FIGHT ENDED.
William Goebel Nominated for Cow
ernor by Kentucky Democrats
Rest of the Slate.

Louisville, Ky, June 2s.-William
Goebel, who with an iron grasp has
ruled the democratic state convention
since it assembled nearly week ago.
was on Tuesday night nominated for
governor on the twenty-sixth ballot
after contest unparalleled in this
state for bitterness and determination,
or on the part of the winner for skillful
manipulation. The end of the long, eN
hausting fight brought a reasonable de-
gree of harmony to the factions which
have been waged through the fight re-
lentlessly and battled for every inch of
ground. Nearly every body joined heart
lily in demonstration when their can
didate appeared for the first time be-
fore the convention to accept the nomi-
nation and return his thanks.
Louisville, KY, June 29.-The demo-
cratic state convention adjourned
Wednesday night after nominating the
rest of its ticket. The Goebel slate was
not even niched. Sometimes there was a
strong fight, in some cases more than
one ballot was necessary, but the re-
quired votes were always in readiness
when the time came to swing them. The
full ticket is as follows:
For governor, William Goebel of Kenton
county: lieutenant governor, J. c. W. Beck
ham, of Nelson county; secretary of state,
Brock Hill, of Clay county: attorney-gen-
eral, Judge r. G. Breckenridge, Of Boyle

TO INCREASE ARMY.
Gen. Otis to Have 10000 Men by the
Close of the Rainy season
in the Philippines.

Washington, June 90. = Secretary
Alger, Adjt. Gen. Corbin and Col. Bird,
assistant quartsrmaster general in
charge of transportation, had an hours
conversation with the president
Wednesday relative to the question of
reenforcements for Gen. Otis. A def
mite decision has been reached to con-
tinue recruiting men at all the recruit
ing stations for service in the Philip
pines, and Secretary Alger said when
he left the white house, after the con-
ference, that Gen. Otis would have 49,
900 men when the rainy season closed
for resumption of active operations.
The decision to REINFORCE Gen. Otis by
the end of the rainy season is interpre-
ted to mean that aggressive campaign
ing will cease until the bad weather
ends. Until that time our operations
viii probably be confined to occasional
excursions to places in close vicinity to
our lines where the insurgents may
have congregated in force By remain
ing quiescent under good shelter dur
ing the rainy season it is hoped the
health of our troops viii be conserved
and the danger from climatic fevers
reduced to a minimum.

Toledo, o., June 80. = Nine lives
were lost by the laundering of the
steambarge Margaret Olwill in Lake
Erie Thursday morning about two
o'clock. The following are those who
went down:
John Brown, captain, Cleveland; Mrs.
Brown, wife of Capt. Brown, Cleveland;
Richard Brown, son of captain; Miss Hunt

chief engineer; Luke Schinski, sec
ond engineer, were rescued by members
Of the crew of the steamer Sacramento
and taken into Lorain by the tug Cas-
cade. Duncan Coyle was picked up by
the passenger steamer State of Ohio and
landed at Toledo.
The barge Margaret Olwill left Kel-
lys island at. six O'Clock Wednesday
night bound for Cleveland with a cargo
of stone. There was little or no wind
blowing and everything was favorable
for pleasant run. At eight o'clock the
wind began TO blow from the northwest
and the little boat with thousand tons
capacity began TO go at a lively clip. AT
ten o'clock the gale commenced and the
wind blew at the rate of so miles an
hour. Suddenly the gale turned TO the
northeast and Capt. Brown found that
the boat was making but little head
way and concluded the only thing to do
was to turn back and go with the
storm. According to the story Of Coyle
it was two o'clock when the captain
gave the order to turn about The yes
sci had turned half way round when
the rudder chain parted and in an in
slant the boat was at the mercy of the
storm. She was caught between two
waves and as she was borne along the
top of one of them she rolled over on
The side. The cabins came loose from
the hull of the barge and f1oated on the
water while the rest of the ship went
20 the bottom. Whether any of the
occupants were able to take advantage
of this it is not known, but Coyle says
he saw SchinsEi, the second engineer,
and Hebron, the wheelman, after the
boat went down, but that was all. Coyle
caught hold of part of the after cabin
and climbed upon it.
