Nose ley Is knocked out and Vaughan is recog- nized as chairman. Everything so far is Mckinley, except the two Moseley dele gates from the Birmingham district. Me Kinley has a majority of the republican nat onal executive committee and will continue to make quick work of contest ants in his favor.
 c. w. Buckley, D. D. Shelby, J. W. Jones and ". R. Pettiford are enrolled as delegates from the state-at-large; P. D. Barker and A. N. Johnson from the First district; N. H. Alexander and Frank Simmons from the Second district; Thomas G. Dunn and w. ]. Stevens from the Fourth district; D. N. Cooper and I. Dawson from the Sixth district; Charles D.

large from this state proved to be con- tested. R. R. Wight, colored, who at the outset announced himself the original Mckinley champion of his state, opened for the two contestants himself and J. c. Hetherington, an adherent of Senator AL lison, who were chosen at a second state convention, held after the first one had adjourned. W. H. Smythe replied in be- half of the delegates attacked, J. U. De vaux and H. A. Fucker, and showed from the sworn minutes that the two last named were selected by exclamation, the opposition making no protest until after the convention had adjourned. This and other proof was sufficient for the commit tee, and by a unanimous vote DeVauX and Rucxer were seated.
 The other contestants at large are A. c. Buck and H. l.. Johnson. In the first district of Georgia R. w. White and s. o. Cherry, both colored contested the seats of M. J. Doyle and s. M. Morse, colored, who were chosen at the regular convention. All four are McHinleyiteS, the two latter having been given instruc tions. Both sides were accorded full hearing. F. I. Lyons of the Tenth dis trict, a colored delegate, made a speech in behalf of Doyle. Doyle and Morse were seated, with five dssensions.
 The Ninth Georgia district contest was passed over until tomorrow and that in the Eleventh was taken up. In this case the seats of s. M. Scarlett and w. M. Jones, both colored, and instructed for Mckinley, were claimed by W. H. Mat thews and D. Outlaw. also colored, who were instructed for Reed by conven- tion consisting of seven bolters. Another exhaustive presentation of affidavits and personal experiences of persons present at the convention was in order and as result Jones and Scarlett were seated, with about half dozen votes in the negative.
 At 10:35 the first of the Kentucky con tests were called. but several commit teemen entered a protest against a mid night session on the ground that they had been on the rails from two to four nights and needed rest, and an adjourn ment was therefore taken until 10 a. m.

The Case of James Mcdonald.

James Mcdonald, we'll known in the city, having formerly conducted a bar business here, was arraigned before Judge F'eagin of the inferior court yes- terday, charged with stealing $40 from J. w. Shields. Mcdonald denies the charge and says he obtained the money from brakeman on the Alabama Great Southern railroad. The brakeman named was seen by an officer and says he did not let Mcdonald have any money. Mo- Donald now says 1t was another brake man. The court has held up judgment until the evidence of the latter gentle man can be obtained. The case will probably come up again this morning. Shields says he has found where Mo- Donald spent $15 of the money. McDon- aid is in the city jail pending the inves- figatfon

lishment of said court and the difficulty the municipal authorities have in mak- ing proper dispositions of the long term conVicts of that court. We recommend that this matter be called to the atten- tion of the mayor and board of aldermen, with a request from this board that if practicable and profitable some way may be devised to dispose of this class of con- victs as soon as possible after their con- viction, to the end that the city prison be relieved of the pressure and incon- venlence of their inearcerati ton and the city saving the expense of their main- tenance.
 We find that the great difficulty in the way of more perfect management of the city prison is want of room.
 In conclusion your committee desires to say that we made the inspection and investigation without notice to the chief of police and the wardens and city physi- clan, on day and at an hour-Monday, at or 9:30 a. m.-least favorable to good condition about the building, and were gratified to find these conditions so com plimentary, to the diligent attention to and official discharge by those officials of their respective duties.

 MT. P Cosminsky, from the board of park commissioners, addressed the board of police commissioners on the subject of bicycle riding in Capitol park when public demonstrations and musical con- certs were being given there. The habit of riding on wheels in said park on such occasions was detrimental to children, and even adults, and the park commits sioner asked that the board recommend an ordinance from the mayor and board of aldermen restricting wheelmen from riding in any of the public parks. The board requested MT. Cosminsky to appeal to the mayor and board of aldermen for such an ordinance.
