nounced that the convention would pro
ceed to vole for U. 8. Senator in place
of Roscoo Conkling, resigned. Speaker
Sharpe detailed the failure to secure a
caucus, and referred to the one called
by . a majority of representatives. He
acknowledged its authority, as it eman
ated from a majority. He had delayed
action in accordance with the result of
that caucus, because he saw in the elec
tion of the candidates nominated a
great danger. He soon warned the
convention of that danger, saying that
the Democrats of the U. S. Senate
would do what they could to make the
election futile. He concluded by sayr
ing that when his name was called he
would vote for Eld ridge G. Lapham in

and Jesse Myers, last, of the gang of
desperadoes who long terrorized New

communion and complacently expressed
i the belief that they would go direct

rope, eight feet long, touched the
ground, but the guard rushed in, drew
up the rope a few inches, fastened it,
and death soon ensued. An immense
crowd assembled, and the men asked
the Sheriff to hang them early in the
flay, being incensed at the idea that
lemonade vendors should make protit
out of their misfortune.

liCSSIA'S RUEFUL CONDITION.
New York, July 10. The AVorld's
London cablegram: Well informed
correspondents at . St. Petersburg report
that Eussia is fast drifting into anarchy.
The Czar still keeps himself a close
prisoner at Peterhof. Occasionally,
when business of state requires his pres
ence at the capital, ho leaves his fort
ress, enters St. Petersburg almost by
stealth and returns as quietly. The
new ministry under Ignaticif has aban
doned the 'promised reforms and is
crushing out by the most autocratic and
high handed measures the efforts of the
people for a representative government
and the reconstruction of the municipal
system upon a broader and freer basis.
The peasants,, although the crops
promise fairly well, tire in a terrible
plight, officials from the highest to the
lowest are sunk in corruption, priests of
the orthodox church are not much bet
ter and nihilism has reached to a pitch
of arrogance and absoluteness unknown
in the worst days of the Romanoff
regime. The Nihilists did not exagger
ate whsn they told the Czar the other
day that there was no longer occasion
for the use of dynamite, as the whole
fabric of the empire was about to ex
plode. Revelations of Pavel Biswams
ki, the imperial state's attorney, who
was appointed to examine into tho
workings of the police system in the Or
enburg "department, and who was
stripped of his office because he ex
posed frightful abuses too faithfully,
nave been 'printed and are being scat
tered far and wide throughout the coun
try. Some of the state convicts of Si
beria, too, have found an underground
way of sending their diaries to the rev
olutionary press and these have a vast
circulation. The Czar is either kept in
ignorance of the' critical condition of
affairs or is afraid to take action and
a revolution such as the world has nev
er witnessed is not far oil".
President ;m Hold.
Washington, July 10. Doctor, when
are you going to announce officially
that, tho President is out of danger?
was asked of Dr. Bliss.
"There are some unforeseen accidents
which may occur, and there is no rea
son for deceiving the public; that is
why we will not say that, he is out of
danger entirely. , He is booming right
along, but that is no reason why we
should proclaim that he is totally re
covered from danger, but he is a pretty
safe man.-'
Said Dr. Bann s to a similar ques
tion: "The public should be given only the
facts. There is no reason, except the
possibility of accidents, why it should
not be said that the President is out of
danger."
COULDN'T !1E MORE FAVORABLE.
Dr. Reyburn says he could hardly
imagine ' a more favorable progress
than the patient had made to-day. His
fever up to 5 p. m. had been barely per
ceptible, even at that hour, the time of
its greatest intensity. It was much
lower than ever before. Process of
suppuration is going on in a perfectly
natural and normal way, and the drain
age tube was introduced into the wound
this afternoon to a depth of 3 or iU
inches. The discharge is now subjected
every day to microscopic examination,
wilh'a view of ascertaining from frag
ments of tissue which it may contain,
whether it comes from the depths of the
wound or not, and if it does, what indi
cations it furnishes with regard to the
parts of the body Ihrough which the
ball passed.

Drunken Itow at a Hull.
Pittston, Penn., July 10. At one
o'clock this morning, at a rattle and ball
at a prominent local politician's house,
a drunken row occurred. Part of the
guests being ejected, stormed the honse
and a party of circus men on their
way to the depot took a hand in the af
fray, being set upon by the Mollies. A
circus man fired at and killed John Ma
gan. The fight waxed fiercer, the
crowd increased, and a perfect bedlam
of shouts and shots rent the air. The
departure of the circus took tho heart
out of the fight, which soon after ceased.
Several persons were wounded. Offi
cers have gone to Mauch ('hunk to ar
rest the man who tired the shot.
Train Robbery.
Kansas City, July 16. It is reported
that the Rock Island, due in this city
last nighty was side tracked at Winslow
Station, near Cameron Junction, about
7 o'clock and boarded by a band of des
peradoes, who killed the conductor and
robbed all the passengers and mail and
express cars.
FURTHER PARTICULARS.
A train robberv occurred to-nitrht on
the Rock Island Road at Winslow Sta
tion, near Cameron Junction, when the
train which left this city to-night in
charge of Conductor Westfall reached
that point at 9:30 a gang of desperadoes
appeared and side-tracked the train.
Every car was boarded, the conductor
was killed and the passengers robbed.
It was impossible to secure any particu
lars up to a late hour. Winslow is in
an open prairie country, and " would
seem to De the last place
on the line robbers would select
for such an operation, but the vicinity
has a very hard population and it is
not improbable that the outlaws would
offer assistance to any one in their ef
forts to escape pursuit. The first re
port ot the robbery received in
this city started a hundred rumors
about the notorious James brothers,
but all speculation is idle at present.
Timothy O. Howe Monetary Matters.
New York, July 16. A Tribune re
porter boarded the steamer Celtic at
quarentine yesterday afternoon and on
the way up the harbor had a talk with
Timothy (). Howe, emissary to the mon
etary conference at Paris. In speak
ing of the conference he said: "This
has been not quite so successful as the
government of the United States had
hoped. When I left Paris my col
leagues thought I could do so without
neglecting the interests of my govern
ment, in fact it was expected that con
ference would adjourn before I reached
New York, were it not more successful.
Ido not think the result of the confer
ence will effectually compromise the
future gootl results! The only obsta
cles to a universal standard were pre
sented by Great Britain. She was not pre
pared to accept bimetalism for herself
and still less prepared to see the rest of
the world reject it. Her government is
now engaged with other cases. Her
commercial and financial classes are
very much interested in this great ques
tion and the success of it has ultimately
very much quickened as the result of
the conference. I have many reasons
to believe that as soon as the govern
ment of Great Britain has time to take
up the question it will receive a careful
and favorable consideration."
Howe, after enquiring particularly
after the condition of the President, said
there was intense idirnation expressed
in Paris at the attempt upon his life and
universal .sympathy expressed for him
and his family.
Mnci'arlane'H Míhníoii.
San Francisco, July 16. Among the
passengers from Honolulu by the last
steamer was Major G. W. Macfarlane,
aid ile camp and bearer of dispatches
to King Kalakaua. His mission has ex
cited some enquiry from a number of
prominent planters and merchants from
the island. It is learned that the King
was at one time induced by the notori
ous Caharcelso Morfi to enter into an
arrangement by which the Chinese
merchants' line of steamers were to
land a million Chinamen on the island
on which a capitation tax of $7 each
was to be levied. They were then to be
made citizens and the kingdom turned
over to the Chinese Empire for this con
sideration. The scheme baulked by the
action of foreign residents and the offi
cials chagrined at the issue, and his re
sulting impopularity, the King went oil"
on a tour of the world. It has been
supposed that the arrival of Macfarlane
had some connection for or against
tkee schemes, but Clans Speckles, a
leading planter of the islands and mer
chant of this city, says his mission is to
officially announce the death of Chief
Justice Harris and other news of im
portance. The Accommodating' Jay tJouId.
New York, July 16. The following
was sent to the newspapers hero to
night: In view of serious inconvenience
to many people from the malicious and
vexatious suits against the Western
Union Telegraph company I have ar
ranged with the Mercantile Trust Com
pany to advance to all stockholders
of the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany the amount of their dividends
payable this day upon assignment to
me at the office of said Trust Company
of their right to receive the same.

New York, July 15.
Amalgamated Trades and Labor
Union.
New York, July 16. The Amalga
mated Trades and Labor Union to-night
reorganized for the purpose of starting
similar unions throughout the country,
so that if there be a strike in one State
associations in other States would assist
them. A communication was favora
bly received from unions of Toronto.
Canada, asking that both associations
act together.
Railrord War.
New York, July 16. The railroad
passenger rates war continues. At
tempts looking toward a conference of
the presidents of companies have been
made and it is believed no consultation
between the heads of competing lines
will be had until, as one railroad man
expressed it, "passenger rates reach
bed rock. .

mostly reductions.
Antronomieal.
Rochester, N. Y., July 10. Dr. Lewis
Swift, director of Warner's Observato
ry, yesterday received a letter from J.
M. Schalberre, of Ann Arbor, Mich.,
announcing that he had discovered the
nebulous matter in R. A. 5h. 48m., dec
lination n. 38 degrees 45m; but daylight
obscured its identity. Dr. Switt this
morning reported that he discovered
the matter in constellation Auriga, and
it is quite bright, being larger and ntorc
luminous than the one discovered May
1st by Dr. Swift. Its centre is strongly
condensed, and from the motion it is
apparently very slow. It can't be as
certained whether it is going directly
toward of from the earth. The comet
is telescopic. This is the fourth comet
discovered since May 1st. Dr. Swift
thinks, from the present position of the
comet, that it is expected it is the
comet of 1882. It is moving very slowly
towards the northwest.

Brilliant Birthday Party.
A birthday party in honor of Miss
Mamie Otero was given at the residence
of Don Miguel A. Otero last evening.
It was a grand affair, the gayest social
event that has occurred in Las Vegas
in a long time. The hospitality of the
Otero household is proverbial and nev
was it more lavishly dispensed than on
last evening. It was the intention of Don
Miguel Otero and his wife to make this
a gathering of young people, and the
attendance was large and included our
best society young people. Another
party will be given ere long for married
people on the occasion of the birthday
anniversary of M. A. Otero, Jr.
Last evening the lawn was brilliantly
lighted by Chinese lanterns. Dancing
was kept up in a pavilbon on the lawn
till an early hour. The attendance was
large and the enjoyment of all great.
