PROHIBITION.
The Cold Water People Preparing for Their Con-
yenton Which Meets in Music Hall, Cincin-
matt, on Wednesday-POssibls PreSidsn
tial Nominees-Lots of Delegates.

CINCINNATI, o., June 27.-The nomina-
ton for candidate of the National Prohi-
bition party will not go by default this
year, and to all appearances it will be nee
essary that there shall be q roll call before
the nomination is made This un-
usual scene in a National Prohioi-
ton convention of more than one name
being earnestly urged as the Presidential
candidate is not due 10 any feeling that the
blight has fallen on both tie old parties aud
rendered possible aProhioitionlst's selec-
ton, but 10 the fact that at least one OF the
persons whose names will go before the
convention wants the nomination and has
friends earnestly working TO have IT given
to him.
Heretofore it has been hard for the prohi-
bltionists TO induce an acceptance OF the
nomination. Mr. w. j. Demorest, OF New
York, who, with his wife, is the we'll
known publisher of a fashion magazine,
wants 10 be the candidate and quite d
boom has been worked up for him. Mr..
Demorest, however, is not the choice OF a
majority Of the delegates now on
Size ground, most OF whom favor Gen.
Bidwell. of California. Gen. Bidwell
is likely TO secure the nomination on the
first ballot. He has been in Congress, is
said to be a man Of high character and aoil-
ity and able 10 fulnll the duties OF lne OF

Gideon T. Stewart, OF Ohio. will! also be
put in nomination. The little uncertainty
which exists over the nomination is not
pleasing TO the Prohibtionists, as it takes
away nearly all interest in the convention
and they wish interest 10 keep up as a
means whereby to advance the prohibition
movement
The amalgamation Of the Prohibition and
Peoples party which has been heralded as
likely 10 be the biggest thing Of the conven-
ton, is now not at all probable so far as
this campaign is concerned and can practi-
cal.y be dismissed for the present. Chair
man. Dickie of the national committee, said
IL might not even be mentioned. IL the
matter comes up at all, 1t can hardly be in
any other form than as a suggestion for
efforts after the coming campaign is over
The convention will open in Music Hall
at 10 o'clock Wednesday morning There
are LAG delegates and as many alternates.
One thousand delegates are expected, the
absentees being principally from the South.

CAPTAIN BORUP
Deserves Censure for Corrupting a French
Official.

Official.
PARIS, June 27.-The American lega-
tiob here has cabled 10 Washington ask
ing the recall Of Capt. Borup, the mill
tary attache, who is accused OF having
secured plans and descriptions Of
French Notifications for illeEal purpos-
es from a clerk In the naval department.
Capt. Borup has apparently lost his
head, and has given several contradic-
tory versions OF the affair in interviews
he has had with newspaper representa-
tives. A French detective, in citizens
clothes sits on a bench in the Avenue
Marceau watching the residence Of
Capt. Borup and the doors Of the Amer
lean legation.
Mr.. T. jefferson Coolidge, the Ameri-
can Minister. has Informed NJ. Ribot,
Minister Of Foreign Affairs, that Capt.
Borup admits having paid for secret
Official documents but declares that in
doing this he only followed the example
of all military attaches.
Mr.. Ribot replied that If this was true
il was most deplorable, that its exist
ence could not be admitted. Even il
the custom did exist Capt. BorCp de-
served censure for practlcing II. He
had attempted to corrupt an official by
Offering money il order to possess state
secrets-an offense that would render
him liable TO prosecution II he was not
In the diplomatic service.
Minister Coolidge in reply admitted
the justice OF NJ. Ribot's remarks and
expressed deep regret for the occurrence.
Mr.. Coolidge has cabled NJ. Ribot's note
TO Washington.

Day-Chase Against the Field For Gov
ernor.
Fort WAYNE, IND, June ~
Special trains on the railroads center
ing here have been bringing in dele
gates this forenoon, and it looks now as
though the Republican State convention
tomorrow will be one of the largest In
the history Of the party. The fifty-one
candidates for the sixteen offices are
here. Governor Chase was the last
candidate to arrive
The chief interest is In the Guberna-
torial contest and it is still Chase
against the field with but little or no
prospect of the field uniting. ChaSe's
opponents have hoped that Hon, j. n.
Huston might be drawn into the race,
but this morning a telegram was re-
ceived from that gentleman announcing
his dissemination to be a candidate
against Governor Chase. Mr.. Huston's
friends say his name will not therefore
go before the convention, so long as
Chase is candidate. II Chase
should get out of the race at any
stage OF the contest Mr. Huston's
name could then be used. The stand
of Mr.. Huston has encouraged the Gov
ernor's friends and they now assert
that considerable strength which might
have gone 10 Huston on the first ballot
go to the Governor. George w. Steele,
Ex-Governor OF Oklahoma, is still looking
over the field but his friends say he will
not be a candidate unless it should be-
- -
mated. The position of Huston and
Steele leaves the anti-ChaSe men found
erlng about in vain effort TO find a
candidate with whom the Governor can
be beaten.

COLLAPSE OF A BUILDING.
A Score Of Workmen Buried Under the
Ruins-Many Dead.

A Score Of Workmen Buried Under the
Ruins-Many Dead.
A building which was being erected at Ogden,
N. j., fell yesterday afternoon, burying twenty
men beneath the ruins. The accident occurred
BY the sudden giving way Of a derrick causing
the entire structure of massive wooden beams
and timbers to collapse. But few Of the work
men employed on the building escaped. There
was great excitement, and big crowd of men
employed in other factories stopped work, and
the search for bodies under the wreck of the
collapsed building was Immediately begun.
The first victim taken out was an italian work
man. The man was dead, his body being terri
bly, mangled. Soon after three others were dis
covered, and were removed in diving condi-
ton.
Up to q late hour last night twelve men and a
boy had been taken out from the ruins Of the
collapsed factory, all seriously, and four fatally
wounded. Several Of the others, it is feared,
will die. The work Of rescuing the victims
from the ruins was kept up all night. Many
Of the men who were at work in the erection Of
the factory lived in neighboring villages, and
when they did not return home from their work
at the usual time their friends and other work.
men came to seek them.
There we're hundreds Of men at the ruins,
and the work Of rescue was pushed forward
very fast. The injuries of those taken from the
ruins were Of the most terrible nature, the
limbs Of some being torn of, while the faces
and bodies Of others were crushed almost be-
yond recognition.
The collapsed building was being erected by
the New Jersey and Pennsylvania Ore Con-
centration Company, whose office is in New
York.
