Mc Kinley in a speech here today upon pub- I lic affairs opened with a eulogistic refer- I .eoe to the administration of President Hartison, under which he said the coun try prospered as it had never prospered before or since. The address was de voted almost wholly to a discussion of the tariff, especially the effect of the democratic tariff law. The governor presented a phase of the law recently passed which was a startling surprise to the audience. The sugar schedule, he said in effect, provides for a continua tion of the treaty of 1875, made with the king of the Hawaiian islands, under which all sugar from the islands was ad mitted free. This provision was inserted by the senate. It gives the sugar trust an advantage which has not heretofore been suspected. The sugar production of the Hawaiian islands is under the control of the sugar trust. That coun try is the lield of its Primary operations. The t-monouratic party took away front the sugar raisers of the Un.'ted States a lhunity of t810,kltH)(0 a year anu be stowed a bounty of 0,tolol~,o5) a year on the sugar producer, of the ilawailan islartls, giving thetu an advantage over] not only the sugar producers of the United States but of the a hole world outride of those lslands.

SARATOGA, Sept. 20.-The Tammany aspirants were thrown into a condition bordering on panic today when the Asso- I ciated Press bulletin announcing that Whitney had declined the nomination t for governor was read. Senator Hill said: "I supposed he would decline to accept." Lieutenant Governor Sheehan said: "The situation now is rather mixed. We have wasted valuable time chasing a shadow." J. D. Crimmins, a personal friend of Whitney, has received a message stating that Whitney declined for personal rea sons. At the headquarters of other candid ates the news caused great rejoicing. The Thatcher people at once began to assert that their candidate would be nominated on the first ballot, and some Tammany people expressed the same be lief. The Buffalo people, on the other hand, asserted that a candidate should be chosen from western New York, and that Lockwood could unite all factions. Adherents of Cook of Rochester also de clared that their man could be named on the first ballot. Senator Hill declined to say he was for any candidate. The report was started that Bourke Cockran would stampede the convention in Hill's favor. Mayor Gilroy said: "I see noth ing but Hill." The Gaynor boom picked up a little, but it is conceded that there is little hope for it. At 11 o'clock it was 11111 or Thatcher, the latter In case Hill refuses to accepti The democratic lead ers are alleged to have decided upon the nomination of John Boyd Thatcher for governor. It is also reported that when the time comes for nominations Thomas F. Grady will declare the "Tigers" call for a tremendously big man, and will thereupon name Senator Hill. The committee on platform for two hours discussed the endorsement of the tariff and the prosposition advanced by Mr. Sheehan to condemn the income tax. Bourke Cockran declared under no circumstshces shall the party endorse the tariff bill as a whole, instead, it should declare for some features. This I caused a long wrangle which continued until the time for the convention to as. Ssemble.
