M'KINLEY's OPPONENT.
John G. Warwick Nominated for Congress by
Ohm Damncrats

Ohio Democrats
COLUMBUS (ObiO). July 11.-There was a
supposition that when the Democratic
Congressional Convention for the Eigh-
teenth District, now in session at Orrville,
adjourned last night matters would be har-
monzed and a nomination made during the
early balloting this morning. This was not
the case and the convention is having great
difficulty in settling upon man to put
against Mckinley. The first ballot this
morning (the thirty-eighth) stood Monot,
521s, Stillwell 46k, Warwick 81, Zimmer-
man Al, Lewis Z, Welty 7, Sherrick 7. On
the forty-seventn ballot Warwick took the
lead, having tilty-Seven votes, but an at
tempted stampede 10 him failed to carry

journ until September Sd failed to secure
second and called forth cries of No."
showing determination to hang together
until the contest is ended. Monot and
Warwick were close together on the fifty
fourth ballot, the former still holding his
52b and the latter having pulled up to SO.
John G. Warwick was nominated on the
seventy-fourth ballot.
Warwick is native of Ireland. He is a
director of several railroad companies and

Special Dispatches to THE MORNING CALL.

HALIFAX, July IA terrible accident
occurred at Dartmouth tonight by which
number of people were drowned, but the
exact number Of victims will not be known
till tomorrow. The disaster happened by
reason of chain attached to ferry-boat
slipping cut of place, and allowing the
front Of the bridge 10 sink and precipitate
a crowd Of six or seven hundred men,
women and children into the Water.
The people were crowded there, waiting
for the ferry steamer Annex, which had
just arrived from New York, to dock.
When the steamer got within two feet of
the landing number of persons jumped
on board, and at that moment the accident
occurred. Tie outer end of the bridge
went down suddenly, and the terror
stricken crowd slipped off into
the harbor as though they were descend
ing a slide. piling On top of each other,
slreking for help and scrambling for
means of safety.
For some minutes there was a confused
mass of men, women and children strug-
Cling in the water, but the accident had
hardly happened before dozen
men leaped to the rescue, and
the drowning people were rapidly
passed up to men standing above on the
wharves, and the rapidity with which the
rescuers performed their work resulted in
a great majority of those who fell in
being saved from death.
When the crowd slipped off the landing
stage the people around, numbering some
hundreds, crowded to the sides of the
wharf aud threw sticks and boards to the
struggling mass in The water, while a num-
Der Of life preseTYers were thrown 70 them
from the steamer. Many were struck and
Injured by flying boards and all the bodies
recovered bear cuts and bruises.
The statements Of spectators show that
most Of those who fell in were women and
children, and the scenes Immediately fol-
lowing the disaster were frightful When
all those in sight had been brought to land,
the work Of graphing for the drowned was
commenced. Within two hours four bodies
were recovered, but up to midnight no
other victims had been found.
II is believed that at least three or four
others were lost, but the exact number can
not be told at present Intense excitement
prevailed in Dartmouth and Halifax when
the news Of the disaster was spread and
thousands flOcked to the scene, where they
remained until a late hour watching those
who were working in the water.
Owing to the confusion it is impossible
to tell who are missing, but the number
cannot be large. The names Of those whose
bodies have been recovered are:
Miss BESSIE FOSTER.
PETER BOYLE.

President Harrison Says Free Trade Would

CHICAGO, July 1.-THE Journal this even-'

Carlisle. Pa, and gives the text of letter
written by President Harrison. 1t was
written in response to an invitation to at
tend the National Grange. In it he says:
"The tariff is the question of the day,
and the people should be thoroughly
educated on 1t. As there is no
doubt that the farming element is
the backbone of this or any other country,
it is necessary to understand this question
so they can choose between free trade and
protection. The free-trade question is a
dangerous one to handle, and If it should
throughout the land, something never ex-
perienced by American peOple."
