SOudan is in the possession of the Porte and en-
trusted to our charge. The Queens Government
states that Egypt should follow its counsels with

makes no reference to the Cardnalate and not sup

however, that the dignity will then be bestowed upon

In which he is held by the Pope during the

PAYNE N0MINA TED FOR SENATOR.
THE RESULT ATTAINED ON THE FIRST BALLor-A
PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE.

PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE
IBr TELEGRAPH TO TRIBUSE.l
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. S.-Henry B. Paynes
nomination by the Democratic Senatorial caucus
took place on the first ballot as had been long pre-
dicted. The efforts of the opposition to-day were
directed to the Hamilton County delegation. Every
means was employed to break the solid phalanx
which it presented for Payne. Letters and tele-
grams from hundreds Of Cincinnati business men
poured in upon the members to-day.
Toward evening it became apparent that the
effort was fruitless Pendleton and Ward both be-
came convinced of their probable defeat. AS q
last resort Representative Hull, of Allen County,
Pendeton man, openly proclaimed
that Oliver H. Payne had attempted
to bribc him, and promised to produce the proofs IN
writing in the caucus This was comteracted by
the promised production of an affidavit from Repre-
sentative Myers of Franklin, that Col. ben" Rob-
inson had offered him 81 900 to vote for Pendleton
Both sides then cooled off, and reports from the eau
Gus show that neither side dared open the subject
During the evening Pendleton and Ward held a
conference and agreed that. if invited to address
the caucus they would refuse The Payne men
heard of this, and the caucus did not honor them
with an invitation.
In the caucus there were several
test votes, the first being on mo-
ton to cut off all debate speeches. 1t re-
sulted-i6 to 34-in the affirmative, the Payne men
voting yea. On question of secret or open ballot,
the Payne men were again victorious by AZ to 80.
Payne men were officers of the caucus, and Payne
committee reported the rules. John r. Mclean had
a secret position in a rear hallway where he could
consult with members at any time.
The result of the caucus has been
to place the young Democrats of the
state in complete control Of the machine and of
any patronage that the future may cast INTO the lap
Of their party. - .
Mr. Payne will be pushed forward for the Presi-
dencv Backed by wealth and a powerful working
organization of young men, he will be a formidable
candidate for the Democratic nomination.. The
pledge will be made to the Democratic National
Convention to carry Ohio if he is nominated. Pen
deton and Ward each refused an interview after
the caucus. There is much bad blood in the
hotel loLbes
