St. Louis, Mo., July 6.-—The Anti- Parkerites have shot another bolt and have missed the mark. There are some among them who yet refuse to believe it, but the end seems inevitable, and the assurances that Parker will be nominated, perhaps on the first ballot, are of a most powerful character. The vice presidency the platform and the permanent chairman are under consideration this morning at the Parker headquarters. Ex-Senator Turner, of Washington, \yas the most discussed man for second place today, but many believe that the nomination will go to Wisconsin, Indiana, or Illinois. Talk about the permanent chairman reverts to Senator Bailey, of Texas. "At dawn on July 4 in a dense fog the enem.v appeared north and south of our position and also made a frontal attack. The guards artillery, posted northwest of Fenchu pass, was able to check the frontal attack, while squadrons of the Fifteenth cavalry and nine battalions of the Thirteenth and Fifteenth regiments of the Second brigade checked the enemy's progress, retiring in the meanwhile in the hope that a flanking movement then in operation would be successful should the enemy continue its advance on our retreating A Fourth of July Fight.

St. Louis, July 6.—Under a great arched canopy of yellow cloth, ribbed and fringed in white, the Democratic hosts of the nation assembled today in convention. The convention was called to order about 12 o'clock. U. B. Hill headed the New York delegation, which entered the hall and took seats without being noticed by the crowd. Upon the apjDearance of William J. Bryan, leading the Nebraska delegation, the crowd gave a lusty cheer. Prayer was offered by the Rev. John Cannon. The temporary chairman, John Sharp Williams, was then introduced and began his speech, which was received with enthusiasm. Mr. Williams indulged in keen sarcasm of President Roosevelt's praise of Eilhu Root, and characterized Former Secretary Root's speech in praise of the president as "a fine piece of egotism." The speaker said, "If the ideals of the people find best expression in the Republican party then God save us." Taking up the matter of the trusts, Williams asserted that the Republicans had not done what they claimed to have done to curtail the power of the trusts. He ridiculed Attorney General Knox and said that a more ridiculous piece of official impotency does not exist than the interstate commerce commission. He pointed out that the Republican platform cunningly conceals special legislation, namely the ship subsidy. The speaker denounced in strong terms the Republican plank which spoke of discrimination In the elective franchise in the south. Concluding, he said that the keynote of the Democratic administration would be economy. BRENNAN & ROBERTS, At Boston—Brooklyn, 3; Boston, 7. Jones Bergen; Willis, Needham.
