STATE POLITICS.

Mr.. Pedigo Secures a Nomin alton, Which Is
Forthwith Stolen by the Enemy.
Special to the Indianapolis journal.
BLOOMINGTON, June 5-The Democratic con-
vention to-day eclipsed anything in the way of a
political gathering ever known in Monroe county,
if not in southern Indiana After nomination
was made, it was deliberately stolen in open con-
vention and given to a candidate who belonged
to the town gang IL was the county convention,
in which there were seventy-two delegates.
When the nomination for clerk came. Simeon
Pedigo, the anti-ring candidate, received thirty
six and one-half votes and the ring candidate
thirty-fve and one-half votes No sooner was the
result announced than a ring man jumped up
and stated that, as Pedigo had not received thr-
ry-seven votes, he was not nominated. and de-
manded another ballot. The friends of Pedigo
showed that he had clear majority, but the
chair was against them, ard another ballot was
called. in which the ring procured two more
votes in some way. BY this time the convention
was mob: delegates were leaving the house and
others demanding attention, until it was neces-
sary to call upon the civil authorities to main
tain order. An effort was made to get Pedigo to
take another Office. but he refused. The feeling
is so strong that new convention is quite prob
able.

PARIS, March 5.-Peronnier. the sol
der who by firing his revolver in the
chamber Of deputies on the 25th of Feb.
ruary, TO force the state to take notice OF
him and his grievances, has already had
an imitator. While business was at its
height this afternoon in the Paris bourse,
a strange man in the gallery drew atten-
ton by making apparently aimless dem
constructions. Subsequently he took bottle
containing an explosive liquid from his
pocket and cast it down among the brok-
ers pom the floor of the exchange, crying
out as he did so: "Vive anarchie," The
bottle struck no one but remained intact
and made no episo lie. A lew spectators
whowere interrupted in their observations
by the mans conduct swore at him and
asked why the police did not remove him.
The man then drew out a revolver and
shot three times down toward the main
floor. He soon had the gallery to himself
and continued to brandish the revolver
and yell: "Vive anarchie.' Tremendous
excitement reigned for a while in the ex-
change and all business was suspended.
The disturber was soon seized and hun led
from the place, but none too soon, as the
crowd, when they recovered from their
panic, sought the man with cries to kill
him. The man was evidently of the
working class.

Last night a mob of men and boys to the

is accused OF whipping his wife and
shameiully abusing his child, and ordered
him to pack his personal effects prepare
tory to leaving town. He obeyed the
orders, and soon had two gripsaeks filed
ready to start. When he made his APP
pearance outside the mob fell to and gave
him a beating, before starting to escort
him beyond the corporate limits. They
then marched him to Main street
and turning west marched to the rail
way in the west end of town. Durin0

kicked and cuffed numerically and a big
burly butcher followed close behind him
and every few steps struck him with 0
huge cattle whip. After reaching the
west end of the town, they took him hal

SEDALIA. Mo-, March 5.-There is
nothing talked of among citizens but the
impending strike. Conflicting rumors are
abroad, but noting definite can be learned
as to when it will come. Prominent men
in labor organizations express themselves
as confident the strike will be ordered
soon, and that it may come at any mo
menL The railroad company have or.
dered all freight stopped going South,
and are evidently preparing for the strug-
gle. At the shops all is quiet, but the
men say they are ready to lay down their
tools and walk out when the order comes.
The Knights of Labor here evidently feel
that it will be a hard fight.

The situation at Springfield.

SPRINGFIELD. o., March "a com
mittee representing different Knights OF
Labor organizations in the city held a
meeting this forenoon for the purpose of
organizing an executive board; to this
board will be referred all questions bear
ing on the situation. The men under
stand from an interview with Whitley,
published yesterday, that arbitration is
out of the question, and, while nothing is
said, it is very probable hat a boycott will
be ordered. Trains are watched for in
coming workmen. but few have arrived.
There is perfect order and no indications
of violence.

GALVESTON, Texas, March IA
special to the Necs from Dallas says: The
strike on the Texas Pacific railroad Mt this
point thus far has no appreciable effect IN
business; attempts made by a citizens
committee at Marshall to effect a settle
ment by arbitration completely failed.
The three days allowed by Receivers
Brown and Sheldon for the strikers to re-
sumo work expired yesterday, and the re-
ceivers have prepared a circular which
will be issued to to-day notifying the men
who refused to return to work that they
are no longer in the employ of the ON
pany, and warning the strikers not to con-
gregate about the station and warehouses
and trying to intimfdate those who are
willing TO work. The circular says If the
men persist in such intimidation the re.
ceivers will ask help from the United
States courts.

GALVESTON, Tex, March 5.-The an
ticipated labor difficulties have undergone
no active development up ts noon. Rep
resentatiyes of the Missouri Pacific,
Southern Pacific, Texas Pacific, Texas
Central, and officials of the Gulf, Colo.
RADIO & Santa Fe were waited upon by a
committee Of Knights of Labor and no.
titled not to haul, handle or move freight
consigned to or from Mallory & Co., or
freight for any wholesale houses of Gal
weston, because the latter refused to OBJ
serve the boycott against Mallory X Co.
This notice takes effect after to-day.
For this reason it is che general belief
among a large number of workmen that
there will be a strike this morning or to-
morrow morning. Cotton presses, rail-
roads and business men generally are dis
gusted with the attitude and course our
sued by the Knights of Labor. There is
much talk of the Inauguration of a boy
colt against them similar to that started
by the East street reaper works Of Spring
field, o. A great many large business
houses here express their willingness to
close up their shops rather than to submit
to the dictation of the knights. The sit
uation in North Texas, alons the line of
the Texas Pacific railway, is not nate
rally changed.

rently reported that at a late hour last
night a cipher dispatch was received from
Marshall, Tex, directing the men in st.
Louis to prepare to turn out at a moment s

the strike to this end of the line is gener-
ally expected.

ton will be awaited with much:interest.

pay rolls for the purpose of defending
