MURPHY Is DEsPoNDENr,
And Ostrom Claims That He Is Sure tO
Be Chairman.

And Ostrom Claims That He Is Sure to
Be Chairman.
FRESNO, May 16. - While it is hard
to make any predictions tonight, owing
20 the peculiar complications which have
arisen, the indications are strongly In
Ostrom's favor. If no radical change
occurs before the convention fs called
together tomorrow afternoon, be will
have a substantial majority on roll
call, and as a consequence Murphy'.s friends
are net shouting very enthusiastically.
While trying their best to conceal it they
are inclined 10 be despOndent, and show 1t
by the very expression of tn eiT faces. Such
men as English and Tarpey, the latter of
whom will place Murphy in nOmin alton. are
keeping their own counsel and saying that
they have hopes.
English Is managing Murphy's fight, but
IN a haphaZaTd sort OF way. de spends
most of his time in butt0nhOling delegates
and pays but little attention to organization
In fact he has not figure in his possession,
so far as Is known, that can show an esti-
mate Of the standing of his candidate, and
when asked 10 give a reason for his claims
on Murphy's behalf merely waves his
hand aud says: "Pardy, you can Just bet
we're all right, but we don't propose to give
our fight away. We're sure winners, and
don't you forget it. Figures, / have none,
but you can say that we are going to win. +"
Murphy DluSeiI is more CONSERVATIVE anu
has lost something Of his air Of careless in
difference. He seems to realize, or so his
actions would indicate, that he has a harder
fight on his hands than he al first aDtici-
pated and is getting down gradually to'hard
cold facts.
"My friends tell me am all right" he
said tonight, "but of course have not had
time TO figure out just how | stand"
One peculiar thing about his fight Is that
his own county of Santa Clara is not for
him TO a man, as has been generally be-
lieVed. The delegation is nearly so,
20 be sure, but one perVerse in
dividual is bitterly opposed TO him,
and all efforts to straighten the
Tecsleltrant delegate out have been utterly
without avail. His name they refuse to
reveal, bat they admit that they have
struggled with him all day and that he is as
stubborn as ever. II is a small matter, ap-
parently, and should cut no great figure in
the result, but the 0strOm men are using il for
al it is worth and 1t is hurting more than
the Murphy boomers are willing TO concede.
Ostrom, personally, is sanguine OF success
and says that if he is beaten he will be the
worst fooled man in the State Of California
He has taken charge of his own fight, and
there is no denying the fact that he
has managed it well. He is taking no
chances and is doing everything In a sys-
tematic and orderly way He has, either
directly or through his most trusted lieu
tenants, lined up4eVery delegation that has
SHOWN up, and he claims TO know pretty
nearly how each one stands.

New YORK, May 16.-The heavyweight
glove contest tonight between George God
frey and Joe Lannon at the COney Island
Athletic Club was a slogging contest from
the start. Godfrey had the best of it all
through. Fouls were claimed in the third
and fourth rounds, but were unheeded by
the referee. At the call Of time for the
fifth round Godfrey responded and Lam
non refused to get up, whereupon the ref
cree awarded the victory to Godfrey. Lam
non was very MUGS exhausted and could
hardly have lasted another round.

the fact that they are among the most in

number of votes, but just what strength
they can command it is not within the
bounds Of possibility to conjecture.

he will then give his decision as to the treas
ury portfolio. There is the best authority
for the statement that he will tell Mr.. Cleve-
land that he will accept IT, provided the
other men whom he will name can be
brought into the cabinet with him. As was
stated In these dispatches last night, Mr..
Carlisle wants sMr. Whitney smade Secre-
tary of Ltate, and thinks Mr.. Whitney
should sacrifice himself just as Mr.. Carlisle
would have to do IL he goes into the treas
ury. Mr.. Carlisle also wants his closest
personal friends, Col. W. r. Morrison and
John Randolph Tucker IN the cabinet. Mr..
Carllsle's departure for New York may have
been hastened by exsMAyor William r.
Grace, who arrived here this morning, took
lunch with MIR. Carlisle, and accompanied
him 90 New York. Mr. Grace, of course,
would not say what he had come for. but it
10 reported that he was the bearer of
request from Mr.. Cleveland that.
Mr.. Carlisle would come at
once to consult with him. Doubtless Mr..
Cleveland, who relies on MIR. Carlisles
Judgment, desires his advice about the New
York senatorship and the organization Of
the next House as well as about the cabinet.
Mr.. Grace called at Mr.. Blaine's. and said
after ward that he was better than he bad

Insubordination in This Country

ROME, Dec. 29--The Moniteur, the organ
of the vatican. says that recent reports in
regard to the mission Of Mgr. SatoIi TO the
United States are overdrswn, and 1t
promises to give the public light shortly on
the subject. The oabled reports from the
United States In regard to the differ
ences Of opinion existing there are
attracting more attention among
Roman ecclesastics than almost
any other foreign topic. Some OF the ad-
vices received are construed as indicating
insubordlnatlon toward the papal authority
ia high quarters in America. Should this
be shown TO the satisfaction OF the vatican,
decisive action. it is rumored, will be taken
TO enforce complete and unequivocal obe-
dience to the will OF the supreme pontiff, no
matter who may be affected by the pom
tifical action.
The pope has under consideration the
question whether Mgr. Satolll shall or shall
not ask TO be present at the inauguration Of
President Cleveland. All reports to the
contrary notwithstanding, Mgr. Satolli, or
his successor, Ia 10 act as papal nuncio at
Washington, with or without q title.

AN EXPLOSION AT PARIS.
ANARCHISTS SHAKE Up THE PRE-
PICTURE OF POLICE.

Slight Damage Done the Building. but
None of Its Inmates Injured - An
Hour Earlier 1t Would Rave Cost
Many Lives A Reign of Terror
Feared.
PARIS, Dec. 29.-An explosion at 1;30
O'Clock this morning in the hall leading to
the suite OF offices between the ground
floor and the first story of the prefecture of
police has caused sensation, but no
fatality. Windows were broken and wood
work damaged and a portion Of the ceiling
knocked down. Investigation showed
that the affair was undoubtedly the work
of anarchists who placed in
the entresol bomb heavily charged with
chloral powder. Fragments Of the cast
iron, which had formed the shell of the
bomb, we're found scatteted about the
place. These were fitted together as we'll as
well as could be done, and showed that the
bomb had been of sufficient size TO contain
two pounds Of the explosive material. The
explosion was badly timed. Had it occurred
an hour earlier there is no doubt that many
persons would have been killed.
REIGN OF TERROR FEARED.
The result of the inv estgation has caused
considerable excitement in official circles,
where it is believed that the anarchists, tax
ing advantage OF the confusion attendant
upon the revelations Of the Panama scan
dal. have started to inaugurate a reign OF
terror similar to that which prevailed
when Ravachol and his colleagues caused
the explosions here, when many Of tho
wealthy residents of the city hastily packed
their household effects and took refuge in
the country. The best detectives In Paris
have been detailed on the case.
THE RAvACHoL AVENGERS.
The anarchist society. known as the V. d.
r., or "Vengeurs de Ravachoi," has heen
holding a great many meetings of late,
since Francois was brought from London,
and it is supposed that his case is occupying
their attention. An Italian anarchist pass
ing through Paris is reported as saying that
the anarchists would not attack private
houses, "since it is rarely the victim aimed
at that is injured and innocent
victims are the consequence. We will at
tack public offices to destroy the records
and terrify the instruments of bourgeoisie
rule, and the banks to destroy capital, and
in that way we will strike blow at the
bourgeoisie society of to-day from which 1t
will find it difficult to recover"
GUsDE's POSITION.
Citizen Gusde, one of the militant chiefs
Of extreme socialism, who took leading
part in the recent meetings which resolved
upon an appeal to the army and a demon
stration at the Palais Bourbon, has taken
occasion to repudiate sympathy with the
bomb methods, while advocating what he
calls the social revolution.
There ia at present not the slightest evi-
dence that the explosion this morning was
caused by an anarchist bomb, although
some Of the anarchists would apparently
like to have it understood that such was
the case. Francois is said TO be as defiant
in the French prison as he was in London.

The Unfortunate People Forced to

LONDON. Dec. 29-The latest advices
from So. Petersburg and other parts Of
Russia show that the persecution OF the
jews and the inhumanity Of the cEar's
officials toward that unhappy race are
greater that ever before. Six edicts have
been issued aiming to disperse
weaken their position at the
trading centers, and crush out their res
ligion. These edicts are enforced with the
utmost riRor in many parts OF the empire,
and with severity everywhere. Moscow
papers boast that since the beginning of
lS9ls 10000 jews have been converted to
orthodoxy. The unhappy converts. who
have been driven to pretended
order to escape intolerable prosecution, have
been deported TO the district Of Tcherke-
sovo, about five miles from Moscow. There
they are vigorously governed by priests of
the Russian orthodox church, who require
them 10 attend the services of that church
aud TO comply with It's rules, watching mar
rowly for any sign of evasion OF repent
ance.
Recantation is punishable by banishmenI
to Siberia.
DRIVING THEM OUT OF THK TOWNS
The police have been making careful
scrutiny of the birth papers OF Jews with q
view to driving more OF them out of The
towns. None are allowed TO reside in the
towns except natives. Many OF the
tradesmen and artisans banished from
Moscow have settled in LODI
near Warsaw, which has rapidly risen to a
population Of l20. 900, most OF them Jews.
Under the impulse Of Jewish skill and in.
dustry Lodz ia fast becoming an important

LIrILE SCHEME.

Secretary of the Treasury Foster Was
Going Hand and Glove With the
Msnipulstors-A Telegram From the
President Took the Wind Out of His
Sails.
New YoRK, Deo 29.-The Times says
that Secretary OF the Treasury Fosters
trip TO this city was not on private BUSH
ness, as was given out officially, but was for
the purpose of consulting Wall street mag-
mates on proposition to relieve the money
market and check the export of gold by
having the government issue from $40, ,000,-
600 to sl0O, ,0OO, 900 Of bonds. Wall strees
men were In favor OF such q scheme, and
the speculative contingent were In high
feather.
HARRISON VETOED THE SCHEME.
The Presidents cooperation had been
counted upon as sure, but this oonhdencs
was suddenly discovered TO be dslusive.
The President not only refused 20 approve
the deal, but he went further and expressed
himself with unusual force and de-
clared that he could see no sx-
ouse for issuing the bonds, and, what
was more. he did not propose that any
should be issued while he was President.
According to Wall street reports, Secretary
Foster before he suddenly left town to go
west, is credited with having received
dispatch from Washington couched in pretty
stiff language, aud running substantially "a
follows:
want no new bonds issued under my admin
istration. Take no steps. Do nothing.

met the Wall street men at club house on
Fifth avenue and a prolonged conference
was held. Some OF the most notable men
In the street are said to have been present,

cial policy Of the governments. The action
Of President Harrison upset che plans en-
