Secretary Humphrey Says That It Will Be the Most Momentous Gathering in the History of the Organiza- tion—Its Work Outlined. CINCINNATI, April 21.——Dclegates to the Republican National league convention, which assembles here Tuesday, com— menced to come in Sunday in large num- bers, and the balance will all undoubtedly be here by Tuesday morning. Most of the hotels have all their quarters engaged, and those whose complement is not filled as yet will be taxed to accommodate the crowd which is coming. Several of the hostelries have engaged flats in buildings near by, and will run them as annexes to their regular structures. The general committee of arragements, composed of members from tw enty—five of the Republican ' clubs of Cincin- nati, Covington and N e W p o r t , have done their work well and everything is in readiness for the monster gather- ing. The Lincoln; and Blaine club; headquarters are' dressed in array} most gorgeous to-‘r ored guests. The x ' ' . ill - 5:5 League headquar— 'flt/"Q Ami" \5‘3" ters and the press PRESIDENT THURSTON. headquarters, which are on the first floor of the Grand hotel, are beautifully draped with American flags, while the lobby of the hotel is decorated in a like manner. Hon. John M. Thurston, president of the league, arrived Monday morning from New York, and General John S. Clarkson, ex—assistant postmaster general, came in the evening. Secretary Humphrey has received infor- mation that delegations are en route from every state in the Union, except a few southern states and territories. What Secretary Humphrey Says. Secretary Humphrey has been here since last Friday night. He is greatly encour- aged by the letters that he has received from the various local and state organiza- tions, and predicts that the convention will be by far the greatest and most important in the history of the League. Cincinnati is so easy of access, so central in its posi- tion and so thoroughly supplied with rail- way facilities and hotel accommodations that no one can stay away on the ground of inconvenience. In an interview, Secretary Humphrey said that it is not the function of the league to make Republican platforms or to formulate new declarations of Repub- lican principles. It is an auxiliary organ- ization altogether, designed to promote the interests of the Republican party and to uphold the principles announced in the regular party platforms and carried out by the representatives of the party in their administration when in office. It is not to be expected, therefore, said the secretary, that any new doctrines will be announced in the platform or on the floor of the convention, but the old prin- ciples of the Republican party will, it is perfectly safe to say, be thoroughly and heartily indorsed. The administration of President Harrison and his cabinet in do- mestic afiiairs will be approved. The con- duct of our foreign relations will receive enthusiastic praise. The position of Speaker‘ Reed and the majority in the last house of representa— tives will be unanimously indorsed. The American people will be congratulated on - the enactment of a tariff framed on Ameri— ' can principles, and destined to bring to the United States the trade of the western hemisphere. Murdered His Son’s Housekeeper. ROCHESTER, N. H., April 21.——Kate Law- rence, who has for the past seven years been housekeeper for William McDufiie, has been murdered by the latter’s father, James McDuflie. Kate arrived at the house accompanied by a young man, both under the influence of liquor. McDuifie ordered them away, but the pair gained an entrance to the house, whereupon the Old man secured a shotgun and emptied the barrel into the woman’s body, killing her instantly. McDuflie was afterward arrested. He is seventy-five years old, and a farmer who has resided here many years. The Lawrence w omau is said to be well connected 1n Boston. BRIEF DIENTION. John Thompson, founder of Thompson’s Bank Note Reporter and also of the First National and the Chase National banks of New York, died at his home in that city. Rear Admiral Alfred Taylor, United States navy, aged eighty-one years, died from an attack of pneumonia, superin- duced by grip, in Washington. The new convict parole act of New J er- sey, which has just become a law, is amore sweeping measure than was generally sup- posed. The general belief has been that it applied only to prisoners convicted of the less heinous crimes, but an examination of the act shows that no class of convicts is deprived of the privilege. During a fire in Boston a burning rooi fell in, carrying with it the chief of the fire department and thirty firemen. They were all seriously burned and otherwise injured before rescued. Matthew Zuliand and Anton Lenize were instantly killed and Antonio Petru- cio fatally injured by an explosion in a quarry near Norristown while removing an unexploded charge. A report on the Panama canal has been made to the liquidator Of the company in Paris by Lieutenant Wyse. He advises six looks, with 11 single artificial lake in the center, and estimates it would take five years to complete it at a cost of 55120,- 000,000. The body of Alexander Dunn, the miss- ing president of the Dunn Hardware and Paint company, of Trenton, was found in the Delaware river at the mouth of Duck creek, a mile from Bordentown. According to Hon. Mark M. Pomeroy, Mme. Ann O’Delia Diss Debar is proba bly still in the land of the living, having gone to California 011 a pass furnished by Senator Leland Stanford. It is reported that a large number of the thieving 111-.1: -antry of Backka and Baval districts, in lurngary, are 011 their way tc America, having been driven out of theil haunts by the local police. ' Terry, One Cent “I DARE DO ANYTHING.” That’s What Jay Gould Says in Refer- ence to His Railroad Schemes. NEW Yonx, April 21. -—A special to The Tribune gives an interview had with Mr. Gould in Denver Mr. Gould says: “I wish to emphatically deny that I am seeking to disrupt the Western Traffic association. While I don’t deny that such a thing has entered my mind more than once, still it would not be policy for me to do so. Don’t think for a, moment that I am afraid to attempt such a thing. I dare do anything. The Sante Fe and Rock Island are often in print as very great rivals. It is bosh. N either one of these two roads dare make a move without consulting me. There will be no change in the present traffic ar-' rangement with the Chicago and N ortn- western, because it would not be policy. I am amused at reports in which my pres- ent trip is connected with that of the Van- derbilt party. They can 11ev er get control of the Chicago 11nd Northwestern. Mark that! It would not surprise me to have them build branches from the Canadian Pacific down this way some day.” Mr. Gould and party left Denver for Cheyenne, from where they proceed to the Pacific.

The Battle of Lexington Celebrated. BOSTON, April 21.—The exercises con- nected with the 116th anniversary of the battle of Lexington began in that town 011 Saturday, continued through Sunday and ended Monday night. Saturday’s exer- cises included the rededication of the old belfry, which has been restored to its origi- nal site on Belfry hill, adjacent to the battlefield. Sunday’s programme included special services commemorative of the day in the various churches in the morning, at 2:30 p. D1. 11 public meeting in the town hall, with an address by the Hon. F. T.

PAUL, April 21.-A terrific explo- sion occurred at the foot of Washington street, where the City Electric railways’ power house is located. John Johnson, a plumber, was working under one of the huge petroleum oil tanks, and, it is sur- mised, ignited the gas in the tank with the light he held in his hand. The tank, con- taining 14,000 gallons of oil, was blown to atoms. Nothing can be found of Johnson’s remains over which to hold an inquest. Another tank stands alongside the one that went 11p, and the firemen are en- deavoring to keep the flames away from it. All the electric street cars in the city are stopped. The Chicago Mayoralty Contest. CHICAGO, April 21.—Mayor Cregier will not contest the legality of the certificate of election if one be given to Hempstead VVashburne in the regular course of the still pending canvass of the election re- turns. The mayor stated this distinctly in the course of a conversation at his resi- dence. This sets at rest all fears of a pro- tracted lawsuit over the mayOralty con- test, and leaves simply the question wheth- er the canvassing board has a right to go behind the election returns. The Poisoned Wedding Guests Dying. LINDON, Ky, April 21.—Several of the guests who were poisoned at the Snooks— Herr wedding on Wednesday are in a pre- carious condition. Mr. and Mrs. William Mrs. Robert Grey and Mrs. Clar- ence Warren are slowly sinking. George Beacham, the colored driver, is expected to die at any moment. The groom and bride are seriously ill at the Burnet House in Cincinnati. Is the Mafia Omnipresent? CHICAGO. April 2I.—-—Officer Thomas Mc- Gin nis was surrounded and severely beaten by a crowd of about twenty Italians last night. One of them struck him a blow in the back while others grabbed his club. The mob then knocked him down, and after beatin g him severely ran away. The police are unable to assign any cause for the assault and believe the Italians are members Of a Mafia society.
