'The argument that Douglas county man )sin the field Lancaster must support Howe is oeing used for all it 1s worth in the hopes of turning the tide in that direction. It was stated early yesterday that the differ ent ward delegations in the city would ®o into caucus individually last evening or early thiz morning and ¢ach one select their candidates for vlaces on the state and congressional delegations for the convention to ratify. In the event of work of this kind Howe is apt to secure strength, for some of the dele ga- tions are known to be 1o him, although, whenever a delegat is found in which the labor interests are represented, the antagonism tothe Ne maha man is apparent. A la + man on one of the committees appointed for work at the primaries, stated on the street yesterday that labor organizations could not support Mr. Howe, and the cool-headed men in the convention will consider these statements oyer and above all speculations 0 congressional aflairs. w the yurtnay forces rth sraph 1 graphic d sent the several be gocs me Enw a heavy THE SHADOW OF FIELD as an aspirant for the congressional nomi- uation is noticeab) nd it thought that the turn taken in some of the close primary contests wiil be to that gentle- man’s interests, and as he is known to be strong with the country delegations, he may be allowed to bave a delegation for bimself in the congi nal race, espe- cially as the contest is growing of a doubt- ful nature, with a chance of @ man from the state (‘npncl winning the prize. As Mr. Field 15 the only Lancaster man ask- g this honor a great many believe that the county should yive him such endorse ment. O THE LEGISLATIVE CANDIDATES go into the convention largely at sea, ex- cept in the case of R E. Moore for the senate, who exhibited a very pretty picce of diplomacy in avoiding a fight in his ward and who is the only candidate from the city for senatorial” honors. 1f the convention in disposing of the Courtnay contest decides that his ticket was de- feated, it will admit a delegation made up for three scparate candidates from the same waurd, which may breed an in- tercine fight among themsclves, although nbservers state that Mr. Shamp has the best of that delegation. John B. Wright chances are tnought to be materialiy lessened by the tdefoat of Courtnay’s ticket, if itis maintamed, and by the vie- tory of Bernard Dolan n'the First ward. Mr. Raymond is philosoplueally awaiting results. and Mr. Stearnes, who has ke, ,.l aloof from the different ward contests, seems to haveus yet no organized opposi- tion for district attorney. However, wnh Church Howe on the ground and Mr. Field aski; e congressional delega- tion, it loo! as though congressional matters will loom up in the fight over all others, and the amount of wire laying and working that is going bids fair to show un a warm convention to-day.

An old suit_of clothes was filled with bedding and left to de- ceive the not over-vigilant keeper, whose business it is to watch the insane prison- ers.
