CINCINSATI, Nav l0.-ln the course

much they are sure OF, and IL they can
carry New York aud Indiana, they will
have 1888 votes, three votes TO spare.
Besides these, there is chance OF their
carrying New Jersey or Connecticut,
and perhaps Oregon or Nevada. You
see, there has been such an emigration

Sherman Expects to Over

WASHINGTON, May l0.-Ever since
the visit of McManes, the Philadelphia
"boss," to this city, when he refused ~
call upon Mr.. Blaine, there has been
disquietude among the friends OF the
Maine statesman. Then, too, Mchanes
publicly declared he was for Sherman,
and that statement has raised the ques-
ton whether Blaine will get all the
delegates he has been counting on from
Pennsylvania when the bolt his friends
have been helping on takes place.
Ii is known here that there are very
respectable number OF delegates both in
the New York and Pennsylvania dele
cations who will vote for Mr.. Sherman
Il the proper occasion is offered them.
The strength OF the Secretary did not
appear in either Of these states, since he
all no. desire TO make a fight against
either Cameron or Conkling in their
own State, aud for this reason u is
thought he will be much stronger than
Blaine with the Grant men OF these

DYING FOR HIS SISTERS.
A COwARDlY ASSASSINATION IN The
STREETS OF PARKERSBURG.
The Victim Scott TraceweIl, Of Newport !
the Murderer Elmer Bartlette, Of Park
ssbug-The Assassin's Flight
Other Crimes in thai Region
THE CAUSE or THE TRAGEDY.

The attempted assassination in the
neighboring town Of Parkersburg last
night has shrouded two estimable iami-
lies in gloom, and terribly shocked the
communities in which they are known
and respected. The details which We
print below do not give mitigating cir
cumstance to evoke sympathy for the
slayer. The shooting was deliberate,
determined and cold-blooded. The re-
suit is that Scott Tracewell is dying, II
he he not dead, and Elmer Bartlett is a
fugitive from justice, il he has not been
captured since these lines were written,
There was, so far as the facts appear
now, no proyocation for the terrible
crime. Bartlett, with all a towards
cunning stole upon his victim from be-
hind and shot him through the body.
For bloody minded yindictiveness the
murder has few parallels in the criminal
history OF the State.

An Alleged Shooter In soak

PAREERsBURG, May 10.
Some time since young man named
David Cross got into a difficulty with
another man at or near kanawha sta

Cross is alleged 10 have shot and quite
severely wounded his antagonist. He

The clothing OF a man whose name Is

day or two since. The clothes are sup
posed to have belonged TO some uniur-

nothing about the clothes TO identity

The body OF the man supposed 10 have
been drowned near Butchers, on the

A BOUNTIFUL HARVEST
Promised by the Splendid Ap-
pearance Of the Crops In Ohio
and Pennsylvania-The Guile
less Granger Consumed with
,JOy.

Special 10 the Register
PITTSBURGH, May 10.
The Commercial. Ga;ette Of this morn
ing, publishes very full reports OF the
present prospects Of the crops in Fay.
ette, Brownsville, Jefferson. Venango,
Indiana, Butler, Lawrence, Beaver,
Washington, Westmoreland and Craw.
ford counties, Pennsylvania. and in
Stark, Harrison, Munroe, and Jefferson
counties, Ohio. Almost in every In.
stance the reports say that the crops
have better appearance than those OF
last year. The report from Westmore-
land is sample. II says: "The pres
ent prospect for an abundant yield OF all
kinds OF fruits and cereals in this county
was never better. The acreage OF wheat
is larger and the promise OF heavy crop
is brighter than We have had for many
years. The past winter and spring
have been particularly favorable for
this kind OF grain, there having
been hut very little alternate freez-
ing and thawing OF the surface. Fields
which have been heretofore at this sea
son of the year brown and bare are now
covered with q yerdant growth. The
abundance of the yield will depend
largely upon the timely showers OF the
next two months. But taking one year
with another We may count upon such
n production Of this important cereal as
has never been heretofore experienced
in this county. No estimate can be fur
nished as 10 the spring grains, such as
corn, oats, barley, etc, as these have
only been recently put in the ground,
and have made but little progress, but,
from the general appearance OF the
country, We would say that the average
in these grains will also be large. The
apples and smaller fruits have not been
materially injured by the recent cold
snap and We believe there will be
superabundance of fruits OF all kinds"
The whole situation is thus summed
up by the Commercial Ga.dte: Thecrop
of cereals, so far as the present growth
presages, indicates al abundant harvest
OF wheat, corn, oats and rye. lD some
instances an unprecedented crop is an
ticipated. Hay promises well in every
respect. In the line OF fruits, the out
look in apples and peaches is especially
good, the frost not having seriously
damaged them in any quarter. Cher.
ries, pears and plums give a good show
ing, and the smaller fruits look well.
The general outlook may be summed up
~ giving rich promise OF year OF plenty
and to spare"

President Of the Petroleum Exchange,
has the following telegram from Brad
ford, Pa:
BRADFORD, Pa, May 10.
Nearly all OF Rixiord and both pipe
ltne stations are burned. Three United
and two 1idewater iron tanks are now
burning.
A later dispatch says one pump sta
tain, two 25,00O barrel tanks and one
5000 barrel tank, all United, are burn
ing. Two Tidewater tanks are almost
sure 20 burn. Nothing else in danger.
Ii is estimated that forty wells and
eighty buildings have been burned.
Additional Particulars
BRADFoRD, Pa, May l0.-The 125, 900
barrel iron tank OF McLead < Morris,
and the %, 600 barrel iron tank of the
United Pipe Lines at Rexford, were still
burning ut II O'Clock this morning. One
tank boiled over and set the second
25,0O0 barrel iron tank OF the United
Line on fire. There are two other tanks
OF similar dimensions belonging 10 the
Tidewater Pipe Line Company, a short
distance further down the valley which
cannot escape destruction. The heat is
so intense that the workmen are pre-
vented from digging trenches or build
ing dams. There is no property in the
immediate vicinity OF the burning tanks
and unless the high winds become pre-
valent the flames can be confined to the
tanks. The loss on oil is borne by the
general average assessment on all por-
tons OF the Pipe Lines. No further
property was destroyed in RixfOrd be-
sides the eighty buildings reported.
Fires Raging Noar Other OIL Towns.
BRADFORD, Pa, May l0--The loss in
RlXlord is estimated at $4,000, with
light Insurance. Several dangarousiires
are now raging in the woods near Bar
mum City and Colcvlllc. Oil property
is thickly located through the forests in
those sections, both OF which are
twelve miles from Bradford. As yet
little property has been destroyed at eth
erplace. Four hundred men are fighting
the flames near Coleville, and large
number are near Barnum. A brisk
breeze is blowing, and the woods in
every direction are as dry as tinder,
making the danger very great. Rain is
