TARIFF CONVENTION.
Something of the Meeting Called t
Meet in Detroit June 2.

Detroit, May lit now transpires
that the attendance at the national non
partisan commercial tariff convention,
which meets in this city June =, will be
considerably larger than its projectors at
first anticipated.
Secretary S. B. Archer of the Tariff
Commission League has received creden-
tials already from commercial bodies
who have chosen a total of over 1000
delegates. There will also be some
delegates from laboring and agricultural
organizations. At least double that num-
Der of accredited delegates are expected,
representing Boards of Trade and Cham
bers of Commerce and other bodies of
like character. Other persons who at
| tend will be entitled to vote on all ques-
| tons excepting those concerning perma-
nent organization.
From letters received, the sentiment
| favoring holding annual non-partisan
tariff conventions is almost unanimous.
The Santa Fe Woman's Board of Trade,
the only organization of it's kind, sends
four delegates.
| The convention committee. consisting
of presidents of Boards of Trade. com
mercial bodies and labor and farming or
ganizations, representing various sections
OF the country, will meet June 1 and ar
range the final details and choose tenn
pOrary officers.
Auxiliary to the convention, and de-
signed to facilitate discussion, there will
be appointed four leading committees.
Their province respectively will be to
recommend ways and means for taking
the tariff question out of partisan poll
tics and making it business question,
and to suggest ways and means for i'm
proving the consular service in the way
of increasing our foreign trade. es-
peciall y with the Central and South
American republics; to report upon the
ACCESSIBILITY of recommending to congress
the creation of a system of commerce
manufactures and labor, the chief of
which department is to be member of
the presidents cabinet; to make recon.
mendations as to a permanent organiza.
ton and the holding of annual conven-
lions for considering the effect of tariff
laws and other national questions.
The convention is to be absolutely non
political and all questions must be dis
cussed from purely commercial stand
point. The convention will probably CON
tinue week or more.

DEMURRERS OvERRULED.

Cincinnati, O., May 17.-In the United
States circuit court Judge Sage over
ruled demurrers filed by defendants in
the case of Mary Louise Denver Lindley
against Louise G. Denver and others.
This is the suit wherein the plaintiff, a
daughter of the late Governor Denver,
seeks to set aside conveyances of real es--
tate made by her whereby she disposed
of her interest or nearly all of it, in the
estate of her father. The charges are
that she was induced to sign papers by
false and fraudulent representation and
that she signed some papers not knowing
what they were. The defendants will
have to answer the severe charges made
in the petition The case is one of wide
spread interest, as Governor Denver, the
father of the plaintiff, was of national
reputation and the suit involves property
to the amount of at least 81 ,000. 900.

Tonight the situation is unchanged and
the wounded are more comfortable. Ex-

of the North Texas Female college are
helping nurse the wounded.
This afternoon the funeral of Mrs.
L. II. Montgomery and three little chill
dren. victims of the storm. took place,
attended by hundreds of people. Fifty
graves have been dug in West Hill GEM
etery. and there are orders for fifteen
more. Undertakers establishments and
the telegraph Office are overrun.
Newspapers containing reports are
eagerly bought and read by the i'm
mense crowds that throng the streets all
day. The city is full of newspaper men.
Business houses are all closed and Deco
ration. Day ceremonies were postponed.
There will be no more baseball till the
Sherman team have returned from their
southern tour.
A shave pound of steak or sack of flour
is utterly unobtainable in Sherman to-
day or tonight. 1t will take several days
for the excitement to abate.
At 10 o'clock tonight Hiram Pierce is
expected to die.
The body of an unknown man, brought
in this morning, has been identified as
Mccullough. He will not live till morn
ing. All the other wounded are resting
easy. No one is allowed in the hospital.

Sherman presented indeed sorrow
full aspect today. To majority of her
citizens the full horror of the catastro-
phe of yesterday afternoon was not
known till today. Early this morning
the news that the Moore building, the
court house, the city hall and the two
undertakers' establishments were full of
diving and dead and wounded and the
report that the number of dead would
aggregate 100 spread over the city like
wild fire. Then every man, woman and
child dropped their work and waited in
the yard, on their home galleries or on
the streets for further news from the
hospital. Excitement was intensified by
innumerable reports, some true, most of
them false. of new finds in the field of

81 see by paper published in this coun-
ty that there are at least fifteen offices in
this county to be filled: and the number
of persons competing for them will most
certainly be twenty-five or more. At the
same rate. in even 100 counties, in which
this clectioneering will be going on to
win the valuable prizes now so much
sought after, there will probably be from
three to four thousand asprants for
office in the state urging the Democratic
voters to 30 into the primaries on the
9th day of June next in aid of the plan
of the Dudley committee. 1t would seem
that it was only lately realized, even by
the candidates, that such n canvass had
to he made, and perhaps not even yet
by ninctcen-twentlcthS of the voters in
the counties, who are generally busly en-
gagged in their usual ayocationS. Now.
is il proper thing to require voters. un-'
der such circumstances, to make a Selec-
ton of candidates for the different offices
and pledge themselves to vote for them
five months afterward? Are Democratic
voters. whether they are silver men or
gold men, soperhdious and unreliable
in voting their sentiments freely. as that
they must be bound by Il solemn pledge
five months before they east their votes
at the regular general election in Novem-
Der next? 1t may well be regarded as an
implied imputation of moral degreda-
ton which should make every freedom
loving Texan repudiate it with scornful
Indignation. Still that is part of the
plan of the committee, and the question
is. who will be the man or men in each
of the many counties of Texas to volun-
teer to take the trouble to warn the
voters-many. if not most of whom, do
not take and read the political papers
to keep away from the primaries on the
