gates from Richmond, that he would not

withdrawal-his poor hedth-and hun
dreds of Richmond people will also re-
greet that the city is to lose the services

ANrI-sTRIKE BILL IN REICHsTAG.
Belief Expressed That II VIII Not
UecOme a Law.

BERLIN. June 1.-The Reichstag. con-
trary to expectations received the anti
strike bill to-day. The provisions Of the
bill are now less stringent than the En-
peror at first intended
The measure provides that whoever
threatens to forcibly prevent persons from
going TO work will be sentenced to a
maximum of a years Imprisonment
Where there are eXtenuating circum-
stances a fine of 1000 marks will be i'm
posed
The same punishment will be meted out
to those who threaten boycott TO compel
employers or employees 10 desist from
work or who, during a lockout, try TO
force employers or employees TO yield to
their demands, or whoever threatens TO
maltreat or otherwise modest nom
strikers
The bill is not likely to pass before the
adjournment of the Reichstag. and it is
not likely to pass at all in its present
shape.

YESTERDAY A DAUGHERTY DAY.
There is as Yet No Winning slate,
Though, Mt Columbus, and 1t IN
Thought There VIII BE None Until
After the Test of BaIlOtinEs

COLUMBUS, o.. June 1.-Quite 1000 per-
sons were crowded into the auditorium
this evening, when Chairman Huling, at
4:26 O'Clock, called the Republican state
Convention to order. Beyond the appoint
mont Of committees and the selection Of
State central Committee, no business
was transacted at to-days session.
Besides the speech Of Mr. Huling and
that Of the conventions temporary chair
man, Hon. W. Kerr brief speeches were
made by Senator Hanna, Senator Foraker,
and Governor Bushnell All the speakers
pleaded for harmony, and the affair SEEM
ed political love-feast.
While harmony was the keynote OF all
the. speeches at the convention. however,
some of the addresses, delivered at the
hottest sounded notes of bitterness and
defiance. Tonight the leaders spent their
time in conferences and contests that
were not harmonious.
A DAUGHERTY-DAY.
This has been Daugherty-day as
much as yesterday was Nash-day
There is as yet no winning slate. and
there are those who believe that no win
ming combination can be formed until af-
ter the test Of ballotng.
While II. NJ. Daugherty has apparently
had the best OF It all day-at the confer
ences In the morning. in the selection Of
committeeman in the afternoon. in the
demonstrations at the convention, and in
the proceedings OF the committee to-
night-yet he is having odds only as the
leading candidate, and not yet as win
ner. Nash will be a close second, and
Lieutenant Governor a. w. Jones much
closer third than has been anticipated up
TO tonight.
