ST. LOUiS GETS IT.
The Republican National Convention Will Be
Held There on June 16—Four Ballots
Decided It.
Washington, Dec. 10.—The republican
national convention will be held at St.
Louis, Mo., on the 16th day of next June.
These were the two material results of
today's quadrennial meeting of the re
publican national committee. Thus ends
a contest that has been spiritedly con
ducted by the four cities of San Fran
cisco, Chicago, Pittsburg and St. Louts.
New York was a nominal candidate for
the convention honors, but her re^-e
sentatives did not reach the city until
last night, too late to begin an active
propaganda for the metropolis of the
east. St. Louis' victory was due to a
variety of causes, the principal of which
was the untiring efforts put forth by her
representatives, who arrived on Sunday
last, supplemented by sound Judgment,
good political finesse, and by the further
fact that astounding gains made by the
republicans of Missouri a year ago ap
pealed strongly to the sympathy of the
national committee, with whom the se
lection lay. St. Louis had been regarded
as a strong competitor from the start,
but experienced observers of political af
fairs felt that her present rival would
be Chicago, which, curiously enough,
was never seriously in the fight.
The California delegation made a game
up-hill fight. That they succeeded in
polling so large a vote at the start, and
holding it practically intact until the
final ballot, furnished the strongest proof
of the good work done by her committee
in the face of obstacles with which none
of I he other cities had to contend. The
distance was against them; the time con
sumed in making the trip was against
them; the expenses of the trip was
a factor which militated against them,
and yet for three ballots they led all
of their competitors;. Pittsburg, like
Chicago, was never a formidable con
testant, and after two ballots the brave
showing she had made at the beginning
gradually disappeared.
The first ballot was taken at 4 o'clock.
It was informal, and designed to test
the sense of the committee. It resulted
as follows:
San Francisco, 20; Chicago, 8; Filts
burg, 9; St. Louis, 13; New York, 1; total,
51.
On motion of Mr. Hobart or New Jersey
the city polling the smallest vote on this
ballot was dropped. This eliminated
New York and reduced the contest to the
four cities named. On this ballot the
member from the District of Columbia
voted for San Francisco. On the first
regular ballot both he and the member
from New York transferred their votes
to St. Louis, with the result that San
Francisco dropped to 19, Chicago and
Pittsburg remaining stationary, with 8
and 9 votes respectively, while St. Louis
went up to 15. During the intermission
between the first and second ballots Mr.
Kerreens, the Missouri member of the
committee, and some of the staunch ad
herents of the Mound City did some ef
fective missionary work, which was
shown when the second ballot was taken.
On this ballot San Francisco retained her
19 voles; Chicago gained one from Pitts
burg; Pittsburg lost four, three of the
number going to St. Louis, increasing
her strength to 18. On the third ballot
Pittsburg’s forces disintegrated, so that
tile member from that state was the only
person voting for the Smoky City. The
four votes lost by Pittsburg on this oc
casion went to St. Louis, thus putting her
in the- lead with 22 votes, San Francisco
and Chicago remaining stationary, with
19 and 9 votes each to thetr credit. It
was now apparent that St. Louis was
forging steadily to the front. Pittsburg
dropped out of the race. On the last
ballot San Francisco received 15 cotes,
Chicago 7 and St. Louis 29, thrpe more
than a majority.

A 7 RAIN LOAD OF CHINESE
P?$s Through the City En Route to Hongkong
From Atlanta,
Two car loads of Chinese passed
through the city yesterday afternoon en
route to their native land.
They have been connected with the
Chinese village at the Atlanta exposition
and started on their return trip home
yesterday, leaving Atlanta about noon
and arriving here at 5 p. m.
The party consists of seventy-five peo
ple, of whom five were women, and ttiey
came on a special train of two coaches
and one baggage car, with Conductor
Walton in charge.
The Alabam Great Southern train
due to leave here at 3:30 was held until
their arrival and to it the special cars
were attached and sent on to New Or
leans. From New Orleans the Chinese
will go over the Southern Pacific to San
Francisco and thence to Hongkong by’
steamer.
The two cars in which the Chines'?
came over were kept locked all the way
from Atlanta and nobody allowed to
either enter or leave one of them. The
occupants seemed very well pleased
when they arrived here, most of them at
that tim? being engaged with a lurelv
consisting of boiled bam and baker's
bread. While here they ordered and re^ :
ceived fifty loaves of bread and ordered
five hams to bo delivered to them at Me
ridian.

that suggested itself and a few minutes
later forgot It. He was caught In his own
trap. En route to Birmingham he con
fessed, it Is said, and will be sent back to
Coalburg today.
FOREIGN AFFAIRS.
Italy Is Preparing to Prosecute a Vigorous
, War Against Abyssinia—A Russian
Commanded the Enemy.
Rome, Dec. 10.—The government Is In
receipt of further advices from General
Baratieri, commanding the Italian forces
in Abyssinia, giving additional details
of the surrounding of Major Toselli and
his command by a large body of Abys
sinians, resulting in the loss of about
700 of Toselii's men. The Abyssinians,
who w'ere directed in part by Chief Ras
Mangasia Mikael and Ras Makunnen,
fought with great vigor and skill for six
hours. It is reported that the entire
forces of the enemy were commanded
by a Russian major. The hemmed-in
Italians fought with extreme despera
tion. Fortunately, before the fight was
over General Arimonde arrived upon the
field frith his command and drove the
Abyssinians back, enabling the 300 be
leaguered Italians who remained alive
to make their escape. Three Abyssinian
chiefs and 3000 of their followers were
killed or wounded.
General Baratieri has arrived at Adl
grat and assumed command of the Ital
ian forces. He reports that the reverses
•sustained by the Italians through the
disaster to Major Toselii’s command has
not produced any evil effects upon the
soldiers in the Italian army or the na
tives previously favorable to Italian col
onial authority. Up to Sunday, the ad
vices say, the enemy had not advanced.
The government will ask in the cham
ber of deputies today for a vote of credit
. of 5,000,000 lire for the purpose of carry
ing on the war in Abyssinia. A draft
of 1000 troops will embark for Abyssinia
today, and 10,000 more will be dispatched
within a few days.
Russia’s Request.
Constantinople. Dec. 10.—M. KTelldoff,
Russian ambassador to Turkey, has sent
a communication to the sultan inform
ing his majesty that his diplomatic col
leagues had resolved to insist upon the
admission of additional guardships
through the Dardanelles. He also ap
pealed to the sultan In the name of the
czar to take the matter into the most
serious consideration. He Relieved, he
said, that should the sultan refuse to
grant the necessary permits, additional
ships would be ordered to enter the
Heilesport without them, the warships
of foreign squadrons probably support
ing them.

quently he has ordered the Italian force

patch the government ordered that the
