Convention Proceedings as

Cleveland, o., July S0.-The supporters Of
ex.Mayor Rose, who bolted in the late Re-
publican congressional convention Of the
twentieth district, and who voted to have
nominated G. d. Lockwood for con-
sress, say he has accepted. The
central committee has issued an ad-
dress which condemns in strong terms
the method adopted by the convention which
nominated Amos Townsend, and says that in
the course Of the proceedings of the late con-
gressional convention such frauds were per-
petrated by the free use Of money and hired,
downright repeating as characterized like
nisneuvers in New York in the many years
gone BY by the noted Tweed ring. We
have seen federal patronage bestowed, re-
gsrdless of the peoples wish, but wholly
with reference to the preparation of the
power of the congressional giver. We have
seen free speech threatened and free ballot
denied to Republicans in Republican con-
vention. An appeal is made for the I'M
trammeled rights of every voter to vote his
deliberate choice and have that vote re-
cognized and counted but not nullifed by
fraud

The Training Ship Atlantis.

New York. July 30.-A special Il a st.
Johns, N. F., says the British barkentine,
Girl of Devon, arrived Thursday morning
from Plymouth, England, after passage Of
81 days. She brought in with her large
white, painted fgure.head, which the captain
afirms to be Enthusiastically the head of the
ill,s,arred training ship Atlanta. One no.
ticable feature about the fgure-head is evil
dence of great violence, either by collision
with ice or with floating wreckage The
large metal bolts that were fastened 10 the
cut-water are rudely bent and broken, indi-
eating the application Of a tremendous shock
to the bows of the ship, and the lower part
of the figure is broken and splintered, which
tends to strengthen the theory of collision.

New York, July S0.-In the Narragansett
investigation John Herman, passenger clerk
Of the steamer, was recalled and re-examlned
as to the passenger lists, and the number of
persons on board the steamer on the night
of the collision. He produced the passenger
lists and the number Of persons on board the
steamer on the night OF the collision. He
also produced the passenger lists recovered
from the sunken steamer. A detailed com.
parisou of this passenger list with the
list Of passengers saved and accounted
for as appeared by the company, was made.
This examination resulted In disclosing the
fact that there we're twenty-seven names on
the passenger list which do not appear on
the fist of the saved and lost. There we're
furthermore fourteen names on the passen-
ger list as to which there is strong doubt
whether they appear on the other list or not.
In some of these cases there is q slight re-
sembance between the names on the two
lists, while in others it would require stretch
ofimmagination to discover any resemblance.
The list of passengers saved, lost and ac-
counted for contains 2S5 names, twenty-seyen
of whom do not appear upon that list but
are upon the passenger list. This list shows
that the whole number of passengers could
not have been less than 81, and the adding
offourteen doubtful names may have reached
S26 in all. The probability is that the num-
Der was even larger, as the names Of the
passengers taking state.rooms or berth do
not appear on the regular passenger list. In
answer to question by the inspector, the
witness said he did not think the twenty
seven names on the passenger list should DO
added to the number lost from the Narragan-
sett. He knew of a way in which a number
of tickets we're sold on the fatal trip Of the
steamer could be ascertsined. His book con-
tanning the ticket.liat had never been re.
covered.

AN PUNISHED.
The Social EVIL In lis Worst
Form.

The case of the two loose women,
Dixie Wagner and Minnie Williams.
for insulting a lady, came up in the
police court this morning. Dixie
Wagner was charged with threatening
a young lady on the streets. Minnie
Williams was a sort Of silent accom-.
plice. The details of the affair were
given in yesterdays issue and it is
certainly tie grossest outrage that has
been perpetrated in this city in many
a day. The article written yesterday
created considerable excitement on
the streets, and the demand that they
should be punished to the extent Of
the law met with universal approval.
The case was not tried yesterday.
owing to the absence of the young Ia.
dies who had been insulted, but was
continued until to-day and subpenas
issued for the young ladies and also
for the young man, who was acting as
their escort at the time. They were
all in court to-day, but owing to the
delicaey Of the young ladies, the coun-
sci for the defense agreed to allow the
investigation to go on privately in the
chiefs Office. Dixie Wagner's pres
enCe was waived and the case proceed
ed with only one OF tho defendants,
Minnie Williams, in court. The evi.
dence was the same as that already
given.
Both the women were fined. Dixie
Wagner was fined $50 and put under
a peace bond for $500, which she had
not given up to noon. The charge Of
being an inmate Of Q house Of ill-iame
was added to the charge already
against Minnie Williams, and she was
fined $50, Her forfeit was only S25.
however, and she was locked up until
the residue was forthcoming.

We Have Water Once Again.

The water company sent the aqueous
fluid sizzling through the city this
morning at the rate Of ten pounds to
the square inch. To do it properly
there should be a pressure Of sixty
pounds to the square inch, but our
water works in its best season have
seldom exceeded forty and the public
can afford to be thankful to get ten
pounds underline circumstances. They
have thirsted for Just a few drops,
outside of the rainwater barrel, for SO
long, that ten pounds isa big thing,
ifmerely to wash off the thick plaster
OF mud and scurf, gathered during the
recent season ofwater famine.
1t was rumored yesterday that the
pumping apparatus would be in work
ing order during the afternoon, and
water would be started through the
pipes, sufficient to wash out filthy and
bad-smelling closets, bath and Other
ablutive purposes. An engineer thrown
out Of work by lack of water to raist
steam on his engine, visited the waite
works at their headquarters on tn,
bank of Wolf river, two miles nortl
Of the city. Alter watching the slip
shod way things were going, and tn,
rickety state of the scafolding, etc.
about the concern, he returned homr
in a gloomy frame Of mind, and CAV,
expression to doubtful views as to til,
probability of having water in any
thing like the time promised.
Last night about dark, word cam.
that an important connection pipe o
an upright character, when just abou
to be fastened to its place, for imme
date action, had toppled over an.
tumbled into Wolf river and had sun.
out of sight. The chances were tina
it would take all day to fish it out.
1t seems, however, that the needle
pipe was recovered, or a substitute SC
cured, for it is very certain we ha
