Sends to St. Louis.
CONCORD, N. II. May 1.-The democratic
state convention met to-day, and, in point
of attendance, was the largest ever held
in this state. Many delegates were I'M
able to obtain seats.
Mr.. G. Mitchell, of Concord, was elected
president. Mr.. Mitchell's address was
frequently app!auded. His illusions to
the president called out manifestations of
hearty applause.
The resolutions as adopted heartily
endorse the administration of President
Cleveland and recommend him for re-
nomination. They approve of the presi-
dents message to congress on the sub
ject of tariff reform and reduction of war
taxes.
The convention then proceeded to
ballot for delegates to the national con-
vention.
Col. G. f. Noyes declining to have his
name used rs a candidate, the result of
the ballot was: Whole number of votes
SIC, of which Daniel Conner, of Man
chester, received 563; Joseph G. Moore, of
Clifford, Sc; Alvan W. Sully, of franklin,
70, and Frank Jones, of Portsmouth, 81,

| country by the wisdom and courage ex-
bioitsu in his annual message when Q
recommended tax reform and reduction
of the surplus. Congress should long ago
have reduced taxation, but the journals of
the house would show that repeated
efforts of the democratic party in that di-
rection had been thwarted by gentlemen
of the other side. He then turned his
attention to that portion of Mr.. Kelly's
tariff speech in which he draws AN I'M
favorable condition of affairs in Ken
lucky, and he declared that the statements
made by the gentleman we're marvellous
and gross Misrepresentation.
Mr.. Foran, of Ohio, opposed the bill.
He discussed at some length and earnestly
opposed the proposition to place wool on
the free list. Touching upon the question
of wages, he declared that if this
bill passed American workingman would
be compelled to compete with English
worklngmen and receive the same rate
per day for his work. He protested now,
and would protest under any and all cir
Gu instances, a ainst the false assumption
and suicidal declaration that the so-called
Mills bill involves democratic princip Plies
and democratic duty. Iii was the in
tention of the bill to reduce the surplus
it Would prove an abortive failure. As it
now stood he not only denounced it but
repUdated it.
Mr.. O'Ferrell, of Virginia, supported
the bill.
Mr.. Dorsey, of Nebraska, followed in
opposition to the bill. He said that in
dustrY, and not population, created
wealth. He adjured the citizens of the
west either to stop trying to build their
cities or to defeat such attempts as were
made in the pending bill to break down
industries. The president might deceive
the people until the next election, but the
people would then correct and undo the
wrong.
The committee then rose and the house
adjourned.

THE EMPERoK's MEALS.

BERLIN, April 3O.-The emperor takes
breakfast at $3.50 a. m, dinner at l p. M,
and supper at p. IN. His digestion is
unim paired. He is allowed to eat any.
thing he likes, except fish. He has lost
flesh during the last fortnight, but his face
does not show it. The bed reading appa-
ratus, ordered by the empress from Lon
don, greatly pleases the emperor, who
now has an aversion to tablet writing.
The first sam Piles of gold coin bearing the
emperors etfigy have just been issued at
the mint. The emperor has presented
one of the coins to DR.. Mackenzie.
MACKENZIE EMPHATIC.

almost entirely subsidized, and his condl-
ton is unchanged.

BANK DEFALCATION.
How an Assistant Cashier Made Grab
and Disappeared.


New YORK, May 1.-Oficers of the Ma
tional Park bank are very reticent in
reference to the defalcation of Assistant
Cashier Charles /. Debaum, who disap-
peared. A meeting of the directors was
held to-day. Before it went into session
Cashier Wright promised to give the re-
perters a statement, but when it ad
iourned he declined to do 30. All he
would say was that the amount of the de-
falcation is $4,000; that Debaum entered
the bank in minor position twenty-five
years ago, and gradually worked up to the
position of assistant cashier.
"He would probably have been cashier
in short time," added Mr.. Wright, "had
he gone straight" Debaum resigned his
position April 10, assigning i'll health as
the cause. His resignation was volun-
tary. He was under personal bonds, which
are said to be satisfactory to the bank.
By resolution the defalcation was
charged to the profit and loss
account. The defalcation will not
embarrass the bank. How it was ac-
complished has not been made known by
the officers.
Debaum had charge of the out of town
correspondence with other banks. In this
way he received checks, which he appro-
priated, it is said, covering his stesls by
! false entries. The defalcation was not
discovered until Debaum's books were ex-
amined after he had resigned and dis
appeared.

make no difference in the condition of
affairs in Ireland, while alliance with the
pope will displease England"
The st. James Gazette asks what Mr..
Gladstone thinks of his position now?
What the vatican declares to be damn
ing sin, Mr.. Gladstone, it says, considers
exclusive dealing.
The Globe says:
archbishop Walsh doubtless did his
utmost to refute Monseignor Perisco's
statement relative to the condition of
affairs in Ireland"
1t is possible, the Daily News in
Inmates, that the pope has been threat
ened with something like schism. The
decree means that law and order, which
we're menaced by the junction of the
strong British party with the Parnellites,
have now, in the vatican's opinion, over
come the disturbing forces assailing
them.
The Star denounces the decree as peril
GUS and wanton. 1t says: "Ireland is
fighting with her back to the wall and will
never, perhaps, discover the methods by
which the attack was investigated. If
Ireland submits to sacrifice her liberties to
base tory intrigue, she will be unworthy
of the freedom which, in few years,
Englishmen will grant her if she maintains
her demands. 1he pope calls upon Eng
lishmen to denounce their minister's in
trigue. Ireland, it declares, will accept
political advice and counsel from no one
bit her chosen political leaders,"
The Standard argues that the effect of
the decree will be disastrous to the
National League by lesseuing its contri-
buttons. The just parliamentary party
will take no steps in connection with the
decree, but will leave the question on its
merits to the appreciation of the people.
The prompter5 and supporters of the
plan of campaign do not expect the decree
will act es a serious check to the enter
prise.
oBEYING THE POPE DECREE.
LONDON, May 1.-The Rome correspond

VIEWS ON THE TREATY.

OTTAWA, May LIN the senate yester-
day, the fisheries treaty was again up for
discussion. Senator Poirier said:
eff the United States do not adopt the
treaty it will be all the worse
for them. We shall have done
our share in making liberal
advances and concession," said he, "and
if, in rejecting that which is just, they
should, relying on their number and
wealth, force themselves through the lines
that limit our legitimate inheritance and
attempt to prey upon our national sub
stance, it will not be the Canadians fault
if, behind their fleet and within the sound
of their Atlantic cities, they hear nearer
and nearer the mighty voice of British
cannOns"
