4 coroner's Jury was summoned which on
repairing to the scene, found a wagon, one
horse and full set of double harness, ex-
cepting one bride Lying beside the wagon
was the body of girl about sixteen years
old with the head completely severed from
the body. The stream was searched and
the bodies of the two children found, one a
girl about eleven and boy about six years

an AK and the boyssslA Adht cut from ear to

bodies placed in them and inqueSts held.
Meanwhile terrible stencil was noticed to
issue from neighboring thicket lnyesti-
cation revealed eliminating horror in the
mutilated body of a woman apparently the
mother of the murdered children. The side
of her head had been beaten in with some
murderous weapon and her throat cut from
ear to ear. The body was hidden under
the bushes and covered with logs All the
bodies were too much dccompoSed for re

any political meaning whatever. 9th
erwise the contest that ensued would
have been averted in the selection of some
other member Those responsible for
bringing Claytori forward had calculated on
the Convention oyerruhng the action Of the
committee, though all precedents were for
approving such nomination.
The Independents Decided
to make an issue on this selection and
formed a combination with the Arthur men
for that purpose. The votes were cast
largely on this issue, but not all of them, as
some Arthur men voted for Clay
ton in order TO sustain the committee
and some Blaine men voted for Lynch as he
is claimed to be for Blaine However, the
EdmundS men are very jubilant and
claim that the field against Blaine is
strong enough to dictate the nominee. On
the other hand the Blaine men say there
are Arthur men who will 90 to Blaine if
they see no chance for their favorite and
that the vote has shown them TO be stronger
than it has been conceded.
Notes.
Mr.. Morrow, of California, seems to be
rising man.
The Independents have evidently packed
the Convention. Witness the reception OF
General William Curtis.
Bickharn, of Ohio, said he knows General
Sherman will be the nominee A delegate
remarked that God must have told him as
no one else knew it.
A resolution to allow the Irish Thed
League to present memorial on the ques
ton of allowing foreigners to hold land in
this country was early presented and re
