THE GRESHAM BOON.
1t Receives a Decided
Setback at Omaha.
A LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE
Being Preparedby President Harrison.
General Political News.

OMAHA, July 2-The anxiety over the
position OF Judge Gresham In connection
with the presidency has become so inten-
sificd that the national executive commit
tee agreed that one Of its members
should telegraph Gresham at once. stating
that there was general desire to nominate
him for the presidency and asking him II
he would accept the nomination and make
the fight on the Peoples Party platform
IL the nomination he rendered him.
Judge Gresham last night repliedi II
stand by my interview of few days ago
on this subject My name will not be
presented to the Omaha convention"
In the interview to which Judge
Gresham refers he stated that he
agreed with the Peoples Party In a
great many things. but did not agree with
that party in all its declarations. This
telegram from the Judge is interpreted as
meaning that he cannot stand as candi;
date on the ST. Louis platform. The tele-
gram caused considerable excitement hero
and 1t was generally accepted by the more
conservative as clearly indicating that
Judge Gresham did not desire his name to
be longer mentioned in this connection.
The indications now are that the
Gresham boom Is thing OF the past ana
that General James B. Weaver OF Iowa
will be the party's presidential nominee.
Senator Stewards boom, however, has re-
ceived quite an impetus. General Terrell
of Texas is prominently mentioned In con-
nection with the vice presidency
The passage of the free silver bill by
the Senate has given great satisfaction to
the Peoples party delegates here. The
leaders agree that nothing could have
been done ut this time that could have
been more propitious for the Peoples
party hopes.

Democrats Urge Cleveland to Mako Hin,
Man agcr OF tho Campaign.
BUssARD's Bar, Mass, July a-The
date on which Mr. Cleveland will receive
the official notification OF his nomina-
tion by the Democratic national convsn-
tion has not yet been fixed. The published
statement that he would receive the COM
mittee on the 18th inst. is, II seems, un-
authorized by him.
He said yesterday that no definite Gr.
tangement hns been made: The matter
Is as unsettled as when The convention ad:
journcd. Mr.. Cleveland is of the opinion,
however, that the date on which he will
receive the committee will be nearer
July 30 than the one previously 81 ven.
The subcommittee which has been ap-
pointed to confer with him In arranging
the time and place for the notifcati on has
not yet been heard from. Whether the
members intend to walt Upon him Ia per;
son or communicate with him by mail or
telegraph is not yet apparent.
IL seems like waste of effort for tbs
subcommittee to go through the formal
ity Of an official visit, when the end de-
sired can be accomplished by means OF a
letter or dispatch. Mr.. Clevelaud's mail
Is filled with letters urging the selection
~ William G. Whitney as the manager Of
the campaign. These letters come from
leading Democrats in all parts Of the
country.
Mr.. Cleveland takes the view that he
ought not TO meddlc unnecessarily in the
affairs of the national committee, and he
is allowing matters to shape themselves
instead of attempting to control them by
the exercise OF his nominating influence.
There is no doubt, however, that he would
be immensely pleased IL Mr. Whitney
would consent TO assume the management

Boston, July 2-Tbe new law provid-

He says: "Women or children cannot
carry home work to be done In the even

new law. A woman who works fifty
eight hours week In a sewing room. for
instance, has done enough, In the opinion
of the legislators; and II she takes work
home, or IL her employer gives her extra
sewing to be done at home, they both are
amenable to the charge OF conspiring to
defeat the statute. The new law will af-

ROBBER AND VICTIM

IOWA.
A Bloody Tragedy Enacted on the
strcets--sad End of a spree--The VIC
tim Makes Gallant Fight for Ills Life
aud Kills One of Ills Assailants.

CouNcu. BLUFFS, Iowa, June D.
Early yesterday morning one OF the
coolest and most atrocious cases of an
attempted highway robbery ever com.
mitted in this city occurred here, In
which one of the robbers was killed
and the life of W. Il. Jones, their vic
tim, is slowly cbbing away, The de-
tails, as learned, reveal villainous
plot, Jones is manager of the Sand
wich Manufacturing company In
this city, and formerly lived
in Sandwich, Ill. lie came
here from Fremont, Neb., about n
year ago, and took charge of the com
pany's business. For several days he
has been under the influence of liquor,
and last night fell in with gang OF
notorious toughs. Jones was home
early in the evening with his wife and
a messenger called with the informa-
ton that man wanted TO SEQ him at
the Ogden house. lie left home and
started for the hotel. That was the
last seen Of him by his friends
until he was found in dark street
near the Ogden house more dead than
alive, He had wound In his head
caused by blunt instrument and u
bullet hole in his abdomen His right
hand clutchcd n revolver, several
chambers of which were empty He
could speak, but was too weak TO give
any information of the affair further
than that IL was an attempted robbery.
lie was removed to the hospital and
placed under the influence of opiatcs,
in which condition he still remains
On Broadway near Hack, about block
from where Jones was found, the dead
body of Jack Wade was discovered
with II pistol wound in the breast,
which penetrated the vital organs
causing almost instant death. Wade
is notorious tough, formerly of Dem
yer. Near the dead man lay revolt
YER with four empty chambers. Later
James Maher, an all round crook and
/. desperate, and Tom Crogan, mack
driver, were arrested as the two
perpetrators of the crime. The latter
made n statement TO the chief of police.
When Jones pulled his revolver and
commenced firing the robbers fed
along with Wade, who, after being hit,
ran short distance to where hack
stood and tried TO climb upon the seat,
when he fell back dead. The vehicle
covered with blood substantiates the
statement. Itds supposed Wade shot
Jones and one of the others then
struck him over the head with u billy
,r club. A woman who works in u
disreputable house near by, states that
the men dragged Jones limp body
through the yard and left him on tho
street, where he was found The
woman's statement is verified by sew
eral others who heard the shooting.
