MADISON. Wis, June 1.-THE re
publican nominations meet with much
favor here, especially among business
men. Even the democrats admit the
wisdom of the nominations. Coy. Peck
said that Harrison was strong man;
that it woull have been an insult mot
to nominate him. He thought Har
riSon would be just about is strong III
Wisconsin as Blaine, though he of
course expresses the opinion that the
democrats would have no difficulty i'll
carrying the state.
Burr W. Jones, who slipped into
then strong republican district was
split up by two republican candidates
in the iield-keyes and IiaZeltine--
thought that lit was the only thing
and the best thing for the convention
to do. {"
Atty. Gen. O'Connor said that as a
democrat he was pleased with the
nomination He thought that either
Mckinney OF Blaine would have been
stronger.
Among the republicans ex-Inited
States District Attorney III NJ. Lewis
states that it is just what he wanted;
that narriS0n'S administration has
been magnificent, and that all the con
servatiye republicans favor his nom
ination. He thinks that Mckinley
viii keep and Will grow, but that he is
at present little too much OF an eX-
tremist to make good candidate.
EN-Atty.-Gen. c. E, Estabrook has
all along been in favor OF the nom
nation Of Harrison on account OF his
administration
Charles L. Bross thinks that iIar-
rison deserved a denomination ana
will carry everything before him.
Charles Dow would rather have seen
Blaine nominated. He, however, saws
that it is characteristic of Blaine
men to stick to the nominees of the
convention.

VALUABLE JEWELRY
Recovered by Police Officers Last Night.
Two Arrests Made.

Officers Frank Darby and Mike Land
grove bagged a couple of young fellows last
night. They gave their names as Peyton
NIcGaughey and M. L. Grifith, the latter
being book agent who arrived in the city
about the 18th of February. McGaughey
(who says that is not his name) would not
talk to a reporter, so nothing could be
learned about him further than that he had
not been in the city long.
For several days the officers mentioned
have been working on the theft of a gold
watch and some valuable jewelry and a $50
gold piece, the property having been stolen
from Mrs. Baldwin, who boards at POP Bele
KNAPP street. The officers had a clew to
work upon, for the two men arrested
last night, it appears, roomed at the
same place, and when arrested
Griffith bad the rings in his possession.
which are quite costly, having diamond
settings. The money and watch are yet
missing, but the officers are confident they
have the right parties and hope to be able
to secure the watch.
They were jailed and an investigation
will be made to-day.

riage ride over the city. Mr.. Gould
refused to see newspaper correspondents,
referring all such callers to DR.. Mum.
The latter stated that Mr.. Gould had been
suffering for several weeks with a severe
cold in New York. and that fearing that
his condition would become alarming if he
remained in that climate during the severe
March weather he ordered his patient to
make a trip to a milder climate. Mr..
Gould, he says, has been already greatly
benefited by the trip. He denies that
there is any business OF significance
connected with his visit here,
but it is believed that Mr..
Gould has his eye on the San Antonio and
Arkansas Pass road, which would prove
valuable feeder to mis- present Missouri Pa
ciic system. 1t is given out by Arkansas
Pass officials that he will probably make
trip over the road upon his return from
Mexico.

Officers brought to police headquarters
last night a man named B. G. Eastin, a
travelling salesman, who IL is supposed is
guilty of knowing something about the dis
appearance of a pistol, gold watch and
$40 in cash, the property of E. l. Skaif a
travelling salesman from Garnett, Kan.
With Eastin were also brought up the bar
keeper at Andrews, pavilion theater and
three or four male attaches or habitues OF
this resort, either as participants in the af-
fair or because it was thought they knew
more than they would acknowledge
1t seems the men had been having q gem
eral good time in quiet way in the saloon
for several hours during the afternoon, and
beer flowed freely. Skaif wore fine
gold watch, good pistol and his money
would buy drinks in any mans country,
and he was pretty free with it. As things
began to warm up Mr.. Skaif had occasion
to lay his coat back on his arms, partially
of, and displayed the things that are now
missing, and at the instance Of the loser
the entire party was run into police head
quarters for investigation.
