A GIRLS SIN.
Her Attempted suicide-Is II One of
Bogy's ain Office" Cases?

NEW YORK, May 2S.-Aliss Kate R. Pike, the
treasury department typewriter of Washing
ton, d. c., who was found unconscious in her
room in the Astor house on Saturday last with
the gas turned on aud tive cuts in her left wrist,
was taken from Bellevue hospital to the Tombs
police court today and arraigned on the charge
OF attempting suicide. She was released as
having been demented when she made at
tempts on on her life. The basis of this con-
clusion Is a pitiful letter to her mother written
before she cut her wrists aud turned on the gas.
The letter opens the girls secret and disoloses
relations with one she referred to as Jimmy"
who one time had wanted her to marry him
but who after yielding to him told her "such
an idea was absurd"

TRENTON, n. j.. May 25.-The democratic
state convention elected as delegates to Chi
cago: Senator John K. Mcpherson, Governor
Albeit, James Smith. jr.. OF Essex. and Miles
Ross of Middlesex.
The platform adopted reafirms the prinoi-
pies laid down in he national democratic
platforms of 1854 and 1855; declares
tina. the party should continue its battles
for tariff reform until that reform is
embodied in the statutes OF the United States:
denounces the Mckinley bill; asserts that the
republican party today puts Its strongest claims
for its continuance IN power upon acts under
the name of reciprocity which have been
neither more nor less than feeble steps in the
direction of tarid reform. as adyerted 10 in the
message of President Cleveland: that during
the administration of President Cleveland
the affairs OF the national government were
conducted upon lines OF honesty aud
economy. resulting in the accumulation of a
large surplus in the national treasury, while
du1ng the present administration there has
been q system of reckless extrAvaRance inau0-
urated IN every department. The surplus has
been wasted and It's distribution has been At
tended by jobbery and scandal. The delegates
from New jersey TO the national convention at
Chicago are instructed TO vote for Grover
Cleveland as candidate for president as
long IS his name is before the convention.
The policy OF free coinage, of deprecated
legal tender silver and further purchases of
silver bullion 10 condemned and the platform
believes that the whole matter OF the usA of
silver as a money metal should be relocated 20
the future combined action OF the numerical
nations. The platform indorses Governor
Abbetfs administration and approves his
action in vetoing the bill providing for the
legalxation Of the leases between railroad cor
porations

SENATOR eoaMAN's MISTAKE.
His Appearance In the Role OF n Billion
Dollar Democrat.
IN Y World

Senator Gorman's defense of billion
dollar appropriations is not what the dem
ocratic party had a right to expect from
one of its leaders in congress.
His argument was not sound.
Because the expenditures OF the gov
eminent increased under the stimulus of
a surplus is no reason why they should
go on increasing in the face of an ad-
mitted deficiency.
The population of the country just
doubled between 1860 and 1890. The ex-
penditures of the government have in
creased since 1860 more than sevenfold-
from sec, 900 to S500,000,000.
Mr. German does not defend this
startling disparity. He even calls some
features of the extravaganza outrage
GUS" But he sees no way to stop it.
The people demanded that it be stopped
whom they turned out the billion. dollar
congress in 1890. The democrats prom
ised to stop it. Does Senator German
wish the country to understand that the
democracy is dishonest or simply impo-
tent!
We confess to surprise in finding that
Senator German is billion-dollar demo-
Crat-

AT HIS OWN LYNCHING.
The Unusual Proceeding in Which a
Murderer Helps Hang Himself

BAsTRoP La. May 2L-An extraordinary
murder and lynohing occurred here yesterday.
One man committed the murder and one man
did the lynohing with the assistance of the
murderer.
Schambiss Brigham, manager for Col.
George @. PHILIPPE, who owns a plantation OH
DesirRd, W lille in the field was shot dead from
ambush by an old negro. The negro then
walked TO the plantation residence, summoned
Col. Phillips and told him that he had killed
Brigham and wanted to be hanged for it. Col.
Phillips put rope around the negro's neck
and the negro was soon swinging in death
struggle from the limbs of tree. No motive
is assigned for the murder, and 1t is thought
that the negro was insane.

To THE EDIToR-Sir: Both in the Wash.
ington Posts interview with Senator Voor-
hees and the Indianapolis Neics' inter-
view with Secretary of State Matthews,
there are limitations that NAV well cause
feeling of uneasiness among the masses
of the democracy OF Indiana. The writer
feels assured THE SENTINEL does not over
estimate it when it says that 80 per
cent. Of the democracy OF Indiana
favor the denomination of Cleveland
at Chicago. He feels equally sure that
there has been no change OF any moment
in that sentiment since the meeting
of the state convention, notwith-
standing the fact that Mr.. Matthews says
there has been such change. and of
this fact Mr.. Matthews will become con-
WINGED when he begins his canvass of the
various counties. There may indeed be
such a change among the mere camp fol-
lowers of the party, who would have .
much better show for place, and its emolu-
ments under any one else than Cleve-
land, and whose wish is father
TO the thought. Barring this element
The masses are just as loyal to their great
leader today as they ever were and there J
will be deep and abiding indignation in
their breasts if by reason of any jugglery (
or chicane be is cheated OF the just fruits
of the desire and purposes of the majority. J
This 80 per cent. will watch with jealous
eve the course of Indiana's delegates at
Chicago. The question of the "expedi-
opcvb or Clavalaod 'c nomination ruuaf bo
determined by vote in open convention
and not by secret consultation with the
opposition. The 80 per cent will also ext
pect their delegates TO accord MIR. Cleve-t
land a loyal support as long as there Is -
probability of his nomination. When lb1
appears that he cannot be nominated then
and not till then will it permit the delegate
vote of Indiana to be given TO another.
The 80 per cent. conceded much TO the
10 per cent. in order that harmony within
the party might be preserved, but il Will
not submit to have its fixed purpose
thwarted and the nomination given to
other than the leader OF its choice, until q
fair. open and energetic effort has been
made in his behalf. It is believed by
many OF the majority, that had the state
convention adopted a resoiution pledg;ng
an unqualified support to its logical"
candidate for the presidency, instead
of the "expediency" resolution, the
other states would have followed
with similar ones and Clevelsnd's nomina-
ton would have been assured. In the In
terest of harmony" however. the dele
gates representing the 80 per cent. per.
mitted the adoption OF the "expediency"
resolution and the result has been the
creation of a field" against Cleveland,
which may cause the great leader to with
draw his name from the canvass before the
convention meets, or prevent the cOnsum-
nation of the wishes of the great majority
of the democratic majority after the con-
vention assemblies, thus necessitating the
choice of a weaker man and the defeat Of
the democratic party. JOHN q. Dixon.

LOOKS BAD FOR HARRISON.
The Opposition Lenders Gathering ut New
York.

The Opposition Lenders Gathering at New
York.
NEW YORK, May 25.-Poltical leaders in
this and other states are beginning to flock to
this city. Senator Hiseook arrived here from
Washington this afternoon. Senator Petit
grew of South Dakota registered at the
Fifth.ave. hotel this evening. Awaiting him
was ex-senator Plat. who at once took Senator
Pettigrew aside and for some minutes
held an earnest conversation with him.
Senator Petdgrew was seen later.
lie at first declared that, being
a delegate from a state which had been in
structed for Harrison, he did not feel like ex-
pressing an opinion on the situation. On
being questioned. the following was elicited
ut is true that South Dakota has instructed
for Harrison. but it is equally true that
this was done with the understanding
that Blaine was not candidate.
South Dakota iB unquestionably
Blaine state. IL has declared for Blaine at
every convention since il became a state, until
this year. Every man, woman or child is for
Blaine. He could poll more votes in the north
vest than any other candidate that could be
nominated.
'He is the only republican whom have in
my mind who could carry Montana and its
three electoral votes will be very necessary if
New York should 60 democratic"
Gould Harrison carry Montana"
Garry Montana? He could not carry one
corner of it."
in the event of Blaine's acceptance would
the South Dakota delegates consider them
selves released from their instruciions?"
That is question that is hardly fair to ask !"
he replied. 81 hardly think the republicans of
South Dakota could hold them clearly to &C
count in such a contingency"
When Senator Hiscook was seen he declared
that he was still for Harrison.
Il have just come from Washington" he
said, "and | see nothing TO change my opinion
that President Harrison will bs renominated,
and have yet TO hear OF any authoritative
statement that Blaine is a candidate"
Senator Hisoock admitted that in the event
OF Blaine's candidacy the situation might be
changed, but only that would interfere with
Harrison's nomination
