . Robinson made a rush for them
and caught Mr. Fletcher by the collar. The
latter , however , Is n wiry young man and
: io twisted loose and dashed out of the
Seventeenth street entrance. Fearing to
lose Annie , Mr. Robinson let him go. The
girl was In tears and her father , In order
; o avoid a scene , led her to the American
house and talked to her. She said Fletcher
Intended to marry her In Salt Lake City
and then they were to go on to San Fran
cisco , where he expected to secure employ
ment. The girl was penitent and expressed
icr willingness to accompany her father back
home. They left on this afternoon's train.
As there is no complaint against Fletcher
ho is free to go west if he likes , but If he
returns to Omaha Mr. Robinson promises to
make trouble for him. 1
