This embodied the proposition to reduce the representation from t;.e sev eral states, giving one delegare for e-h 10,000 votes cast, with four delegate? at large for eac*h state. Then- w- re calls for Mr. Quay to take the platform, bur he shook his head and sent to the clerk ? desk o lengthy statement showing the ef fect of the proposed new rule.

The demand was Immediately taken up by the vast audience and followed by a roar of cheers, Col. Quay moved up to th stage. For several minutes he could not proceed, owing to the demonstration. When order had been restored Mr. Quay suggested that as the statement w is long and w'ould be printed in the afternoon pi pers action upon his proposition, whi Th only affected rules one and twelve, be post poned until to-morrow and that the re mainder of the report is adopted. l*rotc*t From the South. lie backed his suggestion with a mo tion. The motion raided a s-orm of protest from the Southern delegation. Delegates from all the Southern States were on their feet demanding recognition. D i* Mc- Call of Tennessee mounted a chair and amid the plaudits of Ms associates demand the right to be heard before any action was taken upon the Quay am ndm nt. John R.

I(s acts have been estab lished In wisdom and in patriotism, and at home and abroad it has distinctly ele vated and extended the influence of the American nation. Walking untried pa-h and facing unforae*n responsibilities. President McKinley has been in every situation (he true American patriot and the upright statesman, clear in vision, strong in judgment, firm in action, a'- wayfi inspiring and deserving the confi dence of his countrymen. In asking the American people to en dorse this Republican record and to re new th ir commission to (he Republican party, we remind them of the fa t trial the menace to their prosperity has always resMbd in Democratl principles and no less in the general incap \iy of the I>- tn ocratic party to conduct public affairs. The prime essential of business prosperity is public confidence in, tin* good sense of the government and in its ability to deal intelligently wbh each new problem of administration and legislation. That enn fidenco the Democradc party has never earned. It is hopelessly inadequate and the country's prosperity when Democrat ic success at the polls Is announced, halts and cease* in m re anticipation of Dem ocratic blunders and failures. Tlm* Gold Standard. We renew our allegiance to the princi ple of the god standard and declare our confidence In th wisdom of the legislation of the Fifty-sixth Congress by which the parity of all our money and the stability of our currency upon a gold basis has been secured. We recognise that interest rahs are a potent factor in production and business activity, and for the purpose of further equalizing and of further low* ring the rate* of interest, we favor such mon etary legislation as will onattje the vary ing needs of the season and of oil sections to lx* promptly mot In order that trade may b** evenly sustained, labor steadily employed, and commerce enlarged.

However firmly Republican legislation may B<<-m to have s-cured the country against tho peril of case and discredited currency, th* lection of i Democratic I‘resident could r i fall to Impair the country’s credit and to bring once more into question the Intention of the American people to maintain upon the gold standard the parity ol their money circulation.

I: is also a serious clanger to our trade for its sudden withdrawal in the event of a European war would seriously cripple our expanding foreign commerce. The national :* fense and na val efficiency of thi? country, moreover, supply a compelling reason for the legis lation which will enable us to recover our former place among the trade carrying fleets of the world. The pension laws should be liberal and should be liberally administered and pref erence should given wl.erever practi able wi.h respect to employment in the public service to soldiers and sailors and to their widow’s and orphans.

Ha waii and the Philippine I-’ands only (hose whose fitness has been determined by .raining and experience.

In the interest of our expanding commerce we recommend that Congress create a department of commerce, end industries in charge of a secretary, with a seat in the cabinet. Our Foreign \ffnirx. The American government must protect the person and property of every citizen wherever they are wrongfully violated or placed in peril. President McKinley has conducted the foreign affairs of the United States with distinguished credit to the American peo ple. In releasing us from the vexatious conditions of a European alliance for the government of Samoa, his course is es pecially to be commended. By securing to our undivided control, the most im portant island of the Samoan group, and the best labor in the Southern Pacific, every American interest has been safe guarded .

While the American gov ernment must continue the policy pre scribed by Washington, affirmed by every succeeding President, end imposed upon by The Hague treaty, of non-intervention in European controversies, the American people earnestly hope that a way may b# soon found honorable alike to both con tending parties, to terminate the strife between them. We approve the annexation of the Ha waiian Islands to the United States. Cnlm and the Philippine*. In accepting by the treaty of Par 9 the just responsibility of our victories in the Spanish War, the President and the Sen ate won the undoubted approval of the American people. No other course was possible thaVi to destroy Spain’s sovereign ty throughout the Western Indies and in the Philippine Islands. That course cre ated our responsibility before the -rorld and with the unorganized population whom our intervention had freed from Spain, to provide for the matntenan e of law and order, and for the eatabl'sh mer.t of good government and for the performance of international obHjradons. Our autohrity could not be less than our responsibility and wherever sovereign rights were extended it became the high duty of the government to maintain it* authority, to put down armed insurre - tion and to confer the bl<s?-.ftjrf of lib erty and civilization upon all the re.-cu and peoples. The largest measure cf self government were assured ln the same voice by which war was declared and to the letter this pledge shall be performed. It Wna I nanimoualy Adopted.

The demand was seconded by Senator Han?brough of North Dakota and Sec - tor Sewell of New Jersey. The demand was agreed to and the motion then was declared by Chairman Lodge to te unan imously adopted- The announcement of the adoption of the platform was received with enthus iastic cheers.

A lively fist fight between two Texas delegates occurred at 4:30 o'clock, jus after the committee had listened to argu ments from contesting delegates in that state. As the delegates were leaving the com mittee room, W. H. Love, a delegate from McKinney, Tex., accused Walter Burns of having made statements In the commit tee room which were not true. Burns de nied that he had made any such state ments, and Love called him a liar. Burns promptly planted his fist in Love's face with a violence that would have laid Love on the floor had not some bystanders caught him. Burns, after striking the blow, stood quietly watching Love, who was making desperate efforts to break away from the men who were holding him. love had a knife partially drawn from his pocket. “I'm through.’* said Burns, "unless he starts it again.” love was finally hustled tdown the stairs and taken away by his friends. Immediately after this row two negro delegates liegan to make violent threats and warlike demonstrations at each other. This trouble also Involved a question of veracity.

Positive §tand Taken in the Eve ning Journal Ca*e. Springfield. 111.. June 20.—1n the Supreme Court to-day the Associated Press filed an answer to the petition for a mandamus by the New York Evening Journal. The an wer touches practically the same points as that tiled yesterday to the petition of the Denver, Col., Post. The answer recites that the officer* of the corporation are powerless to furnish the service applied for, because under con tract with the other New' York papers unanimous consent is necessary and the Express Publishing Company, which pub lish the New York World, refuses to give its permission. The answer recites that William R. Hearst owns a ■ mtrolling interest in the Star (evening publication) and the Journal Scar Is a mem ber of the Associated Press, and that, a* jeh member, voted it eight shares of stock at the meeting last month against the adoption of a motion providing that the corporation should furnish service to all persons making application. The answer denies that an was made by the Journal for service until May 17. and ch arges that the petition '• not filed in gool faith, but to * mbarr-i8 the Associate 1 Press ar.d to fu ther the interests of the petitioner in its relations with anew corporation in New York as a competitor of the Press ir. Illinois. Objection is mode that if a writ.is grant* ed the contracts with the other newspa pers will be violated and the proprietor* will be released and the Associated Pres* will be liable in damages. To grant the writ, it is claimed, would be a violation of section 10. article 1. Constitution of tha United States the fourteenth amevid ment of the constitution. The answer slates that issuing the writ would involve the rights of the N w York World. New' York Evening Post and New York St i us 7a itung under contracts; that they should have been made parties to the proceeding because of that fact. The Associated Press relies upon the failure lo make these papers parties to the peti tion as a further defense to entry of judgment. , STIR IN COTTON MARKET.
