COLUMBUS, O., June 15.-The demo-
cratic state convention convened at $50
this morning. The heat is extreme and
notwithstanding the limited capacity Of
the house, the indications are that its
seating capacity will not be taken. In
point OF numbers it is one of the smallest
state conventions of either party which
has assembled in Ohio for many years.
An effort will 1e made to dispose OF
business at one continuous session in
stead of adjourning over to afternoon.
The delegates feel that the limited busi-
ness can be disposed of in brief time
after the disposition of Foundations.
The single session will depend upon
the progress made by the several com
mittees appointed yesterday. The COM
| mittee on resolutions held Il protracted
session last night, lasting until carly
up platform was delegated to a
subcommittee of five. This committee
continued its session this morning with
out reaching agreement. The hitch is
on the silver plank. Gen. Finley and
other silver democrats insist on the free
silver plank of last year, but there is al
effort being made TO straddle the ques
ton. tariff reform plank has been
adopted and sumptuary legislation dc
I ounced.
NooN-On calling the convention to or
def Chairman Jas. A. Norton OF th,
state central committee referred to The
important work of the convention which
was the selection of delegates to Chicago
and which, he said, should be done will
the greatest fairness. His mention o
Cleveland was received with much en-
thusiasm, which grew as he reached th'
names of Hill, Whitney, German ant
Others on the list. When the speaker
reached the name Of Gov. Campbell th'
convention assumed wild scene OF dem
onstraitOn, The applause continued to-
several minutes, giving strong evidence
that the cX governor had big follow
ing.in the conYcntion.
Hon. las. L. Neal, chairman OF the con
vention, came from sick room to pre-
side and was received with much favor
He was frequently applaudcd in his ut
teranccS. Permancn: committees Wtr
announced on the call OF districts, and a
10:t0 the convention took recess OF q
minutes to give the committees oppol
tunity to prepare reports.

No Alliance Necessary

ST. PAUL, June 15.-lt has been def
nitely announced by Marshall Camp
bell, chairman of the Minnesota demo-
cratic central committee, that there would
be no fusion between the democrats and

EXCOMMUNICATED.
A Lot of Polish Catholics Scored
by Their bishop.

CLEVELAND. o., June 15.-Bishop
Horstman last evening took a step
which will probably stop the turbulence
in the Polish parish of st. Staneslaus
caused by recent change in priests. He
appeared i'll the church at Vesper service
and in short address communicated
those who had participated in Tho
attacks upon Father Rosinski unit
they shall publicly rcpented of thei,
sins. He scored the turbulent Poles un
mercifully and they appear now to b.
thoroughly cowed.

NINETY WEARS OLD,
a woman of That Age EriCS to
Kill Herself,

CANTON, N. c., June 15.-[Spccial. An
attempt at suicide was made near here, in
Haywood county, yesterday by Mrs.
Betsy Chambers. She cut her throat
with razor. She made three gashes,
but owing to lack of strength failed to
sever the jugular vein although it was
exposed. The doctors say she will die
of nervous prostration if the wound
does not kill her. The most remarkable
part of the affair is the woman's age,
being near ninety years old. She gives
no reason for the attempt except that
she could not rest nights and did not feel

TO COMMIT SUICIDE? 1?

The train which leaves the Asheville
depot at 3;05 was rounding the bend
Yesterday when a man rushed to the
platform and jumped off. His rash
act created great excitement among
the other passengers-they all thought it
was case of suicide. Ladies tainted,
men rushed to the platform expecting to
sec his mangled form upon the track,
but the fact was he had forgotten to put
his bottle of "Buncombe Pills" in his
satchel and would not start on his jour
ncy without them He took great chances,
but he might have taken greater.
