Major Mckinley is not committed, but Is
considered for Sherman. Rev. james
Poindexter (colored) Of Columbus was
added TO the candidates. Major Mckinley
insisted he should not be considered
elected. He had promised his friends that
he would not be q candidate IS long as GER
tain gentlemen were in the field, naming
Messrs. Amber and Hanna, and he could
not accept. Voices: ''You cannot with
draw" sNo." .'No."I He persisted in
declaring he was not to be considered
elected. On the question whether two or
three delegates be elected, he decided
three. The decision was appealed
from and not sustained, but he
announced that three delegates were
yet to be elected and q ballot was taken.
Hon. s. s. Warner Of Wellington was
added to the candidates. A ballot was
taken. Before the announcement was

by acclamation was tabled. A ballot was
ordered. Before the ballot was announced

Sherman victory. The motion to suspend
the rules and elect Beatty, another Sher-
man man, by acclamation, was lost.

ST.. LOUIS, April 24.-Dispatches from
Pierce City late tonight give a further ac-
count Of the arrest of Tilden G.. Abbott
for the robbery Of the Watertown, Mass,
bank last Fall. 1t appears that Abbott
was the Cashier OF the bank, and abb
seconded, taking with him all the money
he could lay his hands on. He came to
Pierce City about two months ago with q
man named Clayton, whom he represent
ed as his nephew. They claim to have
come from California. They opened a
clothing store with goods said to be bought
in Cincinnati, and put on a good deal Of
style. One of the merchants of the city
became suspicious Of them, and in some
unexplained way suspected they had been
connected with banks in different parts of
the country, and discovered Abbott's con-
nection with the Watertown bank, and his
robbery Of it. He then notified the bank
of Abbott's presence in Pierce City. His
arrest was ordered, and he was captured
On Monday night by a local officer at his
home, where he was living in fine style.
There is nc woman in the case. Clayton,
who proves to be no relation of Abbott's,
will be held till the officers from Water
town come for him.
Scandal I'm High Life.
WASHINGTON. April 24.-The troubles in
q family occupying q high social station,
and which have been on the tongue Of
gossips for some time, to-day took tangible
form, in the shape Of q suit for divorce,
brought by Helen Marshall Carroll against
Samuel O. Carroll, Major General on the
retired list Of the United States Army.
The charge is adultery with o notorious
woman in this city. The petitioner states
that they were married at st. Louis Sept.
8, 1856, by Rev. DR.. Schuyler, her maiden
name being Helen Bennett. That after
the discovery OF these offences, for the
sake Of her children, and in the hope that
he would abandon his vicious habits, she
remained with him; but his conduct had
been daily growing worse, and therefore
she seeks the protection of the law. The
parties to the suit are well known in mill
tary circles throughout the country, Gen.
Carroll having reached q high rank during
the war. and Mrs. Carroll being closely
related to some OF the most distinguished
officers In the service.
