REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION.
10 He Held in Cleveland on Au-
gust 1.
Special to the Star.

Special 10 Jlle DIdrs
COLUMBUS, o., April 20.-The Repub-
lican State Central Committee met here
yesterday and organized by electing
Ashley Brown, of Dayton, Chairman pro
TEN. Representatives were present
from all the districts. ...
Gen. WykoH said the meeting had
been called to fix the time for holding
the State Convention. Gentlemen were
then invited to state whether they were
in favor Of an early or late convention.
MIR. A. G. Sands said he was in favor
OF late convention, not until after the
extra session OF Congress, ii such ses-
sion was held. He thought it would be
we'll not to fix any time tor the cOnYeI-
tion at this meeting.
Representatives from most of the othe
districts stook grounds in favor OF late
convention, that is, somewhere about
the middle Of August. This would give
two weeks in August for organlz ltion,
and SIX weeks for the campaign.
Every one agreed that the people
did not favor a long campaign.
One or two gentlemen suggested
| that II the convention was not to be held
for three months, it was folly to Tx the
time now, while others thought it was

| responsibility and fix the convention
now, and that it should not be- later
than the first week in August. One gem
tleman from the Westeru Reserve said
his people were in favor OF having the
time OF the convention fixed now, and
not too late. Ii this was done they would
know how to act, aud ii developme n Ii
from Washington made it necessary Tor
the Republicans to be Democrats, they
would know how to act.
The representatives from Cleveland
thought the 1st of August was late
enough for the convention.
Gen. Wykoff said he should not con.
sent to act as Chairman OF the Execu-
live Committee this ia |, but his opinion
was that The convention should be held
the 1st OF July. The time was consid-
cred necessary to perfect an organiza.
tion.
Aftor much talk, n motion to call the
| convention August .S WAS defeated.

National Associated Press to the Star.
PHILADELPHIA, April 2O.-The bad
weather to-day had the effect of keeping
the striking engineers pretty generally
at their several houses. AT the Broth
erhoOd Headquarters the Committee OF
Con !erenee has been in session all day,
but no action of any kind looking to.
wards settlement of the difficulty has
been taken.
MIR. Parker, Chairman Of the Commit
tee, states that as matters stand he DOM
see that anything can be done but tC
await communication from The com
pany. So far as the Brotherhood is con.
cerned, they don't mean TO have any
thing to do or say likely to lead TO the
supposition that they desire to COM
promise.

WASHINGTON.

The Treasury Force Reduction.
National Associated Press to the Star.
WASHINGTON, April 2O.-Secretary
Sherman says he never suffered more
pain in his life than he did in the recent
removal OF employees, so many OF whom
were helpless, poor and needy. He
says that his predecessor had testified
and told him that the force must be re-
duced and when he entered the office he
appointed the most trusted officers OF
the Department 10 make examination,
and select those who were either not
needed or were least efficient.
After this was done he held the list
for weeks and handed it over to General
McC Cormick, wheE he became Assistant
Secretary, by whom 1t was carefully eX-
amined. 1t was held until longer delay
was inexcusable. The removals having
been made with the greatest care, the
Secretary.has refused, in every case, to
restore any one on the list, although
some of them had been appointed upon
his recommendation, ana many were
cases uf extreme hardship.
