afternoon Session.

The afternoon session was called to order
at 2:15. The committee on credentials re-
ported all the counties of the district repre-
sented except Cook and one delegate from
Cass, leaving the convention with one hun
dred and thirty-fve votes.
Senator Stennison moved that the tempo
rary organization be continued as the perma-
nent organization, adopted.
j. C. Flynn, of Mile Laos, stated to the
convention that body of Republicans had
prepared a petition which they desired to
present to the convention with view to
heal the fractional differences in the district
in an equitable, manly way, which he hoped
the convention would consent to hear.
j. W. Mason, of Otter Tail, said before the
convention could entertain the matter it
must be informed what it was and who was
knocking at the door.
Mr.. Buchanan, of Benton, without bring
ing in who had been right or wrong in the
past, said it was the point of prudence and
and moderation to hear the petition that the
Kindred faction asked to present. He un-
derstood that a body of Republicans asked
that they be admitted to representation on
the district committee and one delegate to
the Chicago convention, and they were not
asking too much; not more than the con-
venton should be willing to concede, and
that done nothing would exist to mar the
harmony of the ''grand old party" in the
great and growing Fifth district.
Mr.. Corliss, Of Ottex Tail, attacked the
request in an unplacable spirit. These men,
the kindred faction" by the call for this
convention had been invited here but they
stayed off. Why were they not here? Why
were they holding another convention in
another hall and keeping up their rebellion
He concluded by moving the indefinite post
| ponement of the whole subject.

The Wrong Name.

The GLOBE contained an item yesterday
stating that A. c. Sheldon had been arrested
while prowling about house in lower town.
The mans real name is Thomas Howard.
He was employed by Mr.. Sheldon to come
through with some stock and had shipping
bills made out in Mr.. Sheldon's name, on
his person. He got on a spree hereand gave
the name of Sheldon which his papers seemed
tosverify. Mr.. Sheldon is very worthy
citizen and not that kind of a man.

Mr.. DoNNELLY had a big fight for renom-
ination as school inspector of the Second
Ward but he scored handsome endorse
ment in the end. He is not without imper-
fections, but no man in the school board la
bors more faithfully for the cause
of public education than he. The
GLOBE has not always approved
Mr.. Donnelly's political methods
but it gives him credit for being an earnest
friend Of the public schools, and standing
up against strong influences which at times
might have proved damaging but for such
faithful services as he and his associates
have rendered.

A COMPROMISE TALKED OF.

A movement is on foot among the Demo-
Gratis in the house, looking to compromise
upon a tariff bill essentially different from
the Morrison bill and which may receive the
support of the united party. 1t will not take
the horizontal reduction as basis at all, but
will make such Determinations as are needed
and will practically be a revision Of the ex-
listing tariff schedules. The matter has been
carefully canvassed by few of the Pennsyl-
vania Democrats, and it is said originated
with Mr.. Mutchler, Mr.. Elliott and Mr.. Cur
tin. The Morrison men are almost unani-
nous in favor of the plan, and
to-day Morrison himself was
approached in reference to it. The result was
was not at al satisfactory and it was assumed
there may be some difficulty in inducing con-
sideration of the matter ON his part Mr.
Randall will be speaker to morrow, and 1t is
thought he will agree to the plan. The to-
bacco part of the internal taxation is one of
the proposed reductions, liquors to remain as
at present. This part of the matter is sub
stantially as agreed upon in the caucus. That
some compromise will be necessary in order to
pass g a tariff bill - is evident, but that any
compromise will be accepted by the Morrison
wing until they are actually defeated is not
certain.
OPINIONS DIFFER ON THE MISSOURI.
At the meeting OF the river and harbor
committee last Saturday the Missouri delega-
ton, in presenting their claim for liberal
appropriation, found that wide difference
of opinion prevailed as to what was required
and where it was most needed. Some were
iii favor of commission, some were against
and some didn't know, instead of receiving
what was needed, and it looked as if they
had actually damaged their cease. A member
of the committee suggested that it would be
better to come to some definite understanding
before they went any further. Acting on this
Messrs. Burnes and Graves held consulta-
ton, the result of which was letter to Chair
man Willis, setting forth the needs of the
Missouri. This letter. which keeps within
the bounds of the recommendations of the
army engineers, was submitted to the rest OF

THE PETITION REJECTED.

Upon the reassembling of the convention
Col. Graves submitted the following report
We the committee appointed to act upon the
proposition submitted by Mr.. Flynn, of
MORRISON Co., report that we have examined
the call under which this convention was
called, and fine the same fair and just to all
Republicans of this district, recognize
ing as it did the votes cast in the respective
counties for both Nelson and Kindred; that
there was no occasion for the calling OF any
other convention to enable the Republican
voters of this district to cast their full share
in deciding party affairs, and your committee
further report that they have met the
committee of gentlemen who have appeared
before the convention to-day and these gen
tlemen stated that they were willing to ae-
cept as a compromise of all previous dis
sension in the party the election in this con-
vention of one man as delegate to Chicago
who should be named by them, and if that
was granted would abandon all
outside organization and act under the au-

committee for the future. Your committee

A HUSBAND TOO MANY.

One morning seven years ago Jacques
Torcy, the clever speculator, the man Of
fashion, was found dead in his bed al
his country seat-his brains scattered
over his pillow. At first it was believed
that he had been assassinated. The
house was deserted, being uninhabited
at the time. NJ. Torcy had gone there
to look for some eaccount-books which he
needed. His only attendant at the time
was gardener, who lived in an isolated
building,
But on the examination Of the books
and Golfers of the unfortunate man, who
had . banking house in the Rue Lahtte,
it was evident he had committed suicide.
He was completely ruined; even the
dowry of his wife had been swallowed
up. He had not wished to survive the
disaster.
No one was surprised two years later
when the young widow married again.
Nj. de Beaulieu is as handsome as was
her hrst husband. He has au ample
fortune safely invested, The second
marriage, like the first, WAS happy. Soon
a boy was born, and then a girl.
One day Nine. de Beaulieu received a
letter which had been on its travels some
time, and which was addressed 10 Nine.
