News of Fire in Torpedo Works at
 Cronstadt Causes Excitement.

St. Petersburg. June 30.-As a re- suit of the receipt of news of fire, which took place at the torpedo works at Cronstadt last night, this city was tonight filled with the widest rumors, including one to the effect that the Peterhoff palace had been blown up.
 The damage at Cronstadt was con- fined to the torpedo mechanism shops, which were almost wholly destroyed, together with twenty Whitehead tor pedoes. Five of the torpedoes had war heads attached and they exploded, which added to the fire and the ex- citement. A considerable quantity of oil stored in the works was also burned. An alarm was given in time to prevent loss of life and more seri- ous loss of property
 The authorities do not attach seri- ous importance to the accident and say that the works will soon be able to resume full time.

St Paul, Minn., June 30-The state republican convention held two short sessions and ajourned until o'clock tomorrow
 The leaders had been in conference since last evening trying to devise a plan whereby the numerous contests might be settled with as little friction as possible, and it was finally deter mined to allow Chairman Clapp ap- point a credentials committee of ff- teen, seven members to represent the Dunn interest, seven the Collins ad- herents and one the Eddy candidacy, and to adjourn the convention until this committee had acted
