THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION

Tho Committee arranging for the Con-

MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, Dec. lG.-Chair-
man Clarkson and his committee have
put in the day looking over The expose

Architect Adler, OF Chicago, rs to how
1t CAR best be arranged to suit thenceds
oil the convention next June. Part OF
the hotel assignments have been made.
Alcssrs.. Clarkson. Hobart, New, Congcr,
Fc4senden, llaines, DcYoung, Payne,

born, Barbour and the successor OF
Quay from Pennsylvania will be given

OF the national committee.
The following states will have their
headquarters at the West: Maine, Yer
mont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island,
New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey,
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Wiscon.
sin, Arkansas and North Dakota.
The West will care Tor half OF each
delegation. These having been pro-
rided Tor, tho rule OF first come iirs.
served, will be followed. The West al.
ready has applications from scores OF
prominent men, including such as De-
pew, Platt, Eassett and James Gordon
Bennett, of New York. There are ap.
plications from sevcnty-iivc newspapers
so lar, and from club delegations from
Philadelphia and Cincinnati.

to the cabinet, without making General
Golf feel that he had been left out OF
consideration.
The name OF Tai: for the Ohio circuit
is very highly praised. Judge Taft is
now the solic!tor-scncral OF the
treasury, and his promotion leaves
another vacancy for the Prcsi-
dent to fill. TAFT is ono of the
flness lawyers and jurists in the coun-
try, is young and vigorous, and promises
to give his circuit 4 long life OF useful
ness.
DEMOCRATS MAY KICK on WOODS.
There were lew inquiries made as to
whom is Judge Woods, nominated ior
the Indiana circuit. for his name is
familiar to every politician in the coun-
try and probably hated by all blind
Democrats on account OF his decision in
the "blocks OF five" circular letter case
shortly after the campaign OF 1888. Tho
Democrats will attempt to dcica. the
nomination, in all probability, but
when they learn that the lines are to
be drawn on party politics and Woods
is fought only as a Republican, and
thcrcis no disposition on the part OF
any Republican senator to vote against
his confirmation, the opposition will
melt away. Woods is referred to by
Senators Teller, IIoar, Justice Harlan,
and others who know him, as one OF
the best lawyers in the country, and
man with Il character far above re-
proach. 1t is understood that Judge
Monks, OF Winchester, Ind, will be-
come United States district Judge to
succeed Woods.
Chairman Hoar, OF the senate COM
mittco OIL the judiciary, said this after
noon that he would not call n meeting
OF his committee to consider. these
nominations till after the holidays, un-
less requested to do so by the president,
which is improbable, or the house re-
fuses to adjourn from next Saturday
till Monday or Tuesday, january or j,
as is now proposed. Two OF the circuit
judges nominated, Shipman and Woods,
are at present district judges, and the
president does not intend to nominate
their SUCCESSORS till their nominations
for the circuit courts are confirmed, as
there does not now exist vacancies in
the district iudncships.

PlrTsDURGH, Pa, Dec. 16.-Perhaps
the most exciting event in oil circles to.
day was tho strike ut the we'll OF Daw-
son, McNair & Co., in the Smiths Ferry
field, Beaver county. The we'll was re-
ported last week as in tho sand and
showing for n producer, but that ono
which would mako 1000 barrels a day
would be found was altogether unoX-
pected. 1t is on the thirty-fivc aero
tract OF tho Ferry Company, and is be-
tween Georgetown and the Ohio river.
AS soon rs the bit got enough into the
sand 10 get tho pay the oil began TO
ilow ut the rate OF fifty barrels
IN hour. No precautions Ind been talk
en- to save the oil or avoid fire, Us every
body expected the well would be dry
hole. Tho consequence OF the neglect
TO move the Jorge was disastrous. Tho
gas and oil caught fro and the rig, rope,
engine and nearly everything clso con-
nccted with the well was destroyed.
The flame from tho burning oil shot up
eighty foct high, and at n late hour to-
night the well was still on fire, all efforts
to extinguish the flames proving una
vailing.
1t looks like nowfcld, and the omni-
present leaser is on the ground taking
UP the territory to the southwest.
The production in the Mcdonald field
to-day was the same rs that for the
previous day, 81 900 barrels. The stocks
in the field were also the same rs report
ed Tuesday, 10000 barrels. The new
wells which came in the first three
days OF this week have served not
only to increase the production over
that OF Saturday, but also to hold it up
to the present estimate. Only ono we'll
WAS reported in the Gordon sand yes
tcrday. The Robbins No. l, OF Nolan &
Co., at Laurel Hill, tapped tho Gordon,
and last night was reported to bc max
ing oil at the rate OF thirty barrels an
hour. This well is now the best Cor
don sand producer in the field.

Catcliings, Reel and Burrows.
There was some surprise ut the sclec.
tion OF Mr.. Catchings, as it was thought
that Mr.. Springer would be the next

1t is apparent that Speaker Crisp has
put behind all prcccdents ami does not
intend 10 follow the usual schedule in
the makeup Of the committees. 1t is
now said that the speaker is inclined to
reconsider his selection OF Springer for
the head OF the ways and means COM

radical FREQ traders.

fered resolution providing ior the an.
pointment OF 4 standing committee on

United States circuit judges ior the cir
cult composing tho states OF West Eir-
ginia, Virginia, Maryland and North
Carolina. which was announced with
those OF five others in the nominations
sent to the senate by the President this
afternoon, was u pleasant surprise to
General Colts Republican friends at
the capitol and in the departments. On
Ill sides the selection is commented
upon in 4 most favorable way, both
froma personal and legal point OF view.
Even the Democrats do not hesitate TO
express themselves to the effect that the
general is in every way qualified for the
high position for which the President
has selected him. Democrats, however,
when taking q partisan view OF the mp
pointmcnt, declare tits purely politi-
cal appointment. The West Virginia
Democrats appear to be as well pleased
with the nomination, from q political
standpoint, rs the generals most ardent
admirers. u
WHY DEMOCRATS LlEE,lr.
While they do not hesitate to declare
that the selection is thoroughly politi.
cal one, without attempting 10 detract
anything from his legal qualifications,
they believe it is u good thing for their
party Tor the simple reason that the APP
pointmcnt removes General tioti from
