Reuort of Grand Jury.

Reference was made in the Gazette
Yesterday to the report of the grand jury
of the Corporation Court and a synopsis
published. The following is the full
text Of the report:
w agre, LON evidence obtained from
the police force and Others that there are
too many licensed barrooms in our city ;
that some of the p%roprietors are un-
worthy of the privileges extended them,
being themselves dissipated and com
bined together in protecting criminals
harboring lawbreakers, and defeating
the ends Ofjustice also permitting their
premises to be a resort for dissslute and
idle persons of both sexes, res ulting IN
unseemly conduct, drunken quarrels,
serious injury, and even murders from
the use of firearms and, furthermore,
they are a great annoyance to other citi-
zens that own or occupy adjoining prop
critics or have business in the neighbor-
mood of such resorts, who. we feel, are
Justly entitled to the protection OF the
courts. We are informed that some OF
these licensed barroOms give serious con-
Germ and much trouble to the police de-
partment and bring much sorrow and
shame to our people and unnecessary ex-
pense to the Commonwealth. In view
of these facts we respectfully suggest the
reyoking of the license to William
Wade. corner Of Columbus and Wolfe
street and that H. V. Kelly, George
Baier. and Deane Cook be severely re-
primanded and warned" The jury also
reported that the Opera House is not
properly safeguarded against danger of
fire or panic and suggested that the
proper authorities take up the matter at
once, and that the public school build
ings also be inspected and improved by
the city engineer. The jury further re-
ported that they were unable to get any
information about the shooting of John
RYAN.

DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COM
MITTEE.

St. Louis, July 6, is the place and
time the democratic national committee
selected for holding the next national
convention of their party. The COM
mittee, after sitting all day, took the
vote on the place for holding the cen
v~ention and to the surprise OF almost
everyone, including the members of the
committee themselves, on the second
ballot voted for st. Louis. Reports
from Chicago as to e&tortionate hotel
rates and the late fire frightenedthe south
ern delegates and they voted for st.
Louis.
Late in the afternoon, when voting be-
gan. it became plain that the Mound
CITY led. The first ballot stood: st.
Louis, %; Chicago, 20; New York, b.
New York's strength went TO the leading
candidate for convention honors, and on
the second ballot st. Louis had % votes
to C~hicago's 81.
The general programme of the nation
al committee meeting was along lines
understood to be favored by Mr.. Cor
man. The test vote in the District OF
| Columbia case indicated the strength oil
the MARYLAND Senators and it was only
by the adoption of compromise cour'e
that particular emphasis of this fact was
avoided. The decision as to the place
of meeting and the time determined up
on werein accordance with Mr.. German
ideas, and the impression last night was
that his influence was stronger than thai
of any other man in shaping the pre-
gramme.
VIM. J. Bryan, when the committee
had concluded its labors, appeared, bu
his visit was without any apparent pollt
ical significance. He did not come t.
the hotel until after the committee had
about concluded its business. He wa
warmly greeted by the members OF tn
committee, and invited a number o
them to call on him at his hotel in tb.
evening and hold a conference wit
Chairman Jones at the Shoreham.
