On the opening of the Criminal Court this morning Judge Cox sentenced the youth, Victor McCrear$, to one year lessu day in jail and a fine of #100 on his ples of guilty of manslaughter entered yesterday. The indictment charged him with the murder of Arthur C. Vandeventer by striking him with 2 billiard cue in pool room on February 22 last. Judge Cox suid that he had reflected on the evidence and was satisfied that the accused had no intention to inflict fatal injury or to do more than to knock the deceased down. The instrument—the billiard cue—while in the hands of le-bodied man might be regarded a4 a deadly instrument, cout searcely be considered such in the hands of the Prisoner. There appeared to be some provo- cation for the blow, but the witnesses did not r the words, and the defendant claimed that he bad been threatened. He was satisfied that Af the ease had been tried by jury the verdict would have been accompanied by a recom- mendation to mercy, and he was not inclined tosend him to the penitentiary. pc Honest, but He Will Drink.

He works in the houses of all the big people and I keeps him ‘cause he's honest,” “But he drinks?” queried the court. “He certainly does,” answered witness, “and he goes in bad compeny. No later than yester- day T told him that bed company would get him in jail He gets drank every Saturday night sure as he is paid off.” “Why don't you pay him Monday morning after he begins work?” asked the judge. “Then I'd have to watch him all day,” an- swered Ware. “Bat, Judge,” added. witgess, ‘Jim certainly won't steal, and you cam ffust him anywhere and with anything except a bottle of whisky.” Policemen Trainor and Sutton gave evidence against Jim and the court required him to give bonds the sum of 20 or stand committed for one mouth. sae See In Behalf of Juror Cooper's Family. ‘The following subscriptions for the benefit of 14] “chapel exercise” Wednesday noon.

It is possible that the action of the movers of the May convention in New York may make fatile all the efforts of the Cleveland people outside of that state, The conviction has become very general at ‘Washington that Mr. Cleveland will not permit his name to go before the national. convention if Mr. Grace's conyention. adopts such a course ‘as would place the Cleveland people hopelessly in opposition to the regular democratic organ- ization. ‘The understanding is that if the May conven- tion goes much further than to merely make an earnest protest aguinst the manner in which the | other February convention was called and held {| his ‘candidacy. Barring the danger he runs from injudicious action of rome of his friends in New York, it is ved that Cleveland is in better generally belie pe for the convention than it was expected he would be.

Mr. Blount of Georgia said to a Stan re- porter today that he thought it evident that there was an overwhelming demand from dem- ocrate outside of New York for the nomination of Cleveland. He did not think this could be overcome except by very determined opposi- tion in New York, and it was doubtful, whether that could prevent his nomination. “This is not due to hero worship,” Mr. Blount declared, “but to the fact that the democrats of the country are bound to make tariff reform the all-absorbing issue of the campaign, and the movement.

It Was Decided to Again Ask Mr. Blaine to Be a Candidate, According to a Detroit afternoon paper it was definitely decided at the republican conference in that city to draw Secretary Blaine into the Presidential race. As scon as Gen. Clarkson rerches New York he will proceed directly to Washingtoy, where a secret conference will be held with Secretary Blaine, and an effort will be made. to have him consent to make the run. ‘The paper adds: “In case Blaine consents to be nominated as for second place. Iso decided at last night's conference. In case nothing will in- duce Secretary Blaine to rescind his determina- tion not to become a presidential candida Alger will be pushed for the head of the ticke by the entire anti-Harrison contingent all over the country.

There are excellent reasons for the belief that Mr. Hill no longer entertains the expectation that he will be nominated by the democrats at Chicago. It is believed that he will _xtay in the fight for the purpose of killing Cleveland if possible, but that the sanguine spirit which has possessed him so long has vanished. The Cleveland men have generally become convinced that if Cleveland ‘is not ted he will get no support from Mr. Hill during the presidential campaign, th sh Se EOS REVENUE CUTTER SERVICE. Secretary Tracy Makes a Strong Argument Favoring the Transfer. Today Secretary Tracy appeared before the House naval committee and made a strong argu- ment in favor of the transfer of tho revenue marine service to the navy. The Secretary pre- sented the case fully from his standpoint to the committee and gave at length his reasons why the transfer should be made. He also made an argument in rebuttal to that made by the opponents of the measure and explained the benefis that would accrue to both the navy and the revenue marine by the proposed legislation. The point of the Secretary's argument was that the transfer would give naval officers opportunities to fa- miliarize themselves with our consts by service on cutters, which they could not get by duty on sea-goin , and that it would result in great saving from an economic standpoint to the government. Under-the present condition of promotion in the navy the Secretary stated it was seldom that an officer got command of a ship until he was nearly fifty years of age, and by that time he had toa certain exient fost confidence in himeclf, By the transfer some ensigns and lieutenants would immediately have commands, anda means would be provided to givea number of officers duty at sea who cannot now have that service for lack of ships. Not more than one-third of the officers of the navy could now be employed on sea-going ships, ‘the Secretary stated, even when all the vessels under ion were completed. ‘The Secretary thought the objections raised against the measure were fy sentimental and did not believe it wi demoralize the young officers, as had been stated, any more ‘than duty on receiving ships, detached duty or other service not [rig tact in coneludin, argument tl 3 stated that he still adhered to his former: deels- rations favoring the bill. Indirectly he administered a severe rebuke to certain naval officers who have en- gaged in the effort to defeat the bifl by remark- m that he felt it necessary to address the com- tee in support of the meagure, lest the mem- bers should be imy with the belief that ertain arguments made before it by bureau officers of the Navy Department were made with his approval or consent. pncetitte ase Gen.
