KANSAS REPUBLICAN CONVENTIONS

TOPEKA, Kan, March 2-The state con
Vention TO nominate a candidate for con
gressman-at-large and to elect four dele
gates to the national convention at Mime
apolrs meets in Hutchinson on May ,. The
Republican convention to nominate "A state
ticket will be held in this city on June 30.
The representation to both conventions
will be based upon the vote cast for super
intendent of public instruction at the cleo
tion in 1890 The basis of representation
will be one delegate for each 200 votes or
major fraction thereof, which gives the
conventions III delegates each.
The main fight in the central committee
meeting last night was over the election
upon which the representation should be
based. The western committeeman
wanted the election of 1888 fixed as the
basis for determining the delegations,
claiming that the vote of 1890 did not
properly show the distribution of the Re-
publican strength There was also fight
over the proposition to have the conven-
tion to elect delegates to Minneapolis
nominate the candidate for congressman
at-large. This convention having been
called for May 5, will precipitate the fight
for Dgressman-at-large at once. Those
who were opposed to making an early
nomination claimed that the national
sicket should first be placed in the field
and the platform upon which the congress
man-at-l8rge was TO run should first be
known.
a new candidate for congressman-at-
large is in the field. Edward Z. Greer of
Winfield this morning authorized the an
nouncement Of his candidacy The an
nouncement of Major MOrrilps candidacy
for governor has resulted in he withdraw
nj of John NJ. Price of Atchison from the
gubeFnatorial contest. Mr.. Price Will
make the race for state senator instead.
The grand climax OF Senator Ingalls,
address last night was his recital of the
manner in which the Republican leaders
bad ignored him in the campaign of 1870
and the final humiliation to which he was
subjected when his colleague, the late
Senator Plumb, died. No place was re
served for him in the funeral procession,
nor was he invited TO make the briefest
address. The grand climax had n wonder
ful effect, aud Senator Ingalls, is today
more popular in Kansas than at any time
during his political career.

RHODE ISLAND DEMocRATs.'

PROVIDENCE. r. l., March 2-The Demo-
Gratis Of Rhode Island met in this city
this morning for the nomination of state
officers for the election occurring in April,
and also for the selertion of delegates TO
the national convention. The outcome of
the town and city caucuses promised a
warm fight between the two factions-one
favorng the choice OF a delegation for Mr..
Cleveland, and the other prefering the
selection of delegation to go unpledged.
A resolution presented by Samuel Honey
and referred to the platform committed
instructing the delegates to the national
convention to vote for Mr. Cleveland, was
received with great enthusiasm.
The platform reported demands free raw
materials: approves the Springer free wool
bill and urges its early passage. and favors
placing iron, coal and timber ou the free
list. Upon the coinage question it reads:
Every dollar of-American money whether
gold, silver or paper, ought to be of equal
value the world over" The repeal of the
Sherman coinage act is favored because of
its failure to accomplish the results de-
sired, and, for a like reason, the free coin
age of silver is opposed, except upon an
international agreement
Ex-Lieutenapt Governor Wardell was
nominated for governor, defeating David
L. Baker, who was placed in nomination
by Mr.. Honey, accredited TO the Cleveland
party. For lieutenant governor Charles
+. Gorman of Providence was nominated
The Wardeil men placed Charles Acton
Ives of Newport in counter nomination
Ives was repudiated by the Newport dele
CATION, which intimated that Newport
had been traded for senator Aldrich. The
vote was: German, 100: Ives. 80
The ticket was completed as follows:
Secretary of state, john j. Hoffman: at
torney general, Zeiha O. Slocum; general
treasurer, Thomas q. Spencer The plat
form was adopted as presented by the
committee, and a resolution instructing
the delegates for Cleveland went through

RIVERS AND HARBORS.

WASHINGTON, March 2-The river and
harbor appropriation bill is beginning to
take definite shape, considerable progress
having been made by the house committee
in its preparation. The consideration of the
bill has gone far enough to show that the
total appropriation will be considerably
larger than seems to have been anticipat-
ed. While the members of the majority of
the committee were in accord with the
policy of the house in keeping down ex-
penditures, the southern members do not
believe that the river and harbor bill
should be cut to very much greater ex-
