HOT WORDS THE HOUSE MR. GLADSTONE CONFIDENT. LAKE SHORE TRAINS MOVING THE 8IRIKIN0 SWITCHMEN OVERAWED BT THE TICKET HADE UP their best efforts towards putting a second Western man on the ticket. THE TORPEDO KINO BETWEEN TWO FIRES. This state of affairs puts the torpedo king in an awkward predicament.

If he should favor Davies he loses Montooth's strength. If he sup poris Montooth, being the last to be nominated be brings the entire force of the slate against him. Dr. Roberts, although the first on the ground. Is claiming nothing except the northwestern delegation, which, he says, will stand by him to the last.

On the other hand Montooth announces that the same delegates belong to him, and that if he is defeated they will stand by the oandidate that stood by him. Colonel Quay remarked to day that he did not see how Montooth could get the Allegheny Valley without the help of Dr. Roberts, and it is significant that most of Quay's closost friends are talking Roberts and his bank account. In the meanwhile Davies walks around the Lochiel corridor with a complacent smile on his face, saying: "I think I shall be nominated, unless there is some big combination formed. Even if they do that I can combine as well as the best ot them, and have more delegates to combine than any of them." To night it looks as if Montooth has the hurrah and Davios the delegates.

The Montooth Club, of Allegheny, seventy strong, will arrive early to morrow morning, with a baud of music and shouts for their candidate. Accompanying them will be Chris Mageo's Amorious Club, about one hundred and fifty in number, and the Young Men's Republican Tariff Club, prepared to see that Montooth gets fair play. GRIMESON STILL HOPEFUL. Colonel Grimeson reached the scene of action this morning and Colonel Norris to night. The former said that there was every probability ot the slate not having a walk over in all respects, 'A Aa Interview With the Toons; Colored Han Aoeused of Murdering His Wife's Father.

Speoial Dispatch to The Times. Newport, June 88. The trial of Allen W. Dorsey and Maria, his wife, for the murder of Benjamin Burton, Mrs. Dormer's father, began here to day.

Mr. Burton, who was once the wealthiest colored man In Newport, was found dead In his kitchen last September with a bul. let hole through bis heart and another through his brain.

It was supposed to be mlue because it was a Philadelphia make." What about Emily's confession 7" he was asked. Well, she may believe It She Is a hysterical, nndeveloDsd girl and bas been under the control oi her aunt, who is a woman of great will power and magnetism such a one as can set a whole congrega tion shout ng during a meelng of her race.

There was a large crowd present. Maggie McDermott, the accused, was seated within the railings, between Mrs.

E. J. Downs and a relative. She took a deep interest in tbe testimony, bat was not disconcerted at the crowd's stare. Dr.

Taylor, who attended Mrs. Loulnger during her confinement, was the first witness, lie said "On April 17 1 was called to attend Mrs. Loulnger in her confinement. I called from tbat time until June 10, with the exception of four days. About two weeks after the birth ot the child an attack of Intermittent or malarial fever set la and tbe patient became quite low and weak.

I prescribed Fowler's solution of arsenic and water, In equal proportions, to be taken In doses of eight drops, being equivalent to four drops of the arsenical solution and three of water, three times dally. The bottle contained enough for forty five doses, or fit teon days' supply, and I was surprised to find tbe bottle had been refilled In my absence from the drug store. This medicine was given from June 4 until June 7, as was prescrlbod. Between tbe 4th and 7th the patient frequently vomited after taking the doses, wbich were supposed to be too strong for one In her weak condition. Then the arsenic potassium, which is supposed to be Fowler's solution, was abandoned.

I endeavored to find the cause of the vomiting, bul I could not account for It. The medicine was renewed four times and without my knowledge, and the fourth time, when the bottle came to my store, I happened to be there myself. I asked the messenger who sent him for it aud the reply was Miss Maggie McDermott. I then told the messenger that Miss Maggie couldn't have it until I saw her. At this time 1 was not aware that the bottle was refilled but twice.

I bad a talk with the clerk and was surprised to find that It bad been filled other times. One day before Mrs. Loulnger's death Maggie McDermott told me that she took tbat medicine two or tbree times, but for me not to tell Mr. Loulnger. I took the boitle out of my pocket and said to the nurse I want to know what has been done with allot this.

What did you take it for 7 She answered: 1 Bocause I felt belter after using it' 'Did you take it I asked. She replied: 'I The nurse told me that she gave Mrs. Loulnger chloral during the night I asked her where she got it. She said tbat she found it in the bouse. I said 4 That is not so.

I see now what bas been making Mrs. Loulnger vomit I then said to the nurse 'Do you know what Is in that taking up Fowler's solution. She said: I then said to Mr. Loulnger: 'I'll keep this bottle. You get another nurse and probably your wife will get I also said: 'Don't let your wife and children have anything that this woman it Mrs.

Louinger had taken all the four bottles she would have swallowed one sixth of a grain of arsenic at a dose. A post mortem examination was held by Dr. J. H. Pugb, Dr.

Roberts aud myself. I found the body well preserved. There was no discoloration ot the anterior portion of the body, except In tbe lower portion of the abdomen. The stomach was much distended with gas aud contained a email amount of fluid. The heart was healthy and of normal size, and no evidence ot dropsy.

I gave a certificate of death resulting from gastro lnterltis, which means Inflammation of tbe stomach and small Intestines, such as would be produced in arsenical poisoning." This closed Dr. Taylor's testimony. He was on the stand for two hours and twelve minutes. Dr. Pugh was next called and corroborated the statement of Dr.

Taylor. Tbe drug clerk then testified that he had given the nurse tbe medicine. Dr. Shlppen Wallace, the chemist who analyzed the stomach, will testify to dny. HAROLD M'MAXUS' SCHEME.

COBB AND LAIRD 8H0W A 8TE0N0 DESIRB FOB A SLUGGING HATCH.

Other Members Interfere to Prevent the Fiery Statesmen From Using More Dangerous Weapons Than Their Tonajnea Opposed to Chinese Immigration. Special Dispatch to Tbi Times. Washington, June 28. There was a lively scene in the House this afternoon during the discussion of the sundry civil bill. Messrs.

Cobb and Laird indulged in personalities until the altercation very noarly resulted in a resort to blows. As it was, it was simply disgraceful. The subject under discussion was the allowances for special agents of the Land Ofiloe. The other day Mr. Laird made a vigorous attack upon Commissioner Sparks.

To day when tho question arose the debate opened out pretty lively. Two hours was assigned as the limit, and Mr. Cobb, ot the committee on publio lands, occupied about an hour of that time. During his speech he exoorlated the land thieves and General Land Office ring and showed from reports of speoial agents and others that the government had been outrageously defrauded. Among other reports he read and commented severely on one particularly, whioh involved Representative Laird, of Nebraska, his relatives and friends.

Laird moved over on the Democratic side and occupied a seat a little ways off from Cobb as soon as the latter began spenking. Laird evidently know something of what was to come, for ha was very restive and toward the close frequently interjected remarks. When Cobb got down to Laird he was pretty well worked up. Reading from the report ha was soon surrounded by members anxious to hear every word of the controversy. Laird every now and then said emphatically, sotto vooe, "That is not true," "That is false also, referring to the statements of the report.

He was fairly beside himself with anger. Cobb was not in much better temper. The hammer out him off in the middle of the report on Laird, There was a scramble for the floor. Laird fairly yelling. He domanded "that paper" and Cobb nitched it at him as if he would brain the Ne, braska man.

Through the interference of friends Cobb got more time and, taking the report back, Began again. FISTS SHAKEN ON BOTH Laird made some threatening remark and shook his head at Cobb ominously. The latter shouted that be was not afraid of the gentleman from Nebraska. "I don't care what you are afraid of," rO' torted Lnlrd; "don you threaten me." Don't you threaten me," cried Cobb, froth' ing at tho mouth. "Don't you threaten me," again said Mr.

Laird. In the meantime friends of both men got a lit tie nearer and the quarrol ended with a shak ing of fists on both sides. Whon Laird got the floor, as he did almost immediately, he entered an emphatic denial of each and every one of the material allegations contained in the charges. The scene was exceedingly lively and caused a good deal ot excitement on the floor and in the gnl lerles, and considerable comment subsequently. CHINESE IMMIGRATION.

What time the House had to spare from this wrangle was mainly given up to the disoussion of Morrow's amendment to increase to 10,000 the appropriation to meet the expenses incurred pndor the Chinese immigration act and by add ing a proviso requiring the Secretary of the Treasury to cause to be prepared preliminary and return certificates identifying more particu larly than at present the Chinese to whom thoy are granted. The amendment was adopted. The whole subjeot of Chinese immigration was raked over in the debate. Morrow declaring that the prohibitory law is being constantly violated and that the oondition of the Pacific Coast, so far as Chinese labor is concerned, is worse than ever. He wanted absolute prohibition of Chinese immigration and the repeal of the Burlingame treaty.

Belmont and Rice Insisted that the foreign affairs committee had done its duty in the matter, but thoy repelled Morrow's suggestion lor the repeal of the xturlingame treaty. A DEAD LOCK IN CONGRESS. The Senate Insists on the Ocean Hall Sub sidy Other Disagreements. Special Dispatch to The Times. Washington.

June 28. The dead lock between the two houses on the post office appropriation bill still continues, without any immediate prospect of its being broken. Neither house Is disposed to recede from its position regarding the Senate amendment providing 1800,000 for a mail steamship subsidy. The House refuses to concur and the Senate has repeatedly Insisted upon tbls amendment. Tbe latter, after a protracted dls, cussion, took another vote to day, still Insisting upon Its amendment.

The vote stood 83 to 13, six Democrats voting with the Republicans In favor of tbe subsidy. They were Brown, Call, Eustls, Payne, Pugh and Gorman. The principal speeches In bebalf of the subsidy were made by Pugh and Hale. The latter said he wished tbe President would give leas time to tbe examination of a pension for some poor oia sorner ana stuuy mis question 01 me great neid that is open to the American poople for cultivating trade with Central and South America. Beck, who waa one or tbe conrerrees, said the House would not recede from Its rejection ot the subsidy clause and If tbe Senate Insisted It would be responsible for the failure of the bill.

If the two bouses cannot come together on thia amendment, either to continue It In the bill or strike It out, the bill will necessarily fall and tbe Post Office Department will be without appropriations for the ensuing year, unless provided for by a special aot continuing the present appropriations. The legislative and river and harbor appropriation bills were reported to the Senate to day, Mr. Allison glvlug notice that he would move to morrow to take up the former. It is thought the bill can be disposed of In a day. The Senate committee has stricken out of this bill the provision for the publication of the Records qf the Rebellion." This was done because It is alleged that in the compilation of these records a discrimination is made In favor of material to ooramond or eulogize the Lost Cause, while material against it Is suppressed.

The purpose Is to give the committee an opportunity to Investigate tbe charge. There will probably be a bitch between tbe two bouses on this actiou of tbe Seuate. If the provision Is lett out of the bill It will at least temporarily delay the compilation and publication of tbls valuable work. Elgbt volumes have already been published and when finished It will consist of over ninety volumes. Tbe Senate committee have also restored the salaries of certain employes, which were cut down by the House.

These changes may be the occasion of a conference committee, whioh may Indefinitely delay the passage of the bill. The Seuate committee have greatly Increased tbe appropriations In tbe river and harbor bill, which will also produce differences between the two houses, to be adjusted by a committee of conference. A BLOODTHIRSTY ANARCHIST. Gorsuch's Utterances to a Small Crowd In a Kensington Hall, In response to an advertisement of a lecture upon Tbe Chicago Outrage, and How Anarchists Should be Treated," about fifty persons assembled in Ar belter Hall, 180 West Girard 'avenue, last night. The lecturer was tbe distinguished Anarchist, W.

G. Gorsuch. Ha began by saying that he would neither condomn nor defend tbe An archists of Chicago lor their action In the recent troubles, and made no further reference to the first part of his subject. "To day," he continued, many a poor blacksmith would make a good poet, many a wearied Iron worker a good draughtsman and artist and many a poor physician would be happier and do better at tlnsmlthlng. Rent, proflt and Interest are legal, so was slave trading.

Communism gives each an opportunity to develop his peculiar talent. It is rampant capitalism which throws men out of work. If ten thousand poor wretches are ground under tbe Juggernaut wheels of capitalism there Is no protest, but let one ot tbe cherished minions of power and wealth go to tbe grave and a universal wall rends the skies. We anarchists believe that crime Is hideous whan disguised by and committed under the sanction of the law. We believe that It Is equally bad to kill legally as to kill outside the law's dominion.

We are said to be bloodthirsty and lawless, but we do not tnirat lor ine gore oi capitalists, capitalists were born and therefore ought to exist, but they bare not the right to lead useless or mischievous lives. Our good friend Herr Most was put lu a New York dungeon because the fools there didn't understand blm. Revolution against the system that despoils and renders homeless and hungry tbe poor must come. You who have the Gatllng guns and rides, don't shoot I If you do, take care lest the one dynamite bomb of Chicago becomes twenty." A disoussion was to follow the lecture, but the proprietor refused to permit the meeting to go on. "There aro six or seven Anarchist associations in Philadelphia," Mr.

Gorsuch said, "and an Anarchist organ Is soon to be established here." A Lancaster Han Bangs Himself. Special Dispatch to The Times. Lanoasteb, June 28. Tbe dead body of William W. Schum was found hanging to an arbor In tbe yard of his home, on Water street, late last night.

Mr. Gladstone this afternoon addressed the electors of Liverpool In Hengler's Circus. Five thousand people were present and the utmost enthusiasm prevailed. He said the enthusiasm in favor ot home rule surpassed anything he had witnessed during his life. Despite the long purses of his opponents he looked forward to the result of the elections with confidence.

It was true that he denounced tbe Nationalists in 1881, but It was because he thought they were In tbe wrong. He supported them now because ha thought and knew they wore In the right He now proposed to give a statutory Parliament to Ireland, to deal exclusively with Irish affairs. His opponents pretended that such a grant would be the breaking down ot Irish allegiance to tbe Imperial Parliament, but their allegiance bad been given grudgingly and halfheartedly heretofore and sometimes it had not been given at all. The Liberals wished to destroy that sort of allegiance and make Irishmen revere the Imperial Parliament like Scotchmen and Englishmenfrom tbe heart and mind. He stoutly denied tbat they were refusing Ulster privileges which they were giving elsewhere.

On the contrary, they were willing to listen to any suggestion on behalf of Ulster. They were willing to make exceptional proposals if they were likely to be adopted. Again, they were told tbat tbe land purchase project meant taking British tax payers' money. It meant nothing of the kind. It was one thing to spend their money and another thing to Invest It Jt be thought tbat land purchase meant more than Investment he would be no party to the scheme.

He denied, bowever, tbat the home rule bill aud the land purchase bill were inseparable. He reminded his auditors tbat home rule was a question ot classes against tbe masses. The Liberal party, he said, was, as a rule, not supported by dukes, 'squires, clergymen of the Established Church, officers of the army aud so forth. Wberever tbere was a highly privileged, publicly endowed profession, almost every member of that profession was an anti Liberal. But from tbe legal and medioal professions, which were now open, the Liberals received a fair share of support The question was whether tba masses were able, constitutionally, to overbear the classes, because It had always been shown tbat wberever truth.

Justice and humanity were concerned the masses wore In the right and the classes in tho wrong. He would show this by reference to Lord Randolph Churchill, whose name he had not mentioned before during the canvass and which he did not suppose he would have occasion to mention again. He bad been told that Lord Randolph Churchill had had a good deal to say about him, but he (Mr. Gladstone) bad not taken the trouble to Inquire. It was very dim cult to describe Churchill, but If he could out out one half of bis qualities be might mako with the other half a valuable and distinguished publio servant Churchill, however, admitted that the classes might go wrong, that the Pall Mall clubs might go wrong, but that the people never erred.

Mr. Gladstone hoped they would not err on this occasion. Parliament, he said, had beeu paralyzed because of the Irish question, and it would remain parnlyzod unless some measure of Justice were passed. Ireland had struggled to bring her case to tbe front and had succeeded. She was now backed not only by her own members, but by a vast number of English people.

He believed that the measures proposed would tend to promote the growth of prosperity in Ireland. The Liberals were told that the rusult would be that England would have to hold Ireland by force, but this she was doing now. He hoped to bold her In future by love. Cheers. Mr.

Gladstone concluded, amid loud cheers, with a vigorous denunciation of the manner in which the act of union was effcoted. Henry Ward Beecher was on the platform while Mr. Gladstono was speaking. The Regent of Bavaria Installed. Munich, June 28.

After she bad asked tha woman attendant to keep the child for a few minutes she hurried out, leaving the baby on the counter. Pinned to Its white dross was a pathetto note, written by the mother, in which she said that the father ot the child had ruined and then deserted her. The writer of the note said that she and hor baby were homeless, the doors of her parents' house having been closed against their dishonored daughter.

The Blot Act Read and the Wheels Begin to Turn One Clubbing Sufficient for the Mob A Suspect Arrested for Derailing the Hall Train. Chicago, June 28. The Lake Shore Railway Company to day, by the display of a strongly armed and numerous force of police and deteotives, executed its deter mination to move its trains in spite of the strik ing switchmen and their sympathizers. At eight o'clook this morning the Chief of Police ot the town of Lake came into the switching yards with 100 men, including special officers and Pinker ton deteotives, at his back, and cleared out the strikers and idlers.

Clubs were drawn and rushes made at groups hanging about the round house and cars and they were oreed away. In one of these encounters Detective Flinn knocked a man down, who was the only person sustain ing any serious injury. As tho detectives moved through the yards they called out All you people must move. Do not congre gate in groups on the tracks or crossings or we will be obliged to take means to disperse you, and we 11 do It. too." The police stationed around Forty third street escorted thirty or more switchmen who had been sent down to take the places of the strikers.

The orowd moved back surlily nnd momen tarily Inoreased In numbers. It showed a dispo sition to fight, but soon after 9 o'clock Billie Pinkerton appeared at the head of one hundred and twenty four of his men, many of them armed with Winchester magazine rifles. The special police carried brooch loading muskets. BEADING THE BIOT ACT. Doputy Sheriff Gleason appeared at Forty first street shortly after ten o'clock, accompanied by six deputies.

This is the first time since the strike began that any of the representatives of the Sheriff have appeared on the ground. The Chief Doputy read the riot act at four points along the line of the Lake Shore Road, between Forty first street and Englewood, and the police and special deputies began to clear the tracks. The orowd moved off quietly after the reading of the riot aot, and up to eleven clock everything remained quiet in the vicinity of the rail road tracks from the city limits as far south as Jtnfriewooa. At this time the police were guarding the roundhouse and tracks and no one was allowed to approach the railroad proporty. The strikers and their adherents were scattered along State street discussing the situation with much excite ment, but prevented from any violence by tho lormiuaoie weapons of tne guards.

TRAINS UNDER WAT. At noon the blockade was broken. The rail road company brought out eight engines and sent six down the road, each having on board a Deputy Sheriff and a squad of men armed with Winchester rifles. These engines were the scouts to see that the tracks and switches were pro tected and ready for the passage of the regular freight trains. At 12.15 a regular engine coupled on to the freight train whioh had been made ready in the yard.

The police stood by with their rifles in readiness for instant use, but the crowd attempted no interference. When everything was in readiness for the start detail of Pinkerton men, armed with rifles, olimbed on tbe engine and the tops of the cars. Their ap pearance gave the scene a warlike look, Just before the train was ready to start a switch engine, to which a caboose was attached and also heavily guarded, steamed onto the main track in front of the Eastern bound train, but the conductor only had orders to proceed to ctoutn unicago. The train reaohed Englewood at 12.20 P. having run the gauntlet of the strikers from Forty third street without molestation.

At the Fifty first street crossing there was a largo orowd of men and boys, who jeered as the train passed by, but offered no violence. The train left Englewood at 12.20 P. M. At 12.50 P. M.

south Chicago was roaohed and no serlons on position had been encountered. There was a large crowd in and about the yards, but a squad oi nyae i nrx ponce prevented even tne semblance of disorder. The train left at 12.25 P. M. and was guarded to the Indiana State line by tne armea specials on ooara.

A second freight train of twenty six loaded freight cars followed the first train, having been made up at Englewood. It had about twentv nruieu special ponce ana rencneu sourn untcago in safety. The railroad officials anticipated no irouDie alter leaving tnat point, unless it should bo at some place bevoad the State line, and a squad of Pinkerton men has gone to that point 10 guara against it. a tnira train was successfully gotten under way and passed South Chicaco without molestation. A freight train from the East has arrived at the Shore yards in the city.

The officials have issued a notice to accept freight without limit. They believe the strike is ended. STRIKERS UNDER ARREST. Of the men arrested by the Hyde Park police for complicity in Saturday's rioting nine have beon balled out, others are refused bail and some are unable to find sureties. Tho police believe they have evidence enough to convict Frank Day, who is under lock and key, for throwing the mail train from the track on Friday night.

The man In tho South Chicago Jail, who gave his name as John E. Sullivan, is Edward Sullivan, who was discharged from the Nickel Plate shops two weeks ago. nearns, who is undor nrrest. Is the engineer who was In charge of the Milwaukee aud St. Paul engine captured by the strikers and used in pursuing the Lake Shore train.

Kearns claims that the strikers placed the muzzles of two revolvers to his hoad and threatened him With death in case of his refusal to do their bid ding. A local paper says that a new stock jobbing scheme has been discovered in connection With the riots. An entornrisinor firm of New York stook brokors, since the strike bogan, has had representatives on the grounds and every attempt by the officers to move a train is reported to the central office. Judge Gresham's Restraining Order. Indianapolis, June 28.

Judge Oresham to day Issued his order upon the bill filed by the Lake Shore Railroad Company In Chicago, praying for an injunction against the striking switchmen. He holds that the averments show a right of action against the strikers, because neither States nor Individuals nor combinations ot Individuals can Interfere with tbe complainant's lawful prosecution of Its business, which Is that of a carrier of Inter State commerce, and that under the act of 1H75 the Circuit Courts of the United States have concurrent Jurisdiction with State Courts of such controversies. The strikers have no more right to stop or destroy cars containing Imported merchandise to be delivered than to stop or destroy cars containing munitions of war or troops ot tbe United States. Judge Greaham thinks that it Is tbe duty of the Federal Court to exert such authority as It possesses to protect the complainant. The motion for an injunction against the strikers will be heard at Chicago on July 7, but an order is lssuea to restrain tnem tn tne meantime from unauthorized interference with the business of the road.

Strikers Evloted to Starve. Graph Creek, 111., June 28. The miners who went on strike May 1 are now being turned out like so many cattle In tbe woods. They struck for the Pittsburg scale of seventy five cents a ton, but offered to arbitrate. The company declined to permit outside interference, but placed a strong guard over Its property and notified the strikers to vacate tbe bouses.

The men sought relief In law, but the Court decided that tbe leases were valid and the houses must be vacated. Last week the work of forcible eviction was begun. Tbe strikers, with their fami lies, are camped In tbe woods, end subsist on the pittance doled out to them by the union. They number about one thousand persons. The Claim to the Harlem Commons.

The Republican Convention to Nominate Bearer by Acclammatiori. DAYIES TO HAVE THE SECOND PLACE Bonis for Auditor and Stewart for Secretary of Internal Affairs. ROBERTS ALSO ON THE SLATE A Strong Tariff Plank in the Platform The Prohibition Question.

Special Dispatch to The Times. Harrisburo, June 28. The candidates for the different places on the State ticket have put in an appearance early, and having established their headquarters In con bdIcuous places are ready to receive their friends, Torpedo Roberts was the early bird, and with a well organized force is more tnan confident tnat he will go back to Crawford with the wreath of Congressman at Large. Montooth is also here, young and frosh, and thinks with a united delegation on the Lieutenant Governorship, he can win the second place on the ticket. Davies is also here to contest the second place with Montooth, waving the oriflamme of the old ticket and vlotory In 1886.

Urlmeson, having scoured the Commonwealth from the Delaware to the Ohio for the Auditor General ship, is confident of beating Norris. Bam Loach turns up from Schuylkill with sound and fury over the Secretaryship of Internal Affairs. Judge Klrkpatrick, of Allegheny, Is here as a dark horse. Colonel D. C.

Keller, of Berks, is here and will be followed by a large delegation of ad miring frionds to morrow, urging him for Secre tary of Internal Affairs. THE TICKET. The nomination of Beaver by acclamation is conceded. The first blood will be spilt on Mbn tooth and Davies. Chris Jlagee will champion the Alleghanian, but Davies has the backing of Quay's instruction, which will be carried out, Korris and Grimeson will have a tilt, but the slate says Norris.

Stowart for Internal Affairs, from present appearances, will go In on the first heat. The oontest over Congressman at Large will depend largely upon Roberts' course on Montooth. Osborne's friends, however, are confident, regardless of othor combinations. He will have the backing of the Northern tier and Eastern counties. Ex Repre sentative Jadwin, having made a oaref ul canvass, in confident of Osborne's suocoss.

The confidence of Dolegate Quay and Chairman Cooper that the convention will get through on Wednesday is suggestive of a very aoourate knowledge of the situation and of the necessary co operation to carry out their plans without any routine or factional dolay. There appears to be no visible opposition to the re election of Cooper to the chairmanship. It is said that Harry Graffln, of Montgomery, will succeed Pierson as secretary. TEMPERANCE AND THE TARIFF. The platform has been a subject of earnest consideration.

It is proposed to make the tariff issue its most prominent feature. The attempt of Carlisle and Morrison to force a free trade bill upon Congress will furnish the material for a vigorous expression of the convictions of the Republican party in favor of protection in its broadest sense. A new resolution will be addod as supplementary to the well worn tariff plea for popular support by demanding the protection of Industry and commerce alike and the passage by Congress of a measure to that end. It will favor State and national legislation to facilitate the settlement of differences between labor and capital by means of arbitration. It will also denounce the importation of pauper labor in competition with American labor and the employment of convict labor.

On the subject of Prohibition there is a division of opinion. There will be a large number of resolutions on the subject Introduced in the convention and referred. Senator Cameron has expressed his opinion that there should bo some definite expression on that subject. It is probable that the plal form will favor the submission of the question to the people on the basis of a constitutional convention. The administration and the Democratic party will come in for a full share of conventional censure.

The soldiors will also receive a resolution of gratitude and pensions. FEARS OF A BROKEN SLATE, Representative Osborne arrived at midnight with a Congressional delegation pointing with pride to the man who carried Pennsylvania by twenty five hundred more than ilaine in 1884. Colonel Norris Is here with forty two Philadel phlans in the pot and a host of friends to draw from. Senator Cameron has sent word that he will be hero to morrow. He will reooive his friends at the old stand.

Generalissimo Quay suggested to night as a complimentary resolution the congratulation of the Senator upon the performance of his duty and the addition of another staunch Republican to the list of the next generation of voters. There is much speculation as to the real motive of Senator Cameron's visit here. The announcement of his presence has given rise to considerable uneasiness among the friends of the diff orent candidates. They fear it means some unexpected combination, and that the slate, which has been so widely announoed, may be sent to the winds and an entirely new one made up. As soon as the Senator arrives there will be a conference among the leaders and the champions of the various candidates, which may result In some change, but is not likely to from present indications.

TO MEET EIS FRIENDS. The apprehension, however, that Senator Cameron is coming here to control matters, is not well founded, as ho repeated again this morning at Washington that his purpose in being in Harrlsburg during the convention is simply to meet his friends, as he sees the names of many of them in the list of delegates, and also many names of persons new to him and he wishes to moot them. The Senator, as long as ho takes an interest in political affairs of the State which he represents, has no intention of falling behind the times. As he remarked "We have a great political fight before us. This is but the beginning of the battle the skirmishing, so to speak, which will precede the contest or 1888.

The underlying sentiment of the active, enterprising people of the country is Republican. A Democratic administration Is an anomaly. It is, perhaps, a valuable experience to the oountry, but it must not be repeated. If we work together it will not be. This is Quay's convention.

He arranged the preliminaries and will work out the detnlls. I am not going to Harrlsburg to interfere, but simply to meet a few and get their view as to the future." Randolph. THE SLATED CANDIDATES. Plain Sailing, With the Exception of Congress man Roberta' Predicament. Special Dispatch to The Times.

Habmsbcbo, June 28. If the machine is to win at the Republican State Convention of Wednesday the tioket will be named in this shape Governor Jakes A. Beaver. Lieutenant Governor William T. Davies.

Auditor General A. Wilson Norris. Secretary ot Internal Affairs Thomas J. Stewart. Congressman at Large William B.

Roberts. General Boavor will be nominated by acclamation and Tom Stowart without practical opposition. The field will fight Davies, Norris and Roberts, with a fair prospect ot defeating the latter. Davies and Norris will probably be nominated on the first ballot, although the few Montooth people who have arrived deolaro that they will give Davies a bard tussle. Thoy claim that thoy oan win on the question of locality and the popularity of their candidate.

The Western end of the State, thoy say, must be ropresontod, and Montooth is the man of all men to give strength to Beaver, whom they think will need good backing. So far as Dr. Roberts' candidacy Is concerned, the Montooth men declare that his delegates must support their candidate as the first Western man to be voted tor. If Montooth is nominated, well and good. If Roberts goes to Davies the Wost will not give him any support.

Otherwise they will be only too happy to give and that there was an even chance of its being beaten. "Mageewill be here," remarked the candidate, and Senator Don will be up from Washington to morrow as a looker on, but" and here the Colonel winked his eye, adding: "You ought to know what that means." Candidate McCamant has been about all day, but his onndidacy is not being taken into serious consideration. It is about conceded that Colonel Tom Stewart will reoeive the Secretary of Internal Affairs nomination with plenty to spare. D. H.

Keller will be on hand to morrow with a strong personal following from Reading, and Sam Losch declares that it is the fljrht of his life and ho will never say die until evorybody throws up their hands and he can count them. While Dr. Roberts is on the slate there is a growing fooling in favor of the renominntion of General E. A. Osborne for Congressman at Large.

He has the support and sympathy of the State Congressional delegation and will divide tlie Philadelphia delegation. Captain John De lany, who has been managing the Osborne enn ss, to day whispers mysteriously of a com bination with Montooth and the latter's frionds will not deny the probability of such a happening. It seems to be woll assurod that an attempt will bo made to break tho slate to morrow, but to night nobody knows exactly how it Is to bo accomplished. Montooth will bear the brunt of the battle at the outset and his suc coss or defeat will dotormine in a groat measure what is to follow. The Montooth, Grimoson and Osborne followers, what thore are of them on the ground, aro very friondly to night.

THE LIQUOR QUESTION. During the day there has been any amount of speculation as to what will and should be done with tho prohibition question. Three propositions are spoken of: One to have a plank inserted submitting tho question directly to the people; a second recommending a re visision of the revenue laws to socure a moderate high license, and the third to rofor the wholo matter to a constitutional convention, it being argued that the need of another convention is among the near possibilities. Colonol Quay, who may be represented in the convention by proxy, to night came out flat footed in favor of putting the question to a vote of the people; that while not committing himself as to prohibition, the people wore the ones to pass upon the question under the system of popular sovereignty. On all othor matters the Colonel was dumb.

THE FIRST PHILADELPHIANS. The city is pretty well filled up, although there are not many dologates on hand. By to morrow night It Is expected that the State capital will be overrun. Chairman Cooper has issued flftoen hundred one cent a mile tickets, none of whioh reached Philadelphia, Pittsburg or the other large places, and does not Include delegations, which made their own terms with the railroad componies. City Chairman Leeds, John Buhl, William Emsley, Magis trate Ahem, David Martin and Hoxio Godwin arrived to night as the advance guard of the Philadelphia delegation.

Leeds will probably give some expression to morrow morning Deiore uoionoi Hastings committee on the re vision of the rules, whose report is not parties larly liked by the oountry people. The convention will be hold in the Opera House and J. K. Billtngsley, of Washington, has been selocted as temporary chairman and Gen eral Louis Wagner, of Philadelphia, as perma nent chairman. Colonel L.

a. Hastings will put Heaver in nomination Judge P. U. Shan non, of Pittsburg, Montooth: L. M.

Hall, of Towanda, Davies; B. F. Eshelman, of Lancaster, Norris; John Cessna, of Bedford, Grime son George N. Corson, of Norristown. 8tewart.

and Colonol Winton, of Crawford, will do the honors for Dr. Roberts. The committee of the Constitutional Convention Association have rooms at the Lochiel and, under the lead ership of Seorotary J. W. M.

Newlin, will endeavor to have the delegates insert a plank in the platform relative to railroad discrimination and to demand the enforcement of constitutional provisions which have fallen into disuse. Boyle Not In the Race. Special Dispatch to The Times. Washington, June 28. Representative Boyle was asked to night about his Gubernatorial aspirations.

He has none, he says. Several papers In Western Pennsylvania had mentioned his name that connection, but he oould not authorize It.
