committee comprises forty-eight mem

representing the District of Columbia,
Immediately after Chairman Brice called
the committee to order, delivered an ad.
dress of welcome. This was briefly re-
sponded to by Mr. Brice, after which
the committee went into executive SEES
sion. AT this session it is understood
the question as to who shall represent
Pennsylvania on the committee was
taken up. State Secretary Harrity is
here to urge his claim to the seat by
virtue of his selection by the full state
committee, and he will doubtless be
seated.
At o'clock the committee adjourned
to partake of luncheon provided by
the local Democratic reception com
mittee. 1t will reassemble at o'clock.
Until that hour no business of a public
character will be transacted. 1t is prob
able then, when the committee has Sc
lected the day for holding the national
convention, that the claims of the vari-
GUS cities will be presented. All is
hustle at all the headquarters. No city
has relaxed its claim; but Cincinnati,
Milwaukee and New York, in the order
named, seem to be leading in the race.

RUssIA's FAMINE HORRORS.

Growing in Severity.

ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 21.-The state
ments which have been sent out to the
newspapers that the Russian govern
ment intends to raise the prohibition on
the exports of wheat early in April are
totally unfounded.
According to thoroughly reliable re-
ports Of the official intentions, there is
not the slightest chance of the embargo
being raised. On the contrary, the
crop prospects are, at the best, so indif-
ferent that it is far more likely that ex-
port will be stopped until 1893. There
is not nearly enough grain in the coun-
try to feed the perishing people in the
famine stricken and fever ridden dis
tricts.
In the government of Orenboorg the
male inhabitants Of Cheliabinsk are
leaving by hundreds to avoid seeing
their families starve to death. The un-
buried carcasses of horses and cattle lie
in every direction, together with human
bodies. The only food left is dry mixed
herbs. A traveller from that locality
says that hardly anybody appeared to
have partaken of food for three days
before his visit, and that all are expect
ing death. The whole village took the
last sacrament together.

The Telegraph Was Responsible.

MONTREAL, Jan. 21.-The court of APP.
peals has given its opinion of the con.
tract which telegraph companies print
on the blanks which they furnish. The
case was that of Laurence VS.. the Great
Northwestern company. While Mr.
Lionel Laurence was in New York one
of his employers sent him dispatch,
saying, Writing you tonight. The
sentence was made to read, waiting
you tonight" Mr.. Laurence made an
unnecessary trip to Montreal in conse-
quence, and sued the company. The
court awarded him the cost of the trip.
The company appealed, and the decision
of the lower court is sustained. The
company's plea that it was not RESPONSE
BILE for unrepaated messages was de-
clared illegal.
