DIED IN HIS CELL.
Cleveland OfficfaI Confesses Embezxle.
ment and Commits Suicide.

CLEVELAND, o., Aug n.-George w.
Loehmer, for several years bookkeeper at
the city workhouse was arrested this
morning on the charge of embezzlement of
city money. At Z o'clock this evening he
was found dead in cell at the Central
police station under circumstances which
indicate suicide.
On June it was discovered that Loeb
mer had been embezzling funds intrusted to
him. The shortage then amounted to about
5000. He was permitted to retain his posi-
ton until his friends made good the short
age and was then dismissed. Since then
an expert investigation of the books showed
a further shortage of about $4,000. Loeb
mer was arrested at 4 O'Clock this morning.
This afternoon he made confession in
which he admitted the theft of 5000. He
was then apparently in good health. An
hour later he was found lying on the floor
Of his cell bleeding at the mouth. He was
put to bed and a physician summoned.
The doctor advised that the man be sent
to a hospital When the ambulance ar
rived to remove him he was dead. The
coroner is investigating the ,:ase. Loehmer
was thirty-eight years old. He had wife
and two children. but he abandoned them
soon after his crime was discovered and
they are now in Detroit. For some time he
had been living here with woman who
is believed to be actress and he was
with her ct a house on Diamond Park
when arrested this morning.

almost as dry az any of the past half-dozen
Sundays. Few liquor dealers took edvan-
tage of the privilege of keeping their places
open. which has lately been decreed legal,
provided liquors are not given away or sold

CINCINNATI, Aug. 1l-Democratic lead
ers throughout the Miami valley have
started movement to nominate John a.
Mcmahon. of Dayton, at the Democratic
State convention in Springfield next week.
Since the county conventions of yesterday
it is claimed that Senator Brices friends
will control the convention and probably
go further than to reaffirm the platform OF
1892. Senator Brice, Temporal
ry chairman, will sound the key
note and his friends are more
interested in the platform than in candi-
dates. There has been some feeling engen-
dered in the silver fight. Mr.. McMahon has
kept out of the fight and is regarded as ac-
ceptable to both factions. Ex-Governor
Campbell has declined to allow his name
used and Congressman Paul Sorg and Tom
Johnson refuse TO be drafted.
In the event that the free-silver men
should control the convention the nominee
for Governor will be John H. Thomas, Of

preferences, as well as the silver question,
