SAN FRANCISCO, August 26.-COlonel
Scott and the Texas and Pacific railroad
party reached Los Angeles, yesterday,
and were enthusiastically received by
the entire population.
There are unauthenticated rumors of
fresh diamond discoveries in North
Arizona, but are considered doubtful.
Mining stocks are much stronger. The
facilities for the transportation of the
new wheat crop are wholly inadequate
in many sections of the State. The
crop is the largest ever harvested in the
State.
The Executive Committee of the
Committee of One Hundred this after
noon rejected the compromise in the
Presidents favor, granting the Central
Pacific a subsidy Of two and a half
million dollars as a consideration for the
abandonment Of the Goat Island projec-

Of encouragement in the con-

Special to the Appeal
LITTLE Rock, August 26.-The joint
conference of the Democratic and Lib
eral and Reform Republican Central
Committees, has resulted in the follow
ing nominations:
Brooks, for Governor; Fulton, negro,
for Secretary of State; o. r. Berry, Au-
ditOr; F. J. Hunt, Treasurer; J. T.
Bearder, Attorney General; Thomas
Smith, Superintendent of Education
3. F. Duval and VIM. NJ. Harman for
Associate Justice of the Supreme Court;
Cook, Superintendent of the Peniten-
tiary, negro; w. J. Hynes, Congress
man at large.
Among Democrats, the action of the
convention is considered most unfortu-
itous, the Brindle faction having
acted very arbitrarily in keeping
Brooks at the head of the ticket. II
the Minstrels do not win it is their OWL
fault, as the Brindles have played into
their hands.

OMAHA, August 26.-The following
will appear in the Omaha Tribune and
ReDu5iicdn tomorrow morning: "The
Government Directors of the Union Pa
cific Railway Company have returned
from their tour Of inspection, and eX-
press themselves pleased with the con-
ditiOn of the road, its equipment, etc,
and they accord to Mr.. Sickles, Gener-
raj Superintendent, great credit for the
efficient manner in which his depart
ment has been conducted.
Preparations for the coming winter
promise success in preventing a renew
al Of the snow blockade. Additional
forces aud sheds are provided for at
every point where snow difficulties are
at ali likely TO occur, and if the Super
intendent is allowed to carry out his
plans for the protection At the govern
meDt. the Directors do not doubt that
the road will be operated during the
coming wintGr without interruption.
They Investigated the full question with
regard TO its relations to the road, its
business and the general developments
of the country along and tributary to
the line, and do not hesitate TO pro-
nounce the contest between the railroad
company anu TIE W HoAlil6 NS"4 NNAAA
pany as utterly indefensible, ana con-
cerning which, they will report Iully 10
the government.
"They feel confident that with proper
management the capacity Of the road Is
equal TO meet the mortgages Of the com
pany, and TO provide for the liquidation
Of the advances made by the govern
ment; but TO do this, the affairs Of the
company must be managed for its own
interests, and not for the gain of indi-
viduals, however connected with the
corporation. a careful and legitimate
business management can put the road
and its earnings in position to
meet all demands upon it, and
the government directors are Of the
opinion that this should be inforced.
The country tributary to the road is de-
veloping rapidly, and everything prom
ises well for the future. Some Of the
existing abuses can be removed and a
strict business management for the in
terest of the corporation can be in
forced In the future"

Latest Intelligence from the Belfast

OF the World Cholera.
LONDON, August 26.-The reported
renewal of the riots at Belfast yesterday
is untrue. On the contrary, all the first
and reinforcement troops lately sent
there are being sent home.
The reports of the condition of cereals
in France are favorable. The crops are
pronounced very good in forty-two de-
partments, good in thirty-seven, passa-
bic in six, good in Corsica, and excellent
in Algeria. Yet the estimates of the
probable yield in America and Eastern
Europe indicate that these countries can
not furnish the customary supplies OF
breadstuffs, and that England and Italy
will require more than usual. The ex-
port from France may possibly exceed
ten millions hectolitres, but it is feared
that the increase of the French taxes on
foreign bottoms viii have a bad effect
on commerce, and restrict the facility OF
transportation.
The cholera has appeared in the val
ley of Cashmere, and is reported to be
raging with great violence.

victed under the enforcement act; in
favor of immigration and for the estab-
lishment of factories for the develop
ment of the State, and pledging the
party TO treat all comers with considera-
ton and justice.
The only excitement during the
morning session was caused by a fierce
and specific attack by L. ]. Mackey
upon the 5olters' ticket and its support
ers, which was vociferously applauded
by the convention. He was especially
severe in his arraignment upon Senator
Sawyer and Attorney Corbin, whose
whole career was scrutinized. The fol-
lowing is the Electoral ticket of the

ST.. LOUIS, August 26.-The COroner's
inquest held yesterday in South st.
Louis, on the body of Alfred Jordan, a
colored boy seven years old, disclosed
the fact that the child died from the eff
fects of repeated whipping inflicted by
Jesse Taylor, Il cOlored woman with
whom the boy lived, who was arrested.
Eight deaths occurred yesterday from
the effects of the heat. The weather
this morning was terribly hot again.
No signs of a change.
A special to the Democrat, from Car

Sheriff of Macoupin county, and nom
inee for reelection, committed suicide
yesterday by shooting himself in the
head. Cause, insanity.
A purely political dispatch, designed
as a special telegram for q Cincinnati
paper, which was sent from here last
night, got into an Associated Press re-
port through a mistake in its address.
The partisan character of the dispatch
should have caused its rejection at once,
as no such telegram has ever been pre-
pared by this Agency.
The stockholders of the st, Louis and
Southeastern Railroad Company, at a
meeting held here to-day, unanimously
ratified the articles of consolidation re-
Gently entered into by that company
with the Evansville, Henderson and
Nashville and Edgefield and Kentucky
roads, by which the roads between here
and Nashville are brought under one

The Times tomorrow will publish a
letter from the Indian Council at the
Cheyenne Agency, which brings the
proceedings down to the thirteenth in
slant. Lone Wolf the principal chief
of the Kiowas, made a speech, in which
he said that before any peace can be
made with the government, the mill
tary must be removed from the country,
Fort Sill abandoned, and the soldiers
sent home. In regard to removing to
Texas, he said they would never be will
ling to remove. The Gamporikas, In
ahados and guerrilla bands Of Mexicans
made that country their raiding ground,
and the KiOWas will never give up their
share Of the spoils.
The council expected to adjourn the
next day after the letter was written.
The weather was frightfully hot again
to-day. About thirty cases of sunstroke
were reported, which probably does not
include more than half the cases that
have occurred. Seventeen inquests were
held, and sixty-ive burial permits grant
ed by the Board of Health.
The strike of the coal miners of st.
Clair county, Illinois, which was sup
posed to have ended some days ago, took
fresh start to-day. At meeting of
the miners near Belleville to-day, it was
decided by sixteen unions represented to
hold out for four cents per bushel, the
price demanded at the outset. This de-
cisiOn viii seriously affect manufacturers
and private consumers here, as st. Louis
draws much the largest amount Of coal
she uses from the mines of st. Clair
county.

Some idea of the extent of the disap-

be obtained from the statement, that up
to to-day, applications have been made
to the Department for over two millions
Of these cards, and about twenty-five
informals have been made by manufac-
turers to supply them after the designs
have been determined on.
