BRICE IS IN THE WAY
lie Seems to Be Afraid to Let the
Democrats Meet.
SO Mr.. THURMAN CONTENDS
The State Committee Issues a Call
to the Ohio Democracy-Four-
Flfths of the Party In That
State Favor Free Coinage.

Columbus, Ohio, June 4.-The follow
ing was issued from the rooms of the
democratic state committee this even
ing:
To the Democrats of Ohio: From
the vast number of letters received by
this committee from all parts of the
state urging the calling of the demo-
cratic convention, the idea seems TO
prevail with large number that this
committee has authority to name the
time and place for the holding of the
state convention. This. however, is
not the case. The authority to issue a
call for the assembling of the conven-
tlon is vested in the state central COM
mittee, and the calling of that commit
tee together for the purpose OF naming
the date and place rests with the
chairman of the state central commit
tee, NJ. A. Smalley of Upper Sandusky
The state legislative committee, from
the information it receives. believes
that the rank and file of the party of
the state desire that the convention
should be assembled at once The re-
publicans are already in the field. Why
should not the democracy be there
also? The undersigned know of no
reason other than that Calvin S. Brice.
who apparently controls the chairman
of the state committee, will not permit
IT. The reason for this is perfectly ap-
parent. Senator Brice, realizing that
he is not in harmony with the great
majority of the democratic party of
Ohio on the money question, wants
time in which he can, by political
manipulation and machinery. control
II possible the declaration that the
democracy of the state will make upon
this issue in the convention. He seems
to be afraid to let the democrats of
the state meet when they so desire and
express their independent views. How
successfully a political machine may
control convention and misrepresent
a political party is thoroughly demon
strated by the late republican conven-
ton at GAINESVILLE. Judging from the
information received by officers of the
legislative committee, we are led to
believe that at least four-fifths of the
democratic party of Ohio are in favor
of readopting the plank of last year
advocating the coinage of gold and sill
yer at 16 to l, and we further believe
that they should be permitted to meet
in convention and so express them
selves IL this is their will, free from
any interference from leaders on either
side of the question. Senator Brice
knows what this result will be, if the
democrats of the state are permitted
to freely, and untrammeled in every
way, express their own views; and.
therefore, he will continue to do all in
his power to prevent the convention
from being held until he is ready.

SHOT FOUR TIMES.
Hospitui Pationt Turns a Pistol Loose 9
on Every body in Sight.

Cleveland, Ohio, June AT 3 O'Clock
this afternoon Bernard Conner, a pa
tient in St. Alexis Catholic hospital
shot a fellow patient named Timothy
Donavan four times sent a bullet
through the leg Of a nurse named
James Cantillon. and then tried to kill
himself. Conner is suffering from dys-
pepsia and is very irritable. Donavan
had worried him and he had threaten
ed to kill DCnavan. This afternoon he
sat up in bed, drew a revolver from be-
meath the bedclothes and fired. one
bullet struck Donavan in the head. an
other broke his left arm. a third enter
ed his shoulder and the fourth plowed
a hole in the abdomen. Cantillon. the
nurse, entered the room at the time
and Conner fired the last bullet at him
Then the fellow tried to beat out his
brains with the pistol Donavan is
still alive but cannot recover.

FOR THE POSITION
Several Names Mentioned for Secretary
of State.
MR.. OLNEY IS IN THE LEAD

tlously. and Has Given Out
No Positive Information.

Washington. June 4.-There is no
longer any reasonable doubt that the
president has fully determined to ask
Attorney General Olney TO accept the
state department portfolio. The presi-
| dent has not intimated to Olney his
| purpose. To other members of the cabi-
net, however. he has stated in sub
stance that he will ask Olney to accept
the place. He is delaying the public
announcement in order that he might
at the same time name a successor to
Olney as attorney general.
The cabinet officers, after the meet
ing to-day, said no appointment had
yet been made to fill the vacancy
Senator Gray of Delaware, came over
from Wilmington to-day and went di-
rectly to the White house. 1t was
thought his visit had connection with
the vacant cabinet office Gray was
the most earnest champion of the ad-
ministration in the senate, and as a
member of the committee on foreign re-
lations, has become familiar with the
duties of the secretary of state.
Senator Gray's visit to the White
House was undoubtedly i'm response to
telegram from the president. who. IT
Is believed. would not hesitate to offer
Mr.. Gray a place in his cabinet, were
u not for the fact that his retirement
from the senate would almost GER
tainly result in the election Of a repub-
lican successor. 1t is thought that up
to this time the president has not def
nitely decided upon Mr.. Olney's sue
cessor. a long list OF names are being
discussed. but everything in that con-
nection is purely speculative. Ex-
Postmaster General Don NJ Dickinson.

however, may operate against his an
pointment. but in case he is selected.
1t is believed Mr.. Uhl. the present as
sistant secretary Of state, would be n

this place at the time Mr.. Maxwell was
appointed.
