ranks of the lI men by announcing that he was for
Grover Cleveland for President This young man,
who was forced into the senate by the power Of an
Illegally constituted majority, has surprised the men
who caused him to be seated In many ways. He has
opposed the most precious OF Edward Murphy s
schemes but they never thought that he would com
nit what the Hill people believe to be an act OF high
treason by declaring for Grover Cleveland Senator
Walker to-day gave ont long interview, in which he
stated his reasons for supporting the exPrcsdent His
main reason was that Hill is nothing moro than a
ward politician a good man TO run primaries, but
worthy OF no higher place in the Democratic party.

FLOYD TAKEN TO SANFORD.
Much Sympathy Felt for Him by the
People OF Gainesville.

Much Sympathy Felt for Him by the
People OF Gainesville.
GAINEsvILLE, FLA, June 1.-The pris-
oner Bob Floyd was taken to Sanford Mon
day evening. Supt. Myers of the
express company and Sheriffs Shelly of
Putnam, Anderson OF Orange and Kurtz Of
Volusia county came up in the morning
and becoming satisfied that Floyd was the
man wanted, and MIR. Myers saying he
would send the reward up In q few days,
they departed. Some of the parties inter-
ested in the reward 5000 in aln did not
want the sheriff of Alachua to turn him
over but to hold him until the cash was
paid, but Sheriff Fennel said he would
take the word of Mr.. Myers. 1t seems
folly to talk about defeating the ends of
justice by holding a prisoner until re-
ward is paid. The alternative must be a
suit at law against the parties offering such
reward
Sheriff Kurtz upon hearing of the shoot
ing Of the man at Jasper or Jennings, went
there and met the other men here as stated
Yesterday. He can give no correct or even
connected story of the shooting. Some say
the man was an escaped convict, but no
proof whatever is made OF that fact. It's
not even claimed that the coat riddled with
so many bullets was a convicts coat, and all
that bridge jumping and running by dogs
seems 10 nave Deen only In Lne mlnd OF the
excited correspondent. Bob Floyd, the
simon pure, said he never heard the bark
of dog from the time he left the engine at
Monroe station until he arrived at Benne-
fields
FLoYD's LETTERS.
The wires made mistake, think, In the
address OF the letter OF Floyd TO his brother.
1t was R. I. Railey, Geary Calhoun county.
He wrote a very pathetic letter to his
sisters and brother while in jail
Sunday, in which he denied shedding blood
or ever shooting at any one, and every one
here seems to think he claimed to have
killed two men merely 10 be sure Of getting
the money he wished. Much sympathy and
kindly feeling is felt for him by this COM
munity, and if it were to fix his punishment
it would be imprisonment for life. probably
for ten years. The older scoundrels took
advantage Of his impeounious condition.
Futch and Hayman were particular to keep
the money, only paying Floyd's andiKiug's
fare and feeding them.

OFF FOR MINNEAPOLIS.
The ADVANCE GUARD ALREADY
ON THE GROUND.

Headquarters Opened by the Harri-
son Men-The Blaine Men Surprised
by the Haste of the Presidents Fol
lowers-Work in Congress to Be
Almost at a Standstin.
MINNEAPOLIS, June 1.-The advance
guard Of the convention hustlers have been
arriving for some days and to-day the first Of
the actual workers came in on the afternoon
train. This afternoon the Harrison par
lors were opened at the West hotel. The
present headquarters are but temporary.
Permanent headquarters will be opened
later in the week. Those who arrived this
evening were all Harrison men. All come
from Indiana.
The early opening Of the Harrison head
quarters is q surprise to the Blaine men,
who expected to be first when they come in
with the national committee tomorrow.
In short, the Presidents friends have stolen
a march on the Blaine boomers, and their
sudden arrival means fight from start to
finish Gen. Michener and John G. New
Will be in command. Bruce Carr and Gen.
Dudley can't come. The chief speaker of
the party this afternoon was Mr. Sheel of
indianapolis. Said he: ut iscertainly in
very bad taste for Senator Quay, who forced
Delamater upon the republicans of
Pennsylvania for governor and was de-
feated; for ex-senator Platt, who forced
Mr.. Fassett upon New York and was de-
feated, and for ex-Gov. Foraker, whose
disastrous campaign in Ohio Is well remem-
bered by the Republican party-it is GER
tainly in very bad taste for these men to
dictate at this time to their party who the
presidential nominee shall be. Their
judgments are not backed by their records
This was in answer to a query: "Wbat do
you think of the Harrison oppositionl"
Continuing, he said: The Blaine senti-
ment in this country is by no means as
strong as people have been lead to believe.
1t can be more properly called an anti
Harrison sentiment. We from Indiana are
here to fight long and hard aud to win the
fight, to-"
TO BE DULL WEEK IN CONGRESS.
WASHINGTON, June From present in-
dications there is likely to be practical
suspension OF public business in congress
next week owing to the number of absentees.
Many republican senator's have already
departed, or have arranged to depart from
this city for Minneapolis. Senator Stock
bridge to-day carried away as guests in his
private car Senators Quay, FELTON, and
Gallnger and Representative Burrows, and
Senator Cullom started for the convention
later in the afternoon. Senators Hisoock
and Mcmillan intend to go west tonight.
and tomorrow Senators Teller, Wolcott,
Dubois, Shoup and Higgins will follow.
Senators Davis and Pettigrew will wait
until the end of the week before they begin
the pilgrimage, when they may be in com
pany with ex-Speaker Reed who is bound to
be in the convention "if Lord spares me, as
he says.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-The interest in
the fast approaching national conventions
and speculation as to the candidates which
the two great parties will present for the
suffrages of the people has very dampen-
ing effect upon the business of the House
The attendance this morning was small, the
attention listless and a few private bills
were passed without opposition. Tue census
Investigating COMMITTEES obtained leave to
sit during the sessions of the House.
Mr.. Oates of Alabama submitted the re-
port of the committee on the judiciary in
the case of Judge Boarman of Louisiana,
and it was ordered printed and laid on the
table.
Mr.. Whiting Of Michigan, from the oom-
mittee on ways and means, reported a bill
limiting the amount Of wearing apparel
and personal effects that may be admitted
free Of duty. 1t was put on the calendar.
The House then W ent into committee OF
the whole, with Mr.. Buchanan of Virginia
in the chair, on the postotice appropriation
bill.

The pending question was on the motion
of Mr.. Caldwell of Ohio, increasing by
5000 900 the appropriation for the free de-
livery service. 1t was lost by vote Of "A

A stranger desiring an insight into the
peculiar rules which govern the House
in its deliberations might have been in
terested in the proceedings of that body to-
day; but few others would have vie we'd
them with much pleasure. Almost the whole
day was consumed in discussions of points
Of order. No material change was made in
the postofice appropriation bill, and but
one page Of the measure was disposed Of
Mr.. Lanham Of Texas, on behalf Of Mr..
Grain OF Texas, who was absent offered an
amendment providing that the appropria-
tion for free delivery shall be disbursed in
such a manner that no additional free deliv-
cry offices shall bs established in eny con-
gressional district in which there may
be established one or more free
delivery offices, nor shall free delivery
facilities be increas cd in said offices until each
congressional district in which there may
be place possessing the necessary quali6-
cations shall have been supplied with at least
one free delivery office. The amendment
reduces the appropriation 81, 900 in order to
escape the restriction Of the rule that no
new legislation shall be in order unless it
reduces expenditures. After good deal of
opposition and after exhaustiug all the par
iamentary tactics against this, the amend
ment was adopted by vote of ia to SO,
and it was the only one adopted during the
day. Pending further action on the bill,

The Father OF the Girl Causes His Ar
rest-Attacked in Court
ATLANTA. GA. June IA sensation was
created here to-day by the arrest OF Milton
Moore, well-Snown drummer, in the EN-
ploy Of the Fulton county mills. Moore
was taken in custody late last night. He
was tried to-day on charge of disordery
conduct, but he will have TO answer the
more grave charge of assault with intent to
rape. Yesterday Moore met Miss Ozburn, a
16-year-old girl, who works for the same firm
in room alone. He became very familiar
toward her, and finally, the young woman
says put his arms about her waist and
forcibly attempted to kiss her.
She complained to the management, and
when she went home told her father what
the festive drummer had done. Mr.. Or
burn started out to hunt Moore, but, fail
ing to find him and punish him as he de-
served, the father, at a late hour, notified the
police, who soon arrested him.
ATTACKED IN COURT.
Alarge crowd filled the court room to-day
when the case was called, and when the young
girl, who was just sweet IL and very pretty,
told what had happened with tears In her
eyes, considerable excitement was mani
tested. One of those in the court
room was Sergt. Ozburn of the
city police force, an uncle Of the
girl He became very excited and indig-
nant, and when the gay drummer was leav-
ing the court room after having been bound
over 20 higher court, Sergt. Ozburn, with
out warning, sailed In and before he could be
interfered with succeeded in completely
spelling the kissing drummer's mouth
Several others were about to take hand in
Furnishing Moore, right under the courts
nose, but the police succeeded in dragging
the dismantled drummer out and locked
him up in the chiefs Office until the crowd
dfsnersad.
