DELEGATION FOR Mr.. PIG0TT
CHOSEN AT THE DEMOCR4TIC CITY
PROBATE CONTENTION.
Held in Turn Hall The Pigott Sup
portcrs Had Large Majority md
Pardee Chairman Of the Convention.

The democratic city probate conven-
| tion passed off very quietly last night.
| The convention was called to order at
| $40 by Chairman Martin of the town
committee, who called for nominations
for Chairman. William s. Pardee was
elected chairman receiving forty-fou
votes. Edward ]. Maher was elected
secretary The next business in order
was the selection of a nominating COM
mittee to nominate delegates to the
probate convention. John J. Lane of
the Sixth ward, moved that
the chairman be instructed to appoint
a committee of ten to make up list
of delegates and report back to the
convention. This motion was carried,
and Chairman Pardee appointed the
following committee: Albert Widman.
David E. Fitzgerald, Robert e. Holm
GER William ]. O'Keefe, John ]. Lane.
Edward s Ryan, Paul S. Rausch. A
recess was taken while the committee
retired to make up the list of dele
gates.
After being out about twenty min
utes the committee returned and pre-
sented the following list of delegates:
William S. Pardee Ernest Klenke,
Hugh Plunkett, DR.. John f Tubv
James e. Kerrigan, Michael Wradck,
John j. Sullivan Charles C. Spreyer,
James M Sheehan, William j. O'Keefe,
Willard ID. Warren, Lawrence OBrien.
Robert A. Hollinger f, P. Arvine, Will
liam Reagan, George w. Treat Josenh
Molloy, d. F. Kelley, Harry w. Asher.
David Pender, Sylvester Chase. David
E. Fitzgerald
After this list had been read John T.
Lane moved that the committee report
be accepted and the delegates recon-
mended nominated. There was some
trouble over the manner of taking the
vote. Some wanted to vote by an ave
and nay vote, while others wanted a
vote by roll call. Finally the latter
method was decided upon. A vote by
roll call was then taken and resulted in
~ taVorlng the election of the delegates
nominated by the committee.
There was some objection to this vote
although motion was made to make !
the choice of the delegation unani-
nous. To satisfy the objection anoth- !
er ballot was taken, and this resulted |
in forty-five for the delegation as REQ |
commended by the committee and tbirtv |
against The delegation as named |
above was declared elected.
This delegation is solid for James p |
fl2ott for the nomination for iudea of
PROBATE and the general opinion now
seems to be that Mr., Pigott will receive
the nomination in the probate conven-
ton.

Danbury, Sept. 19.-This afternoon the
engineer of the passenger train of the
Danbury division due in this city about
p. m discovered a man lying on the

board the train and brought to this city.
Though alive when the train reached

ed, but there was nothing about him to
establish his identity Eight dollars was

Places Loss of Life at $4,000 and DAM
age Mt sec, 100000.

Houston Tex, Sept. 19.-Governor
Sayers wires as follows tonight: "The
situation tonight in all parts of the
stricken district so far as known to me
is improved and will I believe, should
we have fair weather, continue to i'm
prove. The method of distributing the
benefactions of the people has become
systematized and has been reduced to
the lowest expense possible and in this
/ have had the hearty and voluntary
assistance of the railway, express. tele-
graph and telephone companies, all of
whom have promptly and without
charge transmitted supplies and mes
sages besides contributing to the relief
of the sufferers. Galveston is being
managed by it's own municipal authori-
ties, supplemented by the assistance of
committees composed of it's best citi-
zens and also by the aid of General
Scurry I am also informed that the
United States marshal, Dr. Grant, has
rendered and is rendering most valua-
BILE aid.
IT have supplied Galveston with suf-
ficient money to pay reasonable wages
to all laborers who will assist in cleans
ing the city and removing the vast
amount of debris that has accumulated
Provisions and clothing have also been
shipped there to supply those who are
needy and unable to provide for them
selves I have also made ample pro-
vision for the relief of sufferers as they
reach and pass through Houston from
Galveston. AS soon as / am able I
shall give to the public complete item
lied statements Of all money received
by me, how it has been distributed,
etc.
1.-THE loss of life occasioned by the
storm in Galveston and elsewhere on
the southern coast cannot be less than
12OOO, while the loss of property will
probably aggregate s2O,OOO,OOO Not
withstanding this severe affliction, 1
have every confidence that the stricken
districts will rapidly revive and that
Galveston will from her present desola
tion and sorrow arise with renewed
strength and, vigor. To the people of
the United States whose munifcent
generosity has without solicitation from
me contributed so much to the storm
sufferers l, as governor of this state,
beg to tender my most profound and
most grateful acknowledgements, as
surfing them their generous benefaction
will be held in lasting remembrance by
the people of the state.
1--WE have not been left to stand alone
in our trouble, but messages of earn
est sympathy, accompanied by large
in money and supplies
and also in personal assistance, through
the Red Cross and other benevolent So
cieties have had the effect to relieve
the situation of much of its sadness
and misfortune.

THIRD TICKE PIRTY.
A Meeting To-day Regarding With
drayyaI of Head of Ticket.

New York, Sept ia meeting of
those interested in the National (third
ticket party movement will be held to-
morrow in the office of Everett V. Alb
bott in William street to decide what
steps shall be taken in view of the
withdrawal of the party's presidential
candidate. There is some difference of
opinion as to the course which should
be taken by the party now. They are
strongly in favor of making another
nomination for the head of the ticket
and carrying on the campaign on the
lines originally laid down. In some of
the states the efforts of the third ticket
are likely to be confined to
the nomination of single elector, and
for this reason the composition of the
national ticket is not matter of quite
so much consequence.

his family here to-day, states without
qualification that he Is rapidly improv-

allowing a physical pressure upon GER

to properly control his nerve centers,
has so far been absorbed under the
treatment he has been receiving that he
is now only slightly troubled in thought
or speech, and in general he is practl-
cally himself again. AT no time during
Ihis illness has his physical condition
failed. The physicians say they are
agreeably surprised at his recent rapid
gains and they are confident enough to
hope for an early complete recovery.

Washington, Sept. 19-With the Ger
man proposition to postpone negotia-
tions with China until the persons re-
sponsible for the Pekin outrages are
punished, and the French and Russian
notification of the purpose of those
governments to begin such negotiations
at once awaiting him, the president
found much matter of Importance to

Although it was stated that no

with Attorney General Griggs, Acting
Secretary Hill and Assistant Secretary
Adee, had arrived at a conclusion as
to the nature of the response Mr.. Adee
spent the afternoon consulting Acting
Secretary Hill and in drafting the note
of response, but all information as to
its contents was refused at the state

The conclusion reached from the days

aligned against France and Russia,
while both sides are ardently seeking

London, Sept. 20,-4 a. m.--The only
news of Importance from China this
morning Is contained in a dispatch to
the Times from Shan ghai dated yester-
day asserting that Sir Claude Macdon-
aid will become British minister at To-
kio and will be succeeded at Pelxin by
Sir Ernest Mason Satow, the present
British minister at the Japanese CAPT
tai. This says the Times correspon-
dent, is disappointing to Britishers in
the far east, as they had hoped that
stronger diplomatist would be sent to
Pekin.
According to the Daily Mails st.
Petersburg correspondent Russia will
claim an indemnity of e100,000 900.
Washington special says: 1.-THE
change of front on the part of the Unit
ed States government regarding Rus
sia's evacuation proposal was due to
the fact that Mr. Conger and Mr.. Tow
er confirmed information obtained by
the British minister in st. Petersburg,
