POLITICAL MIDDLE.
Maryland Republicans Badly Split on the Mat
ter of. Party Organization.

Ter OIL dTly OIS dlilZdtlUH'
Baltimore, Aug. 25.-The republican
stale convention which VIII meet at the
Atlantic pavilion at Ocean City tomor-
row promises to b.. one of the liveliest
in the history of the party in Maryland.
The convention will nominate candidates
for the state comptroller and clerk for
the court of appeals. A new state cen-
trail committee will also be elected. But
the chief interest in the conclave centers
about the rasul. of the fight in the ranks
of the party in this city. The contest
for mayoTalty nomination, Senator Well
ington as the leader of the organization,
has endorsed Theodore Marburg. The
friends of William T. Malster, president
of the Columbian works, protested
against having their champion thus ig-
nored and mad@ an issue before the peo-
pie, Malster developing great strength
at the primary elections held in his in
terest. The two set of primaries culmi-
mated in two city conventions which last
night named two candidates for mayor.
At the same time in each of the three
legislative districts which cover the en-
tir5 city, two district conventions were
held zach nomj.ating full delegations
to the state convention. Which of these
QclegatfOnS VIII De recognized Dy the
convention Is the mooted question.
Senator George L. wellington left here
last night for Ocean City. AS chair
man of the state central committee he
will call the convection to order. In
discussing the state of affairs in Bal l.
more the senator said that the r=al cause
of the trouble was ambitions and jeal-
ousies. He thinks the stare convention
will sustain the organization.

a candidat7 for denomination, and will
probably be successful

search untll e0re.a to do 50 by the dark

search until foresd to do so by the dark
ness.
A telegram Informing Governor john
ston of the occurrence and asking for
pack of bloodhounds was sent to this
city.
The governor who knew Lloyd well
was greatly shocked and Ut once wired
Convict Inspector S. B. Trapp to send
the dogs to Montgomery. The governor
then telegraphed the shsrlf of Butler
county that the dogs would be sent to
Greenvllle by the first train Thursday
morning.
The fact that the murderer is des-
perate man dissuad=d the searchers from
looking for him after dark.
Gafford is said to be married man.
When he disappeared he took south
westerly direction.
Further news of the affair is at a pre-
MUM at this hour.
The deceased was a native of Butler
county and received his education in the
common school. He moved to Mon gom-
cry some eight or ten years ago and has
been a representative in the state legisla-
ture for two terms, being elected twice in
succession, first by Montgomery county,
and subsequently, In the last general as
sembly from Butler county. He made
himself famous in state politics last year
male attorneys. and was one of the op-
ponents of the constitutional convention
bill.
He was gold democrat, ami IN the last
state convention he was candidate for
secretary of state against ]. Kirk Jack
son, this present incumbent, withdrawing
in the latter's favor aft the last moment.
Had he lived until the next state con-
vsntion he would, as he intended have
made strong candidate for secretary Of
state, Mr. Jackson having announced not
long since that he would not be a candi-
date for reelection.
Mr.. Lloyd bagan writing for n eyndi-
cate of Sunday newspapers here series
of humorous letters. mainly combining
himself to the quaint habits aIli dialect
of backwoods Alabamians. At the tims
of his death he contemplated issuing a
book containing those letters. The inquest
will be held tomorrow.

LYNCHlNG EMINENT.
The Reported Alleged Hanging Was Prema-
ture- -Murderers Still at Large.

Little Rock, Ark, Aug. p5--The re-
ported wholesale lynching in Cleveland
county proves to have been premature,
though 1t is liable to occur at any time.
1t seems that the rirgl-adeIs in Satur-
days riot at Kendall's mills have not yet
been captured. The only definite infor-
nation received from this district this
evening is contained in a special to the
Arkansas Gazette as follows:
Rison, Ark, Aug. 25.-Judge Smith,
Frank Matthews, Frank Wright and Geo.
Callahan, the main actors in the murder
of Il. L. Johnson, near Kendall, on Satur-
day last, are still at large. There is no
mistake about the murderous spartic.pa-
tion in this bloody affair of the negro Wi
ley, lynched on Sunday night.
There are six negroes in Jail here at
the present time charged with being con-
nectsd with the murder of Mr. johnson.
Two eff the number are thought to be
innocent, but the other four are believ;
to be guilty. Great excitement prevails
and 1t is difficult to state what the out
come will be. The sheriff's officers
securing the country for the ringles rs
and it is thought they can not escape.
