MORTON'S NOMINATION PROBABLE. rrnncli Hendricks Likely to Win the Con teit for 8ecund I'lace Sixth Annual Convention of the Young Meu'l Lenuun, of Nw York. SArtATOOA, N. Y., Sept. IS. The He nubllcnn state convention convened here this mornlug, anil unless the hard work being done by candldntes lms a very great effect on the situation the Republican state ticket will read like this: For gov ernor, Levi P. Morton; lor lieutenant gov ernor, Francis Hendricks for Judge of the court of appeals. Albert S. Knight. As to Mr. Morton's chances the sentiment seems not n bit changed by the active strife for llcutvnnnt Governor, and Mr. Piatt, who Is himself manager for the Morton boom, Is perfectly confident and smiling. He said this morning: "The arrival of mnuy delegations this morning has only (.erved to strengthen the cause of Mr. Morton. Many of the leaders of delega tions not Instructed for Mr. Morton have assured mo of their support." Asked If he had anv preference of lieutenant gov- ernor. he said: "I have tiono, nnd I will not Interfere with It In nny way." Tliera is not much Jubilation In Mr. Fnssett's auarters, although ho is still a candidate for governor and will be placed in nomination before the convention Messrs. Woodford, Dutterfleld and Rus sell are still In the fray, and sny they In tend to stay Until a nomination is made, Things have takenja very different turn for those Interested In the candidacy of the various men for lieutenant gevernor. Francis Hendricks, of Syracuse, has an nounced that he Is a candidate for the office. It Is almost certain at this tlnio that Hendricks will be the nominee for lieutenant governor. It Is said the booms for Senators Veddars and Coggeshall were simply run to keep Mr. Saxton from re celvlng too many votes. For Lieuteuaut governor, Senator Cog- cembali says he has Oneida with 10, Ot sego, 6; Schohorle, 7; Madison, 0, nnd pnrt of Cortland, some from Kings aud some from New York: in nil about fifty-four otes. Two new candidates for lieuten ant governor were announced, Gorton W Allen, of (Jayuga, and senator Liogge- shnll, The Republican stnte committee met last evening nnd transacted very little business excepting the naming of n tem porary chairman. For this position Mr. Uellamy, of few lork, nominated the Hon. Lemuel L. tluigg, of Aew York, He was unanimously named. The Mllhollund faction of New xork without making any comments, filed with the clerk of the committee a notice of a contest of nil the New York olty dis tricts. The Mllhollnnd contest was es tablished by a unanimous vote, nnd so disposed of finally. The choice for permnnent chairman of the convention lies between r-euntor nr- ncr Miller nnd Genernl Uenjnmln Trncey. It it also believed that If Mr. Miller is selected ns chairman General Tracey will present the name of Mr. Mor ton to the convention, Mr. Depew having had to decline the houor. It is further said that William Sullivan, of Roohester, will bo chairman of the committeo on credentials, and Congressman Paine will be chairman of the committee on resolu Hons. An unlooked for element In the canvass of the candidates for nominations in tho Republlcnn convention developed when A. G. Vamcalck, chalrmno of the stato cemmlttee of the American Protective association arrived here. RErUllLIOAN CI.UUS. The Sixth Aunnnl Convention of the Yinin J Men's League of New York Saiiatoqa.

'I M 1)11 A Natural Food Tint Doss Not Require Digestion. THE W"AY IT IS DONE. How Mixing: With Fruit Adds Digests Food Before it Is Even Taken Into the Mouth. Xntural foods nre ns n rule lusoluabfcsi They must be dissolved belore they can be absorbed. Digestion Is tho dissolving of food In our month, stomach nnd Intestines. It is done by special ferments prepared by special organs. A great deal of energy Is used up In digestion. 'Well people can spare the energy, sick people ennuot. People who have not sufficient energy suffer from In digestion. It is plain that Paskola, which la an nrtlQcally digested food, will save a sick person n great denl of energy. tVrttnctal digestion is the dissolving of food outside the body by the same fer ments thnt dissolve It inside the body. Paskola Is a fattening food made of grains nnd fruit thnt has been digested in this way. It also aids In the digestion of other food. Sick people need nil their energy to get well. They should take Paskoln. Thin people spend their energy In business or other cares and worry. Pnskoln will make them fat without giving their digestive organs nny work. Paskoln is an ideal natural fattening food. It is more. It is a natural tonic food that does not crente fnlse new energy hut helps you to husband what you have.

A dispatch frmn Seoul says n Feat battle I1R1 been fought at I'liig Yaug between the Chiuesv and Japanese truorm. In which the Chinese were utterlv njttted. The Chinese loss It estimated nt 2,300 killed, wounded and taken prisoner. Among those captured by the Japanese ore several nf the Chinese commanding officers, Including General Tso Fuujt, oouimander lu chief ot the Manclturlau unity, who was severely wounded. The Japanese loss is only thirty killed-and 870 wounded, including eleven ofllceM. Most of the casualties among the Japanese occurred during the first day's fighting, and very few were the result of the night attack. The Japanese forces nre In nctlvo pur suit of the fugitives, who hnve thrown away their arms aud readily yield them selves prisoners. A dusultory war may be carried on for some time to come, but unless China shall succeed tn getting another nrmy Into tho peninsula Corea will undoubtedly remain in possession of tho Japanese. On Thursday a Japanese column from ong-Sau made n reconnolssance In force, drawing the fire of the Chiueso forts, nnd thus ascertained their position. The column then fell back In good order, with little loss. Iiy Friday night all the Jap aueso were in position for a combined at tacK upon the enemy. The battle was opened on Saturday at daybreak by o apanese caunoade of the Chinese works. which was continued without cessation until afternoon, the Chiueso responding. Atnbouta 0 clock a body of Infantry was throw n forward by tho Japaueso, and maintained n rifle lire upon tho enemy un til dusk. Throughout tho day only tho roug bau column was engaged. Tho Chinese defences had feullered greatly, but tho losses on either side were smnll, both the Chinese and Japanese having taken advantage of nil the shelter avail able. The Japanese troops, however, had gained some advanced positions. The fir ing oontiuued at intervals daring the night, and, in the nicautitne two Japa nese flanking columns had formed a cor don around the Chinese. At 3 o'clock lu the morning an attack wn8 made by severl of tho Japanese col umns simultaneously and with admir ably precision. The Chinese lines, which were so strong in front, were round to be weak in the rear, and hero tho nttnek was n perfect sucess. Tho Chinese wero com pletely taken by surprise, and wero thrown Into n panic. Hundreds were cut down, ond those who escaped death, flud- ing themselves surrounded nt oyery point, broke and fled. Half an hour titter tho attack was opened the position at Ping xangwasin possession of the Japanese. It Is estimated that 10,000 Chinese soldiers wero engaged In the battle. The Japan ese captured immeno stores of provisions. munitions ot war, and hundrods ol col ors. Washington, Sept. 18.
