Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
COLUMBUS o., June 5.-To-days proceed
ings under the temporary organization OF the
Republican State convention, lasted only an
hour and were quiet and Insignificant ex-
cept hat the choice of the members of the
committee on resolutions Indicated that Mr.
Shermans hand will probably be in them.
He might have had the chairmanship of the
committee if he would lave taken it, but the
agitation looking to his candidacy for the
first place on the ticket assumed such pro-
portions as to determine HIM to keep out of
the convention.
The surmises that outside events would be
exciting were not amiss. From early
morning until the convention met
and again tonight, a full force OF anti-Foster
leaders have been hard at work at schemes to
break down the candidacy OF Mr.. Foraker,
whom Governor Foster favors Senator
Sherman's conduct, in the morning. lent
Holor to the suggestion, industriously circu-
lated by the anti-Foster men, that nomina-
ton for Governor would be acceptable to
Mr.. Sherman, for he remained in his room
and received visitors with the affability of
full-hedged, sef-announced candidate. The
anti.Foster agents down stairs took care that
there was no lack Of visitors. This
movement was led by General Beatty
of this city, and Richard Snr'Gh,
of the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette
General Beatty is the recognized leader OF
the dsaffected party faction which went OIL
when Mr.. Hayes announced his Southern
policy, and Mr.. Smith IS disgruntled for va
rioIis reasons relating to the management of
pal&y affairs. General Beatty was outspoken
for Mr. Sherman, and Mr.. Smith is for any
one to beat Foraker-Sherman preferred and
Bufarworth next. Their efforts were sup
pie 9Aented by Mr.. Keifer who stayed in Mr..
ShSrman's room and doled out advice in
corner to visitors after they had been re-
ceived.
At about noon so much uneasiness had
been worked up that Mr. Sherman
found it necessary to declare that he
was not and could not be candidate, and
urged his friends to let his determination be
announced. This quieted but did not stop
the agitation, and when the time came for
the convention to meet he thought that his
absence would operate better than his pres
ence, and he remained away. The renewal
of the agitation led him to take more effective
measures to spare the convention a possible
stampede by consenting to preside at to-
morrow's proceedings, when he will be in
position, he thinks, to put his foot down on
any attempt to bring his name as a candidate
before the convention.

LITTA, THE PRIMA DONNA.
She Arrives at Her Home Seriously HI and
Delirous.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.


BLooMINGToN, ILL.,, June Sat P. NJ.
Mile. Marie Litta, the celebrated opera
singer whose home is here, arrived from
Negaunee, Mich, in very critical condi-
ton, and fears that she may not recover are
freely expressed. Litta was taken sick at
Negaunee while on a concert tour, May 10,
and has since been in the care OF her sister.
1t was found by the physicians that if she
remained in Michigan she must die, so the
journey was undertaken, the songstress being
accompanied by her sister and Sgnor Ba-
lama, the tenor, and one or two others of
her company. She was taken from the
train upon a stretcher, and with the greatest
difficulty conveyed home in an express
wagon. Tonight she is delirious and suffer-
ing intensely. Her disease is of rheumatic
character, affecting the stomach.

The Diplomatic Relations Between the

The Diplomatic Relations Between the
French and Chinese.
PARIS, June 6.-Marquis Tseng, Chinese
representative at Paris, London and ST.
Petersburg, and who represented China at
the coronation OF the Gar, has been inter
viewed at Moscow. He said the diplomatic
relations between France and China would
certainly cease if the former operated in Ton
quin without having previously arranged
with China. He said he doubted whether
the mission to Pekin of Tricon, the new
French representative, would succeed, as he
would offer even less reasonable terms
than contained in the inadequate treaty Of
fered by Bourse, the retiring representative.
It Wis possible, ne said, that China would
not act directly, but the situation
might become dangerous owing
to the existence of Chinese
war party. China had decided to recognize
the treaty of 1862 in regard to Cochin China,
and even that of 1874, provided that France
intervened in Tonquin affairs solely at the
request of China's yassal King of AMMAN,
and that the Intervention would not be re-
garded by France as rendering void China's
of AMMAN. Even if China re-
mained neutral, France would probably
have to make, in order to insure her sue
cess in Tonquin, sacrifices ten times greater
than she seemed to anticipate

Investigating a Lunatic's Death.

CINCINNATI, O., June 5.-George H. Bacon,
a former resident of st. LOUIS, who has been
an inmate of the Longview lunatic asylum
for the past two months, was found dead in
bed yesterday morning. A post-mortem ex-
animation to-day showed contusions about
the head, cut on the lip and portion of
the nose torn away. The fact that he was
confined in room with another lunatic
caused the widow of Bacon to demand an
official investigation. The coroner will hold
an inquest tomorrow, when full report Of
the postmortem will be submitted.

the case OF a hotel-keeper named Jury, of
Dublin, who died a fortnight after the
Phoenix Park murders. From disclosures bv
the informers, the authorities do not doubt
that Jury was poisoned. The reason alleged
for the poisoning is that he inadvertently
opened letter addressed to lyman, who
was staying at Jury's hotel. Jury discov-
cred that the letter contained directions in
regard to a secret society. Fearing the ven-
geance of the members of the society, Jury
destroyed the letter. A waiter, however, in
