In Memorfam,

At special meeting OF the Board of Di.
rectors of the Artisans Insurance Company,
held June s, the following resolution was
adopted:
profound regret OF the death of John Dun
lap, ESQ, one of the promoters of this COM
pany ana its Vice President since the year
1881: and they desire to enter upon the min
utes some suitable expression or their sense
OF the loss which they. as well as the COM
munity, have sustained in this event. BE it
therefore
lap, the Artisans Insurance Company has
been deprived of a constant and interested
ally, and this board OF most useful MEM
Der and sagacious counsellor. During all
the years OF its continuance his intercourse
with us was marked with al unfailing court
esy and kindness; and we mourn him not
only as business associate, but as Il revered
friend.
That we point to his long life of usefulness
honor and integrity Us striking eXempli-
ficationOf a true citizenship. A man of wide
culture and of marked executive ability, he
fulfilled with faithtulneSS and zeal all the
commercial, social and civic duties which
were in no small measure cast upon him.
While he sought no public position, he
avoided no public duty and his conscien-
tious performance OF every obligation of the
citizen to the Safe is worthy OF universal
imitation.
That while it is not our right to speak of
his private virtues in the intimate relations
of his family life, yet our long acquain ance
with the gentleness and the amiaDility of
his character renders it no formal tender of
sympathy that we make to his bereaved
family in their loss, the significance OF
which We Gun SO well appreciate. And
finally,
That these resolutions be spread upon
the minutes OF this board published in the
daily papers, and a copy of the same be
transmitted to the family of our deceased
associate. And that as II mark of respect,
the members OF the board attend his funeral
services in body.

GROWERS GREAT DAY.
Maryland Indorses Him Heartily, but
Leaves Delegates Unfettered.
ALABAMA SCREECHES FOR HIM,
But the Democratic and Alliance Factions
Don't Play Together.
MAINE RECOMMENDS HIS NOMINATION

BALTIMORE, June 8.-Hon. Barnes
Compton, Chairman of the Democratic State
| Committee, called the State Convention to
order to-day. Colonel Albert Richie was
chosen Temporary Chairman. He made q
address, in which he referred to ''the in
iquitous force bill'' and to the efforts of
Maryland's gallant son against it. These
phrases were received with great applause
and great cheer for Arthur P. German.
The usual committees were appointed and
short recess taken to enable them to prepare
their reports. Upon Resembling the tenn
porary organization was made permanent
and the Committee on Resolutions reported
the following platform:
Tho Democratic party of Maryland re-
affirms tie opinions expressed in the reso-
lutions OF the National Democratic Conven-
tions held in 1884 and 1888, expresses anew
the qualification so universally felt by our
people at the patriotic and able adnintstra-
tion of President Cleveland, and pledges
the Democracy of our State to the cordial
support of the nominations for the Presi-
dency and Vice Presidency of the United
States, I'd be made by the National Demo-
cratic Convention at Chicago.
Desirous above all things that such candi-
dates shall be nominated by that convention
as will organize the united and enthusiastic
support of the party in all sections of the
Union, and reposing full confidence in the
delegates whom it has selected, it deems it
inexpedient to letter them by instructions
as to the candidate for whom they shall
vote, suggesting only that, as at The National
Convention of 1888, they shall act as a unit
The Democratic State Central Commit
tee is authorized to fill any vacancy that
may occur on the electoral ticket, and the
delegates to Chicago are authorized to fill
any vacancy that may occur in the list of
delegates.
The resolutions name the delegates at
large as follows: Senator A. 2. German,
Governor Frank Brown, c. J. NJ. Gwynn,
Hon. Barnes Compton. L. V. Paughman,
I. Freeman Raisin, John S. Writ and
George NJ. Uphur.
When the first resolution was read Sen
ator Wooten, Of Montgomery county, Of
fered an amendment to it as follows:
Recognizing in Grover Cleveland the wise
and experienced statesman, the unf1inching
and courageous champion of the peoples
causes; the fearless enemy of tariff oppres-
sion and dishonest money, and the valiant
party leader, We recommend his nOmina.
tion at the Democratic National Convention
as our candidate for President.
After considerable discussion, in the
course of which there was free cheering at
the mention of Cleveland and German, the
amendment was rejected by vote Of 2S to
81.
The remaining resolutions caused no dis
cussion and were adopted unanimously.
Judge Perry L. Wickes and John Walter
Smith were chosen electors at large.

1t Recommends His Nomination, but Does
Not Instruct.
BANGOR, June 8.-The Democratic State
Convention was called to order at noon.
William H. Clifford, of Portland, was
chosen Temporary Chairman, and made a
speech mainly devoted to tariff. The Com
mittee on Resolutions made its report, hav-
ing materially changed the platform as out
lined by a subcommittee. Where the lat
ter had adopted a plank instructing the
delegates to Chicago to vote for Cleveland
the former had substituted one declaring
that this convention recommends his rcnom-
inatfon. This was finally adopted after a
warm debate.
The platform further opposes the Nc
Kinley tariff law; declares for free raw ma
terial; opposes the adoption of the proposed
constitution amendment regarding the quail
fcation of electors, and calls for the resub-
mission to the people of The constitutional
prohibitory amendment.
Charles F. johnson, of Waterville, was
nominated for Governor. These district
electors were chosen: A. L. Simpson, S.
w. Could I. w. Sherman, Daniel Cotti,
with Charles H. Chase and A. w. Madigan,
of Houlton, as electors at large.

MONTGOMERY, ALA, June 8-The Dem
ocratic State Convention was called to order
to-day by Chairman Smith, who in short
speech predicted the overthrow of the men
who seek to disrupt the party. He pre-
dicted an overwhelming victory in August
and in the Alabama vote in November for
the Democratic candidate for President. At
this point some one said: "Cleveland;' and
great shout went up from all over the
hall. -.-.
Captain S. H. Dent was selected for
Temporary Chairman. The demand of the
Kolb men for seats for all their delegates
was rejected by the committee; also their
demand for reference of the contest for
Governor to a primary election to be held
June %. An adjournment was taken until
10 o'clock tomorrow in order that the
Committee on Credentials may pass on the
action of the State Executive Committee in
the matter of contested delegations.
The Kolb Alliance faction met this after
noon and organized a separate and inde-
pendent convention. Out of 466 delegates
to the regular convention, Kolb has 153 un-
contested votes. A portion of these Chow
many not vet known) united with the men
who constitute themselves delegates, and
thus formed convention. They propose to
carry on the war till the regular election in
August. The independent convention
organized by the election of John w. Jones,
who is not delegate, as Chairman. His
county is for the regular Democratic party.
Committees on Credentials and Platform
and Order of Business were appointed and
the convention adjourned until s. S.o'clock.
1t is the purpose of this convention to
nominate Kolb for Governor and put full
ticket in the field. S. NJ. Adams, President
of the State Alliance, and whose election to
the regular convention was reported favora-
bly, by the State Committee, is Kolb's lead
ing spirit. He refuses to act with the regu-

THE FURY OF A woMAN sC0RNED.
She Sues Her Lover With Whom sh'
Eloped From Poland.

She Sues Her Lover With Whom She
Eloped From Poland.
A very romantic story with sad ending
came to light in Alderman Kerr's Office yes
terday. Joseph Zumdgen and Mary Crowski
are the interested parties. They are both
young and come from Droubish Poland
Her story is to the effect that Zumdgen per-
suaded Mary to elope with him to America
on the promise of marriage. He was
wealthy and she agreed. They came to this
country and in New York Zumdgen met an
other girl to whom he made desperate love.
The girl left New York for Pittsburg and
he followed her, deserting the woman he
had promised to marry.
Mary learned of his whereabouts and fol-
lowed him. Coming to the city she was
taken sick, and but for the help OF country
men she would not have survived. Then
her love turned to hate and desire for
revenge. She made an information against
Zumdgen before Alderman Kerr. Constable
Jack arrested him at a boarding house on
Thirty-fitth street few hours later. He
gave bail in the sum of $500 tor hearing
on Friday. He refused to marry her, but
offered to pay her way back to Poland and
give her neat sum besides. He is able to
do this, as when $500 bail was demanded,
he pulled roll of 81, 200 out of his pocket
and put up the amount She refused his
offer and says he must suffer.

New YORK, June s.-[SpeciaL &c. H. Byrne
called at the Sun office last night and said
his position regarding the releasing of play
ers for the benefit of the weaker teams does
not seem to be understood. He is willing to
help the weaker teams, and will try to get
the other strong clubs to do the same. He
is sure that there is no prospect of a return
to the eight-club circuit as the present ar
rangement runs for ten years. He said he
was unaware that any League meeting
Brookly Club will release three or four men
in a few days. f. B. Talcott Yesterday ad-
mitted that the League officials had had sew
eral informal talks, and that a certain mat
ter he could not now speak of would shortly
be acted upon. Further than that Mr.. Tai
colt would say nothing.

Warmer; Probably Sho rers Friday.

The area of moderately high barometer,
the crest of which was over Southern New
England Wednesday morning, has passed
Eastward over the Atlantic. 1t has caused
the winds over the sesboard States to shift
to southerly. This will bring return Of
higher temperature, except,when cooler by
rains Showery weather has prevailed from
New York to Florida and the East Gulf;
also in the Ohio Valley. The low area that
appeared east of Washington Monday MORN
ing has moved slowly Eastward and is now
along n trough-like area over the Rocky
Mountains, central in the Western part of
the Dakotas. 1t will become q part of a
slight but extended barometric depression
that overlies the country west of the Allie
ghenies.
The indraught of southerly winds has
brought decided increase of heat over the
country between the Mississippi and the
mountains. No precipitation has resulted
from this movement, and, with the absence
of cioudiness, a heated period may be e1-
pected, followed by showery weather or
perhaps severe local storms. The weather
in the Upper Mississippi Vplley Thursday
will be much warmer and fair, probably
followed by rains Thursday night and Fri
day. The temperature in the vicinity of
Minneapolis will rise to about 500, and the
weather will be fair I'LL Thursday night or
Friday. g.
