N'r.w Yiikk people who aie iuterested in
the submarine boat now building for the
navy iu lialtiuioru wish to know whether tho
Navy Department will authorize tho con
struction of another craft of liko type.
This does not seem probable, although tho
matter diponds entirely upon the results
attained with the boat now under way.
Most naval officers have little faith in this
type of war craft. Tho foreign submarine
boats are operated without much accident,
and there is no reason, theoretically, why
the American craft, an admittedly superior
boat of its type, should not bo a success.
Whether it will have tho tactical value

that a boat navigating under water, out of
sight of au enemy, wonld he capable of doing
more damage than a more .powerful boat, tho
movements of which wero known to tho
antagonist. Tho latest naval appropriation
act allows the Seeietary of tho Navy to havo
ibliilt two more tubmariiio boats if the
'lialtiuioru one proves satisfactory. If it shall

1 . THE EASTERN QUESTION.
4 Tho situation in Creto is said to be very
criticl and the Sick Man of Europe needs to
V.li'o doctored up again to prevent his kingdom
. Ij-oin going to pieces, The Turkish empire is
tottering, and disorders iu some part or other
of it are of dally occurrence, aud, were it
not for tho jealousies of the great powers of
Europe it would luivo been dismembered ore
this. Tho troubles in Crete, liko thoso in
Anatolia, are due to religious persecution of
tho Christians hy the Mohammedans, which,
if not incited hy the governor of tho island,
were winked at. Unlike thu Armenians tho
Cretans wore able to offer considerable resis
tance and. actively aided by the Greeks,
aroused such opposition that tho Porto was
forced to recall the Mohammedan governor
.mil renlaco him with a Christian. Tho
imitation has, however, grown to such pro
portions, und the Greeks are fermenting it so
that it is probablo tho active Intervention of
tho great powers will ho necessary to quiet it,
nd if this Is long deferred It may luvolvo all
Europe. In ono form or other tho Eastern
question has kept Europe apprehensive for
fifty year's and will likely coutinuo to do io
until tho Turk and his miserable pretense of
a government is driven out or fcuropo
entirely. Ho Is entirely out of place thero
and his religious fanaticism is not iu accord
with the spirit of this enlightened age, an 1

POTTSVILLE LETTER. j
Lengthy Arguments frequent In the I.yon-
Dilliu Contest.
1'oT-rsvn.r.E, July lo.
Mr. WhitekouM! caused some surprise
yostorday in the Lyon-Dunn contest by at
tempting to divert the proceedings into an
inquiry as to bribery, lie asKcu a witness u
he had been oll'ered, or had received, any
money to work and vote for Judge Lyon and
supplemented the question with a statement to
the court mat .Hiiigo i.you may not navo
oflVied any monoy, and he did not think ho
did, hut ho could prove hy two witnesses that
the witness on tho stand was ollercd f 100 to
work for Lyon. The question was stricken
out.
Mr. Uercer stated that Inasmuch as court
will adjourn after this week until tho uiiddlo
of Auirust. the contestant wished to get hold
of as many voting and ballot check lists as
possible, winch were locked up in llio ballot
boxes. For this reason subpoenas have been
Issued for the Judgos of Election of soveral
districts so as to provo tho boxes. Ho also
said that they desirod to do this on Friday,
and asked that KUuo township witnesses bo
discharged from their subpoenas. Court
made the ordor and then adjourned until 10
this liiorninu.
Tills morning Mr. Merger said he was ready
to call their witnesses and Jacob C. Metis,
Judge of Election of tho Second ward of
Ash and. was called to show that tho ballot
and voting check lists had not lieen returned
to the rrothonotary's otlicc as required ny
law, but that they wore scaled up in tho
ballot box.
Mr. haleu argued that tho fact of contes
tant's desire to obtain tho naners is not sulll-
cient authority for the opening of tho ballot
boxes, as sucii is oxorcislim tho Highest pre
rogative and should ho resorted to only when
absolutely necessary.
Mr. SchalcK also protested against this
mode of procedure and Mr. Whalen quoted
from tho Act of May 1893. in reference to
the registry list and said that tho original
registry list is as good and oven better evi
dence than the lists which tho contestant
desires to ohtain from tho Imllot boxes.
Court asked a question whether it would
not bo well to rely on tho word of counsel,
This brought Mr. Kchalck to his feet and ho
said that this case must ho tried Just liko any
other trial and emphatically objected to re
lying on tho word of counsel for tho othor
side.
Mr. Whalen said that tho contestant
wanted the lists so as to prepare ad
ditlonal bills of particulars during tho vaca
tion and to present them when court con-
venos in August or September, and again in
sisted that tho best evidence of registration
was the original registry hook. Right hero
Mr. Whitehouso said to court that for his ar
gument ho would ask court a question, which
was, Are your Honors trying a ease,
getting one ready for trial ?"
Mr. Whalen said that contestant had at
tached 120 election districts out of 113 in the
county. Tho court overruled tho objection
and dnei'ted that tho ballot box be brought
in and opened, to ascertain whether tho
affidavits of non-registered votes were in thu
box and to havo them placed in their proper
place in the I'rothonotary's ofllcc. Tho box
of the 2nd ward of Ashland was hronght in
and identified by Mr. Met., and the papers
were found.
Mr. licrcor wanted to havo the box opened
in order to find any other papers that ought
by law to bo on roconl. Tins was not auoweu
and court said tho box should ho opened aud
diucted the Jitugo ot r.lcction to take out
the affidavits of new registered voters. This
was dono aud Mr. Iicrgor, spying somo Elec
tion officers' oaths in the pile of papers,
wanted to have them put un record. Court
overruled this offer.
.1. H. Pritchard was next called. He sail
he was Judge of Election of tho Fourth ward
of Ashland. That he placed tho allidavita of
non-registered voters iu tho bag and took it
hunie, along with tho box, aud gavo tuo box
to the collectors when they came for it, hut
retained tho hag. Ho said the reason ho
kept it was that at tho time thero was no
Justice of tho Peace to keep it and ho was
diiected by Mr. Rent?, to tako rare of it. At
11:30 a. m. the box of that ward was brought
in aud witness identified it.

Tho demonstration that irrecU'd Mr.
Kussoll from the platform wos submerged
Iwnouth tho storm of cheers that grootod
tho appearance on tho stjigo of William J.
Urvun. "the hoy orator of tho Plntto,"
whoso'sturusa presidential possibility had
for twenty-four hours 1nrned brightly on
tho convention's horizon. Ho had been
cnllod for mora from tho lieginnlng of tho
convention than nny other man, with the
solitary exception of Hill.
More than half the men woro standing.
nnd tho nlr was full of nowspnpers and
hits. Four times tho npplnuso seemed to
havo spent Itself, and each time it nwo
ngiiln with the roll of an advancing
wave. Bryan stood with a Bnillo playing
on his fnco, mid mi uplifted arm, waiting
foTslloueo. Hownslnfaco and flnuro a
Roman on tho stage tho likeness of ono
stopped from the trnglo stago.
Kven tho attention given to Tillman and
HIU did not ominl tho breathless eager
ness with which tho thousands peered for
ward to catch tho first sentonce of this
young man whom many westerners ap
praise as their foremost orator. They wero
not dlsuppolnted. Ho spoko doprocatlngly
of himself. "But." ha added, "the hum
bloat citizen In the land when clad In tho
armor of rlghtoousnoss, Is stronger than
oil tho hosts of error." This struck a key
note which sounded to tho rafters and
thereof tor tho sllverltcs sent up yell after
joll of tho deepest delight after every
striking period.
The Nebrushii Orator Introduced.
The cnusa of silver, ho doclared, win tho
cause of liberty, of humanity; therefore,
h dctrrocaled any denunciation of Presi
dent Clovelaud, liocauso tho issue was not
to 1x3 brought down to tho level of a tier-
souallty. To tho complaint of tho east
that tho silver men would not discuss the
question ho replied that tho convention
was assembled merely to render a judg
ment ordered by tho plain iiooplo. Hut
greatest of all was tho enthusiasm In
spired by his comparisons of business
men, culminating with tho comparison of
tho men who went down a thousand foot
into a nilno and him who in a back room
cornerod tho money of tho world.
"Wo lira lighting In defense of our
homes, our llrosldos and our families,"
procoodod Bryan, as the assemblage ro.i
for anothiT wild demonstration. "Our
Itltlous havo lieen scornod, but now we
huvo no lxstltlons to offer, for wo are
strong In our might and wo defy them.
They ask us if a Robespierre will arise. No,
Instead of that tho people need an Audrow
Jackson, to do as Jackson did In resisting
encroachments against tho people.
Turning to tho Income tax question Mr.
Bryan declared that It was not uncoil
stltutlonal until ono judge had changed
his mind, and tho great economic prin
ciple- of an Income tax could not rest upon
tho chongoof mind of iihlnglo judge. Con
cerning the banks, ho said they claimed
thut the government should go out of the
governing business, but ho answerod with
Joucrson that tho lialiks should go out ot
tho governing business. Tho speaker
paused for n moment us If to closo, when
from all sides caniu snouts ot go on
go on."
"Tho Republicans havo nominated nt
St. Louis William MoKlnley, of Ohio,"
Mr. Bryan proceeded. "He Is tho man
who used to boast that ho looked Hko Nn
poloon."
There was halt a minute or derisive
aughter, and then tho spoukcr continued:
Yes, tney nominated mm on tho anniver
sary ot tno Duttie ot Waterloo, unu in
eadv wo can hear with distinctness tho
KMitlng of tho waves on the shores of bt.

The American tuition wasublo to legis
late on ever)' question, without tho aid or
advice of any other nation on tho glolw.
On such an lssuo, mado In this platform,
tho Democratic party would carry any

referred to thomerciless domination of tho
gold power in tho past, and added t "Hut I
warn them they snail not cruelly tno Upnio-
cratio party on a cross of gold.
Htartlug of llryatfri Iloom.
The conclusion of Mr. Bryan's speech
was marked by tno most outmisiastio
demonstration of tho convention up to
thut time. Tho whole convention sprang
to its feet, und twenty thirasand throats
roared while twice twenty thousand arms
waved frantically. ' Handkerchiefs und
flans flow wildly. Hats wero hurled aloft.
Umbrellas wero waved. Men shouted
like maniacs. From every quarter of tho
hall cnino tho hoarse roar. Suddenly a
momlier of tho Texas delegation uprooted
tho banner of the Lono Stur.stato mid car
ried It to whore stood tho standard of
Nobraska. Above tho roar rose plorclng
shrioks, which sounded Hko a valley of
slogo guns above the continuous ruttio of
ton thousand small urins. Othor delegates
grospod tho staffs of their delegations and
pushed their way to tno Piourasua ueioga-
tlon.
Soon tho staffs of two-thirds of tho states
woro grouped auoui tno purpio stan
dard of Bryun's state. Only tho standards
of Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts,
Mnlno, Mlnuesota, New York, New Jer
sey. Now Hampshire, Vermont, South Da
kota, Rhode Island und Pennsylvania
woro left standing when tho demonstration
was at Its height. Moautlnio tho awful
roar from tho gallorles continued, Tho
liand played, but tho muslo could not bo
hoard above tho Nlagara-llko tumult of
sound. Delegates fairly jumpod for Joy.
Somo of them took possession of tho aislos
and marched Suddenly tho stato stan
dards clustered at Nebraska wero borno
away In single file through tho aisles of
tho ult.
Whon In the uproar tho procession of
bunuers bearing tho numosof tho dlfforont
states was started thero was a rush of No
braska mon for tho Illinois delegation
Tho Illinois standard was torn loose and
n delegate started oil with It. Before ho
had gone ten feet Governor Altgeld saw
him aud ordorod tho standard brought
baok. "You cannot stampedo us," ho
coolly said. "Wohavedoolarod for Bland."
Tho banner was replaced.
A moment later the banner of Missouri
oppourod in tho line. "Now you can take
it," said Governor Altgeld, "Missouri is
in lino nnd I guoss wo can afford to join."
Then turning to tho dolegatos who sur
rounded Mm tho govornor said: "That wag
tho greatest sixtoch over made. I hod
rather bo able to make that speech than be
prosldont. Common mon are somotlmos
mado presidents, but It takes tulout and
bralua to talk llk that."
The 'In in lilt Mlhildcs.
After flf teen minutes of this turlmlenco
tho crowds sank bank exhausted. When
nil woro sen tod Delogtito Hutilsbury, of
Delaware, climbed back on his chair. He
nnd his three Hilvor colleagues In that
state gavo three choers for Hrynn, which
wero answered with a shout from tho gal
lery of "What's the innttor with Uryuii
for president?" Tho rcrlplont of all this
honor nindo his way with dtlllcillty from
tho stage. Kor ton minutes his friends
had fairly smothered him with congratu
lations. When at last ho reached his chnlr
on tho floor ho leaned back seemingly
oxhaustod. Ono of his colleagues fanned
him while the others of tho delegation
hung affectionately over htm and wrung
his hand.
Tho transaction of buslncs was started
ngaln by Senator Hill, of Now York, but
uoti without considerable dlllloulty. The
Benntor fought his wny down tho alslo to
ward tho platform and thon appealed to a
tall policeman who cleared tho space and
enabled tho Now York statesman to innko
tho formal motion for tho minority report
from tho committee on resolutions. Tho
convention voted tho previous question,
nnd thon tho clerk road tho substitute for
tho platform's financial plonk. Tho oyos
on tho question wero not loud, but tho
noes gave a groat shout, whoroupon hona-
otor Hill, with uplifted hand, domaudod
tho coll of stutos.
In behalf of Alabumo Chairman Bank-
head announced that but for tho unit mlo
flvo delegates would vote for the substi

In Russell's lieholf, onothor dolegoto

Tho irreat movement for bimetallism, tho
