After the reading of the call the CHAIR
man announced that owing to the lack
of organization throughout the state
the convention had been called as mass
convention, and that the credentials en-
titling delegates to seats would consist
in signing the declaration of principles,
declaring for the prohibition of the man
ufacture, import and sale of in.
toxioatirg liquors the paramount
issue before the American peo-
pie, and pledging their support
to the national prohibition party and
use their influence for an extension of
its principles This declaration all al.
lance men refused to sign. After fight
ing an hour in vain endeavor to show
what they were there for, the alliance
independent men withdrew. A com
mittee was then appointed which, after
adjournment, reported the following
delegates to the national convention:

The alliance held secret session four
hours but will divulge nothing of the
proceeding except the statement that
the business pertained to discussion OF
plans for political campaign and the
preparation for call for an independ.
emit alliance state convention.
The result of the alliance bolt from
the prohibition convention will probably
be that the third party prohibitionists
will vote for such republican candidates
for state officers as are satisfactory to
them personally.

being soalded to death while in the mill
boiler room on Saturday last. A new
blow.of pipe which had been attached
to the boiler from underneath suddenly
blew out and up through the building,

grazing Mr.. M. in its fight. Hot water
and steam poured out in great force,
badly scalding Mr.. M. about the face,
neck and limbs, before he could find his
way to the door and crawl out OF the
room. All other hands we're immedi.
ately driven out of the mill by the i'm
mense clouds of steam, the same being
so hot as to melt the machinery belts
and do other damage. MIR. Mussell only
effected his escape by crawling along the
floor upon bis hands and knees to the
door, q considerable distance. The Eeho
is pleased to say, however, that he will
be able to be out upon the streets again
in few days.
