Negroes as Mechanics.

Trenton, n j., March 24-Tne chief
Of the bureau of statistics Of the
state OF New Jersey William c. Gar.
risou, has for some time past been in.
yestigating the status of the negro
as q laborer in mechanical ana manu-.
featuring industries He finds that
in the manual training schools Of the
state the negro pupils show great ap-
titude in acquiring mechanical kncEl-
edge but are much slower in learning
than the white pupils.
Out Of upwards 'of 500 manufacturers
it was found that only eighty.three
employed negro labor in any capacity.
The reasons urged against thom is
that they are less reliable ana are
lazy and unsteady, neglecting their
work for trivial reasons,
The investigation shows that the
negro's progress is not retarded by
race prejudice, as most Of the trades
unions accord him equal rights with
his white colaborer.

The Morning Session.

St. Louis, July S.-Chairman Clark arr rived at ten minutes after 10 o'clock and was received with few handclaps. Twen- ty minutes later the delegates were in their seats. No word had been received from the resolutions committee, and Chairman Clark dispatched messenger to learn when it would be ready to re- port.
 Private advices were to the effect that 1t would be several hours before the re- port would be prepared. and the pros poets for short session grew stronger. One of the secretaries called through 8 megaphone, "The band will please play Home, Sweet Home.'"
 There was a wild cheer from the weary perspiring delegates as the familiar strain foated out on the air. Anything with the word home seemed to please greatly for the cheers were repeated a few min- utes later when My Old Kentucky Home was rendered.

Michigan came next and her great blue banner, instead of falling into the parade of states was borne up the steps of the platform behind the chair mans desk where It was held high and waved wildly to and fro.
 The delegates tore their state emblems from the poles, and carrying them high over head, tramped around the hall again and again, cheering frenziedly.

NUMEROUS CANDIDATES ARE
 NAMED FOR THE PRESIDENCY
 DURING AN ALL NIGHT SESSION
NO AGREEMENT REACHED
 ABOUT VICE PRESIDENCY

[ formerly attorney general to Prey 2 ( Cleveland's cabinet, and John R. NJ o n, proprietor of the Cincinnati E ,S'ier, have both been discussed in e Q .tion with the second place on the z (, but no determination has been ID to pre- sent either of them.
 Various states intend to D. t favorite sons for the nomination, but M lether they will be able to gather any strength from other sections of the country appears problematieal The leaders may be able to agree on candidate before the com vention convenes tomorrow, but 1t now looks as if the ballots must decide who will fill the second place on the national ticket.
 The western men have secured quite a large number of delegates to support former Senator George Turner of Wash ington.
 During the day Senator Charles S. Gull person of Texas was mentioned, but he quickly stated that his name could not he used in connection with the place.

St. Louis, July s.-Great uncertainty still exists concerning the vice presidential nomination. The same candidates which have heretofore been mentioned are still mentioned, and some are being pushed with a great deal Of earnestness.
 No one man has yet been singled out by the leaders and large delegations to be supported for the second place. There seems to be desire to select one from Illinois, Indiana or Ohio if possible.
 Continued efforts have been made to se- cure the consent of Marshall Field of Chi cago to allow the use of his name, but so far without result. In Indiana there are two men mentioned-John w. Kern and Benjamin F. Shvley.
 The delegation was called to meet after the adjournment of the convention to- night to decide whether or not the state shall present d candidate, and if so, which of the two men will receive the support of the delegation. Ohio men are also in doubt whether a candidate shall be pre- sennted from that state. Judson Harmon,

Wabash to Reach Tide Water.

BALTIMORE, Md, Dec. 19.-The
opening today of the newly construct
ed line from Cherry Run to Hancock,
Nd, marks the completion of one more
step in the plans of the Wabash rail-
road to reach tide-water. The new
line forms partial connection between
the Western Maryland and West Vir-
ginia Central, both Gould lines. But
two small stretches of railroad, both
now under construction, are lacking to
bring the Wabash into Baltimore. The
completion of the new system, in addi-
ton to affording the Wabash an out
let from the west. will result in open
ing up a new section of West Virginia,
rich in coal mines, lumber forests and
other natural resources.

Mrs. Chadwick's Operations Affect the

1T is impossible to describe" he
continued, the shock the people sus-
tanned. When you consider what po-
sition bank holds in a town of that
size, you may be able to realize what
calamity it is when it is wiped out.
Oberlin college is far from being a
wealthy institution and it's pupils are
in many cases working their way or
are living on modest sums received
from home. AS every one thought
that President Beckwith's judgment
was to be trusted, most of the deposits
were in his bank. Imagine the state Of
feeling here if some bank that held
all the Students resources should

ations.
considered. 1t is what may be called
a residence town where persons OF
culture live. Although they are pros
porous, the loss of their savings in
some cases will be irreparable. Farm
ers through all that section also had
their deposits there.
THE peculiar thing about the stu
alton is the fortitude with which the
people meet their losses. One might
think that in the face Of such a calam-
ity the only conversation would be
about the losses and the scandal. 1t
is exactly the opposite. You scarcely
hear the matter mentioned, but you
can tell by the long faces that the blow
was a severe one. The affair may ap-
pear as a sensational romance to the
outside world, but it is a present mat
ter with them.
HThe college itself did not lose any
thing. Shortly before the exposures
the trustees had, through President
Beckwith. lent $4,000 to Mrs. Chad
wick and she had promised a dona-
ton of $4,000. Before the exposures
were made the college had transferred
the notes without liability, and so
lost nothing.

the bank was, I might say that

IN TANGLE OVER INSURANCE
Judge May Decide Who Gets Money
From Three Cornered Policy Benefit.

WHITE PLAINS, N. Y, Dec o.
Surrogate Silliman has a legal puzzle
to solve in the question as to which
of three women victims of the Gen
eral Slocum disaster died first as each
had life insurance policy payable to
the other, and who is entitled to the
money.
The heirs are going to contest for
a share of the estates.
The victims were Mary Hagenbuch
er, Fannie Irwin and Julia Dunn. Mary
made her policy for $1,000 payable to
Fannie, and in case the latter died be-
fore the former, then Mary's heirs were
to get the money. Julia took out "a
policy for $1,000 and named Mary as
her beneficiary, but in case Mary died
before she died, then Julia's heirs
were to be the legatees. Fannie Sc
cured similar policy payable to Julia,
but in the event of her death before
Fannie, the latter's heirs were to in
herlt the amount of the policy

Mrs. Chadwick's Dupe Demands Pun.
ishment of Her Co -conspirator.
CLEVELAND, Dec. 22.-For the first
time since Cassie l.. Chadwick was ar
rested she has ceased to be the CEN
trail figure in the great Chadwick con-
spiracy.
That there was conspiracy is now
almost a certainty and the deeper one
goes into it the more evidence is found
against a certain New York lawyer
who has figured conspicuously in Mrs
Chadwick's affairs.
1t was crystallized when poor old
man Beckwith, in dramatic appeal
to the grand jury, cried aloud:
Gentlemen, 1 am an old man. and
nv life ends in dishonor. 1 give my
self freely into your hands, and if the
state of Ohio thinks I owe it anything
| am willing to pay it, but, you must
punish the sneaking scoundrel who
helped betray me. He is worse than
the woman he served
1t is not unlikely that an indictment
will be found, Also against DR.. Chad
wick for conspiracy.
Sensational Testimony.
Here is the sensational part Of
Beckwith's testimony. He said:
IT is a story of the most damnable
conspiracy ever Matched, but the worst
the arch conspirator, has SO played his
part that it may be difficult to bring
him to justice.
When Mr.. Spear and l became so
uneasy that we demanded some assur-
ance Of Mrs. Chadwick, she had US up
to her house to meet this New York
lawyer who, she said, was a direct
representative of Andrew Carnegie.
Before she brought him into the par
lor and introduced us to him she told
him what she wanted us to say to him,
and what questions we were to ask
him.
Now. gentlemen she said, smiling
sweety, Il will leave you alone. /

that you may feel perfectly free to ask

of course we asked the questions
she told us to, and, of course. just as
she had planned and expected. we
asked him other questions. She told
him the stories that she told us, at
least some of them, and this scoundrel
was ready for us. He had been re-
hearsing in one room while we were

sobbed for several minutes. She beg

rated US for what we had done, and
then swore us over to secrecy once
more. OF course, we were poor, silly
