MORTON BOOM STiRTED
New York Convention Declares in
Favor of His Candidacy.
STATE TICKET NOMINATED
Platform Adopted at Saratoga De
mands Enforcement of the Sunday
Laws, IndomcM Ballot, llotonu, and
Score?, tliu Administration Finan
cial -Questions Skillfully Handled.
Saratoga, N. Y., Sept. 17. The State
Republican convention closed Us session to
night after following very closely the work
mapped out by its leaders. It named this
ticket for presentation to the people of the
State In November next:
For Secretary of State John Palmer,
of Albany.
For Comptroller James E. Roberts, ot
Erie.
For State Treasurer A. B. Colvln, of
Warren. ,
For State Engineer C. W. Adams, of
O neidaf
For Attorney General F. E. Hancock,
of Onondaga.
Tor Judge of the Court of Appeals
Cclora E. Martin, of Broome.
The platform demands enforcement of
the Sunday liquor law and preservation
of the Sabbath.
It ccores the Democratic administration
for failing to defend the rights of American
citizens resident or traveling In foreign
countries .and for permitting foreign coun
tries to encroach on the Wcsternhcmisphcre.
The tariff and the handling ot the de
ficiency question by the last Democratic
Congress received condemnation. A sound
and stable currency, giving the people a
dollar's worth for a dollar, is Indorsed.
CREDITED TO LAST FALL.
The return of prosperity is hailed as re
sulting from tlie election of a Republican
Congress, giving confidence to the people
in the assurance that no further tariff tink
ering will be possible.
The Ignorance and unwise policy of the
Democrats In passing nn unconstitutional
income tax Is referred to, and the favorable
'record of tho Republicans in Congress In
their opposition to that law.
Gov. Morton's wise and patriotic od
inlnlstrationlsindorsedandfcCscandldacyfor President formally launched.
The dangers to the people of-a return of
the Democratic party tc-power in this State
are portrayed, asserting that the same
men who have been repudiated by the voters
arc still In charge of the affairs of the
Democratic party in this State, and that
their return topower willmcan butarcpetl
tlon of the old outrages.
BALLOT REFORM ENDORSED.
The Raines ballot reform law Is pointed
to as the best enactment for ballot reform
yet passed in this State.
The platform further bets forth that the
demands of the people In the city of New
York have been granted In reform legisla
tion. That it was a close following of the work
mapped out was evident from the fact of
the security of tho State ticket being made
possible by the vote of one man.
When the morning sun broke over Sara
toga It saw such Iron-bound plans for the
convention that It was concedeg'inat there
would be no friction, and tbat the plans
ot the State committee would be carried
out. After the opening session there ap
peared on (he horizou a cloud of discon
tent that grew so rapidly that at 3 o'clock
the fale of the State officers seemed to
be sealed against renomlnatlnn. The trou
ble arose over, the contest for seats in the
first district and hinged on the seating of
the contesting delegation, headed by Con
gressman Maliany.
ALL SNAGS AVERTED.
With everything running smoothly the
leaders were suddenly confronted with
the statement made by Stale Committeeman
George Urban and Senator Pearsons that
if the Maliany delegation was seated the
Erie county delegation would leave the
convention, and Mr Roberts' name would
be withdrawn from the convention, thus
breaking the slate.
When the convention met the committee
reported against Mr. Mahany. It was
learned tbat the vote was 1G against and
15 for, the deciding vole having been east
by .Mr Wheeler, of Utica. Thus was the
catastrophe averted.
The next reareit approach to a break
in the plans came when Warner Miller in
troduced his resolution for tl.c protection
of the American Sabbath and the enrry
Ingoutof the excite laws. Thelcadurs who
bad proclaimed against any excise action
accepted the situation and the result was
that' all friction ceased. Action on en
largement of the State committee was
tabled ard local Sunday option forcounties
was also killed.
CONDUCTED IK GERMAN.
Drewmnsterx Contlno All Proceed
ings to That Tongue.
Baltimore, Sept. 17. The seventh an
nual conventfon of the United States Brew
masters' Association was formally opened
in Germanio Macnnercbor Hall this morn
ing by President Leonhardt Michel, of
Brooklyn, N. Y. About 150 delegates
answered to the call of the roll.
The president read his annual address in
German and all the proceedings of the con
vention were conducted In that language.
The president's address was devoted to the
Internal workings of the organization.
He discussed the employment of appren
tices, and recommended the appointment ot
a committee to revUe the constitution and
by-laws. He also suggested the propri
ety ot annual meetings hercafterand there
duction of the membership fee. The re
ports of tho secretary and treasurer were,
read and adopted.
"Where- tUo Division Is.
Editor Times: As much has been spoken
recently nboat the "Division" and tho in
tention of the excise board to refuse licenses
in that section to saloon-keepers, I would
like to bo permitted space to correct a false
impression in the public mind In regard
to tho boundary lines ot that nefarious
locality.
Prudish people, who are too nice to call
things by their rigti t names, usually refer to
the "Division" as "Eouth of tbo Avenue,"
and this indefinite manner of expressing the
name of tho place gives rise to the opinion
that all places south ef tbo Avenue, as
well as the south side of the Avenue Itself,
arc a part of that Infernal section.
This Is very wrong; does an Injustice to
the business people and residents of a re
spectable, section of the city, and I feel
sure that you, Mr. Editor, will correct the
error when the facts arc made known to
you.
The "Division," as known to the old real-,
dents of this city, at whtcb your cor
respondent claims Uio lienor of being one,
extends betwwen Ninth and Fourteenth
streets on the cast and west and by C and D
on the north. These arc the boundary
Uncs of tho "Division," and the south side
of tlie Avenue and E street aro Just as frea
from the moral turpitude of that vile spot
as Iowa Circle or Connecticut avenue.
The area of the "Division" Is already too
large withoutaccredltlnglt with tbcaddltlen
of respectable neighborhoods, thereby de
preciating property awned and occupied by
good pconle. D. it.
PUZZLED WHATTO ANSWER
President Griswold Questions
the Anacostia Railway Men.
THEY FEAR A SEDUCTION
Anted to Reply to a .'series ot Inter
rogatories Affection; the Manage
ment of it Car Lino Tlie Employes
Are Fearful That Ho Contemplates
a Move Upon Them.
There Is good reason for believing that
some decislvo action as to the future ot his
road will be taken by President ariswold,
ot the Anacostia line, before the first of
the coming-month. A Times reporter ran
across a circular letter ot tho president
yesterday, in which he asks some questions
which Indicate the proposed change.
The more important of these questions,
which are addressed to the employes, are
as follows:.
"First. Which would you consider the
best servico to the public, two-horse cars
every twelve minutes, or one-horse cars
every six minutes?
"Second. What do you consider the
greatest good to the greatest number, the
.-niploymcnt ot bcventy-slx men at low
wages, Ihirty-elght men at fair wages, or
nineteen at large wages?
Third. In reducing the number of cars
and the number ot your employes, bow
would you accomplish It? By drawing lots;
by taking alternate names; by retaining
the oldest; by retaining thine who had
best served you?
"Fourth. Do you believe in open, secret,
or no inspection?
"Fifth. Do good-looking driven, In uni
form, well kept horses and clean cars In
duce riding?"
The oilier questions relate to the drivers
and conductors' opinions as to tho cost ot
equipment and the deterioration of stock.
WTIAT THC MEN SAY .
There is a great deal ot speculation
among tho men as to what all this means.
Some ot them understand that the questions
Indicate a s weeping reduction of the number
ot men and that the president Is dcslrlous
of having men to be parties to the reduction.
"The way some of us look at it is this,"
said one ot tlie men last night. "We have
been given until the 2l6t to make answers
to these questions, although we are not told
that- wo will be obliged to answer them.
"I think tbat tlie second question is a very
crafty one, and the most important of all.
Mr. Griswold, by those questions, has cer
tainly, to my mind, made it plain tbat there
will be at some near day a reduction ot the
force. He may put It on the ground that the
company is making no money; he may put It
on any other.
"He knows that If he throws a lot of
men out of a Job there will be a tick.
By this vote of the men, and that Is really
whatit Ib.he will feel Justified and willtell
tbepublic tbat themen agreed to thechange
having had plenty of time to consider It.
He knows that no one will vote for seventy
six men at low wages because lowwages
means no living at all.
"There is a chance that there will be a
good vote for tbirty-eighttnenat good wages
and the wages is (brown out as a bait.
And there is something very tcmptla gin the
olfcr to run the road with nineteen men at
large wages. Hecountsoueach man hoping
that he will beone of the nineteen.
"Then In the third question It seems to be
a fair proposition that he shall retain those
who had served him best, but he will be
the judgeof that fact. In general wedon't
like to answer the questions at alt and I
don't suppose that many will send In re
plies. We might be helping to get ourselves
out of a Job,
WHAT HIS OBJECT IS
"Another thing is this: If Mr. Gris
wold was fair in these questions he would
have declared, in the paper, what bis ob
ject was. It is plain tons that beisasUng
questions to which he already has the an
swers, because If anybody knows how to
run a road under any of the exudations he
proposes, it Is he himself."
"What are you piing to do about It?
"Nothing; I have an Idea that It will not
be signed to any great extent and that will
settle the scheme.
"If Mr. Griswold should have in his
possession ouranswer at the time he wants
to make arbitrary changes affecting the
men and there should be a protest, he
would merely produce this vote of the
men and tbey would bo debarred from
further protest. Our mouths are closed.
Our policy is to ray rothli g and to wait
for results, which, I think, will be soon
apiiarcnt.
"We have made complaint to him within
the past week of certain cares, in which
we consider that he has dealt unfairly with
ourmen, ard be has not shown a disposition
to treat the cares promptly or in accord
ance with the facts."
The trouble was on account of fuspend
lng Drivers Lusby, Jones,-and Moore The
men were put off from periods of one
month to two months,ar.dtheanalrbe;ng
reported to the Protective Street Railway
Union yesterday, a committee from that
body, consisting of President Laurence
and Mr. Casey, called on President Gris
wold and put the matter before that of
ficial, who told President Laurence to
put his grievance in writing, which will be
done. The men claim the punishment is
excessive if not uncalled for.
Prisoners Defended Themselves.
Memphis, Tenn., Sept. 17. A mob of
sixty five men stormed the Jail at Lex
ington, Tenn., last night to lynch Harri
son Fuller and another negro, confined
for rape. The negroes defended themselves
and shot four or five of the men, driving
them off.

narry K. Balch and George W. Day, the

bogus check on Air David Currier, of the
War Department, for $100, about a month
ago, as exclusively stated in The Times,
were brought to this city last nifiut from
lUItli- re by Detective George-""- Boyd.
For the past twenty-one days they havo-
been in jail in that cityavraitlng the action
of the grand Jury on a charge of beating
hotels. They were Indicted there yester
day for the of tense, and at unee turned over
to the Washington authorities.

STARTED 'ON THUIR LARK.
About the 1st of July the two started
from Lowell. Jtess.r on a lark, which
ended with tlieirftrrcsTln Baltimore. They
drank heavily wherever they went, and
by the time they reached this city, early
In August, their nieans were exhausted,
and they cat alwul for some n.enns of
replenUlilng their empty jiockethooks.
Working friends nt ihelrrcsimUlve families
teemed the fastest way, and they started in
accordingly.
ISalih was well acquainted with a num
ber of Dartmouth students, aiid several
members ot the Dartmouth alumni in this
thlstily, weretheiirsuictlrus. Auuralier
of hotels suffered cKo, and finally, when
It became necessary to raise a stake and
get out. the boys worked olf the died: on
.Mr. Currier, whose wife Is a u u.'lu of
Day. Alter getting the hundred they
Jumped.
When Mr. Currier read an account of
the fraudulent transactions of the young
men in Tlie Times he proceeded to head
quarters, and after notifying the police of
his loss, got out a warrant for the arrest
of bulb. They had gotten out of the way
by that lime, however, but stopped a couple
of days In Rjltiniorc on their way to Chi
cago. There, by a mistake of Identity, the two
young men were arrested, and alter the
authorities had them, it was discovered
that Ihcy had been beating the hotels in
that city, which is a criminal offense.
COMMITTED TO JAII-.
They wereaccordln;ly givena preliminary
hearing on the charge and held to await the
action of tho grand Jury and committed to
Jail in default of bonds. The Indictment
brought against tucra by the grand Jury
yesterday finished the case there for the
present and they were brought here.
At tho Blxtb precinct station-house last
night they stated that their present trou
