V. is "vindicated." Hubbard's nominated. For. once the Pioneer Press was right. Windom didn't dare to come. Tommy Simpson called for ice water, but somehow hi 3 paper collar wilted. Windom might as well have come him self as to have sent John Sherman. John Sherman's browsing around the state house the day before the convention didn't hurt Hubbard any. The old gang don't get up as early in the morning as they used to. The early birds were there before them. The moss-backs didn't want a free bal lot or an honest one, but they could not make any use of that strategy. The Winona specials t»'d the country that Windom was at the head of the Wi nona delegation, but that was a special lie. The Hubbard men are in a similar situation to the Hoadly men in ©hio. They secured their candidate but lost their state committee. Ii would puzzle tue oldest inhabitant to know jii3t exactly who Mort. Cdwiler nominated for governor last night. As near as an able corps of reporters could ascertain he was trying to announce the name of Windomramseypillsburydavis austinwashburndunnellhubbard. His can didate probably won . Knxte Nelson had a splendid chance to upset the moss covered state central com mittee, but he lost his opportunity by try ing to give fair play. He could have cut off debate and laid the committee on the table, but tried to be fair and allow the debate, and in turn had his own wind cut oil. When Knute gets older he won't bother mich about giving thai crowd fair play. It isn't a game that pays. A couple of weeks ago Judge Hoar, as a member of the board of trustees ef Har vard college, voted against conferring the degree of LL. D. upon Gov. Butler. At the commencement exercises yesterday he had the privilege of occupying a post of honor second to that of the governor, and in the exercises cut no figure at all, while Old Strabismus was the lion of the day. The whirligig of time brings about its re venges very quickly sometimes. THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION. Between one and two o'clock this morn ing the maddest and most disgusted Re publican state convention which ever met in St. Paul adjourned. Both sides and all sides aad everybody were disgusted. The moss-back Windom-Pillsburyites were sorely discomfited over the failure of their efforts to clean out the old ticket, and the Habbard-Gilinan-Kittelson crowd were un happy over the loss of the state central committee at the conclusion of the ser vices. It was a memorable convention from the fact that it developed the irrepres sible warfare whiuh is in progress in the Republican ranks. It was a unique con ye at ion from the fact that Mart Chandler announced that Gov. Hubbard's administration had been a success in spite of the "corruption' which surrounded it. It was an encouraging convention from the fact that it endorsed the bolt against Windom last winter, ar.d the saint ly Hicks announced that nominations were no longer binding on any member of the party. It was a funny conveEtion from the fact that John S. Pillsbury and Capt. Blakely wailed in unison, about half past 1 this morning, for harmony and adjournment, in order to keep contrcl of the central committee, and the moment they won for got all about harmony and cheered over the : r victory. It was a turbulent convention, a croak ing convention, a mad convention, and only |lacked a little nerve to have had a regular explosion. The absence of the necessary nerve is to be regretted. It ITU THE VEUOCU ICY THEItK IS XO SI CIl WORlt AS FA 11.. The alarm of the Republican party at the situation in Ohio is quite without a par allel. The chief topic of the able editori als of the Republican papers, from one end of the country to the other, is the Ohio canvas. Especial pains are taken to mis represent Judge Hoadly, and in so doing it is found neccessary to denounce a large part of the well established record of the Republican party, and the portion too, to which Republicans were onoe ac customed to point with pride. Judge Hoadly's father was a Jacksonian Demo crat, and in the earlier portion of his man hood the Judge was an admirer of Martin Van Buren, and especially in the barn burner period through which many Demo crats drifted into free soilism, and from which th« Republican party sprang. Judge Hoadly is showered with abuse be cause he was an anti-slavery man, and acted with the Republican party when it had some principle and was not as now all for the spoils, and nothing for the state. Jadge Hoadly makes no secret of his former Re publican affiliation, and in hi? brief address accepting the Democratic nomination made a manly allusion to the spirit which h9 understODd t:> actuate the forces which brought about his nomination. "With a heart overflowing with emotion 1 thank you for that small part of this vote which consign* of an expression of confidence in my self. I say that small part, because no man knows belter than 1 that i have been chosen ov er older and better soldiers of the Democracy, not because personal confidence ami affection toward me existed, but because it was the. hope and belief that through my nomination notice might be given more effectually to the world that the fences were down, that the gates were open, and that the hospitable heart of the Ohio Democracy was open to receive recruits, no matter of what race, color, or previous parti sanship. To be nominated by such a conven tion over such more worthy antagonists is an honor that ought to fill the ambition of one's lifetime and completely occupy his mind— to be nominated by a convention pres'ded over by my oldest friend, by whose side from I*9lo to 1814, 1 fought as a boy in my col lege society the battles of the Van Bureu De mocracy." Below may be found a sample of current Republican comment, which is worth putting on record as an exhibit of the depth of unmanli ness to which the franlic old spoils-eaters descend to do despite to the bravest and purest man as well as the ablest, who has been a candidate of any party in Ohio in well nigh forty years. Here is a fiat confession by the candidate him self that he ought not to nave been nominated, with an almost Peckaaiffiao profession of humil ity,, concluding with a lot of sentimental gush about his college life as a boy of forty years ago . A Democratic candidate for any office, any where, must be made of sterner stuff than this to insure success. Then the finical judge excuses himself for having "gone over" to the Free Soil ami Republican party nearly forty years ago on toe ground that lie hated slavery, which De . o crats loved. But fearing, and justly, that he had gone too far in his confession, he begs to be forgiven for the indiscretion of having hated slavery! Having thus in a weak and dastardly way laid himself o]>en to a slap in the face, Gen. Ward, the defeated Bourbon candidate, pro ceeded to administer it in good set termn, de claring that he (Judges Hoadly) had not ren dered one-tenth part of the service to the Demo cratic party tiiat he (Ward J had. Such stuff is heathenish, and the jackals of partisan hate are overdoing the matter. Who was "Gen. Ward the defeated Bour. bon candidate."' Why an old silver-gray hunker whig, of the school of men who have stood still for fifty years, a man who has been in the Democratic party more by sufferance than from any sympathy be tween himself and the organization, and during whose whole association with it his constant cry has been that of the horse leech's daughter, "Give," "Give," "me office." Who was Salmon P. Chase: First a Democrat, then a Republican, and last a Democrat, who left the Republican party, as did Judge Hoadly, because of its cor ruptions, yet Mr. Chase was highly enough esteemed as a Republican to have been a prominent candidate for its Presidential nomination, having the support of Ohio for the position. It has been esteemed no great sin for a Dem ocrat to have come into the Republican ! party, as for instance, Stanley Mathews, I who was Mr. Buchanan's United States at torney for the southern district of Ohio, and is now a United States supreme judge, appointed by Garfield and confirmed by a Republican senate and Mahone. Cnrl Schurz affords another conspicuous in stance of a Democrat going over to the Republicans, but nobody has booted him out or attacked his motives, and so the list might be multiplied, for Ohio is full of Dem ocrats now Republicans and Republicans now Democrats. Horace Greoley left the .Republican party and accepted the Demo cratic nomination for President. He was abused and maltreated after the manner in which the blood-hounds are pursuing Hoadly, but it was the noblest act of his life turning his back 011 the party which had grown sa corrupt he could not longer abide with it. Judge Lyman Trumbuil, of Illinois a dis tinguished statesman who sat in the United States Senate as a Republican, saw the work and drift of the party with which Mr. Greeley could not walk, and he, too, joined the Democracy, and is now acting with that party to-day. Hon. EL f. Spalding, one of Ohio's most distinguished jurists, was first a Democrat, and in IS4B found himself first in sympathy with Van Buren and the free soil movement which followed the "barn-burners." He served in Congress as ;.:;•„ publican, but the serried infamies of the Grant regime caused him to believe it to be the duty of patriotic meu to turn away from the party whose misfortune it was to have fallen into the control of cor rupt and graceless men. Following his convictions of his highest duty he has since acted with the Democratic party and was a member of the convention which nominated Hoadly. Judge EL F- Paine, of Ohio, is an other conspicuous man who fought the battles of free soil and anti-slavery with Wade and Giddings, and stood by the Re publican party until the moth of corrup tion made him cease to hope for better things, and he is in the Democratic ranks. Geo. W. Julian, of Indiana, the son-in-law of Joshua R. Giddings, the anti-slavery leader, is now as earnest and avowed a Democrat as can be found in the country. His anti-slavery sertiments rendered him the peer of Gerritt Smith and Wm. Lloyd Garrison, but when the Republican party cast off its garment of purity, foreswore its best traditions, and became a cove nant with rottenness and spoils, he cast his lot with the Democratic party. These instances, which might be added to at any length, show that Judge Hoadly does not by any means stand alone, in having ceased to act with the Republican party from motives of the highest patriotism and purity. It is not in the bounds of decency for the Republi can organs to assail Hoadly as is their daily custom, one of their favorite shafts of venom being to say, "the Judge is a 'turn-coat,' and the average Democrat is as much opposed to changing his principles as he is his drinks . " This, and much more of the same sort, is the spirit mani fested by the trembling party of tax-eat ers, who happen to know enough to know that the dark clouds of defeat compass them about, and from the slough of their despondency they proclaim the hatef alness that possesses them. Over in the Democratic camp "the fences are down and the hospitable heart of the Ohio Democracy is open to receive recruits, no matter of what race, color or previous partisanship." A feel ing of confidence and justice gives assurance that the right will prevail. How John MoSweeney at the Columbus convention sounded forth the fiery trumpet of victory as he eloquently said: And now fellow-citizens, that same spirit of the fathers of which I have been speaking, and whicn has made our homes pleasant here, an swered in the spirit of true philanthropy that great inquestion, "Am I my brother's keeper?" Whenever and wherever that question is asked of the downtrodden and oppressed of other lands, yes, we are in that sense our brother's keeper, and in that spirit of the old Democratic party which goes forth in sympathy across oceans and mountains to aid and comfort the oppressed whenever the tyrant's hand is raised, whether it be over; some poor bleeding back beneath the Russian knout or over in the Green island of THE ST. PAUL DAILY GLOBE, THURSDAY MORNING, .JTXE 28, 1883. the sea where, under quick trials, the victims ascend the scaffold and step off to glory. Wherever oppression raises its head; wherever the tear of the oppressed falls and his hand is uplifted to us. the Democrat's great heart goes out in sympathy for him. We are g >ing to nominate the ticket to-day that is to bo elected. We are going through no sham performances. The victory this fall will be the forerunner of what is to come, and will tend to permanently transfer the grand old state of Ohio from the. Republican roll over to the Democrats. And let us see if we can't do better with it. We are so determined that in the print ing of oar Democratic lexicons we will have no such word as fail. The signs of the times are propitious. Vic tory is in the air. We want to follow i:;> what we did last year, with a little in addition. Let us determine this year to vote for prohibition of the Republican party of Ohio, and thereby constitutionally — you know it must bo consti tutionally — and without waiting for any su preme court but the people, coirect the evils arising from Republican traffic in Republican souls and bribing of legislative votes. If anybody asks, "Watchman, what of the night?" say. "There is no night?" On the misty mountain tops the jocund day stands on tip-toe and points to a glorious victory. Wheel the old Democratic column around. On, on ward to the conte=t There is no such words as "fail." ALL AKOUNIi THE GLOIJI^'.

WHEAT GOES OFF TWO CENTS MORE Corn Also a Sufferer in Sympathy With i Its Big Brother. PORK TAKES ANOTHER TUMBLE. And Armour's Personal Attention to the Deal Will foe Necessary . j A VERY DULL Dll ON WALL ST. ■ Scarcely Anything Doing in Stocks, and a Decline Expected. CHICAGO. I Special Telecrain to the Globe. 1 Chicago, June 27.— 1t is freely predict ed here that Phil. Armour's northern fish ing excursion will come to an abrupt ter mination, and the genial face of the great trader in hog products is daily expected to again illuminate his busy office. Matters on 'change are going against Armour's interests strongly, and his personal atten tion is certainly needed. The provision market is in very bad shape, each day marking a fresh decline. Nobody seems to want the stuff at any figure. Packers themselves continue to sell, and although a shipping demand is springing up, the fuct has little influence, seemingly. All markets were weak to-day. Corn closed about where it did yesterday afternoon, but wheat and oat? lower. The rally in wheat on call yesterday was entirely wiped out on the board to-day. A very fair business was transacted in a speculative way . Early in the day the feeling was stronger, and prices }'" \; c higher at the opening, beiu^ a continua tion of the firmness developed yesterday afternoon and influenced probably by the wet and rainy weather. Later, however, the feeling became weaker, and with but slight fluctuations prices suffered a decline Of 2@2jL£c. The weakness was attributed to larger offerings, caused by some dis quieting rumors, and also by the reported weakness and depression in the French markets, caused by reported large offerings of wheat from India. At the decline the market ruled quiet and strong, advancing about %%%c, and finally closed abont the same as on 'change yesterday. On call values were }.i hi J£« less, and 750.000 bush els sold at the decline. July at one time to-day was offered at I'jjC and June at $I.oo^. August closed at £1.0-4 having touched .^l.OS l^. There were seventy-two cars received and but 7,111 bushels shipped. There would un doubtedly have been a still further decline had not theie been good buying from the shorts. It is conced there must be a con tinuance of the export demand if we are to have a solid basis for prices. Tnere is no support in the shape of large buying orders and each little advance brings out free selling by scalpers, who have a trifling profit on their holdings. While every de cline causes large blocks of long wheat, which holders have at last to drop at enor mous losses to be thrown on the market. In corn business was good on shipping and speculative account, and no very im portant change occured. Receipts con tinue fair and shipments moderate. Early in the day the market ruled l^'n '.jc high er, but later, under large offerings, and influenced somewhat by the decline in wheat an easier feeling was developed, and prices declined x o ;.' f'4'c below the outside figures reached, and finally closed about l^c higher than on 'change yesterday. ( >n call there was a trifle more firmness. The strength is due to crop apprehensions. Everingham & Co.'s weekly report from their correspondents, covering twelve states, shows a good stand of corn at loG points, a fair stand at 362, and poor at 92. At ;5, r )4 points the ground had been culti vated once; at I<VJ twice: and at 41 three times. Corn reported to be cleaner and more thoroughly worked at this date than at the same time in 1.-^:2. The receipts here to day were twenty-four eirs: the ship ments 169,000 bushels and the lake en gagements 120,000 bushels. Cash oats sold sparingly at 32^@33j^c The demand was light and entirely specu lative, and the offerings were all light. The speculative market was unsettled. There were <juite free offerings of June and July, while the demand was light. There was 'y Ijc decline in prices. The deferred futures were somewhat improved early, but owing to the decline in near futures the advance was lost. No. 2 white oats in store nominal. Shippers were not buying. Sample lots easy. Orders seem to be limited, and buyers were slow to take hold. Just about a fair volume of business was done. For June and July deliveries there was a heavy mar ket. The market closed at inside prices all around and weak, but on the call gained a trifle better tone, and perhaps 1 j J c better figures. August and September, some operators think, are about low enough for a time until the crop is fully assured. Rye was quiet and a shade easier, but the offerings were not large enough to cause any noticeable decline. Mi unsettled and weak feeling prevailed in the market for hog products to-day, and a farther material decline in price may be recorded. The offerings in speculative account were quite free, and the demand was not particularly argent, ex cepting from shorts. Outside operators are not inclined to do much trading, and local speculators are restricting their busi ness considerably. In a general way it may be said there is an inclination to set tle business and ascertain just exactly how merchants are situated preparatory to en gaging very extensively in speculations again. When the deliveries are made on the opening of the month considerable capital will be released, and the trade placed on a more substantial footing. The shipping demand continues moderate, and no doubt would bejnereased if the market here was held with more steadiness. Re ceipts in hog* were quite large and prices ruled lower, which assisted in depressing the market for product. The receipts of product were fair and the shipments quite liberal, espe cially of meats and lard. Foreign advices exhibited a weaker feeling in that quarter and prices were reduced as on lard and on bacon in the Liverpool market. Reports from eastern markets showed an easier feeling in that quarter. The offerings of .mess pork were quite liberal, and the de- 1 mand fairly active. The feeling was un settled ar.d weak, and prices fluctuated considerably early in the day, but during the latter part of the day declined quite rapidly. At the opening prices were ~,a 10c higher than at the close yesterday? but gradually declined 4">y ooc on the whole range and closed steady. Shipping de mand moderate in the way of filling small orders. Cash lots quotable at $16:30^ 10.40. Prices were steady during the afternoon. Tbe market for lard attracted considerable attention, and trading was active, especially for future delivery . The offerings were free and the demand active and mainly from shorts. The market opened rather tame at yesterday's closing prices, and ruled with considerable steadiness during the first kour on 'change. A weaker feeling prevailed later, and prices gradually receded ,20<a 2"» c per 100 lbs, and closed CDtnporatively steady at the decline. The shipping inquiry was moderate. About 10,000 tierces vrere forwarded within the past twenty-four hours, making about 45.000 for the past six days. Cash in fair demand and quotable at at $9.25 @ 9.45. There were li), 700 hogs received here to day.and while light guides were scarce and steady at yesterday's figures, heavy lots suffered a loss of 15c per 100. M. S. Nichols & Co. are experiencing considerable difficulty in settling up, ap parently not being yet prepared to pay 100 cts. but ard expected to get squared Bh >rtly. SEW IORK. I Special Telegram to the Globe. | Nev,- Yobk, June 27. — Prices in most instances were higher in the early deal ings . Chicago, Burlington &. Quincy sold at 124, and Manitoba at 124<g£. For a time the market looked nery much like an 1 improving one, but it had a set back about j 1 o'clock, and the advance was lost. Den j ver dropped to -tl 3 4 and Western Union Ito 85^. The volume of business con j tinues light, and at times it was exceeding [!y dull. The decline in Denver made the j market a little feverish during the af ter- J noon. The weakness in grain and provis ion markets and some unfavorable rumors helped to settle prices. There was no ani mation in the final dealings. Operators seemed to be awaiting the settlement of the troubles here, and showed but little desire to do any business either way. The weather throughout the northwest to-day ;is reported as favorable for the growing j crops. An iinpresssion prevails that Van derbilt's orders to buy have been placed a I lilile below current figures, and tnat stocK has nearly reached bottom. The near completion of the West Shore is still the war cry of sellers. The general opinion in the room bas been that not much can be expected of the market until after the 4th of July. The check which the growing speculation in stocks received in the break in the Chicago markets has been suc ceeded by great dullness. For the time being the fluctuations have been left to the traders of the exchange to make. These are mostly speculating on the bear side, and assail one stock after another accord ing as support seems to be lacking. The loaning rates for stocks indicate a mate rial increase in the short interest within the past few days, which may afford an opportunity for a sharp upward turn. It is quite evident the leaders of the movement for an advance still hold the bulk of their stocks, which stubbornly resist the efforts made to depress them. There is little doubt they were prepared to induce a considerable rise in prices at the time when the failure of McGeogh in Chi cago was announced, and they were proba bly prepared to renew the movement on the continuance of favorable conditions. The leading holders of stocks, Morgan, Smith, Osborne, the younger Vanderbilts, and many prominent brokers, do not ex press themselves any the less confidently now of a rise in stocks, and they claim that the crop and general business outlook warrants it. Messrs. Keene, Woerishoffer and others, on the other hand, believe lower prices must be made. Meanwhile, the trading is of exceeding limited propor tions—a mere broker's market. A Bridegroom Rejected at the Altar. [Denver Tribune.] Society people of Albuquerque were en veloped in amazement List night when the news wa« rapidly spread through the city of a sensation attending the arranged wedding at the residence of Mr. Edward Powell. The intended bride was Miss Ida Smedley, and the bridegroom elect Mr. A. L. Stiver?. Mi. -5 Smedley is a niece of Mrs. Powell, and one of the brightest and most charming yonng ladies that has been introduced iuto Albuquerque society, while Mr. Stivers is a wealthy cattle grower, the owner or' an extensive rauch near Almosa. in the western bart of Valencia county, lie figured before thepublic some months ago m a war with sheep men. Everything wa= arranged for the wedding, the wine was on ice, the cakes baked and at the appointed hour the Rev. Mr. Keistler put in his appearance. No cards had been issued for the wedding, but there were present quite a number of prominent ladies and gentlemen, immediate friends*f the family. The lady and gentleman soon to be made man and wife were attired to suit the occasion, and stood up before the minister of the Gospel to pronounce their solemn vows. "Will you take thi3 woman for your law ful wife :"' asked the Rev. Mr. Keietler. "I will," responded the bridegroom elect. "Will you take this man for your lawful husband f continued the minister. "My God! I can't, I can't, I can't," was the pitiful response of the young lady, who, bursting into tears, r ashed into an adjoining apartment. The ladies went to her assist^ ance and advised with her, and the rejected bridegroom- tried to persuade her to change her determination and become his wife, but it was to no purpose. The young lady would not change her mind. Miss Smedley has received attentions from Mr. Stivers since last winter. They have peen engaged to marry since some months ago. But then the young lady has since entertained grave doubts as to their compatibility of temperament, yet, look ing on her engagement as irrevocable, she has allowed matters to proceed even to the wedding ceremony, when she found it impossible to pronounce the words that would make her a life partner of a man whom she evidently did not )9ve.

Queenstown, June 27. — The American rifle team arrived this morning in excel lent health and spirits, and will proceed to Liverpool, accompanied by Sir Henry Halford and Mr. Waller of the British team, who met here. A warm reception will be given them on arrival by a com mittee of citizens headed by the mayor. Dublin, June 27. — Parnell in a speech at Monaghan in the interest of Healy's candidacy for the commons said his party intended to endeavor to amend the land act so as to make reduced rents date from the time of application therefor to the court and for a proviso that the tenants be allowed for improvements, some within thirty or forty years, and so that the lease holders shall be admitted to the benefits of the act. The court of appeal have render ed a decision in an important test case, Ohane vs. Nelson, on which 40,000 other cases depended.

St. Louis, June 1:7. — Word comes from Last St. Louis this morning that the river continues to fall slowly, and in all that section of country west of the Chicago it Alton road's track at Newport, JSameoki and Mitchell, the water has fell nearly if not quite a foot, but in that part of the bottom east of the above named railroad, into which a steady stream is still pouring through the crevasse near Newport, the water is rising and will continue to creep up un^il the common level is reached. Ca hoka creek also continues to run, and its water has reached the tracks tunning uorth from Relay depot, and between, that point and Bridge Junction. This can be quickly remedied, however, by building a levee along the eastern side of the tracks, which no doubt will be done at once, as these tracks are important for the passage of the repair trains at work still further north. The work progresses rapidly and well at the break in the Cnicago ifc Alton track, near Newport, and Superintendent Bates is still confident he will have the trestle ready for trains to cross this evening.

The land is covered wit-i wheat, corn, oats and potatoes, which, reckoned at *.'!() per acre, a rather low estimate, makes the actual loss to crops alone $210,000. In that section of St. Clair county, ea>t and south of East Carondolet, so fax as at present kiiown 5,400 acres of wheat, corn and pota toes are under watwr. The crops are esti mated to be worth $40 per acre, giving an aggregate loss of $216,000. These losses are in four townships and comprise only a small part of the damage done in the American bottom.
