Odell of the Republican com mittee said concerning the alleged plot to as-assinate President McKinley: “I have read the account in a New York paper with reference to an alleged plot to assassinate the president and also as to the part which I am supposed to have taken iu the matter. I have nothing to say upon the subject except that I have made an investigation which I started with the state committee detective on the line of what I supposed to be politi cal information and I discovered either a crank or a Baron Munchausen, and on the principle that an ounce of preven tion is worth a pound of curl, it is prob able that my report to Secretary Dick is the cause for the extra care now being taken of the president.

Train With $3,000,000 on Board Wrecked Near Philadelphia. Philadelphia, July 11.—According to officials of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad a deliberate attempt to wreck the Washington express bearing $3,000,- 000 to the subtreasury iu New York came near being successful at Folsom, a short distance outside of this city. The train consisted of two sleepers, two day coaches and three baggage cars and left Washington at 11:30 o’clock last night. It was due here at 3:10 o’clock this morning. While going at a good rate of speed, it ran into an open switch at Folsom. The engine was overturned and three baggage cars were derailed, but no one was injured. An examination of the switch by the railroad men disclosed the fact that the switch had been tampered with, for the apparent purpose of wrecking the train. Whether it was done with the intention of wrecking the express bearing the cur-- rency could only be conjectured. The railroad officials have placed detectives on the case and have offered a reward of $500 for the arrest and conviction of those tampering with the switch.

POINTS OF THE PLATFORM. Synopsis of the Leading Issues of the Campaign. Kansas City, July 6.—Following are the principal points of the Democratic platform: Reaffirmation of allegiance to the con stitution. Government not based on the consent of the governed is tyranny. Porto Rican law enacted by the Re publican congress is denounced, «as it taxes, without representation, people who were pledged to honest treatment. Prompt fulfillment of our promises to the Cuban people is demanded that the raid of the carpet-buaggers may be cut- short. Policy of the present administration in the Philippines is condemned and de- nouuced because it puts the United States in the false and un-American po sition of crushing with military force the efforts of former allies to achieve liberty and self government. Favors election of United States sena tors by the people. Opposes government by injunction, denounces the black list and favors ar bitration. Recommends that congress create a department of labor in charge of a sec retary with a seat in the cabinet. Insists on the reduction and speedy repeal of the war taxes and a return to the time honored Democratic policy of strict economy in governmental expend itures. Demands the continuance and strict enforcement of the Cliinse exclusion law and itsapplicalion to the same classes of all Asiatic races. Favors the immediate construction, ownership and control of the Nicaragua canal by the United States, and de nounces the insincerity of the plank in the national Republican platform for an isthmian canal iu the face of the failure of the Republican party to pass the bill pending in congress. Views with indignation the purpose of England to overwhelm with force the South African republics, and speaking for the entire American nation except its Republican officeholders, and for all freemen everywhere, it extends our sympaties to the heroic burghers in their nneqnal struggle to maintain their lib erty and independence. A strict maintenance of the Monroe doctrine is demanded as necessary to prevent extension of European author ity on this continent and as essential to our supremacy in American affairs. Condemns the Dingley tariff as a trust breeding measure, skilfully devised to give the few favors which they do not desire, and to place upon the many bur dens which they should not bear. Opposes militarism, as it means con quest abroad aud intimidation and op pression at home. It means the strong arm which has ever been fatal to free institutions. It is what 'millions of our citizens have fled from iu Europe. Private monopolies are designated as indefensible and intolerable, as they de stroy competition, control the price of all material and of the finished product, thus robbing both producer and con sumer: and lessen the employment of labor and arbitrarily fix the terms and conditions thereof aud deprive individ ual energy and small capital of their op portunity for betterment. The principles of the national Demo cratic platform adopted at Chicago in 1896 are reaffirmed aud indorsed and the demand of that platform for an Ameri can financial system made by the Amer ican people themselves, who shall re store and maintain a bemetallic price level, as part of such system the imme diate restoration of the free and unlim ited coinage of silver and gold at the present legal ratio of 16 to 1 without waiting for the aid or consent of any other nation, is reiterated.

Che Foo, July 10. — Refugees who have arrived from Tien Tsin bring the following information: “The Chinese resumed the bombard ment of the foreign quarter last Tues day and noncambatants were ordered to leave.

Three companies of Japanese infantry, a mountain battery and a body of Rus sians engaged the Chinese artillerists, but with little effect. The 12-pounder of the British first class cruiser Terrible then came into action, but the enemy placed two shells fairly under the gun, damaging the carriage and wounding the crew. The gun was withdrawn and replaced by a French gun, which had a similar experience, a shell bursting in the midst of it. Distributed In Germany.
