v3 v. ' - If MEMFHI APPEAL,, ESTABLISHED 1840. MEMPHIS, TENN.. THURSDAY, JUNE 17, 188G. VOL. XL VI NO. 341. THIS Th Marqai of Ev ington, ia bi manifeato published this morning, re ally nivft up the fight. Be differ, only with Mr. Gltdttona ai t the power to be conferred on an Irish Parliament. lie admita that borne ru'e should be conferred upon the Irish people, but he wants it limited in some way. He does not exactly know to what extent We fear that tbe Marqu's, who is a true man and loyal to his principle, hiving resitted all the blacdithmenta of tb Toiies, is too much of a stickler or hiir spl'tter. He is another care of a good man gone wrong. Thk trial of the Converse brothers before the Louisville Pesbytery ia dragging its slow length along and threatens, our special correspondent tells ne, to outlast the present Fenera tion. If the question of Prof. Wood row's theory of evolution in tt be de bated in connection with the ques tion of the veracity and honor of its deiendactn we are not sure that the tri il will not last be yond two generations. If evolution is Ignored and the trial is narrowed to the points raited by the Rev. Dm. Boggs and Daniels, tbere is no reason why it should net be closed in a week. The right cr wiong of these would de pend upon comppseDt testimony, and of that these ger t'enien have en: ugh, according to thtir showirg, to silence the Converse brothers and put them beyond tbe pale cf the church. Mb. Alfbid Taylor, who wayes terday nominated lor Governor by the Republican convention, is the son of a former member of Congress, and one of the most eloquent speakers Ten nessee ever sen' to the Ilo ise of Rep resentatives. He was a conservative Union man, and had much influence in Cjngrera, notwithstanding he was known to have been a itaunch friend of Andrew Johrlson. Mr. Alfred Taylcr has always affiliated with the Republican;, and on several occasions has bean en rust d by them with im portant work, such as that devolving upon an elector for the 8 ate at latge, and has generally acquitted him self with cr.'.dit. But if he accepts th'snouiira in ho willsiddle himself wilh a contract beyond Lis powers, for no ma'ter who the Demo crats selected to opp se him from these offering for the Governoi ship maybe he is certain to be defeated. Indeed, his defeat is a foreione conclusion. It is to be hoped the Taxing District Council will not do anything rash to day in tbe matter cf the ges cont act. Memphis is nrt a pp.uper upon the public hrghway asking for the help of great corporations to brat ber munici . pal burdens. 8' e does not atk for free lights and she especially do.js not want free gas at the exptnsa of her own taxpayers. Betides there are constitutional objections. As to tbe sometimes mooted objection of tear ing up the street, that is all nonser se. That of Main street, for instance, would be bettered by bsing torn up and laid again, and that of Second could not be injured if the re'aying is done as carefully as tbe Citizens' Street railroad d'd that work when putting down its tails. Except at the junction of Second and Madi'oo, their work was weil done, and there the difficulties to be overcome are of a nature to puzzle tbe best engineer ing skill. Competition is tbe life of trade. We u-ge tbe Council not to make a contract wilh the old gas com pany. Thk reign cf terror that prevai's ia East St. Louis is due to the willfully stupid conduct cf the Vayi,r of that city, who has for seme reasons tbat satisfy him?elf suspended all theio licemen, and lefused to replace them. If at all es intelligent as his election ti the p'ace im plies, be ought to have known, and doubtless did know, tbat th s sus pension would, with such a popula tion as he has to deal with, be the signal for just su'h cowardly and au dacious assaults upon women f s well as men as are reported by telegraph. No ma'ter wbat his views of official duty may te, he is not jut titled in leaving tbe community committed to his care without adequate rrotection against thieves and Besacs'ns. His conduct proves Mm to be an unwoitby execu tive and an unsafe leaJtr and guide, deserving of some'hiog more severe than cemure. He ehould be held pereona'ly responsible for every loss by rcbbeiy, and forall the injuries sus tained by biu al assaults upon the perton. (. Th Repub icans yesterday nomi- nated Alfred Taylor of East Tennes aee, biotherof "Bob," for Governor. C It wou'd ba a ra'.her singular thing in jthe political history of the country if Bob received the Democratic nomina tion, and the two brothers were to be pitied against each oihtr. In such an event tbere could bs no doubt as to which side victory would perch on. Alfred can't play the fiddle, and no matter how eloquently he might plead, Bob would snow bim under with the "Arkan saw Traveler" or "Polly, Put the Kett'e On." Besides, Bob wculd have the whole Democratic party to appeal to, ;nd Alfred wooM be handicapped with tUe dead weight of thi Republi can pa'ty. But nr snch cnniingoncy is likely to arise. Bob Looney is more likely t'o be ti e Democratic candidate than Bob Taylor, and, if he is. Aided will stand even less chance of suctes, for he will mert a ready debater wel posted in State and national politic?! a man wLo knows how to meet tbe people and how to address them most eatcuveiy. ALF TAYLOR THE KOMSEE OF THE TENNESSEE REPUBLI CASS FORGOYIRNOR. Dow the Result Was Reached A Stormy Fight on the Prohibi tion QoeUlon. Vtu):l . TBI ArrltL.I Nashvilus, Tehh., June 16. The Appeal's prediction this morning that AIL Tayior would be the nominee of the Kepub ican conven ion to-day was fully verified. IS nnn a friends did not know till this momi re that Tay lor would run, and the dodge of Taylor's unwillingness to accept a nomination wrs worked ao handfomrly by II. nk, Littleton, and Arch Hughes tbat Dunn's friends thought they hud a wa'k-nvtr and r sted on their oars. Jutt ten h' ms before the convention assembled the elite was revealed. Everylhii g was in readinets fi r action, and eo fust did Houk manipulate the delega'es that when Kunncame down from his room at the Maxwell House this morning he was a defeated man. He saw the scheme that had b en worked on him, but It was too late to recover lost ground. The convention wa packed ttaiiiPt h!in, and Taylor, the Bourton candidate, was etsily l ominaied, al though the West Tenne sseean made a gallant figbt. The wily b s from the mountains had again demons ra'ed bia title to the chieftaincy of Tennes see It-publicans. OPINING OP Till CONVENTION.

The Committee on Credent. als re poit'd all delegations rpgiiiar. The report was received ajcl adopted. J ERM ANEST ORGANIZATION. The Comm'tt eon Permanent Or ftan zili in reported as follows: Frr permanent chairmen, the Hjn. T. W. Brown of Shelby county; secret-try, H. B Lindsay of Scott; assi-'an's, J. ti. ti. Mcuall ot Uirroll and H. D Soirlmll of Williams-'in. The Hon. R. R. linear introduced the permanent chairman. Mr. Erown made a epeech and ta d : "II tel bills aie inrreas.ng and funds diminishing, and therefore I am ad monished lo he biief" Tho ppfaker then proceeded to give the pr nciples of tbe Republican party, the chief of which he said was afr e ballot and a faircouot, something that did not exist in the South. He said h was in cumbent on the government to fur nish a remedy. He abused the Demo cratic party for refusing to accept the Blair bill as a wise measure. COMMITTEEMEN FOB THE STATE AT LARGE, The following gentlemen were nomi nated as members of the Sta'e Exe cutive Committee for the Sta'e at largp, ore from each grand divi-r n of the Stito, by Mr. Rngers of Jefferson : rroin r.Mi Tanness-e, J U tlouk of Knox; from West Tenneee, S. H. Haynes of Shelby; from Middle Ten ners?e, J. J. Littletm of Davidson. Mr. E Winters objected to the nnmina'ion of Mr. L ttlet in, and pro posd the name of Gen. Geo. Maney. Mr. A. J. Rigiey, ot Cjrrell coun y, was also cominated for West Tennes see. Gen. Maiey got the floor and said be would be a cu.ttstn for nothing with a Republican, and was unwiliir.' to allow hia name to be voted for for anything. Grn. Maney withdrew h's name from the coavention. Tbete was a motion to suhstituie the name of Mr. fiigtty, of Ca-iol!, for that of Mr. Haynee, of Shtdby, but on a viva voce vote the m tion ta led. Mess os. Houk, L tlaton and-Haynes were elecied by acclama iun. TEMPERANCE PETITIONS. A petition from tbe Women's Chris tian Temp.-ranee Society and tne Young Men's Temperance C ub of Knoxrille was presented and relet red to the Corr.mittee on Re olntiors, NOMINATIONS TUB O0VBAN0S. On motion, noffiinations for a candi date for Governor were declared in order. Mr. Smith of Shelby nominated the Hon. D. A. Nunn of Haywood. Mr. Austin of Knox nominated the Hon. A. A. Taylor of Carter. Mr Austin said tbe nomination of Mr. Taylor would mean the retirement of the s'.rongett Democratic candidate Bob Taylor. Mr. McElwee seconded the nomina tion ot Mr. Nnnn in a strong speech. Mr. Smith of Shelby taid Dave Nnnn was tbe luckiest man a ive, so lucky tna he baa neer been defeated for any offics for which be was a can didate. Mr. John Rabin of Davidtoa, seconded the nomination of the Hon. D. A. Xunn. He spoke of Mr. Nunn as a general Republican pitrio. Mr. Austin arpealed to the conven tion in behalf of East Tennessee and said that section had not had the can didate for Governor for ten years. Mr. Garrett seconded tbe nomina tion of Mr. Taylor. Mr. Ruhm said that East Tennessee Republicans bad been getting all tbe Congressmen whila the other c actions got nothing. Roderh k Random Butler and Boss Houk made strong appeals for Taylor. The slate showed its hand here, and the delegates from West Tennessee coot:nuaily interrupted the sneaker aith ciies for "Nunn, Nunn." The convention was at a high sta'e of ex-cit-nunt, ciea for the rival candidates ri-ing oa every hand, when the Com mittee on Resolutions made tbeir re port. THE PLATFORM reviews the allegiance of the Republi cana of Tenneesee to tbe Republican party, Ic charges the Democratic party with tin present deprees;on in busine s and the suffering of the poor. It c eel res again t bringing convict labor in competition wHi free labor. It favors twe employment of shrrt term convicts on i ublic toads. It de mns the repeal of the pr:oent per capita road tax law. It iavora tne pas- agec f the Blair bill. It favois the protection of American labor and a potsctive tarifl. It demands there pe..l ot tbe internal revenue system. It demands tbat coinora Hons shall pay their employes in money and not in scrip and mer chandise. It favors a better me etiaoics lien law. It eyntpathizf s with Ireland and favors home rule for that country. It favors a free ballot and a fair count and the submir'-ion of the constitutional prohibition amend ment. A MINORITY REPORT was read favoring the eubmission to the people of the proposed conatitu tio al amendment, but auxgesting that the matter should be re egated by the people in their respective legis lative d siricls totneiriepiesentaMvee. The minoritv report was siirned tv o 11. Is ,1', T. . J ssells, John a is and J. W. Ovetall. n ALLOT FOR OOVEI1N08. On motion, tbe cooveniion proceed ed to take a ballot for the candidate f;r Governor befcre adopting the platform. The result of the fiot bal lot wasaj follows: Tylor,373; Nunn, Wo. When Tavlor had received a major ity of the votes of the entire conven tion, Hampton county charged her entire vote to Taylor. 1 ins was a six nal for cbangte. and cheers on eve ry aide. Mr. Lyle of Haywood moved to make Mr. Taylor'a no-nination unani mous, which was done amid the wild est excitement. Tay or accepted the nomination in an e'oquent speech, and Nunu fol lowed, pledging him his support. A STORMY SCENE. The disposition ot the repor'g on platform were now before the house, and tnetr d sjutsion provoked a stormy scene. A temperance faction and an antt- prt hibition faction were developed by tne discussion, and tne ngiu grew not, Tbe former struggled to retain section 9 of the platform. Tbe latter fought it hard. This section reads: "Tnat we, recogniamg the sovereignty of the ' people, do, in response to tbe demand made through their rep reieuta ives in the last Legislature, pronounce m favor of tbe submission to tm in f t their adoption or rejec tion ot tne proposed const ltuiiona amnd nent." The whisky men declared that it would ruiu tlia piriyt) even acknowl edge that people bad the right to vote on the prohibition amen .'merit, and the temperance men clamored f r the acknowledgement. It seemed for a moment that the convention would he broken up, but ust as matters were at their worst, ilouk p .ured oil on the troubled waters and ofl'.-re 1 a resolution in lieu of aet tion 9. The minority report raving been killed. Honk's resolution simply ac knowledged that the people have the riyiit to vote upon tne prohibition mi ndineut. Thin was adopted, ar.d the convention edjourned. The Executive Committee organized to-night by eleeiiog A. M. liugues, jr., clisirman; John V. Houk, secre tory; John J. Littleton and J. O. Na pier, assistant secretaries. J0XESB0R0, ARK. Congreatlonal Race Waxing; Warm-The Oat look. The ISPtOUL TO TBS AFFS1L.I Jonesboro, Ahk , June 16.

ANOTHER DrS WORK WITHOUT MATERIAL RESULTS. A Attempt te Drag ! the Wood row Case Speech by Dr. Win. E. Boggs. farioiALTO the am.l Louikville, Ky., Jane M. Another day's work in the Converse chiux'b mudtlle has ended, but it leaves the ca e no nearer trial than it was a x months ago, and, to a man on the hack bench, it looks as if the beginning of te actual trial is many days off, white the ending is too far off to be thought ol. The whole of the day was ton turned in a discutsion oi the second part of the commission's report, and except ons thereto toy the deters. The qius'iona exc-iptd o were in t' e deposition of Mr. J. La'on Wi s-n. These, it was claimed, coveted too wide a range, and would open tbe famous Woodrow case at this end of the line. Fioin indicatii ns, ilrs fa mous church chestnut will be drapged into the mess, anyhow, as well as any other muety troubles that may ba sieep'ng on tbe shelf. The questions excepted to were as follows: FirM. As a mat er cf fact, did Dr. Wordiow work to the detriment of Columbia Thtoloaical Seminary on account of his troub'es there? Savnd. As a matter cf fact, have you found Dr. Wood'ow a graapicg, avaracione man, or tt.e contrary? Third. Have vou any recollection of tbe It's of fusda invistsd with Bn 9, Brown & Co.? Fourth. Wes Dr. Wocdrow a mem ber of the committee which investi gated that matter? Fifth. Was the fidelity cr groj fa th of thatcciuinifsoa bioughti.to que tion? Si.ilh. Did Dr. Woodrow ever act in a dishon:st or ditreputable way to secure a loan for Bones, Brown A Co. ? fOL. T. W. BULLITT, the eharo-eyel lawyer who Is wa'ch irg the Couveise side of the ca'e, moved that the prosecution take the eta r, in order to introduce papers re ferred to aijd to identify those wbh h hid V een admitted as a pait of the lee ml md separate them from those wl.i.'h were not. He made an argu ment pg to the legality of the indict ment iu i hat connection. He sta'ed that three of the charges in the in dic'ment were unt'ue, and that ti e course he suggested should he mir r ued iu order t irrive at the t nth of the charges. THE rev. dr. iiji.os opposed this motion. He raid the I oi nt made by Col. Bullitt was tint some o! tne spei illca'ions were m true. Heerd the conit wri asked to bear certain po tions of the t jtimoi y to a6 if the ep ciflca i' ns w. re true, a d th-n decide wl e her it should hear the rest. The defense l ad pluul-d n t gnihy to all the count i in ths in-' di. tuient, and anch a cc.urao rs tl.ey asked to have the court puuun would oveuh'ow ail the lawe oi the a'resbv tery. lit) lead a paragraph from the ml j o: dkc'p inj as to the course a c.onrt sbouid piliauo in invesligatinc charges. The learned counsel had asked tbat all the laws be overthrown It was provided in the covenant that aftr the preliminaries had been arranged the witntrsc forthe prosecu tion and thrn tnoe for the defense should behi ird. With that peculiarity of the human mind possessed by all men more or le;s, and by some to a larga extent, tne lacaity ot only see ing one Bide of the question at the time, the counsel had asked that bis own opinion and convenience be con suited and the law set at naught. The pr-iprsi ion was simply monstrous and should not be enter ained. TBI DISCUSSION took a w.de range and branched out on many subjects. Tbe Converse side claimed that under some of the ques tions they would havs to go into tbe queetim whether Dr. Woodrow bad injured Columbia Seminary, aod tbe inv: itment of funds with Bones, isrown s to , and also as to Ur. Wood rows character, finally, alter the Presbytery had got eo badly nixed and tanyled up that the mndeia'or did not snow whether lie was standing on his Lead or feet, somrone moved that a rest lie taken, while a yonng minis ter, who had watched the proceedings in open-eyed astonishment, be or dained. Ttiis was done, and the Pres bytery Rdjourned until 8 o'chek p in., when the yonng minister preached his t'ial sermon. THE CONVERSE CASE comes up at 6.0 clock in the morn ing. A gf-ntlcman, wholly disinter ested one way or the other, said to night that from all he could gather from the signs the final verdict, if it is reach d during theprrsent generation, would ba acqn't al, because it will never ba possible to iro throneh all the testimony to suit the views of bo'h s (les.
