Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 1.-THE Ma
tional Colored Democratic league met
in Masonic hall, this city, at noon to-
day, and will be in session for several
days.
A. E. Manning, who is president of
the Indiana branch, opened the con-
vention with an address of welcome.
President C. H. j. Taylor, of the Ma
tional league, then delivered his annu-
al address.
Between thirty-five and forty-states
are represented in the convention, each
state entitled to two delegates. A COM
mittee was appointed to call on Gov
ernor Matthews and Chairman Tag
CART, of the Democratic committee, and
make arrangements for the league del
egates to attend the Democratic state
convention tomorrow.
President Taylor said that at this
convention a scale would be preferred
by which the organization would be
able to furnish a list of every colored
voter in the United States.
There are many prominent colored
men present, among whom are: H. c..
Atwood, of New York, ex-consul-gen-
eral to San Domingo; c. c. Curtis, of
Iowa; e. L. Dawkins, of Florida, and
William A. Christwaite, of Tennessee.
President Taylor prefaced his speech
by a denial of the story in morning
paper, crediting to Mr.. Taylor the
statement that President Cleveland
had not appointed a single colored man
to office without first consulting him
(Taylor).
Continuing, President Taylor said
that if the Democratic party would
follow where President Cleveland led,
it would remain in power as long as
the memory of man continues. He said
one-fifth of the negroes in the United
States were Democrats. He urged that
the resolution adopted by the conven-
ton should condemn lynching and de-
mand discontinuance of emigration
for twenty years
A committee was appointed to send
a message of congra tulation and greet
ing to President Cleveland.
During the afternoon the National
Democratic club selected c. H. J. Tay-
lor, of Washington, d. c., president;
NJ. S. Koonie, of Washington, secre-
tary, and A. P. White, New York, ser
geant-at-arms.
c. A. Hughes, delegate from San
Francisco, presented a resolution con-
demning the A. P. A. The resolution
warned all negroes from joining the
association, stating that it was I'M
American in its character, unconsti-
tutional in it's organization and espec-
tally unworthy the consideration of
a race of people who have
oppression, and who are at present
waging a peaceful warfare through
out the Union against oppression and
discrimination.

Jolly Ed. a Candidate.
No Fusion For Them.

Boise, Idaho, Aug. 14-[SpeciaLl-
The proposed general caucus of Dem
ocrats could not be gotten together
The purpose was to give the anti
Stevenson men an opportunity to
roast him in private, and have it out
but the Stevenson men would not come
in.
A small caucus of anti-Stevenson men
was held, forty or fifty being present 1t
was determined to ventilate the whole
matter on the floor of the convention.
Anti-Stevenson men claim enough
votes to defeat Stevenson.
Ballentine is ready to step out. if
necessary. but hose supporting him
think him the strongest man. They
claim forty-three of the fifty south
eastern votes.
Moreover, it appears, that ]. w
Reed, of Lewiston, is for Ballentine,
and that be is leading the northern
delegates. This does not tally with the
report that Reed is a fusion man, for
Ballentine is outspoken and vehement
against fusion. He says he has battled
for forty years for Democratic princi-
pies, and he viii have nothing to do
with a party controlled by cranks or
fanatics who went into it for office.

RAN DOWN A 'CYCLER.
Result is Involuntary Retirensenf
For Fifty Days.


New York, Aug. 14.-Police Justice
Quigley, of Gates Avenue police court,
Brooklyn, believes that bicyclists have
rights as we'll as other people, and be-
ing of that opinion he made an example
of Otto Schrumm, when the latter was
charged with running down A. w
Smith, of 149 West Ninty-sixth street,
while he was riding his bicycle on
Tompkins avenue, Brooklyn
David Miller, who saw the affair, tes-
titled that Schrumm had deliberately
run down young Smith. Smith was in
jured and his bicycle was smashed
Schrumms employer paid for the dam
age to the wheel and then Smith caused
Schrumms arrest.
Justice Quigley found Schrumm
guilty, and said: '%Too much liberty is
being taken with bicycle riders by
drivers and it must be stopped Bicy-
Gle riders have rights which must be
respected. They are human beings and
must be treated as SUCH Only recently
a young man, the sole support of a
widowed mother, was brutally cut down
and his murderer escaped. l propose to
make an example of you in this case
and will fine you $50, in default of which
you will go to the penitentiary for fifty
days"
AS Schrumm could not pay the fine
he went to the penitentiary.
