The anti-administration men charged that a number of persons who were not properly accredited delegates, had been given seats. An order was made to Issue new cards of admission and to see that only genuine delegates receive them. When the committee on credentials reported, it was found that 456 delegates were accredited to Colorado. 146 to Wyoming and that other States had scarcely 100. Colorado’s representation was later cut down to S96, It being stated that the first firures were an error In addition. It developed that all Colorado's accredited delegates, whether present or not, had been counted, while in the case of other States, only those present were allowed to vote.

June 19—Guatemala has one thousand men employed In building fortifications at the port of Ocos and is making that point the strongest fortified port In all Central America, according to the statement of R.

Mr. Sol states that the Government of Guatemala has pressed all the la borers obtainable to work on the for tifications and that as a result it is difficult to move the launches, barges and small boats that operate along tho coast Fortifications are being erected not alone on the coast cities, but deep trenches are being built and machine guns and cannons are mounted along the frontier at Ocos. CADET RAMEL FAILED TO CATCH ROPE AND SANK. WASHINGTON, June 19.—A dis patch at the treasury department to day from Captain Reynolds, command ing the revenue cutter Chase, which is now at Yorktown, Va., reporting the drowning at sea on June 17, of Cadet George R. Ratnel. who fell overboard from the quarter deck rail, and did not catch the life bouy or rope that were thrown within his reach. The life fooat was immediately cleared away, but Cadet Ramel sank when 8t reached within a few feet of him and he did not rise to the surface again. Ramel was appointed a cadet in the United States revenue cutter service September 17. 1906. from New York, and was 24 years old. This is the first case of drowning or, indeed, of seri ous’accident to a cadet since the es tabiisment of the cadet service thirty years ago. PRESIDENT DUPONT GUERRY. IS IN ATHENS ON BUSINESS President DuPont Guerry, of Wes leyan College, will leave this morning for Athens, where he goes in the in terest of the college. President Guer ry spends the summer in the interest of Wesleyan and so far this summer he has been meeting with much suc cess. pulleys of civilization and have been made to do the world's rough work. It shall be the problem of educated men in this century to spiritualize these material things that they may work for alf and not for a few. “The stir in our world politics that is felt in every American town and county, the earnest striving among educated men and women for distri buting justice. Is an instinctive at tempt to spiritualize tho gross herit age of the nineteen the entury. The new reformation is world wide; It is a quickening; of conscience, a war against greed and for the legislation and establishment of kindness on the earth—the kindness that makes hap piness. “If our free schools and our col leges and universities do not teach man the economic value of kindness, then these institutions merely turn upon soeietv each year, a horde of arme£ vandals to work for the des truction of society. Western civili zation Is In just as much danger from the vandals In high hats as it Is from the Huns in red shirts. For the van dals and the Huns are equally ignor ant of God's basic law of kindness. And their presence in the world makes men who would be happy by being kind and generous and helpful, in the routine or ordinary business, like men who roam unarmed in a savage wood, and pay with their lives theprice of the broad humanity. The school that does not teach its students the duty of man to man that does not implant deeply in its graduates a working wisdom in fundamental human law of kindness, instead of being a blessing that school is a curse upon any peo ple. “The education that does not teach self reliance, that makes men flabby usage to the right os he sees it. still has he more culture more of Heaven's own refinement than if he has a yard of schoolastic letters tacked after his name. For if there is anything in fhe brotherhood of man, the fatherhood of God is needed to prove tho brother hood. And if there be a human kin ship. there is implied some hereditary spark, call it conscience, imrtinct, reve lation, racial vision, or what you will which Implies a broad democracy wherein at some small point men are equals. Education, if it bo worthy of the name, should bo the bellows that make- the divine spark within each soul glow into a torch to light his fel lows. But too often our schools and colleges turn out nothing more con siderable than good citizens. Your good citizen obeys the laws, conforms to tho amenities, worships whatever God there be, and lets it go at that. He does not get under the load of the world and lift. He is a dummy direc tor who fails to realize that he is » partner In the unjustice* of this life. He does not see that until he turns out to the caucuses and primaries and conventions and -mass meetings and makes his protest felt, the thieves that inhabit tho Jericho road will keep right on assailing the weak robbing the poor and threatening the welfare of society. If he has a light it is not only hidden under a bushel, but the bushel is nailed down and cleated to the floor. One of the curses of this country is the large class of so-called ‘good-citizens’ who. because they have book learning and well fitting clothes, are looked tii’on as leaders. Better is a Government of stable boys following islncerely and se riously the light God gives them than council of ‘good citizens’ adoring yesterday and afraid of nothing so much as the dawn of tomorrow.

D. Haywood, secured a ruling under which a number of the denun ciatory articles published in the Min ers' Magazine, official organ of the Western Federation of Miners, will be admitted in evidence. To Justice Goddard himself, fell the task of telling the story of the finding and preservation of the bomb with which Orchard tried to kill him. His appearance added to the dramatic scenes and situations that have char acterized the trial. His testimony was clear • and minutely comprehensive. The veteran Colorado Jurist testified that the first information that he re ceived about the bomb came to him from Orchard's confession, which was shown to him at Denver, February 13. 1906, by Detective McPartland. He at once returned to his home, and in the gate discovered the screw eye which Orchard said he placed there. It was rusted and corroded by ten months ex posure. The witness said he examin ed the ground outside the gate where Orchard said he placed the bomb, and found a slight depression with the soil packed around it. Bomb Was Dug Up. Besides confirming Orchard’s recital as to time, movements and locations, she testified that she found lead and wood shavings in Orchard’s room and a screw eye, string and bottle attach ed to tho closet door where Orchard had been experimenting. She said her lodger had a very heavy suit case and that she thought he was an in ventor. John L. Stearns, agent at Denver, for the Mutual Life Insurance Co- confirmed the story Orchard told about securing employment as a solicitor for the company before he went to Can yon City to kill former Governor Peabody, and produced letters of re commendation which Orchard furnish ed in response to his request. Pettibone Was Jocular. One of the letters was from Geo. Pettibone. a co-defendant of Hay wood, and it made jocular reference to the fact that Stearns was taking many agents from him, and request ed in future when any of his agents applied for work they be put out on tho side walk. Another letter was signed by Horace N. Hawkins, partner of Attorney Richardson of the defense, and it gave Orchard then traveling under the name of Thomas Hogan, a strong recommendation as.40 charac ter. The defense objected to the letters, but the court permitted their intro duction. Rawley Harris, a young man who worked for Roach, the plumber, who made the lead casing for the Pea" body bomb, told of the call of Harry Orchard at Roach’s shop in Denver in May, 1905, of the making of the cas ing and of the delivery of the article to Orchard, whom the witness iden tified. The morning session was spent in securing the admissibility of the edi torials which the State offered yes terday. Each side took the Chicago Anarchist case as Its legal side and justification, the defense pleading that the legal prosecution varied, the prose cution that they were on all-fours.
