ADVANCE GUARD AT WORK
Looking After the Presidential EcOms at
St. Louis-McKinley Autographs
and Badges to Be Distributed.

st. Louis, June by common con-
sent the advance guards of the several
presidential booms made this a day of
rest from the arduous tasks imposed by
politics. At the hotels the gentlemen
were "out" to all callers.
The matter of accommodating the
negro delegates at the hotels has begun
to assume troublesome Importance The
Business Mems league, desiring to carry
out every promise made in securing the
convention. felt called upon last night to
issue general circular asking that all
public places of amusement, at least for
convention week, accord to the reput-
able colored men who will come here
representing their section and their peo-
pie in the Republican party such treat
ment as any reputable and respectable
person would receive. A number of en-
terprising local negroes have rented an
old club house and fitted it up to onter-
tain the colored delegates.
Last evening the Hon. II. c. Keren's,
MissOuri's national committeeman, and
eX-Congressman Frank, left the city to-
gether for Canton, o. A telegram from
Major Mckinley yesterday was the
cause of this trip-a telegram asking
Mr.. kerens to come for conference
Messrs. Kerens and Frank arrived in
Canton this afternoon. They will re-
main until p. m., returning to St.
Louis via Chicago. The brief telegram
from Mckinley gave no hint of the OBJ
ject of the conference.
Among the arrivals this evening We're
w. b. Gaitree, of Columbus, O., who
will decorate the Mckinley headquar-
ters at the Southern hotel, and super
intenu the distribution of badges, ltho-
graphs and literature. Tomorrow there
will be. distributed in this city 10000
Autographs of Mckinley, and badge
will be given out, being a red ribbon
bearing McKinley's picture and the
wrds Patriotism, Protection and Prog
ress, Our Nations Choice"

TIMES STRAW BALLOTS.
Results Of the Inquiries Regarding Gold
and Sil'er Sentiments Among Demo.
Gratis Throughout the Country.

New York, June THE New York
Times will print tomorrow morning tele-
graphic answers from it's correspond
ents in all states where silver delegates
have been elected to the following ques-
tion:
IF the silver Democrats control the
Chicago convention, what candidates
for the Democratic nomination for pres
ident and vice-president would be ia
vored by the silver Democrats and dele
gates of your state?'
In commenting upon its replies, the
Times will say:
Gossip on presidential candidates.
two months ago, was almost confined to
the bitter contest in the Republican
party between Mckinley and his many
opponents. The Democratic party was
attracting much attention but not on
it's candidates as it was agreed that
the contest in that party should centre
on the financial question and considera-
tion should be given to men after it had
been settled whether the party would
support free silver of the gold standard.
The replies from the correspondents
of the Times show but little of spirit
of compromise among the silver men
of the west and south. They apparently
care more for Populist support than for
the support of eastern gold Democrats.
The general sentiment among them is
favorable to some man who has shown
by his past record that he is for free
silver. Therefore Campbell, Stevenson.
Matthews and Morrison have very little
following and sentiment is centerng
upon the extremists.
Governor Boies. of Iowa, seems to be
the favorite silver candidate. In the
states where opinion las been formed
he apparently leads all the rest in
strength. Next to Boies, Bland seems
to have the greatest strength.
Sentiment for a presidential
candidate has not been aroused. Sem
ator Daniel, of Virginia, is the first
candidate in the field but speculation
takes in all presidential possibilities"

BAD TROLLEY ACCIDENT,
A EOy Killed and Several Persons
Seriously Injured on Runaway
Car at Brooklyn.

Brooklyn, N. Y, June 7.-One Of the
worst trolley accidents occurring in this
city for long time took place this af-
ternoon on the steep grade running
along 39th street from Second to Sixth
avenue. One boy, aged II, whose iden-
tity could not be ascertained, lost his
life, and nearly score of persons, most
Of them from New York, suffered more
or less serious injuries.
About 440 o'clock car 791 of the S9th
street branch of the Nassau system
started from the ferry at the foot of that
street for Coney Island with 1873 pas
sengers on board The car had pro-
ceeded to within 200 feet of Sixth ave-
nue. when the trolley suddenly slipped
from the wire and before the fact could
be realized the car started at an alarm
ing rate backwards toward the ferry
The widest excitement prevailed Mo-
torman Charles White was powerless
TO check the speed of the now unman-
ageable runaway and do what he might
from the rear platform. Conductor John
Cochran could do nothing with the
brake. After the accident the latter
declared that one of the brake chains
had snapped beneath the car as the
momentum was too great for such an
unusual test.
After a mad career of nearly four
blocks the flying car left the track with
terrific whirl and brought up against
a telegraph pole and the curb. In
striking the curb one of the forward
wheels was smashed and the body of the
car was badly shattered
AS the liberated car flew down 39th
street the passengers began jumping
off to save themselves which accounts
for the number of injured. The youth
who was killed fell or was pitched out
simultaneously with the crash against
the curb.
The left side of his head struck the
sharp edge Of the coping and was
crushed almost to jelly. The most
severely injured are: Mary Evans. aged
45, Brooklyn, sustained internal injuries
as well as fractured both legs and arms.
She will probably die

TROOPS FOR SOUDAN.
English War Office Authorizes an Early
Departure Victory Over Natives
at Akasheh.

= London, June The marquis of
Lansdowne, secretary of state Of war.
has received telegram dated Akasheh,
June Z, evening. from Sir Herbert
Kitchener, Sirdar Of the Egyptian ar
my, saying:
we surprised the enemy at dawn at
Flrket. They resisted gallantly holding
the hills and villages. but were COM
pletely defeated and their retreat cut
off. We captured their camp and all
their camels, horses, and provisions.
Our casualties were slight The troops
behaved eXcellentiy."
The war Office has ordered the heads
of STAFF to prepare for the despatch of
800 troops at the end of August. Part
Of these will go to Egypt, while the re-
mainder will he used to replace the
drafts from Gibraltar and Malta, from
which place troops now there will be
sent to join the Soudan expedition.
The orders indicate that $500 British
troops will take part in the expedition
in September The Indian contingent
will then number nearly 1000, making
the combined strength OF the Anglo
Egyptian forces about 2i,C00 men.
An advance on Dongola. would not re-
quire such an army. The objective
point is now believed to be Omdurman
and kassala and the wiring out of the
Mahdists. If the plans are successful
the Indian troops will move from Su-
akin in July aud occupy Erkowit, thirty
miles southwest of that place, on the
road to Kassala. Here they will go into
cantonment, which will be made the
base of an advance on kassala and
Berber.
The negotiations between the British
and Italian governments regarding
Kassala joint to joint occupation carly
in the autumn. In asserting to aban-
don Kassala the Italian government re-
turns it nominally to Egypt. The Egyp-
tian treasury, under English guarantee,
will pay Italy part of the sum expended
in the defence of kassala against the
dervishes. Italy needs the money, and
can surrender her hold upon the place
to advantage.
A dispatch from Akasheh, the ad-
vanced post occupied by the Egyptian
troops in the Soudan, states that 1000
Dervishes were killed in the fighting at
and around Firket, including their COM
manGor, Enir Hammuda. The Egyp..
tian loss was 70 killed and SO wounded.

MAGEE FACTION WINS.
Generally Successful at the Rcpnbli.
can Primaries of Pittsburg.


can Primaries of Pitts burg.
e. Pittsburg, June 7.--Neturns from the
Republican primaries, which We're held
In this county yesterday afternoon and
evening, are not all in, but enough have
been received to show that the candi-
dates of the Magee faction have been
generally successful. That faction to-
night claims the nomination of all its
candidates in the county except in the
first and second legislative districts.
The Quay or Reform" party, how
ever, maintain that their candidate for
judge and county controller, Messrs.
William b. Rodgers and James A. Grier,
have been nominated.
A novel feature of the election was
the casting of ballots to indicate the
preference Of the electors in the matter
of candidates for the presidency. The
Quay people generally ignored this issue
and refrained from placing tickets at
the polls from voting on the question.
and the result was that the returns were
overwhelmingly in favor of Mckinley.
In Allegheny, where the Quay faction
showed the greatest strength, out of 90
900 votes estimated polled. only about
COO were cast for presidential preference,
most of them being for Mckinley.
Messra. Dalzell and Stone were re-
nominated for congress without opposi-
ton.
