LicuUnar.t Hob.-on, hero cf the Merrlmac and champion Accican osculating expert, arrived nerj yasterday and was given a warm we:con:e. At 3 a reception was given In th? rotunda. of the Drown Palace hot? attenaeil oy no ItFS than r.uou people. There was n-j kiFSinc. The committee iiaving the affair in charge decided that this feature of Litutsnant Hobs.'n's re ception in the east should be omitteJ and the gallant ol'ieer heartily seconded the decision. Arrangements were made to prevent the tu-cess of any attempts by enthusiastic damsels, but they were unnecessary. Though more than 1.000 women were prtsent to greet Hobso:: not one offered to kiss him. He di livered his lecture at the Tabor Opera House and later boarded tho Cnion Pa. eifie train for San Franise. When asked about recent newspaper criticisms of his kissing he said: "In regard ta th?se er:t:eisms of my actions 1 have nothing to deny or nothing to take La-.k. I wish to jay. however, that I desira to bear a'.l the responsibility No one else must be blamed. I recog nized rurely the patriotic tnthusiasnf of these women and gitls in kissing them Understand me, though. I do not w:p.h that they be charged with any v.ror. Most of them were srhool girls. They were in a frame or mind that was prompted by purely patriotic motives I saw and reecgnized their patriotism purely and simply just like any other man in my position would have cyr.e.

About fifty of the leading members of the Silver Democratic rarty of Iowa he.'l a con ference in this city. While no dt finite resolutions were passed declaring the principles cf the party as they have been changed to meet new conditions. an understanding was reached cs to the issues upon which the party will unite and which will doubtless be incorporated in the next state platform. Brif-lly summed up the declarations accsptahl-? to a majority of these in the onfer ence, were r.s follows: The party is opposed to f-.tsicn with any other party. The party ia unani mously in favor of bimetallism, but tho !uesti..n cf ratio will not be give-ii prominence. The Chlcaga platform may be indorsed but there should be no repetition of the words '16 to 1." Th Srec nbaeks should not be-retired. Th placing of the national currency in the hands of private corporations or r:a tional banks is bitterly opposed. The formation of trusts is condemned. T.ie policy of imperialism, or of expansion, and the annexation of Cuba and Porio Rico is unad vsaiil. The standing army must not he In creased as is contemplated in the Hull bill. The present army is sutlieient for ail the nocos of tho gov-Tnm :nt. TIi-j liquor traltic in iova can best be con trolled by the enactment of a local op tion law, the ciupstion of a license o complete prohibition being determined by each couniy.
