MADISON, Wis, September 9.-In the
Democratic State Convention to-day, the
Committee on Permanent Organization
presented the name Of Hon. Jas. Doolittle,
Of Racine, for President, and that of one
delegate from each Congressional district
for Vice President. .,
In taking the chair Mr.. Doolittle made
a lengthy speech, denouncing the fnan-
Cial policy Of the Republican party, es.
peCially the demonetization OF silver. At
the conclusion Of which the Committee
on Resolutions reported a platform. AZ
ter the adoption Of Il 9 resolutions, Dele
gate Lees, Of Buffalo county, moved the
nomination of Hon. Alex. Mitchell, Of
Milwaukee, for Governor by acclamation.
Carried amid great applause.
When the name Of Mr.. Mitchell, who is
now in Europe, was presented to the con-
vention, grave doubts were expressed by
some as to his acceptance OF the nomina-
ton. When the convention reassembled
in the evening the name OF VIM. V. Villas
was proposed for Lieut.. Governor, with
the understanding that II Mitchell de-
clined the name Of Mr.. Villas should be
substituted. During roll call MIR. Villas
entered the hall, and positively refused 10
allow his name to be used. The ballot
was therefore declared informal, and a
formal one taken, resulting in the choice
OF Geo. 81. King. OF Green county.
Samuel Ryan, Of 0ukagmie, was nomi-
mated for Secretary of State, Andrew
Hahn, Of Winnebago, for Treasurer, Mont
gomery Smith, Of Iowa, for Attorney Cen
eral, by acclamation, as was also the nomi-
nation of Edward Soaring, Of Rock, for
Superintendent Of Public Instruction.

DEKALH, Miss, September 9-The trial
OF Henry J. Gully for the murder Of Cor.
nelia Chisholm was continued to-day.
+. @. Sinclair, witness for the State,
swore that on the Goth of April, 1877, he
was Sheriff OF Kemper county; that war.
rants were placed in his hands for the
arrest of Chisholm and other parties,
charged with the murder Of John W.
Gully. He deputized several parties to
accompany him and aid in making the
arrests, thinking he might need aid.
He found Chisholm at home and told
him his business. Chisholm laughed at
It. He placed men to guard Chisholm.
a crowd during the morning collected
about the house, among them Henry
Gully. Chisholm sent for him 10 come to
the house. On arriving Chisholm said to
Gully: "You think killed your brother,
John Gully?" Gully replied: t'If you
didn't kill him, your money hired him
killed" Chisholm did not deny this, but
said: II don't want to die now" Witness
objected to Mcclellan going as guard to
the jail, because he feared some danger
would betall him on account OF his being
q Republican. He knew Mcclellan to be
dtstasteful to the crowd. .
On Cross.examination defendants coun-
sci attempted to show by this witness that
McClelland was distasteful to the crowd,
not because Of his being q Republican but
for other reasons, entirely different, and
principally on account of his being bad
man. heState objected to inrthea in
quiry into the Sherifrs reasons for appre.
hending him. The courtsustained the OBJ
jections.
Witness states that the keys OF the jail
were twisted from his hand while CHS.
holm and family were in the Jail. Did
not see any OF the shooting. He was at
the burial Of John W. Gully. Several
hundred people were present Their &C.
ton caused him to suspect that serious
trouble was brewing. IN
W. A. Hopper, who was introduced by
the State counsel for the prosecution,
asked tine witness il he did rot hear some
one say that Chisholm was being carried
to the Jail SO the crowd could kill him?
Witness replied, no sir.
Are you afraid to testify here ? asked
the counsel.
No, sir.
Didn't you state to me the other day
that YOU heard this ? Ito this the counsel
for defence objeCied.) Ha
Counsel for prosecution: You can
stand aside: We have your private state
ment here in writing.
Several other witnesses have been in
troduced by the State, all OF whose testi-
mony is to establish a conspiracy.

terday, as Robinson's circus was passing
through Canal Dover, two horses standing
in the street, and attached to carriages,
became frightened at the elephats and ran
away, demolishing the vehicles complete
ly. During the excitement and confusion
that followed, the elephants became terri
bly, enraged and broke away from their
keepers. Two OF them were chained to-
gether, one being untamed and vicious.
They tore through the town, screaming
hideously, causing the greatest excite
meut. Services in the church were
brought suddenly to close, and the
whole town was in an uproar. The other
animals became enraged also, one large
lion breaking his cage and coming near
escaping. After considerable length Of
time the elephants were captured and
quiet again restored.

LONDON, September 0.-Sir Stafford
speaking at Exeter yesterday, said that the
outbreak at Cabul appeared to have been
unpremeditated. So far as could be
judged the Ameer has been entirely true
to the British and II was certain that the
assistance he employed would not be re.
fused. There seems to be great doubt, he
said, whether the prompt advance Is pos.
sible.
The military correspondent reviewing
the situation says that twenty-five per
cent OF the native troops on the frontier
have gone on furlough. The season
has been an unusually sickly one, the
hospitals are full OF men unfit for service
by fever and hardships OF the campaign.
There are very few infantry regiments In
the Trans Indus Province, which could
muster Eve hundred men and there Is
probably not cavalry regiment in
Puryab, which could put three hundred
men on parade. The transportation dc.
partments have been broken up and their
reorganization will be difficult. Upwards
OF sixty thousand camels are officially re-
ported to have perished in the late cam
paign.
General Roberts may have sufficient
mules and camels to admit OF the hasty
advance Of brigade in light marching
order, but the government Of India will
have to strain every nerve 10 guard his
communication keep him provisioned.
Unfortunately the regiments in India
nearest to Afghanistan have mostly sui.
tered with cholera and are numerically
weak, the men being debilitated, and they
will require heavy drafts to bring them
up to their war strength, and at least two
months must elapse before the men to
recruit the regiments can arrive from Eng.
land.
News received from Allahabad, through
reliable sources, gives assurance that Gen.
Roberts will be at Cabul in a fortnight.
It is said in military circles at simla that
the 9th Of October Is probably the date OF
the commencement Of forward move
ment, because of the deficiency in wheeled
transportation.
A correspondent at simla says that those
who know the position Of things declare
an advance impossible. It Is reported
that Cabul itself has been sacked by
mob. seIS.

strike Mt Jones aud LaughIins' MIL nj
Pittsburgh.

Evening Telegraph Of Yesterday.
The strike at the American Iron Works
still continues, the laborers OF the early
morning turn Of yesterday having been
joined by all the others except vey few
who will not strike. The have been join
ed also by several higher grades Of labor
ers, who, although they have not handed
in any formal demand, are understood to
be asking for an increase. Such are the
shears.men and their helpers, who receive
81 45 and 81 80 respectively, tthe ash
shovelers and drivers at 81 50 and 81 %,
the chargers at 81 l6 and the dragdowns at
81 80. The whole number Of men out
does not exceed three hundred and fifty.
The absence Of laborers necessitatcr q
complete stoppage Of work in the depart
ment for small rolls. When Telegraph
representative visited the works this
morning, the bar and plate mills were in
operation, and the pudding department,
but there were not enough laborers on
hand to allow these 10 keep on II the strike
continues. The other departments OF the
mill where laboring men are not needed
were OF course running as usual.
The strikers are orderly and quiet and
seem to be firm in their demand. They say
that their present pay will not be enough
to keep their families during the winter,
and they think that the condition OF the
market will justify the asked.for increase.
They have held no'meeting since last
evening when the usual resolutions were
passed.
On the other hand, the proprietors say
that the condition Of the market will not
warrant them in paying their men what
they ask. They say that they are paying
the usual rates, and they think that in a
few days the places Of the strikers can be
filled with new men. They have not re.
duced the wages since 1877, when the
price OF iron was Just what II is now, and
they seem to think that in short time, il
the price Of iron increases, the wages can
be advanced.
The movement has not spread to- any
other South Side mills as far as could be
learned, although the mon in most or all
Of them are paid at the samo rate as Jones
