Sept. iii—Seldom before in the history of a state convention have there been so much excitement and activity shown two days prior to its holding as is shown hcro now. Tho day was largely given up to conferences and to attempts on the part of party managers to appease various elements. The situation today is that the canon tion promises to be one of the most inter- esting hold in years. Tho attoudanm is large. and the various supporters of can- didates do not seem disposed in the ,ma- jority of instances to make any compro- mise with what is generally supposed to be the majority element. Ncithcr is there any indication that the much talked of fusion of minority candi- dates will take place as against Mr. Platt, for none of them seem willing to be relo- gntcd to the shade. During the «lay the candidate‘s dwindled a little. In the field for governor there are two prominent candidates—Levi P. Morton and J. Slant Fassottmand for lieutenant govcrnor thc canvass has come down to James W. Wadsworth, Goorgo W. Ald- ridge and Charles ’1'. Saxton. Arthur C. Wade of Chautauqua and Major Brun- dngo of Chcmung consider themselves also in the race. The Morton managers, at the head of whom stands Mr. l’latt himself, claim that there is now no doubt that their can- didate will be nominated on the first bal- lot. From these same headquarters came the story that Mr. Platt has not stopped at personally selecting the nominee for gov- ornor, but has tcndcrcd tho nomination for lieutenant governor on the strength of tho Morton ballot to James W. Wads- worth. Thls Mr. I’latt absolutelydoniod. As to the truth of this statement Mr. Plait declines to speak. except to say that ho is not lutcrcstinghimsolf in the can- vass for second place on the ticket. if he has givon such assurance to Mr. Wads’ worth, he has not as yet instructed the delegates controlled by him to cast their votes in that direction, for many of them are talking in favor of George W. Aid- ridgo of Rochestcr, and the Monroe dolo- gation, which mot and declared them- selves unaltcrably for Mr. ‘Aldridgc. are positlvc that their oundidatc will make a much licttcr showing in tho convention then will Wadsworth. The “colonial Governor-ship. The canvass of these twa candidates by no means eclipses that of Mr. Saxton, and the situation oppcars to indicate that each «mo of the three is cqually as sure as an- uthcr of securing the nomination. if the nomination for licutviiant gov- ernor should take precedence over that for govcrnor, Mr. Morton's chances Wuulil not bc any more favorablc than those of anybmly also. but as it now stands cnch not of dolegutos have a choice for llcutcn- unt governor and will vote for Mr. Morton on this first ballot in tho hopo of obtain- ing some of tho Morton strength for their candidate. it Is said on LZUlliI nuthurlty that whilo Mr. Wadsworth announced his candi- dacy, he will not be a cundiduto before the convcntion nulnss Erie county plcdgcs him its unitcd rota. As yet ho has ob- tained no guarantor» that this will ho done. But eight of the Eric delegation are here. and although tin-y mot twice and Messrs. Schatchrrd, l'rhnn. fircoii and l'crsons arc here they urrivcd at no decision, but will wait till latcr, \vhcn tho matter will be presumed to tho lull delegation. It is argued that tho Eric delegation will ugroc to vote for \i‘adswurth as Mr. l‘latt's candiduto, provided that gunilo- mun agrees to throw Morton's strength to Judge Albcrt liaight as candidate for judge of the court of appeals. With all those points in vicw it seems unitc prob- ablo that the ticket will be as follows: For governor, Levi I'. Morton; llcutcir ant. govornor, James W. Wadsworth; judgo of the court of uppculs, Albert Hnlght. Late last night Mr. iv‘aesottscnt for Loti- lio W. Russell. General liutterflcld and Stuart Woodford of Brooklyn, and a hur- ricd consultation was hold at tho Grand l'nion hotel. A table of counties was made up, and after tho conference was ovcr John W. Dwight said to your mirro- spondcnt: “Mr. Fautclt, Mr. liusscll. Mr. Woodford and iioucral liuttcrllold will all be candidates bolero the convention for the nomination of governor. Under no circuimitunccs will any of thorn withdraw. Wo havc carefully compiled a list of dclo~ gates and find that Mr. Morton has all votes, tho antIuMorton faction can votes, and thcrc arc liiru doubtful. The chances are therefore just as good for any other candldatc as for Mr. Morton. " What the lie-den flay. Tho views of four of tho loaders, three of them cumlldaios, am of intcrost hot-c: Mr. l’latt--Mr. Morton’s nomination is assured upon the first ballot. I have not intorcstcd mysclf in the nomination for lieutenant governor and (in not intend to. ill r.

Mr. Aldridge-My name will be pro- acntcd to tho convention asacnndldatc for lieutenant govcraor, and l bcliorol have as much chance of winning as any other candidate before the body. Mr. Wadsworth—At tho earnest solici- tation of friends i hit“ decided to allow my namc to bc prcscutod to the canyon- tlon, but only In thc event of Eric county giving me her undivillcd votc. Both the P’assctt and Huston people are working hard to scours the Vote of Eric county-the former for governor and the latter forlicutsasnt governor. There is serious doubt that either will succeed.

His head rested on tho pillow, which had become covercd with blood, from a bullet wound behind the right ear. Beside tho body lay the wcapon'with which he had killed himsclf. There was nothing to tell why the man put an and to his life, but this telegram was found on the table in the room: “George C. Bell, 518 Euclid Avenue. Cleveland: "I am dead. What shall they do with my carcass? M. A. BELL." This was also found written on a tole- graph blank: ' "Don‘t even black your shoes for me. as I am not worthy or responsible for it. Bell's luggage consisted of a handbag, but on his person were found a gold watch and chain. a pocketbook containing $175.70, two revolvers, two psnknives, three unsct diamonds of large size and great brilliancy valued at not less than $400 each, a diamond shirt stud and dia- mond ring worth collectively $800, an emerald ring, two plain gold rings and a gold mick chain.

Ho went to Now York last Monday, and nothing had been heard from him until tho news of his death was rcceivcd by his relatives. Mr. Bell‘s brother. who Is a dcntist here, said that ho could think of flu reason why his hrothcr should desire to kill him- self, and the only theory ho advances is that the man was toiiipomrily insane. Dr. Boll says that his brother had been subject to torriblc nervous headaches, and he thinks it possible that ho klllcd him- sclf whilo suffering from one of his pori- odic attacks of headache.
