ceny in Baton Rouge, still in Jail. The last
named prisoner is charged with having
stolen 600 cigars from the factory of Gerard
L'Omcial, in the city of Baton Rouge. A
dispatch was received here that Picou was
coming down the river on the Corona and
when the steamer reached our wharf the
fugitive was captured by officers Thomp-
son and Gabrielle. He claimed that he
had been sent out by his employer to sell
cigars and that getting lost in the country
he had taken the boat to come to Donald
sonville. Inquiry of the clerk, however,
developed the fact that the accused had
registered for New Orleans. He will be
held subject to further orders from Baton

DEMOCRATIC D1sTR1oT CoNvEsT1oss.-The
judicial and senatorial district conventions
OF the Democratic party met at Hook and
Ladder Hall in this town on Sunday, the
9th inst, and organized by choosing Mr.
}. l.. Gaudet temporary chairman and Mr.
q. Kline, temporary secretary. A protest
being made by one of the delegates of the
Roman Billion Acknowledgement sus-
tanned by Mr.. Pugh of Ascension-that it
was not fair that Mr.. Gaudet should be
Chairman when his seat was contested, the
chairman Reused himself and Mr.. r. N.
Sims of Ascension took the chair and ap-
pointed as committee on credentials
Messrs. Sims, Minor {Sims proxy and
Pugh. The st. James contestants declined
to submit their claimes to this committee,
claiming that it was unfairly constituted
and therefore report was presented that
the delegates entitled to seats were Messrs
R. N. Sims, II. D. Minor, Z. N. Pugh, and
G. Kline of Ascension, ]. L. Gaudet, j. E.
Poch6, j. A. Bourgeois, L. j. Bourgeois, r.
Beauvais and Edward Scannell of st. James.
The judicial and senatorial delegates from
the latter parish, composed of six gentle
men, agreed that the four of their number
first named should represent the parish in
both conventions. Judge Sims and Mr..
Kline were then made permanent president
and secretary and the convention proceeded
to nominate Hon. Henry L. Duffel of AS
cension for District Judge and Mr.. j. L.
Gaudet of st. James for District Attorney,
there being no opposition. It was decided
to take no action on the senatorial ques-
ton, and after authorizing the presiden+
to appoint the district committee the con-
vention adjourned.
The contestants from st. James exhibited
much feeling over the treatment they re-
ceived and sharp passage of words be-
tween Messrs. Roman and Sims occurred
that threatened to lead to more serious re-
suits. An attempt was made to secure an
adjustment of the st. James contest, but
it failed, neither delegation being willing
to accept the proposition advanced by the
other.
The Roman Billion delegates were known
to favor the nomination of Democratic
candidate for Senator, and the refusal Of
the convention to make nomination is
regarded rs an Endorsement of Mr.. Richard
S;mmes, the Republican nominee. Mr..
A. i. Roman of st James has since been
named as q candidate for Senator by con-
ventlon OF the Roman Billion faction.

The Steamer Gov. McLane Paid For.

At a meeting of the Board of Pub
lie Works yesterday afternoon, the
steamer Gov. McLane, built for the
State Fishery Force by Neafe &
Levy, contractors, Philadelphia, was
formally accepted by the board, and
an order passed to pay Mr..
Levy, representative of the
firm, the sum of $31, ,165 b.
This amount includes extra work
done on the new steamer not in the
contract. Another steamer is to be
built by the same firm and both are
to cost $50, 1896. Chief Engineer Far
mer, of the Naval Academy, who was
asked to make an investigation, re-
ported that the injury received by the
steamer in coming to Annapolis last
Thursday from Baltimore, was not
caused by emery sand, as reported,
but from want of proper oiling and
fast running. Gov. McLane thought
the injury to the steamer should have
been reported to the board last meet
ing. The firm has promised to re-
pair the injury, which is only slight.
