The fact that tho democraticparty has in Its national deliverances of unitypolicy arraved Itself on llio side of tliu dilnfcmakers aud sellers by declaring against thopolicy of prohibition of such tralllo under tliofalse name ot "sumptuary laws," aud when Inpower In broiiciif the states In ionising remediallegislation and In congress of refusing to per-mit tho creation of a board ot Inquiry to

A motion was made to adopt all tho remain-in- g

Tho clerk having read tho remaining sec-tions of tho platform, a motion was mado forthe previous quctlon, but It was voted down.Then u motion was mado to strlko out of thothird section, all .personal allusion to Mr.Blaltio and Mr. Logan. This ro)osttlon ledto a discussion, lu which Mr. Jleaney.ot'llll-nols- ,

Tho previous question was then ordered onnil sections of the platform not previouslyacted on, and tho ptatform as a whole wasadopted, amid cheers.

Tho platform Is now to bo submlttod for re-vision and to a coramltteo ,of tbreowho are not to modify it In any muterlulseii'c.

itcsolutions In favor of a tax on Incomes andof woman suffrage were offered and refusedto the committee on resolutions.

The quest ton between Dr. Mlucr'spropositlonnndMKs Wlllurd's was taken umhl much ex-citement, uud resulted lui to lfHj In tho suc-cess of tho former. Tho iiamo of tho party,thcrclorc, Is to bu "the prohibition party."

The convention then (at 030 p. ra.) took arecess till S this evening.

Thollrsthourandii half of thoevcnlmi session was spent in an amusing clfort on thepart oftho finance committee to raise n cam-paign fund. The plan adopted was the lssuoof ccrtltlcutcs of stock in what is called thopioneer battle tuud of thu national prohibitionputty, tho holder of each share pledging him-se- lf

to pay ten dollars a year to tho lunil, thodividends to be payable lu heaven. Mr. Chris-tian or Chicago acted as an auctioneer brokerand by his amusing remarks Prdoled tho dele-gates from tho various states to Mibscrlbo lorfrom 1 to 00 shares each, tho whole number ofshares taken aggregating about 100.

Dr. Minor, of Massachusetts, lrom tho com-mittee on resolutions, made n report as to thofinance plank In the platlorm. lie said It hadbeen a matter of doubt, but on n reconsidera-tion It was determined to recommend lu lieuoftho finance plank tho ono ndoptedbythoparty III 187H, and us follows:

Tho separation of tno money of tho govern-ment from nil bunking Institutions: thunational government only should exeteiso tliohigh prerogative of issuing paper money to liepaid on deniaud in gold and silver, tho onlyequal standard of value recognized by thecivilized world.

Alter a discussion in which several delegatestook tlio ground that thu convention shouldconllno Itself to tho simple principle of juolil-tlo-

vthllo others argued that tho proposedplank would attract tlio votes or tlio

A SYRIAN'S SCIENCE.

OPISIOSS OF A I'JIVSIIIAN WHO TiIK.milCHOLERA AT ITS HOME,

Dr. Arbeely, Tnrttlih Uoverameat liijildin,Tells tlio Klory of the Plaguo at Ufjrout --Tlio Kprrlal Dangers Lurking In Rs;s Foot!Which JIust and Jlnst .ot be Kalea.

In pursuit of Information regarding Ita dis-ease that is devastating somo European eltlcland terrifying tho Inhabitants of ctirs,TiiBRepublican became awaro of tho rccsnt ar-

rival lu tho city of an oriental physician whohad chargo of tha city of Bcyrout during thalast cholera epidemic there.

Dr. A. J. Arbeely, formerly of Damascus,Hvrln. but recently practicing at Hot Snrlnm.Ark., was found In his olllce In tho Young Men'sChristian association building, New York ave-nue.

Ho wore tho red fez ft a Turk, ami his ollviskin, let black hair nnd beard, and generallyorlcnfal nppoaranco wero supplemented by avoluminous display of diplomas, soma con-taining thu seal of tho lulo Sultan AbdulAziz. His brother, who received a call to thastate department whllo tho reporter was tberato transtatu u letter received from tho sultan,of Zanzibar, acted as Interpreter when thudoctor's Ideas outran his command of English.Dr. Arbeely's father was the official head oftbo medical profession In Damascus at thistime orthe cholera epidemic In 1819, and thoexperience; then acquired has been transmit-to- o

to Ids nn.He oxplalued tha peculiar condition favor-

able lo tho study of llio disease, as also to Itstprcad, existing In Mahommedan communities,where tho jicoplo, being ull fatalists, refuso totleo even from a deadly epidemic. Thlsal-low- s

"My experience," Dr. Arbcdiynld, after thoprolUso courtesies common to hli.rueu had.been observed toward the reporter woo culled,"lends mo to believe that cholera Is nrtlasimatlo disease. I havo observed that dlflon'a.utmosphcrlu conditions causo great changes' listho number of deaths during nu epidemic.When tho wind has changed the dtscuu hasalways followed, keeping to tho leoward."

"is it, in your opinion, possiuio lurtuu wine,to earry-th- germs oyer tho Atlantic 7"

"NiV.tliat would bo too great n distance. Thoway tho dlscato comes hero is tno samo nywhich It enters Europe, chiefly by means ofthoragslraiiortod. Most of those sent uwuyfrom oriental cities nro gathered in the strco'.swhcruallgurbogols thrown. During a cnol-er- a

epidemic thssso rags are In most easesused aud applied tu every Imaginable purpose)In which contact and sotltire with Infectiousmatter Is Involved. They aro thus packed,rccklngwltuitltiuiiuncroffUth, aud shippeditway, carrying the most certain Infection, nndIn tho surest means of its preservation. Thofirst thing that should bo dono to keep cholera,out Is to establish a most rigid qiiarantlnoagainst rags, whether shipped From an Aslatlaportoruol."

" What does your expcrlenco show to ho thobest preventive when tlio disease is threatenedor present inn cuyr '

"Our Syrian Proverb Is a nrcttycood prescription. Knits: 'two-thir- J of bravery con-sists In running away.' The nuxt thing Is foethe government to disperse the dense imputa-tions of cities either threatened or attacked.I never knew orders to scatter lu Beyrout that;w ere not followed by Improvement. The ef-fects of tho dlscaso will not bo so bad hero aslu Asia, but In tho crowded portions of thegreat cities It will be! very fatal;'

"What parts of .eastern cities docs tho dis-ease prove most fatal In?"

"Tho dirty uiUs, Inhabited by the poor, first.Fruits and vegetables aru always plentifulduring nu epidemic, because the better In-formed peoplo do tiot care to Incur tho dangerof cuting them, und tho poorgorgo oncabbago,cucumbers, und the throo worsearticles of diet in such times bad In tbo order "

"Doctor, what wus your diet when In thomidst of tho disease."

"Milk, little but fresh; coffeo (Cawhn), littlesnnd stroui:: fresh meat, cut un into cubes andbroiled on u skewer, afterward drenched inlemon Juleo or vinegar; eggs, plenty of thorn;rice, tomato Juice, onions, garlic, and water-melon but ice water never.

' What preventives or prophylactics do yourccoinmeiiu r '

"In my pamphlet, written by order of thoporte, I glvo it prescription which Is orderedto lie kept prepared in every Turkish dnurstore, bfct that would not bo suitable for thuconditions here, nor could It bo obtained, IexiH'Ct. Tincture of opium, camphor, nndcardamoos I give In tho beginning, Injectlncchloral hypcrdermlc.illy, in ease of cramps,und placiug leo upon tho abdomen Instead ofgiving leo water.

lowed iny uxumplo In this respect suffered. I,found that carriers of thu dead from thu dbease wero seldom stricken down, nor werethoso who mado examinations hitho Interests of science; so I concluded thut,unlike other Infectious diseases, tho dangerends In death."

"Now doctor, to como back to Washington,what do you think of tho city as u field forcholera t"

"According to my observation, aud I h.ivobeen lu every scctlou of the city, the sanitaryconditions nro such that It would be almostini'iosslble for tbo disease to spread. It maycome, nud I do not see why tho tauio causesshould not control its severity In tho severalparts or tills place, as In eastern cities. TheroIt Is alw ays most fatal, and the cases uro morufrequent in tho g districts than In thohigh grounds, and lu thu luwer lloors of housesthan the top ones."

"Would thu ncrlel flight orthe germs ou Ihowind carry it from Baltimore hero 7"

"I think it would."
