The Time for the Voting Arrives.
Ezrira ion of the time limit made the
taking of a vote the next order of the day.
Just before taking the vote the Moderator
made a statement of the power of the
Assembly in case the appeal should be sus
tained. That power goes to the extent that
jt is competent to reverse the Judgment of
the Presbytery and to send the case back for
trial upon th"e same charges and specifica
tions. It is not competent for the Assem
bly itself to try the case upon its merits.
The first specification under the first
ground of appeal, after being read, was sus
tained by a vive voce vote. From this ac
tion two members protested. The reading
of the specifications and voting continued
throughout the six grounds of appeal with
their 25 specifications. Each specification
was sustained apparently by aboul the same
vote.
Upon the final question the yeas and nays
were called and the vote was announced as
follows: "Sustain as a whole," 302; "Sus
tain in part," 127; not to sustain, 87; total
vote, 51G. ,
A ntubarj; l'attor Ileads the Committee.
As soon as the vote was announced, Judge
Sayler moved a resolution of purport as
follows:
Whereas. The appeal In this case has been
sustained by this Assembly.
Kesolved, TbAt tho verdict or the Presby
tery of New York be reversed In all particu
lars; and
Resolved, That all papers in me case oo
returned to the Stated Clerk of that Presby
tery, and that the Presbytery be and hereby
is o"tdered to proceed to th trial or the case
iipon its merit.
On motion this resolntion was referred to
a committee consisting of Jt dee Ewing, of
Pittsburg; Jndge Sayler, of Indiana; Mr.
Junkin, of Philadelphia; Dr. Moflatt, of
"Washington and Jefle rson College, and Dr.
Alexander, ot San Francisco, for the pur
pose of putting it in proper legal form,
with instructions to report it at the opening
of the iession Monday morning next. The
Assembly then adjourned.

Society to-day the resolution of Dr. H. L.
VaIand, protesting against the outrages
on colored men the South by lawless mobs,
and invoking the Government to prevent
their continuance, was adopted. Other reso
lutions presented yesterday, protesting
against the opening of the World's Fair on
Sunday, against prominence being given
the Roman Catholic Church in the arrange
ments for the Fair, and "Recognizing the
house-wife instead of the cloister or nun or
Sister of Charity as a helper in Western
civilization," were reported. Another reso
lution was introduced by Dr. Wayland and
adopted, as follows:
Resolved. Tfiat as American citizens and
Baptists we insist upon the entire separa
tion of Church and 8tate, and that.tlierefore,
we steadily and sturdily piotcst ajmlnst any
such danzerous assaults upon our public
KCliools as that know n as the Faribault and

such plans would necessarily result in
the ultimate dissipation of our splendid
public school system, and wonld.also, lesult
in :m unconstitutional union of Church and
state."
General X J. Morgan, United States
Commissioner of Indian Affairs, and
others spoke on work amonc the
colored people. The society chose Denver

Behlin, May 28. Beneath the surface,
which is calm, political life in Berlin now
presents a much perturbed appearance. The
movement of the parties keeps the party
leaders on a strain.
Both the National Liberal and the Frei
sinnge parties have been holding conven
tions, the former at Eisenach and the latter
at Mannheim. The Freisinnge Assembly
included delegates from the Northern,
Southern and Central sections of Germany.
Herr Ficnter, in an address, explained the
attitude of the Government in the matter
of electoral reforms in Prussia, in relation
to which subject the position of Herr
Herrfurth, the Prussian Minister of the In
terior, has been misrepresented. Instead of
promising to introduce in the Landtag a
bill reforming the electoral districts, Herr
Herrfurth declares that the Government
will uphold the existing system. Herr
Herrfurth declines positively to introduce
any measure having for its object the re
distribution of seats, and scouts the idea of
applying a system of universal suffrage to
Prussian elections.
Every Party Fights on Iw Own Book.
The Freisinnge leaders, hoping to find
the National Liberals willing to unite in an
attack upon Herr Herrfurth, were surprised
to find Herr Hobrechtand other prominent
National Liberals pronouncing in favor of
the Government The idea of a coalition
between the Freisinnge party and the Na
tional Liberals is becoming more and more
improbable.
irregular combinations against the Gov
ernment, embarrassing legislation, have
become the feature of the day. Thus, the
Government wan defeated in the Lower
House of the Diet on the bill securing
secrecy of income tax returns, by combined
votes of Conservatives, Centrists and
members of the Freisinnge party. In
the coming general elections for members
of the Landtag, each party will probably
fight by itself. Overtures for the entente
between the leaders of the Conservatives
and Centrists, and the Freisinge and Na
tional Liberals, have entirely ceased.
The war being waged in the newspapers
over President Carnot's proposed visit to
Nancy on the day of Pwtecost, has neither
official prompting nor approval.
Emperor William Not Dint orbed.
The Emperor and the Ministers, accord
ing to the belief in the Foreign Office, are
indifferent regarding the Nancy demonstra
tions. President Carnot is free, so far as
they are concerned, to make a tour of the
frontier, and the French Government is
free to organize whatever manifestations it
may see fit.
The course adopted by them will not alter
the tenor of the German regime in Alsace
Lorraine. The Emperor may respond at
Metz in September to the Nancy demonstra
tions by prolonged maneuvers on a large
scale on the battlefield of 1870.
The official press has been instructed to
declare the existence of the Dreibtind se
cure, whatever may be the outcome of the
Italian crisis.
Military Outrages on Civilian.
Another military outrage upon civilians
is reported from Spandau. An infantry
officer of the garrison there, who was proba
bly excited by drink, interfered in a dis
pute which had arisen among a party of"
civilians, and, drawing his sword, slashed
right and left, wounding several persons.
The crowd who witnessed the affair became
terribly excited, and the interference of the
police alone prevented them from lynching
the officer on the spot.
Lieutenant Lucius, who was involved in
the recent Mentz affair, has resigned his
commission, but will, nevertheless, be tried
by court martial. The Emperor has issued
a private order to commanders, instructing
them to exercise a stricter supervision over
their officers, and to severely punish all
offenses against civilians.
The heat in Berlin is intense, the ther
mometer at noon to-day registering 34
Celsius. A number of sunstrokes have been
reported.

St. Petersburg, May 2a With a view
to acquainting the Americans with the
Russian sugar industry, the Department of
Trade and Manufactures, through the inter
mediary of the President of the Kieff
Bourse Committee, has proposed to the
sugar refiners of Southwestern Russia to
exhibit 'in the Russian section of the
World's Fair collective samples of the
products of their industry independent of
the exhibits made by individual refiners.
At the same time, it is suggested that a
brief statistical review ot the sugar industry
in Southwestern Russia "should be com

gradual development of this industry and
its present condition.

LONDON, May 28. Advices received here
from Fez, one of the capitals of Morocco,
arc tbat Colonel Sir Charles Beau Euan
Smith, the British Envoy, ihas tjoisted the
British flag over the building which the
embassy occupies. This is regarded in Fez
as a most extraordinary event, being the
first time that a foreign flag has ever floated
in this Moorish capital.
The people do not take kindly to the in
novation, and the presence of the emblem has
created considerable excitement. Already
there is loud murmuring among the natives
over the unusual event, and it is possible
that serious trouble may result.

Ben Floyd, the train robber, who so mys

was heard from last night at White Springs,
on the Georgia Southern and Florida Rail

searchers, and turned up there, leaping
from the railroad bridge into the Suwanee

Chicoea, May 28. Special Harry
Kinney, of Pittsbnrg, lies in this city in a
semi-conscious condition, with death almost
certain, suffering intensely from a fractured
skull and other bruises which he received
in a mysterious manner Thursday night
Kiuney was visiting a brother in the coun
try four miles from here, and day before
yesterday came into town and became in
toxicated. In this condition he started for
home, but in the morning he as lound in a
boiler shop on the edge of town in the con
dition already stated. His first words
were, "Well, I got the worst of it."
He was removed to a honse nearby, when
a physician was summoned and pronounced
his case almost hopeless. There is every
indication of foul play, notwithstanding
the man says he fell and injured himself;
but as he is in a semi-conscious state, he
really does not know what did occur. He
was struck with a club or a piece of iron
just above the right temple, causing in
flammation above theeye. He was also badlv
bruised on the side of the body, probably
bv kicks which he received after being
knocked down. Kinney knows he had
some money with him, which is missing,
but does not remember being with or meet
ing anybody on the road alter leaving here.
IMAGINES HIMSELF A MAGNATE.
A Demented Ola Gentleman Tries to Build
a Ttnllrond Through His Farm.
Beaver Falls, May 2a Special To
day the two sons of a well-to-do old German
farmer, George Fetzgar, who lives a few
miles near this place, have requested that a
Commissioner in Lunacy be appointed to
inquire into the nental condition of their
father, who imagines he is a railroad mag
nate, and who is trying to build a railroad
through his farm. He not only had a gang
of laborers come on the farm excavating
through a field, but took a pick and worked
himself almost to death. They convinced
the men that their father did not know
what he was-doing and they left, but the
old man continued. He has destroyed a
meadow and ruiued a wheat field.

KlTTANNINO, May 28. Special The
Ford City Plate Glass Company's manage

the supply ot natural gas has been short,
and recently they started a well at Kongh's
Mill, about five miles from that place.
Late last night, when the drill was pene
trating the fifth sand, a tremendous flow
was struck. To-day experts estimate the
pressure at 1,700 pounds, onq of the largest
gas wells ever brought in. For the fifth
sand to be so prolific in gas is a thing un
heard of. The well will immediately be
piped to the glass works.

bombs, chemicals and apparatus for the con
struction of infernal machines are in the
hands of the police. His career, was cut
short just in time to save the soda water ap
paratus establishment of Lippincott & Co.,
on Filbert street, above Ninth, where he
was employed, from total annihilation.
Alfred's, 37 years of life have been de
voted entirely to experiments; he never at
tempted to create any terrible catastro
phes, and his study of the art ot dynamiting
has but just reached completion. And now,
with the probability of leaving behind him
a name as famous "as that of Spies or of
Parsons, he has been nipped in the bud by
the law.
Hoffman is a tall, blonde German, with a
light mustache and a stoop. He appeared
at the residence of Ferdinand Schenck, on
Cherry street, below Broad, on March 1,
and engaged a room upon the third floor.
With Him he had a large black satchel.
"This bag contains glassware; handle it
gingerly," he warned Mr. Schenck, who ac
cordingly bore it carcfuly to the apartment
of his new lodger. A few days later the
dynamiter arrived to take possession.
Afraid of Annihilation.
"Where is my satchel?" was His first re
mark. "In your room," said Mr! Schenck.
"Did you stand it on its end or on its
side?"
"On Its end," responded Schenck.
The dynamiter dropped in a heap upon
the floor. "Mr God!" he shrieked, r'do
you want to kill us all?" Then he pulled
himself together and with faltering steps
approached his door. "If Idle reme.mber
you will be responsible for my death!" he
saidr portentously. He crept into the
room, and, spying the satchel, emitted a
shout of joy. "Safe! Safe!" he yelled.
From that day forward he never referred, to
this incident except with a pallid visage
and a trembling voice.
During the three weeks that he lodged
with the Schenck family he was employed
at Lippincott & Co.'s worfes, and from this
establishment it is claimed by Mrs. S:henck
that he purloined in laree quantities such
tools antf brass work as he needed in his ex
periments. He developed a- great liking
for his good landlady aud took her into his
confidence, inlorming her under promise of
inviolable secrecy that he proposed to blow
up the establishment of the Lippincotts, be
cause they did not treat him with proper
consideration.

He further informed her that he.occupied
his leisure time in the construction of
bombs and "hell machines," and he even

white substance that was evidently dyna

ployers had refused to give him 5100, at
which harsh treatment he had naturally be
come incensed.
The dynamiter's greatest p:ece of work at
the Schenck residence n as a burglar alarm
which he constructed for his apaitment
He had intended going out of town for a few
davs, and, as his door was void of a lock, he
built, for the protection of his property, an
infernal machine, so arranged that an in
truder's foot upon his floor would cause a
terrific explosion. Upon the completion of
the delicate mechanism he visited Edward
Muller, a shoemaker, who occupies the first
floor, and gleefully narrated his ingenious
scheme.
"But," said Muller. "won't the explo
sion injure the house?"
-"Topple it right over," siid Hoffman,
with a fiendish chuckle, "but I'll be out of
the citv safe enough."
Well," exclaimed Muller. "I'll be right
here on this door! Take that thing down,
or I'll break your back."
The dynamiter, with many sneers at the
selfishness of his friends, accordingly was
obliged to demolish his splendid achieve
ment An Annrchlst All the Tlmt
Toward the end of Match Hanson broke
his arm. His injuries were treated at Jef
ferson Hospital, and, after recovering, he
removed to 1200 Tree street, where, upon
information lurnisneti by his former land
lord, he was arrested by Special Officer
Nevins yesterday. A search of his room
revealed a niotely assortment of socialistic
newspapers, chemicals, photographs ot
famous Anarchists, and brasswork that had
probably once formed a part of the stock of
the Lippincott firm. At his hearing before
Magistrate Pole he proudly declared that
he was a Socialist
"I hate been a" member of our General
Assembly three years to my joy and six to
my sorrow," he enigmatically remarked.
He said 'that his chemicals and powders
were merely used in various experiments
he had been conducting.
"To what "end?" asked the Magistrate.
The dynamiter frowned portentously, but
made no reply, lie was committed to Moy
amensing Prison for a further hearing
.May 3L
Late in the day Officer Nevins and Detec
tive R. J. McKentv visited the house on
Tree street, which is occupied by the Brad
ley family, who deal in groceries. More
chemicals, brasswork, papers and letters, a
bomb and an infernal machine were found.
The bomb was made in the usual maimer,' a
piece of lead nipc. corked at each end. The
infernal machine was a biack tin affair, re
sembling greatly an ordinary hand satchel.
A Fortune for Osienlntr the utche.
Detective McKenty carried these articles
to City Hall, and deiived considerable
amusement from the remarks of Captain
Miller and the detective c irps. Not a man
could De found who would' undertake to
open the satchel for less than $20,000.
A singular trait of the dynamiter was
the number of residences he occupied. Be
sides the Cherry and Tree street 'houses, In
both of which were found portipns of his
property yesterday, he had a room at Mrs.
Aimsch's mansion in McGuffin's court, a
cheerful little byway between Cherry and
Vine streets. Here "were found an empty
satchel and alifc-sized bust of August Spies,
the Chicazo Anarchist, whose family tree
boasts a "bus. per. colL," after .his name.
Among the portraits of great men in Hoff
man's collection were those of Parsons,
Fielding and Lingg.
CHARLES 'GAYLEB IS H0 KOBE,
Death of tho Veteran Playwrleht, who

New Yokk, May 28. Sptcial Charles
Gayler, the veteran playwright, who has
been ill- with Bright's disease for several
weeks, died 'at the icsidence of, his sister,
Mrs. Kuowles, in Brooklyn fo-day. Mr.
Gayler, who was or.e ot the most prolific
playwriters of his generation, was born in
Oliver street; this city, April 10, 1820. He
went o Ohio in 183a He began by teach
ing school at, Dayton, and then took up the
study of; the' law. ,He practiced on the
grand circuit with Abraham Lincoln. When
Henry Clay was up for President, Mr. gay
ler took the stump for , him. Two of 'tis
sons, William C. and Frank, are theatrical
manatrers.
In 1849 Mr.-Gayler madea his debut as
Samlet in the National .Theater, Cincinnati,
and shortly afterward liis first play, 'The
Gold Hunters," was produced lu'lhe same

of-the dayrand it made'a big hit -Sir. Gay

tary ot the Republican National Commit
tee, supplemented this statement a few
hours later with the reniark, gleefully
made, that the situation was unchanged,
which meant that Blaine had returned to
Washington leaving his friends assured
that he would take no steps toward adding
anythingto his letter.of February 7to Gen
eral Clarkson.
After the departure of Secretary of State
and Mrs. Blaine, Mr. Piatt, Mr. Fassettand
General Clarkson had a long talk at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel, which was resumed in
the evening at the Plaza Hotel. This con
sultation lasted until late, and was stated
to have resulted in the formation of a
plan of campaign. It "was learned
to-day that when Blaine sat for his photo
graph on Friday, 20 different negatives in
as many positions were taken." All these
portraits have been copyrighted, and many
of them are expected, to be on exhibition at
Minneapolis.
General Clarkson has intimated that
Thomas B. Reed, of Maine, may be chosen
Temporary Chairman of the convention,
while it is" considered possible that Gov
ernor McKinley, of Ohio, will be Perma
nent Chairman."
INGERSOLL FOR GRESHAM.
Be Thinks Rial no ilolds the Kay to th Sit
uation, bnt Doesn't Want the Nomina
tion Mile to Dietatn Harrison's Succes
sion, oat Kot Friendly to the President.
Chicago. May 28. Colonel Robert G.
Ingersoll, who is in the city on legal busi
ness, gave this evening, to a reporter, an
expression of his views upon the present
political situation. He declared himself to
be in favor of the nomination of Gresham
and expressed the belief that Harrison, if
nominated, cannot be elected. The Colonel
added :
I suppose that Mr. Blaine can bo nomi
nated if he wants to he. but Jndclng him as
an ordinary man, I supnose we will be Justi
fied in eayincr that he does not really want
the nomination himself. But I do think he
does not want Harrison to have It I think:
he will take It if it is necessary to piovent
the nomination of Harrison, hut the prob
ability Is that some other man may he se
lected. Why should thU desire to
prevent Harrison's nomination exist?
Well, I take It for granted tbat
they are not very good friends. I
base my opinion on what has been pub
lished as havimr come from the Harrison
sti)e.- I think thnt Blaine can be nominated
ifhedesiies to be, but the probability is
that he has selected, or that his irlend
havo selected, somo other man In case the
friends of Blaine do not snzeest his namo to
tho convention. My opinion fs Just this,
that Blaine is master of the sitnntlon: that
he can have Harrison nominated If he wants
to: that ho can defeat him If he wants to,
ana I think he wants to.
Colonel Ingersoll said he considered
Blaine strong-r as a candidate for the nomi
nation than as the nominee of the party.
He continued:
While he has more friends In the party
th.ui any othur man In It, he has also a ;jood
many enemies. I think the strnnaest man
the nno who would seenre the lamest fol
lowing is Jndze Gieshtm. I think he
wonlri aet more votes tli.m any man tne Re
publican party could nominate, for the rea
son that all the tailoring people, the nssoc a
tionsiind unions fee! that he sympathize)
n Itli them to this extent, thnt ho knows
and feels thit laborls not receiving its just
share, ami that he sympathizes with them
In every leasonnble effort that they have 4
nuiuu Mr mo iiiauiiii ur uetiui tucir con
dition. And lor I hat reason I think lie
uould train a larger vote than any other
man that could be nominated by the Repub
lican party.
Let me say with reiard to tlie President,
thnt I think his administration hai been a
falily good one. lam not ohjectlni to him
on any personal grounds, whatever, but I do
not believe in the second term for anybody.
Another objection I linVo Is that I don't bo
lieve Hiriison can he elected. There is a
f;ooa deal ot oppoitt on to him In Colorado,
n Montana, In WnshlnRton and in Nevada,
and we cannot alToril to lose any Status next
Xovember.
BLAINE'S LAST LETTER WBITTEH
Says Mr. Mltllken, U ho Dre'nres the Sec
retary Will Purely Accept.
"Washutotox, May 28. "Blaine will
accept the Republican nomination if it is
offered to him. I am satisfied of it. I have
substantial reasons for thinking so which I
am not at liberty to make public at
present." The speaker was'Representative
Milliken, of Maine, and his words had
reference to the Presidental situation.
There are few, if. any, men 1n public life
who can speak with more intelligence about
Mr. Blaine that Mr. Milliken. The two
gentlemen have been intimafe friends for
many years, and during that time Mr. Milli
ken has shared the Secretary's confidence to
j a degree not usually possessed by the lat-
ter's friends. His emphatic indorsement of
the declaration thnt Blaine would accept if
nominated may be accepted as an indication
that he, too, is fully satisfied that Blaine
will carry the party standard In the coming
campaign if the honor of a nomination be
given him.
"You may be certain of one thing," said
Mr. Milliken. "Mr. Blaine will write no
more letters. He has written the last letter
he will ever write so far as the Presidency
is concerned, and he will be nominated at
Minneapolis. Of that I have no doubt.
Will he make an effort to prevent this?
No, he will not raise his hand to prevent
his friends taking any action they may
deem advisable. There are many reasons
why Blaine ought to be nominate!. It is
sufficient, however, to mention but two of
them: First, the sentiment of'the country
is overwhelmingly favorable to him, and in
saying this I"mean that he is closer to the
hearts ot the people than any other liviug
American: second, we must nominate a man
who can win, and we can win with Blaine."

THREATS OF DANGER
To Both Political Parties Made by the
Free Silver leaders.
REPUBLICANS- BOLDLY WARNED
That the flection May Ee in Poubt and
Thrown Into the Honse,
WHEN THE DEMOCRATS W0DLD C0XQDEE
rrr.ojr A staff comtESPOVDENT.;
"WASHiJfGTOX, May 28. "T!ie Repub
lican National Convention will adopt a
liberal silver plank in the party platform,
or there will be trouble in half a dozen Re
publican States of the West," said Senator
Stewart, of Nevada, to me to-day. "While,"
he continned, "the Democrats of the East
are no more favorably disposed toward
silver than the Republicans, those of the
South and West are differently disposed, and
the Democratic Convention would declare for
free coinage tfere it not for the great State
of New York, whose financial feeliug is
dominated by Wall street.
"Therefore, if the Republican platform
does not give the most liberal utterance on
the silver question that could be expected
of it, no one need be surprised to see several
of the Western Republican States fall into
the Democratic column. Or, if the Demo
cratic Convention shows itself specially
illiberal and cowardly, and the third
party pronounce boldly in favor of free
coinage, nothing would be more natural
than that these States should support the
ticKet ot that combined People s and Alli
ance party, which certainly embodies more
of the substance and promise of a successful
new party than any of the movements , of
recent years which have resulted from the
discontent bred of the pinching policy of
the money-lending monopolists of the.East
Increased Coinage of Silver Demanded.
"What that great element of the country
in both parties would have the Democratic
and Republican conventions do is to adopt
filanks in 'their platforms which will at
east promise forthe representatives of the
parties in Congress that they shall enact a
law providing foe a specific coinage of silver,
which will increase the circulating medium
of the country to something near what is
needed tor the easy transaction of the coun
try's business, and not leave every borrower
at the mercy of.the usurious sharks ot Wall
street who" control the price of money
throughout the length and breadth of the
land. .
"Possibly we cannot expect a declaration
of either party (or free coinage. I know
that many members of Congress who are
not opposed to free coinage have assisted to
defeat the bill in the House, and are against
any radical declarations in the conventions,
merely because they think they might lose
a few votes by any other but a cowardly
policy. We want a plank which will at
least advocate a larger coinage of silver
than ever before, and that such coinage
shall not be left optional with the Secre
tary of the Treasury."
All o( Them Thinking Alike.
The sentiments of Mr. Stewart are shared
by all of the free coinage Republicans, who
represent a great region of Republican
majorities in the West, and they are echoed
Dy the free silver Democrats, who declare
that if the Democratic convention pursues a
cowardly policy the anti-money-monopoly
elementot the country ill" even eo so far
as to organize a new" party on that vital
issue and others embodying the intense
feeling of the discontented masses against
both of the old parties which have for vears
been giving the millionaires nil and the
masses nothing in the way of advantageous
legislation.
Of course, the Republicans would sutler
bv any independent action that would carry a
Republican State or States. No matter
how many Democntie States might be car
ried by the allied discontented elements.-Jf
neither the Republican nor the Democratic
electors were found to be in a majority at
the election, the present House ot Repre
sentatives would choose the President. . In
case the Republicans failed of a majority,
the Democrats need not care whether they
have a majority or not.
Leaders All Around Are Worried.
The silver cjuestion is causing the leaders
of both of the old parties an immense
amount of anxiety. It is possible this may
be heightened before the Republican con
vention bv the passage ot the Stewart free
coinage bill by the Senate next week. Many
of the free coinage Senators urge a speedy
vote.
"Senatorial courtesy," that antique
formality which has permitted scores of
good and great measures to be talked to
death, is all that stands in the way. It is
doubtful if a majority can be got to support
a movement to set aside this musty prece
dent, but it is probable the attempt will be
made. At any rate, the, agitation of the
question will impel the conventions to han
dle the silver question with vastly increased
solicitude.
The.SlIver Convention Adjonms.
Washington, May 28. The delegates
to the silver convention met again this
morning and discussed the question ot rais
ing funds. Several large contributions and
pledges from Colorado and other Statc3
were received to meet immediate needs.
It is proposed to publish a nenspaper at
irregular intervals in the interest ot Tree
coinage. After the " further discussion of
routine and administrative matters, and a
short closing address of encouragement and
congratulation by General Warner the con
vention adjourned sine die.
