The three great states of Ohio, India
ia and New York on Wednesday held
their Democratic conventions to elect
j legates to Chicago In New York
everything was for sound money, al
though the silver men made showing
)f strength. Senator Hill heads the
Chicago delegation, with other promi-
nent Democrats of the state as his asso-
ciates. In Ohio the free coinage wing
scored decided victory, the vote on
platform standing 542 for free coinage
to 12S against. General A J. Warner
veil known in western Pennsylvania,
vas permanent chairman of the conven-
ton, and the selection was notable from
the fact that of late years, because of
his opposition to the financial policy of
the Cleveland administration, General
Warner hes not acted with the Demo
cratic party. In Indiana the silverites
had more than two-thirds of conven-
ton composed of over l 900 delegates,
Who were practically unanimous for Gov
arnor Matthews as the candidate for
president. Senator VooI hees and Tur-
pie head the delegates to Chicago. The
three states elect 152 delegates to the
national convention, of whom 20 are
for free silver and 76 for free coinage
with international arrangement only.

Birmingham, Ala, June 21.-While
Mary, the 9year-old daughter of Gwyn
Pickett, farmer living near Hartsele,
was passing from the kitchen to her
mothers room, across a porch, last

his crime. 15 miles away, where the mob
hung him to tree and riddled his body

to pray, and was granted one minute.
The girl is said to be dying.

The Harrisburg Patriot says State
Treasurer Haywood will begin Monday to
pay out the school appropriation for the
fiscal year ending the first Monday of
next June. The money will be paid out
at the rate of 100000 per week Last
year the appropriation WAS distributed
among the several school districts at
the rate of 100000 a week. The bal
ance in the general fund of the state
treasury at present is over 81, 800, 600
less than at the same time last year.
This is due to large decrease in the
state receipts. The department of pub
lie instruction will issue warrants to the
smaller districts and those pressed the
hardest for money before the larger dis
Tlcts are paid. A few of the smaller
districts have already received their
share. Philadelphia has asked for an
installment of $1,000 but it will have
to wait awhile. The payments at the
state treasury are heavy just now as the
various state institutions and the Judges
are being paid their quarterly amounts.
The state treasury expects to be able to
pay 5000, 600 a week of the school ap-
preparation after next month

have been delays due to the month or
more taken IN the transmission of mail

the negotiations have not proceeded be-
yond an Introductory stage.
The arrest of Mr.. Harrison, chief of
the British surveying party on the
British " Venezuela boundary has not
been communicated to the officials
here 1t appears to be conceded, how
ever, that Harrison was in the wrong if
the dispatches are correct IN stating
that he was on the west side of the
Cuyuni river. Mr.. Chamberlain, sec
retary of state for the colonies, laid
down the Cuyuni as part of the pro-
visional boundary, pending a settle

not make the contention that Harrison
was right in proceeding bes.ud this
provisional boundary. This YES from
the incident its serious aspect, as Harri-
son is not likely to be supported by the
vigorous British protest that was at
first anticipated.
a London special says: The Press
association announces that the British
foreign office is expected to take decided
measures in regard to the arrest of Mr.
Harrison, the crown surveyor of British
Guiana, by the Venezuelans.
The British newspapers comment on
the matter in violent language.

New York, June 20.-A steam boiler
built for the New York Steam Heatin :
Company, said to be the largest in t e
United States, arrived here t, day Tns
massive boiler weighs 80 tons. 1t is 30
feet long and about 40 feet in circum
ference. 1t can generate steam to fur
nish 1000 horse power.
The Edgar Boiler Company, of War
ren, Pa, took six months to construct it
and it cost $4,000. 1t cost another
81 200 to have it taken to this city. A
flat car capable of bearing 100 tons was
constructed expressly for the purpose of
conveying the giant boiler from Warren
to Jersey City by way of the Pennsyl-
wanna Railroad. At Jersey City the
boiler was transferred to a railroad float
and it was convened to this city.
1t took 40 horses to draw it from Forty
third street to Dey and Greenwich streets,
where the steam heating concern is To-
Gated. Buildings along the route shook
as the truck rolled through the streets.

GENERAL PoRFIRIo Diaz has just been
nominated for the presidency of Mexico
for the fifth consecutive term; and mas
much as his election will not be oppo-
sed, the presidential succession to the
Republic across the Rio-Grande has
practically been settled for another four
years. One-man power is so contrary
to the genius of Democratic institutions
that to call state governed as in Mexi-
co Republic involves contradiction of
terms. The condition of the country
under the enlightened rule of Diaz has
been so much improved, however, and
a practical dictatorship seems to be so
well adapted to the wants of Mexico,
that the continuation of the present in
sumbent in the pr sidential Office really
gives cause for congratulation.
