When Powell Clayton was Heeted by the National Committee for 'i i-inporary Chairman some members of mat committee voted for him on tiie personal grounds that he had long been connected with the committee am the.

The independents decided to make an issue on the selec-Hoti and formed a combination with the Arthur men for thai pure.

The votes were cast largely on ths issue, but not all of them, a some Arthur men voted for Clayton, in order to sustain the committee, ajid some Blaine men voted for Lynch, as he is claimed to be for Blaine. However, the Edmunds men are vers" jubilant and claim that the field against Blaine is strong enough to dictate the nominee. On the other hand, the Blaine men say 'there are Arthur men who will go to Blame if they see no chance for their favorite, and that their vote has ihown them to be stronger than has heretofore been conceded; that in fact there are 342 votes in a compact body. PERMANENT CHAIRMAN. After the election of George B.

Williams, of Indiana, Chairman, the committee proceeded to the election of permanent Chair-nan and Secretary of the convention. The Hon. Galusha A. Grow, of Pennsylvania, was put in nomination by the friends jf Blaine, and J. B.

Henderson, of Missouri by the opposition. Henderson was sleeted by a vote of 50 to 17. Charles W. Glisbee, of Michigan, was inanimously elected Secretary. IX THE POOLS.

At a meeting of the Indiana delegation this morning, 29 voted to present Harrison's name as a candidate, and it is understood that 25 of these will surely vote for him.

This action has created intense excitement, and promises to upset all calculations. Miscellaneous. Major McKinley, Chairman of the Committee on Resolutions said last night that it was too early to indicate the points of the platform, but that he intended to make an effort to have a reasonable tariff plank inserted in the resolutions and would probably be scccessfuL The Committee on Credentials had only considered the contested Alabama case up to midnight, and appeared to be in for a full night session. Some of the hopeful delegates affect to believe that the balloting for President will be reached by this evening. The leaders of the Edmunds movement held a consultation in the rooms of George William Curtis to-night, and in the view-that they held the balance of power, they decided to keep up the fight until either a sufficient number of votes come their way to decide the contest in his favor, or else to give their strength to some nne of their liking.

Some of Edmunds' men afterwards held a convention with the Arthur people, and the bond between the two appears binding enough to cause them to join hands as against the Blaine people. The Wisconsin, delegation held a consultation and the name of General Sherman was considered as one which they might, at the proper time spring upon the convention.

Pittsburgh. June 3. President Kiddle made a statement of the affairs of the Penn Bank and the causes which led to its collapse. In it he charges the bank directors with being concerned in the oil iool. which wrecked the bank; ami tells how the failure was brought about.

He recites how the position of the Presidency was forced on him. and he soon discovered that loans on oil collateral were exceeding the collateral at the low prices then ruling. He complained to Cashier Reiber and the Vice-President, who he had told to bas these accounts made up, and he told thfm he could not see what was to be done unless by personal exertion they could get all the people to buy enough oil to put the prices up, and buy enough on the bank's account to make good these accounts. "I told Mr. Reiber," he said, "and I told part of the board, viz: T.

B. Laugh 1 in. and J. N. Brown, A.

M. Cavit and Major Swearingen of my intention, and told all of them that I would not then or any other time buy a single barrel for myself. I had only a wish to make up these accounts. I went East and the board knew tiie nature of my errand. I had a lot of people there to buy, and a lot here to buy.

The sole purpose of this scheme was the profits of the bank. I had no individual interest in the venture at all. In May, 1882, a large lot of oil was bought and the price advanced. In the midst of this I was again taken sick. That was the time the accounts named in the papers as ficticious accounts were made: some here for any gain to go to the bank to make up these old bank accounts; others for individuals who would hope for a divide.

Now then, I want to say that these directors did know all about this after I went to New York to get such parties, as I could buy oil with parties here and in Oil City. I told these directors of the purpose of my going. They brought out one of the parties that transacted business through me on jyeir individual accounts, as the accounts in if.ink will show." Riddle then gives in detail the names of parties engaged in speculating with the funds of the bank. The official statement of the bank directors, made later, characterizes Riddle's allegations as false in every particular. They assert they knew nothing of the oil speculations until after the bank suspended.

RANCE. Mr. Donnan, of Iowa, presented a memorial of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, which, after some opposition, was read and referred to the Committee on Rules. A MOTION TO ADJOVKX. Mr.

The Chair "The resolution offered by the gentleman from New York has not been read." Mr. BaLne "I withdraw my motion." Senator Cullom, of Illinois "I desire, before the motion to adjourn is put, to make a statement to the convention. In the call of the States for the vote of the different states on the question of the election of temporary chairman, Mr. Cook, one of my colleagues, was absent, and an alternate called his name, without his own name being called. Mr.

Cook is now present, if he had been in his seat he would have voted for the gentleman Iroin Arkansas, instead of the present chairman. Mr. Blaine "I renew my motion. The Chairman "The gentlemen from Pennsylvania moves that the convention adjourn until to-morrow at eleven o'clock. The question is upon that motion, and those in favor of the motion for a recess will say aye.

The motion was carried and the convention stood adjourned until this morning at eleven o'clock. After the adjournment le Chair stated that the Committee on Rules and the Committee on Credentials would meet in the hall and tiie committees proceeded to the work in hand. A Retrospect. Proceedings of the day, while characterized by great earnestness ami keen watchfulness to detect any evidence that the tide was turning in any direction, were not prolific in dramatic incidents for the reason that a large share of the sesssion was occupied by the routine of calling the roll of the convention and the election of temporary chairman. This part of the proceedings was only relieved from monotony by glimpses of personal characteristics and phases of feeling exhibited by members of the convention, as they rose one at a time to announce their personal or political preferences for temporary chairman.

The first sensational feature of the session was immediately after Chairman Sabin announced tne name of Powell Clayton, of Arkansas, as choice of the National Committee for temporary chairman of the convention, when Henry Cabot Lodge, of Massachusetts, rose and mov ed to substitute the name of John R. Lynch, one of the colored delegate- from Mississippi, and though some such action was not unanticipated it caused a decided sensation, ft was known that there was a movement on foot looking t. putting forward the name of ii. K. Bruce, of Mississippi, tiie colored man who was one of the Vice-Presidents of the last National Convention, who wielded tiie gavel as chairman for a short time at the request of Senator Hoar, who was permanent chairman, but it is stated that Bruce refused tiie position, the candidacy for which was then transferred to Lynch.

The conference at which Lynch was determined on. was held in tiie morning. Tiie first general demonstration was made when on the call or the oil the name of Virginia was reached ami rhe name of General Mahone was caheu. a general cheer rose from the main floor and galleries, interrupting the call tor a brier time. Theodore Roosevelt, tiie young New Yorker who has so suddenly sprung into prominence in the politics of his State, also received marked evidences of recognition when he first rose to speak.

Powell Clayton was the center of observation as he mounted" the chair at tiid head of the Arkansas delegation and with degree of deliberation and outward ealnj which was scarcely to be anticipated umk-r the circumstances, announced that he was not present when his name was called and that he desired to cast his vote for his opponent. The announcement of the result of the balkt for temporary chairman was the signal for a general outburst. Delegates rose, climbed upon chairs, swung their hats, handkerchiefs, canes and umbrellas in the air and cheered lustily and wtam it subsided, Governor Clayton, stiff with grvat apparent calmness, moved to ntafco She choice unanimous.

The Republican National Convention, the eighth in the history of the party, convened aX noon yesterday, he spectacle presented at the opening was notable one in many ways and its description would be worthy of a high flight of the imagination. The working body of the convention, the greatest in ioiiit of numbers of any National political assemblage, occupied only a small portion of the vast auditorium. The remaining body of the hall was tilled by an audience which occupied svery point of vantage and made up picture as viewed from the stand of an ilmost unending sea of faces of solid black and uncovered heads relieved by the rich colors and fluttering toilets of the ladies, who were present in great force. The hall is the largest, and has been termed the most complete ever thrown open for the work of Vast deliberative body. It is in one sense temporary, having been constructed within the walls of the Exposition building, situated on the east line of the city on the shore of Lake Michigan.

Its seating capacity approximates thirteen thousand. Springing from the east and west sides of the hall are vast arches, which rise two hundred feet in the air and relieve the view through the entire expanse of the auditorium. The Speaker's desk rests on a platform twelve feet above seats of the delegates, and the press occupies an intermediate space midway in height, or about on a level with the heads of the delegates as they occupy their chairs. Back of the chair, ranged in a semi-circle and on a level space, are seated the remaining officers of the convention, members of the National Committee and their friends. Back of the circle, on a sharply rising incline, are 1,000 seats, occupied by a great many persons of National repute, whose presence is by the grace of tne National committeemen.

Swung over the desk of the Chairman and fairly touching the arches is a wide-spreading sounding board, and embracing the side extremes of the building tiie delegates and alternates occupy a dead level space bounded by square lines. They are hemmed iir on two sides by tiers of boxes, occupied mainly by guests of the delegates. The section of the hall occupied by the working body of the convention is broken by four wide aisles, from the edges of which rise the Roman standard pendant with blue silk banners imprinted in gold, with the names. On the left wing of the stage, is the State of Alabama, and back through the first tier of seats, follow Arkansas, California, Connecticut, and down through the line of States in alphabetical turn to Maine. Beginning again on the right and rear is Maryland, with Massachusetts immediately in her front, and ending with the District of jjCo-lumbia in the front row of the second tier.

New York occupies the front rank in the third and Ohio holds the ranking position in the fourth ami remaining tier. Back of the delegates is a similar space occupied by the alternate and separated from the main bodj by a scarcely perceptible partition. In the rear of the alternates is acoin-modions seating space, the chairs resting on an easy incline and cut off from the space occupied by the alternates by a line of pickets. Beginning at a point 100 feet in the rear of the alternates is another dividing wall, and from that point rises tier upon tier of seats to a point almost midway between the level of the hall and the apex of the dome-like roof. To complete the picture narrow galleries run along the east and west sides of the hall its entire length, and seemingly suspended in mid air.

The front of this gallery i. taced with the coats of arms of the several tates. on a background of festooned Hags. Fluttering from the arches are tiie national colors anil the flags of all nations. The prevailing color in the body of the hall is a dead Indian red.

to a point where the arches seem to spring from the iralleries, and from this point, embracing the dome of the building, it is a light sky blue. DISTINGUISHED VISITORS.

Twenty-five employes of Ilunter's circus were seriously poisoned at Augusta, this county, through the carelessness of the cook. One of the men had bought some jimsom seed for a sick horse and by some means it got into the meat box. At breakfast the men complained that the coffee was not strong enough, and the cook put in the seed for ground coffee. The scene that soon followed beggars description. Most of the men fell in their seats in a death-like sleep, while others were seized with vomiting and convulsions.

The city turned out to a man and with the aid of the residing physician saved the lives of the entire crowd. Some of the men had started to Leon, where the circus was to exhibit, and were found on the road where the3' had fallen from tlieir wagons in a death-like stujor. Great excitement prevailed at Augusta all day. One peculiarity of the effects of the poison was that when they recovered consciousness they were insane. Some wanted to fight, others were riding imaginary horses in the circus, and.

in fact, the town was a pandemonium all day. All the men will recover. A FEARFUL CRIME. MtKKr supply lit -in pnec weak: nativ clipped, ffff t'lypt'i Tex MB 4. OG8 Aettve an 1 tower; Ynrke.

June 3. About noon yesterday Constable Lomgoss came to town with the word that two children had been discovered drowned in Sugar Creek, about five miles north of Pleasanton. A coroner's jury was at once summoned by X. W. Burnett.

and repaired at once to the place of drowning, and upon reaching the little stream, a wagon and one horse was found near by, and by the side of the wagon the dead body of a girl about sixteen years of age with her head severed from her body by an ax which stood near. The bodies of the children were taken from the stream and proved to be a girl of about eleven years of age and a boy of about six. Tiie giv? had been struck in the head with an ax, and the boy's throat was cut from ear to ear. Coffins had been provided for the two children only, in which they were placed and the inquest proceeded over the three. In the meantime some of the party had discovered a terrible stench about one hundred yards from the wagon and upon searching in some thick brush the body of a woman was found also covered over with logs and trash.

Upon uncovering her it was found that she, too. had been struck upon the side of the bead and then had her throat cut from ear to ear. There was nothing upon any of them to tell who they were or where they were from. The oldest woman was probably thirty-seven years old. In the wagon was found four plain straw hats, a bundle of woman's wearing apparel, an axe with which the deed was done, a cross cut saw.

two iron wedges, a cable log chain and a skillet. The wagon is an old one. as is also the harness. The horse found near by is a small bay pony and blind in both eyes; the other horse was probably ridden off by the perpetrator of the awful deed. Near by in the creek were found fth poles and lines, just as they had been left.

The deed has probably been done about a week as the bodies were badly decomposed. A stray dog supposed to belong to the parties came to a farmer's house near by a few days since. The victims were buried on the spot as they were too badly decomposed to move.
