MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., June 6.—To-day the chances are nine inten that the contest De- tween the Harrison and Blaine forces will be foughttoafinish. It seems that it will be impossible to bring in a third candidate to preserve harmony, as any such attempt would result in the selection of either Har- rison or Blaine on the first ballot. This situation may be changed before Thursday by the interposition of the people athome. Some of the leaders on both sides hope for such aid. They feur that the personal feeling is so intense that the defeated side might not accept the decision with the heartiness that would insure an enthusiastic management ofthe campaign. They recall the historical fact that in the convention of 1844 the fac- tional feeling engendered by the opposition of Webster to Clay led tothe selection of Gen. W. H. Harrison and his triumphant election. They believe this is an exact parallel. There are some who believe that if it is once demonstrated that Harrison cannot be nominated it would be advisable to appeal to the State pride of Indiana now standing in the relation of antagonism to Blaine, as Web- ster dia to Clay. But whoshall be the dark horse, and how can he be introduced? It is certain that Alger cuts no figure here. The friends of McKinley wish to reserve him for the first place four years hence. There is, however, a strong McKinley sentiment bud- ding to-day, and it may burst into full bloom on the floor of the convention. While the famous Ohioan is loyal to Harrison he may fina the tide sweeping his way as Garfield did at Chicago. Asto Sherman. The opinion previals to- day that if New York is left to name the dark horse incase of a deadlock, that Sherman will be their choice. His name creates no enthusiam. Especially among Western dele- gates is he weak. Palmer of Michigan is mentioned, and the farmer delegates speak of Judge Walter Q. Gresham, who has twice been approached by the third party people. It is argued that as Gresham was a successful member of Arthur’s Cabinet, he would have strong back- ing in New York. The convention will not get to work in a hurry. The Credential Committee will have @ good deal to do, and organization is not likely to be effected for two or three days. Meantime the temporary organization will entertain the public while the leaders are planning and waiting for blood to come, The fact that both ‘Warner Millerand Platt of New York are united on Blaine is regarded as significant and it is a potent argument against the nomination of Harrison. Doubt is expressed as to the sincerity of this union, but the fact nevertheless is having weight in influencing delegates to a calmer view of the situation. Chauncey Depew and Murat Halstead, both of whom stand in close personal relations to both candidates, are working to restore a better feeling among factions. They are im- portant factors. Such is the situation in brief. Never before in the history of the Republican party were its leaders so much at sea. And never, it may be as truly said, did the future look so dark. Here is the logical result if the faction war is fought out tothe end. The words are those of one of the most astute leaders in the Re- publican party here: „I this war be continued it will secure Cleveland’s nomination and election.“ IN LINES OF BATTLE. BOTH SIDES CONFIDENT AND STRIVING FOR THE MASTERY. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., June 6.—The opening of the last field day before the convention ands both parties resolute and confident. The arrival of another score of prominent Republican leaders this morning showed about the same division of sentiment as to the preferences for Harrison and Blaine that have prevailed during the past forty-eight hours, so thet neither party can be said to have profited by the more recent arrivals. Will the Republican Convention be simply a : ratification meeting, ora long drawn bitter contest? Can the President develop sufficient additional scrength within the next two days ‘to insure hie nomination on an early ballot, if not on the frst, or can the man from Maine attack the enemy and rout it in but the pre- - Yiminary skirmish of the battle? These are the questions that are being | on the eve of the great convention, and uation hardly justified their previous doubts and fears, that they were now satisfied that calculating what it is certainly exp ected to accomplish between now and Thursday morn- ing there was no alarm on the part President’s friends, elther here or else- where, THE BLAINE PROGRAMME. Very much the same tenor was the talk at the various places where the Blaine boom has a habitation. The cause of the ex-Sec- retary, it was declared, was stronger this morning than on Saturday night, ulthough no figures would be given. The Blaine people have a roster of the dele- gates with the way that each man isexpected to vote on the first batlot and a second roster showing how the Harrison adherents, or many of them at least, would be certain to turn when the proper time came. They were not making these documents public property for the benefit of the opposition, howerver. It was freely charged that the Harrison element was making many statements that were not founded on fact, and laying claims that would certainly fa il to be verified. The Statement of the Harrisonians for instance that they had been visited by several mem- bers of the Michigan delegation who had vol- untarily promised to support the President's renomination, although counted as for Blame, was pronounced a yarn out of the whole cloth, and the methods of Depew, New, Michenor and the others simply a gigantic game of bluff. The administration forces are evidently fearing another outburst of Blaine enthus!- asm just prior to the opening of the conven- tion, as itis noticeable that nearly all the prominent Blaine clubs from the larger citiesare delaying their arrival until this evening or to-morrow morning. In order to stem this current of popular enthusiasm, the Harrison people are this morning publicly announcing that the greatest Blaine demon- stration of the convention isto be made to- night and to-morrow, but that it must not dismay their organization or scatter their delegates. To be forewarnedis to be fore- armed, and the rank and file ofthe Harrison forces have certainiy been forewarned by their leaders against every possible man- ouver of the skillful Blaine leaders. BRASS BANDS AND BADGES. The Blaineites started in this morning to make Rome how! and they propose to keep up the noise until the balloting is reached. It is to be Blaine and nothing but Blaine so far as brass bands and badges and piccures and all the other outside paraphernalia of a political campaign is concerned. The idea is to im- press the strangers from all parts of the country,who are already here or come to-day or to-morrow, with the idea that nobody but Biaine is being thought of or talked about. Badges, pictures, music, etc., can be had for the asking, without money and without price.“ Blaine clubs from a number of points in lilinoils, Ohio, Wisconsin and other States will bring re-enforcements to a total of several thousand shouters during the day and every man will be expected to use his lungs for all they are worth. In one of the big buildings of the city there are stored away ve thousand white plumes, as many showy uniforms, several wagon loads of flags and banners and pictures of Blaine. According to the present plan, this stock in trade is to be turned ‘loose on the streets for the benefit of the citizens and visitors already on the ground and forthe new arrivals. The whole aim and idea is to have such a gigantic howl, such an infernal din and racket, and to keep it up so long as to make people belleve, even against their own will and sober thought, that no such man as Benjamia Harrison is being thought of or talked of, and that Jas. G. Blaine has everything about his own way. If it is pos- sible to accomplish a stampeile by this kind of campaigning the stampede is going to come, Butthe President’s advisers in the present crisis say they are preparing for any emergency ofthis kind. There cannot and will not and shall not, they say, be any stam- pede inthe convention. Presidents are not nominated nowadays by the clamor ofa dis- organized mob and the bluster of a few would-be leaders, nor is it either possible or probable that such methods can prevail against the personal influence or the wise and prudent counsel of such men as Depew, McKinley and New, who have guided the party to success through many a storm. Hence, they say nobody will either be scared, no matter bow great the din or appalling the nolse. TO-MORROW’S POSSIBILITIES. The convention proceedings of to-morrow will be very uneventful, so far as their politi- cal significance is concerned, unless there should be a contest overthe temporary chair- manship, as now appears barely possible. In the eagerness for a test of strength majority and minority reports may be made by the National Committee on the recommendation for temporary chairman, and in the event there would be a dicisive test of strength between the Blaine and Harrison factions. The Blaine forces have practically settled upon Senator FassettofNew York as their candidate for temporary chairman of the National Oonvention. The New York dele- gation has informally canvassed the matter and during the morning will hold a caucus, at which it is said by friends of ex-Senator Platt, aformal decision is expected to be reached, directing that New York present the name of Mr. Fassett to the National Com- mittee for temporary chairman. The Harrison men continue to talk of Gen. Porter as candidate for Temporary Chair- man, but thus far have not come to any def nite conciusion. One ofthe Harrison men said this morning that the Harrison men would antagonize Fassett whenever an ef- fort was made to nominate him for Tempo- rary Chairman. They would not agree, they said, upon such a man and so strong a sup- orter of Mr. Blaine for the position. A close Friend of Senator Quay said this morningthat the Blaine men intended to push Mr. Fassett nd he would carry their point. The National Committee does not meet until 1 o’clock, and it will then take a vote on Temporary Chair- man. There has been a great deal of speculation and gossip as to the permanent Chairman of the convention, but both sides say that no conclusion has deen arrived at on this mat- ter. Gov. McKinley’s name has been men- tioned a number of times, and gossip has gone 80 far as to say that he would be the permanent Chairman, but Gov. McKinley said this morning that he had not been spoken to on the subject. AN OMINOUS SIGN. One of the most significant indications of the strides of the Blaine boom was to be found this morning in Rhody Shiels’ countenance, Shiels isthe chiet of the Harrison skirmish- ers. While New and Michener are doing work with the big guns of the party, Shiels is Aying @round among the rank and file of the delegations, spreading enthusiasm for Har- rison. When Shiels first landed in Minneap- olis last Thursday he of the quite a biting in a nervous manner the anlit cigar which he had between his Angers. 18 These Blaine wen,“ he said, are the greatest biluffers on earth, I tell you this Blaine talk is all wind, nothing else. We have got two-thirds of the delegation and they know it. Now you mark my words, when they go into the convention they won't make a show down. They can’t got any of our men with their guff, and when they find this out they will quit.’’ **What do you think about the report that Alger’s money is being used to buy up negro votes in Southern delegations?’’ For reply Mr. Shiels summoned a crowd of colored delegates near by and said: ‘‘I want to tell you that the colored men from South- ern States who are for Harrison are high- toned, honorable gentlemen, and are not to be bought, ain't I right, gents?’’ That's what you are, said several of the colored men in chorus. Shieis tried to assume an airof supreme Satisfaction, but the effort was a failure. In a moment he wasoff among another crowd talaing Harrison and berating Blaine and Blaine men. ALMOST A RIOT. At 9:30 o’clock this morning the anti-Harri- son delegation from indiana arrived and at once proceeded to the West Hotel, bearin aloft a banner bearing a picture of Blainean the announcement that Indiana was by no means solid for Harrison. Their arrival was the signal for one of the most dramatic and sensational occurrences of the convention. The sight of the delegation was like shaking a red rag before a bull, as farasthe Indiana Harrison men were con- cerned. ‘‘Rhody’’ Shiel, the gréat hustler of the Hoosier Harrisonians, lost all control of himselfr ‘‘Haul it down, be shouted; cut it dq wn. The suggestion was enough, and forward darted one of his followers and slashed viciously atthe banner. It was a little girl whocame to the rescue at this juncture. She wore an Alger badge and she lifted the banner high out of reach. A great shout ee from the crowd for the girl and for The Fort Wayne contingent had by this timé recovered their senses, and hustling Shiel into their room they shook their fists under his nose in the wildest manper. There was almost a riot at this. Harrison men saw the fatal mistake they had made and made efforts to quell the feeling by cries of peace. But the blood of the anti-Harri- son faction was up and they refused to be mollned. They declared in the most em- phatic and vigorous manner that it was war to the knife. It Harrison is nominated,’’ they shouted, e will defeat him in Indiana. The State can never be carried for Harrison; never, never, never.’’ The incident aroused a very bitter feeling and the Harrison men were very shaky over the effect it would have. THE ALGER FORCES. The positive denial by Gen. Alger of the report that he had withdrawn from the con- test has had a stimulating effect upon the Harrison people,as it is generally understood that much, if notall of the Aiger following will go for Blaine when the Michigan candi- date is out of the field. In reality there is no change in the situation that Gen. Alger oc- cupies. He has always been understood to be very friendly to Blaine and it has been repeatedly announced by his managers that Alger’ scandidacy must not be considered as antagonisticto the great Blaine movement. Gen, Alger has telegraphed the leaders of the Michigan delegation, Congressman Burrows, Col. Dumeld and Senator Stockbridge, that he leaves his interests in the hands of his friends and desires them to act at all times as the exigencies of the situation may warrant. This is generally understood, and Js, in fact, conceded by most of the Michigan delegation to mean that if the vote of Michigan is needed to nominate Blaine on the frst ballot, Alger is outof the race. Should the convention, however, show an inclination to drop both chief contestants and seek a compromise candidate, Gen. Alger is very earnestly and emphatically a candidate. MAINE WILL PRESENT BLAINE’S NAME. The name of James G. Blaine will be pre- sented to the Convention and J. B. Foraker, ex-Governor of Ohio will make the nomin- ating speech on Thursday, when the State of Maine is called. Senator Wolcott of Colorado will make the seconding Michigan, it is claimed, will hold the name of Russell A. Alger and no other names will de presented but Harrison and Blaine. If nomin- ated Blaine will accept. This was the gannouncement made to-day by Col. A. L. Conger, National Committeeman for Ohio, and by John K. Russell, National Com- mitteeman for Florida, to a reporter for the PosT-DIsPATCH. And they further averred that Blaine would signify his intention of ac- cepting the nomination if tendered hin at the 1 time. We have it in Dlack and white from Mr. Blaine, said Mr. Russell, and I believe it is at this moment in Joe Manley’s pocket. 20 Can you nominate Mr. Blaine?“ „es, sir, we can; we have the organiza- tion. What else can we want?’’ But unless you prota this statement from Mr. Blaine that he will accept how can you persuade the delegates that suchis the case?’’ „Such a statement will be presented at the right time, and at present Wecan give posi- tive assurance that we now havethe state- ment. lou say that Gov. Foraker will make the nominating speech?’’ Tes, he will; be has been busy all day preparing his speech, and I judge it will be a splendid effort. He cannot eulogize Mr. Blaine, for Ingersoll took the wind out ofall eulogies, sothat you can un- derstand he has no easy task. I expect it will be a pacific speech, which will not offend the most sensitive Harrison man in the con- vention. Mr. Russell once more reiterated that there was no moral doubt of Blaine’s nomination, and when asked why Blaine’s name was not presented before Thursday he said that it was out of consideration for the Minneapolis people. We know,“ he said, that a city in which the National Convention is held is ut to large expense and it expects to have ts citizens reimbursed for their outlay to a certain extent during the stay of the dele- ates in town. It would be hardship to ‘i inneapolis to have convention last only two days, besides most of the visitors would pre- fer to stay three days. Mr. Russell then hurried away, evidently well pleased with the progress of the Blaine m. zHle did not say, however, that prob- ably the main reason for delaying the nom nations till Thursday is to allow Harrison en- thusiasm to evaporate a little, if it will. Col. Clinger, though not as emphatic as Mr. Russell, was just as positive,andhe talked freely of the matter and gave his reason why Mr. Blaine should be nominated. Our 79 have been making another canvass ofthe delegations,’’ said he, and there is no doubt of the result, Mr. Blaine will be nominated. We open up Blaine head- quarters this morni * *. + will Mr. Blalae accept the nomina - on * There is no longer any doubt whatever ot Mr. Blaine’s acceptance.

Foraker of Ohio, and Blaine will be nominated on the first ballot and elected. „But how will Mr. Blame reconcile an acceptance of the nomination with his letter declaring he was not a candidate? Will it not look as though he had swerved from the rigid path of honor?’’ „No, sir, it will not. Mr. Blaine cannot control the wishes of the people or silence their voices. It is not in his power to pre- vont his nomination, and now the recog: nizes that he is demanded as the people candidate, he will not refuse. cannot re- * fuse. es the statement is made that this move- 3 “4 nominate Blaine is not genuine, and | cause of the high tariff policy to which they hought the party was wedded; they had lib- oan deas of the tariff question then, but now they have ps up severalj rounds of the ladder and fprocity affords them the opportunity they 8 in * avy Mr. Blaine. The nomination of Mr. Blaine by the Minneapolis Convention will create the greatest enthusiasm inthe ranks of the Ke- publican party, for the reason that his policy will put in motion the wheels of every factory and the machinery of every workshop in the country, and we have the markets of the world opened to our products. How about the farme ° „Blaine will bring back to us all the farm- ers who left usin 1890, and his name will be strong enough to select the Congressmen and carry doubtful states. A BLAZE OF ENTHUSIASM. The Young Men’s Republican Blaine Club of Otncinnati arrived in the city this fore- noon, und with it came another biaze of Blaine enthusiasm. The famous band, said to be one of the finest bands in America, accompanied the club, and as ex- Gov. For- aker met the club at the depot there were hilarious cheers for the flery orator of the Buckeye State, and the band struck up an air of welcome. The march from the depot to the West House was a triumphant one. Ex-Gov. Foraker in a car- riage led the column, and as the white-hatted young Republicans, several hundred arent followed in majestic tread, they were loud cheered at every corner. At the head was a magnificent silk banner, emblasoned in gilt bearing the portrait of James G. Blaine, and containing loyal ailusions to his eminent qualities of leadership. No less than 5,000 were assembled at the West House when the column reached its destination, and the scene was one of granda- eur as the club paused in front of the hotel, hoisted its bannersand gave alternate cheers for Blaine and Foraker. From there the col- umn marched into the rotunda of the hotel, and here there was fierce rivalry between the Blaine and Harrison factions. The latter made an attempt to turn the incident into a Harrison demonstration, but their cheers for the President were quickly drowned by counter cheers for Blaine, and the Harrison ople were pressed to the wall and crowded nto the corridors. There followed a scene of exultation and the clpb’s banners were waved wildly in the alr as cheer after cheer arose for James G. Blaine. At this juncture a Blaine man shouted, Foraker, Foraker, and immediately the cry was taken up until the corridors rang with the popular demand forthe Buckeye leader. FORAKER ADDS FUEL TO THE FLAME. As the eloquent ex-Governor stepped to the front he was loudly cheered and it wastwenty — before order could be obtained. He Said: GENTLEMEN OF THE BLAINE CLUB—I congratulate you upon your safe arrival. I congratulate you upon your magnificent appearance. I congratulate you upon the ovation that bas been tendered you by the Kepublicans of the great States across which you have come to arrive in Minneapolis. [Ap- — I congratulate you that you are to © present with us at this, the most magnificent Re- publican National Convention ever held in the hie- tory of the party.

[Tumultuous cheers. ] Three cheers for Foraker, shouted some one at the conclusion of the ex-Governor’s speech, and they were given with great hilarity. An entlifusiast then suggested three cheers for Blaine, and once more the corridors of the hotel rang with shouts for the great Republican leader. THE VICE+-PRESIDENCY. The Vice-Presidengy, for the first time, 18 being discussed to- „and while Rusk and Alger are the names most frequently men- tioned, Hon. m. Warner of Missouri, ex-Congressman, ex-Commander- in-Chief of the . A. Ree and now the Republican nominee for Governor of Missouri, is freely mentioned to-day. Inthe northwest Minnesota hastwo favorite sons who are being strongly spoken of at present among the delegates, Senator W. D. Wash- Senator C. K.

Senator Washburn has been a strong friend of Mr. Blame for years, and if the Piumed Knight is nominated, Washburn’s friends think it would be fit and appropriate for him to be placed second on the ticket. —, — EXPRESSIONS OF OPINION. party. I con Views of Prominent Delegates onthe Pos- sibilities of the Convention, MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., June 6.—Hon. Geo, OC. Gorham, ex-Secretary of the United States Senate, to a representative of the press, this morning summed up the situation from his view-point as follows: **So far as Mr. Blaine’s attitude towards this contest is concerned there is no disposi- tion on the part of Harrison’s friends to dis- cuss it. The delegates in the Republican party will do their own thinking on the sub- ject, and no effort is being made in the inde- pendent headquarters to give any direction to the discussion. I find my old California friends endeavoring to determine which of the candidates is safest for the party at large. That State is well known to be very partial towards Mr. Blaine. Old-time friends of his on the delegation think, however, that it isnot the vote of California alone that should be considered in coming to a conclu- sion; they want to know who can command the most strength in the States in which the real battle is to fought. Without knowing the preference of all the delegates it would somewhat surprise me if Mr. Harrison should receive less than one-halfof the delegation when the time comes toannounce their vote. ‘*The resignation of Mr. Biaine, as I under- stand, had the effect of bringing to Mr. Har- rison’s support three of the delegates from Massachusetts, who up to that time were said to favor the nomination of Mr. Blaine. The friends of the President, however, have no difficulty in securing the concession from all delegates that his merits as a public official have a larger quantity ofavailability than any President has contributed for the party for twent pears. They do not claim that he is a good fellow in the sense of calling everybody by his first name, but they say that he has not given the party anything in his course to defend, and that men who care about success in their — 9 — States feel that his nomi- nation would strengthen them in their local contests , more than that of any candidate ustifies the compliments of Republicans. e has a very great hold not only ot the Re- publicans of the — but upon the con- servative and thought people of the coun- try atlarge.

New is the most experienced man they have, but de is no match for men like Guay. Olarkson or Piatt. Leaving out the following these men control, and Quay, Clarkson and if Platt took charge of Harrison’s followers, Blaine would be defeated. No wonder the Indiana men are wishing they had 2 with them again. The seventy contesting delegates hold the balance of power. With able generalship Harrison might have had his delegates de- clared regular and that would have given a majority inthe convention. Bat he will never succeed in this, 2 Quay and Olarkson are too expert in thé manipulating of the committee. One thing that must be admit- ted is that the Harrison men have plenty of courage. Chauncey M. Depew was in a group of del- egates from all parts of the United States in West Hotel this aftternoon explain- ing why he was for Harrison. I am for Harrison, he said, because he is the only man who can carry the State. For twelve ae we have put up our dest men in New ork and they nave all been defeated; but Harrison carried the State and I believe that he is the only man who can.“ Depew was very much chagrined when he learned that there were only twenty-two Harrison men in the delegation. DELEGATIONS DIVIDED. NORTH DAKOTANS HEAR FROM THE TURK. MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., June 6:—The North Dakota delegates I 7 to be sadly divided on the Presidency, but the faction that insists that Blaine’s nomination is necessary to party success in North Dakota has secured tne adoption of the following resolutions by the Legislature of that State: Whereas, The voters of the State of North Dakota and the Nation are about to participate ina national election, and . Whereas, Of the many able and honorable leaders of the Republican party. each one of whom would, with dignity and fidelity, fillthe presidential chair, we believe there is one who isthe first choice ofa vast majority of the masses of the Republican party. as well as a large percentage of those who have hefe- tofore allied themselves with other parties, and Whereas, We view with admiration the course pursued by him in the various positions of trusts to which he has been called, and especially the skillful and patriotic manner in which he has conducted the affairs of State as porte and believe that he best represents the principles of true ‘Republicans; now, therefore, be it Resolved, That we, the Representatives of the people of the State of North Dakota, in legislative assembly convened, express our belief that the Re- — National Convention about to assemble in inneapolis will best serve the interests of the Re- publican party and promote the welfare of the coun- try by the nomination of that illustrious statesman and gallant and magnanimous knight of reciprocity and protection, Hon. James G. Biaine. NEW YORK FIFTY FOR BLAINE. There has been considerabie specuiation as to the attitude of ex-Senator Warmer Miller and his friends in the W York delegation. It has been asserted and with equal force de- nied that Mr. Miller would join his forces with ex-Senator Platt in o LEGISLA- t renomination of President and considerable weight has ed to his 2 course in this regard. All doubts on the question were set at rest last hight by a conference between Miller delegates held in the rooms of Hon. H. H. Warner at the West Hotel. After a full discussion of the situa- tion it was unanimously a ed to 1 the nomination of Mr. Blaine. Mr. ler himself was present and took active part in the conference. Senator Miller, later in the evening, fully confirmed this statement. To a reporter of the Posr- DisrATCH he said: *‘I have arrived here after six weeks’ travel over the country in which I have not been able toconfer with my friends in New York. Since coming herelhave consulted with as many of the delegates as I capla ossibly meet in the short time I have n here. I have found that a large majority of delegates are decidedly in favor of Mr; Blaine as representing their constituents. accept that as the views of the Kepublicans of the State of New York, and I shall support Mr. Blaine in the conven- tion.“ Senator Platt was seen last evening immediately afterthe statement of Senator Miller that he would support Blaine. „Well, what is there new to-night?’’ asked the member of the Big Four. Warner Mil- ler has announced his alliance to Blaine. It is not new that Miller would support Blaine. His friends knew that he would do it all the time. „Will it bring to Blaine any more of the New York delegates?’’ was asked. No, for we knew what decision he would come to.“ P How many of the New York delegates has Blaine then?’’ ‘*Fifty.’’ ‘“‘Will Blaine De nominated on the first ballot, do you think, Senator?’’ Most certainly, replied Senator Platt, there are only two candidates in the field and Blaine will of course be nominated on the first baliot.’’ The Harrison forces were dismayed by the fact that Senator Miller had gone over into the Blaine camp; ever since they opened up active warfare they have been claiming him as an administration man. A conserva- tive Harrison man was asked how New York stood since Miller had gone over to the ** ~ sition. He said that it left Harrison but thirty-two of the delegates while Blaine would pollforty. Previously they had been claiming thirty-nine for Harrison. There was a great crush in and about the rooms of the New York delegation at 10:30 o’clock this morning, the time announced for the firstjmeeting of the delegates from the Empire State. J. Sloat Fassett called the meeting to order and after consider- able delay succeeded in clear- ing the room of all but the delegates. The meeting lasted only ten minutes and no attempt was made to take a vote on the pref- erence of delegates for the presidential nomi- nation. Ex-Senator Warner ler was elected permanent chairman of the delega- tion, the Blaine men having evidently aban- doned their programme announced yester- day, which was to make Mr. Depew Chairman and then attempt to gag him by a resolution requesting him not to putthe name of Harrison. John W. Dwight of New York was elected perma- nent secretary; Philip Becker of Buffalo was selected as New York’s honorary vice-pres!- dent of the convention, and Rufus T. Peck of Concord as honorary secretary. Members of the several committees of the convention were selected as follows: Resolutions, State Senator Edmund O' Con- nor of gBinghbamton; Rules, Gen. James W. Husted of West Chester; Credentials, Wm. C. Wallace of Brooklyn; Permanent Organiza- tion, Gen. Samuel Thomas of New York; Committee to Notify Nominees for President and Vice-President of the action of the con- vention, Col. Elliott F. She of New York; Frank 8. Witherbée o 21 was chosen to succeed J. Sloat Fassett as Nation- al Committeeman. The meeting adjourned subject to the call of the chairman. Mr. Platt said this morning that Blaine would receive the votes of fifty-eight of the New York delegates. The claim made by the other Blaine men in the delegation is fifty for Blaine against twenty-two arrison. A Harrison delegate made the following esti- canvass: mate after.a careful Blaine, 84; , 88; doubtful, 5. OW OHIO STANDS.

COLORED MEN’S CLAIMS. Ithas been many years since a Republican National Convention had so many colored del- egates as will be seated in the Convention hall to-morrow noon, A mass meeting of colored delegates and greg re has been held in this city, at which the following re lutions were adopted: ; . Resolved, that the colored delegates to the National Republican Convention, and we here assembled,especially demand of the National Convention a respectful hearing, and consid- ering of the matters contained in the memo- rialof the National Civil Rights Asseciation, and that the colored delegates stand upon such a dectaration of rights as the last guar- antee which they can accept at the hands of the Republican party. The memorial will be presented to the Con- vention in the earlier hours by the colored delegates, and it will be espoused by Albion W. Tourgee, the well-known agitator, WHAT MICHIGAN WILL DO. The position of the Michigan delegation, in view of the caadidacy of Gen. R. A. Alger of that State, is awaited with much interest. The delegation met at 10 o’clock this morning and is considering the question of its action in the convention. It is stated positively that Alger is still in the field and that his name will be presented to the convention by Col. Henry M. Duffield of Detroit. However, it is maintained, in fact conceded, that at least three and probably five of the delega- tion are for Harrison, whether Alger runs or not, the two delegates from the South Dis- trict say they were instructed for Harrison and will vote for him. This morning's meet- ing proposed to consider the claims and qual- ifications of the three ———— candidates, and an attempt will be made to have the del- egation act as an unit, it being hoped in that bee to hold the wavering delegates for Alger and to make the delegation more influential in the Convention. Gen. Lew Wallace, Congressman Boutelle, R. A. Frazier of Detroit and some others are expected to speak before the delegation, and the result is awaited with interest: 8 The more hopeful Harrison men claim all of South Dakota’s eight delegates; but Gov. Mellette and other conservative supporters place the administration at six, with a possi- bility of more. KANSAS CAPTURED, : An important development in the Kansas delegation was made this morning. When the Kansanscame here last evening they at once got together and organized by electin John James ingallg Chairman, E. C. Little o Abilene, Secretary, and for the Committeeman. tion is practically uninstructed, for this reason the parry, managers were exceedingly anxious about its standing. Ingalls announced without hesitancy imme- diately upon his arrival, that his preference was for Gen. Harrison. When he was se- lected as chairman of the delegation, the Harrison men generally felt jubilant, bat it developed this morning that their jubilation was premature. Harrison has not got the Kansas delegation yet and what is more he is not likely to get it. A ballot was taken last nightandit is a surprise. Blaine was found to have a eee of the delegates. Not only was the Plumed Knight mere for Harrison, They entire delegation for him. They announced that at a meeting of the delegation to be held this at- ternoon, they will make an attempt to have the unit rule adopted. A prominent member of the delegationin speaking of the Blaine men’s intentions, said: We propose thentotry and havea unit rule adopted, and then we will see whether or not Senator Ingalls is a strong enough could be Harrison man to go back on his State. I dont believe he will.“ INDIANA’S DELEGATES. The story floating about this morning that there was trouble tn the Indiana delegation and that several of the delegates were ready to break to Blaine is without foun- dation. In fact, there was some lit tle friction yesterday, but the trouble had been amicably arranged and ihe delegation is solid for Harrison and will stand by him tothe last. The Indiana delegation organized by electing the following of- ficers: Chairman, Hon. W. Thompson; Vice-Chairman,Gen. Lew Wallace; e ‘ 8 0 Miller; Assistant Secretary, Thenrey. The committeemen are: On resolutions, O. F. Griffin; Permanent Organization, N. T. Depauw ; Rules and Order of Business, 8. W. R. McKean. WILL PRESENT ALGER’S NAME. The Michigan delegation held a secret meet- ing this morning to determine whether they would present Mr. Alger’s name to the Convention or withdraw it. Yes- terday the announcement was made dy Senator Stockbridge that Mr. Alger’s name had been withdrawn. This was the verdict ofthe Michigan delegates who were here. But Mr. Alger was not satisfied to be with- drawn. Besides the friends of Mr. Blaine made up their minds this morning that the result on the first ballot might be so close that it would be safer to have other candi- dates before the convention. So the dele- gates decided to present Mr. Alger’s name and Mr. Duffield will place him in nomination. VERMONT UNDECIDED. The Vermont delegation organized. They have practically agreed to stand together and to vote asa unit, but say they have not yet decided whom to support, were elected as follows: Powers, Chairman, and W. R.

The name is that of William McKin- ley of Ohio, and McKinley to-day is brought forward as a dark horse’’ ten times where John Sherman or Allison is mentioned once, ; This morning a piece of information bear-. a ing on this significant growth of McKinley’s | strength as the time for the opening of the Blaine-Harrison duel draws near was given to a Post-DIsPATCH correspondent from a source which can not be doubted, and the informant vouches for the perfect honesty ot the Massachusetts delegate who reported the dévelopment to him. He states he is informed that y morning the Massachusetts delegation had a caucus, and the result was that on the first ballot taken in the convention Massachusetts would cast fifteen votes each for Blaine and Harrison. Then, folowing this discovery, @ canvass was made for some name upon which the delegation could unite if the first ballot failed to nominate Blaine or Harrison. The result of this canvass was that when the Mas- sachusetts delegation caucus ended the dele. gation had agreed to vote as a unit for Wm, McKinley of Ohio as the presidential candi- date most likely to carry the Republican col - ors through to victory in the national elec- tion. The result ‘of this definite decision of the Massachusetts delegation as to their dark - horse’’ candidate was at once reported to Foraker of Ohio, one of the pron Blaine lieutenants now in Minneapolis. Mr. Foraker was told that the vote for Mc would be cast by the Massachusetts delegat only when the first ballot had Re stone neither Blaine had the nor Harrison that bad been claimed for them. : Foraker was asked in the event of the . h th iting their . the | ° one letter of Sta 1 aAisc N N 8 no 1 x 2 man by Ohio’s doing so, because another t „Massachusetts, would have 1 ecided that mak yams? was the only ee upon which it could unite its full delega 9 and Ohio would simply be 728 in line 29 Massachusetts in support of an Ohioan. Foraker, it is stated, did not ex any opinion as to what he thought of McKinley's nation in case of a threat- tween Blaine and Harrison ed to. He simply answered the plain question whether or’ not Ohio would support McKinley with its delegation, if Massachusetts did so. The answer co from a Blaine leader, like Foraker, significant of two things.

Senator Cullom has heard the mutterings of the storm, and his lightning rod is in po- sition. Word has gone out among his friends that if Harrison is not nominated on the first Dallot he would like to have the Illinois votes thrown to him on the second. Out of this Senator ullom had a letter in his pocket from the President authorizing the withdrawal of his name on the second Dallot. The A and Rusk booms gathered Strength and even the Alger boom was gal- vyanized into something like activity. MASSACHUSETTS MEANS IT. With the arrival of the Ohio delegation this morning the under current movement towards McKiniey asadark horse candidate took definite form. The Ohio people were waited on in their headquarters by the Massachusétts delegation through a com- mittee who reported that in the event ofthe first ballot not resulting in the nomination .of Blaine or Harrison, Massa- chusetts could and would cast its votes solid for McKinley. The Ohio delegation re- * ed that Ohio could be counted to support McKinley unanimously at the proper moment, and that on the same hot where Massachusetts’ y votes should be cast for McKinley, the -six votes Gf Ohio would follow for the same candidate. Thereply of Masachusetts to this was that her vote wouid be cast for McKinley on the second ballot, provided the frst did not result in the nomination of Biaine or Harrison. The Ohio delegation meets in caucus at 2 o’clock this afternoon to canvass the situa- tions. Delegate Samuel Winslow of Wor- cester,inthe Third Massachusetts District, said to the Post-DIsPaTcH correspondent: Massachusetts on the first ballot will cast 16 «votes each for Blaine and Harrison. According to arrangement now reached, after that ballot the Massachusetts delega- tion will unite on McKinley of Ohio and vote solidiy for him. The feeling of Massa- chusetts is very friendly to McKinley and we Delieve that he now stands a strong show for the nomination.’’ **] never heard of B. C. Marsh before.

Warner— Bad Split in the Delegation. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., June 6.—The Missouri delegation were up bright and early this morning with a strong disposition to get right in the swim. They retired early the evening before for two reasons. The first was that they were ‘‘dead’’ tired, as Billy Hobbs expressed it, after their tedious ride of Saturday and Saturday night, most of them finding more alluring amusements than trying tosleep, despite the disturbances in the coaches. The second was that while, as Col. C. D. Comfort said they were willing and anxious to ‘‘stand up for Missouri,’’ they did not want to do it through they night, and so they thougbt the surest way of avoiding such an experience would be to get into beds or cots early, forthe incoming crowds were so great the accommodations of hostelries were growing hourly less at an alarming rate, The Missouri delegation has been inocu- lated with the bitterness which has devel- opedamong the Harrison and Blaine men. As soon as the Missourians came inthe Filley- ites conferred with de ole man and the Silks caught Dick Kerens. It was apparent at once that a bad split was inevitable. Filley has been doing everything in his power since he came to Minneapolis to help the Blaine boom, and the Sliks were of the opinion soon after their arrival that he would notregard his instructions for Har- rison even on the first ballot. Asa matter of course, all his sympathizers were out and out Blaine men after their conference with de ole man.“ It was found when heads were counted that the delegation stood eivyhteen for Harrison and fifteen for Blaine. Filley, seeing that his chances of getting the National Committeemanship again were poor, if he called a meeting of the delegation for last night, decided to postpone the or- ganization until the latest moment possible. The situation was desperate and desperate means were necessary to get a majority of the delegation with him, and so ‘‘de ole man’’ determined to use them. Instructing his trusted NMeutenants whattodo, he left the headquarters in the Nicollet House and joined Clarkson, Fassett, Flatt and the restof the Blaine schemers. The instructions he gave were to try and bull- doze Warner and his friends into a pledge to give him the National Committeemanship, threatening them, ifthey refused,to dump the Major in the gubernatorial campaign. These threats were made. No sooner did Warner arrive than the Filleyites called on him and informed him that Filley’s retention as National Commit- teeman from Missouri would be absolutely necessary to his success. Warner is shrewd. He showed no sign ofangerat this peremp- tory demand, but he refused to make any de- cided announcement as to what hiscourse would be. He was given until this morning to decide. The Republican candidate for Governor will certainly be called upon to display great political shrewdness to get out of the dilem- ma inwhichhe finds himself. When asked early this morning what he would do, he said that he was not in a position to say anything. Filley’s action in postponing the organiza- tion of the Missouri delegation greatly in- censed Kerens. When seen early this morn- ing, Mr. Kerens said: ‘‘Filley is desperate and is holding off to seeif he cannot better himself. He has not calleda meeting of the delegation yet and has not announced when he will call it.“ How about his threats?’’ Oh! He is making all kinds of threats. But they won't do him any good. FILLEY Is WORRIED. The scene in the Missouri headquarters to- day was a lively one. A number of delegates came in on the morning train, but as there was no * to register the delegates it could not positively be ascertained whether all the members of the delegation were in or not. Filley claimed that they were not. This was to his purpose for he is anxious to postpone the organization of the delegation as long as possible as he real- izes that at present it would be against him. He was standing in a corner near the stair- way on the ground floor engaged in close conversation with ex-Congressman Niedring- haus when a Post-DIsPaTCH reporter ac- costed him. When are you going to call the delegation together?“ he was asked. don't know; they are not all here yet. **Who are missing?“ „Now, don’t bother me, I haven't got time to talk. Mil you have a meeting this afternoon?’’ Maybe. I've got to attend a meeting of the National Committee at 11 o’clock and until that is over I won’t have time to bother about anything else. Have you anything to say about the gen- eral outlook?“ No, said ‘de ole man’ emphatically, as he and Mr. Niedringhaus took the elevator. The truth is that Filley is worried. He ex- pees the Blaine movement to be so strong hat many ofthe Harrison delegates would weaken andthat ne would then be able to control them. His hopes have not been realized thus far, and unless there is a change before the meeting of the delegation ig Calied there will be some bad bi dis- — 5 in the conference, as de ole man’’ and his followers will die hard. The Kerens crowd are of the opinion that 1 pone the mecting of the dele- tion until to-morrow morning just before the convention meets unless he succeeds in some of the delegates who are for Harrison against him. t, however, and are holding thelr men 1D well.

On the ground floor of the West Hotel there is a lobby surround- ing the lobby below. The ladies put in their time looking down on the maddening throng inthe lower lobby. Miss Kerens is usually seated with a coterie of ladies comprising Mrs. Clarkson, Mrs. Fassett and Mrs. Depew. She is able to point out every prominent per- son to her companions, FUN EN ROUTE. The Missouri delegates enjoyed themselves immensely en route. Several nice quiet games, of an immense amount of — 4 sying, some few big wagers, whistling by Delegate Julius Lehman, character sketches by Col. Abe Slupsky, and singing by the crowd served to make the hours pass pleas- antly. Among the wagers made was one N Col. Slupsky of $50 to $25 with Comfort, that Blaine wouid not be the nominee. Recorder Hobbs and Comfort also made a wager of $0 even, oc eal taking the Blaine end and Hobbs the e Attached tothe rear end of the train was Col. Dawes’ private car and his guests were ex-Senator Warner Millerof New Lork. Judge Morris M. Estee of California and Gov. Seay of Oklahoma. Mr. Miller and Judge Seay were both as close as clams onthe trip and refused to give any Opinions of — 2 on the probable work of the convention Whenthe news was brought on the train that Blaine had resigned, both were even more inclined to reticence than they were be- fore. Ex-Senator Miller, when asked what he thought it meant, simply smiled good- humorediy, but never opened his lips in re- ply. He said it was a surprise to him, but further he would not express himself. After repeated attempts had been made to get some expression from him, but without suc. cess, Clark H. Sampson, who was one of Col. Dawes’ guests for the time, suggested that Col. Slupsky be consulted as to bis views. Nov that you mention him, who is Slup- Sky:?“ said ex- Senator Miller. „Why, don’t you know him?’’ said Col. Dawes. „No,“ sald the Senator. I have read about him, but I supposed that he wasa yb 32 Is there really any such person liv- ug?“ ‘*Why is more he ison the him.’’ Do, said Mr. Miller and Gov, Seay, both. Acommittee of one was appointed to wait on the distinguished Colonel. He was at first rather averse to any introduction to Col.

Senator and Governor and Judge, he said, on being introduced, it gives me great pleasure to meet you. 1am glad to meet you, said Senator Miller. have read of you, but I didn’t know there was any such person living.’’ Well, there’s where you was wrong,’’ said Col. Abe. 1 am living, and I may further remark that I’m glad of it. It's the softest snap l ever struck. **W hat is?’’ said Col. Dawes. **Livingis,’’ said Slupsky. ‘‘Why,if any- body ayear ago had told me that things would come as smooth forme as they is, I wouldn't ha’ believed 'em. Honest, I wouldn’t.

Now, Colonel, without meanen’ any offense to the liquor you got on board, I wants the Senator and the Guv'nor to have a drink with me. It will be an honorto me todrink with them, and I have got some of the finest stuff that ever tickled any throat. It costs a dollar an ounce. A friend of mine gave it to me when I was going away, and here itis. When he handed it to me, Isaid to him: John, will you swear by dis?’’ ‘Abe,’ says he, ‘it’s eight year old.’ ‘Well,’ says John, ‘I doan like to doubt your word, but it’s —— small for its age.’ Senator and Governor, have one with me. During this speech of Col. Abe’s, which was delivered in his inimitable style, the com- pany was in roars of laughter. Witha view to having Col. Abe continue his enjoyable conversation, Col. Dawes sug- gested that the fame of Slupsky was due principally to his great interest in education. Now, say, Colonel and Governor and Sen- ator, let me tell you about that. It's a guy dey got on me, because I was mixed up in a School Board election. But, say, let me tells yo"se gentiemen right here dat no man ap- reciates an education more than 1 do. Say ‘dgiveevery dollar 1 got in the world and I'd take the clothes off my back and I'd get right off this train and walk back to St. Louis if i could get an education by doing it.

Say, Ide be out 0 sight. Roth the Senator and Gov. Seay thought Abe was one of the most delightful characters they had ever met,and on his departure Senator Miller said he no longer wondered at the fame of Slupsky; he only wondered how — Colonel had remained in obscurity so ong. It was when the train was nearing Minne- apolis that Delegate Julius Lehman gave the delegates an exhibition of his wonderful ween n Lehman said that he wished he had a guitar so that he could play for them also, and Slupsky, while he declared that Lehman started his music store with in- struments purchased for him at different conventions, took up a collection to buy him one more in order that they might enjoy the Eighteenth Ward representative’s playing aud singing, while in Minneapolis. Another Missourian who did much to lighten the time spent on the train was B. F. Russell, editor of the Crawford County Mir- ror. Col, Crawford composed an original Blaine song on the train to be sung to the tune of Sweet Byeand Bye’’ and, led by Hussell and his wife, the Blaine men sang it with great enthusiasm. One stanza of it ran thus: ves, said Col. Dawes, and what train. 1 will send for We Pp Missouri’s fair land.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., June 6.—One of the most exciting incidents of the day was a row between Col. R. C. Kerens of Missouri and Rhody Shiels of Indiana, one of the leading Harrison men, which occurred in the Indiana Headquarters at the West Hotel. Ever since the big movement for Blaine has been started the principal fear of the Harrison men has been the probable desertion of Blaine’s old admirers who had bound them- selves to Harrison after the Maine statesman’s letter to Gen. Clarkson, Among those who were looked upon as uncertain was Kerens. Of course Newand Michener the leading Harrison workers were too smart to even intimate to the Blaine men that they entertained any such suspicions of their honesty. But Shiels is not a statesman. He is a plain boomer, and very impulsive. He says what as thinks, and thisis the great trouble with him. When Kerens entered the Indiana head- quarters he was met and greeted by a crowd, among whom was Shiels. The Missouri leader inquired how things stood and Shiels at once spoke up in his usually point-blank style: „Oh, we're all right. They can’t beat us The only thing we have got to fear,“ he continued, addressing one of the party, ‘‘is the desertion of some of Bilaine’s old friends, like Kerens here. Kerens got hot, and his face flushing with anger, he said: ‘*‘What do you mean by that? You have no right to make such remarks. It isaninsult. I want to tell you that you don’t know me when ae give expression to such suspicion. am for Harrison and I will be for him longer than some who are constantly asserting their loyalty. I do not have toassert mine. Ihave given my all who know me, I will keep °° animation, and his indignation at Shiel’s insinuation was evi- dently so great that Gen. Michener who had been attracted to the scene and took the indiscreet Indianan to task for his remark and finally succeeded in smooth- ing the matter over. i CONVENTION NOTES. Emmons Blaine Snubs Col Shepard— Mass Meeting. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., June 6.—Emmons Blaine, the son of the Maine . statesman, ad- ministered a terrible snubthis morning to Elliott F. Shepard in the breakfast-rvom of the West Hotel. So severe was it that if Em- mons’ pais nominated Col. Shepard is not likely to be among the heaviest con- tributors to the Republican cam- paign fund, as is usual with him. Col. Shepard, who thinks that he is the backbone of the Harrison boom, spying young Blaine in the dining- room, rushed up to him andin his usual flippant way, said, „Hello! Mr. Blaine, I trust you have come here to look after your father’s fool friends. What I may be here for is in no way any of your business,’’ said Mr. Blaine as he moved away. The snub did not apparently affect the superb nerve of the Colonel. He said he would have ample op- portunity for revenge. However, he did not say that the Mail and Express would boom Blaine’s nomination. The mass-meeting to be held In the conven- tion hall to-morrow evening under the direc- tion of the National League of Republican Clubs is to be an enthusiastic demonstra- tion. The speakers are to be Ingalls, Bur- rows,Spooner,.Clayton, Thurston, Foraker and probably Depew, McKinley and Lynch. The complexion of the speakers shows that they are both Blaine and Harrison men, so the cry of the Harrison people to the effect that it is merely ascheme to boom Blaine will be silenced. It is stated the platform which will be adopted in case Blame is nominated was brought here yesterday from Washington by Congressman Boutelle. It was written by Mr. Blaine himself. It is very brief. The main plank will treat of reciprocity and it will be sound on the financial question. There will be no mention of a federal election law for the South, nd pia accept seco ticket he gave To-Night Only. »The Old Homestead, by special permis- sion of Denman Thompson, will be played by St. Malachy’s Dramatic Societies for the ben- efit of the Post-Disrpatcu Flood Relief Fund, at the Grand Opera- house.

FILIBUSTERING BY THE OPPOSITION |improve the locality OF NO AVAIL. Fifteen-Minute Speeches Made by Both Sides—The Missouri Congressman Led the Debate—The Vote Was 168 Yeas to 44 Nays—Congratulations Showered on the Bill’s Author. | WASHINGTON, D. C., June 6.—In the House this afternoon Mr. Hatch moved to take up his anti-option bill. It wasread. Opponents of the measure attempted to break a quorum by not voting. They did not succeed. The vote was 156 to 11, so the bill is before the house. Hatchled off in the debate, which was limited to fifteen minutes on each side. The debate on the bill developed nothing new, but the presentation of the old argu- ments was sharp and crisp. As each gentie- man was limited for time a fairly successful effort was made to get the most out of the opportunity. At an opportune mo- ment Mr. Hatch moved a suspension of the rules. This was done and the bill put upon its passage. As it was clearly seen that the bill had a good ma- jority no further attempt at fillbustering was made and the bill was passed by a vote of 168 yeas to 46 nays. Mr. Hatch was heartily congratulated by all when the measure was passed, upon which he has staked so much. On the St. Louls Merchants’ Exchange the news was received that the Hatch bill had been brought before the House of Kep- resentatives, but the news that it had been pnssed was not promulgated untilafter adjournment. The effect of the news that the bill was to be considered caused a sharp decline in prices, July wheat 8 from 85% to 84, and corn from 7 O 0 To- Night Only.

Or Orry, Pa., June 6.—The most appalling Calamity that ever visited this section oc- Curred yesterday. While sight-seers were Watching the rise in the river, there sud- Genly came without warning a devouring tempest of fire and flood and hundreds of Gead tell the story more eloquently than words. A large proportion of the popula- don about noon was distributed along the Danks and bridges of the Allegheny River and ou Oreek, watching the rise of the flood im both streams, the chief cause of the rise of the latter being due toa cloudburst above Titusville, which resulted in the loss of many lives in that city. The spectators were amazed to see an ominous covering ofr oil make its appearance on the crest of the flood pouring Gown the ou Creek Valley. People began slowly to fall back from the bridge and the creek, but they had hardly begun to doso when an explosion was heard up the stream. This was rapidly followed by two others, and quick as a flash of lightning the creek for two Milles was filled with an awful mass of roar- ing fames and billows of smoke that rolled , thigh above the creek and river hills, Ol City ig bounded on all sides by steep hills. On Oreek comes down the valley from the north, and just before its confluence here with the Allegheny is crossed by a bridge to that part of the city embraced in the Third Ward, which lies along the west bank of the creek and the north bank of the river. Almost all that portion of the town was on fire within three minutes of thetimo of the explosion, and no one knows yet how many of the in- habitants are burned in the ruins of their homes. AN EXPLOSION. Few ofthe spectators who were watching the fooa when the explosions occurred, and escaped, can give a good idea of what hap- pened. Allagree there was a terrific explosion and that the air was filled with flames. This was quickly followed by two other explo- sions. Men thought that hell had broken joose on earth, and their thought was not a Violent one. Three gasoline tanks had ex- ploded almost at the same time. The oll on ‘the creek blazed up. The gas in the air burst into a roaring flame. The water, land and air were literally ablaze. Men, women and children were knocked prostrate, and many of them never arose. Some of those who did found themselves in a lake of Hames. The multitude fed with screams of anguish for the higher ground. In the rush many of the weak were trampled upon and badly injured, Some were hurt by horses; others ran and leaped into the water and were drowned, The flames in the air quickly burned out, but they left huge volumes of Diack smoke across the face of the heavens, beneath which roared the flerce fames of the burning oll upon the water. The many submerged houses and shops along the creek bottom were soon in flames, and the silent Are of blazing gas was suc- ceeded by the crackling flames of burning homes.In many of the houses the people were confined. They could not escape from the fire. Within sight of thousands, who heard their piteous screams, they burned to death orleaped intotheriver andthere perished by both flood and fre. Such acombined scene of destruction by twoterrible elements was seldom witnessed upon thisearth. Itis marvelous that from the valley of death any were saved alive. It is strange that out of this combination of fire and flood any houses were spared. The story told by Harry McVeagh, member of a rescu- ing party which saved a dozen lives, sur- passes in horror manyof those related by persons who worked in bringing corpses out of ruins and his words indicate that he believes many of those saved alive would be better with the dead, they are so horribly wounded and burned. He, with Wade Hulings, Wm. Couch and Albert Smith, toured the creek in a skiff after the fire had all died off its surface, and to the foot bridge, crossing at the head of Seneca street, they round eleven persons clinging. Their condition was horrible, said Me- ‘Veagh. ‘‘I wish that I could close my eyes and shutout the sight. Their clothing was burned off their bodies, their hair was singed and the eyes even in some of them were burned out. Yetsome of them, I believe, will live,’* and the brave fellow breathed a sigh, as if he regarded their living as a m{Sfortune to themselves. oF clung piteously to us as we took them from the bridge into our boat and the cries they sent up were the most pitiful that ever reached my ears.

Connelly, Jr., Lieutenant- Colonel and Aide, Pittsburg: You can report to the Governor that the loss of life becomes more highly apparent. Sixty-three bodies have been recovered. Several were seen adrift in the river and with the subsiding of the flood many more will undoubtedly be found. Over 100 families are homeless. 2 pecuniary loss is estimated at from $900,000 to $1,200,000. The utmost good order prevails. At my request Col. Hulings ordered out Company D, Sixteenth Regiment, last night to preserve order in case of need. W. G. Hunt, Mayor. Sixteen miles of death and desolation is the story in brief of the awful catastrophe which has decimated the vorders of Oil Creek from Titusville to this pointon both sides of the creek. Flood and fire have left ruin and wreck, and it will take days before the recora of death and destruction can be com- pleted. This is the most awful disaster which has ever come to this vicinity and has no rival in the United States except the Johnstown flood. A raging torrent, a tank of oll undermined and toppied into the flood, aspark from a locomotive passing over the bridge in the city, a series of explosions Along the surface of the creex, and houses, men, women and children instantly wrapped in flames, these are the causes and effects so faras this place is concerned. The inmates of the houses had butto choose how to die, either fdrown or be burntto death. There was no escape and many chose the easier death and jumped into the water, but even there the fire found them, and every body so far recovered shows that the fire did the work of destruction. At 6a. m. the fire had burned itself out and the burning ollhad passed away. The creek and river are rising, however, and much of this place will be still further flooded. But which the fiood can damage. The me has left nothing waters may prey. The rising water interfered with the recovery of the bodies. The fierce flood destroyed one mile of property on the west side of the creek. Across the creek fromthe main por- tion of the city nota house is standing be- tween the creek and the hilland no life can be seen, except the many searchers for the dead. Along the east side of Oil Creek fora distance of tnree-quarters of a mile, every building, except one along the creek, has peen destroyed. Thisstrange monument to the death-laden floodis a frame dwelling- house standing among the ruins. It wasinthe midst of the flood and fire and it was passed by. The curtains are on the win- dows and the noon meal is on the table, but the former occupants are among the dead. They attempted to escape and were caught inthe sea of fame. On the east side the greatest damage is along the street. The searching for the dead was stopped at mid- night, but resumed atdaylight. At 7 a. m. to-day sixty bodies had been found, of which thirty have beeh identined. They are lying in the City Hau and a temporary Morgue in the south side. The scene is almost too much for endurance. Burned out of house and home and bearing no semblance to human bodies, in positions showing the terrible agony when death came, area few of the sights to be seen. From various estimates, it is safe to say the loss inthis city alone will reach 200. Many have been swept away and will never be found. When the flood sub- sides it will reveal scores of bodies. At one point alone ten are known to have fallen in ſo the burning food. None of them have been found. FINANCIAL Loss. The financialloss to this place is hard to estimate at present, but it will be over $1,000, - 000. Most of the houses destroyed were owned the gg oe and were worth from $1,000 to $50,000. There were between two hundred and three hundred houses destroyed, besides the various hotels, works and manufactories. The building occupied by the Derrick was abandoned, but the per came out this morning. Hundreds of homeless people are being taken care of and the Presbyterian Church is being used as a temporary hospital, Heartrending and pitiful sights meet one every where and tales of heroism and desper- ate fights with the destroying elements are received. Daylight showed the scene in all its horrors and many strong men turned awa sick at heart, as bod atter body was found, even with the water at its present height, dreading the awful tale that wiil be told when the 0 subsides.

Two bridges span Oil Creek near the mouth, one an iron bridge belonging to the city and the other a bridge ofthe Western New York & Pennsylvania Rallroad, over which runs the branch from Oli City to Meadville. Oll City was incorporated asa city in 1870. It has thirteen churches, three public schools, six banks, two oll refineries, a man- ufactory of engines, of engine boilers, a bar- rel factory and other industries. Titusville is on Oil Creek and on the Allegheny Valley Railroad, and the terminus of the Dunkirk & Allegheny Valley and Union & Titusville Rall - roads. Itis ninety miles south of Dunkirk and about twenty-five miles east of Mead- ville. It is the most popuious town of Craw: ford County. Ithas nine churches, several banks, an opera-house, a high school, hotels, rinting Offices and newspapers.

TITUSVILLE, FIRE AND FLOOD SPREAD DEATH AND DE- STRUCTION. TITUSVILLE, Pa., June 7.—Over a hundred lives lost, $2,000,000 worth of property de- stroyed, hundreds of homes in ruins and thousands of helpless and despairing men, women and children is a brief word picture of yesterday’s awful calamity in Titusville. The almost constant rains of the past month caused theearth tobe so thoroughly filled thatit could hold no more. Therefore the heavy Cownpour of Saturday and Saturday night caused most of the small streams to overfiow.their banks. Earlyin the evening Church Run, in the northern part of the city, gave much trouble. About midnight Oil Creek began to suddenly and rapidly rise. Sosud- den was the inundationthat the food was on before the residents were aware of the danger, and not more than half of them managed to reach higher ground. The suddenness of the rise was also due to the giving way of the huge mill dam of Thompson Eldred, at Spartansburg, about seven miles from this city. The lake made by this dam was one-half mile in length by one-quarter mile in breadth, and the great flood thus sud- denly let loose made of this valley ina few moments a roaring torrent. At 2o’clock in the morning a heavy explo- sion, followed ~ several others, were heard. Immediately a streak of fame fully two hundred feet high plerced the inky dark ness and threw a glaring light over the angry water. At once the cry rang out that the Crescent Oil Refinery Co., owned by Schwartz & Co., close to the north bank of the East End, was on fire. Never before did a fire seem to spread so 14 and in less than three minutes from the time the explosion was heard the vast plant was aflame. Then it was that pandemonium seemed to break loose and terror reigned. Thou- sands of persons rushed pell mell through the Streets, tumbling over and knocking each other down in their endeavors to escape from what they appeared to imagine was the crack of doom. The bright light thrown on the surroundings revealed a truly appall- ing sight. Ontheroofsand in the windows of the upper stories of most of the houses in the flooded districts appeared men, women and children, dressed mostly in night- clothes, and all piteously appealing for aid. Clinging to tiie drift-wood, timbers and other debris as they were borne onward down the stream were scores of human beings, their white and terror-stricken faces and desperate struggles and cries for aid combin- ing to create impressions never to be for- gotten. About one hour from the time the Crescent works took fre another alarm was sounded. Oll on the creek, spilled by the water over- turning a tank located sOme distance up- stream, hadtaken fire,and the expanse of the creek fora number of acres square was all a solid blaze. This blaze soon spread tothe International Oil Works, owned by J. P. Thomas & Co., and they were soon ina blaze. Then came the large refining plant and soap factory of Rice & Robinson, which the flames ina short time reached and consumed. The wind was in the right quarter, and on sped the fire, arriving in due time at the Oll Creek refinery and wax plant—as fine a one as was in this country and only recently completed. Never in the history of Titusville has sucha scene of desolation presented itself as was unfolded tothe gaze this morning. As your representative entered the main thorougn- fare the first sight witnessed was four men carrying the dead body of a man on a stretcher. Within fifteen minutes the sight became so common that it ceased to occasion any surprise. Atthe present writing it is estimated that fully 100 persons have been either Growned or burned to death. The money loss will run from _ $1,500,000 to $2,000,000. An idea of the amount of territory covered by the flood and fire can be obtained when it is stated that over two miles were destroyed. Ihis ineludes ratlroads factories, refineries, private dwellings, etc. As near as can be ascertained the following is the list of bodies recovered as well as the names of the missing: THE DEAD.

THE DISASTER’S ORIGIN, George Stephens, a prominent merchant here,says the fire was caused by a spark from a passing train on the Western New York & Pennsylvania Rallroad, which ignited the oll in a tank alongside the track. 0 oll set fire to everything. Mechanic street was known as a resident street for the poorer Classes and was simply shut out of existence. Not a vestige of a dwelling on the street re- mains standing. This is where the greatest loss of life occurred.

OTHER POINTS. CORRY DEVASTATED BY A HEAVY CLOUDBURST— = HEAVY RAINS, Corry, Pa., June 6.—The worst storm that ever visited this section set in at 9 o’clock Saturday night and soon developed in- to a deluge. The storm culminated in a cloud-burst and water literally fell in waves. After the first onset the storm abated somewhat of its fury “hoy the downpour was continuous. In less than an hour the eastern end of the city was under water. The worst was reached at 11 0o’clock, when First avenue, Main street, the railroad yards and Center street were filled with roarin water, it being from 1 to 3 feet deep, and al emptying into the flats in the eastern portion ofthe city. There many people were being rescued from their homes in the best way possible. The police force was stationed a greater part of tbe time at the Union Depot where the water had surrounded the building, and was 2 feet deep and running at arapid rate. Manyin attempting to cross were thrown into the water and carried some distance before they could be rescued by the officers. There was no loss of life and but few injured. The south side ofthe city pre- sents a sad appearance, but the eastern por- tion is still worse. Sidewalks are carried away and the roads in places gullied from 4 to 6 feet deep. Nearly every basement in the business portion of the city was flooded, also many ofthe stores. The loss on stock to our merchants is very heavy. It is safe to sa that the loss throughout the city will reac ,000. The storm was general throughout this locality, and in the country districts the loss can hardly be estimated. The roads are impassable, besides, and everything in the path of the food was swept away. Bridges and culverts on all raijroads centering here have been carried 7 The companies have employed all available help and are fast repairing the damage. The great stone cul- vert at the east end of the city was carried away, and will be a heavy loss to the Erie Co. AT MEADVILLE. MEADVILLE, Pa., June 6.—The midday rain of Saturday developed into a flood by evening and brought great destruction upon the city. In this city Mill Run overfiowed its banks and swept the whole business portion of the city demoralizing a dozen or more bulldings and entailing a total loss of $150,000.

Why Thomas Regan Was Fined $10 by Judge Paxson This Morning. Judge Paxson had 71 cases beforehim in the Second District Police Court this morning. Most of the cases were routine offenders and Sunday and Saturday night rolster- ers. Thomas Regan was fined $10 for disturbing the peace of a drunken man. Officer St. John narrated the story of Re- gan’s Offense. A lady and gentleman in- formed the officer that a man was going through the pockets ofa drunken man inthe gutter on Christy avenue, between Fifth and Sixth streets yesterday afternoon. Officer St. John hurried to the spot and caught Regan .- hastening away from the prostrate inebriate. When Regan was asked what he was doing to the manhe replied that he way trying to wake him up. Officer St. John hela fast to Regan and examined the condition of the drunkard. His pockets wereturned inside out and rified. Officer St. John grasped the suspicious circumstances inone picture and arrested Regan for disturbing the peace. TWIN OITY EXPRESS. St. Louis to Minneapolis, St. Paul and the Northwest.

The First Organized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Elliot avenue, between Benton and Montgomery streets was dedicated yesterday morning. The church was erected several yearsago, but the dedication was deferred until the debt was removed. Elder Joseph Smith made abrief address to the Sunday-school class previousto the dedication services, which were opened with a hymn and an address by Elder Smith. Tke chairman of the Building Committee then read his report and gavea sketch of the church’s struggle for existence. Elder J. W. Gillen, the former pastor, who is shortly to gO on a missionary tour to Europe, then delivered the dedication sermon. He commented upon the rule to delay dedication unt the edifice was free of all debt, and pointed out as an in- Stance wherein the absence of this rule had transformed a church of God into the haunt of the devil, the old Presbyterian Church, Fourteenth street and Lucas place, now a theater. Hetracedthe development of the Mormon Church from the heresies of the early church, until the angel of God came to Joseph Smith April 6, 1830, and ordained him to reorganize the Church of God. Elder C. H. Jones gave the benediction. In the evening Elder Joseph Smith preached. PITTSBURG CRUSHED COKE Investigate it before buying your fuel; save 80 per cent. Office, 704 Pine street.

WHAT WILL FOLLOW IF RALLS CASTS THE DECIDING VOTES Congressman Norton and Champ OCOlark Making the Canvass of Their Lives— Heard to Be Renominated To- Morrow Without Opposition—Delegates Passing Through—Delaney’s Return. The contest for the Democratic Congress- fonal nominationin the Ninth District has reached an exceedingly high stage, and this will last until next Saturday, when the last of the counties will choose its delegates. Such is the condilion of affairs in the distrtct that gubernatorial candidate Dick Dal- ton and his supporters are becoming alarmed, and the reports from that section show that they have reason to feel uneasy. The District is composed of Ralls, Audrain, Crawford, Gasconade, Lincoln, Montgomery, Pike, St. Charles, and Warren counties, and itis reliably Democratic. Dick Norton, the present member, wants to succeed himself, and he is warmly opposed by Champ Clark of Pike County. Where Dalton has reason to feel alarmed is in the strong probability that Ralls County may have to decide the fight between these two aspirants. Ralls is Dalton's own county, and if it goes to Clark the friends of Norton will set up a howl and vice versa if it goes to Norton. In other words Ralis, ifitis the deciding county, will leave Dalton in a sition somewhere between Beelzebub and the deep, deep sea. All the counties have held primaries exceptin Crawford and Ralls Dountles. Crawfo elects its five delegates next Friday and Ralls will elect seven the next day. Both Clark and Norton are claiming these two counties and the primary elections will bs lively from start to finish. RUNNING A CLOSE RACE. As matters stand now Norton has Lincoln, with 10 delegates; Montgomery, 8; St. Charles, 9; and Warren, 2; while Clark has Pike, with 18; and Audrain, 11. Gasconade has elected two uninstructed dele- gates. If Clark carries the five votes of Crawford County and his friends declare he will, Ralls will have to settle the squabble. Already Norton’s friends have recorded a protest against the Ralls County Committee in refusing to give him time to make a canvass. He asked that the primary be postponed and the request was refused. f he should be defeated by Kalls thers is every reason to believe that ‘his friends in St. Charles, Lincoln and Montgomery Counties would resent it. Congressman Norton was seen this morn- ing and answering a question said he was reasonably sure ofthe nomination. He could not say whether Ralls would have a deciding vote or not. That will depend largely on wha Crawford does next Friday, he said. ‘‘lI am in favor of Dalton’s nomination,’’ he sald, and so are my people. What will your friends do if Ralls should get the deciding vote and record it for Clark? he was asked. „Really I have no idea what they would do. In fact, I have had no means of ascertaining, How Committeeman Delaney Stands. State Democratic Committeeman Thomas J. Delaney of Springfield is in the city to- day, having just returned from Washington, where he was in consultation with Congress- man John T. Heard, who represents what is now the Seventh District. Prior to the passage of the redistricting bill Mr. Delaney was in the Thirteenth District, which overcame a Ke- — majority of 2,500 in 1890 and elected ongressman Fyan to succeed Farmer Wade’’ by fully 2,400 majority. The cam- paign was largely managed by Committee- cal fights ever made in the State. The new Congressional bill placed Committeeman Delaney’s county in the Heard district. State Committeeman John D. Tolson, who resides in Howard county, is in the same district and atthe next State Convention either Delaney or Tolson will be retired. The Democrats in the southern part of the district are solid for Delaney, but it appears that Tolson wants to remain in the State organization. Mr. Delaney when asked to-day if hein- tended to de a candidate for re-election to the committee said: ‘‘If Mr. Tolson who hails fromthe other endof the district is in the race I shall decline to let my name go be- fore the district caucus. Mr. Tolson Is older in years than myself and has had much more experience on the State Committee. On the other hand if he is not in the race I will will - ingly accept a re-election to the State organ- ization.’’ Of late Committeeman Delaney has fre- quently been mentioned as a strong proba- bility for the chairmanship of the committee to succeed C. C. Maffitt. This is of course based on the idea that he will be returned to the committee. Will Be Heard by Acclamation. The Seventh Congressional District Demo- cratic Convention will be hela to-morrow in Sedalia. This is Congressman John 1. Heard's district and he will be re- nominated by acclamation. No op- position of any kind has developed and the delegates will nominate him with a whoop and then adjourn. The district under the new arrangement is a peculiarly shaped section of the State. It starts at Howard County, taking in allits townsnips, and then runs West, takingin Boone, Then it takes a turn and swallows Pettis, Benton, Polk, Greene Counties. It is de most remarkably constructed district and it rejoices in a 4,500 Democratic majority. Ihe Greene County delegation en route to the convention reached the city this morning and spent the day at the Laclede. The dele- ates are M. M. Wilkerson, A. A. Johnson, be - Miller, „ IL. Atkinson, F. O. Love and Thomas Hargraves. To get to their district convention they have to spend nearly twenty-four hours in travel by rail. At the hotel they met Committee. man Delaney of Springfield.. He informed too busily engaged in Washington to attend the convention. The delegation will leave for Sedalia to-night. WEDDING drs.

It isevident that the former opponents, now the leading supporters of BLAINE— such men as PLATT, QUAY, and CaAmM- ERON—are using him at present as a bludgeon to down HARRISON, without any assurance or any reason to hope that he willaccept a nomination obtained ‘‘by a scratch’’ and after a bitter fight. Mr. BLAINE is under no obligation to accept such a nomination, and after all he has said and done he is free to reject it and cannot afford to accept it. He can say truly that the use of his name was not only unauthorized but publicly forbidden by him and he will be free to retire from public life with the unique honor of being the only American who was ever in a situ- ation to reject with unquestioned propriety the tendered nomination of the party in power. The situation,therefore, is that the anti- Harrison men are fighting only to knock out HARRISON by proving that there is a nominating majority of the convention against him and they are using BLAINE’s popularity for this purpose only, with very little prospect of getting a vote 99 near unanimity as will secure BLAINE’S acceptance, while the Harrison men are fighting with the intent and prospect of preventing BLAINR’s acceptance, even if they fail to re-nominate HARRISON. Who will accept the nomination after it shall have been,tendered to and declined by BLAINE? Not HARRISON surely. Todo so would put him in the second term race with the brand of his own party’s rejec- tion and dislike distinctly traced upon his battle-flag. Who else could take up the rejected nomination with any show of suc- cess under the circumstances, when the fight against HARRISON is so plainly a pro- test of the party masses against its own administration’s policy, a strong effort to evade the issues presented by the adminis- tration’s pet measures? Ir seems to us that the party’s only choice of a promising path out of this muddle is between a spontaneous nomina- tion of BLAINE so unanimous that he can- not refuse it, and an agreement among the leaders upon a compromise candidate and the withdrawing of both BLAINE and HARRISON’sS names before the first ballot. And whether this compromise candidate be SHERMAN, McKINLEY, REED or any Western man except ALLISON, he will havethe Harrison load to carry, which the party can get rid of entirely by nom- inating BLAINE only. MASTER OF THE SITUATION. The point which the Harrisonites urge most persistently against BLAINE’S can- didacy is that his old enemies and not his friends are forcing him to run and have charge of his nomination campaign. A moment’s consideration of this objection will convince any one that the Harrison- itesare stupidly bringing out the strong- est argument in favor of Mr. BLAINn’s candidacy. It is remarkable that the true significance of this feature of the cam- paign has been so generally overlooked and that the Harrison advocates instead of the Blaine shouters have attempted to make the most of it. If one element more than any other made BLAINE a dangerous candidate for his party and contributed to the loss of New York and of the election in 1884 it was the old Stalwart enmity towards him. Now the friends of CONKLING are the friends of Mr. BLAINE, and PLATT, QUAY, CAME- RON, REED, all of the influential politi- cians who have been his enemies for years, are fighting on his side and shout- ing themselves hoarsein his praise. On the other hand, his old friends, whom cir- cumstances have thrown into the Harrison column are still proclaiming their admi- ration and friendship for him. It this means anything at all it means the wiping outof the obstructions that have stood in BLAINE’s way heretofore and with his nomination the practical union of all party forces in his support. Whether happy fortune or shrewd ma- nipulation has guided the course of events the situation from the standpoint of poli- tics is perfect for Mr. BLAINE. Not even the dramatic impressiveness which he loves 80 well is lacking. Despite the fact that he has en- deavored to push away the nomination a large section of his party is trying to force it upon him. His ancient enemies are clamoring for his nomination, and the man of whose administration he was a part can scarcely command the perfunctory support of those bound to him by the strongest ties of political gratitude. Is it any wonder that the temptation to again try the tide of fortune is too strong to be resisted? Should the movement in his favor fail to overwhelm all opposition he can still retire with honor and probably with the satisfaction of defeating a despised rival. Should it sweep the convention the nomination will come to him as an honor forced upon him by the unanimous desire master of the situation. mm Ir is @ little odd that Mr. Jome W. Fos- TER has not been ‘‘mentioned’’ by the Mr Minnesota 9 less . 5 ee * 5 ey but the man in the party who best fitted for the difficult position is not thought of at all. The reason, however, is very plain. Mr. Fostzer is not much of a politician, but he is a very skillful diplo- mate. “Hence he is not eligible for a diplomatic position. THAT ancient presidential plug who en- ters every race with a whoop and ends with a fall-down, JOHN SHERMAN, is being groomed as a dark horse for the Minneapolis event by a lot of antiquated political trainers. If it is a cold day at Minneapolis and no other candidate is in sight, when the time comes to nominate, SHERMAN may get there. , exes: 1 = . NOTHING can be urged against JQHN SHERMAN asa Republican candidate. He is a man of eclectic thought, having at one time or other in his long career agreed with the advocates of every idea sane or in- sane which has made any stir in polities. Every Republicap can point with pride to some part of the old Senator’s record. — . . — Tux SuNDAY Post-DIsPATCH was not only larger than any otherlocal news- paper issued -yesterday, but it had more news, more and finer illustrations, more and better special articles than any other.

Working the Hotel Check Racket in a Wholesale Way. New YorK, June 6.—A clever scheme to beat several of the first-class hotels in this city was unfolded at Jefferson Market Police Court Saturday. Although the pilfering has been going on for over six months, it was only discovered the other day by Proprietor Taylor of the st. Denis, In December last a small parcel was left by a stranger and a metal check given in exchange for it. A few days after the stranger returned for it, say - ing he had lost the check, but as another clerk was on duty, the pastage was refused. Proprietor Taylor found it contained an Ap- pleton’s Guide, stuffed with diamonds, jewelry and pawn tickets, and placed it in his safe. The parcel remained there until last Thurs- day, when Taylor learned that strenuous ef- forts were being made to recover it. Then he reported the matter to Inspector Steers. The first clew was obtained from a metal check manufacturer, who said he had received an order for several hundred checks from the St. Denis, but Manager Taylor de- nied giving the order. Having obtained a good description of the customer the de- tectives then visited the Cortland Printing Co. of No. 62 Cortland street, where they round the same man had ordered 2,000 dinner checks on the Gilsey House. The man was recognized as Nathaniel Akerman, a green- goods man, and he was arrested Friday. He eee the name of his confederates as Burt orrows, the check clerk of the St. Denis; Orrin J. Ott, cashier in the Glilsey House Cafe, and Charles Loew, assistant Cashier in the same hotel. Ott and Borrows were ar- rested, but Loew fied, Akerman told that their scheme was to give the baggage checks to express com- panies for collection of the beggnge, while the dinner checks were used in the Glisey cafe. When the checks were for sarge amounts Ott sepa smaller ones into the till, pocketing the balance: Manager Brock- way says that 600 174 have thus been dis- posed of, at a loss of $1,000 to $1,200 to the otel.

It now looks as if the present river troubles would develop intoa much more general and extensive struggle between capital and labor than the late strike proved. As is well- Known, the present state of affairs grew out of an order issued by President Mason of the Anchor Line that all engineers in the employ of the company must withdraw from the American Federation of Labor, as he claims that order has been making trouble among his employes and endeavoring to dictate to the company. The engineers object to the trouble being Spoken ofasa strike. They say it isa lock- out—not a strike. They have not quit work because they want more pay, they argue, but are prevented from working because they be- long to a union. In an issue of this kind they claim they will have the moral support and will have the financial assistance of organized labor every- where. Their local allies are the federated river unions of. St. The river employes are now deins generally organized. There are the marine engineers tostart with. Then come along the marine firemen, white and colored; the roustabouts (Inland Seamen’s Protective Union), and the longshoremen, the steam- boat mates, the deck hands and the coal passers. Most of these organizations are of quite recent formation, and all are members of the American Federation of Labor, They are in the fullest sympathy with the marine engineers and will keep step to their music. The Sst. Louis pilots are not in it, but last week the Harbor Pilots’ Asso- Clation of East st. Louis was organized under an American Federation charter, and, of course, is counted on for aid when the pinch comes. The only union which has had oppor- tunity of expressing itself on the issue made by the Anchor Line on the marine engineers is the F I whose members, it was stated at Marine Engineer headquarters to- day, showed their sympathy with the marine engineers b walking off the Anchor Line boat at the foot of Market street this morn- ing. The marine engineers confidently count on similar actionon the part of the other unions, One after the other, so that the result in a very few days will, itis claimed by them be a universal and a prolonged tie-up of boats in this harbor. The situation. to-day is, however, one of ex 2 The unionists are apparently doing nothing and are saying very little. They are keeping the men down and are pre- venting such outbreaks as rendered police intervention necessary last week. Before taking a decided stand they want to talk with Mr. Gompers, President of the American Federation of Labor. He is expected here on Wednesday night and on Thursday will ad- Gress himself to an adjustment of the dim culty, ifan adjustment is possible. If not he will let ‘‘loose the dogs of war. Capt. Mason was asked this morning about the difficulty. There was nothing new, he said. There was not much doing this morn- ing, and he had no rticular trouble in get- ting men for all he had to do. He had no fears of the outcome. At present there was so little doing in the river business that his company would not lose much by lying idle altogther, but he doubtea whether the men could afford it. At any rate he did not pro- pose to have them dictate how the company should run its business. The Marine Engineers contradict the story published as coming from Dick Talbot, to the effect that the association tried to bribe him to come off the Crystal City. They claim that the offer was just the other way. Dick came to them, they allege, and said that he would leave the Crystal City for $25. They thought that Dick rated himself too high, and the trade was not consummated. THE GREAT SHOW. Immense Crowds See the Street Pageant and Opening of the Circus.

SHE SAYS BEN JOHNSON, ITS FATHER, INSTIGATED THE DEED. The Baby Was Choked to Death—Robert Johnson Arrested by the Police to Await the Result of the Coroner’s In- quest on the Deathof Charles Miller— Police News. The body of a little colored girl 13 months old was found by Officer McWay this morning in Mill Oreek No. 2 under the Ash- land avenue bridge about 400 feet east of Marcus avenue. Thechild had been drowned but whether it fell off the bridge or was mur- dered was not known. The only marks of vio- lence on the body were some bruises on the head and face that might have been made in falling from the bridge, which is some 10 feet above the water. The water itself is only 5 or 6 inches deep. The child wore a brown dress, blue underskirt, b'ack stockings and button shoes, and her hair was tied together with a red string. The police investigated the case this morning and secured sufficient evidence to warrantthe arrest of Eugenia Johnson, a colored girl, 17 years of age, living with her parents at 4230 Mamtt avenue. When taken to the station and charged with the murder of the child she broke into tears and confessed. She said he had been living with Ben Johnson, a negro, and that he was the father of the child. He had told her quite frequently, she said,to do away with it andif she could not dispose of it by giving it away to get rid of it some other way. She said she went to the Ashland Avenue Bridge early this morning and while no one was near she choked the baby until it lay still and she then threw it over the bridge into the creek. She ran home and since then had been terrified and horror-stricken atthe deed. She was glad to confess and ease her conscience. The police at once started onahunt for Ben Johnson, but had not found him up to a late hour this afternoon. Suspect Foul Play. Charles Miller fell from the roof of Coxe’s livery stable, 1431 Franklin avenue, at 2 o’clock this morning and died at the City Hos- pital at 2:55 a. m. His head was badly mashed and his injuries were necessarily fatal. The man is a stranger, and it is said that he spent the dayin drinking. Hehas been sleeping at the stable, so the police ofthe Third District say, and from surface appearances Miller would be said to have fallen from the roof by accident. But Officer Meehan arrested Rob- ert Johnson of 805 Franklin avenue this morn- ing to insure his presence at the inquest, and in his report of the arrest the officer gives a series of circumstances in connection with Miller’s death which the Coroner will be obliged to sift. Johnson, who lives with his wife and family at 805 Franklin avenue, was the only person with Miller at the time of his fall,and he had been in Miller’s company allday. The officer further states that John- son slept at home with his family every night except last night, when he and Miller re- turned from their wandegings and went to the stable, where Miller is said to have been passing the nights which he spent In the city. The two men wenttothe roof over the hay- loft or second story, Officer Meehan alleges, and shortly thereafter Miller toppled to the street. Miller is sajd to have had money, and for these reasons Officer Meehan arrested Johnson until the Coroner could in- quire into the causes of Miller's death. Unless stronger evidence than has as yet been dis- covered is developed atthe inquest Johnson will scarcoly be held by the Ooroner’s 12 The police are now at work investigating the case to ascertain whether there was really any foul play. Dodd Let Off With Imprisonment. An instance ofthe system of pleading car- ried on in the Criminal Court was given this morning in the case of John Dodd, charged with murder in the first degree for killing Andrew Cheney with a knife-thrust through the heart on Dec. 20, 1890. Sophie Anthony, a colored girl, was the object of the affections of both John Dodd and Andrew Cheney. Dodd quarreled with her on several occa- sions of keeping Cheney’s company On the night of Dec. 20 she attended a ball and after — with Cheney a number of times went ome with him. Dodd went tothe girl’s home, 3500 Papin street, and when she appeared, he went into her room. After a he drew a knife Cheney ran to her also stabbed by the jealous lover. from the house followed by Dodd, caught up with him on the next block and stabbed him to the heart. He died instantly. Returning told the girl he new lover and that she would nd his dead body down the street a block. He repeated this statement to several persons he met be- fore he was arrested. Inthe Criminal Court he entered a plea of not gulity when the case was first called and Joseph Furling was appointed as his attor- ney. This morning Attorney Furling an- nounced that he had induced his client to ac- cept a sentence of fifteen years in the penl- tentiary on a p of murder in the second degree and Mr. Bishop recommended that the plea be accepted, ag the State had no witnesses who had seen the Killing, and the chances of a conviction ona charge of murder in the first degree were not very good. Dodd was accordingly sentenced. Peter Nicholson, Jr. Assaulted. Peter Nicholson, Jr., secured a warrant this morning for the arrest of Joseph McCreedy, a conductor on the Vandeventer avenue car line, on a charge of assault and battery. Mr. Nicholson appeared to be badly used up, lie is still very weak from his long confinement of fiVe months in his room and walks witb the aid of a cane. Last Friday evening at about 5o’clock he stopped a car on Vandeventer avenue and being unable to make haste in gouing on, he delayed the car afew minutes. efore he was fairly on the step, he said, the conductor started the car. Mr. Nicholson said he asked the conductor what he meant by such actions, and the fare collector, he says, made an insolent reply and cu him, He said he spoke his mind to the con- ductor, and the employe attacked him, The conductor, Mr. Nicholson said struck at ‘him with his fist and the blow fell upon Mr. Nicholson’s up- lifted hand and broke his thumb.

How They Commenced Their Base Ball Careers—Jack McAuliffe to Commence Taining for His Battle With Billy Myer — Base Ball, Pugilism, Racing and Sporting News of All Kinds. St. Louis has produced a number of first - class ball-players in past years, but this year has quite a list of men in the twelve-clab league. Patrick Tebeau, Cleveland’s third baseman, captain and manager, is a native and resident of this city. When not piaying tives, who are almost unlimited. Te- beau acquired his ability as a player on the vacant lots in this neighborhood, He used to cover third base for the old Sham- rocks, which in its day ranked among the strongest amateur teams in this city. George, Pat’s brother, Jack O’Connor, who is now catching for Tebeau in Cleveland, and a number of others who afterwards drifted into the professional ranks, composed the club, which used to play every Sunday afternoon in Goose Hollow, on Fourteenth and Buchanan streets. Pat Tebeau started, out professionally in the Western League. Anson signed him after witness- ing Tebeau’s work, but Pat was not played very regularly and was later on signed by Cleveland. It was with the latter club that he made his record, and to-day he ranks with the best third basemen on the diamond. His success in handling the spiders, as the Clevelands are called, is also well known. This season Pat is playing a stronger game than ever, both in the field and with the stick. He played his frst professional game in this city this season and his admirers turned out in large numbers to welcome him. Charley King, the old Brown Stocking can- non ball pitcher, who is now handling the sphere forthe New York Glants, is another well-known st. Louis player. He comes from the south end ofthecity. King, like Tebeau, Started out professionally in the Western League, where he and Jack O’Connor became noted asa battery. Vonder Ahe secured King about the time he disposed of Bob Caruthers and Dave Foutz to Brooklyn. King soon ranked with the great pitchers of the Associa- tion. When the Brotherhood war broke out King went to Chicago with Comiskey, and last season he pitched for Pittsburg’s Pirates. Hie demanded too much salary this season, and Pittsburg concluded to let him go. New York secured him and so tar has been doing most of New York’s winning work as far as the pitcher’s box is concerned. Billy Joyce, who covers third base for John Ward’s Brooklyn wonders is another crack player who was raised in this city. Bill is a native of Carondelet, and it was on the commons in that section of the city he first commenced to play Dall. From here he driftea to Texas, where he played with various clubs in the State League. When iskey recommended Joyce to Ward, and the latter gave him a trial. Joyce jumped to the tront immediately, especially as a batter, and soon ranked with the first hitters of the country. Last season Billwas with Boston’s famous Asso- ciation champions, but he unfortunately broke his leg in the middle of the season and in consequence did not play any more. This season he has not startled the country either with the stick or in the field, but his friends claim that be will round up all right now that the hot weather has set in. Jimmy Galvin, Pittsburg’s pitcher, is alsoa native or St. Louis. Galvin is the oldest pitcher on the diamond. He made his local reputation with the Stocks and St. Louis Reds, the late Frank Flint being his catcher. The old man, as Galvin is called in Pitts- burg, has not rounded up yet this season. He has pitched in a major league longer than any man who ever played ball, and he is still effective when he gets in trim. Jack O'Connor, who has been doing such good work behind the bat for Cleveland this season, also resides in North St. Louis during the winter. O’Connor, after playing with the old Shamrocks asa catcher and short- stop, drifted into the Western League; from there he went to Columbus, and after several seasons with the Buckeyes he was expelled last year for conduct unbecoming a gentieman. Jack then joined the Western sao gee, and this season was signed by Cleve- and Bug Holliday, Cincinnati’s great center fielder, also hails from this city. Bug started out professionaliy, like all the rest, in the Western League, and soon stood second tonone as an outfielder and hitter. When Cincinnati released Corkhill, Bug was se- cured as his successor. To-day he ranks ron the best outfielders in the business. iliy Robinson, the Brown Stocking second baseman, while not a native of St. Louls, makes this city his home. Robbie is now with Washington. Lew Whistler, Baltimore’s first baseman, also residesin this city, although very few are aware of it. Lew was with the New York Giants for several years st until this sea- son, when he signed with Baltimore. His forte is with the stick. Perry Werden, the Browns’ big first baseman, is another St. Louis player who has been holding his own this season. Breitenstein, the Browns’ south paw pitcher, is also a resident ofthis city. LYNCH NOT POPULAR WITH PLAYERS. Although Lynchis the greatest umpire in the business heis not popular in the profes- sion. Players generally have little use for himon accountof his dignified bearing and the chilly manner in which he meets all their advances to sociability on or off the field, Lynch has hardly a speaking acquaintance with the men he works with every day. There isaremarkable resemblance in personal ap- pearance between Bid McPhee and tle dig- nified umpire. REPENTING AT LEISURE. Tommy Lovett, the pitcher, hasabout come to the conclusion that he had been suffering froma temporary aberration of the mind when he refused to sign with Brooklyn fora salary of $3,500 per year. He has already lost $1,100 this season — his stubbornness. Tom mie failed to tumble to the fact that ninety- nine out ofevery hundred players saw ata lance that this is not the ball 2 year. ‘he magnates have the best of it by several very large-sized points. Eleven hundred dol- lars’ worth of experience is heartrending.

His grip on the reins reminded one of a pretty woman playing a piano with the graceful ana delicate touch you always read about in musical ritt - cisms. But that seemingly soft touch of Mur- phy’s isa grip of iron when he wishes. Then you can see in his finish great power with no apparent effort.“ Little did the trainer know how hard the turf writers of the East labored to describe the finishes made by Hay- ward and Murphy, and how these writers know itcannot be done. They are what one writer has termed the ‘‘statuesque’’ riders— those who never tear a finish into tatters like Garrison. The latter bas no grace, but is the most earnest riderin the East. But every one attempting to imitate the Garrison finish bas falled. TRACK TALK. Dave“ Gideon, who had second call on Martin Bergen’s services, has waived his claim. Ihe Gambrinus Stable yesterday sold Costa Rica to J. Gillespie for $2,000 and purchased the 2-year-old colt Sir Carr from F. L. Whit more for something like $4,000. Matt Allen, the Ehret trainer, now consid- ers Sam Doggett better than Ike Murphy, and seldom puts the colored Archer up except in distance races with small fields, The owners of the Gambrinus Stable offered J. P. Smallwood $20,000 for his horse Aloha yesterday. Mr. Smailwood would not enter- tain the offer, whereupon the brewers wanted to purchase the running gu ualities of the St. Mungo horse for this year for $10,000, and, of course, this offer was also declined. THE RING New Tonk, June 6.—Jack McAuliffe will be- gin training in a few days for his ight with Billy Myer. The lightweight champion and his sparring partner, Jimmy Nelson, leave to-day for Hampden, Me. They will return in time for the Manhattan Athletic Club box- ing show which takes place June 22, On this occasion Jack will spar six rounds with Billy Fraser. After this engagement McAuliffe Will start for Bay st. Loulsto train for his big fight. PUGILISTIC POINTERS.
