GREAT ADVANTAGE TO FARMERS.
American Government to Establish a
Biological Survey.
Washington, June 17. The secretary
of agriculture will establish a depart
ment on July 1 to be called the biologi
cal survey. The result is expected to be
a tremendous economic advantage. Ag
riculturists, horticulturists and stock
raisers are to be given charts showing
the exact position of each state and
territory where certain animals and
vegetables can be advantageously rais
ed. Those will be supplemented by a
large catalogue containing every land
animal and vegetable 'of the world, and
Indicating the areas In which they may
be raised or cultivated by Americans.
Millions of dollars are thrown away
each year by farmers and other pro
ducers who plant seed In the wrong soil
or climate, or who undertake to breed
animals where the atmosphere and food
resource Is uncongenial. An efficient
corps of naturalists connected with the
biologieai Muwy wJll make a detailed
survey of the whole country, counting
and classifying the living species found
In each county of each state and terri
tory. They will also note the condi
tions of climate, altitude and soil, will
note how far1 each condition Influences
the distribution of the species. The
chief of the new survey will be Dr. C.
Hart Merrlam. A survey of the entire
country will be made and charts will
then be published showing the exact
location of the various species. No
other country in the world has ever In
tituted a survey of this kind.

NO CANDIDATE YET.
(Concluded from Page l.J
the) evidence that Mr. Addlcks and hit
partners in Delaware were highway
men on the way to political fortune, no
matter what was the result (cheers).
and as a rebuke to the Addlcks men
and to carry out the Intention which the
United States tried to carry out. We
seat Mr. Dupont in this convention as
a delegate from Delaware." (Loud ap
plause.)
The other side of the question was
supported by Mr. Hepburn, of Iowa,
who spoke for the majority of the com
mittee on credentials. He appealed to
the convention for fairness.
'Here," he said, speaking of those
contested cases, "is the astonishing
spectacle in view of all the traditions
of the party of a Republican national
convention trampling under its feet,
ruthlessly, remorselessly the doctrines
of equity and justice to which the Re
publican party has pledged Itself dur
ing all the years of its eventful exist
ence." (Applause.)
Mr. Hepburn spoke contemptuously
of some person who had denied Mr. Ad-
dicks' "Republicanism," describing
him as "a little gentleman," quite volu
blehe might almost say volatile
where Intellectual proportions were In
exact ratio to the geographic lines of
his state." (Laughter.) That gentle
man was the only person who had as
serted that the Addlcks delegates were
not Republicans.
Whom would Mr. Higglns represent?
The people of Delaware, who said they
would not have Mr. Higglns, or the ma
jority of the committee on credentials,
who said that he was to have the. seat?
Mr. Grosvenor, of Ohio, spoke in reft
erence to the Texas case, civlngMts his
tory, and claiming that the Grant dele
gates (whom are McKinley men) were
entitled to the Beat. - .
He congratulated the last speaker-
Mr. Hepburn as being the advocate of
the biggest scoundrel who ever walked
the earth meaning Cuney. (Cheers
and laughter.)
The vote was first taken on the Dela
ware case, those favoring Addlcks vot
ing aye, and those opposed no. The noes
were declared to have It and the minor
ity report on the Delaware case was
rejected. A similar result with even
greater emphasis awaited the minority
report as to Texas; also thnt portion of
the minority report referring the other
contests bnck to the committee, the
minority report In each case being over
whelmingly defeated. The majority re
port was adopted amid cheers.
General Harry Bingham, of Pennsyl
vania, chairman of the committee on
rules, read the report of the committee.
The rules recommended were identical
with those heretofore In force. Among
the changes Indian territory was given
six votes instead of two and Alaska
four votes Instead of two. The report
was adopted.
Mr. Grovesnor moved to adjourn till
10 o'clock tomorrow and an equal num
ber of ayes and noes was raised. The
chairman declared In favor of the ayes
and at 6.07 p. m. the convention ad
journed accordingly.
FOR VICE-PRESIDENT.
Vote Will Be Almost Unanimous for
Morton if His Name Is Presented.
St. Louis, June 17. It Is probable that
on the first ballot for vice president the
24 votes of Virginia will be cast solidly
for General James A. Walker as a com
pliment to that distinguished hero of
the confederacy. After that has been
done It is claimed the vote will be al
most unanimous for Mr. Morton if his
name is placed in nomination. With
Mr. Morton not a candidate, Mr. Ho
bart, of New Jersey, is expected to get
about 20 of the 24 votes. The Ohio dele
gation has held no caucus on the vice
presidential question and none will be
held. Koch member will be permitted
to vote as he pleases. Mr. Hanna has
no wish in the matter and positively
declines to intimate what he would like
to sue done. It was given out at the
Ohio headquarters tonight that Mr.
Hanna considered every pledge kept
and every Instruction obeyed when the
delegates should cast their vote for
William McKinley for president of the
United States. Efforts have been made
to secure some intimation from Mr.
Hanna as to what his ideas are with
respect to the nomination of a running
mate, but to all comers Mr. Hanna is
discreetly silent. It is admitted at the
Ohio headquarters that between 18 and
20 of the 46 votes of that state will be
cast for Mr. Morton for vice president.
The remainder will probably be divided
equally between Mr. Hobart and Mr.
Evans.
There was an informal conference of
leading members of the Nebraska dele
gation tonight to consider the desira
bility of holding a caucus on the vice-
presidential nomination. The decision
reached was that each delegate should
be permitted to exercise his own prefer
ence In the convention and that no at
tempt should be made to bind the dele
gates to any one candidate. John L,
Webster, chairman of the delegation,
said later: "I do not think that Gov
ernor Morton will get a single vote from
Nebraska. Some of our people are for
General Hobart and others for Henry
Clay Evans. The latter, I think, is the
favorite."
It was reported about the hotels to
night that word had gone out from the
McKinley headquarters that General
Hobart had been definitely agreed upon
as the Ohio man's running mate, and
while people close to Mr. Hanna denied
that this was a fact it was noticeable
that many of the McKinley people In
different delegations, notably Illinois,
who had hitherto been silent concern
ing the second place on the ticket, were
advocating the New Jersey man't
claims. Friends of H. Clay Evans, of
Tennessee, were emphatic in their dec
larations that the McKinley managers
would express no preference, but would
allow their delegates to manifest their
own proclivities unfettered. An eastern
politician who has gauged the pulse of
many of the delegations said at 10 p.
m.: "It looks to me that General Ho
bart is as far away from the goal as
Governor Morton. I think it will be a
free-for-all race tomorrow."
REPRESENTATION SCHEME.
Will Be Reported to the Committee
on Rules Today.
St. Louis, June 17. The new scheme
for representation at the national con
ventlon which the national committee
declined to act owing to th near ap
proach of the close of its ofilclal life, was
taken up tonight by a. subcommittee
of the committee on rules, and ordered
to be favorably reported to the full com
mittee tomorrow night ' The favorable
report prevailing by a vote of Ave to one,
with one member of the sub-committee
absent.
The report will provide for the future
representation at the Republican con
ventions based upon the vote east in
each district for the electoral ticket at
the preceding election each district to
have at least one delegate and each
state four at large. The number of
delegates to the convention la Increased
to nineteen hundred which gives one
delegate for each seven thousand Re
publican vots polled. This scheme also
contemplated the fixing of tbe ratio of
representation by the convention for
each succeeding one. The details of
this proposition are Identical with that
submitted to the national committee,
but constructed on somewhat different
lines.
M'KINLEY IS NERVOUS.
The Strain of Suspense Is Manifested
in His Eyes.
Canton, Ohio, June 17. An animated
and enthusiastic gathering of news
paper people and friends, mostly ladles
who came In to sit with Mrs. McKinley,
received and discussed the convention
bulletins received today at Major Mc
Kinley's residence. The major waa
outwardly calm and gracious as usuul,
but the natural strain upon him, inci
dent to the situation at times mani
fested Itself In his eyes, the only ex
pression he gave of the nervous ten
sion of which he was strung.
The question of most Interest was
as to the time the nomination would be
made, today or tomorrow, and opinions
pro and con, were freely given by all
present. But all that the one moat In
terested would say was that St. Louis
ought to have the convention at least
three days. The popular sentiment of
the people of the town was for a day
light nomination.
MISS CHUB0DA WILL RESIGN.
Cannot Bring Herself to TenchTem
pcrunce Physiology.
New York, June 17. Miss Caroline S.
Chudoba,.an assistant teacher In gram
mar school No. 52, .at Courtlandt ave
nue and One Hundred and Fifty-sev
enth street, will send her resignation to
the board of education tomorrow be
cause her religion will not permit her
to teach temperance physiology.
The teacher Is a Christian Scientist,
and was satisfied with her work until
last February, when alcohol lessons
were Introduced as a part of the curri
culum, and she was obliged to teach
the children about diseases which, ac
cording to her religion, do not exist.
Miss Chudoba says that the teaching
about the alcoholic diseases Induces the
children to think they have the diseases
and that the children will acquire a
taste for whisky from reading of Its ef
fects. The family of Miss Chudoba are
opposed to the course she has taken.
CHINA'S LATEST SCOURGE.
Terrible Famine in Tonkin Owing to
II nd Harvests.
San Francisco, June 17 A terrible
famine which tllreatens to plunge the
most prosperous portion of Tonkin, .1
China, Into the direst misery for many J
years is desolating the country. .Thf
harvest has been a failure and the naT
tives throughout the whole of the coun
try are in a most miserable condition.
In Hanoi, the other day, a mother of
fered her three Infants for eight cents,
preferring to hand them over to a Euro
pean, rather than see them perish from
hunger In her arms. Inhabitants emi
grate from the country en masse to the
cities to beg for sustenance, while many
others are going about pillaging and
perpetrating acts of the grossest vio
lence. Several cases of cholera are re
ported from the provinces where the
famine has been felt most severely.
FIRE INA MINE.
Coal Is Burning in No. 8 Slope at
Stockton.
Wllkes-Barre, Pa., June 17. A fire
broke out In No. 8 slope at Stockton
tonight and In less than an hour the
timber work and the coal was burning
fiercely. Every effort Is being made to
subdue the flames, which are difficult to
reach. Fears are entertained that the
fire will extend to the Laurel Hill mine
adjoining and In this event much dam
age will be done.
The slope was recently purchased by
the Lehigh. Valley Coal company from
Llnderman and Skeer. The machinery
was taken out of the mine some time
ago and this makes It difficult for the
firemen to use hose and water to any
advantage. The origin of the fire is
as yet not known.
VERMONT FOR GOLD.
The Resolutions Passed at State
Convention Yesterday.
Burlington, Vt, June'17. The Repub
lican state convention met here today
and nominated a state ticket headed by
Mayor Joslah Grant, of Derby, for gov
ernor. The financial plank of the plat
form is as follows:
We denounce and condemn the attempt
to establish the free and unlimited coin
are of silver as destructive to the best in
terests of the people and if successful sure
to Injure and to debase the credit of this
country.
We demand currency that shall be worth
a hundred cents on the dollar throughout
the civilized world, and we pledge our
selves to do all In our power to prevent the
Issue by the government of any other.

An Effort Is Made to Give Him a
Boom as Presidential Candidate.
Little Rock, Ark., June 17. The Dem
ocratic state convention convened In
this city today and Colonel Dan W.
Jones, of Little Hock, was nominated
for governor without opposition. A
stubborn contest took place over the
adoption of a resolution endorsing
Bland, of Missouri, for president.
The call of the roll developed that the
"apostle of silver" hud a majority of
the delegates favorable to his candi
dacy, but the necessary two-thirds In
order to suspend the rules for the con
sideration of the resolution was not
forthcoming.

nor has ordered the First regiment, Ore
gon National Guards, to Astoria to pre
serve the peace among the striking

the cannery men, so the governor was
called on for assistance.

SILVER MEN TO RETIRE
Concluded from Page L ,
tion of the tariff law of 1890. which had
been popularly credited to Mr. McKin
ley, and said that while the members
of the committee discharged the duties
entrusted to them faithfully, it was not
true that any one man on earth had
prepared as much of the measure as Mr.
McKinley. but that his Ideas and spirit
dominated everything in connection
with the bill when the sub-committees
were preparing the schedules and be
fore they were submitted to Mr. McKin
ley, who led In all the discussion with
the same rare ability which enabled
him also, when it was taken into the
house, to pass it through that body
without amendment. Such statements
as Senator Teller made, Mr. Lafollette
continued, were an injustice to Mr. Mc
Kinley. They had been continually re
peated and it was time now that the
country should be acquainted with the
real facts connected with the formation
of the bill which bore Major McKln
ley's name.
MR. LAFOLLETTE'S AMENDMENT.
Mr. Lafollette then, addressing him
self specifically to the money plank,
moved to amend the last section by
striking out the words "now In circu
lation." so that It should read that "all
our silver and paper currency must be
maintained at a parity with gold," etc.
Mr. Lafollete argued In support of his
amendment that a wrong construction
might be placed upon the plank as It
stood. He feared that It might be con
strued ns a pledge to contract the cir
culating mediums so that no more sil
ver should be coined pr paper currency
be Issued. It would hurt the Republi
can party In states where It would be
hard pressed, although It would make
no difference in his own state of Wis
consin. ' . i'i '
Mr. Lodge, of Massachusetts, op
posed the amendment. He did not
Wished to be placed In the position of
encouraging any further coinage of sil
ver by ihe government. Arguments in
a similar strain were made by Mr. Mer
rlam, of Minnesota, and Mr. Patter
son, of Illinois.
Mr. Gear, of Iowa, and Mr. Brewer,
of Michigan, supported the amendment.
The chairman, Mr. Foraker, of Ohio,
agreed with Mr. Lafollette that the
words should be stricken out and this
was accordingly done. The vote on trie
adoption of the gold plank as amended
was then ordered and It passed yeas,
40; nays. It. The negative vote was
cast by the foregoing silver men, who
favored the Teller substitute, with the
addition of the member from Okla
homa. The discussion on the remainder
of the platform was general, but of no
special Interest, und It was adopted
without division, a number of the silver
men having already absented them
selves from the meeting.
SENATOR CARTER WII.li .STAT.
Senator Carter, of Montana; Is no
longer one of the five Insurgent sena
tors. His associates, Senators Teller,
Dubois end Cannon, made plain their
positions before the resolutions com
mittee, and what course Senators Car
ter and Mantle would pursue has been
a matter of general Interest. The for
mer this afternoon notified the silver
men that he could not go with them and
that If they bolted and left the conven
tion and the Repbllcan party they must
do so without him. Mr. Mantle has not
yet notified his colleagues to the same
effect, but will probably do so tomor
row. "lf
