COLUMBUS DlSAPPOINTED.
1t Had Expected to Have a Big Time
Over Thufman's Nom inatiOn Las
Night.

COLUMBUS, OHIO, June THE adjournment Of
the st. Louis convention over another day with
out making the nomination for vice-President
caused great disappointment here. The Thurman
Cluo mad taken charge OF arrangements for
parade last evening, in which all organizations OF
the city were to participate, and after proceeding
TO Thurmans residence and calling him out for
serenade speech, other prominent democrats were
to speak, also the presidents OF the board OF trade
and city council, who are republicans Announce
ments were made in the local papers that the re-
ceptlOn and demonstration are postponed until
Thursday evening. There were many visitors at
Ihurmans residence yesterday, and the old
Roman expected the convention to close,
but he exhibited less signs Of dis
appointment than the admirtng friends around
him, who thought the adjournment implied
scheme TO defeat "the Old Roman" as he Is famil-
1arly called here. Some even asserted that the
demonstration would turn to such as they had
when Thurman returned from the Chicago con-
vention four years ago, after his defeat. lie was
met at the depot by a large procession and eS-
corted TO his home with displays OF fireworks
along the line OF march and notices OF denuncia-
t1On OF the Ohio delegates who voted against him.
Notwithstanding the favorable reports from st.
Louis, there Is much apprehension felt here that
there may yet be some combination formed that
will beat Thurman. The jobbing houses here
have received SO many orders for red bandanas
that they have run out and could not have met
the local demand had there been q demonstration
last night. Tammany Hail telegraphs that II
Thurman Is nominated they will stop here en-
route home.

Mr.. MoFgan's Speech To-day.
| At ITS coNcLrsIoN THE SENATE ADJOURNED TILL
MONDAY.


At ITS CONCLUSION THE SENATE ADJOURNED TILL
MONDAY.
One OF the sentences OF Mr.. Morgan's speech In
the Senate to-day on the fishery treaty was, 1.-THE
Senate may make war necessary, as am very
much afraid we are doing here to-day"
In an allusion TO republican Senators, Nj. Nor.
gan said that the only preparation which they
were making for war was an attempt to enlist the
sympathies OF disanected subjects OF her majesty.
Their action Che sa1d) was doubtless with q view
to exciting the antagonism OF Irish voters TO the
President, because OF bis alleged subserviency
20 British influences. That charge ranked with
injustice. Congress. he said, had given to the
President the power which all the PreSi-
dents had possessed since 1850 to
wage paper war on British commerce, and
had then stood by to see whether the Presi-
dent would push that paper war into the category
Of real war. II ne had done 80 the country would
have cried out for his impeachment; but having
tailed to DO so he was charged in the report OF the
majority OF the committee on foreign relations,
with uSurpatiOn, and with the abuse OF
constitutional power, because he had sought to
md peaceaDle way to get the nights claimed by
the United States. And a threat had been made
BY the committee OF future dealing with the
President held In reserve for the time being.
Mr.. Morgan finished the reading at 1:5O, and
the resolutions went over without action.
After some routine business the Senate, at g
p. m, adjourned till Monday.

BURGLAR IN A PARsONAGE.-The burglar who
has been doing up this city for some days past
paid visit to the parsonage Of st. Stephens
church, adjoining the church building, corner OF
Pennsylvania avenue and 25th street northwest,
last night The entrance Was effected by climbing
through the basement window, which had been
left open. The first room entered was one in
which the Rev. Father Wilson, OF Harper's Ferry,
was sleeping. In this room the burglar found an
open-face gold watch, hunttng-case gold watch,
with chain and gold cross attached. and about $40
In money; all Of which belonged to the visiting
pastor Of the Harper's Ferry church. Being so
successful In this room, the burglar next entered
the room of Father McNally, the pastor OF st.
Stephens church, but he made SO much noise that
the pastor was awakened. He saw the burglar
but was unable to tell whether he was white or
colOred. Thinking his early morning visitor was
an inmate OF the house, the pastor asked what he
wanted. He received no reply, and the burglar
left the house. The pastor again fell asleep, and
was surprised when he got up to learn that he had
spoken 10 burglar and that his visitor had been
robbed. The police were at once notified, and the
case is being Investigated by detectives Mattlngy
and Wheeler.
