Democratic CoiiKrcHHlonnl Convention
Nr.nitAiiKA CITV , Neb. , Sept. 27. [ Special
to THE Hi u ] J. Sterling Morton , of this
city , was nominated to day as candidate for
congress from the First congressional dis
trict on the democratic ticket.
The convention was called to order at I ) p.
in. In the opera house. In front of the pro
scenium arch stood two small American Hags
nnd n picture of thu democratic nominees for
president nnd vice president. There were
about fifty spot-tutors present and the par-
sotincl of the delegates contrasted sadly with
that of other conventions of the party re
cently held.
In the absence of A. E. Coggoshall , of
Omaha , chairman of the congressional cen
tral committee , J. T. Monarty , of Omaha ,
called the convention to order. On motion of
Euclid Martin , of Douglas , J. K. Burks , of
Gage , was elected temporary chairman.
Mr. Burks said ho considered it no small
honor to bo elected to preside over such a
delegate convention. They were thcro us
unterrllled democrats and as such
they meant to work Instead of
talk. While they hud n great de.il
to do , ho did not doubt but that they would
repeat the act they performed two years ago
In Falls City , which resulted in thu election
of a democrat to congress and rendering
democratic a strong 'sentiment from the
iiorthcrn to the southern limit of the First
district.
W. A. Gardner of Omaha , was elected sec
retary on motion of Mr. Marvin of G.me.
Secretary Whitmoro of Lancaster , read a
list of delegates , but mentioned only three
proxies when nearly fifty of the delegates
failed to put In an appearance. Pawnee
county was without representation and thoie
who had como from Nemaha were unpro
vided with cither list or credential. The list ,
however , was adopted.
C. J. Smythoot Douglas , moved that thu
temporary organization bo made permanent
nud the motion prevailed.
Julius Meyer of Douglas , moved that they
proceed to nominate a candidate for congress.
Carried.
On motion of Warner A. Hoot of Douglas ,
the counties were o.-dored called alphabet
ically for the nomination of favorite sons.
Slight confusion was aroused und the call
began. A red-bearded delegate from Cass
nominated Frank White.
Frank E. White Cass county has no can
didate. [ Tartly. |
Kcd-hcndcd Man I Insist.
The call of the other counties , Douglns ,
Gage , Johnson , Lancaster and Nemaha , fol
lowed , with quite an amount of suspense
when that of Douglas took place. Hut no
nomination was made. Otoo was called. It
wns thought that surely that county would
iiumo some one. But Dr. While rose and
said that Otoo had no candidate.
Pawnee , Hichardsoti , Sarpy and Sounders
wcro In turn named , but without mentioning
a candidate.
Major Paddock , of Douglas , then arose. It
was thought ho would nominate somebody
from his own county. But ho did not. Ho
said : "I move that this convention adjourn
slno die , referring back the nomination of a
candidate to the congressional committee of
the district. "
Cries of "No , no , " followed with consider
able excitement.
G. P. Marvin , of Gage The roll call was
made in a hasty manner. The fact that wo have
not seemed u candidate is because of that
ns also because no man has been authorized
to present a name to this convention. Wo do
not want to adjourn without making a nom
ination.
A delegate moved to adjourn to 7:30 : In the
evening.
Cries of "No , " "No. "
W. B. Bryan of Lincoln moved the appoint
ment of a committee on resolutions , one mem
ber from each county.
Mr. Shoemaker of Douglas offered as a
substitute that the convention adopt the
national and state platforms of the demo
cratic party. The substitute was adopted.
C. J. Smyth of Douglas raised a point of
order , which was not sustained.
Koot of Douglas moved for a second call of
the counties.
The red-bearded delegate from Cnsa ob-
looted. Ho wanted F. E. White.
George S. Upton of Cass nominated Brown
of Douglas. The motion was greeted with
loud cheers.
Charles Brown Wo have a delegation
down hero from Douglas , and it is under no
instructions from that county to present any
nauio to this convention. It is well known
that I am not a candidate , nnd my name must
not como before this convention. [ The rest
of Mr. Brown's remarks wore lost in con
fusion. ]
Again the call of counties proceeded until
Otoo was reached.
W. S. White , of Otoo Otoo county has no
candidate to present. [ Sensation in the
Douglas ranks. ] But I desire to put in nom
ination the natno of Hon. A. J. Sawyer , of
Lancaster.
A. J. Sawyer Thcro seems to bo n great
dearth of candidates , but I do bcllcvo wo
ought to bo able to present the name of some
poreon who can bo elected in the coming con
gressional campaign. I had hoped to hear
the name of a man from Otoo. [ Intciiso si
lence ] , Otoo Is modest. Our county , Lan
caster , took a vote to support any nominee
Douglas county might wish to name. AH the
counties have been called in turn , nud no
nomination has been made. I therefore take
the liberty of nominating J , Sterling Morton.
Cheers burst forth spontaneously. Hats
wcro flung In the air and the gathering
yelled Itself hoarse.
Major Paddock , of Douglas By the unani
mous wish of Douglas county It Is my pleasIng -
Ing duty and grateful pleasure to second the
nomination of J. Sterling Morton. I recog
nize In him. In a double souse , u broad-minded
man , an uncompromising democrat and an
Indomitable and fearless leader , and for
that reason alouo I am proud to bo the mouth
piece of Douglas county In this convention.
W. 8. White of Otoe If Mr. Morton is to
bo n candidate I hope ho will have an encour
aging voto. I don't want to see him slaugh
tered and misused by a certain cllquo in this
state.
Marvin , of Gage , spoke about the oflico
Booking tlio man and seconded Morton's
nomination.
Julius Meyer moved that the omlnation bo
made by acclamation.
H. M. Boydseir wanted n committee to
secure Morton's consent before nominating
him.
Captain Enyart , of Otoe , wanted to say
something , but was drowned with cries of '
"Question I Question I"
Dr. Brook , of Hieharason , wanted Morton
nominated unanimously.
It was done with cheers.
Sawyer , of Lancaster , moved the appoint
mcnt of n committee to notify Morton of his
nomination.
The committee appointed was A. J. Saw-
Sir , Lancaster ; Major Paddock , Douglas ;
r. Brook. HltShanUonjG. P. Marvin , Gage ;
C. W.Poolo. Johnson ; W. S. White , Otoo ;
A. W. Trumbull , Sarpy ; U. P. Upton , Cass :
William Bays , Saunders , and G. D. McCuno ,
of Ncmaha. The committee retired.
The following congressional central com-
ralttco was then appointed : Cass , W. B.
Shryock ; Douglas , W. H. Crar.v ; Gage , Dr.
G. U. Turner ; Johnson , W. S. Hnn ton ; Lan
caster , John H. Ames ; Ncmaha , J. M. Barn-
hart ; ulcuardBou , Thomas Brcunan ; Saun
ters , C. L. MlelenzSarpy ; , Snmuel Startler ;
Otoe , H. M. Boydscn.
Moton then made his appearance and was
warmly irreetcd. Ho said : "I can fully say
that this Is a very unexpected demand on me
nt this time and u very unexpected call to un
dertake to great a work. I had thought that
I never again would bo called on to accept n
nomination at the hands of the demo
crats of the state. It Is now thlrty-
three years since I first became con
nected with the organization of our party
In thu stnto of Nebraska and during these
thirtv-throo years , I can truthfully say that
1 have never personally sought my own , my
personal advantage In power or onicc. In tlio
past twenty years I have twlco been called
to lead the democratic party In a forlorn hope
In the ruco for the governorship of the state.
In each case I accepted , not because of thu
pleasure in or the benefits to bo derived from
olllcc , but merely bec.iuso of u belief In prin
ciples to which I was warmly devoted and
which I desired to SPO promulgated. Ofllco
is not n lucre Incident in tlio life of n man devoted -
voted to his country. It Jo'.ight to bo used
for the advancement of principles which are
for the benefit of the country. Adhering to
such principles , and nut desiring n scat in
congress for the sake of the honor attached
to the name , and desiring to subserve the
good of the country , I accept the nomination
[ Cheer. * ] . H makes no difference that there
Is 20,00(1 ( majority to overcome. No oflico has
love for me. 1 want to discuss the question
of tariff reduction and reform. The govern
ment is of all of us. The question Is , ID It right
to ttiko from all of us to correct : i few of us (
I shall enter the campaign and do the best I
can to disabuse many of the views held upon
this subject and so stir them up that the First
congressional district of this state will throb
with the tread of hosts marching to victory.
Having been drafted into the work , if yon
penult me to lay down the plan , although it
bo a challenge , I will challenge Mr. Council
to discuss with mo these principles of the
tariff which is now the question of the day.
After all these years , I can but thank you
sincerely from the very best part of my own
heart. "
Mr. Morton then entered upon a discussion
of the tariff alter which the convention ad
journed.
Til 10 UTAH COMMISSION.
The Minority Heport Filed With the
Sac-rotary of tlio Interior.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 27. Two of the five
members of the Utah commission , John Me-
demand and A. B. C.irllon , have filed with
the secretary of the Interior a minority re
port. They also submitted a minority report
last year. The report received to-day says :
Kcforin in Utah is nrogrossing favorably
far beyond our most sanguine expectations.
Utah is forging lo the front among the
1 Cocky mountain states and territories , and
may bo compared favorably with any of them
in the enterprise of her citizens , richness of
her mines and flourishing condition of her
cities nud towns. A great deal of capital is
beinir invested in Utah by non-Mormons
in city lotp , farming lands and mining
property. Such investments are as safe
thcro us in nny state or territory ; that is to
say , there is not the slightest danger of in
surrection , nor , in our opinion , is there any
danger of adverse legislation that will
jeopardize personal security or property
rights. Apart from sexual offenses , which are
dccidcdlv on the decrease , the Mormon people
plo of Utah will compare favorably with
other communities for peace , good order , so
briety , honesty and industry.
The commissioners say that in their opin
ion the great majority of the Mormon people
have wisely resolved that the practice of po
lygamy should bo abandoned. The commis
sioners arc adverse to any further restrictlvo
legislation by congress , believing that the
present laws are sufficiently stringent and
will accomplish all that can bo reasonably
required of legal coercion.

ITHACA , N. Y. , Sept. 27. [ Special Telegram
to THE BEE. ] Last evening the freshmen to
the number of10J marched through the city
giving their class yell , which the sophomores
quickly fol'owod , making the city ring with
their cry. After 110 preliminaries were ar
ranged the classes .not in fierce combat in
the city park. Four freshmen and an equal
number of sophomores grasped a hickory
stick nnd an upper lassuian gave thn signal
to begin. Then followed a wild struggle ,
lasting nearly two hours. The followers or
the respective classes closed in around the
cane dragging their opponents to the rear and
striving in every way to keep strong men
from the stick. The seniors cheered on the
sophomores , while the juniors protected their
especial charges , the freshmen. The dcnso
mass of 600 students swayed to and fro , and
the air was filled with crier of "On , fresh
men , " "Go in there , ' 01. " Clothes were torn ,
hats stamped under foot nnd heads jammed
together in n general mass. The cano was
finally won by the freshmen , who Immedi
ately formed in line nnd marched through
the city In triumph. There was no interfer
ence by the faculty or city police.

NEW Youic , Sept. 27. [ Special Telegram
to THE BEE. ] Under the scriptural ex
tract , "Look therefore carefully how ye
walk , not as the unwise , but as the wise ; re
deeming the time because the days are evil , "
thu Mall and Express last evening had the
following extraordinary editorial paragraph ;
"Should the report from London prove
true that Sir Lionel Sackvlllo West is to bo
transferred to St. Petersburg from Washing
ton there would bo a great many dry eyes in
this country ut parting. It is to bo hoped
her Britannlo majesty , who Is justly so care
ful not to recelvo at her court anyone who
openly defies the dlvino Institution of nwr-
rlagu and the family , will take occasion In ap
pointing his successor at our republican
court , to send seine ono whom and whoso
progeny she would bo willing to receive at
homo. "
This 1ms created a great deal of gossip , but
no explanation Is offered yet.

Another Exchtingo of Personalities
by Members of the Senate.
THE SOUTHERN ELECTION RIOTS.
Mr. Coke , of Teian , IJOSLM His Temper
nnd Is Called to Order by
the Chair The
HottHC.
Senate.
WASIIINOTON , Sept. 27. The house amend
ment to the scnato bill appropriating $100,000
In old of the yellow fever suffcrjrs was laid
before the senate to-day. Mr. Edmunds said
that ho hud examined it , nnd was very much
afraid that It missed the point alined at that
was the capacity to use any of the money In
aid of these who wcro sick and In distress
nnd in danger of starvation. In the hope ,
therefore , that something better could bo
done ho moved that the scnato non-conciir In
the house amendment nnd asked fora confer
ence. So ordered.
Mr. Call afforded a resolution Instructing
the committco on epidemic diseases to con
sider and report before the adjournment of
this session of congress such additional legis
lation as might bo necessary and useful to
prevent the importation of rontagious dis
eases from foreign countries on the coast or
boundaries of the United States , and prevent
and suppress it in iutcr-stuto commerce , and
for the subsistence of such persons as may
bo detained by public authorities.
The matter went over till Monday.
It was ordered that when the senate ad
journed to-day it will bo until Monday.
Mr. Sherman , from the committee on for
eign relations , reported back , without any
recommendation , the resolution offered by
him for nn inquiry ns to the state of relations
between tlio United States and Great Britain
and the Dominion of Canada , and It was
Dlaecd on the calendar.
The conference report on the sundry civil
appropriation bill was presented and agreed
to.
to.Tho
The resolution offered by Mr. Chandler for
an Inquiry into the lost Louisiana election
( involving the choice of a United States sen
ator ) was taken up.
Mr. Gibson opened the debate. Ho made
the point that thu senate had no jurisdiction
in investigutiiip state elections except
when petitioned to do so by the citizens of
the state whoso election is questioned.
Mr. Chandler , in his reply , charged Mr.
Gibson with dealing entirely In general
Hies , nud accused him of a failure
to face specific facts. Mr. Chandler
wont on to say that if ho understood the tem
per of the American people they were weary
of frauds , false countings , and murders of
legal voters in the south , which state of af
fairs existed to make that section solid and
enable it to govern the north and the country.
He quoted from private letters and from
newspaper publications in proof of frequent
occurrences of outrages in Louisiana.
In the course of the discussion which en
sued Mr. Butler asked Mr. Edmunds if ho
would hold that cither house of congress
had the right to make an investigation of its
own motion in the absence of sonio protest or
meaorlal or complaint irom somebody in the
state.
Mr. Edmunds I most decidedly do. It is
the business of congress to interfere whether
silence or protest como from the state
affected , because it Is not only the welfare of
the people of that state , but it is the welfare
of the people of every part of the nation that
is involved.
The discussion drifted from outrages in
Louisiana to outrages in the state of Texas ,
und in this discussion prominent parts were
taken by Messrs. Chandler , Blair , Spooner ,
Kcngan nnd Coke. The most notable Incident
in It was the fact of the latter being called to
order for unparliamentary language directed
against Mr. Chandler , Mr. Mandcrson being
in the chair.
Mr. Coke denied In tote the charges made
by Mr. Chandler of outrages in Texas , char
acterizing them as Infamous slanders and
falsehoods.
Mr. Spooner in reply said that Mr. Coke
had told him that suppression was as bad as
falsehood. The day when "tho manner of
the nigger driver" frightened men in the
United States senate had gene by , nnd gone
by forever. [ This sally evoked applause In
the gallery , which was Instantly rebuked by
the choir.J The senator from Texas had
recently said : 'Let us alone. All that wo
want is to bo let alone. ' All that wo want , "
said Mr. Spooner , with much vehemence of
manner , "is that which wo are entitled
to have , and that is that every
man in the United States who
Is entitled under the constitution of the
United States to exercise the right of Amer
ican citl/onshlp whether ho lives in Texas ,
in Louisiana , or in Wisconsin shall do so
undisturbed and undismayed. Bloody shirt !
Wo are not talking about war. This Is a
current matter. This Is something which is
happening now. You ( referring to the
southern senators ) filled the land with
graves. That is all forgiven. The country
is represented in almost every public oflico
abroad by men who served against our flag
during the war. Wo make no complaint of
it ; wo do not like it , and wo will try to
prevent a recurrence of it. The only men
I Know of who have not accepted
the results of the war are our friends of the
south. It Is not the people of the north. Ono
of the results of the war was that the negro
of proper ago should have a right to vote.
The south has deprived him of that right. "
The discussion took another turn toward
personalities , when Mr. Coke intimated that
ho had letters in his possession , which ho
would not use , connecting the senator from
Wisconsin with evictions in the state of Iowa
that would parallel in atrocity the worst
ejectments that had ever had over taken
place in Ireland.
The explanation of the matter given by Mr.
Spooner was that ho had nrgued in the supreme
premo court of the United States
a case of overlapping lands between
two railroad companies nnd had never
had anything to do with the matter after
wards. Ho know nothing of the evictions
alluded to , but ho would say , and would en
deavor to keep within parliamentary bounds
in saying it , that "tho man , outside of this
chamber who states that I. as counsel or
owner , directly or indirectly , in any way
whatever , was ever Instrumental In turning
any man , woman or child , from his land nr
from his cabin , whether quarter section or
quarter acre , is n liar , I s.iy that of any man
who makes that charge outside of this scnato
chamber. "
Coming back to the same question , Mr.
Spooner said : "Whilo I regard the sena
tor's ( Mr. Coke's ) attempt to bring
mo personally into disrepute as
of a character winch , outside of the senate , I
would denominate differently from what I do
hero , 1 want to say to him that ho Is part , as
I have been informed [ after a iiuusol I
will not say it. "
Mr. Coke ( defiantly ) Say it.
Mr. Spooner I have discussed this case on
its merits. I will not go into personalities In
this senate chamber.
At this point Mr. Butler Interposed with a
motion to adjourn , which was carried.

ment over the signature of Alexander E ,

o'clock this afternoon :
To the Members of the Gratuity Fund
Gentlemen : Yesterday afternoon it came to
the knowledge of the trustees of the gratu .
ity fund that Counsel William K. Foster , Jr. ,
wns suspected of having couitnmlttcd similar
frauds to those practiced by Bedell In the
office of Shlpmun. Barlow , Larocquo ft
Choate. An investigation proved this to bo
the case. The register of New York has
pronounced thirteen mortgages , aggregating
f KVVXH ) , as having fraudulent certificates of
registration ! The Investigation is still going
on nnd the members of the exchange will bo
advised of further developments. Last
evening the Pinkerton detective agency was
employed | to arrest William H. Foster , Jl. ,
ut as yet no report has been received from
'lem.
This statement was not n complete sur-
rlso to the members of the exchange. Fos-
er , who bud long been legal counsel for the
ic exchange , had not been seen about thcro
Inco last Tuesday evening. Ho went away
lien , saying that ho would bo back next
lornlng. Ho enjoyed the implicit < o ilidcnco
f his associates.
Foster Is a brother of James P. Foster ,
resident of tlio national league of rcpubll-
an clubs , and the latter was formerly the
unlor partner of the firm. The system
, 'hIcli has been employed to perpetrate the
raud Is understood to have been similar to
ml even more Intricate than the scheme ) of
: io swindler Bedell. The notary whose slg-
aturo purports to bo attached to the fraudu-
cut mortgages Is nn attache of Foster &
Ventworth's office , nnd ho denies having
vritton it. A similarity has bean discovered
etween the writing of roster and the cleric ,
" "osier is a man of about forty years of ago
ml Is unmarried. Ho lived expensively , but
ot beyond the Income which ho received.
Us father is wealthy and lives on Stntcn
sland.
Mr. Wcntworth , Foster's partner , said
liat the latter was the last man ho would
ave suspected of doing such a deed. Ho
vas temperate , and was never known to
peculate.

Sept' 27. General Harri
son's visitors to-day came , from Ohio. Delega
tions came from Hnncpck und Allen counties
und numbered several hundred. They brought
six bands with them. Fifty Tlppecanoo vet-
Tans accompanied the delegations , also 100
uniformed members of the Harrison and

Among General Harrison's callers this nf-
.crnoon were a number of prominent citizens
of Bloomlngton , III. , who brought an invita
tion urging the general to attend their big
rally to bo held October 20. It. is improbable ,
iiowovor , in view of his other declinations ,
that General Harrison will leave the state

Pennsylvania gas men , who nro In the city
on business , accompanied by a delegation of
local gas men and plumbers , called on Gen

to Tun BEE. ] A locomotive ran Into the
rear car of n tram on ttio elevated road at
Ninth avenue and Sixty-fifth street last
night , knocking the truck from under the

The accident was duo to the delay of an
empty train in getting on a switch out of the
way of a crowded passenger train bound up
town , whose locomotive ran into the rear
empty car. Both trucks , weighing over a
ton each , were wrenched off and thrown into
the street. An iron girder prevented the
empty car from falling to the street. It lay
on its side. The llrst car of the passenger
train was also thrown from the track , but
the Iron railing of the passenger walk and
the strong coupling kept it and its load of
passengers from fulling to the street. The
passengers were thrown together wh'lo the
car stood on the edge , but none of them wcro
found to bo seriously hurt. Severn ! of them
wcro slightly bruised. The fireman of the

A Point for CongrcHS to Settle.
BOSTON , Sept. 27. The department of
state of Massachusetts has written to Sena
tor Hoar calling attention to the following
discrepancy in the electoral college laws.
The United States statutes provide thn
messengers from the electoral colleges In the
various states shall deliver their copies of
the votes of their colleges lo the president of
the senate before the first Wednesday in Jan
uary. The colleges havomet [ heretofore on
the first Monday in December , but the law
passed by congress in 1887 changed the time
of meeting to the second Monday in January ,

munity like Illinois ; but I was mistaken.
What sort of u case there was against mo

ney , under" whoso Instructions wo put an
armed force on our land , and another one of
our men , both of whom wore tried after the
passage of the now law , were acquitted on
precisely the same evidence as that on which
my foreman and I were sent to the penltcn

contested ground herself tilono ngalnst all
these men from Monday , when 1 was ar
rested , till Friday. She was right thcro
when the light took place , but they would
not let her testify , although she saw it all.

An Important Question Bottled.
WASHINGTON , Sept. ST. First Comptroller
Dunham has decided an Important point aris
ing out of the act making appropriations for
improvement of riven * and harbors. It is la
substance that the appropriations made in that
act are specific in their character , mid can bq
drawn upon from time to tlmo until exhausted
or the object for wljich they were made shall
hava been accomplished. The decision la
based upon questions raised by the acting
secretary of war as to whether the unex
pended balance of appropriations for the
operation of snag boats , removal of snags ,
gauging of waters and surveys in the Mississippi - '
sippi river would lapse into the treasury
after the expiration ol the present llscal year.
The comptroller holds that the river ana har
bor appropriations are not annual appropria
tions , and that their expenditure is not re
stricted to any particular time.
