Lean captured enough to give him seem
inpIv a safe lead of 294 against 26l LOT
Sewall.
During this roll call there had been
trouble in the Ohio delegation, which was
nolled. and showed IA antiMcLean votes
locked ND by the unit rule, There was
also a big revolt against Governor Alt
ge1d's domination in the Illinois delega-
ton. Ex-Congressman Fithian made
fiery protest against the nomination OF
the Ohio editor II was at this crltcal
iuncture that McLean's telegram was
read by one of the Ohio delegates. Inc
telegram stated that it was Mclean
wish that he should not be balloted FOR.
Delegate Sloan, however after reading
the telegram, distinctly stated that Whlle
the telegram expressed McLean's wish,
it did not express the sentiment of Ohio,
which. on the fifth ballot, cast 46 votes
for Mclean.
FIocLed to the Maine Man.
The telegram, however. shattered the
Mclean forces. and Indiana Iowa and
other states flocked into the camp OF the
Maine man. SewalPs nomination was
unanimous before the conclusion of the
roll call, amid scenes of jubilatiOn and
rejoicing in the course of which the
state standards were paraded about the
coliseum in the wake of the colors of
Nebraska and Maine. 1t seems probable
tonight that the campaign headquarters
would be transferred from New York
to Chicago in order to bring them nearer
to the heart of the coming fray, and
that Senator Jones Of Arkansas, who
has made himself so conspicuous as
leader in the battle for the supremacy
of silver in the party. will be chairman
of the national committee, and will con-
duct the campaign.

Buckingham Palace.

New York, July ia London dispatch
says; The festivities incident to the forth
coming marriage of the Princess Maud Of
Wales and Prince Charles of Denmark
were inaugurated today with a grand
garden party in the grounds of Bucking-
ham palace.
Four thousand invitations had been is
sued to the nobility and aristocracy, Nom
bers Of the house Of commons and minis
ters of foreign countries, and within an
hour after opening the function the crush
was terrific. 1t was the first garden party
given by the crown since 1887, on which
occasion the crush was so great that the
queen was nearly mobbed. This year,
therefore, she delegated the prince of
Wales to represent her and the ceremony
adopted in making presentations al the
court drawing rooms and leVees was
brought into requisitOn to prevent his
royal highness being made uncomfortable
by the distinguished crowd.

her bed and took the baby girl Edna down
stairs, he had often done before. She
thought nothing of this incident and fell
to sleep again, and heard nothing during
the night This baby girl, two years old,
vas found on the floor of the sitting room
with it's throat cat. Carl. the -year-oid
boy was found on the sofa in the same
room, with his head mashed and throat
cut. The mother was in her bed with
head mashed and throat cut in the same
outside on the porch floor with his throat
cut. He was still alive but unconscious.
The instruments of butchery were broad
AK and razor. No cause can BE- given for
the awful crime, except temporary inSan-
ity. Mr.. Bray was a well-to-do farmer ana
a man very popular with his neighhors. So
far can be aScertained there were no
financial or domestic troubles that could
incite him to such desperation. He was
thirty-nine years old, member of the
Friends Church, and was active in church
and Sunday-school work. The coroner can
not report before Saturday.
