S up. run, perhaps, was cue te me
Ivlnjr rain storm tbatbroke ever the
y thin morning and kept up until after
hifar. set for the convention. The del-
ties, workers and lookers en remained
the hotels until nearly 10 o'clock. When
ite Chairman Kisner came Inte the hall
)re were net a dozen people In the galle-
s, and less than half the delegates were
their seats. Alter 10 o'clock the dele
tes began te come in with a rush, and
tb galleries rapidly filled up.
vhe sentiment was as it bad been all
ng, strongly In favor of Paulsen. The
allace men bad abandoned their claim of
i delegates for thelr candidate and said
i result depended upon the field. The
ttlsen peeple were confident they would
n en the first ballet. The Wallace men
mid net concede this and asserted that
j field wan stronger than Patttsen.
e Patttsen men's bold move In
mlng William F. Harrtty, the leader of
lr forces, for permanent chairman, was
;atded as a clever stoke of policy. Tlie
illace men decided te pit Judge Church,
Meadville, against Harrity. Church Is u
eng friend of Wallace, but he Is a Pattl-
l delegate. Tlie result of the tight en
rmanent chairman will decide tlie con-
t for governor.
t was half-past ten o'clock when Chair-
in Kisner called the convention te order,
sectary Nead proceeded te call tlie roll of
legates and it ran along smoothly enough
til Blair county was reached. There Is
onteat In that county and tlie Pattlsen
in were placed en the roll. "When
iy were read Mr. Landls, one
tlie contestants, demanded te be
Itrd. He said the men whose
lines had been read were net the dele-
from Blair. Chairman Kisner in-
ntly called him te order. Then followed
cene of excitement. The galleries hissed
d yelled "-Let hint talk." Other centes
ts demanded " fair play " in loud and
jry voices. Chairman Kisner peuuded
th bis gavel.' -He finally obtained order
d get the Blair man in ills seat. He
n said that the contest from Blair county
mid go -te the commlttee en creden-
Is. where It belonged. After this outbreak
roll call ran smoothly te the end, there
Ing only occasional outbursts of applause
some well known delegate. There were
lumber of substitutions and at the close
airman Kisner anneunced that the elec
n of temporary chairman was new In
Jer.
Mr. Kuline, of Luzerne, nominated
kley B. Cexa for temporary chairman
d he wna elected by acclamation. Chair
in Kisner appointed Oen. ColTreth, of
merset, and Win. M. SIngerly, or Fhlla
lphla, te escort Mr. Coxete the platform.

TUK PLATFORM.
Following is the platform :
The Demecrats of Pennsylvania, by their
epr.'sentatlves in Mate convention assent-
)ld, renewing ineir lermsr ptuiges ei
Idallty and devotion te tlie sacred rigbf,
if the people and state, de declare:
Fir ml. That ballet reform Is necessarvand
this end the necessity for ueiubllug of
t constitutional convention for the purpose
of remevimr a marked ballet clause et the
constitution, tn mat n ws may ue cniisinu
iinmllp e-irtpd for the usurance of the
jscreev nfh)a ballet and the freedom of the
voter.'! recognized as Imperative and un
avoidable.
Sacenu. That tann letermiis necessary
Jn order that manufacturers rosy be freed
260.
fro Ihe burden of unnecessary taxes eh
raw materials, the laborer relieved from
taxation of the necessaries of lire, and the
consuming millions disburdened of the
lneubus or excessive revenues laid only for
tat production of surplus which becomes
the spoils of party parasites and public
plunderers. "
Third. That local tax reform is neces
sary In order that taxation for county,
municipal and township purposes nay Jje
equalised, unjust discrimination against
values and in favor of certain kinds of
personal property under existing Uwe,
may be corrected and that the farmer may
be relieved of the double tax. en t lie .value
of his farm and the principal or the mort
gage which may stand against ft.
Fourth. That tba law requiring that th
surplus in the atata treasury shall be In
vested In atata or United States bends must
be observed and executed.
Fifth. That w recur with nrlde te the
administration of ex-President Grevet
Cleveland and challenge comparison et the
courage, fidelity and lutegrity.ef that
administration with the duplicity, vaclllla
tiennnd corrupt surroundings of that new
In power.
Sixth, That we favor such policy with
regard te the coinage of silver as will keep
both geld and silver coins in circulation or
treasury notes redeemable In the same.
Seventh. That right te be apprenticed te
a trade should net be subject te restriction
of race, nor nativity, but should be en
joyed equally by the youth of the state,
without distinction except as te merit.
Eighth. That we depreciate and de
nounce the uneqaal apportionment of dis
tricts for the election of representatives in
Congress, and believethat the voters of the
state should be allowed te make their own
apportionments, which they could de if no
apportionments wero made by law and
each voter were permitted te cast one vote
for ene candidate for Congress and no
mere.
We accept the issue of Quay Ism toadered
by the late Republican convention and we
arraign the Republican -party ter its usur
pation of power In administration or the
federal government, which the people of
the states have net granted for placing In
the hands of a dictator In the chair or the
speaker of the federal Heuse of Repre
sentatives, the pewer te legislate for repre
sentatives of the whole people, for
its open disregard for the previsions
of civil service law which tbe president
of its choice was solemnly pledged
te support, for Us failure- te ful
fill its promlse te honorably discharge
soldiers of the union ; for its ceaseless
efferts te promote sectional strife and dis
turb the tranquility or the country for Its
lavish and reckless expenditure of publle
moneys; for the passage through the Heuse
of Representatives of a tariff bill
which Increases taxes en necessaries,
reduces only these laid upon lux
uries, and is calculated te promote and
fester trusts for its failure te enforce
laws against Importation of contract
and pauper laborers ; for its attempt te pass
a federal election law designed te excite
a race war, and finally and ospecl especl
ally for Its Indifference te the rights
of labor ; Its defeat of labor
bills In the last legislature; its failure
te enforce articles alxteen and soventeen
of the constitution by proper legislation ;
its corrupt methods In popular elections
and Us cringing subserviency te a party
boss, who stands mute before the most
terrible Inculpation ever charged agalust
a public official.
Recalling with pride the glories ef our
party's past rejoicing, in the majesty of its
present strength and looking forward te its
speedy triumph throughout the country,
we confidently appeal te the Intelligence
and Integrity of the people el Pennsylva
nia for their active and enthusiastic sup
pert of political reforms this Inscribed
upon the standard of a united, progressive
and aggrossive Democracy.
Jlensel and Bleck Interviewed.
In a two column article the Scranton
correspondent of the New Yerk H'erM
says:
The pride and beast of Lancaster, as ex
emplified iu the handsome person of Wil
liam U. Hensel, drove te the Wyoming in
a cab this evening. I asked him If he were
really a candidate before the convention.
"That depends, my dear fellow," said
he, " upon what you leek fur in a candi
date. I came te town, as you see, net
exactly riding an asa, but in a rather seedy
hired carriage. I have a sleeping room
here, but no hand will play under my
window te-night unless some ether fellow
pays the teeter. I have no headquarters,
no 8houters,uene of the familiar assesseries
which a candidate who expects anything
accumulates. I expect that one of the Lan
caster delegates will mention me among
the rest when there is a call for nomina
tions for governor, but there will be no
speech In my behalf. Se you see that I am
ue candidate afteij the orthodox fashion ; I
am simply a patitut, amiable, modest and
inuUi-enuurinu law practitioner, whocaine
ever te see old friends. Only this and
nnthlnt? mnre."
I discovered Chauncey Forward Black
in a small upper chamber at the Wyoming.
Thsre was no visible evidence that the sage
of Yerk is a candidate The members of
the Yerk delegation were present catching
words of political wisdom and statecraft
which fell from his lips. There was a tri
umphal expression nn ex-Uev. Black's
smooth, round physiognomy which be
tokens something highly satisfactory te
himself.
"Are they going te nominate you to
morrow?" 1 asked.
" Ne, I have something better than that.
They will adept bit pet plank, which I
wish euill line uispiaiierin. ji weuiu ue
mere te put down Quayism in Pennsylva
nia, if it were nut lu practice, than aline&t
all else. I will read It you :

terthe purpose or roineving
the marked
ballet clause of the constitution, be that
laws may be constitutionally enacted ler
the assurance of the secrecy of the ballet
and the freedom of the voter, Is recognized
as imperative and unavoidable.
"There," exclaimed the ex-governor,
" I would deem it as great a victory if I
could see that measure adopted by the
people of Pennsylvania as if I hail lust
lieeii elected president of the United
States."
" What will you de In the convention to
morrow T "
" I will be named by one of my home
delegation. There will be no nomination
speech. I am net a serious candidate ; my
friends ever In Yerk wish te de this, and I
certainly shall net prevent them. The two
real candidates Pattlsen and Wallace are
going ever the list of delegates with energy.
They are having a clese contest, and both
sides are striving tocapture our little Yerk
delegation. They each assert that it is in-
disnensable te have it. 1 have net com
mitted myself te any ene after myself. I
think we have a geed man in the state in
the event of It being Impossible te nomi
nate Wallace or Pattlsen. I refer te Judge
Silas M. Clark, of the supreme court. He
was elected In 1882, you knew, and he ran
ahead of tbe ticket. He would make an
admirable compromise candidate." And
after he had completed the utterances of
the above monMened bltef wisdom ex-Gov.
Black drank lemonade with seme newly
arrived Yerkists.

The volunteer toast referred te the treaty

When the Sew Ent people take posses

Keys hotel, en West King street, was con
verted Inte a store by theSnydnr Brethers.
The old Black Herse hotel, en North Queen

largest saloons en North Queen street was
tnade into a store for the Astrlch Brethers
and this spring Geerge H. Miller's hotel
made way for u confectionery. With the less
of the license of Mr. Snyder's place the

few blocks of Third avenue mid Seventy
fifth street, New Yerk, were seriously
poisoned en Monday evening by Ice cream
which had been purchased or D. Brink
man, conffrtlenor, of 1,274 Third avenue.
The lives or several or the victims were
saved only by the greatest exertions or the
physician.
The iymptem In each case were of me
tallic poisoning and the trouble was at
ence traced te the Ice cream. ' The pat louts
were seized with severe pain and violent
vomiting. In the wtrt cases utter pros
tration followed with insensibility, and the
body bocame almost pulseless.
Theso whose eendltlqn Is serious are,!
Annie, Emma and Martha Hayes.; J. A.

had poisoned the cream. It was found that

which wero sold were poisoned. This was
vanilla. It had been made by .Meyer.

about two months and hnd net given satis
faction. He wns te have been dlsmlssed
after the Keurth of July rush was evor, and
he learned this en Saturdav through over ever over
hearlng a conversation In the store
Meyor sa a the only wny he can account
for poison getting Inte the lce cream Is that
the knives In tbe froezor scraped off enough
copper rust te ennxe the bad effects. He
affirms that there was no erdlgrls. as the
cepper rust is called, en the utensils when

cils te have the diamond at Duke and East
King st roots, which is in torrlble condition,
laid with blocks, as well ns between the
rails from East King te Grant street. The
street car company will be required te pay
its share of the cost.
The opinion or the city solicitor was
asked en the (mention whether the street

company has net signed and the president,
W. J. Lewis, Is noii'cemmlltal as te his lu lu
tentinns. In the Mahoning valley the
Struthers Iren company is the only ene
which has signed, and 11,000 men lu the

In the case of the McKcespert mill the

This is the only Instance where there is
any prospect of a prolonged contest and
even that Is net certain.

The Philadelphia JYew ssys Mr. Dcla Dcla

TIIIC CANADIAN l.t lll-.lt A1.3.
Krnstus Wlmntt Thinks They Necd Net
Ue tlut of Ciimida Fer n Louder.
Krastun Wiman, of New Yerk, was
shown en Tuesday an extract from La
JVifnV, nf Montreal, naming Mr. Wiman as
the new leader of tlie Liberal party In Can
ada. The editor suggested that Mr. Wiman
ought tocemn ever and livelu Canada a year
and then lead the Liberals te victory lu the
coming Parliament, In reply, Mr. Wimsn
said that the LI bera 1 party of Canada
was In such a position that It need net go
outslde Of its own ranks for a standard
bearer, and he mentioned Edward Blake,
Sir Richard Cartwrlght aud Wilfred Lull Lull
rler as competent leaders. " As te absent
ing myself n year from New Yerk," he
said, "It would be practically Impossible,
iu view of numoieualmslnoss engagements,
but it Is my deliberate Intention that, in
stead of taking n vacation this year, I will
next year take two holidays, and devete
most or the summer te the campaign In an
ticipation of the general election In Canada.
I propeao te purcliase a pnlr of horses at
Windser, oppesito Detroit, and, driving
through Ontaile nnd Quobeo. make 100
speoches In 100 dllferent ieculltles, ending
my Journey at Montreal. If I am net able
within that time te convince the Canadians
of tlie advantages that will result from the
closest posslble Intimacy with the United
States and secure the triumii of the Lib
oral party my labor will be lu vain. As in
a certain sonse representing n million Cana
dians, who have rocelvod a wolcemo se un
stinted in this country, I conslder the
greatest achievement of n somewhat actlve
life would be the obliteration of at least the
trade barrier that new lies between these
two great countries."
An Early Merntuu fire.
At nn early hour this morning an alarm
of fire was sounded from box 45, which Is
located at Mitrket and Fredcrlck streets.
The II re was caused by the burning of a
small frame shed en the premises occupied
by Henry Helz. butcher at Ne. 560 North
Queen street. It was discovered at half
past ene o'clock by Officer Geerge Brown,
who at ence uwakeued the family nf Mr.
Helland struck the alarm. Company Ne.
4 was seen en hand. The firemen put a
stream of water en the flames and extin
guished them, but the shed was almost
entirely consumed. The shed was built
against a large br'ck smeke heure, which
was but slightly damaged. Other build
ings that are of frame wero also near, but
they were saved. The fenees near the shed
wero badly damaged. The entire less will
net be very heavy.
The fire was undoubtedly the work efan
incendiary, who probably thought that
the flumes would spread te the buildings
near.
