nounced however, Wisconsin changed
her vote so as to increase the vote for
Hancock. State after state then chang
ed till at the end of the call Hancock
had 7O3 votes; Bayard, 2, from Mary
land; Hendricks, 80, from Indiana, and
Tilden 1, from Iowa. VIM. HI. English,
of Indiana was then nominated for Vice
President. General Hancock is well
known as union officer of long service
and much merit. Mr.. English is not
generally known as he has been in
public life but little since 1858, at which
time his term expired as member of
Congress. He is lawyer by education
but has for some years been engaged in
banking and railroad speculations. Both
parties have now placed before the
country men of ability and unexception-
able character, and the voter need only
be guided by his political preference.

Major Swain related the following in

when nearing the next station :" A

Garfield received letter from the gen.

that exactly at the hour Garfield was ac-
corded the nomination in Chicago, and
while the enthusiasm was at its height,
large American eagle flew from some
source and nestled upon the Washing

PENSIONS.

WASHINGTON, June 22.-Claims for
pensions pending before the department
have increased in the last fourteen
months at the rate of at least five thou
sand month. These unsettled claims
are now more than double the number
at the date of the passage of the Arrears
of Pension act in January, 1879. There
are now pending in the office at least
100000 claims. During the six months
preceding the passage of the arrears act,
that is, from July 1, 1873, to January /,
1879, the number of claims filed per
month did not exceed 1850 invalids'
and widows claims together. During
the seventeen months since the passage
of the act this average has been at least
$500 per month. 1t is impossible with
the present facilities of the Pension Bu-
reau to dispose of more than $500 of
these cases per month, so that these
claims are ow.accumulating at the rate
of five or six thousand, and it would
take, Commissioner Bentley says, many
years to dispose Of the claims now
pending.

rightdo enter upon the premises forever,
and take therefrona sufficient ore for the
eupply Of one furnace. That was almost
one hundred years ago, when iron ore
was smelted in somewhat crude FASH
ION, and the average yield of q furnace
was one thousand Ave hundred tons a
year. That was about the amount
taken by Mr.. Grub annually during his
lifetime. But the process has been
vastly improved since then, and now a
furnace turns out as much in a single
month The question arose, of course,
whether the heirs Of Grub were entitled
to as much ore as would supply an
eighteenth or nineteenth century fur
mace. A lawsuit has been in the courts
for twenty-four years, employing some
of the ablest lawyers In the State. The
Supreme Court has just decided, on
appeal, that ore can be taken in suffl-
cient quantity to supply furnace.

Changing Gauge.

The narrowing of the gauge of the
western division of the New York, Lake

was completed at 9:25 Tuesday morning.
The Erie road has now the standard
gauge from New York to Niagara Falls,
Buffalo, Salamanca and Dunkirk. The
distance between the two points is 225
miles, and the whole work was accom-
plished in the almost incredibly short
period of six and a-half hours.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.



WASHINGTON, d. O., June %, 1880.
But little interest has so far been manifested
Ia this City In the Cincinnati Convention pro-
ceedlngs. The Government ofilclals-those
who have attained position during twenty years
of Republican rule-were Of course specially
anxious as to the result at Chicago, and ex-
pended their time and enthusiasm during the
Convention held there early in the month.

tion is made. The prevalent rumor here that
Senator M'Donald would go on the ticket was
received here yesterday. Next to hlm-sey-
mour aud rilden out of the way-Hancock
would be most agreeable to the City Democ-
racy.
This city will celebrate the 4th Of July In an
almost unprecedented manner. Everybody
will participate.
We have three men here, who have been
convicted of murder, but who are generally
believed, by reason of evidence discovered
since their trial, TO be innocent. They will be
hung at an carly day unless the usual legal
course shall be departed from, or the President
shall interfere.
An old quarrel will be revived shortly. The
post Office Department will issue advertise
ments inviting proposals for furnishing the
service with new locks for the mail bags, etc.
/ cannot recall any instance in which bids for
furnishing locks to any Department have not
resulted in prolonged contest between the
manufacturers.
gentleman in this city has just received
letter from party of friends in New York who
had just completed trip around the world in
seventy five days, said to be the quickest time
ever made.
Nearly all the State organizations which
disappeared from political life here on the
incoming of the present administration, will be
revived as soon as the campaign fairly opens.
1t Is thought no opposition will be made by
those in authority. The Clubs are composed
mostly of government employees, but the polt-
ical work is done generally, after office hours.
Ifthe authorities here, as 10 now stated,
cannot inquire into the efficiency of those Fed
eral officers whose duty 1t was to provide as
far as possible against such "accidents" as
that TO the Narragansett, 1t seems that
change In the laws Is an immediate necessity.
Under the decision just made here, the New
England officials who appear to have neglected
their duty cannot be reached in any way
indeed, there is no way by which their nominal
superors in this city can find out whether or
not there was any neglect of duty.
1t is said by Democrats this afternoon that
If any one but Seymour is nominated at Gin
cinnati, Senator Cameron will not only consent
to retain his place as Chairman of the Nation
al Committee, but that he with Senators Conk-
ling and Logan will make themselves con-
splcuous in managing the campaign.

TRENTON, June 22.-Benjamin Fish,
aged ninety years, died here this morning
while eating his breakfast. He was known
as the most active man for his age in the
State. He was the oldest railroad man in
New Jersey, having been one of the origi-
nal projectors of the Camden and Amboy
Railroad in 1882. He was for many years
director of the Trenton Banking Compa-
ny, and at the time of his death was one
of the directors of the New Jersey United
Railroad Company, corporation which
had in charge the interests of the stock
holders of the several railroads included
in the lease to the Pennsylvania Railroad.

In the bathtub Dr. McCrea was found well

destruction was committed with razor,
which was found by his side.
No cause beyond the temporary insanity
can be assigned for the act. The easy and
comfortable circumstances of DIR. McCrea,
forbid the idea that any money matters had
anything to do with it. For year past,
Dr. McCrea has been suffering from severe
attacks of dyspepsia, and consequently
has become considerably depressed in spir-
