Mr. w. c. Haudlan here said the conven-
tion seemed To be good deal at sea as TO
candidates There was some disappoint-
ment in some quarters and he suggested
the Convention ought 10 adjourn for one
week. The coming session OF the Legisla-
ture would be a most important one, as up

fleet upon the gentleman who had been

Mr.. A. C.. Harrell seconded the motion TO
adjourn.
Mr. ]. +. Jones thought such a course
was unnecessary. The Convention was
Just as capable of making a selection now
as IL would be a week hence. The Demo-
cratic party of Ohio county expected the
body TO make nominations, and II ought TO

WASHINGTON, June 23.-Conferences up
on the silver bill between the free coiner
and Republican members of the House and
all their allies in the Senate have been the
order OF the day. The bill is in such sit
uation that the free coinage Republicans
cannot control the action Of the House up
on II, while the opponents Of free coinage
have il in their power TO prevent any legis-
lation by simply keeping the hands OF the
Committee ON Coming. All the Republi-
cans admit that some silver legislation at
this session of Congress and at as early
day as possible, is a political necessity;
The free coinage Republicans have received
assurances that they can have
EVERYTHING THEY WANT
except free coinage, and upon this assur'
ance. added 10 the conviction that If they
now insist upon free coinage they will get
nothing they have all, or nearly all. agreed
10 vote to non-concur in the Senate amend
ments. aud let the bill be sent to Commit
tee of Conference.
The Committee of Conference will re
port the House bill without the bullion re-
demption proviso, and the report will be
agreed 10 by both Houses, and the bill will
be prepared by the President. For obvi-
Gus reasons the Republican leaders
wish to have the silver ques
ton settled before the House begins 10
consider the election bill and before the
Senate takes up the tariff bill, so It's prob
able that the committee on rules will make
a report within day or two upon the reso-
lation making a special order for the consi-
deration Of the silver bill on some day this
week for non-concurrence in the Senate
amendments and to ask conference with
the Senate upon the disagreeing votes of
the two Houses.

Yesterdays GAME.
Wheeling is Given Game and She Loses
One.

Two games between Wheeling and Can
ton were promised yesterday afternoon on
the Island Park for one admission, but the
failure of the Canton club TO show up in
time prevented the first game, and it was
forfeited TO Wheeling. This was an easy
one.
The next game, however, turned out
quite differently, and the Cantons won.
They put in their farmer pitcher Young,
and he put upa great game. Young GER
tainly is pitcher from away back and the
home team couldn't solve his delivery with
any degree of success, Pap Lytle and
Billy George being the only two who secur-
ed hits.
Gibson pitched for Wheeling, and in the
third and fourth innings the visitors sue
ceeded In punching their hits so well that
seven earned runs were piled up. After
this they could not do much with Gibs0n's
delivery, but they had no occasion as the
game was lost and won. Both teams put up
a stiff fielding game. The attendance was
somewhat improved.
Wheeling made run in the first on
Lytle's double and Georges single, and in
the second another on wilds throws by
Rodermund and Young and throw TO sea
ond TO catch Gibson.
Canton in the third made two runs on
Ya3lS's single, Youngs double and Darrah's
sigle. n the fourth five were made on
Johnson's double, Il passed ball, n hit and
steal by Hart, base on balls single, a
double and another single. There was very
little excitement in the game Following

syndicate, which has just bought the
Union Stock Yards in this city, is likely to

sary.

stock yards and freight switching yards,
TO serve in the capacity of a clearing house
for all freight handled by all Of the rail
roads running into the city.

the old company will develop its new

WASHINGTON, d. c.. June Secretary
Blaine has driven n wedge into the Repub-

driver. He now openly declares that he
represents the administration in opposing
the Mckinley bill, and that the passage Of
that bill would ruin the Republican party.
He says il not only ncutralizes but actually
obstructs the avowed policy Of this admin
istration with regard 10 trade relations
with South and Central American
Republics. Blaine is now freely express
ing his opinion TO the newspapers, and his
arguments have already influenced Re
publicans in both houses OF Congress \
singular feature is that Western Republi-
cans whose constituents are most interest
ed in developing foreign trade are the
principle opponents of Blaine's plan to
open foreign markets for American pro
ducts. The Democrats are looking on with
entire satisfaction. while strong element
of the Republican party comes over TO

\ Bad Gang Severely Punished by New
jerseys White Caps.

New York. June 23.-Several weeks ago
band of White Caps was organized at
Mays Landing, n j., and since then they
have been busy getting rid of obnoxious
characters
Not only have many of the latter been
driven out of the place, but number of
others who claim to be respectable mem
bers of society have received threatening
notices.
The only ones who did not seem to care
about the White Caps were number OF
men who were in the habit of frequenting
the woods back of the place every Sunday,
where they spend the day IN gambling and
profanity Yesterday they were engaged
in that occupation when regulators swoop-
ed down upon them and beat them in Il
most unmerciful manner. They were
warned that repetition of the offense
would meet with sterner measures.
