TOLEDO, O.: June 23.-The Republi-

work today in a session of less than
four hours. While there had been
hard fight for two days for the control
of the central committee, there was ev
cry appearance Of harmony and enthu-
siasm today. The two contested dis

the Dick candidates, and this showed
that the state committee stood seven
teen for Dick and four for Kurt. Sen
ator Hanna was not only congratulated
on the result, but all the delegates
were seeking admittance to his apart
ments for conferences. Gov. Bushnell
not only accepted the situation COM
placently before the convention assem-
bled, by having friendly consulta-

made a strong speech of acceptance in
the convention. When GeV. Bushnell
declared: In spite of the statement

there was a loud demonstration. In the
organization of the state central COM

Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel Hill and Mr..

spirit promises to continue until that
becomes the prettiest city in America.
The roses grow on trees instead of
rose bushes, and strawberries in size
and flavor have never been excelIed

thing is to cut the strawberries in
slices like tomatoes, and three or four

CONFEDERATE VETERANS.
Gen. Gordon Reelected Against His
Expressed Desire

NASHVILLE, Tenn, June 23-The
morning trains today brought several
thousand people to the city to attend
the annual convention of the United
Confederate veterans. A business
meeting was held at which reports
were presented and Gen. John r. Cor
dOn delivered an address. The great
parade will take place tomorrow morn
ing. in which it is estimated 5000 vet
Grams will take part. Gen. Gordon pre-
faced his address today with an an
nouncement Of his intention to resign
as general commanding. There were
cries of mo, no. from all over the
hall, and when quiet had been restored,
Gen. Gordon proceeded with his ad-
dress. When he had concluded, a mo-
ton that Gen. Joseph Wheeler be re-
quested to nominate Gen Gordon for
reelection was made and carried. Gen.
Stephen D. Lee. who had been called
to the chair declared nominations
closed and Ger. Gordon was uHani-
mously reelected. The thousands OF
delegates present cheered and waved
their hats and handkerchiefs and the
scene was a most impressive one. The
committee on credentials reported
1856 names present and 1000 camps
represented.

Bushnell and others who spoke had
been frequently heard, but Senator
Hanna was not known before in his
own state as an orator. His delivery
was eloquent and forcible, and he cap
tured the convention by his command
ing oratory.
The convention went forward today
with the usual business. The report
of the committee on credentials was
adopted without division, as it made
no material difference in the control of
the convention, which was overwhelm-
ingly with Senator Hanna. The tenn
porary organization, with Gen. G. H.
Grosvenor in the chair, was made the
permanent organization, and the re-
ports of other committees were readily
disposed of. The following platform
was reported and adopted:

for the widening of the stone arch bridge
which crosses the East channel at Central

Aid Lane will probably introduce resolu-

Improvement on the grounds that the bridge
in its present condition is much too small to
accommodate the constantly increasing traf-
fc that flows across it.
The committee paid a visit of inspection to
the steel arch bridge, now being refoored,
and the aldermen expressed themselves sat

traced to this city short time ago and
the chief of the Denver police sent the
indictment against him to the detec-
tive bureau here with the request that
an arrest be made at once. 1t was
learned that the man was engaged IN
some business in the Knickerbocker
building, where he occupied a desk IL
the office of the Dramatic Review. A
warrant for his arrest was procured
yesterday from city magistrate and
the prisoner was arrested today on
Broadway. His picture was taken for
the rogues' gallery and the police of
Denver were notified of his arrest.
From evidence in their hands the
police believe the arrest was made just
in time to stop a wholesale swindling
scheme directed against the hotel men
of the county.

The Hibernians and their families for the
