Nominations Made by the Republicans and Democrats. PROVIDENCE, R. L, March 14.—The delegates to the Republican State conven- tion nominated candidates for State officers to be chosen at the April election Hon. Charles Warren Lippitt of this ci was nominated for Governor. For the re: of the general officers the incumbents were renominated ’ They ar Edwin R. Allen, Lientenant- Governor; Charles P. Bennett, Secretary of State; Edward C. Dubois, Attorney- General, and Samuel Clark, Treasurer. The platform adopted referred briefly to the present State and national issues and strongly indorses the proposed amend- ment to the State constitution providing for biennial elections and the apportion- ment of the cities by wards for the election of members to the General Assembly.

Where there were no troops there was no | work. The white screwmen held aloof | and preserved a threatening silence, but none made a move which wouid cause the | militia to use force to suppress it.

At the | point where the greatest danger wasap- | prehended Hotchkiss and Gatling guns were unlimbered in such posjtion as they | could be quickly trained up or down the | wharves on advancing mobs.

Oc- casion ed at one point or | another and the police were called @ to | disperse them, which they did without | trouble. Not a shot was fired at any point | nor was there any violence. The negro screwmen went to work without hesitation | wherever troops were stationed. They also started to work at Outhport during the morning, but as neither militia nor police were on duty there they soon abandoned the work, though there was no prospect of trouble. At 5:30 p. M. the screwmen had all fin- ished their day’s labor, and the troops were ordered to report again at 8 o'clock to-morrow morning. The conference of delegates of mercantile bodies resumed its session to-day, but took no action, having practically decided to leave the settlement of the trouble in the Governor’s hands. Discussing the matter this evening, re- | ferring particularly to the calling out of the troops, the Governor said it was very unfortunate that it became his duty to use such harsh measures, but there did not ap- pear to him and to many others any prac- ticable and effective plan to adopt. He re- iterated his statement of yesterday that no | matter what happened he would protect the lives of citizens and commerce at this port at any cost. “This step was decided upon last night late,” said the Governor, “after every phase of the situation had been thoroughly considered by the Police Board and other | bodies. It was almost the unanimous opinion of the board that it was the only | thing to do and it was generally the opinion of all other bodies affected by the disturbing and rioting element. Although everything is now quiet on the levee there is still no assurance of safety felt by the laborer as he goes about his work. Therefore, for the present it is quite neces- sary to keep the soldiers on duty.” “How long do you expect to maintain military vigilance?”’ queried the reporter. “I cannot say, but.as long as may at all seem necessary.”’ Governor Foster is quite unwell and just able to be up, but will remain in the city if his health is no worse until all trouble has subsided. Judge King, in the impeachment pro- ceedings against Mayor Fitzpatrick, to-day decided in his favor on three charges, up; P AN AMERICAN HONORED. Dr. Frank Van Allen Appointed a Bench Magistrate in India. CHICAGO, March 14.—Dr. Frank Van Alien, formerly of this city, who six years ago went to India as a medical missionary, has been appointed Bench Magistrate of the city of Madura, India, by the British Government, an unusual honor for an American, as official positions are gener- ally reserved for Englishmen. Dr. Van Allen has made a brilliant record as a physician, having established a dispensary where during the past year he treated 29,000 cases. He is a graduate of the Yale College Academy, medical and theological departments. SR Killed by Falling Walls. PITTSBURG, Pa., March 14.—While en- gaged in tearing down the old Merchants’ and Mechanics’ Bank building to-day one of the walls fell, crushing Patrick Killon’s skull, killing him instantly, and seriously injuring three others. e Fish Killed by Freezing. FORT WORTH, Tex., March 14.—Care- ful estimates place the amount of fish killed by the February freezing in the shallow bays on the Texascoast south of the mouth of the Brazos River at 35,000 ions, were marched to the levee and !¢ Providence, Attorney-General; John G. Perry of South Kingston, Treasurer. The tform deals almost wholly with State affairs. —_— STOLE A PATROL-WAGON. One Way to Escort a Party of Ladies to Their Homes. NEW YORK, March 14.—John Hayden of Sheepshead Bay was locked up in a sub- precinct station in Brooklyn to-day, charged with stealing a police patrol team and wagon. Hayden said he bad been to a party with a number of women. They wanted to get home. No cars were run- ning. Hayden volunteered to geta vehicle, and went to the stables of the police sta- tion at Twenty-first street and took the wagon. Hesays it was lent to him, but the police say they never saw the man. HOW GIBBS WAS KILLED. ROBINSON AND HIS WIFE WAY- LAID, ROBBED AND SHOT THE BUFFALO MAN. XT SNYDER BETRAYS His CousIn DURING THE MURDER TRIAL. B BUFFALO, N March 14.—In the Robinson trial Dr. Carlton R. Jewett testified that Gibbs’ death resulted from the bullet in the brain. Bert Snyder, Sadie Robinson’s cousin, told about hear- ing Clarence and Sadie quarrel at their house on Central avenue in Cleveland, when Sadie threatened to “blow about the Buffalo job.” “Then,” said the witness, ““Clarence held Sadie up.” “What do you mean by that?"’ “He pointed a revolver at her, having first blackened his mustache and tied a Landkerchief about his head.” “What did she say ?” “Shesaid: ‘That’s the way you held up Gibbs.’ ‘““Clarence went on and told me about holding up the Buffaloman. He said they got broke in Jamestown, skipped a board bill there and went to Buffalo. They went out one night and Sadie had a suit of his clothes on. They tackled this man Gibbs, and he fought and they shot him. Clar- ence showed me the revolvers.” Mr. Hardesty objected to the testimony of Snyder, but the court overruled the ob- jection. —_—— TUTAH'S CONSTITUTION. 1t Is Being Slowly Framed by the Con- vention. SALT LAKE, Utah, March 14.—A large number of propositions were submitted to the constitutional convention to-day and referred to appropriate committees. A petition of the woman suffragists was received and referred. Two propositions relating to the taxation of mines were sub- mitted, being taken from the laws of Mon- tana, Nevada and Colorado. The commit- tees are actively at work, but very liitle re- sult has been shown on the surface. B PROFESSOR HOPKINS CHOSEN. Will Fill an Important Chair at Yale College. NEW HAVEN, Conn., March 14.—At a special meeting of the Yale corporation to- day the university chair of Sanskrit and comparative philology was filled by the appointment of Professor Edward Wash- burn Hopking, a graduate of Columbia in 1876 and Ph.D. at Leipsic in 1881, now professor of Greek, Sanskrit and compara- tive philology in Bryn Mawr College. He is expected to begin his work here in Sep- tember. STRONG HAS NO POWER. Passage of Bills to Reorganize the New York Police Force. ALBANY, N. Y., March 14.—The bills to reorganize the Police Department of New York City were agreed upen by the Lexow committee to-day. The bills are drawn so as to take from the reform Mayor of New York any power of appointment in the matter and lodge it with the party leaders by retaining the present heads of the police and doing away with any special reorganization committee to be appointed by the Mayor. Coal Men Form a Pool. COLUMBUS, Ohio, March 14.—The coal mine operators of Ohio to-day formed a pool, and all the coal outputwill be dis- tributed by the board of control composed of a representative from each district. Sales agencies in various cities conducted by various companies will be aboiished, saving hundreds of thousands of dollars annually and enabling the companies to pay better wages. Close of a Long Boyecott. BROCKTON, Mass, March 14.—The fight which has been in progress for over three years between the Bouve-Crawfords Com- pany, shoe manufacturers, and the Ameri- can Federation of Labor, has been ended and circulars were sent out to-day announc- ing the national boycott had been lifted. The trouble began in the fall of 1891 in the lasting department. S American Credits Secured. LYNCHBURG, Va., March 14.—Holt, Schaefer & Co., tobacconists, filed a deed of assignment this evening for the benefit of their creditors. While the liabilities will reach into the hundreds of thousands, it is believed all American creditors are se- cured. The recent failure of Schilling & Bruning of Bremen is said to have caused the failure. e Burglars Wreck a Bank. MARSHALL, Mo., March 14.—Corder Bank, twenty miles west of here, was wrecked by burglars last night. The vault was entirely destroyed by dynamite. The burglars, scared by the explosion, fled empty-handed. A posse is in pursuit. VERY BAD MEN RULE. Incompetent Officials Are Causing Trouble in Samoa. ISLANDS IN A TURMOIL. All This Owing to the Poor Judgment of Treaty Powers. SQUABBLES OF FOREIGNERS. Arrest of a Man Who Started a Scandal About Robert Louis Stevenson. SAMOA, Feb. 27.—Matters political re- main in a some t similar condition to what they were when the last steamer left. During the temporary absence of Chief Justice Ide the President, who was acting as Chief Justice, behaved in such a manner as to destroy what vestige of respect re- mained for foreign institutions, and Ide, who returned on January 31, has caused great dissatisfaction by appearing to in- dorse the illegal and vindictive acts of his locum tenens. Of one thing there can be no doubt, this group of islands was never in so unsatis- factory a condition, and when the unpreju- diced observer reflects that this condition has been solely brought about by the incom- petency of the officials who were appointed by the treaty powers (i. e., the United States, Great Britain and Germany), one can understand the anger of local residents when they see the country in political tur- moil and everything in the semblance of business swept—it is to be hoped tempo- rarily—out of existence. The German-firm of Frings & Co., which was brought into unpleasant notoriety through importing and selling to the rebels rifles and ammunition, is insolvent, and a receiver and trustee have been ap- vointed. A large number of local trades- men are affected by this bankruptcy, which has been brought about by negli- gence. A bank is about to be opened here—a branch of a British institution—which will prove an immense boom. The dengue fever, which has been the prevailing epidemic bere for the last three months, has now almost left. A large | number of deaths have resulted from its effects, The rebel party are at present congre- gated in Aana and are discussing as to the advisability of attacking the Government, the supporters of which are now so de- pleted, owing to the suicidal policy which has been pursued by the treaty officials, | that unless the powers intervene the rebels will obtain an easy victory. The municipal elections which took place on the 5th inst. were bitterly con- tested on purely national lines, the Ger- mans opposing the Britishers and Ameri- cans and vice versa. The result was an equal division of honors, three Britishers and three Germans receiving the suffrages of the voters. A scandalous rumor has been promul- gated here impiicating the late Robert Louis Stevenson and his family with the importation of guns and ammunition. The captain and agent of the United States schooner Equator were also implicated. The author of the scandal has been ar- rested and is now awaiting trial. The “British warship Wallaroon is the only warship in port at present. The Bus- sard (German) is soon expected. The Samoan King and Government have impeached Herr Schmidt, the President, and have sent a petition to the powers praying for his recall. The words of the petitlon form a very strong indictment, and President Schmidt will have much difficulty in disproving the charges which have been made. Several of the members of the London Missionary Society have taken their depart- ure from Samoa, and so far their places have not been filled. A new German Consul-General in the person of Herr Schmidt-Lede, who has for some time filled that position in Yoko- hama, arrived by the Alameda to relieve Consul Biermann. GERMANY AND ARGENTINE. A Question of Withdrawing From the Treaty in the Reichstag. BERLIN, March 14.—In the Reichstag to-day there was a lengthy discussion ovex the motion that Germany withdraw from her new treaty with Argentine. The mo- tion was finally referred to a special com- mittee. During the discussion Von Bieberstein, Minister of Foreign Affairs, declared Ger- man exports to the Argentine Republic now amounted to 75,000,000 marks. Ger- many had intimated to the Argentine Goy- ernment that if Argentine wanted to ex- port goods to Germany she would have to modify her customs duties. He protested that such an interpretation should be placed upon the “favored nation treaty” as was exercised by the United States under the McKinley tariff, with the object, he said, of excluding German goods from American markets by means of reciprocity treaties. e ACCEPTS THE SPEAKERSHIP. Sir William Harcourt to Preside in the House of Commons. LONDON, March 14.—The Globe this evening states the Government has con- veyed a hint to the opposition that Sir William Vernon Harcourt is disposed to accept the speakership when Sir Arthur Wellesley Peel resigns, providing his elec- tion is not opposed. The idea is said to have been well received by the opposition, and if it isedopted it is reported the Camp- bell Bannerman will succeed Sir William as Liberal leader in the House of Com- mons. —_—— AS TO RAILWAY BONDS. Caution of the “Thunderer” in Reference to American Securities. LONDON, March 14.—In its financial article to-morrow the Times will have a comment on the Atchison reorganization scheme, in which it will say that the share- holders are too leniently treated and that the agreement is another blow at the reputation of American railway bonds. ““We hope,” the paper adds, “that in the future the public will be more careful in taking American railroad bonds. Experi- ence has shown that the number of sound bonds is smaller than it was years ago.” —_——— Serious Railway Smashup. AMHERST, N. 8., March 14.—A serious smashup occurred on the International Railway hereto-day. The Canadian Pacific express, with a large number of passengers on board, telescoped a colonial freight, and the cars were piled up indiscrimingbely, several being completely demolished. None of the passengers were hurt. — RAISING THE PRICE OF SUGAR. Germany Refuses to Shut Off Excessive Demands on the Treasury. BERLIN, March 14.—The Reichsan- zeiger officially publishes a report of the proceedings of the State Council. It says the council has approved proposals to raise the price of sugar, which were submitted by the report of the committee, which said the depressed condition of the sugar in- dustry was due to overproduction ar- rangements. The sole remedy lay in an increase of the bounty paid for sugar ex- ports, and in order to provide the means for this they must raise the excise duties on consumption and take measures to re- strict the output with the view of prevent- ing excessive demands on the treasury. — Will Grant Extradition. LONDON, March 14.—The Times' cor- respondent at Buenos Ayres telegraphs he has been assured the Argentine Govern- ment has decided to grant the extradition of Spencer Balfour, who is wanted in Eng- land in connection with the Liberal build- ing society fraud: e e Floods Spoil the Sugar Crop. RIO JANEIRO, March 14.—The flood in the Parahiba do Sul River has destroyed the sugar crop in the Campos dos Gaita- cazes district, in the State of Rio de Janeiro. This district produces the best sugar grown in Brazil. SHE BEATS THE BRITANNIA VICTORY PERCHES ON THE FINE SWIFT YACHT AILSA, By THE REsuLT BaroN HiIrscH Loses A Nice LITTLE FoRTUNE. CANNES, March 14.—The Ailsa won by about ten minutes. The times at the finish were: lsa, 2 hours 47 min. 31 sec.; Britannia, 3 hours 44 sec. The Ailsa consequently won _b_v 13 min. 13 sec. actual time and 12 min, corrected time. After the Ailsa crossed the line she waited for the Britannia, and when the latter had finished the Prince of Wales’ cutter was sailed very close to the Ailsa and the Prince of Wales raised his yachting-cap in the airand led the hearty cheers for the boat which had given his boat the most severe beating she ever had. Those on board the Ailsa returned the cheers, and the victorious cutter then pro- ceeded to the quay, where she was wel- comed by a large crowd of people. It was reported after the race that Ogden Goelet won $25,000 from Baron Hirsch on the Ailsa’s victory. Aiter the race the representatives of the Associated Press interviewed several prominent yachtsmen. All the members of the Royal Yacht squadron agreed that the Ailsa was a wonderfud boat and that she was superior in all points to the Britannia. o Sk They were of ~the opinion that Mr. Herreshoff would undoubtedly improve on the Vigilant, but that he would have a difficult task to surpass the Ailsa. The British yachtsmen said they were aston- ished that the Vigilant would not take part in the Clyde races previous to her re- turn to the United States, as that would give the American’s truest comparison with the Ailsa’s form. 9 HELD A FISTIC SEANCE. Sporting Element of the Twin Cities Rold Fights Near the Line. ST. PAUL, Minn., March 14.—The sport- ing element of the Twin Cities held a fistic seance in a resort near the Wisconsin- Minnesota line, which was a tremendous success. Oscar Gardner, the “Omaha Kid,” and Jack Cummins of St. Paul, at 115 pounds each, were down for the preliminary event at six rounds, Gardner getting the decision after a pretty contest. The main event was between Eddy Scheenberg of Minneapolis, 120 pounds, and Jimmy Murphy of Kansas City, 128 pounds, a new comer. This was one of the best fights seen in these parts for many a day. Murphy knocked his man out in the thirty-third round. RACING AT NEW ORLEANS. Average Time in Running Events ow a Slow Track. \ NEW ORLEANS, March 14. — Track slow.

Hikok, captain of the Yale athletic team, said to-day relative to the reported delay in training for the Oxford-Cambridge ath- letic team that it mattered very little to Yale, as in all probability there would be no team sent from the university should a match take place. Sparred Sixz Rounds. BALTIMORE, March 14.—A large crowd witnessed the six-round bout between Stanton Abbott of Providence and Charles Gehring of Baltimore to-night. The men sparred cautiously, neither apparently bent upon getting in a sleeper. During the last three rounds Gehring had a shade the best of it. No decision was rendered. ; Hall Knocks Out Haley. DENVER, March 14.—Ina thirty-round contest at the Central Theater to-night, George Hali of Chicago knocked out Jerry Haley of California. It was a test of en- durance rather than of science oranything else. Hall is the recent “ringer’ of the Denver Wheel Club. The purse was for $300. Rich Trotting Stakes. GALESBURG, Ill, March 14—G. A.

CINCINNATI, March 14.—Dan McLeod and Charles Wittmer signed a contract and put up $50 forfeit each with the Enquirer to- night for a three-round, purely catch-as- catch-can wrestling match in Cincinnati, April 13, for gate receipts. Wattmer is to weigh 185 and McLeod 165. SEEKING THE BODIES No Trace Found of Two of the Lynched Italians. WALSENBURG AND ROUSE Denizens of Those Hard Lo- calities Keep a Close Mouth. BOB FORD ONCE RULED THERE. Consul Cuneo Recognizes Friendliness of This Country for His Government. the PUEBLO, Colo., March 14.—A warm wind at Walsenburg this morning melted the snow of yesterday very rapidly and dried the earth, so that this afternoon searching parties set out again to hunt for the bodies of the two Italians killed by the mob Tuesday night, but no trace has asyet been found. Quiet has reigned all day, but the ex- treme close-mouthedness that has charac- terized everybody in Walsenburg and Rouse since the mob did its fatal work still continues. There is no doubt but that a_ very considerable number of ]}e(gywle know thoroughly well who did the killing, but they know too well. ‘Walsenburg has for years been a rather hard town, with an element that occasion- ally shows its teeth and uses its guns. These men are of more or less prominence or notoriety, and as it is believed that they | did the work no one dares to say so or | acknowledge any cognizance of the partici- | pants for fear of being himself used as a target. il The notorious Bob Ford, slayer of Jesse James, ran a dancehall—and the town of ‘Walsenburg—for several years. Six of his pals from that place are now in the State | penitentiary for various crimes, but o‘hcrs are still on hand. | Walsenburg is a hamlet of but 1000 | people with coal mines and miners at her doors on every side, and the turbulent element is therefore large, and especially since the strike of last summer, after which many miners who were steady men and had accumulated some property moved away. DENVER, Colo., March 14.—Dr. Cuneo, Italian Consul, started for Walsenburg to- | 0od quantity is assured, but the uncom- fortal?le unce’rtainty lingers whether it will be enough to go around. TUntil that point is settled prices seem to be bound to bump along on bedrock. " Southern producers of pigiron have booked orders quite heavily, and yet the market remains stationary with occa or}a] soft spots. Our monthly pigiron statistics show that production is not up to Phe n}nrk reached earlier in the year. This is chiefly due to the fact that a number of furnaces are undergoing repairs, and confirms the statement made some time since that the really modern plant north of the Potomac and the Ohio capable of making iron at present prices is fully engaged. In the metal trade the principal matter of interest is the continued weakening of copper. There has been a good deal of pressure to sell on the part of one large producing in- terest, and rumor hasit that close to 9 cents has been accepted for Lake copper.

ATLANTA, Ga., March 14.—The Georgia Women's Press Club will withdraw its membership from the General Federation of Women's Clubs, for the reason that the federation has just admitted into its mem- bership three clubs made up of negro ing board of the club, which held a meet- | ing yesterday afternoon at the Capital Fe- male College.

Italy BSatisfied With the Action of thsi United States. . | ROME, March 14.—It is semi-officially | announced that a dispatch from Wash- ington has been received by the Govern- ment saying that on the receipt of yester- day’s first news of the killing of several Italians in Colorado the Italian Embas- sador addressed a note to the Federal Gov- ernment on the matter, and also tele- | graphed the Italian Consul at Denver for | information. The Federal Government, in response to the inquiry of the Embassador, said that it was not in possession of the facts in regard to the murders; but the Consul telegraphed to the Embassador confirming a report that six Italians had been killed in consequence of the murder of a saloon-keeper. whether the murdered Italians were naturalized Americans, the Embassador charged the Consul to inquire into the matter of their citizenship. Meanwhile, the Governor of Colorado telegraphed the Embassador that he had sent troops to protect the Italians near the scene of the trouble. The dispatch received here added that the United States authorities displayed a most conciliatory disposition, and, in pur- suance of the Embassador’s request, ex- pressed their intention of obtaining an exact account of the incident and the causes of it, and to take whatever meas- ures were required. - WEAKENING IN PIG IRON. An Uncomfortable Feeling Spreading Over the Market. NEW YORK, March 14.—The Iron Age to-day will say: An uncomfortable feel- ing is spreading over the weak market for Bessemer pig iron in the Central West. Heavy purchases of recent date have not bad a lasting effect. It appears that a number of consumers are not taking their iron as fast as it was contracted for. Steel is dull and is easier, although it is somewhat difficult to locate prices ex- actly. The only transaction of magnitude reported is the sale by a Western Pennsyl- viania works to an Eastern Pennsylvania place mill of 5000 tons of slabsat $17, deliv- ered. The steel-rail trade is somewhat agi- tated over an order of 10,000 tons and upward from the Pacific Coast, the new road from Sun Francisco south being in the market. The interest grows chiefly out of the fact that there will be a sharp struggle between the American and Eng- lish mills, the latter having a very de- cided advantage in freights. Aside from a few moderate orders for plates taken by Pittsburg and the initial Boston rapid transit order taken by Har- risburg, only a small tonnage has been placed in finished iron and steel. To the impatient minds the long promised rush | Mathilda Fisher, 68 years, received bodily As it was unknown [ s Beck opened up correspondence with the officers of the federation.
