Being Held.
ORLANDO, FLA, June I4-This morn
ing the preliminary trial of the train rob-
bers Floyd and Futoh. and of tho men
charged as being accessories, Stafford and
MoNamara, attracted a very large audience
to the court room In the hall Of the armory
building, were County Judge J. Letcher
Bryan presided. Hon. w. L. Palmer
represented the state. For w. II. Stafford
w. r. Ammo OF this city and Ii. A. Peoples
OF Tampa appeared. Ii. q. Garret tt defended

and Futoh waived the preliminary examn-
alton. The court thereupon adjourned to 2
O'Clock.
Col. w. r Ammo, on behalf of Stafford,
waived examination, but said that later on
he would make motion in the case.
M'NAMAHA's CASE CALLED.
The case Of Edward L. NcNamara was
next called. He is about 25 years old, OF
light complexion, has brown hair and a light
brown musJache He has restless gray
eyes and a quick nervous manner, and an
ever ready smIrk. Mr.. Palmer read the
warrant against McNamara, who stood to
hear it, and pleaded mot Guilty"
The evidence Of M. l. Coke, the special
express officer, of Engineer Dumas, and Of
covered the facts as reported in the MORN
ING NEWS heretofore.
THE AIM OF THE STATE
The effort OF the states attorney was
directed to giving presumptive evidence
why McNamara alias Lawrence should be
held to the grand jury. Ed Lawrence, or
McNamara, on the other hand, had a num-
Der of witnesses TO prove an alibt 1t app
pears that McNamara had engaged as novel
reader in cigar factory In Plant
City. There he had become acquainted
with a number Of young men, some
Of whom appeared to testify as
to his Whereabouts on the day
OF the eventful train robbery Saturday.
Messrs. Odlin and Garrett made a strong
appeal in the prisoners behalf, but the
chain OF evidence was too strong for the
court and Judge Bryan decided. after hear
ing evidence all the afternoon, to hold
Mcnamara for the grand jury. Mr..
Palmsr's arguments for the state were very
able ones and the result Is viewed with
satisfaction.

OHIO'S DEMOCRATS.

This State Convention Meets at Column
bus To-day.
COLUMBUS, O., June 14.-The democratic
state convention to nominate a state ticket
and to select four delegates at large to the
Chicago convention will convene at $50
O'Clock tomorrow morning with James E.
Neal of Hamilton as chairman. Nearly all
the delegates arrived to-day and district
meetings were held this afternoon.
Various convention committees were
selected, including the state central COM
mittee, and six of the districts which had
not already done SO. selected delegates to
Chicago. Ofthese are pronounced Cleve-
land men, 2 are anti-Cleveland and the
others are for the strongest man for the
party at Chicago. The state ticket is lost
sight Of in the contest for delegates at large.
TWO OF THE WINNERS.
1t is conceded that Senator Brice and
ex-Gov. Campbell will be selected without
opposition, and there is considerable
string of candidates for the other places.
The most probable to succsed are Robert
B. Lee of Cleveland, Allen w. Thurman of
Columbus, or L. L. Neal of Chillicothe.
There is a strong fight being made and the
lines are being drawn on the candidacy Of
Mr.. Cleveland. Allen W. Thurman is
pronounced in this regard and his success
WILL De recognized as a CleVelnnd victory.
THE OPPOSITION LIVELY.
The opposition, however, is we'll organ
lied and have won about every contest in
the caucus to-day. The most prominent
victory Of this kind was in the Eighteenth
district, where Congressman Warwick made
a stand for the Hill delegates, and In the
face Of instructed delegations secured the
selection Of his delegates by one vote. The
best judges analYzs the delegation to stand
ten or twelve for Cleveland, about the same
number are ranked for Hill and the
balance of the forty-six are unpledged but
have a strong feeling for Mr.. Cleveland,
though they will do the best for the party at
Chicago. There is some talk of John r.
McLsan's name being presented for dele
gate at large, and if it should be, he will
likely be selected. Senator Brice arrived
during the afternoon, but is not personally
exerting himself in any ones behalf.

A SHIP BLOWN TO ATOMS.
FIFTEEN OTHER CREW KILLED BY
The EXPLOSION.


The Steamer Laden With Petroleum
aud Lying in the Harbor of Blaye
When Struck by Lishtning-Smsll
Boats Make Efforts TO Rescue the
Drowning.
BORDEAUX, June 14.-An appalling acoi-
dent occurred to-day just outside the harbor
of Blaye. on the river Gironde, twenty-four
miles northeast Of this city. Lying off the
harbor was the British steamer Petrolia,
commanded by Capt. lubbock, which had
arrived June 10 from Philadelphia. The
usual routine work was being performed on
board, when suddenly there was flash. a
tremendous roar, aud the vessel was blown
to pieces. Huge fragments Of the deck
and deck houses were carried up-
ward to a great hight The shock Of
the explosion alarmed the town and
hundreds of persons rushed TO the wharves
TO discover the cause Of the noise, it being
thought by many that the magazine of one
Of the forts defending Blays had blown up.
The river was strSwn With wreckage from
the Petrolia and It was said that the disas-
ter was due 70 an explosion Of gas that had
formed from the petroleum comprising her
cargo. Burning oil was floating on the
water. This drifted with the tide and
floating against several vessels lying at
anchor near by setting them on fire. Two
or three other vessels wers ignited by burn
ing oil that foil on their decks OF tarred rig
ging.
FURIOUS FLAMES.
The Petrolia was burning furiously and
the heat was so intense that 1t was danger
GUS for the many small boats that were
launched to approach near her. Dense
volumes Of sitting black smoke hung over
and around the burning steamer. Some Of
the more venturesoms of the boatmen
heard cries for hep and rowed as closely as
possible to the Petrolia They succeeded in
picking up sixteen Of her crew. three OF her
engineers aud the second officer. Some OF
the rescued men werO severely burned &.
They were taken ashore as rapidly as pos
sihls and physicians summoned TO attend
them. The survivors said that there were
twenty others on board the vessel when the
explosion occurred, and a search was made
In the vicinity Of the steamer for them, but
not body was found, and it is believe
that every one Of these twenty men perished
Tbs crews OF the other vessels that caught
but their efforts were fruitless, and some Of
the craft, mostly vessels engaged in the
river and coasting trade, were burned to the
waters edge.
Fifteen members OF the crew OF the Pes
trolla were killed by the explosion and fire.
A thunder storm was raging at the time Of
tho accident, and the general opinion is
that ths vessel was struck by lightning.

BALTIMORE. Nd, June 14.-The big
warehouse Of the Bay Line steamers at the
foot Of the union dock took fire this after
noon from an unknown cause, and within
five minutes was a roaring mass OF flames.
Stored inside the warehouse, which is sew
eral hundred feet long, were between 500
and 1000 tales of Gotten, several ship
loads OF rosin in barrels and a
great number of hogsheads Of mo-
losses. The infsmmable nature OF
the contents of the warehouse had caused a
great blaze to spread with hghtning-like
rapidity. Fire plugs were scarce and the
engines had 60 hunt for openings in the

warehouse, together with that of the
weather, were terrible on the hremeu and
several dropped at the hose pipes. The loss
will be fully $500.o00.
THE DOCK A MONSTER,
The dock is one of the largest of its kind
in the city, and is located at the foct Of
Concord street and Is In one of the orst
localities in t. city for fire to break out.
Around the dock are extensive lumber yards
and dozens Of coastiug schooners. The dock
is used largely by the Bay Line Company,
who own the steamers Carolina, Virginia
and Georgia. and several freight steamers.
The depth of water at the dock admits OF
the landing OF the largest vessels, and many
were in at the time the fire started.
ORIGIN OF THE FIRE.
The fire Is thought to have originated
from spontaneous combustion among tue
cotton. None of the vessels lying at the
docks were totally destroyed because tugs
drew them into the stream, where the fire
boat Cataract AMI streams from tho tugs
saved them from total loss, but several fine
vessels were badly damaged. Among
these were the steamers Carolina

BEN DOOMED TO DEFEAT.
THE TICKET ADMITTED TO BE A
WEAK ONE.

Reid's Name Apt to Prove a Draw
back in New York-The Slight Put
Upon Morton Keenly Felt by Some OF
the Returning Senators-Cleyeland
Sure to Beat the Republican Ticket.
WASHINGTON. June 1.-THE returning
pilgrims from Minneapolis were warmly
greeted by their associates In the Senate
and House to-day, and many long and
earnest talks took place after the early adj
journment of the two houses. 1t Is evident
that the senatorial junta which fought SO
hard to beat the President is not entirely
reconcled to the situation. Prominent
western senator's say that Mr.. Blaine was
the favorite in their states, and that PresI-
dent Harrison cannot get anything like the
vote that would have been given to the
magnetic man from Maine. The senators
are not anxious to be quoted by name, for
most Of them have already done more talk
ing than is good for them, but they
are very willing to express their opinion
without being quoted, and they seem very
dubious about carrying the ticket of Har-
Tison and Reid.
THE SLIGHT ON MORTON.
Some of them hung their heads with
shame before the frank, sad face of Vice
President Morton, whom they all admit has
been most shabbily treated. The only ex-
cuse they offer is that the nomination was
left to the New York delegation, and that
delegation unanimously presented the name
OF MIR. Reid. They say there was no more
reason for casting Mr.. Morton aside than
for defeating the President. They do not
think Mr.. Reid's name will help much in
New York and they have the private assur-
RANGES Of Platt Fasset, Belden and Quay

SILVER SENATORS DIsGUsTED.
The silver senators especially do not con-
oeal their disgust over the Minneapolis
nomination, and the more radical of them
are not satisfied with the platform. Senator
Teller tried to have the silver plank framed
so as TO commit the party to having the
ratio between gold and silver fixed By the
legislative department of the government,
thereby excluding the President from any
share IN the matter by his veto and COM
pelling Mr.. Harrison TO accept this platform

BREAKS IN THE LEvEEs.

The Situation in Louisiana Not
Changed Materially.
NEW ORLEANS. La. June 1.-THE lndi-
cations are that the break in the levee at the
Avondale plantation, twelve miles above
this city, will be closed in day or two.
The water from this break has already in-
terrupted business on both the Texas and
Southern Pacific railroad
All hope Of closing the Belmont crevasse,
which is forty-eight miles above New Or
leans, has been abandoned. This levee was
II feet high and the break is now more than
200 feet wide and 10 feet deep, and is cut
ting out rapidly.
The crevasse at Sarapy's, thirty miles
above the city, is now 300 feet wide and 10
feet deep. The water from these two breaks
has already inundated the Mississippi Valley
railroad and will soon cover all the planta-
tlons along the river front.
The Illinois Central railroad will also lose
heavily by the last mentioned crevasse.
In the Belmont break the force OF the
water was so great that it carried the Mis-
slssippi Valley track against the Postal
Telegraph and Southern Bell Telephone
companies poles, carrying them away for
a distance of more than q mile.
