made an order for the winding up
of the Standard bank of Australia,
which suspended April 2Sth. At
the time of the suspension, it was
said that the institution would be
reconstructed, but any effort in this
direction has apparently failed.
The authorized capital of the bank
was a million pounds, of
which only about half had been
subscribed, and one quarter paid
in. The court has also granted
orders for the winding of the City

ESCAPED FROM PRISON.
William ormsby Breaks The Locks
And Sklps.

Quite an excitement was raised at the
Central police station early this morning
when William Ormsby knocked down a
door of the prison and escaped. He was
chased for severIa hours but was not
located and his whereabouts was I'M
know up to the time of going to press.
Ormsby. who is &c years of age, has
spent most of his time in the lookup for
drunkenness. Several days ago he was
fined $50 by Mayor Paschal, and again
went to jail. Yesterday he was asked to
do some work by City Tailor Hardy, and
refused. ball and chain was then
placed on his leg and still he refused to
work. The jailor, not knowing how to
conquer him, placed him in a
dark bin we'll known as the "Sweat box"
To this William seriously objected, but
his talk had no effect. The jailor locked
the door, which is one foot thick, and left.
One hour later he returned and found
Ormsby's ball and chain lying on the floor,
and on looking around, saw the door to
the bin knocked down. 0rmsby has bat
tered the door with the ball and had es-
capped through window. He is a most
notorious character, and the authorities
will do well not to bring him back to the
city.

The Ohio Republicans,

COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 7.-Spec-
ial.-The Star Political convention
of the year commenced to-day
1t was held in the Grand opera
House. The big, bustling, lively
assembly reappered to order just
before 3 p. m. The first notable
state gathering of republican dele
gates since the great defeat of 1892
For an Ohio Republican con-
vention, the general aspect was
one Of unusual harmony, and the
absence of both Senator Sherman
and Ex-Governor Foraker, as if by
tactic agreement, have contributed
to this appearance of comparative
peace. But there was no doubt
that Foraker was nOminally re-
tired from politics, but his friends
have not, while John Sherman, put
forward reminder of himself in
shape of notable letter, which
was read in the convention, sug-
costing material for a platform
upon party principles, to be enun-
ciated by the convention. Per-
haps more than any other topic
was the conversation among the
delegates chiefly directed. Aside
from the political fortunes of Nc
Kinley the future of the Republi-
can party itself was felt to be large
ly at stake and anxiously as to the
outcome of the convention on this
point was particularly apparent.
After prayer by Rev. David H.
Moore, temporary chairman Gen.
Chas. III. Grosvenor delivered an
address, which may prove not I'M
likely, the keynote of the platform,
landing the Mckinley bill as a
moral of wisdom, and attributing
hard times not so much to the sill
yer problem, as to apprehend
that the Democrats will proceed
to carry out pledges in regard to
upsetting Protective Tariff, Pro-
lection and Reciprocity, General
Grosvenor declared amid great
cheering, were twin cOursers of
American prosperity. The reading
of Senator Sherman's letter was
listened to with close attention.
After common credentials and per-
manent organization had been an
nOunced a recess was ordered un-
til tomorrow.
