Morton and the vicc-presidency.

ST. LOUIS, June 1.-THE complex situa-
tion OF last night, in which the bitter
feud between the New York factions, was
the principal factor, coupled with de-
sire to put MIR. Hsnna and the Mckinley
managers on record, continued this
morning, without material change the
halt being occssioned by the desire 10
get he presidential matter settled before
launching into vicc-r residential fight.
There was no disposition on Mr.. Platt's
part to make.any definit statement of MIR.
Morton's candidacy otner than to say:
"In the event of Mr.. Morlon's defeat on
the Pr, sidential issue, IL is thought that
MIR. Morton would accept the second
place." and he would ask for support.
Chairman Haokett, of the New York com
m ittee, said, "Mr. Hanna cannot be ex-
pected TO enter into the fight when he
has the Mckinley fight upon his shoul-
ders. Surely ne has nonors enough in
securing first place Tor his candidate"
At the Ohio beauquari ers, up to $50
O'Clock, no defiuite answer has been
given 10 Mr.. Miller or Cornelius Bliss as
TO their proposition TO secure aid i'm their
fight against Mr. Morton, ano they were
getting rather uneasy. Mr.. Miholland
said that there was no doubt but that
there would tie assista nee lent bv the
friends of Nick inley In the West to those
in the East who had assisted them, but
this view was not carried out by inter-
views with Mckinley adherents in other
States.
The Morgan people figure their vote on
vice. presidential position for Morton as
follows:
New York, Sc; connecticut. ~; Della
ware, @; Florida. 8; MARYLAND, 16; Massa-
chusetts, 80; Michigan, rs; Minnesota, is;

consin, "a; Missouri, II; Vermont, s.;
Utah, 6; Mississippi, Is. Total, 4a5.
For n choice, 1t would be necessary to
have 460 votes, aud 1t is claimed that
when the ballot is started the surprise
will be great as TO Mr.. Morton's strength.
But there is a great portion OF the day
in which to fight tho battle, and Mr..
Hanna is still the piyo; about which the
fight swings

made. The fight lies between Hobart OF
New Jersey and Morton OF New York.
In spite Of the protest Of the minority OF
the New YORK delegation, headed by
Warner Miller, II looks like Morton, but
II remains TO be seen whether Miller,
Bliss and Cruger can force the convention
to go elsewhere than New York for its
presidential candidate. The drift
seems to be toward Morton in spite OF
the protests of the anti-Platt faction in
New York and OF Mark Hanna. How
ever, the situation may change very
rapidly In either direction, just as soon
a. the convention effects its permanent
organization and settles down to business.
The weather, IL II continues disagree
able, will likely shorten the convention
AS tho delegates are already getting tired
and anxious TO get away. Two DAYS ago,
1t seemed certain that the convention
would not adjourn before Friday night,
but now. in spite of the practical inn
possibility OF eettinng tbourgh with 30
much business, there is talk OF an ad-
journment tonight Ii Is probable that
the end will be reached tomorrow. This
may intefere with The plans for huge
demonstration in hon or Of Mckinley that
have been projected.
The brass bands last night and the
heat indoors, kept most OF the delegates
on the streets until a iate hour and they
were late getting out this morning. The
Southern delegates especially are anxious
TO get away. They say that the profound
hamony and quiet air OF the convention
does not afford as much enterta Dent as
district and state conventions at home
and there promises TO be but little OPP
portunity for the usual display of oratory,
for which the orators on The floor are
always prepared. IL Is expected, how
ever, that the platform and the nominal
ing speeches will infuse some new life
into the proceedings today.

Crippled Girl Found Beg

Her Father Tells Very Strange
Story to Mr.. Thurber.
She Belongs in Fall River and VIII
Probably Be Sent Back.

Agent Charles II. Thurber or the So
ciety for the Prevention OF Cruelty to
Children has an interesting case on his
hands at present. Yesterday afternoon
Mrs. s. w. Sessions brought into his
Office little girl who was sad cripple.
The little one was begging on Brenton
avenue, and said her name was Smith.
She claimed Fall River as her home at
first, but then raid she came from Phil
lipsdale and later on stated her home was
at Valley Fails. When questioned as to
why she was begging she said she had
slept out two nights at Cat swamp. The
little one was sent to Oyerseer Cum
mings as there Is sickness at the society
home. MIR. Ihurter communicated with
the city marshall OF Fall River and he
recognized the child from the description

liable.
This forenoon Mr.. Thurter lived a
telephone message from the city poor de-
Jatrment asking him to 60 TO Overseer

there. The father claimed to have money
