The Democratic Convention.

The announcement that Judge
Thurman will accept the Democratic
nomination for Vice President leaves
the work Of the st. Louis Convention
practically done in advance of its
meeting. There will he u few contest
ed seats to be disposed Of and Il plat
form to be adopted, but so far as the
candidates ere concerned they have
already been selected.
twill not be the first time that q
National Convention found its real
work done before its members assem-
bled. But, except in the case Of the
second nomination Of Lincoln, when
the exigencies of great civil war
pointed to the folly OF swapping hor-
SEES while crossing dangerous stream,
cut and dried nominations have been
the work of the politicians and not OF
the rank and file OF the parties in
whose names they were made. 1t is
in this important particular that the
expected action OF the coming Demo
cratic Convention win differ from
that Of former conventions Of this
kind. There are many OF the party
workers who have no affection fol
Cleveland and would very cheerfully
help to nominate another candidate
if they could. But the unmistakable
sentiment of the party and the coun
try has required the Presidents re
nomination as matter OF course, ant
there are many delegates now OF
their way to st, Louis to vote for {
candidate they would not have chosen
oftheirow accord.
| So Of the nomination of Thurman
| for Vice President. The minor Dem
ocratic politicians in various Localities
have discussed for weeks the availa
bility OF a dozen other candidates
not with any particular reference tt
their fitness for the place, but with
view to making the ticket strong il
doubtful States. But the suggestion
OF Humans name has led to spon
famous and overwhelming popular in
dorsement, in spite OF the fact that h

FIGHTING HUNGARIANS,

They Attack a Gang of Working Miners,
 but Are Repulsed.
 HAzLEToN, Pa, March s.-The break In the miners strike here in the Lehigh region is gradually extending, and nearly one-haf of the collieries of the region are now at work. A. Paldee & Co. yesterday began shipping coal to market.
 The leaders of the strike have been making every effort to hold the men back, but without avail. With such large breach in their rank. the utter impossibility of winning in this struggle is realized, and they ar, re- turning to work upon exactly the same terms as they were working under when they struck six months ago.
 At least twenty or thirty Hungarian strik- CTS went last evening to the Sand Run col fiery of M. s. Kemmer & Co.,, where work was resumed on Monday, and attacked a number of the outside hands with clubs aud stones One of the men, an outside boss, was dangerously injured The workingmen, as- sisted by two Coal and Iron officers, suc- ceeded in repulsing the Huns after lively fight. The affair caused great excitement in the town for several hours, and an additional force of policemen have been stationed there to prevent any further attacks.

 ate Treasury.
 CHARLESTON, s. C., March 8.-Mr. Chris topher Gustavus Memminger, a member of the Confederate congress from South Caro- lima and secretary of the Confederate treas ury, died last night in this city.

THE INTERNATIONAL FIGHT.
Boulogne Filled with London Roughs to
 Help Mitchell.

Boulogne Filled with London Roughs to
 Help Mitchell.
 BoULoGNE, March S.-John L. Sullivan is safe and sound l,ere in hiding, and anxiously awaiting word from Mitchells party to set out for the fighting ground. Boulogne is filled with east end London roughs and there is a strong probability that a general melee will take place at the ring side. ...
 Manager Phillips is in France with Sulli. van, but Ashton and Holske were soon in formed of the latest move of the Mitchell party, and have taken steps to frustrate their evident intent of foul play. "Chippy" Nor ton, at whose Windsor hotel Sullivan trained, and who is warm admirer of the Boston champion, left London last night, accom- panied by some twenty men for the purpose of seeing Sullivan through.
 Just before he set out for France a core sponient saw Stock Broker Angel. He had heard rumors as to the transportation of Mitchell's roughs, and he said in the most em- phatic manner possible that if they appeared at the ring he would postpone the match and call at another place, and that if they made any demonstration of violence he would i'm mediately award the match to Sullivan. Mr. Angel is not seraphic but evidently of a very good prize fighting sort

MIR. ouTHwAITs's REPORT

 Pacific Railroads Committee.

In Support of the New Diu Don SAs
 Pacific Railroads Committss.
 WASHINGTON, March S.-Mr. Outh watch report in support of the bill which he reported yesterday to the house from the committes Pacific railroads indebtedness, is unusually voluminous It is largely made up of ab- stracts from the reports of the special Pacific railroad commission, the directors of the gov- ernment, and the presidents message on the subject. It gives detailed explanations of each section of the measure and is accompa- nied by tabulated statements, showing how the payments are to be worked out It shows the effects of the bill, as represented by the actu- ary of the treasury, requires the company to pay to the government about S102, ,OOO, ,OO- $50, ,OO0 QUO interest and S52 O00, 900 as princd- pal; that while it is a bill proposing to extend for fifty years the Union Pacific indebted ness the practical effect is really only an ex- tension of twenty years; that the payments are to begin immediately and to increase largely every year thereafter, while under the present law the payments to the govern ment are steadily diminishing. The principal change in the original Outhwaite bill, the rs- port states, is in the section providing the series of payments during the first ten year1 Instead of paying one-third of 1 per can't additional to the interest during the first ten year period, the company is to pay one-tenth of per cent. during the first five years and seven-tenths of l per cent. for the next five years This is to enable the company to iquidate outstanding private debts which soon become due.

THE NEW CHINESE TREATY

More Effectually Bars the Door Against
 Our Celestial Brethren.
 WASHINGTON, March S.-The new Chinese treaty will be signed within few days by Secretary Bayard and the Chinese minister This treaty, it is understood, contains very rigid provisions against the importation of Chinese laborers into this country. It is an absolute inhibition against such importation. But one question of difference that was not easily settled arose in the demand of the Chinese minister that Chinamen who had lived in the United States, and had acquired a residence here, should be permitted to pass between this country and their native land ad ibitum. The trouble in regard to this matter arose from the beliet that under the law restraining Chinese immigration. the plea of former residence had been utilized to bring in tens of thousands of new Chinamen It was finally arrrnged that any Chinaman who had made the United States his home and had acquired possession of property valued at $1 900 shall be permitted to visit China and return. The treaty will be sent to the senate for its action in few days
