empIoye with the ]. L. Perry Manufact-
uring company, and whose home is in
the town of Watertown, when crossing the
railroad track on Third street, was CARROT
ed and robbed of a silver watch and a

missed getting hold of Mr.. Baier's pocket
book, containing small amount of money
Tt was very dark at the time, and Mr..
Bsier says he was not aware of the pre-
sence of any one until he was grabbed
suddenly by the throat and checked. It
was evidently done by person used to
the business.

Chairman Williams called the committee

PERMANENT ORGANIZATION.
A Change Only In Chairmanship will be
Recommended.

CHICAGO, Ill June 10.---The committee on
permanent organization met after the ad-
iournment OF the convention. The session
was q short one and resulted In an unani-
nous recommendation which will be report
od TO the convention tomorrow, that the
Hon. NJ. NJ. Estec, OF California, DO made
permanent chairman. and that the remainder
Of the temporary organization be made per-
mancnt
The result Is that the Caliorninns arc in
high feather tonight. They feel that their
work has been fruitless So far they are at
cvcns with their Democratic brethren Of the
coast and they still hope that when the gayel
shall have fallen upon the final adjournment
they will be able 10 go them one better"
having secured the first place for their fayor-
ite on the national ticket, instead OF the
second.
This naturally leads up 10 the fact that
while the men from the Pacific slope still
indulge In the lustiest and most constant
cheers for the man who came across TO the
entire continent to them, they are not 30
sure 10 work the boom for him from the
beginning The laborcrs from the eastern
Blaine missionary do not appear 10 have
been frltlcss, for there Is no longer that
outspokcn declaration that the coast would
know nobody except Blaine, from first 10
last. A reporter for the Associated Press
tonight made diligcnt inquiry for the name
Of the man chosen by the men from the
Golden Gate 20 present the name Of the
Plumcd knight when CALIFORNIA; name
should be called and put forward her
fayorltc on first place on the ticket.
Tho search was fruitlcss, except
TO the extent Of securing an unanimous
nvowal that the ora,or had not been chosen
0nc Of the Californians vouchsafcd the
further significant Information that when
CALIFORNIA; name Is called no one will re-
spond for the naming Of n fayorito son,
cousin or brothcr-in-law; that, IN point OF
fact, u has been decided that Mr.. Blainc's
name should not be obtrudcd upon the con-
yention nj all during the first few ballots.
For whom California would vote In the
meantime, or what she would do thereafter,
he was not prepared 10 say"
