do not fire upon helpless women.

MINNEAPOLIS Is MERRY.
DESPITE THE LATENESS OF THE
NEWS THE CITY GOES WILD.

| Everybody Will Work Tooth and Nail to
Handsomely Entertain the Visitors
The Political Effects OF the Victory in
the Entire Northwest.
MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 23.-The town is
wild tonight with excitement over the an
nouncement of the fact that this city has Sc
cured the National Republican Convention.
All the evening the Tribune was besieged with
inquiries regarding the news from Wash
ington. During the storm in the East the
news was slow in reaching this city.
The politicians and business men, how
ever, remained on the street until the bull
letin announcing the result was received
The news spread quickly throughout the
city, and all over the town could be heard
the cheers and yells of the excited people
On all sides nothing but words of praise
could be heard for the noble work done by
the band of Minneapolis workers at the
national capital. All classes, irrespective
of politics, are enthusiastic.
The hatchet has been buried and all will
work tooth and toe nail to properly enter
tain the delegates and vast crowd that will
be here at the same time. Since the an
nouncement of the result all carping has
ceased, and there is not person who did
not think that Minneapolis would be sure
to get it.
sidered most excellent thing for the city
and the entire Northwest The dissatis-
faction among the Grangers will be quelled
and the result will be an honest money
platform without the influence of Wall
street hanging over it. All in all, it has
been a great night for the Northwest, and
Minneapolis in particular.

NEW GAS FIELDS FOUND.
If Properly Developed, There Is Enough
of the Fuel to Run the Mills.

If Properly Developed, There Is Enough
of the Fuel to Run the Mills.
There is plenty of gas in this section, and
many think that the mills will once more
return to the use of the fuel. Gas men are
responsible for the statement that more
good territory has been discovered the last
three months than in the three years before.
The Coraopolis field is promising, and the
gas extends to the northeastern end of the
McCurdy oil territory. Last Saturday the
Phlladelphis Company brought in a good
well in this section. The O'Brien well at
Finleyvi1le, not far from Pittsburg, is one
of the largest wells ever struck. The Royal
Gas Company has a lot of frst-class terri
torv out toward Steubenville. Those in the
business think that if the new fields were
properly developed that the supply would
be more than sufficient to run all the in
dustries in Pittsburg at coal rates, if not
lower. The people got disgusted and dis
couraged too soon.
A strange thing happened the Royal gas
well near Venice, on the Barrett.farm. The
gas was struck some time ago in the fifth
sand, and it poured out in steady stream
until a few days since, when it stopped. 1t
was discovered that the well had caved in,
and it was supposed that it was full of rub
bish to the bottom. The men were ordered
last Saturday to drill it over again. They
had not been at work long when there was
a terrific explosion and the tools were blown
out of sight, leaving the we'll as clean as a
whistle. It seems that the cave-in had formed
bridge, and when it was pierced the
pressure of the accumulated gas did the
rest. The well is now supplying as much
gas as ever. This is the first time in the
history of the business that such an event
has occurred The chances are that any
number of wells that have ceased flowing
are clogged up with debris.

A DARK DAY IN CLEVELAND.

The Gloom Succeeded by Torrents of Rain
and Much Colder Weather.
CLEVELAND, Nov. 23.-The storm here
to-day was the worst that has happened in g
long time Rain has fallen continually
since yesterday afternoon. About noon to.
day it became so dark that lamps and gas
were lighted all over the city. The dark
ness lasted half an hour, when the wind
shifted to the west and the rain came down
in torrents.
The wind was blowing gale at sundown,
but has subsidized somewhat since. 1t is
growing colder. A railroad man who came
in over the Erie Railroad this evening, said
there was two feet of snow 20 miles south
of the city.
At Ashtabula the storm did much dam
age. A brick school building collapsed at
o'clock. The children were taken out by
the teachers when they saw the storm COM
ing and none were hurt. Many roofs were
blown off and other damage DONE At
Akron the wind blew in the front of John
Pringle's brick livery stable, and played
havoc with signs and shade trees. The rain
turned to snow about noon, and the fall was
very heavy, seriously interfering with tele-
graphic communication.

AFTER THE P, C. & Y. ROAD.
President Schwartz Denies That 1t Is to Be
Sold to the Penn Company.

President Schwartz Denies That 1t Is to Be
Sold to the Penn Company.
1t was reported on the street yesterday
that negotiations were in progress for the
sale of the Pittsburg, Charters and Yough-
iogheny road to the Pennsylvania Company.
President James E. Schwartz, when seen,
said he was tired of denying such rumors.
He continued that the road was not for
sale to the Pennsylvania or Lake Erie peo-
pie. 1t has been known for some time that
the Pennsylvania Company would like to
get the little line which is great coal
road. 1t runs from Charters, on the Lake
Erie, up Toms run and under the Panhandle
at Mansfield. 1t taps valuable coal mines
in Allegheny and Washington counties.
Their coal shipments are mainly to the
lake ports. The traffic is given to the Pan
handle and Lake Erie roads, but owing to
the easy connection at CHARTERS, the latter
line gets the bulk of the traffic To secure
this freight for the c. & p road is the aim
of the Pennsylvania in trying to get the
P, C. & Y.
The road connects with the Panhandle at
Mansfield, and by way of the Ohio river
bridge the coal could be transferred to the
c. & P. road Such a move would shut the
Lake Erie out of considerable freight bust
ness.

NEWSY NOTES FROM NEARBY TOWNS

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.I
ROCHESTER,, PA, Nov. 23-The commit
tee appointed by the Allegheny Presbytery
to report the action of the Presbytery in
the case of Rev. Joseph Bausman to his
congregation, did SO this evening through
its chairman, DR.. Campbell The latter
read, by way of practice, the report of the
committee to the Presbytery, and the cita-
tion to the congregation to show cause why
the pastoral relations should not be discoI.-
tinued
The Presbytery, he said, had not, in con-
tinuing the present relation, committed it
selfto hisviews. sprolongation of the pas
tora1 relationship he explained to be due to
thePresbytery' s interest in Rev. Mr.. Bausman
and its inclination toward leniency in view
of the present disturbed condition of affairs
in theological circles. He expressed the
opinion that the Presbytery believed that
Rev. Mr.. Bausman had not arrived at his
present views by prolonged study of the
Scriptures, but had imbibed them, to some
extent, from others and had allowed his
sympathetic feelings undue sway. The Pres
bytery, he said, hoped that Mr.. Bausman
would change his views.
The pastoral relations, he added, would
be continued for reasonable length of time
to give him time for reflection. He urged
the factions of the church to bury all differ
ences and TO work for the common good of
the church.
Rev. Mr.. Kennedy, another member of
the committee, followed DR.. Campbell in
a very brief address, in which he said that
he wishes the people to fully grasp and re-
tain the basis Of the action of the Presby-
terry, which, he said, does not consider the
case matured. Its basis, he said, is the
question of the brothers soundness in the
faith. He said the matter was not settled.
Rev. Mr.. Mccormick, in few brief SEN
tences. counseled harmony, and the meet
ing closed

Continued from F1r1 rage
to entertain a political convention with
fresh water. We could do better than that.
We want the Republican convention and
then possibly the Democrats will the more
forcibly recognize the peculiar attractions we
can offer to them in our world-famous
incompatible Monongahela "whisky. "
Throughout his brief speech Mr.. Stone was
quite happy, and made an excellent i'm
preston in his maiden Washington speech
Hon. w. R. Bradley, of Kentucky, made
one of the most eloquent and powerful ora
tions of the day in favor of Chattanooga.
This closed the speaking, and at 1:3O the
committee went into executive session, ex-
bers. The committee decided to ballot Sec
reilly.
The first informal ballot resulted: New
York, 9; Chicago, 0; Omaha, 5; Minneapolis,
13; Cincinnati, 4; San Francisco, 8; Detroit,

of opinion upon this feature,
too, but June 7 was finally

not fatally injured. The west gable end of
