MADE lll.OCKADi: WHISKY.
A llnndsome Young Woman Sent to Jail
for Moonshlning In Florida.
Pensacola. Fla.. April S3. Mary
Sharp, u handsome young woman, was
sentenced by Judge Swayne, in the
1'nited States court today, to pay a
line of $500 and serve eighteen months
In the penitentiary at Columbus, Ohio.
My the woman's side wus her husband,
William Sharp, who received a similar
sentence.
The couplrt were convicted of Illicit
distilling, huvinir operated in Jackson
county for several years, giving the rev
enue otllcers more trouble than any
other moonshiners In the state.
Mrs. Sharp was the brains of the
combination and by her ability she
Hooded West Florida with blockade
whisky and at the same time eluded
detection. The government has spent
hundreds of dollars trying to secure
evidence to wan-ant the couple's arrest,
but Mrs. Sharp was too shrewd for the
revenue agents.
Once a spy visited her home and be
tng very pretty Mrs. Sharp Induced him
to fall In love with her and'for nearly
a year she made the government's paid
agent dispose of the Illicit liquor made
by her husband and herself.
. Mrs. Sharp's success, however, made
her careless and last January the rev
tnue officers came upon her and her
husband as they were distilling whisky
In a dense swamp.
Mrs. Sharp showed fight. Seizing n
rifle she sent a bullet through one of
fleer, but before she could fire again
the officers took the gun. ThPn she
drew a knife from her bosom and
slashed another officer. .
She has always claimed that she
would have whipped the otllcers If her
husband had aided her. Mrs. Sharp's
latner was an expert shiner and when
she was a little girl she aided him. She
received her sentence stoically. The
couple have no children, but they have
a comfortable fortune accumulated
from the profits of the moonshine In
dustry.

resolution providing for voters to ex
heir nrfrnce for United States
senator at the-primary elections, which
had been killed by the committee. 1 ne
amendment was defeated: Yeas, 72;
nays, 1S5.
At this point Congressman Robinson
started the McKinley boom by offering
as an amendment to the platform, the
resolution to the effect, given above.
Silas W. Tettlt. president of the Phil
adelphia Union league, moved to lay
the amendment on the table.
The yeas and nays were railed, but
before the roll call began Mr. Rob
inson got the lloor on a point of order.
He shook his finger at Mr. Pettlt and
mid that it was very strange that a
gentleman who came Into this conven-
lon na the particular apostle of reform
should be first to . Here the crowd
roke loose and attempted to howl Rob
inson down, and the chair ordered the
roll to be tailed.
Robinson stood In the main aisle with
a howling crowd about him, his right
arm raised trying to make himself
heard. He Insisted that he had the
floor but cries of "Sit down," "Throw
him out," etc.,' drowned his voice. The
lerk wus about to call the roll when
Robinson Insisted that he should not
roreed.
Chairman Mylln made a statement to
the effect that an attack by Robinson
on Pettlt was not a point of order.
After Robinson and Penrose had
spoken on the subject and the conven
tion had rejected the amendment. C. L.
Magee arose and said that with the
declaration of the principles of the plat
form he was In accord, but with the
endorsement of Quay he was not In
accord, and In this he represented his
district, which had voted heavily lit
favor of McKinley.
The adoption of the platform as read
followed. The plank In the platform in
reference to reform was made with a
view to covering the bills presented by
the Philadelphia and Pittsburg con
tingents.
The election of the national dele
gates at large and the presidential
electors was then made.
Kx-County Chairman Isadnr Sobel. of
Erie, placed Samuel A. Davenport In
nomination for congressman-at-large.
The nomination was seconded by
Judge Wallace, of Lawrence. Dele
gate Robertson, of Allegheny, nomi
nated William F. Harrison, of Mc-
Keesport, for this ofllce In an address
that was antagonistic to Senator Quay.
wnen interrupted with a remark that
"Harrison has had enough." Robertson
retorted, "Then your candidate for the
presidency has had more than his share
of public offices."
COLRORN NOMINATES GROW.
A. J. Colborn, Jr., of Lackawanna,
nominated Ualusha A.Grow, of Susque
hanna, tne present incumbent, as the
second candidate for congressman-at-large.
While the vote was being tnken Rob
ertson withdrew the name of Mr. Har
rison, and upon his motion the nomina
tion of Messrs. Davenport and Grow as
the two candidates for eongressmen-at-large'
was made by acclamation.
a motion suspending tne party rules
In order that the' convention could
elect a state chairman was carried, and
Senator Quay was unanimously re
elected to the olllce upon motion of
Silas W. Pettlt.
A resolution offered by Congressman
Plngham, giving the state committee
power to fill any vacancies that may
occur In the list of candidates, was
adapted, and at 5.15 o'clock the con
vention adjourned sine die.
THE PARTY PLATFORM.
Straightforward Declaration In Favor of
Protection, Keeiproeitr and Inter-national
Bimetallism.
Harrlsburg. April 23. The platform
adopted by the Pennsylvania Republi
can convention today Is as follows:
For fidelity to the principles of Republi
canism Pennsylvania holds first rank
among all (he states.. Year after year it
has returned great majorities for the can
didates of that party, with no saltish de
mands for recognition or any oi us own
citizens as a natlonul candidate. The time
has come when the state which has so
lung and faithfully led the Republican
column may Justly and properly submit
its own preference for the Republican
nomination for the presidency. In the
iitsentatlon ot tne Hon. aiauncw stun
ev iinv. the Reouhlicans. not alona of
I'ennxylvania, but Of the entire Union, will
recognize one of their foremost leaders
wise iii counsel and brilliant and able In
action, at once the type of the American
citizen, scholar, soldier and statesman.
First, or an national issues sianus pro
tection and tirst among Its advocates have
been the Republicans of Pennsylvania.
Wo believe in protection as a right to all
American Industries, but as a special fa
vor to none. It should be neither partial,
sectional nor hypocritical; It should be, us
nearly as possible, equal and universal.
We are not pledged to any schedules, but
we demand a restoration oi tne policy oi
protection, and we pledge it as soon as th
Republican party shall be fully restored
to nower in the executive and congres
sional departments of the government, and
It shall be restored equitably to tne lur
mer and the miner, to the manufacturer
and the artisan.
We demand the restoration of that wise
Solicy of reciprocity which was framed by
ames Q. Hliilne, and adopted by the w!?e
anu oenencieni administration oi rresi
dent Harrison, to the great benefit of the
commerce of tho country, and which has
been ubandoned by the present Democrat
ic administration. We approve the policy
of national protection to our ship owners
and the shipbuilding interests by discrim
inating duties in favor of American ship
ping, in order that the American flag be
restored upon the high seas.
FOR NATIONAL CREDIT.
Tho Republican pally lias alwuys llialll
tained the national honor and credit. It
enforced the resumption of specie pay
ments. It kept faith us to every debt cre
ated for the preservation of tho Union,
and has paid the greater part of It in
accordance with the spirit and tho letter
of tho laws, under which it had been con
tracted. It largely reduced the Interest
charges upon the balance of the debt by
refunding at lower rates. It substituted
for the fluctuating and inadequately se
cured notes of tho state banks a uniform
national currency of stable value and of
equal purchasing anil debt paying power.
Faithful to Its record, believing that the
people ure entitled to the use of the best
nionev and anxious to restore ami pre
serve the industrial and commercial pros
perity of the I'nlon, the Republican party
favors International bimetallism, and, un
til that can be established upon a secure
basis, opposes the coinage of silver, except
upon government account, and demands
the maintenance of the existing standard
ot gold value.
There should be no statute of limita
tions against a grateful recognition by the
government of the services and sacri
fices, of the soldiers and sailors who pre
served the Union. We denounce the pres.
ent administration of the pension bu
reau for Its betrayal of the Interests of
these heroes, and its attempt to nullify
existing laws.
We believe In the enactment of such re
strictive legislation, as will admit to our
shores only those immigrants who have
the capacity and desire to become good
American citizens.
We reaffirm the declarations contained
In the state platform of ixr, looking to
neoded reforms in state and municipal
government and to the purification of elec
tions and the exercise of the elective fran
chise. We earnestly recommend to the
consideration of the next legislature the
several reform bills promulgated by the
Republican state committee, and request
the Republicans of both houses to give
them favorable consideration and support
and such other bills as may be Introduced
at the next session of the legislature in
line with the principles of reform.
We reaffirm our declaration In favor of
the state aiding In the Improvement of the
channel of the Delaware river, so that
Pennsylvania may have a free and unotw
structed highway for oommerce as now
'carried by the steamships of the greatest
, draiiKhl, which would enable us to com.
